Chapter 182

182 Fractured moments … Ramsey I sat behind my desk , the warm glow of the morning sun casting long shadows over the stacks of documents on my table .

The room was silent except for the rhythmic scratch of my pen against рарет .

My concentration was broken by a soft knock , followed by Lenny entering my office .

Alpha , he began .

The doctors at the pack hospital just informed me that theyll be discharging Cassidy today I nodded , my eyes not leaving the papers before me .

They want you to use it on the person it was made for so that they would know if adjustments need to be made .

What happened to all the plans you made ? This was supposed to be your comeback path .

Why are you still hesitating ? Shes engaged to another man , Lenny .

Im not that stupid to break off their union .

Its over , Lenny He stood still for a moment , I could feel his frustration but he knew better than to push further .

Tine then , Ill go about my duties .
