Chapter 23

Destined is up and back! I'm still editing but the first few chapters should be there for all of you to read :)

I woke up feeling like I hadn't slept at all. When I looked around I noticed I was alone in the room. I sat up and quickly laid back down when I felt the sharp pain in my chest.

I took the sheets off if me and saw that I had a bandage reaching all across my chest. They looked slightly stained with blood but nothing major. I did the stupid thing and lifted the gauze and saw that my wounds had closed. I raised my browns in surprise. They had healed even more quickly than I had expected.

This time I carefully sat up without causing myself too much pain. I walked into the bathroom and I had to say I looked like crap. My face was pale and I had dark circles under my eyes. My lips looked just as dry as my mouth felt.

I sighed and went to the closet to change into something more comfortable. I grabbed one of Shayne's shirts and I pulled on yoga shorts. I walked back into the room and that's when the door opened. I froze in place and waited for the person to step in. I sighed when I saw Bree's sandy colored hair.

"Sage, you're awake!" Bre rushed to my side.

"I feel like crap."

"We've all been so worried." She said. "You were out for a long time and you had a high fever."

"I'm fine now." I said, slowly walking towards the bed.

Bre helped me in and she placed the pillows in place so I could sit up.

"Sage, you've been out for almost three days. Shayne was going crazy thinking you were going to die. His father had to come here to calm him down. He wanted to start a war with Silver Light."

I was out for three days? How could that be possible? It seemed only yesterday I was being attacked by Eric.

"Bre, where is Shayne? Does he know about..."

Bre bit her lip and sat on the edge if the bed. She looked rather on edge and seemed really nervous. I could tell something was wrong.

"When the pack doctor came we all had to drag Shayne out. He nearly killed the poor guy when he touched you." Bre chuckled but it soon died down. "He had to lock Eric in the cells. Shayne wanted to kill him but his father wouldn't allow it. That's where Eric got his chance in."

I closed my eyes and tried not to break down. Of course he would tell Shayne about what happened six years ago. What other reason could he have to kill me?

"He told him?" I asked quietly.

"Yeah, he told him that you were the one that killed his mate, Shayne's sister. The good thing is that Shayne didn't believe him. He said that Eric was becoming so obsessed with finding the girl that killed his sister that he probably mistakes you for the killer."

"But I did kill his sister." I whispered.

"Sage, aren't you listening to me?"

Bre reached for my hands and her eyes held a bit of happiness.

"Shayne didn't believe him. You can tell him that it isn't true and he'll believe you. You don't have to tell him anything."

"Where is he now?"

"He just left five minutes ago to the pack building. Eric came back asking for permission to come into the territory to see you. He said he wanted to make sure it wasn't you and apologize for what he did. Shayne didn't take the bait so Eric is causing a commotion."

"And Jake?"

"He's downstairs. Do you want me to get him for you?"

I nodded and Bre quickly darted out of the room. Shayne chose to believe that it wasn't me. He believes that Eric was lying about me killing his mate.
