Voices were the first thing I registered when I woke. My brain was still foggy so I lay still and let myself come back to awareness slowly, keeping my eyes closed.
"I told you not to come here."
Phoenix. His voice was low and sharp, somewhere across the room.
"I just wanted to make sure you were okay." The voice that answered was a whine I recognised immediately.
Jess.
I kept my eyes closed and stayed completely still. Why was she here? The irritation moved through me before I was fully awake, her persistent attention to my mate landing like it always did, directly on a nerve.
"I am fine. It is none of your concern."
"But when I heard you had been in the hospital for so long I had to come." I could practically hear the pout in her voice. "What is going on? I can smell the Omega all over this place."
