2/2 Chapter 0200 Chapter 0200 +25 BONUS Whether or not he believed me , I wouldnt be able to keep it to myself .
The anxiety I felt at the prospect of spending time with Diana wasnt entirely tied to her attitude toward Alexander or at least , that was all I could be certain of .
There was no other reason I should feel uneasy around her … was there ? So , are you done with your workout ? Alexanders question pulled me from my spiraling thoughts .
Yes , I confirmed , shaking off the lingering tension .
I need to head home soon .
I have an occupational therapy appointment today , and I dont want to be late .
How is that going ? he asked , his curiosity genuine .
Do you feel its helping ? I think it is , I said thoughtfully .
But I cant be certain until theres some undeniable sign of progress .
Youll get your wolf back , he said , his voice steady and sure .
And if theres anything more I can do to help , all you need to do is ask .
Youve already done so much , I said softly , smiling at him .
Ill speak to you again soon , Alexander said , his expression warm but serious .
Have a good day , Ella .
And keep your guard up .
I will , I replied , though a shiver ran down my spine at his parting words .
I couldnt quite shake the unease as I showered , dressed , and got in the car to head back to my home territory .
Thoughts of danger lurking around every corner lingered in my mind , following me all the way to the therapists office .
By the time I arrived , I was a little late .
The receptionist wasnt at her desk , so I left a brief note to announce my arrival and made my way toward the therapists office .

As I approached the door , hushed voices drifted out , stopping me in my tracks .
I hesitated , not wanting to interrupt if she was with another client .
Standing there , debating whether to knock or retreat , I started to pick up on the words filtering through the door .
Royals are always spoiled , my therapists voice said, her tone clipped and cold .
Regardless of their age .
But shes a grown woman and still behaves this way ? Shameful I frowned , startled by the harshness of her words .
Who could she be talking about ? No other voice responded , and I wondered if she was on the phone .
My pulse quickened , the unease from earlier sharpening into something more personal .
Finally , I worked up the nerve to step forward and knocked lightly on the doorframe .
Miss Rowan , she said , her voice suddenly louder and more polished , as if catching herself .
You made it after all .
I was beginning to wonder .
Into her phone , she added , Well talk soon , before ending the call and slipping it into her pocket .
Is everything all right ? she asked briskly , her eyes scanning me .
What was the holdup ? I had an appointment in the capital first thing this morning , and it ran a little late , I replied , forcing a polite tone .
I see , she said , her expression neutral but her shoulders tense .
Well , Id appreciate it if you could call next time to let me know you still plan on coming .
11 Of course , I said quickly .
It was inconsiderate of me not to .
I just didnt realize the time until I was already here .
11 7/2 +25 BONUS Chapter 0200 She nodded curtly , opening her laptop and pulling up my file .
I couldnt help but notice the tightness in her movements , as though she were still annoyed .
The words I had overheard echoed in my mind .
Was she talking about me ? I tried not to take it personally .
Perhaps she was simply irritated by my tardiness , and her comments were a momentary venting of frustration .
She wasnt wrong there were plenty of children of Alphas who fit the description shed given , spoiled and entitled .
Still , shameful seemed harsh if it was just about being late .
Or maybe I was being oversensitive .
For all I knew , she hadnt been talking about me at all .
I decided it was best to pretend I hadnt heard anything and continue as normal .
But a faint unease remained , curling at the edges of my thoughts .
