Simon immediately sat up straight upon seeing Lucien enter. Caleb, who had been seated beside the bed, rose to his feet as well in silent respect.
Moments later, the pack's doctor, Marie, stepped into the wardroom, a clipboard tucked under her arm and a few documents clipped to it.
"Good evening, Alpha," she greeted, maintaining a professional tone.
Lucien gave her a small nod in return as he waited for the report.
"The test results came back normal," Marie began. "However, the healing process might take two to three days. Some of the injuries were quite severe," she added, offering a reasonable explanation.
"So, there's nothing more to worry about?" Lucien asked, seeking confirmation.
"Yes, Alpha. Everything looks perfect," Marie replied, lowering the clipboard with a slight nod.
Lucien gave a thoughtful hum. "You may go," he said, dismissing her with a wave of his hand as he took the seat Caleb had vacated moments earlier.
