Alex's POV
Closing the door behind me, I stepped out of the hospital room, the weight of the recent events heavy on my mind. Tyler was waiting just outside the ward, his gaze meeting mine with a mix of concern and respect. "I already had Linda sent back, Alpha."
I cleared my throat, my voice coming out more strained than I intended. "Good. Thank you, Tyler."
"It's late. Do you need anyone to drive you home?" Tyler asked.
But I shook my head. "It's fine. I just need some time alone. Stay here and protect Emma."
Seeing Tyler nodding, I headed outside. I needed some time to process everything that had transpired, to figure out what my next steps would be.
