Kasper slapped Karla for what she did. “Don’t ever show me your face. Because of you, we became this miserable. | clearly told you not to harm Hope, yet you did for for third time as well.” He was disappointed in his daughter, who looked at him with eyes of help.
Martha didn’t either say anything this time. Her daughter made her head bow with shame.
“| thank the chief pack leaders for going with the rules. My wife is still in the hospital, so | need to be there,” Logan said and left the base. Clifton followed him to the car closely and asked Logan he would drive him to the hospital.
“| will go by myself. Thank you. You should go home,” Logan said. As he opened the car’s door when Kasper stopped him.
“| would like to see my daughter, Mr. Moore. Please don’t deprive me of that right,” Kasper requested as he bowed his head. Martha was also standing beside her husband, ready to go to the hospital.
Logan saw the elders coming out and felt he should not expose his relationship to his in-laws. He signaled to Clifton, who asked both Kasper and Martha to follow them.
Logan drove the car ahead of them while Clifton followed his path. Shortly, they were in the hospital. Hope was already shifted to the VIP ward, which he had arranged before leaving.
Roxana and Ryan were still outside the VIP wardroom since none was permitted to go in. They both left their seats to see Logan. “Who are they?” Roaxana asked as she gazed at Kasper and Martha. Seeing their shabby state, she got even more puzzled. “My in-laws and Hope's parents: Mr. Kasper Ravenclaw and Mrs. Martha Ravenclaw,” Logan introduced them to his cousin sister. “This is Roaxana Moore, my sister and cousin. What's Hope condition? Is the Doctor inside?”
“She is not in any kind of danger. But some tests are being performed on her,” Ryan asserted. “Once they be finished, and she regains her consciousness, the doctor may allow us to see her,” he explained.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
“Hmm.
Kasper and Martha exchanged glances at each other, feeling worried for Hope.
Suddenly Logan’s phone rang and he excused himself from taking it. Going at the corridor’s end, he picked it up.

“How is Hope? | got the news that a chandelier fell above her. Is she fine? In which hospital she’s admitted to?” William asked in a state of panic from the other side.
“Calm down, Grandpa. Hope is fine. It’s just she has not regained her consciousness,” Logan said in a calming tone. He didn’t wish his grandfather to feel worried since William possessed a weak heart.
“I'm on my way to the hospital, Logan. Tell Samuel in which hospital Hope is admitted,” William said and handed the phone to his second son.
“No-” Before Logan could finish off his words, his grandfather handed the phone to his second son. Logan had no way now, except to tell about the hospital’s name to his second uncle. “Are you all coming?” Logan asked him.
“Yes. Hope is a part of this family and this incident isn’t a small one,” Samuel said. “Stay strong,” Samuel said and disconnected the call from the other side.
Logan lowered his hand as he pushed his phone into his pocket. As he turned around his eyes landed on Roaxana. She hugged him and patted his back. “She will be awake soon. You don’t have to blame yourself for today’s incident,” Roaxana consoled him. From outside, Logan was thick-skinned with no apparent emotions be visible on his face. However, from inside, he was as soft as feather. “I don’t think | can ever live happily,” Logan said as he pulled away.
“Don’t say that, Brother,” Roaxana said.
“| punished Karla, Hope’s stepsister. She tried to kill Hope twice. | destroyed them and because of me, Karla again tried to kill Hope,” Logan told her.
Roaxana was shocked to learn that. “But Karla did wrong to her from the beginning, no? Why are you blaming yourself in this? Don’t let your newly formed relationship with. Hope get destroyed because of someone else. Also, where’s Karla? I'll ask the werewolves head to punish her,” Roaxana affirmed. She was furious that Hope’s stepsister attempted to kill Hope not once but thrice.
“| already did that. She’s banished from her clan. Hope’s mother is not her real one. | had to bring them here since they begged me and | didn’t wish to create a scene in front of those elders,” Logan said. He wanted to share all this with a person and somehow, Roaxana became that person.
“Let's wait for Hope to wake up. Don’t let yourself get away from her,” Roaxana said as she stood beside him. Holding his arm, she took Logan back to the VIP wardroom.
An hour later, Hope regained her consciousness. However, she could feel the pain in

every spot of her body. It seemed to her that needles were piercing her constantly. She didn’t move her hands much since the pain was terrible.
‘Is Logan fine?” she thought when his voice fell into her ears. Hope tilted her head and found him beside her. His warm hand rested above her head, his eyes were full of worry toward her.
“Don’t move,” Logan told her. “Your body needs to recover,” he stated.
eyes fell upon
Hope just nodded at him. She noticed her in-laws also came to see her. Amidst that, her
upon her father and stepmother. For the very first time, she observed tears in her father’s eyes.
“Hope, my child,” William came forward and caressed her hair after Logan withdrew his hand. “You will be fine soon. The doctor said earlier that being a werewolf is a kind of blessing for you,” he stated with a smile.
“Ye-yes, Grandpa,” Hope said in a low voice, but it was audible enough.
“You all should go home. I'll be with Hope for the night,” Logan stated.
“I'll stay with you,” Fred offered. She felt Logan might need one more person to help
him.
“It's fine. You should also go. Perhaps you need to stay with her tomorrow morning,” Logan stated.
William agreed with Logan and told them they should go back. They all left soon, including Roaxana and Ryan. Kasper and Martha were still present in the wardroom.
Kasper stepped up and looked at Hope’s hands, covered in the bandages. “Forgive me, Hope. Just get well soon,” Kasper said. This was the first time he talked with so much concern toward Hope and it developed a weird feeling inside her heart. She wanted to believe that his tears for her were fake.
“Clifton will drop you two home. Just stay away from Hope,” Logan sternly told them. Kasper and Martha didn’t protest against his words. What Karla did to Hope was shameful and unforgivable. They had to carry the burden of their daughter’s crime forever.
After they left, Logan sat on the chair and covered her with the blanket well. He grabbed Hope’s arm and used his Lycan’s power to lower her pain. In return, he received that pain and felt how strong the pain was, His heart sank to find Hope was in so much pain.
“You should not have pushed me away,” Logan said. “You are weaker than me when it comes to heal,” he proclaimed.

“Nothing came in my mind that time, except saving you,” Hope said. She felt better. suddenly, unaware that Logan was channelizing the pain in his body since he didn’t let it show on his face.
“You won't do something like in future,” Logan said while furrowing his brows together.
“Don't be angry at me. I’m not well,” Hope muttered and pouted her lips. If something saved from that chandelier fall, then it was her face. Logan was grateful for it.
“Hope, you cannot get injured. It hurts me,” Logan said. The pain of seeing her in this state was visible in his eyes.
“Hmm.”
Logan ended up leaning to her and kissed her. When he pulled away, he said, “I was worried to death, Hope. | could have taken that attack easily and protected us both well. Promise me, you will never let you put yourself in such a situation.”
“| promise. Don’t be worried. I'll be fine soon,” Hope stated, passing a tiny smile to him. This was Hope's positive personality, which would bring comfort to Logan's heart and mind even in the tougher times. His mind had come to a peace and he kissed the center of her forehead.
“I'll make sure you'll get fine soon,” Logan said.
“Thank you, Logan, for being with me. I’m not alone anymore. I’ve you, who care for me and love me,” Hope said while peering into his eyes.
