Chapter 462
The silence was thick on the other side of the phone. The nurse pulled me forward, and I grunted. “What’s wrong? What’s happening?” Rowan sounded slightly panicked.
The nurse snickered. “I moved Amy forward so I could clean up her back and then wrap her chest.”
“Wrap her chest?” He sounded confused. “Why are you wrapping her chest?”
I dropped my head but the nurse just smirked. “When we cut away her top so we could get to her ribs. We also had to cut away her
bra. So for her privacy, this was the solution.” There was a soft intake on the other side of the phone. But then she kept going.
“Also because someone called the clinic and yelled at the doctor. He didn’t want to chance anything to be misconstrued. The
doctor was clearly afraid of whoever called.” The nurse wiggled her eyebrows at me at the silence on the other end. She nodded to
the phone with her lips. I shook my head but I couldn’t stop the smile. She winked. “I’m wrapping her chest so he can come in
here and properly wrap her ribs.”
There was another awkward silence for a moment. Then he coughed. “Well, as long as Amy is taken care of.” There was another
silence.
I coughed this time. The nurse giggled again. “Lift your arms as high as you can so we can tuck these away.”
I laughed at that. “My king.” I shook my head as Jenn blushed. “I hoped that because of the broken mating agreement, and this
attack, you would give me permission to transfer out of this pack by midnight tonight?”
His voice was soft. “I’ve missed that.” 1
I furrowed my brow. “I asked if I could-”
“I heard you.” He interrupted me. “Yes. I will give you permission to transfer. What pack are you transferring to?” He asked, but I
knew he knew.
“I would like your permission to take the chance of going back to my father’s pack lands.” The nurse paused for a second before
finishing.
“I’m done here. Call when you are done.” Jen pushed the call button into my hand. She helped me lie back against the bed with a
hiss. Then she left me alone with a soft click.
“Do you think that’s wise?” He sounded genuinely curious.
“It’s the only option my wolves agree with me. We could go to Toya’s pack, but she will be our alpha…”
“And you are stronger than she is.” He finished.
“Yeah.”
“Nix will force you to take over.”

“And I wouldn’t want to do that to Toya.” He sighed. “I’ll be safe. I’ll scope it out first. See if there is recent rogue activity.” He snorted. “I swear. If there is, I’ll transfer to another pack.”
He was silent for a few minutes. “Fine.”
“Can you possibly send a letter with the approval to my office fax?”
“Why?”
“Because if you send it just to Vince, he will say he never received it. Then spend the next week trying to convince me to still marry his son.”
He growled, but then agreed. “Okay. I’ll send it to your office now.”
“Actually. Could you wait?”
He groaned. “Why?”
“Because I need to get there first.” Obviously.
Nix chuffed out a laugh. He’s a man, he isn’t that smart.
Or… Megan cut in. Maybe he is just so blown away by speaking with you, he isn’t thinking straight.
I snorted. But he laughed too. “Yeah, I didn’t think of that.” He knocked once on a table. “Yeah, just text me when you get there
and I’ll send it to you first. Then I’ll send it to Vince.”
“Thank you, my king.” He disconnected before I could say anything else. I sighed, then pushed the call button.
Luke and Jenn walked in. “All done.” I just nodded. “Perfect. Let’s get you wrapped and out of here.” He grabbed the tensor and
started to wrap. “We just need them to stay in place until whatever is in your system clears out, so you heal properly.”
I nodded. “Thank you.”
.
He came around to face me. “Jenn told me you are planning ongoing back to the office today?” I nodded. “I need you to be extra
carefully. You are still bleeding internally, and your ribs are really fragile. One wrong move and it’s going to pop out of the skin
again.”
I nodded. “I understand. But I need to. ” He looked at me for a second before nodding.
“Okay.” He held out his hand, and Jenn came up to the other side of me. “Then let’s get you up.”
I puffed out my cheeks as I slid to the side of the bed, then I got to the edge. “Wait.” Jenn grabbed something from the bed and
then slid it over my head. “Your shirt.” She helped me move my arms into the sleeve while I growled. “There you go.” Then they
helped me get to my feet.
And then I puked.
