ALPHA ROMAN’S POV
It turned out her name was Sarena and she was a beta female from the Full Moon pack which was about thirty-nine miles away from us. ” We will send words to your family and let them know you’re here,” I said turning away when she grabbed my hand. ” Please don’t” she pleaded and my cold gaze moved to her hand which was holding my wrist. ” Why?” I didn’t understand why she wanted her family to worry for nothing. I admit she was in bad shape but she was healing just like expected. A few days would be okay to get her bones back to normal.” I don’t want them to worry, I promise to leave as soon as I recover”
” Find out everything you can about her and find out if she is telling the truth,” I told Vincent the moment I stepped out of the room and he nodded.
She will be in my territory for days since she didn’t want her family to know, I couldn’t risk anything.
The familiar scent caught my attention as I reached the entrance of the hospital building and I turned my head to the left side of the building only to see her standing with Zackery at the corner in front of Tony’s office. ” Are you okay?” I frowned as she looked down to her feet.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
” Did something happen?” I stepped closer and lifted her chin. ” I’m sorry she insisted on coming with me. ” My face finally shifted to Zackery’s, who had his head down. ” Come on” I grabbed her wrist and led her out of the hospital building. ” I wanted to help him with his mother” Shee pulled her hand from my wrist and I had to shut my eyes to calm my fucking wolf, if she continue like this I wouldn’t be able to keep my claws inside. Seeing her with another wolf wasn’t something I would be able to take. She was my fucking mate and I was the only one she was supposed to be around.
I didn’t want her around another fucking wolf.
” I know what I want to know, ” I told her but she didn’t seem to take it well. ” I just want to do something, help him take care of his mother I guess and I don’t think that is a problem” Yes, was a fucking problem, her stubborn expression made me frown.” He doesn’t need your help” I told her, Zackry has managed that for years. He has been taking care of her and at the same time doing his gamma duties. ” How do you know?” She was playing stubborn and I didn’t fucking like it. A growl left my lips as my gaze shifted to him. ” We can arrange a nurse for her “. I wanted her to let go of that topic for good.
” I wasn’t doing anything wrong, I was just helping Zackery out ” she explained and I stepped forward but she stepped back which made me frown more. ” I want to do something, I don’t want to stay in one place without doing nothing ” I didn’t like that she addressed him by his first fucking name. I seriously didn’t have the patience to stomach it. She would either obey me or I would fucking get her back to the pack house by force. ” We are going back and that is final, ” I told her and with a hurtful look in her eyes, she stormed away.
ANNABELLA’S POV
I left the hospital without getting to see her. I didn’t know when I would get the opportunity to go there again but I wanted to see her.
I shut the door behind me. I didn’t know what I was expecting to see but I was curious about her, I wanted to know how she looked or maybe who she was. ” Are you okay?” Madeline asked, dropping from the kitchen with a napkin hanging on her finger.” I will be in my room” I left for my room almost in tears. Why was I angry?
I didn’t know what was coming over me but I think I need to stop whatever I was thinking. He was the alpha and he could do whatever he wanted without asking for anyone’s permission. I get it but why did he have to interfere in my decisions?
He spent most of his time in the hospital leaving me alone in the house. I get she was his mate and I want to get angry with him for anything but he should at least leave me to do whatever I wanted!
Pacing back and forth in my room. I couldn’t think straight, something inside me was restless and it was making me go crazy.

” What are we having for dinner?” I asked as I stepped down the stairs. I wasn’t sure what I was doing. ” Are you going to help me?” I couldn’t say no. Besides, it was the main reason why I came down. ” What do you want me to do?” I washed my hands in the sink and grabbed a napkin to clean the water off my hands. ” Put this on” she handed me an apron and I gladly put it around my neck and waist. ” Cut the onions and the carrots. I will tell you what to do next when you are done” I picked up the knife and started cutting. I wasn’t an expert in the kitchen but I wasn’t bad at cutting. Watching Madeline do it every day was quite a saver.
” Do you need any help?” Madeline asked after a while and I shook my head.” It’s good to see you smile, dear” I didn’t realize I was smiling but I was glad I was.
” What else should I do ?”
” Steer the stew while I get these done” I did as she told me. I was proud of what I was doing, I was glad I had Madeline. Thanks to her I was learning pretty fast. It smelled great, I shut my eyes and inhaled the sweet aroma.
I was sure he would love it. He hardly comes around and I’m sure how he eats. I wondered if he had eaten anything since morning.
” Should I add the onion?”
” Do it slowly” I reached out for it but it slipped and dropped on the floor with a loud noise.
” Be careful ” Madeline reached for my hand and pulled me back gently. ” Are you okay?” She asked, looking at me with worry.
” You burned your arm?” She grabbed hold of my wrist. ” It’s fine I’m okay” I didn’t realize I had burned myself. Maybe it happened when I was steering the stew. ” No, it’s not, you have to sit, I will get you something to relax. “She left for the kitchen and came out with a glass of water. ” You should rest and let me care of the rest” she suggested and I didn’t argue even though I didn’t want to rest while the food was still unfinished but I guess it was the best way to not put her in a worried state.
” I will check on the stew. Wait I will bring the first aid” she said and I bit on my bottom lip.
My skin was red and I didn’t know how it happened. Madeline’s reaction was making me worried and I hated it so much.
Being in the kitchen was fun and I was glad I was able to be of help. I wanted to break out of my walls, and do things I have never done before.” Is the stew ready?” I inquired and she smiled before taking the chair beside me. ” Let me check on that. It looks pretty bad” she said. ” It doesn’t hurt” I lied, making a face.
” You have to rest and let me take care of the rest” Shee applied ointment on the burnt with careful movement.
I didn’t know why she was being unnecessarily careful but I was glad she didn’t listen to my lies.
” Alpha Roman will know you helped me prepare this food. Get clean up, I will call you when I’m done dishing his food.” Well, she found out.
I bit on my lip and left the chair.
I put on a red dress that ran down to my knees as I stared at myself in the mirror. I didn’t know what I was doing but I didn’t hate it.
