I reached out and grabbed Magnus’s sleeve.

“Of course not, Alpha Magnus. I’d never dream of pursuing the Iron Crown Pack’s princess. She’s my friend, and I’m grateful for that alone.”

With those words and a faint smile in my direction, Nathan left the hospital room.

My heart ached for Nathan. I knew he’d never thought of me that way. As my personal doctor, he knew everything about my medical history and what I’d been through.

“Why the long face? Don’t tell me you have feelings for him?” my brother asked.

I let go of his sleeve. “What? No way. But he’s one of my closest friends. He was the first person who helped me keep the truth from Kane. Remember?”

He perched on the edge of the bed. “That’s why I respected him. But as a guy, I can read other men pretty well.”

“Are you saying he has feelings for me?”

He laughed and pinched my cheek. “Who wouldn’t? You’re my adorable little sister.”

“Ow! Quit it!” I swatted his hand away, my cheek stinging from the pinch.

“Alright, alright, my bad. Now get ready. We’re heading out.”

Magnus stood up, his expression turning serious again. I wondered if all Alphas had such mood swings – they always seemed so cold and distant. Or maybe they were just more complex than they appeared.

After he left, Magnus sent in the head nurse to help me change into the new clothes his driver had
