Ashley:

I woke up with a loud yawn, my eyes blinking trying to see past the bright light.

  Finally my eyes readjusted and I looked around to see I was in the infirmary.

What the….?

Before I had time to wonder why I was in here it all came rushing up.

  Lance and Damian fighting.

Lance bleeding then Damian's blue eyes meeting mine for a nano second, before Lance took advantage.

  Blood pouring down Damian's face his coat soaked in it.

Anger flashed through me.

Lance had taken advantage of Damian when he was distracted,  it wasn't fair!

  My wolf growled in anger at our Mate being hurt.
"Oh you're up finally!" I recognized Amy's cheerful voice. "How are you feeling Ashley ?"

  I stretched and winced at my soar muscles.
"I feel as if I've been sleeping for days!" I groaned.

"That's because you have." She quickly spoke up as I frowned "Your wolf needed time to heal, you see."
"What kind of injuries did I have exactly? " I asked.

  "A dislocated shoulder and a broken arm, a few minor cuts and bruises."

I closed my eyes and let out a tired sigh.

All I remember was my wolf getting so mad at seeing Damian hurt that she took control. Next thing I know she's charging at Lance but Damian had gotten to him first. But instead of hitting him I had run straight into Damian. Then I blacked out.

 
"A handsome young man snuck in to see you a few nights ago." Amy winked.
"I'm assuming you're talking about Lance?" I frowned not quiet ready to forgive him for hurting Damian.

  "No, he had black hair and beautiful blue eyes." Amy laughed "He was also only wearing boxers."

Damian ? I frowned confused, what would he be doing in here ?

  Maybe he just wanted to apologize? I thought. He apologized in the closet as well.

Maybe he was feeling guilty.

I groaned as all these thoughts hurt my head.

  "Are you okay hun?" Amy asked concerned.
"Yes, I'm fine. Can I leave today? " I asked eager to get out of this too bright room.

  "You can leave now if you're up to it. You're clothes is over on that table." Amy smiled before she walked away to attend to someone else.

  I slowly got up testing my arm and shoulder. They seemed to be fine.

I took a quick shower and changed into a new pair of clothes, I'm assuming my parents had left here.

  I said goodbye to Amy then was on my way to my room when I ran into Lance.
"Hey I was just on my way to go see you !" Lance exclaimed with a big smile.

I didn't return it.

His smile faded, replaced quickly by a frown.

  "What's wrong ?"

"What's wrong ?" I scoffed "are you really asking me that ?"

  His face scrunched up in confusion.
"Did you really have to pick a fight with Damian ?" I demanded, dragging us into my room.
