Chapter 82 HE WILL SEND HER AWAY TO HER NIGHTMARE
82 HE WILL SEND HER AWAY TO HER NIGHTMARE
The Doctor was a human as well as the two nurses who came with him.
Because of Serefina's warning about Raine's weak spirit, Torak limited Raine's interaction with other Lycans.
Including himself, he had been keeping his distance all this time and only came to touch her very rarely. It was inconvenient, but it helped her to recover.So as frustrated as he was about the situation, Torak couldn't complain about it.
After some major checkup, they said there was nothing to worry about her condition now, she would recover and would be able to discharge after a week.
"Let Doctor Lucas know about the result and ask his opinion." Torak told the Doctor. He needed his own people to make sure that Raine's condition was not in danger anymore, physically.
"Will do Mr. Donovan." The Doctor smiled politely before he walked out of the room with the two nurses, who kept stealing a glance or two at Torak's direction, seemingly smitten with his charm and mysterious aura around him.
"How are you feeling my love?" Torak caressed Raine's cheek fondly, feeling her soft skin.
Raine felt like she was under the water, disoriented and the headache made everything fuzzy in her eyes. Her body was like a jelly and her lower back was sore due to lying down for a long time. She wanted to sit.
However, she didn't have much strength to hoist herself up. With a hazy mind, she reached out her arms, asking Torak to help her.
A tender smile appeared on Torak's lips upon seeing her gesture.
How could he endure to be separated from this little creature? He must think harder and work his brain out to think of another way.
Gingerly, Torak supported her back as he pressed the button to lift the bed, he arranged pillows around her so she would feel comfortable.
Throughout the process, Serefina watched how gentle Torak treated his mate.
She remembered how ferocious this Lycan was centuries ago, actually he was still that way until now, the beast was only asleep inside, not dead.
However no one would believe it if they were looking, how devoted this beast to his mate at this moment.
Is he also like this to his mate?—Serefina's mind flew to the image of a certain Lycan.
==============
After five days of good care, Raine's condition became much better. Originally she was allowed to be discharged by now, however Torak insisted for her to stay for another two days.
When Raine wasn't as muddleheaded as before, the first thing that came up in her mind was how splendid this hospital ward was.She didn't feel like she was in a hospital at all, instead it was more like a seven stars hotel, even though she had never been in any rate of hotel before.
He was an affluent man, she knew that from the moment he brought her out of the orphanage, but to spend his money on her this way, not to mention she was unconscious for days recently. Torak could've put her in a regular room and she would never say a word about it, was this all worth it?
Another thing that came to her understanding was the presence of the woman named Serefina, occasionally she would hold her hand without saying anything, during that moment, Raine would feel numb with a warm sensation that crept from her hand, which she was holding.
It wasn't an unpleasant feeling, on the contrary, after Serefina had done that, she felt better as if she had regained her strength back.
And the last thing that bothered her the most was the fact that Torak had been avoiding being close to her.
Actually, Torak was still inside the room, however instead of being near her, he would sit on the sofa close to the window, busying himself with a stack of documents.
Only if Raine walked towards him, would he urge her to go back to lie down on the bed?Not to mention he was more cautious and careful when he was with her, more than before.
Another small thing that she realized was the fact that she had not seen Raphael and Calleb. Not even once since she regained consciousness.
As long as she could remember, both of them were rarely leaving Torak's side.
What actually had happened?
"What is it, my love?" Torak kissed Raine's beautiful eyes as they were looking at him absentmindedly.
Currently, he was cuddling, lying down with her on the sofa beside the floor to ceiling window while looking at the drizzle rain outside, and fogging their view from the city below.
It was still afternoon, 1.43 p.m., but the gloomy cloud didn't allow the ray of sunlight to escape. Thunder and lightning appeared at the other further side of the sky, behind a tall building, giving an ominous feeling.
Raine shifted to find comfort in Torak's embrace while he adjusted the blanket around her.
It was the moment when Torak hoped time would freeze and let him relish his mate's presence for a little bit longer.
At this time nothing was matter anymore for him. He had given Raphael authority to deal with the matter regarding the Dragon People and their company takeover.
Raine used his arms as a pillow while Torak's other hand played with her hair, one of his favorite things to do when he had Raine near him.
"Where is Call and Raph?" Raine's voice was so soft like a breeze wind when she asked him.
She had started to talk again, but it was only with him, while with the other people like the Doctor and nurses, she chose to remain silent or used her iPad to communicate.
"Why are you asking for them?" Torak slightly frowned, didn't like when she was asking for other men, even though he knew what she meant. She must have realized it by now.
"You are always with them." Raine whispered, snuggled deeper to his chest.
"I will call them if you want." Torak found it difficult to explain the situation to her.
It would be the day after tomorrow, Serefina would bring her back to her birthplace, but Raine was still in the dark.
The idea of being separated from her didn't please the Alpha either.
"No, just asking…" Raine shook her head, and didn't want to trouble him. "But…"
Before Raine could talk further a sudden sound of the door being opened with unnecessary forces echoed inside the room, startling Raine as she jolted to sit.
She was very self-conscious if there was someone else near her as she was too shy to let other people see her cuddling with Torak.
Meanwhile, Torak was really annoyed with the sudden interruption, his blue ocean eyes were looking at Serefina, who strolled inside the room with a bright saffron yellow fur coat that complimented her lime green eyes, she was too dolled up for Torak's taste.
"Can we talk straight to the business?" Serefina crossed her feet and leaned her back against the sofa as she put on airs, her features were very radiating for Raine.
The girl lowered her head like she always did when she felt intimidated. She felt Torak wrapped his arm around her waist protectively.
Torak gave Serefina a warning glare that the woman ignored it completely.
"You." Serefina pointed her chin at Raine arrogantly. "Will live with me in your hometown, we will go the day after tomorrow."
Serefina's short declaration earned a low growl from Torak as Raine turned her head to look at the woman straight in the eyes.
"After many days, finally you have courage to look at me." Mockery was clear to hear from the way Serefina said it.
"Watch your mouth witch!" Torak said through gritted teeth as his hand balled into a fist.
If it wasn't for Raine's sake the witch would have been thrown out of the ward through the window.
"I don't know what is wrong with you, but I can't find a reasonable reason for you to keep this matter until now." Serefina had run out of her patience.
She couldn't stand the way Torak spoiled Raine, and kept this issue secret until today while their departure was so close.
The way Torak treated her wouldn't do any good for her chance to survive! She had to find her own way through this struggle time!
Patience would never be the witch forte.Hence, it put her on the edge when she looked at Torak pampered Raine in such a way.
Raine looked at Torak with apprehensive eyes, her lips slightly opened but there was nothing that she could say.Her body was trembling when she realized that Torak would send her away.
"GET OUT!" Torak barked at Serefina, his eyes turned black because of anger.
He would let Raineknow about this eventually, but not this way. She would misunderstand his intention if Serefina put the matter in such a way.
Raine in his embrace startled when she heard Torak shouted furiously at the woman in front of them.And to her surprise, the woman didn't even bother with Torak's harsh words, she looked at Raine with impassive eyes and strolled out of the ward indifferently.
Only when the sound of the door had closed, Torak sighed agitatedly. He needed two second before he could face the fear of Raine's expression.
And the next thing that Raine said almost broke his soul painfully.
"You don't want me anymore…?" Raine asked, her voice was very soft, only barely a whisper. Tears had threatened to spill on the corner of her eyes, but she bit her lips stubbornly to hold them back.
She didn't want to go back to her hometown, it was a nightmare…
