The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

Her words are so heart breaking. She was sick but didn't want to tell me because she did want to be a bother to me. She only felt that way because of how I've been treating her ever since she showed up. I don't have time for her and even when we're together, I'm cold and distant... acting like I don't like being in her presence.

You have every right to call me when you're ill. It's my duty to take care of you in times like this. Please, don't ever do this again, okay?"

"Thank you. That said..." I gently put her hands back on her laps and heave myself up from the bed. "I'm taking you to the hospital right now."

"No!" She denies flatly, shaking her head and putting on a crying look. "No. Please no. I don't want to go back to the hospital."

"But you're unwell, Selena. You need to get checked up. We can't let this fever get more serious than it already is."

"I'm going to be fine."
