CARSON'S POVI had headed out after telling Anne goodbye but on getting to my car, I remembered that I had forgotten to take the reports of a patient I was to operate on that I had brought home last night to study so I headed back inside the mansion to get it.On getting to my study, I grabbed the report from the top shelf where I had left it and headed out locking the door behind me.When I walked by Anne's room, I also remembered that I wanted to ask her out for dinner tonight.Just the two of us.We had not really gotten to spend time alone with each other lately so I had planned a dinner tonight.All that was left was for me to inform her.I had to tell her now because I would be too busy later in the day to call or text her.However, when I got to her room, she was not there.Where could she have gone?I walked around the mansion trying to locate her and I was already starting to panic when I didn't see her.When I walked by Carson's office, I heard a noise and went in to see who
ANNE'S POVAfter Cadel walked out, slamming the door angrily behind him, I sank to the ground.It was like I had been sucked of all my energy.I never meant for Cadel to witness what had happened, I just couldn't help myself, I couldn't resist the fact that I wanted Carson as much as I wanted the rest of the brothers.It was just a feeling I couldn't control or get rid of but now I had ended up hurting Cadel."Carson you shouldn't have fought with him." I said, looking up at Carson who was pulling off his half ripped shirt down his arms.He turned to look at me, his eyebrows raised."So what should I have done? Stay still while he beats me up, hell no." He replied, bending to pick up his smashed computer from the ground."Now I have to get a new one." He groaned to himself."It wasn't his fault, He's was just mad." I said, getting up from the ground.Carson paused and looked at me intently, "Really? Are you really taking his side. You came on to me and seduced even when I warned you n
ANNE'S POV"Anne you're shivering." Cam pointed out when he noticed me trembling. Truly my teeths were chattering but it was not due to the cold but because of fear and it kept growing as time went on.It had been four hours since Cadel was wheeled into the operating room and there was no sign of it ending soon.Some nurses had rushed in and out several times and I had tried to stop them to ask about what was going on inside but none of them had replied.All they had said was for me to be calm.But how was I supposed to remain calm when I didn't even know if Cadel would live or die.My guilt was threatening to eat me up and despite all Cam had said to me, I could not help but worry.My brows were tightly furrowed together and I clenched my jaw tightly to stop my teeths from chattering.Cam took off his jacket and covered me up with it then stood next to me, one of his knees raised against the wall to support himself.After a while he pushed himself off the wall and turned to me."Wou
ANNE'S POVBy the time I woke up, it was already the next morning.The first thing I saw when I woke up was Carson sitting next to the window.His eyes were closed and his slender legs were crossed carelessly.The hospital ward smelled like drugs and antiseptic but there was also a subtle fragrance, not the pungent smell of perfume but a cool minty lavender fragrance.The scent was from Carson, I recognized it as the smell of his bodywash.I inhaled and exhaled a few times, my nose was stuffy and clogged probably from me kicking off the covers while I was asleep.I got up quietly and grabbed the blanket Carson had covered me with the night before and carefully folded it before walking up to the bed where Cadel laid.Just like yesterday, his face was peaceful and he showed no signs of waking up.His clothes had been changed and I guessed that was Carson's work, he must have done that while I was asleep.I brushed his hair nearly with my fingers and pulled the covers even higher on him.
ANNE'S POVI sat in Cadel's room for a while trying to get my thoughts together before heading to mine.When I got to my room, I took my bath and got dressed before heading down to the kitchen to get something to eat."Anne I had no idea you were back." Lydia cried out the moment she saw me walk in."I just got back a while ago." I replied, moving to sit on the stool like I usually did."How's Alpha Cadel? Are there any improvements ?" She asked quietly and I shook my head."Oh dear, I do hope he will be fine." She said, lowering her head and clasping her hands together in prayer.I sighed in response and she looked up at me."Are you alright? This must have taken a toll on you."She asked, concern etched on her face.She walked forward and grabbed my hands over the kitchen counter and I looked at her, melancholy seeping from me like rain from a leaking roof."I am, I'm just worried about him." I said in a low tone."Don't be worried child. The Alphas have been through a lot since they
ANNE'S POVBella was by the entrance to the mansion and she seemed to be waiting for someone.When we got close to her, she curtsied"Alpha, Miss Anne good evening.""Alpha Carson and Miss Nicole are in the dining room waiting to have dinner with you. I was told to inform you." She said and we nodded in reply.Weren't Nic and Carson supposed to be headed to the hospital?They were supposed to take over by 7pm which was why Cam and I had left, knowing they would be there.Nic and Carson were already seated at the dinner table when we walked in.I took my seat beside Carson while Cameron sat next to Nic."Aren't you both supposed to be at the hospital?" I questioned immediately I sat down."We know, we just decided to take a break." Carson said as he passed me a bowl of soup."But no one's staying with Cadel." I cried out attempting to get up but Carson pressed my shoulders down with his one free hand."Relax Lydia has gone over to the hospital to accompany him. She offered to so we co
ANNE'S POVThe next morning, after I woke up, I headed to the hospital.This time, I was all alone with Cadel.Cam had left for work, so also Carson while Nic was down with a cold.I had entrusted her care to Lydia this morning, I had offered to stay with her but she urged me to go stay with Cadel.On getting to the hospital, I took my seat on the sofa and dropped my bag on the small table in front of it.I brought out my spread of bacon and eggs sandwich, preparing to eat.I had not waited to have breakfast at home this morning but had instead packed it along to the hospital."Cadel do you know Can gave me a job in his publishing company. I'm so excited." My voice rang out loudly in the room.Whenever I was alone with Cadel, I liked to do this.It made me feel like I wasn't lonely whenever I conversed with him even though I would get no reply."Carson was so surprised when I told him. He must have thought me a good for nothing who just wants to mooch off you guys and I admit I am."I
CADEL'S POVI could feel myself drowning but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't get to the surface.The water surged around me, pressing me down even more and I struggled to breathe.Was I really dying?Just then, a ray of light pierced through the deep depth of the waters, calling out to me.A voice surrounded me, filling my ears and blocking out any other thoughts and I desperately tried to get towards the ray of light when I realized that the voice I was hearing was Anne's.After much struggle, I finally got close and the rays of light enveloped me.My eyes fluttered open and the bright room immediately stung them so I closed them back again and tried to open them slowly so I could adjust them to the light.After a short while, I finally opened them and the first thing I noticed was Anne sitting on the sofa across the room.Her head was lowered but I could still hear her voice.She seemed to be talking to me.I opened my mouth and after what seemed like an ardously long moment
