Chapter 224: Im Staying
(SASHA)
Unfortunately, or perhaps fortunately, we are not alone the next time I wake up.
"Eyyy Sasha." Something out of the shadows looms over me, and a hand taps against my cheek.
I squint at the craggy face in front of me, and even though he is an ignorant man who should have stayed back to watch his family, I have never been so happy to see my uncle as I am at the moment.
"Marco," I choke out as he leans over and presses a kiss to my forehead.
"Careful," says an amused Tyler from the side of the bed. "He is still in a lot of pain."
"No way." Marco says, glancing at Tyler. "We don’t feel pain like normal men. We are way too tough."
"That is what I have been trying to tell him myself." I say lowly, and they both laugh. Apparently, Marco is in a good mood now. Good, because after the much rest that I have had, I’m looking forward to explaining to Tyler why this getaway idea is a bad one.
But Tyler forestalls me and shoves the straw back in my mouth. I suck up the water greedily, and he lets me have more this time. I am very much over being treated like some invalid now. I feel so much stronger now.
