Can you not see he’s in pain? How can you prod and shove him around like a sack of potatoes like that? Have you no common sense? My goodness gracious. Now either treat him more delicately or move out of my way so I can help him into this.” Gabriel smirked at Michael who looked properly chastised, but fixed his expression to a pained one before Abigail turned back to him. Rafael just shoved his hands into his pockets, his dark eyes twinkling in amusement. Carefully, with the help of Michael, the sling was anchored around his shoulder and his arm propped again. Gabriel settled back into the pillows as Abigail tucked the white bed sheets around his legs and hips. He winced when she inadvertently bumped against the immense bandage at his right hip. Her eyes swung up to his, wide and questioning. “They opened me up yesterday to hammer a metal rod into my bone so I’d be able to walk again,” he said with a frown.

She tried to sit gingerly on the bed, next to him, not sure she should. Wasn’t there a rule about how people were not allowed to sit on a patient’s bed? Gabriel’s left arm going around her waist to haul her into his side had her thoughts screeching to a halt. He was so much bigger than her, she fit perfectly into his side. “So,” he began, his lips brushing against her temple, “tell me what was so important that you abandoned me yesterday.” “I needed to buy myself a car,” she began. “I swear, Gabe,” Michael was saying, interrupting her, “I got there early, but she was already pulling out of the driveway with Edvaard.
