“If I was allowed to, I would already be in her room,” I grumble. Laying my head on Ansel’s shoulder, I sigh softly. “Go see her so you can tell me how she is.”
“You got it,” Shiloh says, quickly coming around to give Bellamy and I kisses before he leaves.
“What about me, dick?” Ansel asks.
“You don’t need one,” Shiloh says with a smirk. “You already know I love you. Any more validation, and you won’t be able to get your head through the doors.”
“Cute,” Ansel says with a yawn. I can’t imagine they’ve been getting much sleep this week. “Go away, and close the door on the way out.”
“Aye, aye Captain. I’ll ask the nurses’ station to let you all sleep,” Shiloh says, walking out with Abbott.
My eyes are already closing as Abbott shuts the door behind him. This time, I sleep much better knowing I’m safe. There’s no one coming into the room, and my pack is together again under the same roof.
Even if that roof is a hospital.
Chapter
Thirty-Eight
One week later
BELLAMY
I’m crawlingup the fucking walls, and so is Winter.I hate hospitals. The doctor keeps extending our stay, and I’ve only been able to see Cassidy through the tiny screen of a phone.
I’m irritable and an angry omega.
“You look and feel like you’re going to explode,” Abbott says, his hands in his pockets as he observes Winter and I.
“I want to see Cassidy,” Winter says. “Actually see her!”
Abbott was already opening his mouth to offer another video chat and his teeth click together as he shuts his mouth. That’s probably for the best before Winter unleashes her frustration at him.
A rap on the door by the doctor has us all looking in his direction. Shiloh dragged Ansel home to shower and change, while Abbott has been going between both hospital rooms to check on us.
While I want to tell him to go home to sleep, I don’t really want to be left alone with Winter, either. Unfortunately, I’m finding myself very dependent on my alphas.
“I was hoping to give you two some good news,” Dr. Marsden says slowly. “Should I come back?”
Ha, he acts as if we’re fighting. No, this is just how we talk. It’s taken some time, but Winter and I are comfortable around our alphas now. If we’re unhappy with something, we’ll say it.
Especially since they can tell when we’re keeping things from them.
“No need for that,” Abbott says, leaning against the wall nonchalantly. “Please, go on.”
“Oh. Well. As you know, we’ve been keeping Winter and Bellamy for observation. However, they’re both healing very well. Therefore, we’ll be discharging them tonight,” the doctor explains.
They kept Cassidy under medical sedation to keep her calm for the last week, and I want to know when she’s going to be awake. Winter and I hold hands tightly as we digest that information, our beds still pushed together.
One of our alphas has been sleeping with us each night, but even we can agree that it’s not particularly comfortable.
“Thank you,” Winter says politely. I can tell that she’s not feeling very nice or patient. “When will Cassidy be awake?”
“We actually stopped the drip to keep her under sedation this morning and she just woke up.”
Abbott’s eyes widen, and his scent gets very smokey. I can smell it from where I’m laying, leading me to believe that he didn’t know this.
“Did she,” he growls.
