MasukSpencer POVA gentle knocking on the door wakes me up, using all my strength I try to straighten up from the angle I moved into while I slept.“Spencer, let me help you with that.” The nurse says as she closes the door behind her.Together we adjust my torso so that I am straight in the bed, once I am comfortable, she grabs the remote connected to the bed and moves the head end of the bed up. She stops when I am appropriately sat up to what the surgeons allow.Before I can say anything, she presses a button on the machine which send a cool liquid down into my cannula. I know that it is pain medication before she tells me. What I didn’t know, was that I am allowed to press it myself every 4 hours. “Right, plans for the day. The surgeons are going to come up and assess your bandages and talk to you about the possibility of removing your back brace. Don’t worry, they will take your comfort into account when discussing removal. We are not in any rush to discharge you but once they give t
William POVAfter Spencer announced that she would be doing the test, Ashton practically jumped on her to say thank you. Thankfully, he did have the good sense to not move her too much given her injuries. We all began to leave when I heard Spencer call out for me, I turned around and she asked me to stay. My heart sunk to my feet, this is where she tells me that she is unable to forgive me. I quietly shut the door and take the seat that mother had been in, it was still warm so it was like she was here holding me through the conversation.“How are you?” She asks, bringing her mug to her lips.My eyebrows shot up, surely, I should be asking her that. But no, of course my dear Spencer, my perfect mate, was worried about me.“I’m guessing no one has asked you that since the incident.” She continued as I stayed silent trying to figure out what to say.“Honestly, I just feel an overwhelmingly guilty and full of regret. Why did I trust Mars to behave, why did I only ask Ash to protect you w
Spencer POVI could hear my heart pounding in my ears, a fresh wave of pain medication felt cold as it came through the cannula in my wrist.“You’re joking right? Please tell me this is a bad joke you guys came up with to entertain me?”I looked around the room, hoping to see a small smile appear on anyone’s face. They all looked at me with a serious expression, not a glimmer of amusement on their faces.“Spence, he is being serious. He told us everything and nothing we said could talk him out of it.” William said looking me in the eye.William spoke with authority, but his eyes were giving him away, he wasn’t sure if he believed Ashton but was backing him up regardless. Even though I was medicated, I could still feel slight pain in my leg and back. Almost as if a part of my body was not ready to see him and made me feel the pain more intensely to remind my heart that I had not forgiven him.“So, you really believe that we are siblings? That I am your supposedly dead sister?” I asked
William POVAll eyes darted to me as I got their attention, the guy who whispered looking sheepish as I looked at him. Mother, Ash and Olive were sitting at the table eating their stew, letting me stand alone like only an Alpha is able to do.“First of all, I do not have anger issues. What happened to Spencer was horrific and unfortunately there is nothing I can say or do that will take us back in time.” Feeling my voice begin to crack, I paused to remain strong.“Secondly, only Ash, Spencer and myself know exactly what happened in that field. In time you will all know but for now it is a need to know basis. Finally, I will not tolerate any jokes or comments about anger issues, injuries or anything related to what happened. That includes anything that Spencer is going through, her healing correctly is top priority.”Once I had finished, I sat down and began eating my stew. As always, Donna nailed it and it was the comfort food that we needed. Eventually, the noise in the dining hall r
William POVTaking a few seconds to fully take in what Ashton had said my mind started racing. Did Ashton really think that my Spencer was his sister? “Ashton honey, what make you think that?” Mother asks, her brow furrowed. “She told me that she grew up without her father, in fact she never knew him but she had a feeling that he was her mothers mate. Her mother didn’t date anyone after him, that added to the fact her eyes are a mix of theirs. It all adds up.”Olive gave him a skeptical look before speaking.“But her mother was a single mother, from what we know of her childhood, they were struggling to get by. Her mother probably put all her energy into raising her daughter alone, she probably didn’t have time to date, or she didn’t want to introduce a random guy to Spencer” “Did you tell Spencer this? Because if you’re sure then the only way to confirm would be to do a DNA test.” I added, a selfish part of me hopes he is right so Spencer has a reason to stick around if she refuse
Spencer POVAfter our talk Ashton gave me a weird awestruck look and abruptly left. Why did he think my eyes were like his mothers and father? Surely if they died when he was seven then he wouldn’t truly remember what they look like.The doctor came to my room and gave me a full list of what injuries I had sustained and what they did to fix them. One thing that he said that the nurse did not mention is that at one point I had flatlined on the table and they had to do CPR and shock me to bring me back.He did say that my injuries were extensive and only time will tell if I have any lasting damage. However, due to the fact I woke up earlier than expected is a good sign. The leg that the bone broke through required them to use internal fixation to stabilise it. Seeing my confused face the doctor explained that they used metal to stabilise the bone and aid in its repair.They also had to do surgery on my spine, but he did not go into detail about what they did. He was hopeful that I will
Spencer POVThe doctors leave the room after what feels like a life time. Shortly after them followed the nurses. They all looked puzzled at why Williams alarms were going off. Though finally, we were alone.During his medical interventions Williams hair had fallen into his eyes. I gently moved my
William POVLooking over my own hospital room was strange, I could hear everything they said but no matter what I did they can’t hear me. Watching Spencer and my mother embrace warmed my heart, knowing that mother has accepted her meant more than I realised until now. Then when Spencer is holding m
Spencer POVClearing my throat to get his mothers attention, she looks up and for once she is not looking put together. Her face is blotchy and her eyes are puffy and red rimmed from tears. She looks back at William before pressing a kiss to his hand and letting go to pull me in for an embrace. “T
