Chapter 8

Amaryllis

The Doctor is very pretty. I couldn’t stop looking at her. She has a perfect pear shaped body and light brown hair. I immediately felt jealous of her. I could tell she was very smart and kind. She left the room for just a moment and I was alone with the man I recognized from earlier. I can see his features more clearly now. He has what seems to be purposeful stubble on his perfectly shaped, strong jaw. His skin looked like it was dipped in honey. His eyes were dark blue like a deep ocean. His fluffy hair curled at the end. His lips were narrow on top and full on the bottom and a deep shade of tan pink. I looked at him a little longer as he looked to be thinking to himself and my heart pounded harder than normal.

“What is your name?”

I asked him in a soft voice, hoping to get some answers to my millions of questions.

“Rowan” he said in the same proud deep voice I heard before.

“That’s a pretty name.” I said with a small smile.

He chuckled a little at my response.

“What is your name?” He asked in a curious tone.

Before I could answer, the doctor came back into the room with some tools, a note pad, and some medicine bottles.

“Like I said before. I will be asking questions and then I will look you over to see what state of health you are In.”

I nodded in agreement and she clicked her pen.

“What is your name and age?” She asked in a serious but light tone.

“Amaryllis, age 19.”

“Last name?”

“I don’t know”

Rowan had a smug look on his face.

“She will have a last name soon, don’t worry about it.” He said in a joyful response.

I don’t understand what he meant by that but the doctor was getting ready to ask more questions.

“When was your last menstrual cycle?”

“My what?”

“You know, when you bleed monthly. You should have gotten it around the time you first shifted.”

“I have bled every day since I was 10 years old.” I said confusingly.

She looked at me in confusion.

“Could you uncover yourself for me please?”

I started to shake at her question. I didn’t want anyone to see my body.

“I need to see so I can help you”

Something in her voice was kind and convincing.

“Can you turn around”

I nodded to Rowan. He frowned a little big and turned around. I quickly took his jacket off of my body and immediately missed the warmth. I then took off the rag of a tank top. The Doctors eye went wide and I could see the discus in them. I’m a monster. I’m ugly. I can see it all in her eyes.

“You can cover up now dear”

She said in a sad whisper.

Rowan turned back around once the doctor tapped his shoulder.

“Alpha, she is severely underweight. She has several broken bones that should have been healed by her wolf by now. She will need an ointment applied to her ... wounds, every day for two weeks. I want to see her back here in six weeks for a check up. Her wolf should come back to her during this time.”

“Thank you, Doctor Lane. I will take her to rest now.”

Rowan then picked me up again and carried me out the door.
