Mated To The Lycan King

Chapter 76

I was feeling depressed. I looked over at Everest as he was walking out of the room and talking with the doctor. The door closed as I listened to them both discussing my treatment at home, walking away from my room. He was ready to have me back home and, honestly, I was ready to be back home, in my own bed, in our room. The doctor said that I was practically fully healed but still needed rest, seeing how my beast was still weak. She didn't talk much to me as she was still mourning the loss of our pup. I felt my eyes sting with tears as my hand rested on where our pup should be growing inside of me. I sighed and laid back, pulling the blankets over me.

I buried my face in my pillows, trying to stifle a sob without success. I cried, really cried, hard, big tears streaming down my face and soon my pillow was soaked. Then I became angry, more angry than I have ever allowed myself to be. My precious pup's life was taken away from me.

Everest walked into the room and rushed to my side of the bed. He was worried, I knew that much. I did not make an effort to move to look at him. I didn't want him to see me like this, weak and struggling.

"Are you okay?" When I did not answer him, he pulled the blanket back away from my face. "Oh, my love." He laid down on the bed next to me and held my body close to him. He didn't say anything to me, just held me. I soon drifted off to sleep in his arms. I was in such a deep sleep I did not feel him move away from me and leave the room.

I woke up a few hours later to the smell of food filling the room. I sat up in bed and looked at Everest who was getting everything ready on the tray. "Hi," I said softly, and he looked over to me with his most handsome smile.

"Hi, my love. Are you hungry?" He motioned to the food he was in the process of plating.

"I am, what are we eating?" I asked and scooted to a more comfortable position.

"I went to get some fajitas with chicken, steak, shrimp, and chorizo, chips and salsa with queso. I also have rice and beans along with all the fixings for making your burritos. I didn't know if you would like to have flour or corn tortillas so I had them put both in there." He smiled at me.

My mouth was watering as he talked and I looked at all the food. My stomach growled and I could not wait to start digging in. Hospital food absolutely sucked and they had me on a strict diet to help with healing and help Charlotte regain her strength slowly. What was supposed to be only one meal of broth and other crap turned into a few days. We ate the food together and it was glorious. I ate until I was full and watched him clear everything from the small rolling tray table.

"What is the plan?" I watched as he settled in the bed next to me.

"The plan to get you outta here?" He looked over at me.

"Yes, that and what are we going to do about Dexter?" I sighed.

"You should be released tomorrow. Free to go home. You can not, however, do too much. Your Lycan still needs more time." He told me.

"Can I train in my human form? My magic?" My brow rose to look at him.

"Well, I assume you can as long as you don't force a shift." He shrugged his shoulders some. "I will, of course, need to get clarification.

"Okay." I dropped it as he turned on the television in the room. We would deal with Dexter when we found him.

"You have a lot on your mind," he commented.

"Yes," I said simply.
