After a few days of taking care of me and treating my wounds, I was well enough.
She gave me some medicine.
"You need to take these." She advised. "It will help you feel stronger and eat."
She had helped me even though I was a stranger to her, even though she had known me for a couple of days when I had stayed back home in the pack and no one bothered to help me.
I swallowed heavily.
"Thank you," I said. "I don't know how to thank you enough."
"You don't need to." She promised me. "That's what people do. Help each other."
All through the days that I had been awake, I hadn't seen Alpha Xaden or any of his men.
I had remained in the room until I had completely healed.
"Those lashes on your back." She told me.
I kept quiet.
She knew who I was.
At least from what she told me, she knew that I was not Jessica.
I smiled weakly. "I was disrespectful, and I was punished."
