The Blue-eyed Wolf In The Woods novel Chapter 87

"Did you ever doubt me?" He asked with a laugh.

"Of course not." She replied back. "Luna, lets take a look at you."

"Please, its Krystal." I replied looking down at myself covered in a bloodied sheet. Miraculously the blanket didn't fall while I was clutching on to Travis' back as we ran through the woods.

The Doc motioned over to the couch she had been sitting on. "Come, sit." She guided me into a sitting position. She knelt down in front of me, "Can we take away this sheet? I'd like to have a look at your wounds."

"Umm, I'm okay..." I lied. The pain in my side was still throbbing from where Dom had stabbed me.

"Krystal please, Doc's been healing my pack for generations. She knows what shes doing. Let her take a look at your wound." Travis pleaded from beside me on the couch.

Doc put her weathered hands on the edges of the sheet surrounding my naked body. I could feel my cheeks heat up to a bright red from the embarrasment of being naked in front of a stranger and Travis. I cleared my throat and raised my eyebrows at Travis.

He responded with a chuckle and rolled his eyes. "Okay, I'll just stare up at my celing, which you were admiring before." He said as he laid his hand on my thigh and gave it a squeeze before looking up at the celing.

Doc smiled at me again and then opened up the sheet, looking down at the wound under my ribs. I was afraid to look down, but swallowed my fear and peered down at my side. Blood was crusted atound the jagged edges of the wound opening, and new blood was still falling slowly from it.

My eyes widened in horror and my stomach churned as I assessed my wound. I was no Doctor, but it didn't look good.

"Honey, he got you pretty deep, but you'll heal fast once I put a poultice with some crushed herbs on it. It should help the swelling goes down, and the bleeding will stop. You've got Alpha blood in you. You'll nstart healing within the hour. Now let's lie you down and get you cleaned up."

Doc had shooed Travis out of the room so she could start cleaning my would with some witch hazel and rose water. At first it stung and felt like my skin was burning all the way to my intestines, but then started to cool off and feel better. Doc then added a warm cloth pouch to my skin over the stab wound. Once my side was cleaned and taken care of she handed me a seeming cup of tea. "Lemon, Camomile and Lavender tea, to help you relax and get some rest."

It tasted sweet and soothing, and the aroma of the herbs and the warmth of the poultice quieted my brain and all the stresses of the day and started to lull me to sleep, until darkness overtook me.

My brain went on overdrive and couldn't help but check him out from head to toe. He looked like he hadn't shaved or slept in weeks. His eyes were bloodshot, and his hair was sticking out in a million different places. But none of those things made my heart beat any slower. He was still the most mouthwateringly beautiful specimen of human male I had ever seen.

"Travis has not left your side. I finally got him to get himself something to eat right before you woke up." Said my mother.

"I wanted to be here when you woke up..." Travis groaned as he sat down in a chair next to my bed and took my hand.

"It's okay, you're here now." I replied. As I squeezed his hand back.

"Well, I think we will leave you two alone for a while." My mother said as she, my brother and grandfather followed her out of the room.

I sighed, and finally took a look around. I was in a large room with natural wooden walls, like the living room had, and lying in a huge bed with a white tulle canopy overhead, and covered in a red and gold comforter. I realized I was naked underneath the blanket, so I hiked it up to my neck, embarrassed, that Travis must have seen my body while I was unconscious.
