The air hung still for a few seconds. Jasoft remained expressionless.
Slowly, I raised my head, my expression calm as I addressed Master Han, “I’m, not in a hurry. Treat him first. If we’re too late, there’s only the funeral home.”
Master Han:…
Even if the old man didn’t understand the complexities of bonding relationships, he wasn’t stupid.
He didn’t respond, instead sitting before me. He directed me to remove my shoe and place my foot on the small stool. Then he poured some medicinal alcohol into his hands and began to massage my ankle.
“It’ll hurt a little.”
“It’s fine. I’m okay,” I replied bravely.
My words were quickly proven wrong.
“IT REALLY…” My wolf’s expression twisted, its voice weak.”HURT LIKE HELL!*
I unconsciously gripped my phone, my breathing slowing.
I didn’t scream or shout; instead, the more it hurt, the quieter I became, the calmer my expression. Master Man, thinking I was truly stoic, applied considerable pressure.
In reality, the pain was nearly unbearable.
“Lighter,” Jason reached out to stop Master Han.
Master Han chuckled, “Look, she didn’t even yell. She’s a tough Werewolf! She’s fine.”
Jason’s wolf mumbled, “I WOULD WISH SOPHIA WASN’T A STRONG OMEGA.”
He would have preferred it if I hadn’t been so strong.
He’d have preferred it if I had cried and screamed, letting him know how heartbroken I was.
He’d only learned about it now, how well I hid my emotions; like I was doing now. But he knew my personality.
He remembered one year at the sports meet. I fell from a makeshift platform, my knee gashed open by a piece of metal. While getting stitches, I was pale and sweating profusely.
Later, he learned it wasn’t that I didn’t feel pain, but that I believed screaming wouldn’t lessen it; it was better to endure it silently. I’ve always been adept at disguising my emotions.
During the years we were together, I was gentle, considerate, and so good-tempered that he often forgot the coldness in my
nature…
His wolf let out a hoarse howl, tears streaming uncontrollably, “NOW, WE EXPERIENCED IT EVERY MOMENT.”
“Master Han, will my ankle be completely healed next week?”
I glared at Jason. Who needed his false concern and hypocrisy?
Master Han, “Rest it these next few days. It should be healed next week, but don’t twist it again. It’s already injured; another twist could cause serious problems, even bone damage.”
I smiled, “Yes, I’ll be careful.”
The one with the heart problems suddenly chimed in, “Just quit your job. Come back to Horizon Group when you’re better.”
Me: My brain short-circuited.

Timernally scoffed, but pretended not to hear him.
Master Han, seeing our interaction, guessed what was going on.
He wouldn’t interfere in a young couple’s quarrel.

After a while, he applied a medicinal poultice and bandaged my ankle “Come back tomorrow. Four days should be enough.”
“Thank you, Master Han.”
I thanked him, put on my shoes, and stood to pay.
Before I could, Jason paid, his speed astonishing us both.
