All Chapters of Fated but Forgotten...: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

I saw the pain in the man’s eyes as he sat himself down on the bench next to me. Maybe I had said too much. He has been kind enough to bring me from the hospital today… maybe I should try a little to be kinder. What was that thing my grandmother used to say to me? Kindness costs you nothing? Something like that...No, I don’t think I would ever understand the reasons for him sitting my bed day after day since I had been brought into the godforsaken hospital, but, I would try my hardest to act like I was grateful. Because, it seemed, that me saying he did not have to had hurt his feelings. How can someone so big and so strong be wounded by words so easily? This man by my side was somewhat of a mystery to me, I have to admit.“There is barely a cloud in the sky today.” I said, trying to change the subject, and as I spoke, I turned my head up slightly to look toward the beautiful blue sky.Next to me, Rocco did the same thing. “Hmm, I guess. I do think it was forecast for a hot week.” I b

I had been enjoying Rocco's company, as much as it shocked me to admit it. It had turned out we could have a laugh, and chat quite amicably. But, once more, a silence had descended upon us. A silence that made me wish to be anywhere but here. Neither one of us seeming to know for the best what to say now, and for no real reason as to why. So, we now walked in that awkward silence after passing a house I had soon realized was his.I had been enjoying the little tour of pack, and Rocco had seemed to be enjoying showing me around too. Until he had pointed out this house. Then his whole demeanor appeared to change as I smiled politely and asked if it was his home. It made no sense to me that that could offend him, it seemed like a genuine enough question, but somehow it seemed to have caused an unease between the two of us, bringing into question why Rocco had even wanted to show me the house in the first place.Had he brought me here because he wanted to

The wolf stepped up from the space by my side. His sad eyes drifted over me as he did, before turning away. Was he about to walk away from me too? Had I not just told him how lonely I was? Did that not tell him that I needed him? Needed his company?Yet he continued to walk. His soft feet were padding along the forest floor as my eyes filled with tears. Before he suddenly turned, and began that now familiar process of shifting. The transition of his body from his sleek and strong wolf form into his toned human form. His fur receded from his body as his bones realigned. Such a strange sight to see, but one that no longer bothered me. I expected to wake up now, like I usually did by this point. I never saw my werewolf in his human form. My dream is always finished by now, but tonight, for some reason, it continued.Had my plea hit a nerve? Was he about to allow me to see him? Allow me to meet his human form? Excitement rushed through my body at the very

There was a glow coming through the thin curtains at my room window. They did little to shield me from the sunshine that was evidently shining outside. The sunshine instantly made me think back to my walk outside to bask in the sun with the Beta... my heart ached at the words he had said. That he planned to stay away. There would likely be no more visits out to the gardens whilst I remained in the hospital. This room would remain a prison cell... I sighed, rolling myself over in the bed with a sigh, trying to block the sun out.I found myself staring blankly at the wall, knowing that there was no hope of further sleep now. I had tossed, and I had turned throughout the night. Sleep seemed to struggle to find me. But visions of a vivid dream played through my mind. Had I been imagining it? Was I losing my mind? I had begun to wonder if that is what they wanted for me through them keeping me so isolated in this small and lonely room… were they slowly succeeding? Was I beginning to imagi

I had stepped from the shower, warm and refreshed once again. And in some new pajamas. My hair was braided by the lovely nurse who seemed to enjoy her time with me, and was frequently offering to sit with me to brush my hair, or simply sit and keep me company. It was something I think I may be more willing to accept in the future…“Ah, you look so much better, dear.” She smiled at me from the side of my bed as I sat myself down upon it, finding myself tired after the shower. I was finding that standing did seem to take it out of me more than I expected, so after a shower I often needed to rest, as ridiculous as that may seem.“Just tired now.” I smiled in response.“Aww, you always are, right?” she tickled at my toes. “If I could lend you my wolf I would. Give you a little boost.” She winked at me, and I found myself chuckling.“I could sure do with a boost. Maybe she could mak
