Chapter 45
Winter POV
f**k, where am I? I’m slow to open my eyes, feeling pain shoot through my body with every movement. I stare at the white washed walls and the hospital gown that I’m wearing. What the hell happened to me? Damnit, Kai has a lot to answer for, I grumble to myself, annoyed.
We lost the fight with another wolf. Don’t you remember Winter?
Ouch, guess that’s why I’m in so much pain.
We look good in a hospital gown though, totally rocking it.
You always look on the bright side, Sabriel.
Guess what? Kai was the one who brought us here.
Don’t get your hopes up Sabriel. He only did it because we needed medical attention. I told her bitterly.
After all, he’s the reason we’ve ended up in the hospital in the first place.
I blink against the bright light and try to sit up, causing machines to start beeping. Damnit. A man in a white doctor’s coat comes running in, stopping short as he sees I’m awake. I looked at him hopelessly and motioned
towards the machines with an apologetic glance.
“Calm down” he murmurs to me and I stop wriggling around. “Let me get those needles out of your arm”, he adds, and I flinch as he begins to do just that. God it stings.
“Sorry” he apologises. I just nod. I want out of this place. The sooner the better. Besides, I have omega duties to
take care of.
I read his name tag. It reads ‘DR JAMES.’ He seems like a nice doctor and I relax somewhat. At least he has a good
bedside manner.
