*Nick POV* Noah and I have been taking turns sitting in Hope’s hospital room. He feels guilty for what he’s done to her, but he still refuses to change his way of thinking. “How much longer will it take for her to heal enough to get out of here?” I asked. Her doctor explained that because she didn’t have her wolf, she would heal like a normal human. “It’s like I’ve explained, she’s basically a human. She has a few months before she will have a wolf that can help heal her. I mean no disrespect when I say this Alpha, but Alpha Noah nearly killed her. You can’t expect a speedy recovery,” he said bluntly. I didn’t like his tone when he mentioned Noah. However, it’s his job to care for people, even if they were in Hope’s shoes. Noah sat quietly in the chair staring at Hope as she slept
