The Alpha’s Rejected Bride
Chapter 15

I'm rigid in my spot. Looking at prince Rayan. He looks pissed. His angry eyes are staring at his brother "Good. You're here," Jasper laughs.

"Can you help us here? Seems my button got caught in her hair," Prince Rayan seems hesitant but marches towards us. I swear I almost felt him stiff my hair. He helps us out of the situation and I sigh. The brothers are standing next to each other, looking at me.

Jasper is smiling while the oldest brother just looks irritated as usual.

"What are you doing here?" Rayan grits his teeth. Jasper casually walks to the sofa opposite my bed and sits.

"I'm here to see how our lady Lucy is faring this wonderful day," I blush slightly at that. Rayan notices

and squints his eyes.

"And you, brother,"

Rayan doesn't answer, his gaze is on me.

"How are you?" He asks me. I clear my throat.

"I'm better today," I answer.

"Delish told me you saved me, for that, thank you,"

He nods and takes a seat next to his brother. I notice they have the same sapphire eyes and similar noses, no doubt both princes are hot.

"And her legs?" He's asking Jasper. I roll my eyes like I'm right here!

"The doctors said it will take her time to get her legs working," he says.

"Do you feel anything now?" Rayan asks.

"Yes, but they are heavy and weak," I respond.

Rayan gets up and walks closer to me, crossing his arms on his chest.

"But you can feel something now, that's good," he says. I nod. Rayan stares into my eyes and it's like everything is blurring as I gaze into his sapphire orbs. A clearing of the throat startles us.

"Aren't you two just sweet?" Jasper says he is smiling gently at us.

"No one told me about her legs being heavy," I sigh. Rayan talks to me as if I'm not there.

"Heavy legs may be caused by an underlying vascular condition such as superficial venous insufficiency but in this case, it was because of the fall,"

Jasper is talking about medical terms. The way he speaks is fluent. I can understand most of it because

I'm a medical student in my pack or was.

Rayan is nodding at what his brother is saying.

I bite my lips nervously. He says I'll walk but it's going to take some time. And I have to do a lot of

physiotherapies and he already made arrangements for that.

"When will she start her physio?" Rayan inquires.

"In two days, that's when Misheck gets back from Ethiopia,"

"I don't like that at all," we both stare at Rayan. He has a disapproving look.

"I don't like that at all," we both stare at Rayan. He has a disapproving look.

"He's the best and we only want the best for lady Lucy, right?"

Jasper says, eyeing his brother.

Rayan seems to be in turmoil. After a while grumbles an okay. Why doesn't he want me to get treatment from Misheck?

"Will he help me?" I ask in a quiet voice. Jasper smiles Charmingly.

"Yes, he is also a... Friend," he adds. Sending a sly smile Rayan's way.

Jasper kisses my cheek softly and a growl resonates from Rayan's chest.

He pretends to clear his throat then bows and leaves with his brother.

When they exit, I take the time to rest.

I close my eyes and sleep. I woke up in the mid-afternoon. The time says 3 pm. My stomach growls, it's been a while since I ate.

I only had breakfast because I was feeling full at the time.

The door opens and Enol walks in. Behind him is a beautiful girl in a small blue uniform. She is tall, her hair is blonde with big honey brown eyes.

She smiles cheerfully at me and puts a tray of food on the table.

Enol smiles and bends to kiss my cheek.

"How are you feeling?"

We exchange pleasantries.

"Hello, lady Lucy. I'm Rhodes," The woman waves. She introduces herself.

"Hello," I smile.

Enol plops into a couch

"Rhodes will be your assistant,"

"Assistant?" I ask, and give an o-face in realization. I can't walk so I'll need assistance to do things.

Lately, it's the nurses who help me. She gives me a quick introduction of herself and then asks

"lady Lucy, how old are you?"

"I'm twenty," I respond. She smiles

"I'm the older, I'm 22,"

she says and claps her hands

"First agenda of the day is..." she trails dramatically.

"Shopping! We have the royal card," she takes out a black card from wherever.

I nod and start to eat the many foods on the tray

Rhodes and Enol are friends and they get along well despite their five-year-old difference.

The youngest prince is fun and he tells me all the trending music. He likes hip-hop and rap. Rhodes Is busy on her tablet, showing me different kinds of clothes. Some I approve and others I don't. She has the energy to pick. I notice that she only selects the best-branded clothes and the price tags are insane! She really can get along well with Naomi. My heart stung at the thought of her.

"This is a nice dinner dress for a formal gathering," she smiles, showing a burgundy dress. "This is a nice dinner dress for a formal gathering," she smiles, showing a burgundy dress. "This one too," she murmurs to herself.

"Do you have accessories?" Rhodes asks but doesn't give me the chance to answer.

"I'll get them. We'll go for a proper shopping spree once you have fully recovered,"

I nod and continue listening to music.

"That's Tupac, I like his music too," Enol informs me, singing along to the lyrics of the rap.

I never listened to rap a lot, I was more into classic soft music like Westlife, Toni Braxton, Christina Perri, Celine Dion, Whitney Houston, and Elton John.

I'm a hopeless romantic, don't judge. I love to love but I'm not so sure anymore if I want it for myself. The day is going well and the chef even sent us pizza.

We have our little party in my room.

Enol smuggled alcohol but Rhodes got it saying he is too young to drink, however, he had some, and Rhodes drank the rest.

"Want a shot?" Enol asks, he has that daring expression on his face. I shake my head negatively. "No, my system has too many meds and I hate drinking. I'm a lightweight." I giggle. Everyone back home knew not to get me alcohol because I'll get drunk and start performing. My Dad would punish all my friends for letting me drink.

We are having so much fun! Rhodes keeps telling me about the prince's mischief as a kid and how often they got in trouble with their parents. "Remember when Jasper brought a wild alpaca into the house?" Rhodes laughs. I was told that Jasper was

very mischievous growing up. He loved to play pranks on everyone and only stopped when he went to

medical school. No wonder he seemed knowledgeable about medical stuff.

He is a doctor by profession but also active in the Royal business sector. Rayan is a businessman and President of Altamonte Group, their family company.

"Oh, the veterinarian faze! The royal castle was full of animals!" Enol laughs.

"The stampede that ruined the Christmas Eve party six years ago!" He exclaims.

"Dr. Waters was so mad,"

We continue to chat, mostly them and I listen. They don't talk much about Rayan, shame, because he's the one I want to hear about most.

Enol and Rhodes are dancing, they are drunk now and I'm laughing at their moves "Smooth," I praise.
