“I didn’t try to go in the water. | tried to get out.” | felt bad he went through this but it wasn't like | put myself in that position.
“I know. Look at the bruises that are forming on your arms.”
Pulling the blanket to the side, my arm slipped out from under the heated blanket. Deep purple bruises were forming on my arms. There was multiple
spots where my arms hit the edge of the ice. “Oh.”
There was a soft knock on the door a moment before the nurse looked in. “How are you feeling?” She asked. Walking in, she had a medical boot and
clothes with her.
“Ready to go home.”
“I bet. Lettake the 1.V. out. | have a wheel chair for you. As much as you probably don’t want it, you body is still not functioning property. Until you

She had pulled the I.V out and put a bandage over it. “Sounds good.” | said as | tried to sit up. She was right, | was incredibly weak.
“I don't have anything warmer than scrubs.” The nurse frowned. “Did you still have the blanket you brought her in?” She asked Alec.
“Yeah, I'll have them bring it.” Alec sighed as he helpedsit up. Together, they gotdressed and the nurse but on the boot.

up with the blanket.
“Damn, luna. You look like shit.” He joked.
Alec growled and | laughed. Which hurt. “Even half dead, | look better than you.”
“Luna?” The nurse asked, she took a step back and looked at Alec. “What pack are you from?”
“Black Moon Pack.” Alec said.
“I should have recognized your names. I'm part of Alpha Jace’s pack.”
“Little far from home, aren't you?” Alec asked.
“I am. | am part of a traveling nursing program. It was a pleasure to meet you both. | hope next t| see you it isn’t in the hosptial.” She bowed and
started to walk away.
“What was your name?” | asked, quickly.
“Melonie.” She answered with a smile.
“Please cto our winter ball next weekend. You can ask Jace about details.”
“I will, thank you.” She waved before walking away.
“Let's go.” Alec pushed the wheel chair down the hall but stopped before going outside. “Where is the car?”
“To the left.” Jasper said and went outside. He motioned for the car to pull forward so | didn’t have to be in the cold any longer. It was still snowing.

“Love, we are here.” Alec was rubbing my back as he tried to wakeup.
“Already?” | yawned as | saw my house in the windows.
“Yeah. You need to take a shower to finish warming up. Then we will get you in scomfy clothes.”
