She hadn’t.
She couldn’t have.
He glanced at her forearm once again.
She did.
He wanted to drop to his knees and scream until she woke up, and he could demand to know why she’d taken such a drastic step.
“Sir!” A no-nonsense voice barked from the open door. “You need to leave this room immediately.” Strong hands gripped his upper arms and corralled him out of the room.
Only his state of shock allowed the nurse to maneuver him away. He could barely think, let alone struggle.
“You do not have authorization to be here,” she said in a tone full of disdain. “And if you do not leave the hospital immediately, I will call the police.”
“Sir, come with me.” A portly, unsmiling security guard appeared out of nowhere. “Don’t make us call the authorities.”
Ty stumbled down the hall, escorted by the guard. Everything around him faded into a foggy mist.
She tried to end her life.
Kelsie tried to end her life.
Over and over, the horrifying statement played on a loop in his brain.
“You aren’t to come back without express permission from the patient. Do you understand?”
Ty blinked. The bright sun seared his eyes. He was outside. When had he walked outside? He nodded, which seemed to satisfy the security guard, who turned his back and waddled away without another word.
Kelsie tried to end her life.
He couldn’t think of anything else.
Ty shook his head. One thing was for sure. He’d be back, and soon.
He wanted answers, and he was going to get them. Nothing short of an army would keep him away.
This time, she was going to accept help from the club whether she wanted it or not. He wasn’t above using every dirty trick in the book to get his way.
Kelsie would not slip through their fingers again.
He’d rescued her once, and now their lives were forever intertwined.
That’s why I care so much.
CHAPTER TWO
SHE FELT PAIN. Sharp, deep pain, but she couldn’t narrow down the origin.
Kelsie flexed her fingers, feeling something soft and warm beneath her hands.
With each passing second, the discomfort narrowed, and her brain came online. Her eyelids fluttered. Why were they so heavy? She used every ounce of strength she could muster to peel them open and blinked against the harsh white light.
A square television hung in the corner of the room. The walls were white, with a large dry-erase board hanging directly in front of her bed.
She’d been here before.
The hospital. You’re in the hospital.
