The Perfect Thief novel Chapter 164

hapter 0164 She was trembling and keeping her eyes on her open wound .

I wrapped my arms around her , hating how tense she was from my touch .

I pulled her into me and lifted her into my arms .

She sucked in a sharp breath as she held onto me with her good hand and carefully positioned her injured hand away so she wouldnt get any blood on me .

Take me to your bathroom , I ordered Raymond .

Yes , Alpha , he said quickly as he rushed out of the dining hall .

I followed after him , not bothering to spare the mother and daughter duo another look .

As we walked down the hallway , I heard a loud gasp from nearby .

Judy ?? Michele exclaimed .

What happened ? Are you okay ? Im okay , Mom , she said weakly .

Just a little cut .

Shes losing a lot of blood .

I need to patch it before she loses anymore , I said as I continued to follow Raymond down the hall .

We entered the bathroom and just as Raymond was about to say something more , I slammed the door in his face .

I let out a breath of air .

Judy was still tense , and her eyes were fixed on her wound .

I set her down on the counter as I searched the bathroom for a first aid kit .

It didnt take long to find one under the sink You dont have to do this , Judy said , breaking the silence .

I glanced up at her briefly before I rummaged through the first aid kit , uncovering bandages and ointment .

Do you expect me to let you bleed out ? I asked her in return .

She shrugged her shoulder , but she said nothing .

I grabbed her hand and turned on the water to the sink.

The moment my hand wrapped around her wrist , she tensed and made it impossible for me to move her .

I frowned at her .

Just let me take care of you , I breathed , my body becoming so aware of hers that I was practically on fire .

She stared into my eyes for a moment longer before relaxing herself .

I brought her hand to the warm water and started to rinse out her wound .

She winced from the sting and her body tensed once again , but it only lasted a moment .

Soon , she was relaxing again , and she was releasing a breath of relief .

I ran circles with my thumb around her wrist , soothing her , as I cleaned her wound .

With each stroke of my thumb , she relaxed even more and I notice she was now looking at me periodically .

I tried to pretend I didnt notice , but I could feel the heat of her stare on the side of my face , and I had to fight the smile tugging at the corner of my lips .

Why are you here? She asked , breaking the thick silence that started to consume us .

I grabbed the bandages , along with some ointment that will keep her wound from getting infected .

I came here for you .
