"You've been healed," I said simply.

He glanced down at his body before nodding.

"My wolf worked all night to heal my wounds," he explained. "I'm an Alpha; we don't stay injured for long."

I nodded, thoughtfully.

"I see," I said, keeping my bottom lip between my teeth. "Where are you off to this morning?" I found myself asking.

"I am training with the warriors and Alphas this morning," he answered. "We are preparing ourselves for any future rogue battles so injuries like yesterday don't happen again." "Will Shirley be there?"
