Chapter 186 Ground Rules

• The light flicks on in my hospital room, and I squint against the brightness. Someone is holding my hand, but it doesn't feel comforting at all. It feels sweaty and out of place.
• Opening my eyes against the bright lights, I see Raven standing in the doorway. Her arms crossed over her chest, and her lips pursed into a bit of pout. If she isn't holding my hand, then who is?
• I look to my left and see Elise asleep with her head on the edge of my bed and her hand tightly wrapped around mine. A low growl rumbles in my chest as I pull my hand away from Elise.
