Chapter 56. Let Me Help

Hours passed, and I did not realize that I had fallen asleep. I woke up to something moving in my fingers. Or someone rather.

I immediately lifted my head and came face to face with the demonic monster - my cursed mate.

"Hi." I breathed out.

He stared at me for a couple of seconds before covering himself with a blanket.

"It's okay. You don't have to hide from me." I said in a very calm voice.

He grunted and pulled the covers higher.

"Let me call the pack doctor so that she can check on you," I said, standing up from the chair.

I went to the living room and told the guard to inform Neal that Lucius was already awake. A few minutes later, Neal and the pack doctor arrived.

"How is he?" Neal asked upon entering the living room.

"He seems okay. I can't say. He is hiding from me." I replied.

They both looked at me and I just shrugged.

"Why don't you check on him, doctor?" Neal suggested. <
