Obsession: The Lycan King's Human Mate

Consciousness seeped in and she sighed loudly which made her cough a bit. Her eyes weighed too much for her to open them but she tried her best. The room wasn't that bright which she was thankful for and opened her eyes just a little bit. As much as her fatigue allowed. She prayed that she wasn't in the car.

Her eyes found a white, plain ceiling. Moving around a bit she was her father sitting next to her bed with his head lying on her bed.

She was safe, in a room and with her father. She was as safe as she could be.

Nothing scared her anymore. She sighed and closed her eyes willingly moving back to sleep.

It was alright now.

********

The next time she woke up she found her father to be reading a book. Smiling softly, she touched him making him jump up in surprise.

"Hey.." he whispered leaning down and kissing her forehead lightly trying not to cause her any further pain. "Baby.."

She smiled a bit more.

"You scared me.." his eyes got a little moist and she felt guilty. She should have been more attentive on the road instead of trying to fiddle with the radio.

"Hello," the nurse came into the room and immediately gave her full attention to Adaline. Her father must have pressed the button while he was talking to her. "Hi sweetie, is there any pain or anything you want to tell me about?"

Adeline shook her head. She didn't feel a thing in comparison to the pain that she felt in the car.

"Alright, your father had given us permission to tell you what your injuries were." She took a few papers and started to inform Adeline about them. "You do have a nasty head injury for which we have given you blood and we would also have to get a few scans to make sure that everything is right up there." She pointed to her temple. "Then there is a slight sprain in your right leg, but don't worry it would be a quick recovery for that. The main concern is the head injury and the fracture in your left hand. Your arm was dislocated and also broken into pieces which I believe was jammed up against the door and assuming that you moved around it cost you a bit more. There is going to be a long recovery for the head injury And your fracture for which are advised to be no tension and lots of rest." She smiled. "Don't worry about your school. They have been informed and your absence will be excused as winter break is starting in a week."

Adeline smiled not being able to say a lot but still cracked out a word. "Water..?"

"Ah, yes." The nurse poured her some and then placed it in metals draw brought it next to Adaline's lips and let her slip slowly.

She placed it on the table next to her and spoke. "Usually we would offer you a bath but for you, it would be ideal to get a sponge one. We cannot get the plaster or your bandages on the head wet at all. But for now, bathing should be the least of your concerns. At least for now." She smiled and fiddled with the equipment as Adaline and Jason did not know anything about medical science. She took Adeline's vitals and noted them down leaving eventually.

"Hmm," her father hummed and took her hand in his. "Are you sure that you're not feeling any kind of pain? If there is anything even a slight pain somewhere, tell me right now."

She shook her head. "No, I'm fine." She smiled. "I'm sorry." She can't help but say when she saw his eyes getting moist again. "It was so creepy to drive through the words in all silence so I just try to switch on the radio and get the right channel and I don't know-how. Something...a"

"A what?"

"Did they find some kind of animal lying next to me on the road?" She asked looking at him asking him in all seriousness. because I remember correctly that it was an animal for which she had favoured the car and ended up getting hurt.

"No, baby. As far as we know it was just you on the sight." He answered kissing her hand repeatedly.

She dimmed a bit. It was a lot of animals that was sure that had come into the middle of the road and had caused her to get into an accident. She was sure of it.

But then she realised something. As soon as the animal had appeared in her line of sight she had to don't the wheel a way which meant that it was not sure if the animal had been hit by her or not.

Somehow, it meant that if he was not on the side then he was not hit and was fine.

She was relieved yet agitated as she had suffered more consequences.

"You're not drinking again." Her father sternly ordered making her frown. "No, I mean it. At least for a year or two. You're not driving. And that means if I have to hire a driver to drive you everywhere then I will." He vowed.

Devastated. That's what he was. "I'm sorry papa." She whispered with her tears coming to the surface. "I didn't think that it could happen it was an animal there and I tried to not hit it and hit myself instead." She cried while talking and he hugged his child.

"Not that I am against your decision it was very brave and thoughtful but I think I would have been fine if my daughter was ok and I was paying for the treatment of that animal." He sighed. "yes to be honest I would have been great if it was that animal in this bed instead of you." He sniffed barely holding his tears in. "Please try taking care of yourself next time if ever you drive again."

She nodded in the hug and promised him. "I think the next time I will drive would be the time that I need to."
