The Wolf In Me novel Chapter 31

Part 1 Successful experiment

Lylah's POV

"Lylah, Lylah, hey," Melody said, waking me up into consciousness.

"Ah, my head. Where am I?" I asked with a wobbly voice, bringing my hand upon my forehead.

I realised I was on the cold floor, just before the stairs. My vision was getting stable again and that is when I recalled the moment I fell.

"Ugh, I'm sorry for scaring you. I need to go check out my arm. It hurts," I muttered, trying to gather myself up.

Melody helped me stand on my feet and walked me to the hospital. Thanks to the brilliant architect for making it connected to the main packhouse, it took a few minutes for me to arrive.

"Oh, for the love of Goddess, what happened to you this time?" The doctor said, turning around to close the door with my record file in her arms.

"I think I heard a cracking sound coming from my arm. It must be broken."

"Well, let's see," she said examining my arm.

"And your skin?"

"The wolf that attacked the packhouse came from behind me and scratched at me," I said, lifting my shirt with the healthy arm.

Melody was quietly listening to our conversation and I noticed her staring at nothing like she was in deep thought. The doctor patched me up, sanitized my wounds, corrected my broken arm tightening it up with plaster for me, then left Melody and me alone for a while.

"What are you thinking Melly?" I asked, watching her intently.

"I think," she started, then stopped for a moment before continuing the sentence, "we can use our magic to work our way into the scientist's building. I am sure it will help confirm a lot of stuff we still need to find out."

"Well, then you should go discuss it with the alpha, see what he thinks."

"Where is Nelly? I need her in this too. She is the only one that can make this happen, her being the only one that is not pregnant or injured. These scientists managed to injure the strongest of us, have you noticed? Like they know each and everyone who lives within these walls!" She took a few steps towards me and held my arms.

"This plan is going to be a good one!" She continued, now kissing my forehead, "I will be back!"

Watching her run out of the door I chuckled, thinking how energetic she gets whenever she has a plan in mind. I sighed, turning my gaze at the television that was on wolfpack news.

Nelly's POV

"It's now you and I crazy she-wolf. Tell me, why have you come here?" I asked, looking into her eyes as she was being treated behind bars.

She just stared at me in silence, looking traumatised, eyes dilated and her skin all pale.

"Here, wear these," I said throwing her one of my t-shirts and trousers as soon as the doctors left us.

She stared at the clothes on the floor for a moment, then looked me in the eyes, looking upset.

"What now? Don't tell me you don't feel the need to wear anything! Can you even understand me?" I asked, noticing how confused she was looking at me.
