DemianRachel hugged me during breakfast.“Aren’t you going to eat?” I asked her.“No, I already ate earlier,” she replied.“I’ve been thinking about something all night, and I’d like to talk to you about it, Rachel. I know you don’t want to and won’t like the idea, but I would be very happy if you accepted Dana into our home until she recovers. The accident has worsened her condition and pregnancy, and she has no one to take care of her. I want to know what you think about Dana living here. It will be temporary. If we’re lucky, Jeremy will wake up and recover.”I looked at Rachel, scanning her facial expressions. I didn’t want her to get angry at my request. I spoke to her with love so she would understand. My situation wasn’t easy: I knew I brought these things upon myself, but I needed Rachel’s help. We couldn’t abandon Dana in the hospital and then let her go home alone.My babies needed my protection. Dana could take care of herself during the pregnancy, but she needed help.“Act
Dana This was too risky, and we didn't know how the plan would turn out. I began to doubt doing it because I was afraid we'd be discovered and everything would get worse. I mean, Thomas was a doctor at the hospital. He worked attending to other patients but was hired by Demian to have a trusted doctor. Thomas had the right to attend to me, but he couldn't discharge me, so his job here was at risk. But Thomas seemed willing to do it. I don't know why he wanted to help me so much. We barely knew each other because he joined Demian's pack shortly before Demian and I divorced. But he became loyal to me. I have to admit I was terrified to leave the hospital. If the other doctors told me I needed to rest, they had their reasons. They were doctors. They knew why they were saying it. I hesitated, but Thomas reminded me of the importance of leaving. Rachel would keep bothering me, and Demian would insist on the stupid and crazy idea of taking me to live with him. Thomas took me down the ha
Dana"It's that way. It's that way!" I shouted to myself, trying to push the wheelchair as fast as I could. Fortunately, the floor was slippery, allowing me to glide easily.I looked back and saw the security guards had fallen to the ground. Good, that would delay them and give me an advantage. I lost sight of them, and they lost sight of me. Thomas and I were alone, heading towards the exit.They told me not to put myself in stressful situations. But I didn't listen. Having security guards chasing us was a stressful situation. Thomas and I had to hurry to Thomas's summer house, or Demian would find us. I knew the doctor would call Demian soon. Thomas would stay at the hospital for a while, and I would go alone. Thomas couldn't leave at the same time I disappeared, as that would make him suspicious.Thomas opened the door. We stepped outside the hospital. The car was far away, but he quickened his pace. There was no one from the hospital outside. That was good for us."We have to be q
DemianMy hands gripped the steering wheel with such fury that I thought I would break it. The anger consumed me inside, and I had to be careful not to cause an accident on the highway. Rachel was beside me in the car, stroking my arm to calm me down, but her touch didn't bring me any relaxation.At the hospital, I confronted Dana's doctor. I glared at him furiously, walking towards him with narrowed eyes and clenched fists. The guy tensed up when he saw me. He knew what I was going to say to him."Can you tell me why the hell you didn't call me in time? How could you wait so long to inform me that Dana escaped from the hospital? Didn't anyone see anything strange? I hired another doctor to take care of her!" I shouted. I didn't care if people in the hospital saw me.Where the hell was her defender? Where the hell was Thomas? I needed to demand an explanation urgently.I felt angry with him. I know I fired him, but he promised to take care of her. Apparently, he hasn't kept his word.
Demian Rachel intrigued me, but it was Dana who truly captured my attention. However, I was momentarily worried about Rachel's strange behavior. “What’s wrong, Rachel? Why are you nervous? You check your phone every minute.” “I’m worried, Demian. I don’t know if it was a good idea for me to come with you. I’m a werewolf, but Thomas scares me. He’s been cruel to me. I’ll stay in the car if you don’t mind. I don’t want him to see me.” “Thomas won’t hurt you again, Rachel,” I assured her. That idiot was on my blacklist. I didn’t understand how he could do this. He denied having anything to do with Dana’s escape, but he lied. Thomas was covering for her. There was evidence against him. “But I’ll stay.” We arrived at a house I had never seen in my life. Thomas was part of the pack, but we were never very close. The police officers surrounded Thomas’s house. I got out of the car and approached the patrol car of my beta, the woman who took my report about Dana’s disappearance. Not ev
DanaThomas and I were about to have lunch. He had always come to see me after work and cooked for me so I wouldn't have to move. Thomas was a great man, and I know Jeremy would have been jealous, but he would have been eternally grateful that Thomas took such good care of Rachel and Demian.Two days have passed since I escaped from the hospital with Thomas. My stay at the house has been comfortable, but my head and heart have been in a terrible state. Being away from Jeremy and not knowing anything about him was killing me.Thomas said he had asked about Jeremy, and the doctors had the same news as a few days ago: he was in critical condition. Jeremy was still fighting for his life.Thomas had to turn off his phone to stop Demian from calling us. The pack members were on Demian's side, so we couldn't take any risks. I've lived in uncertainty for two days. Demian has been relentless these past few days asking about me. Demian wasn't foolish and knew Thomas was involved. Sooner or late
DanaI felt queasy almost the entire trip back home. My assistant drove me home so I could rest."Miss Dana," my assistant said. She looked at me through the rearview mirror of the car."Yes?" I replied."I don't mean to be intrusive, but have you had your period?"The question took aback me."Excuse me?""You missed your medical check-up, miss. You had an appointment with the doctor three weeks ago. And you haven't attended. You've been feeling unwell almost every day for weeks."My heart began to beat rapidly. I hadn't even noticed.My menstrual cycle wasn't regular, so I never worried about it. But with my assistant's words, something stirred within me. No, my period hadn't arrived yet, and it should have by now.I didn't reply and looked away.He parked at home, and I got out of the car, feeling too dizzy. I took a deep breath and tried to compose myself. My assistant left, and I walked towards the house.My husband said he had a meeting with businessmen at another company, but I
Dana When I woke up, I realized I was in my room. I had a horrible feeling upon waking up. I remember having a terrible nightmare about my marriage: my nephew was Demian's son. My husband cheated on me with my stepsister. I saw Demian standing at the foot of the bed. He was looking at me intently. There was something strange in his gaze. I noticed coldness, and I felt puzzled. Then, I remembered everything: My dream was not a dream. It was real. Demian did cheat on me with my stepsister, and she claimed that her son was Demian's. I hurriedly got out of bed. I suddenly felt dizzy and had to sit down again. My eyes searched for Demian's to judge him for his actions. "You!" I pointed at him. "I don't think it's time for us to have this discussion, Dana." "And when will it be the time?! You said you don't love me. You love her, and you've cheated on me with my stepsister in my own house!" "Soon, this won't be your house, Dana," he confessed. I looked at him attentively. Could he.
