"YOU'VE BEEN KNOCKED OUT ALL DAY."8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyBBqsnS67 維尼
At first, I couldn't see anything. I merely saw a dark-haired guy sitting beside me. However, I recognised him through his voice.8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdzYaZfVBN 維尼
"Liam?"8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAblruywW7 維尼
"The one and only," he murmured, running his hand through my hair. "How're you feeling?"8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡKa9TMEvPPY 維尼
For almost a minute, I didn't reply as I tried to make sense of what happened the previous day. Mary had attacked me and West intervened. Then...8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3SPf5dnslV 維尼
My eyes widened with disbelief, as I recalled it. He had shoved her; he had hurt his soulmate. He tried to protect me.8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlEAZCYrEt 維尼
"Is Maryanne hurt?"8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSwkTq09FO 維尼
"You were just knocked out for 18 hours and that's the first thing that came to your mind?" he asked incredulously. "Lyn, I say I know you but I don't think I'll ever understand how your brain works."8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKY3JDrHaG 維尼
"She's just too nice," Anna remarked. "I mean, she's concerned about the girl who tried to kill her." As she came into view, my vision began to sharpen and the room seemed unrealistically clear. "Maryanne is completely fine; she woke up yesterday."8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCv9MrUioB 維尼
"And West?" Hitting her would have been hard for him, as well. "Where is he?"8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡQewcxvQGbK 維尼
"He's with her," she told me; her voice sounding bitter. "Either way, she'll live."8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiqUfDSElX 維尼
"That aside, how are you feeling?" Liam asked gently. His eyes were fixed on my cheek, where Mary's claws had undoubtedly left scars.8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJhTfV4L5n 維尼
"I definitely feel better than what I look like." Liam's lips twitched slightly at my reply. But he didn't smile. Maybe he felt inclined to be serious when he thought I was in pain... "I'm okay, you know?"8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6piluRtsrj 維尼
"Only just," his voice was a mere whisper. "If West hadn't pulled her away in time, you could have..."8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡURObWP9SFe 維尼
"What is it?"8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXRCuV1VxY 維尼
"The Gray Wolf venom in Mary's claws would have poisoned your blood and suppressed your Wolf," Anna finished for him. "You would have returned to the state you were in, 8 years ago."8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡO35L1nzI6b 維尼
"Can that even happen-" I had no idea...8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuiUMMSp7k 維尼
"Yes, it can... It can happen many times; the pain will get worse each time and it will become harder to strengthen the bonds," Liam interrupted. "Only, it can't happen with the same venom."8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmAQLAowjO 維尼
"The same venom?"8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8OmwWd1YK 維尼
"Venom from the same Gray Wolf," she explained to me. "In your case, that's West. His venom was in your system for 8 entire years... Your body has built resistance to his venom."8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡbocKFUZKOl 維尼
"If, by any chance, he were to attack you again, you would be unfazed by his venom," he told me.8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDvEQOcjT0 維尼
For about a minute, I didn't answer. Instead, I tried to remember the night I was attacked. Parts of it was the clearest thing in my memory.8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzDFDHOFZ5 維尼
I could almost feel the claws shred the skin on my back; the pain that chilled the blood in my veins. I remembered my mother's screams, as the blood flowed from my wounds soaking my clothes. I still recalled the sense of laying in a pool of my own blood, watching my life fade away.8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfTKnBMTja 維尼
But I also didn't remember...8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡarLcJciufx 維尼
"Liam?"8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡDK5g8oktOI 維尼
"Yeah?" he responded at once.8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7zf8avcfO 維尼
"Are you sure West was the one who attacked me?"8964 copyright protection529ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9PyPcrITNB 維尼
