I lay in my bed, the doctor still talking to me, explaining the treatment they had given, but | was barely listening.
My mind was on the fact Asher had stormed so angrily from my room. My eyes found themselves frequently
drifting to the door in the hopes he would return. | couldn't help but wonder if he had been about to actually tell
Right now it seemed he didn't want to be here. | felt numb. | don't know if that was from my injuries or from the
pain | felt from what had just happened with Asher, and without the ability to mindlink him, | had no way of
reaching out to him to check he was okay.
"Are you okay, dear?" the doctor asked, interrupting my thoughts. "I am sure the Beta is fine. He is known for
being a little tempestuous. Has been since he lost his mate. They do say losing a mate can destroy a man, and |
think with Beta Asher it truly did. But, | wouldn't worry. He soon gets over things, and is back to his ever-
charming self." The doctor was smiling at me. Yeah, that sounded like the Asher | had first met. But not the Asher
| had cto know. The Asher that had been opening up to me...

"I will be fine. | think I just want to rest." I lied. | just wanted him to go. Leavealone. The doctor nodded in
agreement, when suddenly we heard a commotion out in the hallways. The doctor's eyes narrowed in confusion,
before his eyes met mine.
He quickly stood and walked toward the door. “Letgo and see what is happening. There should not be that
amount of noise in the hospital.” "You are not fit to see her!" | heard Asher's voice roar, and | had a sinking
feeling | knew exactly who he was yelling at. | felt sick at the prospect...
But, the doctor, who had just
reached the door of my room, turned
to look atwith an awkward
smile. "Well, | think we may have found the Beta." And with that he excused himself. Yes. We had found Asher.
He had gone to deal with the worst possible scenario. Mites had arrived to takehome, and I could only
imagine the arguments
happening right now...
“I am her mate. Her upcoming Alpha. Who is more fit to see her if not me?" the voice of the one person | did not
want to see again, who was loud and confident in standing up to Asher. This was definitely not going to end well.
"You are not her mate, you fucking
fet
fool. You rejected her. That means you are done. She isn't yours. You don't own her." Asher's voice was the
angriest | had ever heard, and loud too, despite the fact | was listening through the walls of my room. | hated
that the whole of the hospital were likely listening to their conversation right now. We'd be the pack's source of
gossip for the next few weeks, no doubt...
"Well, she sure as hell is not yours, or this pack's." Miles growled.
“Enough!” | heard a third voice, one | am almost certain was Alpha Caleb. He sounded pissed off. Extremely
pissed off. “This back and forth is getting you nowhere. Miles, you chere for a reason, so get it over with."
He snapped.
My heart sank as | realized what his words meant. Alpha Caleb had allowed Miles into the pack. He had let him in
to takehome. | had hoped he would offerprotection, but it seemed he was standing by the pack
protocols here...
Suddenly, the door swung open, and
Asher rushed in, his eyes darting to
meet mine.. Are you okay?" he asked, and | nodded slowly, as he joined me, at the edge of the bed, taking my
hand in his. "I'm sorry for rushing out. | heard he had arrived" he mumbled.
