NovelEnglishJudy's POV I should have known that's where he had gone this morning. He had sex withlast night and then left to be with another woman. My heart was shattered, and I hated that he affectedso much. Nan, feeling my mood shift, wrapped an arm through mine and gavea reassuring squeeze.
"I'm sure it's nothing," she whispered to me.
She wasn't meaning for Erik to hear it, but with wolf hearing, he heard her clear as day. He glanced atthrough the mirror with a small frown.
"She's in the hospital," he clarified, drawing my attention to him.

"Rachel," he clarified. "She's in the hospital. He went to make sure she was okay. Taylor called him this morning and told him about it. That's all I really know, though." My heart thudded against my chest; many different scenarios played out in my head.
"What happened?" I asked. "Why is she in the hospital?" "You'd have to ask him," he replied. "I'm not entirely sure." "That's all the information you have?!" I practically shouted; I was aware that I was acting stupid. This wasn't Erik's fault, nor was it his problem. I wasn't being fair to him, and the look Nan was givingtoldshe agreed with my internal monologue.
"It's not my business to know these things, Judy," he said with a sigh, his attention on the road. "You'll have to ask him later." I sat back in the seat.
"Sorry, Erik," I said softly. "I don't mean to take my frustration out on you." He nodded but didn't say anything more.
Soon, we were arriving at the school. We said our goodbyes to Erik before heading through the campus grounds. The school was packed with students who were cramming for their finals last minute.
"I'm so nervous," Nan admitted. "I know we are prepared and all, but still." I nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, I'm a bit nervous too. This is kind of a huge deal." "Hey, Judy," Lukas said as we entered the student lounge. "Did you get anymore studying done this weekend?" "A little, but not as much as I'd like," I admitted. "How about you?" "I crammed all Saturday, but didn't do much studying yesterday," he told me. "Hopefully, it doesn't affect my scores." "At least your graduation isn't pending until next year," Nan told him. "You'll be fine." "Yeah, but every grade counts," he told us. "If I don't pass these with flying colors, I'll lose my scholarship, and my uncle will forcehome." "He's not paying for you to be here?" Nan asked, raising her brows.
"He didn't wantto chere at all because it's so close to the Landry territory," he admitted. "The only way he allowedto chere is by my own merits." I nodded, understanding why this was so important to him.
"You're going to be fine, Lukas," I told him. "We will all be fine." "I have to go," Nan said, givinga brief hug. "My first final starts soon, and I need to get to class and prepare myself." "Yeah, I should probably head to class too,” I say. "Good luck, you guys!" In With a rapidly beating heart I headed out of the student lounge and went to my first class. There were already sstudents doing slast-minute studies by the treached the class. I sat dow in my seat, took out my notebook and spent ststudying myself.

Maybe because my head was a bit clouded and knew this distraction could be detrimental. The teacher walked into the classroom, putting his briefcase on his desk and then turning to the class as more students started to fill the seats. "Welcto your final day in this class," he announced. "Shall we begin?" Gavin's POV
I hated having to leave Judy this morning to go to the hospital. I couldn't even see Rachel when I first got there because she was being examined by the doctor. I paced the living room, my heart practically in my throat. I grabbed my phone, about to text Judy, when the doorway to the emergency room opened and Dr. Pierce walked out.
"Alpha, she's ready now," she announced. 'You can csee her." I let out a breath and nodded as I followed her through the doors and towards the room Rachel was in.
Rachel was sitting up in bed; she didn't look like someone who should ΟΠΙ be in a hospital. She looked perfectly fine. When her eyes met mine, there was a flash of something in them that I didn't recognize.
