Chapter: 22
Who?
“I’m here, my dear, I’m sorry…!”
As I opened my eyes, I looked over and saw the IV in my hand, making me realise that I was in the clinic.
One of the things that made me considered weak, it took me a long time to heal, not as fast as a werewolf but not as slow as a human but still for werewolves it was inconvenient.
How long have I been here?
And those dreams…
Why do I feel like there’s someone accompanying me all this time?
“GWEEEENNNNN!!!!” The scream of a familiar voice made me turn towards the door and see my best friend Alice smiling happily before she ran to hug me.
However, before she managed to hug me, someone stood in front of her and I saw it was Alexa “The queen is still weak, you please be more careful with her, madam”
Alice was surprised and looked upset when she realised she was being called madam by my bodyguard.
I couldn’t help but laugh “It’s okay Alexa, she’s my best friend, she knows how to handle this weak me” I said jokingly but my bodyguard still looked serious even though she reluctantly moved aside and let Alice sit on the guest bench next to my bed.
“You’re finally awake” my friend sobbed as she took my hand and made me raise my eyebrows in surprise.
“How long have I been unconscious?” I asked
Alice was shocked “Fainted??? you’re in critical condition!!!” Now it was my turn to be shocked.
What..?
Click…
I looked towards the door where my parents and siblings had entered and looked happy when they saw me.
Was my condition that bad?
“Oh my God, Gwen, I’m glad you survived, my darling” My mum sobbed and hugged me tightly, then my dad patted my **ck with a smile on his face.
They really looked tired and worried.
“I’m sorry, mum, dad, I…”
“No, it’s not your fault, we were negligent” My father interrupted me “We should have understood your position by now”
My mum nodded and touched my face gently “Everyone knows you’re the king’s fated mate, the future queen so surely the king’s enemies will start moving when they hear that”
“You need to follow the king or at least be able to take care of yourself, Gwen” my brother, Ryan interrupted and I understood where this was going.
They’re worried because I’m weak, I don’t have a wolf so I’d be perfect bait.
