Chapter 0233 I dont know if Im serious about anything , he blurted , and I could see the panic in his eyes .


    I havent even thought about this long enough to know what I actually want .


    I never thought Id find my mate , Judy .


    I never thought I even wanted a mate in the first ce .


    Wait … what ? I asked , my eyes narrowed .


    Are you thinking about rejecting her ? He bit his lip , refusing to meet my eyes .


    That was all the answer I needed ; my heart hurts for Nan .


    Well then if you have to reject her , then I would do it sooner thanter , I told him , almost bitterly .


    I wasnt hungry anymore , so I pushed my te away and stood to my feet .


    Put the poor girl out of her misery .


    Without another word , I left the kitchen , leaving him alone with these thoughts .


    Gavins POV So , I know that Irene is iming her leg hurts… but Ive done 3 different X rays , Alpha and theres nothing physically wrong with her , Elizabeth Pierce said .


    I sighed and leaned against the wall ; we stood in the hallway , and we had been in the hospital since yesterday .


    Irene kept crying that her leg hurt and wouldnt let me leave .


    I ran my fingers through my hair , feeling exhausted .


    I hadnt been able to sleep ; I tried to get a few hours in the Hospital chair , but I was ufortable , and Irene was whimpering for most of the night .


    I asked Elizbeth to do numerous tests to find out what was wrong with her leg , but shes beening up nk .


    I trusted her judgment because she was the best doctor in the world after all .


    I nodded Thank you , I told her .


    So , I can take her home ? Elizabeth nodded .


    Yes , she replied .


    Im sure she could use some rest and her own bed .


    Ill prescribe some sugar pills … we can tell her its pain medication .


    It seems her pain is strictly mental and doesnt actually exist .


    If she thinks shes taking medication to help with her pain , then her pain will go away .


    I nodded .


    I appreciate that , I told her .


    Ill get that right away , she said as she retreated from the area .


    With a sigh , I walked back into the hospital room .


    Irene was scrolling through her phone , her brows pinched together .


    Everything okay ? I asked .


    She froze when she saw me walking into the room ; she put her phone on the bed beside her and grabbed at her leg , tears filling her eyes .


    Yes … my leg , just hurt , and Ethan hadnte to see me once , she whimpered .


    I sighed again and sat at the edge of her bed , taking her hands in mine .


    Im sure hes just busy .


    Im going of take you home and-  Chapter 233 Take me home ?? She gasped .


    But what about my leg ? Daddy , it hurts ! I nodded .


    I know , I told her .


    Dr.


    Pierce is going to prescribe some medication to to go home to get some rest .


    She bit her lower as more tears spilled out of her eyes .


    O … okay , she stammered .


    With the pain and then we are going Once we are home , we can try to call Ethan and see if he cane over to see you .


    I dont know if anyone even told him you were injured , I told her .


    She nodded and wiped her eyes .


    I nced at the clock and saw that it was nearing afternoon , I told Judy that I would pick her up in a few hours and we could get some dinner and spend the night together .


    I felt bad that I hadnt been around her much .


    I kind of left her high and dry the other day and we really havent talked much .


    I wanted to spend some extra time with her tonight and make up for it .


    Elizabeth returned with the medication and gave Irene a tablet right off the bat with some water .


    Its a powerful medication , so only one a day is needed , she warned ; she then looked up at me and winked .


    I mouthed , Thank you before turning my attention back to Irene who had swallowed the tablet and drank half the water .


    Beta Taylor met us at the hospital and took us back home .


    helped Irene into her room and got her settled into bed with her phone .


    Once she was settled , I went off into my own room and started to get ready for my evening with Judy .


    I nced at the clock ; I only had a few minutes before I needed to leave , Just as I left my room and started down the stairs , I heard Irene screaming and crying .


    My entire body froze , and I rushed into her room .


    Whats going on ? I asked , expecting to find someone in her room , but I found no one .


    I reeled in my angry wolf and looked at my crying daughter .


    Irene ? What is it ? Ethan wont answer my calls ! She cried .


    I groaned .


    Then Irene narrowed her eyes at me .


    Are you going somewhere ? She asked me .


    I looked down at my suit and then nodded .


    Yeah , I was about to head out … I started to say , but she only cried harder ..


    Please dont leave , Daddy ! I dont have Ethan and nobody else is here to help and support me .


    I need you ! I can get one of the maids to tend to your needs , I assured her .


    More tears streaked down her cheeks , You are never around anymore , and I miss you ! She cried Please , dont leave me again , Daddy ! Please !!
