“What’re you thinking so hard about?”
He blinked up at her to see her smiling at him, bemused. “Oh, nothing. Just about my appointment with Mac and how tired I am of doctors.” That was true enough.
“Ah. Well, come eat and forget about that for a while.”
They shared a good meal, and he ate like he hadn’t been fed in weeks. His energy was returning, and he was freaking glad. Had he been human, shit, he would’ve been dead four times over by now.
“Thank you, baby,” he said, patting his full stomach. “That was awesome. I don’t want to move now.”
“Got time for a nap?”
He checked his phone. “Nope. I’ve got to go see Mac, and then see Noah about that list of visitors he was supposed to get together. I’m not sure if Jax ever asked him about it in all the chaos.”
“Okay. I guess I’ll stay here and clean up, but I’ll see you later?”
“Soon as I can get back.”
After hurrying to the bathroom, he brushed his teeth. Then he returned to the kitchen. Wrapping her in his arms, he made sure she knew how much she’d be missed in the hour or so he’d be gone. Leaving her thoroughly kissed and mussed, he headed for Sanctuary.
On the way, he spotted Jax and stopped him. “Say, I’m going over for an appointment with Mac. Thought I’d check with Noah on that visitor’s list while I was there. Did you ever talk to him about it?”
Jax’s eyes widened. “Holy crap, I totally forgot to ask him. With everything that’s been going on, it slipped my mind.”
“No worries. I’ll talk to him.”
“Thanks, man.”
“No prob.”
Micah wandered to the new building, feeling pretty good. In the reception area to the doctors’ offices, he spotted Noah. “Just the guy I wanted to talk
to.”
“Me? How come?”
“Can I get a list of visitors to this building over the past month? We’re searching for a common link between any of the patients and me. This is by Nick’s authority, of course. Check with him if you need to.”
Noah waved a hand. “Sure, be glad to. The sooner you guys catch whoever is doing this to you, the better. Go on in. Mac’s ready for you.”
“Thanks.” Giving the younger man a smile, Micah headed in for his checkup.
In the end, it went well. She poked and prodded, took his temperature, ran more blood work. Listened to his heart and lungs. But he was as fit and healthy as ever, a minor miracle, given what he’d survived.
Nick and Calla had come by the day after his attack, and Calla had waved off his thanks, as he’d known she would. But he was grateful nonetheless.
“You’re cleared for duty,” Mac told him once they were in her office.
“Really? That’s great!”
“Just try not to get any more body parts ripped out. You don’t have that many to spare.”
“Ha-ha.”
“Get out of my office. And try not to come back for at least a year. Well, until your six month checkup, anyway.”
“Damn, you’re getting as prickly as Melina.”
“Watch it, buster.”
