Whit looked relieved to see her awake and Milly cried a lot as she stood on the chair next to her bed , where Parker had placed her and stayed her , to keep her from climbing up on the bed , explained to her that she shouldnt , stated the words Mummys not so well , how about your hold her hand instead .
Which Milly had looked up at him and then nodded tearfully , but done as she was asked , and hed stood there and patted Millys back .
Annette had come in and seen the children were up and awake and told her shed wait on the explanation until later .
She understood that , as she didnt want to upset the children , who already looked upset , she didnt want Whit or Milly to hear the details , and she knew they werent going to be .
Not considering she had an incision down the middle of her chest and a clear dressing over the top of it .
She had internal sutures from what she could tell .
It wasnt often youd find a wolf male or female with a scar like what she was going to have .
It wasnt all that often one of their Kind needed to have surgery like shed had either .
She didnt even know what had happened and could only guess at it until the children were gone from the room .
That didnt happen until it was breakfast time and Parker insisted on them going to the packhouse with him for that , to let her be checked on by the doctor and give her some more rest .
Shed smiled at him and thanked him .
Hed nodded , knew she couldnt mind link to Annette or himself to get answers and was likely protecting both Whit and Milly from hearing something they didnt need to at their age .
It was nice to see him just pick Milly up and her little girl sit comfortably on his hip like she belonged there .
Hed managed to distract her from being worried about leaving the room by asking her about what kind of pancakes she wanted for breakfast .
Whit had chimed in and talked happily about Milly being able to have her favourite blueberry pancakes , told her that they couldnt get them here in the hospital , only in the packhouse , teasingly stated , Not even dad can make them .
Milly had looked at Parker curiously , and hed shaken his head .
and theyd headed off to get breakfast .
Hed looked at her before leaving the room , and shed nodded Ill be fine .
And hed told her € 100 hed be back after breakfast as Annette had come into the room and closed the door behind her .
How bad was it ? she asked right away , touching her chest .
Bad , you came in with a broken sternum and a collapsed lung , four broken ribs .
One of the sharp ends of your second rib made a 0.5cm tear in your left ventricle , which our surgeon had to repair .
There was a lot of bleeding and you had to have blood transfusions .
She sighed and looked at Bella .
Your heart stopped beating at one point , and we had to perform CPR .
She was staring at Annette now , more than a little horrified .
How much do the children know ? she asked .
Milly , nothing .
Parker opted not to tell her , something about she has trauma herself and is too small to understand as well .
She , I believe , was told you were sick and sedated for a day because you needed sleep .
What ? Wait , an entire day ? she frowned now .
Mm , I kept you sedated for 24 hours post surgery .
Its quite common to do so , it helps with the healing process .
The surgery itself ? she asked .
Follow new episodes on the
Just over six hours .
Its Monday , Bella .
Annette stated .
That was something to think about .
Shed lost a day and a half .
It had been Saturday when shed freaked out completely on the new moon .
Um , okay , how long did I die for ? she murmured .
