Those few days in hospital passed along all too quickly and it wasn't long before Izzie was making her way down to the reception to get discharged.
She clutched the paper bag containing her pain meds and her discharge note from the doctor in her good hand, while her other was strapped tightly against her chest. The nurse had to help her get dressed in the clothes that Jake had dropped off for her the day previous. The sling was too bulky and padded for her to manage, though she was going to have to adapt and quickly as she had to stay strapped up for six weeks while the fractures in her shoulder healed.
The clack of her boots against the floor was loud and confident as she walke

Contrary to the nerves she felt stepping inside the house had been quite anti-climatic. It was dark and quiet inside, but everything looked pretty much the same as she'd left it, if not a little tidier. Cassius wasn't anywhere to be seen, which was relieving and alarming all at the same time. All the curtains in the house were drawn and all of them were blackout curtains so the only light that was coming in was coming down the walls underneath the curtains. The only sound to be heard was the low hum from the fridge in the kitchen.

Izzie's jaw dropped as a stranger strolled into her kitchen. The first thing to catch her eye was that tight grey T-shirt that seemed to cling onto every hard toned muscle but leaving just enough to the imagination. The stranger completed his casual-yet-sexy ensemble with the classic blue levis and a pair of somewhat worn sneakers. His dark hair was unruly and looked like he'd just stepped out of the shower, and his pale skin had a slight sheen to it that backed up that theory. Finally, her gaze met his and she immediately saw a spark of amusement within those grey eyes as he realised she was gawking. She felt herself blush a little, but couldn't pull her gaze away.This stranger looked like Cassius, but it couldn't be Cassi

Loud.Everything was suddenly so loud. The thunk, thunk of the water hitting the bottom of the basin as it dripped from the tap was almost deafening and the chatter of the refrigerator was triple its usual volume. There was a low hum all around her as if she could hear the electricity within the walls. Hell, she eve
Beloved Huntress Chapter 34
The next week was one of the weirdest of Izzie's life. Her heightened senses had disappeared the morning after she had acquired them and her shoulder healed in precisely four days. Cassius had even been there to help her carefully remove the sling just in case. She had full movement back in her arm and if anything it felt a little stronger than it had before. The first shower she had had been absolute bliss and the ability to actually put on her clothes was something she wouldn't take for granted ever again.
