“Sally,
would you take bloods from Mr Kelner in bed 3 please?” asked Sister Bond, my
supervisor, “and then assist Doctor Wayne with the patient in bed 1.” she added
in her clipped, efficient tone.
I nodded and hurried away to
fulfill my tasks, several in an everlasting list at this busy city hospital in
the English Riviera. Well, that’s what people call Devon and Cornwall isn’t it? No
matter, I love this place, even if it is work.
I love my job, I love my home, and I love my friends. Life is good.
But life isn’t perfect, not by a long shot. I’m still single,
despite my best attempts to seduce my boss.
And I don’t mean my boss at the
hospital. Nope, I have two jobs. By day I’m a mild-mannered,
efficient, NHS nurse at my local hospital.
But in my personal life, I am third in command to the Redcliffe werewolf
pack. Yes, that’s right, we do exist!
And that is where my life becomes complicated. Not because I’m a werewolf,
although that can be confusing at times.
Especially around the full moon when I have to work with sick and
wounded patients, and their blood smells so good, and all I can see is food
when I’m supposed to care for
them.
No, being a werewolf is
easy. I’m powerful and strong, which is why I am a deputy pack leader. The complicated part is my alpha male, Danny
Mason, and his lieutenant, Simon Bunce.
You see, I am in love with Danny, and so is Simon. I am certain that Danny loves me too, but he
won’t commit to a relationship
because he cares deeply for Simon.
Danny isn’t gay, but he and Simon share
a special relationship, and for that he makes exceptions. And this is where the complications
arise.
Danny has only recently
returned to Redcliffe after a long mission working undercover for the police in
Scotland. That is a whole different
story. While he was gone, Simon and I
commanded the pack. Simon took over as
alpha male, and I was alpha female. I
still am in some ways, since Danny won’t choose a mate,
but I still fall in line behind Simon because he is stronger than me, and Danny
defers everything to him.
“Nurse
Frost, did you hear me?” asked Doctor Wayne, rousing me from my thoughts. I shook my head, cleared my throat, and
ducked my head in an embarrassed gesture.
“Sorry,
Doctor Wayne, what did you say?” I asked politely. But it was too late.
Doctor Marianne Wayne couldn’t stand dreamers, and she especially couldn’t stand me.
Here in the hospital she was a successful cardio surgeon, with a track
record of success and a skill with new medical techniques. At five feet and ten inches tall she dwarfed
my petite frame. I knew she was jealous
of my naturally blond hair, but what really upset her was my superiority
outside of work. Doctor Wayne is a
member of our pack, and she wants the job of alpha female. But in wolf form, I overpower her in every
way. She could never challenge me
because I would win, and she knows that.
So at work, in the hospital, she makes my life a living hell.
