Chapter 7.
Silas’s POVE
Silas stood in the hallway, watching the healers tend to Anastasia at the clinic.
He had made sure that she was taken care of by two of the most experienced healers in the p side of her head, the other was checking on the baby
pack. One was tending to the swelling at the
He ran a hand through his hair as he shook his head slowly. He still couldn’t believe what had just happened.
Willow, of all people.
The woman who used to cry if she stepped on someone’s foot by mistake. The one who apologized for things that weren’t even her fault The same woman who once stayed up two nights straight to take care of Anastasia when she was sick.}
And now she was attacking Ana?!
He clenched his jaw, shaking his head. No matter how many times he played it over in his mind, it didn’t make sense.
What was wrong with her?
He knew that tension had been high lately, and that things had gotten complicated since Anastasia moved in. But this? This w for
This was uncalled
Willow had slammed another woman’s head into the wall, worst of all, a pregnant woman.
That wasn’t the Willow he knew.
Then again, maybe he didn’t know her as well as he thought he did.
He sighed, rubbing a hand over his face. He didn’t want to think about it that way, but what
guards saw it Anastasia was injured and bleeding. Willow had just stood there like she did. Ce did he have? The pack saw it. The
Had all these years been fake?8
Had she just been pretending to be quiet and gentle all this while?3
“Alpha, a healer finally emerged. “The injury on Ana’s head has been managed. She’s resting now. No concussion, and the wound will heal very soon. The pup is stable,”
Silas nodded slowly as relief flooded him.
“Can I see her?” he asked, even though nothing was going to stop him from seeing her.
The healer nodded. “She’s resting, but yes. She asked for you.”
He walked into the room immediately. Anastasia was laying on a large bed. She looked a little pale, but she smiled weakly when she saw
him.
“Hey,” he said softly, “How are you feeling?”
“Hey,” she whispered back. “Tm okay. Just a little sore.”
He nodded. “I’m glad,“}
There was silence for a moment.!!!
She reached out and took his hand gently. “Thank you for protecting mih
He gave her a small tender smile, “You don’t need to thank me. It’s my duty.”
After a few more minutes of talking with her, he excused himself!
Immediately Silas stepped out of the room, his eyes glanced at the hallway.
There was still no sign of Willow.
He frowned.
The guards said she was bleeding badly. He had seen the blood himself. It had been so much, it had stained the floor. He could remember how she had curled herself up looking very pale and in so much pain.
Someone must have helped her !!
She couldn’t still be lying there!!
He stared at the main doors of the clinic, expecting her to walk through at any second.
But no one came.k
He checked the hallway again. There was nothing.
He pulled out his phone. There were no messages or calls N
Siles swallowed hard. If she needed his help, she would have called him
Or was she ignoring him out of spite? Or was something wrong?!!
He could still remember how she had pleaded
Please
The image of her soaked in blood, and her eyes wide with pain, flashed in his mind
But he turned away, and walked out b
“She’s a werewolf. She’ll heal, he said out loud to himself.

her?
He closed his eyes and exhaled through his nose.
It was probably because that image wouldn’t leave his mind.
Willow curled up on the floor, her face pale, and pain in her eyes, while her hands were protectively wrapped around her belly.”
He released a growl, and he clenched his fist.
He didn’t understand this. Why was he still thinking about her?
He took in a deep breath and finally dialed her number.
He just needed to make one call, to know she was at the clinic, being treated.
He wasn’t calling because he cared. He was calling because she was still his wife, at least for now, and it would look bad if anything serious happened to her and he did nothing.
He dialed her number, but it was switched off.
