Beauty and The Beta (Bailey)

Chapter 0259

A nurse came from the room where Bailey was being treated to speak to the doctor as Eden joined me, having spoken to Marc and Morgan. I looked at the nurse, pleading with her with my eyes to let me know that everything was okay, as she spoke to the doctor. Eden squeezed my hand in an attempt to reassure me, but right now I don't think there was any hope of that. 'Try not to think the worst.' Eden mindlinked, as the doctor suddenly

came across.

"Beta, we have done all we can..." he began, Zion wailed heavily within my mind as it felt like my heart was shattering into a thousand pieces, while my heart began to race, thinking he was about to tell me my beautiful girl had gone. I could not face this again.

"No, doctor, please no!" I interrupted.

"Ash, let the doctor finish." Eden wrapped her arms around my waist as she looked toward the doctor, urging him to continue.

"As I was about to say, although maybe I should have put it slightly better, we have done all the treatment we can for the time being, so it is just a case of monitoring Miss West, and maintaining the treatment we have now removed the sedation, and hoping she regains consciousness. It is difficult to say how long this may take due to her injuries, and how weak her body is right now. She needs to rest, and most importantly recover. But, if you want to come and sit with her, you are more than welcome to."

I felt my body sag in relief as Eden nodded at the doctor. "That would be good thank you."

I felt myself weakened at the sight of her... she looked so frail... damaged... and I felt like I had let her down in not being able to protect her. I wish I had done as I had wanted, and gone to that wedding with her. Show that Miles fucking Davenport that she

to say for certain. It does certainly help for fated mates, but for chosen mates it does not always have the same effect. So there would be no way we could guarantee that. But, obviously, if it was something you had considered, then it

The nurse simply looked back at us awkwardly after my response and nodded as Eden continued. "We could definitely give that a try then, couldn't we, Ash? Just in case Bai can hear
