8. A Compromise 

AZURA. 

I awoke to a dull ache in my back, I was in a comfortable bed and I could smell a citrusy fresh scent. I frowned, opening my eyes and looking around what appeared to be a hospital room. The walls were a pale green, with the far wall being covered in forest scenery. 

I was hooked up to some drips. Sitting up, I yanked them off and slid out of the bed. 

Sunlight was streaming through the window that was open a crack, and I could hear the faint sounds of laughter and chatter from outside. I looked down, realising I was wearing a pale green hospital gown. My clothes. Where were they? 

I scanned the room, my heart leaping when I spotted my luggage and coat on the couch in the corner. I rushed over to it, wincing as a pang of pain rushed through my back. 

Oh fuck. 

What time was it? Or worse, what day was it and where was I? Where was my phone? I was about to grab some clothes when one of the two doors leading off the room opened, and a woman in a white coat with her brown hair pulled into a ponytail entered. Her grey eyes were full of concern when she spotted the empty bed, before she turned to me. 

“Oh, you‘re awake. Thank the goddess!” 

She placed the file she was holding down and came over. I stood up from where I was rummaging in my clothes, looking at the woman who was a few inches shorter than me warily. 

“Where am I?” 

“You are at the Sangue Pack, our Alpha Leo found you injured and brought you here. I‘m doctor Demiko.” She explained. Her words made my heart thump violently. 

Leo... 

The Sangue Pack, I almost clutched my stomach in panic He couldn‘t know. I had to keep this a secret. 

“How long was I out?” 

“Just for the night, it‘s not even noon yet.” “I need to make a call, where‘s my phone?” 

“I‘m sorry, there was no phone on you, but you can use mine.” She offered. 

I nodded and she took the sleek black device from the pocket of her white coat. 

Activating No Caller ID, my heart thumping, 1 quickly dialled Mama‘s number. 

“Hello?” 

I let out a silent breath, hearing her voice. “Hey Mama, don‘t kill me, but I lost my phone.” 

“Seriously Azura! We were worried.” 

“I know but you know me and phones.” 

For once I was glad I was a bit of a scatter–brained person with phones, because I was sure if I didn‘t reply straight away, they would have been worried. Mama sighed in relief. 

“Are you in Sweden?” 

“Yes Mama, I‘m just calling from someone‘s phone to let you know. I was so tired after the flight that I just crashed. When I‘m rested and settled in I will call you all, ok?” 

“Ok baby, thank the goddess you are ok. Get some rest.” 

“I love you.”
