Cold. I felt so cold and scared when my eyes met with Liam's brown pools. With a shaky hand, I pushed his hand away and tried to sit up properly but pain shot through my body making me hiss. My arms were still hurting and I was taking a lot more time in healing because the damage he caused me was severe. Liam pulled the lever as he set my bed in a sitting position. I noticed the soft expression on his face as he came to sit beside me on the stool. My eyes bounced around the room and then at the door. I wonder where Jason was and how Liam got inside. I recalled he was there when I fell asleep. "A...April, I'm sorry," Liam said in a gentle voice and I refused to look at him or give him any response. "Please, forgive me. Last chance. Give me one more chance, baby. I love you, please," He pleaded, trying to hold my hand but I jerked it away. "I...I was drunk that night, April. Believe me, please. I saw you in Stella. I didn't know how that happened but it was a drunk mistake, please

A week has passed slowly and I've gotten much better in these past few days. My arms are almost eighty percent healed, I can do my work on my own. The stitches were removed. I started eating on my own as well. But still, the ache in my heart from losing my baby is like a fresh wound and no matter how much time passes, it seems this pain would never go away. Liam hasn't accepted my rejection yet. I had expected him to accept it sooner but he hasn't done that yet. And I haven't seen him in the hospital since that night. Jason never left the hospital after that night's incident when Liam had shown up. Jason has even instructed the whole staff of the hospital to let him know if they see Liam in the hospital. I can see he was being extra cautious, all for me. He checks on me twice every four hours. Even though I assured him that I'll be fine. He still checks on me from time to time. Making sure that I was okay and taken care of. He takes care of all my meals making sure that my food is

Jason was grinning ear to ear. This was the first time I saw him beaming like this and I noticed his grin was wolfish. It was so alluring and gave him such a charming look. I looked away abruptly when I realized I'd been staring at him for too long. His smile affected me in ways it shouldn't have as my cheeks heated up. But his offer to come along with him had given me expectations of a new life. A life where I'd be free and happy. A place that I could create only by letting genuine people into my circle. I could surround myself with positivity. It would be like a fresh breath of air without toxicity. "I...I... never told this to anyone but Capital university was my dream which got buried due to the pack's responsibility," I mumbled softly, fidgeting with my food and biting my lower lip. I looked up feeling his gaze on me. Jason was peering at me with a smile that held sadness as if he could feel my pain in his soul. His ocean eyes held so much warmth that they engulfed me. "I know

I was squeezed by two strands of aura and felt weak in the legs. Jason noticed this first, as he put away his aura and took my shoulders in a protective position.Liam froze upon seeing that, and also withdrew his aura. But he still had a reluctant look on his face. He ordered Sebastian to attack Jason in a hoarse voice, and I saw Sebastian hesitate and not move. Frea sneered in my head, ‘Does Liam think Sebastian is a fool? Everyone can see how powerful Jason is, and if he dares to attack Jason, then he is looking for death.’"Move!" Liam growled at Sebastian.Sebastian took a deep breath and then targeted me, "Are you happy with the situation? Why did you do that?" He asked coldly, staring straight at me.I shrugged my shoulders and said, “as you said behind my back. I’m an ungrateful person who rejected your Alpha, I don't even deserve to be called Luna and you don’t need to consider me since I won’t work for you anymore, then why are you asking me why since you already concluded."

With slightly wide eyes I bobbed my head at him. I grabbed the first-aid kit and made my way toward him. He sat in a way that there was enough space behind him so I could sit easily at an appropriate distance and treat him. I'm not good in this field but for now, something is better than nothing. I took a seat behind him on the bed and my eyes fell on his huge muscular back. He made me look so small, my eyes glided on the wound on his back made by Sebastian. It was bad. The claw marks were deep at the back and the blood was seeping out. My stomach churned as my heart felt heavy. Grabbing cotton I gently shifted closer to him and started cleaning the wound. He tensed when I applied some pressure and I instantly pulled back. "Which salve should I apply?" I asked him as he said the name in his hoarse voice. Taking the cream-like thing on my fingertips, I gently applied it to his wound as he hissed. It must be burning. Leaning closer I gently blew on his wound so it wouldn't burn much
