TAMMY
I could feel the sun burning in my face as I stirred and winced when I tried to get up from where I was lying. I knew that I had been taken to the healer by Vance.
That meant that he still cared about me. At least that was something.
That was the last thing that I heard before I blacked out. I closed my eyes and took my time to open my eyes slowly, then I took in my surroundings.
I was in the pack hospital, and I was expecting to be chained to the bed or for many guards to be with me, but it was quite the opposite.
There was no one in the room, to my greatest surprise.
“I guess I should have blacked out earlier than this,” I said to myself, then chuckled.
The door to the room was opened, and a woman walked in. It was the healer because of the surprised look on her face when she saw me sitting on the bed.
“You are awake!” she said with a high-pitched voice, and I winced. The effect of the silver wasn't fully gone. My head was still throbbing, and my vision was still blurry.
“Water.” I croaked out, and she went over and poured me a glass of water, then brought it to me with an eye roll.
“No one is your slave around here. I had to plead with the Alpha not to chain you up because you had to heal up, and that wouldn't do you any good,” she said, and I smiled at her.
“Thank you,” I said to her slowly.
“Drink that water and quit sounding like a dying frog.”
What she said made me pause in anger and look at her. If only I wasn't caught, she would have been under my feet, begging for me to spare her right now.
Doesn't she know that I am her Luna?
“Did I say anything wrong?” She asked me with a glint in her eyes. She was trying to provoke me so that I could end up back in that God-forsaking cell.
“Of course not. My vision is still blurry. I didn't do anything wrong yet, did I?” I asked her, and she chuckled.
“It's all good, child. Just take the water and rest well. You are better than before, so I need to inform them to chain you up.” She said she was about to leave the room, but I held her hand.
"Please, can you not do that yet? My head is still throbbing. I don't think I am really good yet.” I put on my best weak face, and she pushed my hand away from her.
“My son’s mate's sister was among the people that you killed. You are just alive because I don't have the evil in me to kill you,” she said with hate in her voice, and I was shocked.
How did she even know about the reason I was locked up? Did Vance already tell everyone about it?
I tried to open my mouth to talk, but she had already walked out of that room and then slammed the door behind her harshly.
