Chapter 150
- “I’m sorry Cole. I know it creates a lot of anxiety for you but I’m putting you back in the medical wing until we figure out how bad the silver situation is and if we need to get Crimson General involved. I’m going to help you get some clothes on once your pain dies down enough for you to move again.”
- He doesn’t protest my plan. It seems he realizes the shape he’s in. He slowly releases my shirt and starts moving his hand back towards the bed. I stay still until he lets go and steps away on his own. I look at him briefly before sitting in the chair I pulled over.
- It’s been a long time since I’ve worked with a wolf so broken. His head and eyes are still trained towards the ground, rarely has he looked into my eyes on his own. What few times he has, his eyes were filled with the fear of being caught in doing something wrong. Just like a moment ago when I called him out on his lie. He looked at me, into my eyes searching for the anger, the malice that comes with the punishment he’s used to receiving. The harsh punishment I know he expects from me as well. I will not pretend to understand why he’s desperate to hide his pain. All I know right now is that he’s failing miserably to do so.
