Gavin could finally sit up on the hospital bed after a very long time.
He had cleaned himself and allowed the nurse to dress his wound, which was slowly improving.
But a gnawing feeling clawed at him and he didn't know why he had this unease.
His stay in the hospital was taking forever, and not being able to communicate with Jace or any of Maverick's men to get a heads up on what was really going on made him even more restless.
Surely, Maverick had no intention of leaving him here any longer than necessary without arranging his discharge as soon as possible?
With El-Romano and many of their enemies lurking in the shadows, waiting for the right moment or angle to strike again, his being here till now was a very bad idea.
"I hope I'm not hurting you, sir..." The nurse who had been tending to him and cleaning his wounds asked, her eyes glued to the disturbed expressions Gavin was making without even knowing.
