Lee gave me a sharp and unfriendly look.

I knew he didn’t like talking to people much, especially about anything more personal than medical issues. He’d made it obvious from the start that he didn’t like me all that much.

I didn’t know why and I never asked. His personal feelings toward me didn’t matter but I knew Lee had the information I needed.

He was a doctor and he was the only one that could give me answers about the Blackfire poison. At this point, I just wanted it out of me!

Soren kept jumping in to rescue me and I was too weak and too inhibited to do things on my own. I wanted to take care of myself and be able to protect Soren… not that he’d need it…

Soren was strong and powerful and I wanted to be more like him. I wanted to be useful to him, especially since he’d helped me so much and kept getting injured for it.

Lee had told me when he first started treating me that the Blackfire poison would dull my senses and my strength. Along with that, it would keep me from feeling my wolf and shifting, which meant that I wouldn’t be able to sense my mate.

Now that I was able to shift again and I was feeling drawn toward Soren, I needed to confirm if he was my mate…

Quickly, I shifted my thoughts, worried Lee would be able to read my mind or see what I was thinking on my face.

I couldn’t help it. When he kissed me just now… I felt so warm and happy. The way he tasted… how his lips felt… his arms around me. Everything felt so good and real. It was like he really wanted to touch me and hold me. It didn’t feel like a business proposition.

That kiss had been powerful and indulgent. No matter how much I tried not to think about it, I couldn’t stop wondering if Soren was my mate.

“Was there something you wanted?” Dr. Lee asked, arching an eyebrow.

I flushed, realizing I’d been keeping him waiting.

“Yes… will Soren really be able to travel tomorrow?” I asked.

“Soren is a strong shifter. His self-healing is a lot faster than most. Now that I’ve given him the right ointment to kickstart the healing process, he should be doing a lot better tomorrow,” he confirmed.

“Will it be safe for him to move? I mean… just because he is capable doesn’t mean it won’t be premature,” I pressed.

“He should be fine. It won’t be a problem. Now, if you don’t have anything else, I’ll–”

He turned to walk away.

“Doctor!” I cried urgently.

Lee looked at me and frowned. “Yes?” His voice was slow and annoyed.

I sighed and bowed my head. “I wanted to know if you could tell when the Blackfire poison will leave my system. I’d like to be cured as soon as possible,” I said.

“You’re taking the antidote, aren’t you?” he asked pointedly.

“Yes…”
