DIANA'S POV
~
AJ wasn't healing? And he hadn't said a word since the night of the fight.
But how?
AJ might be a warrior and second to the Alpha of the Moonbound pack, but he possessed one of the strongest abilities around. I was even surprised he wasn't an Alpha himself.
Healing was supposed to be easy for him. He usually healed so fast. Yet after that night of the attack and my heat bursting out, his wound remained.
"Why are you smiling?" I glared at him. Why were his teeth bared in a grin when he was clearly in pain?
"You worry too much, Di. It's just a scratch."
"This is not a scratch. You can't see it, AJ, but it's bigger than before. Yes, it looks like a scar, but it isn't."
He winced, turning his gaze toward the balcony door.
"AJ?"
"I'm fine."
It was me. Oh god, it had to be this stupid heat. That was why Mariah couldn't heal either. I needed to finish reading my mother's book. There had to be something inside that could help.
