67 Black hearted Cassidy …

Ramsey

I opened the door of my bedroom , finally letting the façade of smiles I’d had on my face all day .

I’ve just come from my grandfather’s ward in the pack hospital , he’s doing well at least .

Although he’s still unconscious which the doctors said was due to the deep bites from the Ferals and the heavy treatment done on him afterwards but he’ll be awake soon .

As I entered my room , the sight of Cassidy pacing near my window made my blood boil with frustration .

As if living every day with her in the same packhouse wasn’t torture enough .

I wasn’t in the mood to deal with anyone now especially not her .

I crossed the room without acknowledging her as I began to undress .

I started with the buttons of my shirt , though they felt particularly stubborn tonight .

Finally , I slipped out of the shirt , tossing it onto a nearby chair .

“ Ramsey ,” she finally spoke .

“ How is your grandfather ? I tried to visit him earlier but they wouldn’t let me in .

I moved towards the dresser and busied myself with removing my rings and placing them carefully on the ring plate .

I picked up my discarded shirt and threw it into the laundry bin , putting enough distance between me and her .

Anything to make sure she doesn’t come close .

“ Ramsey ? ” she queried .

“ I asked the hospital staff and the guards on duty outside his ward not to entertain any visitor , I said flatly .

“ At least until he’s recovered .

He’s not in the best shape right now .

It’s better if people don’t see him like that .

“ Sure ! ” Cassidy nodded “ I understand .

“ And what of you ? How are you holding up ? I heard that Alpha Logan died .

“ I’m fine ! ” I said with a clipped tone ” A lot of people died that day , Cassidy .

Alpha Logan was just

one of them .

As I talked , I busied myself with arranging my things hoping she would take the initiative and leave .

We both fell silent before she cleared her throat and turned to me .

I could feel it coming – the conversation I’d been avoiding for months .

“ When are we going to get married , Ramsey ? ” she asked with a level of gentleness that had never been associated with her .

“ It’s been four years already .

I fought the urge to roll my eyes as I walked towards my bed , arranging the items on the side .

The last thing I wanted to talk about right now was our marriage .
