Chapter 163 288 iVouchers Chapter 163 FREDA WHITLOCK “You can’t leave the room”. Lyra ordered. “I just want a breath of fresh air” I groaned exasperatedly, almost tempted to tug at my hair in frustration at Lyra’s protective tone. We had been arguing for minutes now. I was tired of being cooped up in my room. I just wanted to stretch my legs around but she was having none of it. “There’s fresh air here too Freda”, she said in a serious tone and crossed her arms as she stared pointedly at me. “Ugh, Lyra. Just let me go” I raised my hands in frustration. I had a feeling I could go crazy if I stayed a minute longer in the room. I glanced at the couch and sighed in relief when I saw Cisco was fast asleep. I didn’t want him to have to witness his mum losing her wits. I was used to always working. It killed the bananas out of me that I had to stay confined to my bed. It was comforting to have my meals being fed to me at first but right now I was tired of it. I just wanted to see something outside these four cornered white walls. Not that there was anything much to see in the hospital hallway but I was willing to take it if it meant not being here. Dane, who was still in the room, must have seen the frustration on my face because he spoke up almost immediately. “I would 0.00% 16.06 Chapter 163 288 Vouchers escort her. I’m heading out anyway”. He offered and Lyra loosened her folded arms. “Really?”, she asked in surprise and he nodded. “Okay then, but don’t let her out of your sight” she warned fiercely and I almost laughed if only my lungs weren’t still a bit sore.

I was still connected to a drip but it was a mobile stand, so I could wheel it anywhere. I carefully wheeled the stand out of the room after passing Lyra a playful glare and she groaned. She was probably regretting her decision of letting me leave but I was leaving anyway. Dane walked closely beside me as he studied me with a foreign expression on his face. “What do you want to say?” I asked when I couldn’t bear him staring at me any longer. A stretcher was being wheeled in the hallway and Dane gently guided me to the side to avoid being hurt. I noticed the person on it was dead and I sighed. That could be my fate too. When it had passed, he turned to me. “Are you sure it’s okay to be moving around like this? Your condition is pretty delicate”. He said slowly and I sighed. “I know” I revealed and he looked at me quizzically. “What do you mean by ‘you know’ ?” he asked in suspicion and I sighed. “I know how bad my condition is. I know I have wolfsbane in my blood”. I revealed and he stilled visibly. We were already some distance away from my ward so I stopped walking. I’m surprised you are aware,” he said after a moment of silence. “Hmm, I know the effects too. I know there’s a chance I 16.06 Chapter 163 288 iVouchers might not survive this. I can feel my body system trying to fight off the wolfsbane”. The hands holding the standing grip tightened and I sucked in a deep breath to compose myself. still hadn’t really come to terms with the fact that I could die from this. Everytime I thought about it was just as shocking as the last. I was putting up a bold front so as not to worry anyone but I wasn’t sure how long I could last while pretending I was okay with the possibility of dying. A wave of dizziness washed over me and I held the stand tighter. I closed my eyes as I waited for it to pass. After it was over, I opened my eyes slowly and saw Dane looking at me with an expression of concern? Pity? I wasn’t sure. Dane seemed conflicted, he was probably lost for words on how to comfort me. I didn’t want anyone

to feel unnecessarily burdened. “Where’s Kaiden?” I swiftly changed the topic and it worked because Dane immediately snapped back to attention. He had left the ward a while ago and still hadn’t returned. Another reason I had decided to go out of my room was also because I hoped to run into him in the hospital hallway. “He’s probably in Harper’s ward”. He replied drawing me out of my thoughts and I knitted my brows in confusion. Harper’s ward? Was she sick? “What happened to Harper?” I asked worriedly. Dane scratched his head uncomfortably. “I think it’s best if you 1 hear it from the Alpha himself” he said and I frowned. I didn’t like what I was hearing. “Lead me there” I said at once.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
