Chapter 2 Recall

Raina's POV

The rogues gradually began to lose stamina after Forty minutes of combat, which made it simpler for us. Together with their captain, the rogues began to withdraw. Despite the excruciating discomfort in my neck, I remained silent and didn't make any noise. I'm not accustomed to having a deep werewolf cut on my neck, though. I'll leave that to the doctor, but my arm also has to be popped back into position. I've never been a fan of popping bones back into position. At least not my arm, unless it's only a finger or so. That will hurt like crazy! But I need medical treatment now more than ever. Even if my neck wound isn't that deep, it still hurts.

Just when the leader, nearly fully cured, was ready to go. He continued to bleed. After turning around, he glanced at us. Probably at the Alpha of the future. With a look of disbelief, he turned to face him. as though he was acquainted with him.

"Kaden Samuels?" he inquired, grinning, as he stepped forward. Warriors take up attack stances close to the midnight blue wolf as the combat has ceased. "You know for a moment almost didn't recognize you," he grinned, and the midnight black-haired wolf-whom I now know to be Kaden-shifted to put on the shorts that were fastened around his leg. "Kyle Turner," explained Kaden. "So, are you aware of me? Alright. But do you recall Elena? The person with whom you professed to be in love? The one you were meant to shield? The person for whom you were meant to fight? Elena, do you still recall that? MY SISTER ELENA? "With a scornful tone, he yelled the final line at Kaden.

Naturally, I do recall her. She was - " The renegade leader, whose name I now know is Kyle, interrupted Kaden. "Nah! She wasn't. He replied, "You never showed her any affection," but Kaden said nothing. Kaden, keep this day in mind. I've spent years assembling this pack, and now I'm prepared to get revenge on her. You've merely scratched the surface of my abilities. He turned to face Kaden and stated, "I'll be back for you and your pack." I growled at Kyle without thinking, telling him to keep out or I would attack him, even though it hurt. He grinned as he glanced at me. "Before she bleeds out, you ought to take your little warrior to the hospital. Without looking away, he replied, "Wouldn't want you to lose another person you claim to care about."

In the space of a few seconds, they were gone, leaving everyone else relieved. Everyone's gaze was fixed on Alpha. Looking behind Kaden's back to where they'd stood before heading out. I believe he turned to face everyone after sensing their attention.

When he commanded, "Get all the injured warriors to the pack hospital now," everyone said, "Yes Alpha."

As he continued, "I'm not Alpha yet, so please call me Kaden," everyone exchanged hesitant glances before yelling, "Yes, Kaden."

To assist the wounded soldiers, everyone began to rush towards them. I'm so tired that I think I could pass out at any minute.

I turned to my wolf and said, "I could use some help here."

Not a reply

Fantastic. Excellent. I have to wait for healing for a day or two now. Even though I believed there were enough warriors to aid everyone without my assistance, I went to check on Uncle Ethan and assisted any warrior in need. Even so, I doubt that my shattered arm would be of much assistance to anyone.

I heard Kaden remark, "Female warrior," and I froze. Even though I wasn't sure if he was referring to me, I turned to face him. I winced, "Kaden," but continued to speak with my Alpha. He straightened in front of me and said, "State your name and rank."

"Mason Raina. "Daughter of Dr. Mariah Mason and Enforcer Ethan," I addressed him as he stepped toward me. With a worried look on his face, he added, "Well then, Raina Mason, thank you for saving me and I'm sorry that you had to get hurt because of me." "Kaden, no need for that Alpha. It's part of the job," I informed him. He gave me a nod, and I noticed that his eyebrows were knitted together. "How are you doing? Apart from the slash, are you okay? Were you injured before that? He enquired.

"My arm is just broken, nothing serious," I said, brushing it off. That's what I heard, I see. From across the field, I heard a female roar and bones shattering. I nod in agreement as he says, "Just by the sound of it, it sounds pretty painful." "May I?" he said, and I gave him a perplexed look. As he extended his hand to take mine, I noticed that his veins were becoming black. I understood his actions. He feels my anguish.

Alphas can ease others' suffering. They know how to do it when they have control. Should he be careless, he may erase all of my suffering, including the hurt caused by my rejection. He sprang away and pulled away.

I was handed my sword by a warrior who said, "Raina, I think this is yours." I accepted it with my undamaged arm and murmured, "Thank you." He gave me a nod before walking away, swinging the sword into my hand and putting it in its holster around my back.

He replied, "You should get that cleaned up," and I nodded before moving to join the others. As best I could for my condition, I assisted the others in carrying the wounded warriors back to the pack hospital. Fortunately, they were only hurt and not killed. The pack doctor, Michael, and a few others began tending to them right away. I remained at Uncle Ethan's side the entire time they were assisting with his recovery. "Rain I'll be alright. He responded, "Go and let them look at you too, but I wasn't leaving." I'm obstinate and say, "No, I'm fine," as though he didn't know. He yelled out to me, "Raina," and I turned to face him. "Go, I'll be alright. I'll be in excellent hands since your aunt is on her way. Please go check that out for me. He grinned and I sighed, "You know you have to before it starts to heal." I said, "Ok," and gave him a forehead kiss.

I ran into someone after leaving the room. Because of the state my arm is in, I winced when I felt the agony. It was Kaden, as I saw when I looked up. He said, "Raina," to me. I clutched onto my arm and said, "Alpha," to him. He arched an eyebrow in response to what I did.

"Why are you still not healed? Have you not been examined previously? He enquired. "No, I stayed with my uncle the entire time and helped out. He nods, and I move away. I asked the receptionist if any physicians were available. "But I was just about to go look for a doctor right now." I wouldn't be shocked if she said that the physicians were busy since we had a large number of warriors who had been hurt during the battle and not many of them were here. She instructed me to wait in room 302 and assured me that a physician would arrive soon. I'm in room 302 all the time. I have no idea why I even asked. Jake has been my doctor every time I've been admitted to the hospital, and I've always been placed in room 302. Since he constantly wants to see how I'm doing, I believe he has something to do with it.

For some reason, Kaden has been following me around ever since I left Uncle Ethan's room. "Is there something you need, Alpha Kaden?" "I only wanted to confirm that you saw the physician. "You appear to be the kind of person who doesn't seem to care if you're in pain," he remarked, crossing his arms over his chest. He said to me as I leaned off the receptionist's desk and made my way to room 302. "So I'll escort you to the doctor myself," When we got to the room, Kaden stood and I sat down on the bed, and we both waited for Jake to arrive.

After ten minutes

"I just mind linking a doctor but it seems like they're all busy due to the number of warriors they have so they won't be here for a while," Kaden remarked to me. I was simply sighing. "Ok," I said, getting up to approach the cabinet containing all the supplies I would need to clean this wound. "What are you doing?" He enquired. "I can't hold out for a physician. I responded, "If my wounds haven't already, they will become infected," pulling out the alcohol and shutting the cabinet.

Everything is now on the counter, and I've begun washing my wound. "You know how to use those things?" Kaden approached me and inquired. "I have some knowledge," I said. Gently, he pulled me back into the hospital bed after taking the piece of cloth from me. The only thing he said after placing the towel in my mouth was, "So do I." "Let's pop your hand back in place," Then, without suddenly, he snapped my bone back into place by placing his right hand on my damaged arm and his left arm on my injured shoulder. The anguish made me scream, and I believe tears welled up in my eyes.

That was painful!

My werewolf fangs pierced through the material and I felt blood on my lips, so it didn't help. When Kaden took off the towel and saw the blood, he apologized profusely to me. He murmured, "Sorry," and then started to clean my neck's wound. He remarked, "This is going to hurt," and then he put some alcohol into the towel and placed it on my neck. It was quite hot. I bit my tongue and clenched my fist to keep from shouting in agony. For the most part, we were silent while I watched him tend to my wound. I interrupted him as he began to tie the big band-aid over my wound. "A thing or two huh?" He grinned and showed me his dimples when I stated this while glancing at him.

That's adorable.

"Even though I intended to become an alpha when I was younger, I wanted to be a doctor. Not to boast or anything, but I finished medical school also at the top of my class," he laughed. "Why try something that you know is not gonna last?" My curiosity overcame me.

He smiled and said, "I wanted to do something I love before taking on the role of being Alpha." "I don't have the same freedom to select my career as the rest of the group. in particular, because I am an only child. I live my life in anticipation of that great day," he says, seeming dejected despite his grin. However, further inspection reveals that the grin is melancholy.

That's not how I always imagined things to be. I've always believed that Alpha accepted and was comfortable with their role as our leader. I was never aware of their wishes.

"How do you feel?" Pulling me back down to earth, he questioned. I said, "Um, better, thank you," grinning a little. I told him, "You would have made a great doctor," and he gave me a big smile in return.

Five minutes later, Jake showed up. Sorry for taking so long. One of the patients had an emergency," stated Jake. Then he got closer and found that my arm bones were back in place and the slash had been cleaned up. "Did another doctor come in here?" His face was plastered with perplexity as he inquired, his eyes darting between Kaden and me.

"No I just patch her up a bit," Kaden responded and Jake glanced at him, amazed. He continued without taking his eyes off of me, "But she's going to need some painkillers just to help her wolf heal her and she also needs a lot of rest to help the process."

"I confess I'm impressed by Alpha. I'll go get the analgesics and set up a room for her immediately. But in the interim would you like to make a report on this?" Jake questioned, and Jake sent him a brief, wide-eyed glance. "Are you sure?" He inquired gently, attempting to hide his enthusiasm I can tell. "You are the one who 'patched her up a bit " Jake responded and instructed Kaden to accompany him outside after he set up the IV chord simply for a check-up and to inject fluids in my body and all the work before departing with Kaden.

Now I'm alone in the room.

'Hey, are you fine there?' I asked Lizzy. That's her name. Lizzy.

No answer.

I sighed heavily and without a second thought, I closed my eyes and went to sleep.

'I hope you'll talk to me. I detest being in hospitals.

The room I was in with Kaden a few hours ago is where I woke up. I can go now that my wound has healed and I've had enough sleep. I didn't wait for Jake to give me the all-clear to go. Long hospital stays have never appealed to me. It only serves as a reminder that my healing has slowed down. that there is nothing I can do to stop my wolf from becoming weaker. Yes, Jake is upset that I'm leaving before I'm well, but I have to go. I took the sheet off my leg and got up. I stepped to the door after putting on my shoes that were next to my bed. An alarm went off as I pushed the door towards me. Leaning my head against the glass door, I sighed. I mumbled, "Well played, Jake," but I'm sure he heard me. I took a seat on the bed, stepping back from the door. I can see him grinning already.
