They reached the pack just before the clock struck twelve. The warriors on duty immediately marched towards the ship and assisted them. Centauri already informed Dr Park about Anastasia’s injury through mind link and thus he was already waiting at the shore with ambulance and staff. The moment ships anchored, Dr Park rushed inside with his team and safely transferred Anastasia to the hospital. Centauri and Ethan followed the ambulance in their black jeep.
“Centauri! I will take care of all the matters. You should go home. Sylvia will be waiting for you.”
Centauri was fully concentrated on the road. His wolf was at an edge and his conscience was alarming him consistently. It was hard to believe this truth and hardest to acknowledge it. He was stuck between the protection of pack and the truth he was facing. Ethan searched his face for response, but nothing came. Ethan deliberately gave up this time and rested his head on the seat and closed his eyes. He was on voyage for more than months.
Ambulance stopped at the entrance of hospital and so does the jeep. Centauri immediately opened the door, stepped out and gave the key to the omega who slightly bowed his head in courtesy. He than closed the door with a huge bang. Ethan who was sleeping soundly was rattled and instantly sat up. He cursed Centauri under his breath and then left the car.
Centauri walked past the stature, grabbed its foot side, and started moving it towards the room on the third floor of the hospital. Dr Park hesitated for a moment. The room on third floor was specifically designed by Centauri’s father for him when he was a child. Whenever Centauri was hurt or he returned from the forest and got injured he was reluctant to go to the hospital. His father carefully designed that portion keeping in mind Centauri’s preference. No one including Ethan and Sylvia set foot on the Third floor. The surprised looks on the faces of staff said it all. Dr Park adjusted his glasses and realised by Centauri’s decision that the person he bought back was not ordinary. If he was willing to let her stay on the third floor it meant a lot.
“Here you are, and I explored the entire sand of shore in search of you two.” Aster said loudly appearing form the sharp turn of hallway.
“I wasn’t aware of the fact that we have got a shore inside the hospital.” Ethan extended his arm. Aster immediately grabbed him from his elbow and pulled him for a hug but failed. Ethan was far more powerful than Aster so he remained firm on the ground and Aster continued pulling him like a child fighting with a pole. Ethan smirked and then pulled him instead. Aster was instantly uprooted from the ground.
“How are you?” He asked casually.
“I thought this constant voyage will wear you out, but you are strong as ever.” He whined.
“You are weak as ever.” He retaliated.
“Are we going to the third floor?” Aster asked.
“Yes.” They both exchanged looks and smirked, “We can finally see the treasures he is hiding up there.” Aster winked after saying it.
Centauri opened the door of third floor. There were several rooms on both sides of the hallway. The ceiling of hall was black with golden zig zag pattern illuminated with white lights. The entire theme of this floor was black and golden. It had a royal touch in it. At the end of the hall was a balcony fully enclosed with glass.
“Woahhhh…. Centauri I can finally die in peace now. My eyes have never seen such a magnificent hospital which does not even look like a hospital.” Aster said in daze. He was looking at the ceiling and walking forward with he bumped into something. He looked down and Centauri’s intense gaze was enough to pierce a hole in his head.
“I have a free post in the sanitary department. If you free you can join them.” He said through his teeth.
Aster looked at Ethan with pitiful eyes begging for help, but Ethan pretended as if he were deaf. Centauri then opened the room near the balcony and allowed Dr Park and two staff members to enter the room. Ethan and Aster also went inside and closed the door. If the medical equipment were not present inside one would have considered it as a royal chamber.
“Take a look at her and tell me if anything is wrong?” Centauri demanded.
Dr Park undergo thorough examination and stated, “She seems completely fine. I need some radiological investigations to ensure her state.”
Centauri patted Ethan’s shoulder. Ethan was relieved to know she was fine. “I’ll leave her under your care then. Remember her safety is the top priority. Notify me immediately if anything happens inside the hospital.” Centauri’s blue irises turned red with streaks of golden in them. The dominance of his wolf send shivers down Dr Park’s spine. His palms drenched in sweats. Dr Park wiped his forehead and nodded.
“Ethan you should take rest too.” Centauri then added, “Aster, you will remain in the balcony and guard this room. Inform me if anything happens.”
Centauri then left the hospital, and his jeep entered the huge gates of palace. The moment he entered the living room Sylvia was standing there.
