He was still checking out my wound. I felt like he was looking for something.
“What’s wrong?” I asked him.
“Nothing. Your healing is just magnificent.” He said in awe.
“Can I go home?” I asked.
“Will you take it easy?” He asked, and I pressed my lips into a line.
“That’s what I thought. Your father couldn’t sit still either. But I need you to rest. This would heal even more quickly if you’d slow down.” He gave me a pointed look, and I nodded.
“Doc? I know this is unrelated, but what’s a good birth control option?” I asked nervously.
“I could give you a shot. It works for about six weeks at a time. It will prevent you from entering your heat.” He explained.
“But will it stop me from getting pregnant?” I asked him.
“Miss. Knight, the chances of getting pregnant while not in heat are slim.” He told me.
“I’ve already suffered a miscarriage, and I haven’t started or have I ever been in heat.” I told him and he gasped.
“I’m so sorry to hear that, Miss. Knight. I’ll be back with something that may help.” He left the room, and the others entered again.
“Ashlyn, how are you feeling?” Sage asked while sitting beside me on the bed.
“Fine, I should be able to go home soon.” I told her, and she furrowed her eyebrows.
“How?” she asked.
“I heal fast and apparently my saliva heals, as well.” I told them. Taking one of my nails, I cut my hand open. Licking the wound, it closed up, causing everyone to gasp.
“How is any of this possible?” Sage whispered, and I shrugged.
“So, are you ready to tell us what happened?” Mason huffed, but before I could answer him, the doctor came back in.
He administered a needle into my arm and reminded me of about 6 weeks. I can only hope that the doctor was right with his prescription. He was talking in code so that the others wouldn’t know what he was giving me. He checked over the wound again and told me I could go home to rest. I agreed, so I could get out of here.
He discharged me, and then Sage opened a portal into our living room, grateful I didn’t have to be seen by the public. I wore the sheet home and when I stepped through it, I tried to walk to my room. But Mason stopped me.
“Ashlyn, explain now.” He ordered, and I raised my eyebrows at him.
“Are you fucken kidding me right now?” I asked him.
“Ashlyn, now!” he yelled. And I crossed my arms across my chest.
“Madison stabbed me in the dining room washroom.” I growled, pushing past him. I entered my old room, slamming the door behind me. Locking it before I went into the bathroom to shower.
I started the shower and discarded the sheet and the bandages. The wound had closed up and even the stitches were falling out. It was bruised, but nothing I couldn’t handle.
I had a quick shower to wash away the dried blood and sweat. After I was done, I got dressed and went out onto my balcony. I needed to get some fresh air and to think about everything that happened today.
I was upset that Mason didn’t trust me. I was worried about Liam’s safety, not because I was in love with him. And then how Derek reacted, like it was Liam’s fault I was stabbed. I wish those two would just trust me.
Hearing a knock coming from my door pulled me from my thoughts. I wandered back inside to answer the door. Mason was standing on the other side.
“Can we talk now?” He asked me, annoyed. I didn’t like his tone, but I let him in the room, anyway. I could already feel the argument we were about to have.
“What do you want to talk about?” I asked him.
“Really, Ashlyn? I want to know what the fuck happened today? And why were you so worried about Liam?” He growled out. And there it was.
“I told you what happened, and I was worried about Liam’s safety as well. But you think there’s more to it?” I asked him, and he crossed his arms over his chest.
“Well, is there?” He growled.
“Yes, Mason. I’m so in love with Liam that I asked you to mark me.” I told him sarcastically. And he growled.
“What the fuck, Ashlyn? So, now I’m the bad guy for wanting to keep you safe?” He yelled.
“Safe? You’re pissed off because you don’t trust me.” I yelled back.
“I do trust you,” he said.
“Then why were you so worried about me asking for Liam?” I asked him and he didn’t answer.
“Coming in here was a mistake.” He said, walking to the door.
“Yeah, it was.” I told him and he turned around.
“Why do you do that?” He growled.
“Do what?” I asked, confused.
“Test my god damn patience every chance you get!” he yelled.
“And why can’t you trust me?” I yelled. He turned back around, slamming my door when he left.
I walked over to my bed, cursing and huffing. I flopped down on my bed, trying to calm myself down. That man was so infuriating. Why can’t he see I was worried about his friend? If Madison had gone after Liam, I never would have been able to forgive myself.
I must have fallen asleep. I awoke to Liam sitting on my bed, watching me.
“What Liam?” I grumbled, closing my eyes again.
“You need to go to Mason.” He said, and I opened my eyes to look at him.
“Why?”
“You’re his mate and he needs you.” He told me.
“He doesn’t trust me, Liam.” I sighed.
“I think he was just worried about the attention you were giving me. He was scared, we all were, and he’s even more scared now. You need to go see him.” He said, and I grumbled.
“Liam, how can you just forgive him? He doubted you during this whole situation?” I asked him.
“To be fair, if it were my mate, I would have doubted him, too.” He chuckled.
