Chapter 164

Demetri’s POV

Friday, February 2

It’s been a week since we admitted Cole to Crimson General’s ICU. It’s been nearly two years since he arrived in my territory, and he’s spent more time in medical than any prospect I’ve ever had.

I managed to get to the hospital on Monday as well as yesterday. He responded to me yesterday, but he was fearful, as if he didn’t recognize me or where he was. Due to his severe anxiety, they’ve been keeping him mostly sedated. I agreed that it was best until he was stable enough to return to the wing.

They did a spinal tap on him on Monday after I left. I am far from pleased with the report Dr. Christiansen gave on how it went. Although the test came back negative for infection, they didn’t sedate him enough, and he didn’t respond
