Kylie's POV."Kylie!" Maggie cried out angrily when the doctor's head hit the wall, she struggled to get up from the bed, "What is wrong with you?" She looked me in the eye, glaring at me."You Whore!" I cursed at her. I regretted saying those words immediately I said it. She turned around to look at me, Maggie hated words like that and it must have hurt her that I would use words like that on her but I just couldn't control myself, I was angry at everyone and at everything. Even more angry at her for faking her illness.She stood up from the bed, clutching the blanket to her chest, oblivious or unconcerned about the fact that from her waist down, she is naked. She held the blanket tightly, pulling it out of the bed and onto the floor, it trailled behind her as she moved towards me quickly, before I could open my mouth to apologise for what I had said, she slapped me across my face.The doctor who had recovered and was busy poking at his jaw in pain, gasped when Maggie slapped me. I c

Mauris POV.I opened my eyes to find myself in Oma's room, I had no idea what happened after my dad left me. I tried to turn but the pain in my sides wouldn't let me, the bandage on my chest had just been changed, I could feel it, it felt fresh and wasn't wet like last night. My throat burned, I am very thirsty. I looked beside me to check if Oma or the doctor or a maid had generously left a jug of water besides me, instead of just water, I found a whole breakfast set arranged in a tray. Pancakes with maple syrup, some fruits in a bowl and a glass of orange juice, a flower vase was carefully placed inside the tray along with the food. I sat up on the bed, resting my back against it, then I noticed Yara, fast asleep at the foot of the bed. She sat on a chair but her head, rested on the bed. I smiled at how relaxed and peaceful she looked right now. I pushed back the hair that had covered her face and tried not to make any noise as I ate my breakfast, she must have been here all night

Yara's POV.The next day, Mauris looked and sounded health enough to move around. I escorted him back to his room, after waking Oma up and thanking her profusely for all that she had done. I didn't think she was listening to us but I didn't read much into it. On our way to his room, he still leaned on me but didn't rest his weight entirely on my body, his other arm rested on the bandage as if he was trying to keep his guts from spilling out.Mauris made a joke about my fragile body and I laughed out loud, I looked up and found Kylie standing in front of us, the smile on my face vanished immediately even Mauris's smile disappeared. We stood there for a few seconds, looking at each other, hoping that Kylie would not decide to let himself loose right here. I felt Mauris body tighten against mine."Kylie." Mauris whispered, barely audible. He must be very surprised to see him just yet. Not like we were planning to avoid him for long but we had hoped that we would have a couple of hours to

Oma's POV.It's been a couple of days since the council meeting, a lot has been going on in the house. Mauris and Kylie avoided themselves like a plague and refused to talk about each other neither do they talk to each other. Alpha Theon seems to be using the opportunity to cook up something, Kylie's mandatory days off had not ended so I couldn't ask for his permission to investigate Alpha Theon without upsetting him so I patiently waited, counting the days eagerly. Maggie and Yara had developed an inseperably bond that even I couldn't break, they did a lot of things together, Maggie taught Yara how to ride and Yara, who surprisingly had many skills, taught Maggie how to go rabbit hunting in the woods nearby.No one saw Kylie these days, he moved around the house like a ghost and stuck to his room like glue except when he was heading out. I knew he is avoiding us on purpose and I didn't blame him for it but I am worried about him, the maids complained frequently that his temper was be

Yara's POV.I watched Mauris wounds heal and his usual cheerful smile return. He spent almost every hour of his day with me, making sure I had enough to eat and that no one dared to challenge my right to stay in the house. The council wasn't planning of letting us off the hook, a few days after the last council meeting and the conversation with Alpha Theon, the council sent a message that Mauris and I were to appear before the disciplinary panel to sort out the issue at hand.Mauris didn't seem bothered about it at all, he simply went on his business trips and meeting. As for him and Kyle, their friendship had never been worse, they avoided themselves easily, I had never been more uneasy with myself, the fact that I didn't have to do what Alpha Theon asked but watching them do it for me and felt oddly at ease, made me feel horrible about myself."Babe!" A gentle voice said in my head. I knew who it was immediately, the link between our minds had grown stronger ever since the day he ma
