I could see he didn't really like that, but I think he didn't dare to say a word. He saw that it angered me, and first of all I was his Alpha.
"Well, what are you planning for today?"
He changed the topic.
"I don't know yet."
I didn't tell her the truth that I had an idea which I was thinking about for a few days, but I knew Jason didn't like that at all, so I didn't want to tell him.
"I see. Well then, if you don't mind, I will leave now."
I nodded. He stood up and left. I tossed the letter on the table.
I let out a sigh. I knew what I really wanted to do, and that would make me forget about all of my problems. But I just wasn’t sure. Will I be able to get out of it if I start it? Will I be able to let her go after I can be with her?
I stood up and walked to the window. I looked outside for a few minutes, then I closed my eyes and clenched my fist. I gave up. I dressed up. And I arranged a carriage to wait for me.
I managed to get out of the castle without Jason noticing it. I sat in the carriage. The servant asked me where to go.
"To the hospital. "
Aurora - My Alpha
It was a long day again. I felt tired. Today I worked with the young ones. I taught them a few things. It was hard not to build emotional contact with them. Actually, I think I was the only one who found that hard. A few times I asked the others if they wanted to be my friends, but they just looked at me in disbelief. I explained to them what I was thinking, but some of them refused me. Because of the rules, some of them didn't even understand me.
They looked at me like I had asked an absolutely stupid question. Sometimes I think that it would be so good to know my parents at least. Wish I could know them. I often wondered who they were. I often wondered if I had met them already in the hospital. I counted it many times. My mom should have been 24 at that time, so she might have given birth when she was 25.
I was 20, so I looked at all the females who were around their forties, if I could see some similarity, but I never saw any.
My thoughts were on this while I went back to my room. I was about to go to the forest and let out Shiloh for a run. Since we met that wolf, I didn't let her out, and she was really frustrated. She wanted to run free. And I understood her. I organized my things, and I sat down for a minute just to imagine my Alpha.
I often daydreamed about him. I imagined how it could be to be hugged by his strong arms. I closed my eyes and hugged myself. I stood like that trying to remember his scent. I smiled at my thoughts when a knock pulled me out of them. I stood up quickly and I opened the door to see Sister Anne.
"Sister Anne?"
I was surprised to see her.
"Aurora, you have to come with me, you have a visitor."
I opened my eyes wide. I never had any visitors and Sister Anne looked at me weird. I had a thought, but I quickly ignored that. That cannot be. My voice trembled when I asked her.
"Sister Anne, can I ask who?"
"The Alpha."
My heart started to pound faster like it wanted to jump out of my chest. Just now, I felt that it was for real, and that made me confused. I wasn't sure if I actually wanted to see him. I was afraid it was going to break my heart. To see him again and breathe his scent in again is just going to give me another memory, and that is going to remind me of what I can’t have for sure, even if I want that so much. But of course, if he wanted to see me, I had no choice.
He was the Alpha, so I had to be obedient, and do what he said. I quickly checked my appearance at Sister Anne's while I followed her. The journey was long, but now I felt like it wasn't long enough. We stopped at the room. Sister Anne looked at me worried, but she nodded and stepped away, so I could enter.
I opened the door, and lowered my head, avoiding looking into his eyes. As I walked in, I saw his shadow. He turned in my direction.
"Alpha."
I called him and I bowed.
"Aurora."
He nearly whispered, and I was really surprised he knew my name. He didn't say anything else, and for some reason I felt the courage to ask.
"May I ask with respect why Alpha wanted to see me?"
I could hear him laughing quietly, which really made me surprised. I expected him to be angry, because I dared to ask him my question without permission.
He walked closer, and I felt my heart wanting to jump out of my chest. I felt I was in a daze when I caught his sweet scent.
"I wanted to ask you if you might know when I'm going to hear Noah again."
I felt frightened for a second. What can I tell him?
"I apologize, Alpha, but as I never experienced a case like this, I cannot tell you. Wish I could. "
"Then why are you so sure he is healing behind my mind?"
His voice was a little bit harder.
My heart started pounding again. I just felt that now, how stupid I was, I had the guts to feel for him. I couldn't tell him I knew that, because my wolf told me. I could feel my voice trembling.
"Alpha I studied a lot about it. Your wolf nearly died, and I know they are healing themselves like that."
“Tell him that he is there, and he can wake him up, but he's only going to wake up when it is desperately needed.”
