“Fuck your brother!” He snatched my phone and it landed on the pillow. “Can’t you see you’re in pain right now?” Concern twinkled in his eyes. I heaved a deep sigh as he said, “I’ll drive you to the pack’s hospital right now.”
I grumbled, trying to push him away. But he just clicked his tongue and leaned in to kiss me. All of a sudden, my sleepiness vanished. I almost slapped him, but I thankfully managed to hold myself back from my palm landing on his cheeks.
“It was just a quick kiss, babe.” I rolled my eyes at him. He poked my shoulder playfully. “Are you awake now, my Sleeping Beauty?”
I turned away, wiping my mouth in disgust. “I’m hungry, Nathan.”
“Then let’s go to the pack’s hospital. I’ll buy you a sandwich on the way there.”

Arriving at the White Woods Pack’s hospital, we unexpectedly ran into Shannon.
And as expected, my Beta Nathan who had been gentle just moments before he saw her, instantly gasped. Forgetting I was beside him, he rushed over to Shannon, “What happened, Shan?”
The bitch who left him and was now back in his life smiled at him, looking past him toward me as if I was barely there.
Nathan even forgot that I’m hungry and his promise to buy me a sandwich is as good as a lie.
“It’s just a sprained ankle,” she sweetly replied.
“I see. My little sister here had quite of a burn on her arm so I brought her in for a check-up too.”
“You mean your fiancee?” Shannon scoffed, her face bright with a smirk.
She walked away from us before Nathan could say more.
Seeing her walking away with difficulty, my fiance didn’t think twice about scooping her up in his arms. He left me there standing, and I was forced to lean on the wall to refrain my body from collapsing to the floor.
“Let me help you,” he offered. Nathan turned to where I am. “Morganne, wait here for me.”
I blinked. And just like yesterday at Shannon’s welcome party, I was left all by myself again.
