Chapter 80

Jojo POV

I watched the alpha move closer to me. He corked his head to the side, examining me as though he did not believe any of the words that came out of my mouth.

He moved closer to me and stared down at me. I swallowed hard, fighting my urge to take steps backward.

"What did the doctor say? About your nausea?" He asked, his thick baritone laced with genuine concern.

Now, I know that you're thinking I should have stolen this opportunity to talk to the alpha, but that is not how the whole thing works. I was a nobody and he was the alpha, I had to thread with caution.

"Nothing serious. As I said, it was just the smell of the hospital and bad food, maybe from the cafeteria." I spat out. I noticed how the intensity of his gaze did not relax, even after all I had said.
