That night, I couldn’t sleep well. I woke up covered in sweat just as dawn was breaking.
He saw my struggles and Nathan pulled me out of bed. “Let’s go to the pack’s hospital, you’re not looking well.” He touched my forehead. “And you also seemed to have a fever.”
I shook my head. “I’ll call my brother first—”
“Fuck your brother!” He snatched my phone and it landed on the pillow. “Can’t you see you’re in pain right now?” Concern twinkled in his eyes. I heaved a deep sigh as he said, “I’ll drive you to the pack’s hospital right now.”
I grumbled, trying to push him away. But he just clicked his tongue and leaned in to kiss me. All of a sudden, my sleepiness vanished. I almost slapped him, but I thankfully managed to hold myself back from my palm landing on his cheeks.
“It was just a quick kiss, babe.” I rolled my eyes at him. He poked my shoulder playfully. “Are you awake now, my Sleeping Beauty?”
I turned away, wiping my mouth in disgust. “I’m hungry, Nathan.”
“Then let’s go to the pack’s hospital. I’ll buy you a sandwich on the way there.”

Arriving at the White Woods Pack’s hospital, we unexpectedly ran into Shannon.
