The doctor threw me a wary look and then shot a hesitant look at Callahan.

He only shrugged, “Well then leave some pain meds for her. If she feels like it, she will have them.” Saying so, he walked out of the room without another word. Meanwhile, Elijah came to sit beside me. “You are going to be fine, you are strong.”

I nodded my head and he squeezed my hand before muttering, “I will come check on you shortly”

Matteo gave me a nod and left while dragging Drusilla along with himself.

The other servants left too leaving just Maria with me.

“Would you like to eat something?” She asked but I shook my head.

“No, I would like to rest a little.” Maria cupped my face and replied, “Sure, if you need anything just ring the bell”

After she walked out, I let out a sigh and decided to calm down. The pain in my body was not that much or maybe my body had developed a certain tolerance after going through so much pain.

And now that I was alone, my mind kept replaying the whole day of the time spent with Callahan and how he was behaving,

with me.

But despite his frustrating behavior, I realized that my wolf was trying to contact me, to help me heal.

That meant she had not completely abandoned me.

I just did not know how to reach out to her. I was willing to endure the pain if I would get to meet her. I could not stand being weak and helpless anymore.

“Please, if you are listening to me…know that I want to meet you as much as you are trying. I promise I will get strong”

I said to myself and closed my eyes. The silence in the room was deafening and it was unlike the influx of all the smallest noises bombarding my brain

I wanted to sleep but it was evading me. Not knowing what to do, I picked up my phone and was surprised to see a message waiting for me.

It was from an unknown number.

I opened it and checked the text that said- Hey, Ham Harry. Did you reach home safely?

I immediately replied, Yes, I did.

The message was sent a few hours ago and I kept staring at the screen hoping to receive a reply.
