Chapter Forty Five

*Ryan's POV*

After Ivy fell asleep, I sat there looking at her and just held her in my arms. Me and my wolf were so overwhelmed at the fact that she was safe again. I didnt want to let her go, hell I feared if I did let her go she would disappear again. As I held her I studied her face and looked over her body in a fatherly way, I noticed that she has probably been threw hell and then back again. I hate that she was hurt like this and I wasn't there to protect her. "Oh little one im so very sorry for what has happened to you," I whispered into her hair a little bit broken.

I held her for a little while longer, then I laid her in the bed and covered her up. I hesitated on leaveing her room because me and my wolf did not want to leave her alone. But I knew her mates wanted to know what was going on, and that they're probably driving everyone crazy out there.

As I walk slowly back into the waiting room I was bombarded with questions by the boys. "How is she?" Hunter asks.

"Why didnt she talk to us?" Leo asked

"Why doesn't she remember us?" Chris says next.

I knew they wanted answers and that I had them. I could see clearly that they were worried about her, but I could also see that they were a little hurt too. I know there hurt by the way she acted towards them. I would have been too if it were my mate. So I held up my hands to silence them, I knew what I was about to tell them was going to break them even more. I shook my head looking down, I took a deep breath and sighed looking back up at them in the face.

"Well she has a broken leg, but it will be healed in a day or so. All her other wounds will be healed by tomorrow. But her vocal chords, well they will take longer to heal. The doctor said there was a severe amount of damage done." Meaning she was screaming like hell, and when I thought this a pang to my heart hit hard. Then I take a deep breath and say "even after they heal, there is a big chance that she might not be able to talk again."

I drop my hands to my side and take another deep breath. Then say "thats how she is and why she cant talk."

"Thanks for telling us." Chris said alittle more broken then he was before.

"Now, please tell us why she doesn't remember us" Hunter said starting to get a little angry at the thought. Shit I knew that question was coming, how do I tell them she forgot? If I tell them that they will think she has rejected them. Fuck me, I need a damn merical.

"Perhaps I can answer that?" The doctor chimed in from behind me in a small shaky and unsure voice. Oh thank the goddess I dont have to explain it, I thought as I turned around and said "ok, please explain."

The doctor nodded his head shyly and began, "with everything that has happened to her body, I can only assume that she was hit in the head multiple times." He takes in a nervous breath, when he her the boys growl. He looked as if he was ready to run away with his tail between his legs. "Continue" I say as I moved my index finger in a circle.

"She.....she has some swe-swelling and bruises on her br-brain. Which is pro-probably the cause for her am-am-amnesia or why she d-doesn't rem-remember." As he talked, his voice had gotten even more shaky and he was now starting to stuttering.

I could see the boys starting to break even more with every word the doctor said. I wanted to curse at the doctor, I gave him a look saying give them some good news. He caught on quickly and nodded his head. "But, I be-believe that her wolf knows eve-everything thats happened to her in the p-past. That is also in-in-including about what happened to her while she was gone. S-so I do believe that in time her mem-memory will come back, I just d-dont know when that time will be. Im sorry." And with that said he bowed his head then I watched him turn around and leave quickly.
