The Wolf Who Saved Me

“Excuse me, I don’t know who you are, but do you know Wren?” Nana Lolita asked with curiosity and hope.

The old woman smiled again and softly said, “No.”

We all raised our eyebrows. Logan frowned and asked, “Then, how do you know what’s going on with here that you could say she would be okay?”

She responded with a chuckle, then said, “I’m an old woman who is about to die. A hybrid who could see souls wandering around. I saw that poor girl’s soul walking earlier, but she saw something different. She went back to the time before she was even born when her parents went to seek help for her brother’s illness.”

“Her brother’s illness. How did you know that?” Reule asked.

The old woman looked at him with still her smiling face and said, “Young man, I only saw a sudden flash of what she was seeing. I don’t know the details. But she would mean something to you. Now, I have to go. Spirits had just asked to deliver this message to you. Again, don’t worry, she will come back. She will be asking questions because she would only remember fragments of what she has discovered now. It is not yet time for her to know it.”

Then, the old woman turned around and walked away. Reule wanted to ask more questions but decided against it. He felt that she would not give him the answers he was looking for.

“What’s that supposed to mean? What is wrong with senorita Wren?” Adriana asked.

“I don’t know. I just hope that senorita Wren would be fine.”

After two hours, a nurse informed them that they could now see Wren. But she was still unconscious.

They all rushed to see Wren. Wren was lying there pale and with breathing support.

Before the nurse left, Reule asked, “Why is she hooked in a breathing support?”

“Alpha Reule, we noticed that she was having difficulty breathing, but we still don’t know why. We are waiting for her test result, and maybe it could tell us why. However, she is better now as compared to earlier. She went flatline several times that we thought we would lose her. It’s a miracle that she went back,” the nurse replied.

Reule smiled and said, “Thank you!”

Nana Lolita was in tears again and said, “This poor girl! How many times her life was at risk. Look at how pale she is. She looks like she doesn’t have blood on her veins. Rolito, did they tell you what is going on with her?”

Reule shook his head and just looked at Wren. His heart ached, looking at how almost lifeless Wren’s body looked.

‘What is going on with you? Why do you go through all this unexplainable illness? Come back now. Come back to us. We need you. I need you here.’

Meanwhile, I was outside in the woods. I got shifted to another place again.

“Mom! Dad! Killian! Where are you? Mom! Dad! Killian!” I shouted as I was walking into the woods, going in circles.

“What’s going on? Where am I?”

I stopped walking when I realized I was just going in circles. I sat on a big rock, trying to rest my legs. It’s hurting now after what I felt like hours and hours of walking.

“What am I going to do? Where should I find my mate? Who is he?” I asked myself, remembering what the witch had said.

Suddenly, I heard a whisper. At first, it was not clear, then I closed my eyes and focused on the sound. It was a man’s voice.

‘Who is that? What are you trying to say?’

“Come back now. Come back to us.”

‘It sounds familiar. Who is that?’

“We need you.”

‘Wait! Is that… Reule?’

“I need you here.”

I opened my eyes and whispered, “Reule. Where are you?”

I stood and started calling Reule’s name. I shouted several times, but he won’t respond. I could not hear his voice anymore. Why?

I got tired. I gave up and sat on the ground. I cried, and then I felt dizzy all of a sudden. Then, everything turned blurry, and I was down.

I slowly opened my eyes. I squinted because the white lights were almost blinding me. Everything was blurred.

I closed my eyes and slowly opened them again. Then, I realized I was lying down in a room.

I turned my head and saw some machines on my rights, the type of machines that you could see in hospitals.

‘What!? Hospital? Am I in a hospital?’ I thought in panic and tried to move, but I felt weak and heavy.

‘What’s going on? Was I ill again like before? But I was already cured of it. I was even able to join the evening run. So, why am I here?’

Suddenly, I heard footsteps coming towards me. She was a nurse holding some document, reading it. It was probably my record. But I still don’t understand nor remember why I am here.

The nurse just stood, flipping pages and not looking at me yet. Then, she turned, her eyes widened, and her jaw dropped.

“Finally, you are awake! This is great! How are you feeling?” she asked.

I could not make a sound. I could only look at her.

“Still too weak to talk?”

I blinked my eyes and understood. She smiled and said, “That’s okay and just rest. I will call the doctor to have you check. But before I do that, can you lift your hand or finger for me, please?”

I was able to raise my arm slightly. She smiled and said, “Very good! Now I have this remote control that helps you to adjust your bed. You see this yellow button which has a figure of a lady?”

I blinked. Then, she continued, “This button is for you to call a nurse. All you have to do is press it, and we will come for you. I will place this near your hand. I will go out to call the doctor, but if you feel pain or any discomfort, press that yellow button right away, okay?”RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

I blinked, and she left. I still could not remember what happened and how I got here. I don’t even know if this is real.

Suddenly, I heard a man’s voice outside. I know who it belongs to. Reule.

And so, this is real. I am in the hospital. But how? Why?
