บททั้งหมดของ Fated but Hated: บทที่ 91 - บทที่ 100

Cole had slipped out of the room, walking past me with an icy glare, but spoke not a word. Marcus paused for a moment by my side. “We are just going to talk with the head doctor.” He informed me, so I took it that he was giving me the opportunity to walk in and see Seren. He had to have known I needed to see her. That my wolf needed to see her.I lingered for a moment, waiting, and watching as my two friends walked along the corridor, disappearing around the corner. The moment they were out of view I rushed to the doorway of the room I had been waiting for news from since we had arrived. There had been nothing. Neither Cole nor Marcus had come to speak to me, nor had they mindlinked. Everything had been silent, and it had been torture.I tentatively opened the door, and as I stepped inside my blood ran cold. Seren was surrounded by machines, her perfect, petite body covered with a sheet, with only her face visible. Her delicate features st

The move to the pack hospital had occurred. Now I was battling for space within Seren’s room at almost every given moment. Not only with my friends, but also my mother and my Aunts. There was always somebody here to see her. If not friends and family, then of course, understandably, the medical staff to attend to her. Cole had decided that now his sister was back within pack it was only right to break the news to their mother of the accident. It had been difficult to explain her absence for the days she had been gone, so I think he was glad of no longer having to come up with lies.But, what he was not glad of was the agony of seeing his mother suffering as she appeared to be falling apart at seeing her little girl injured within a hospital bed. Aunt Sophia had barely left Seren’s side, which meant I rarely got time alone with my mate. Thankfully, I did not think Cole had shared the news I had given him with his mother, as she was still the same

I felt like I was drifting. Floating. In a state of nothingness. I did not like it. But I did not know how to get out. One moment I had been striding down the main street of our local city, planning the first leg of my journey. As well as having picked up an application form for the local university. Then I was here. Stuck.It had been one hell of a day, but I had took on board the things Lachlan had said. Even researched it a little too. Being apart from your fated mate was going to be difficult, but then, being near him was likely going to be even harder, so I decided I would allow myself the trip I wanted. Not the long, travelling trip I had been planning, but a shorter, more of a vacation sort of trip, with additional ones in the future. Before enrolling for further education upon my return. Living away from pack for most of the week, returning home at weekends. Sort of the best of both worlds. Giving me the much needed space I was craving, as well as be

It broke my heart hearing Lachlan be so open and honest about things to me. In all the years he and I have known one another never do I recall him talking so freely with me. I felt honoured he trusted me to share some of the things he had, because I doubted many others knew of the things he spoke of. And, while the things he said may have hurt, in my mind there was nothing to forgive.I never knew he had struggled that way. I certainly never knew he had felt so alone. Growing up side by side, being so close, yet I was clueless of his struggles. Guilt flooded my body that he had endured this alone. I knew how much he loved his Mum, and how close they were, so hearing him say he had to witness her fall apart in secret was soul destroying. He was a young boy. But this was through no fault of my Aunt's either. Circumstance had brought them to this. Lachlan would have been struggling with the loss of his Dad and needed support, and likely feared he could not seek

I had returned to my family home, a place I had not returned in the days since Seren’s accident, and took a shower. The warmth of the water feeling like a welcome relief upon my aching body. Having slept within that hard and uncomfortable hospital chair for far too many nights my body was not doing too well, and I feared Tyr was becoming weaker.His communication with me was lesser. And it had been sometime since I had last shifted. My priorities of course had been sitting by the bedside of Seren until she awoke. Now that had occurred I could try to take care of both her and myself. Begin to put things right. I knew we may have a long road ahead, but I swore I had seen something within her eyes when I mentioned proving myself to her. I just hoped I was capable of it.Fate had always been something in the back of my mind. Part of our life cycle, but something for the future. Nothing I was in a hurry for, I guess you could say. I was always a bit
