Rebel POV

Even though Dr. Hadley gave me the nerve block, I still felt everything she did. I felt the tugging, heard the breaking, felt the strange sensation of getting stitched up. I just didn’t feel the pain.
She said the nerve block would last another three hours. After which, I would start feeling pain again. I’m hoping Roxie will have me healed up before then.
‘I’m working on it Rebs.’ She says.
‘I know you are Roxie. You are the best wolf ever. I just hope I can walk out of here in the morning.’
‘I will do everything I can to get you fixed up. Our mate being here will help.’
I look at Austin. I can see anger in his eyes. He didn’t like seeing me on the surgery table. He growled when Dr. Hadley broke the first bone to reset it properly.
“Babe, this was necessary. It’s over now. I’m not in pain and Roxie is working double time to get me healed quickly. You being here is the best way to help me too.” I tell him.
“I don’t like seeing you injured. It’s making me feel helpless. I know it needed to be done, but I don’t you to have to do this again later, darling.”
I bring my hand to his cheek and bring his lips to mine. I kiss him lovingly. “I love you. I know this was hard for you to see, but I wouldn’t want anyone else in here with me but you. You make me feel safe Austin.”
He puts his forehead on mine and closes his eyes, inhaling my scent. “I love you, Rebel. There is a lot happening very quickly. I’m worried we may have done this too quickly and we may not have time to heal you. I don’t want you to be vulnerable. I will protect you. You know I will, but I also know you. If Kaden or Cullen bring the fight to us, you will want to fight, and I don’t want you to be injured just coming out of the hospital.”
“I will be healed before anyone gets here. I’m certain of it. I’m going to be fine. You said we will get through this and I am going to follow your lead with that, but this needed to be done and it was going to be done regardless. What I want to know, is what have we done to secure the hospital and all the security systems and patients? If someone could breach our systems and alarms, then it’s safe to say that we have a weak spot in our defenses.”
I say this to get my mate to focus. I don’t want him worrying about me. I will heal, but I was also forced to fight injured by my father. If I have to, I will and my mate will be there to support me as well. I trust him and I know that he will. But we need to make sure we close gaps in our security. That is the priority.
“You certainly know how to get me out of my worry state little mate. You are right. I am going to talk to Renz about our security and see what he can dig up.”
Just then my grandparents walk in and I take the opportunity to encourage Austin to talk to Renz. As he kisses me and leaves the room, I turn my attention to my grandparents.
“See? I’m good. I’ll be healed in no time.” I said smiling at them both.
“Thank the Moon Goddess that everything went smoothly.” My grandma says.
“You know we will be staying here a while longer until we can settle this issue with Kaden. I am bringing a third

of my warriors here. They are on their way as we speak.” My grandpa says.
“Grandpa, I really appreciate your help. I’m sure Austin will be happy to have backup. Our pack is strong and wealthy, but reinforcements can only help more.”
