Fated To The Cursed Lycan Prince
Rufusâ POV:
Even though the little boy was against it, I still insisted that the doctor remove his dressing and check his wound. So many weeks had gone by but his wound hadnât healed yet. The child was still so young, and it wasnât good if the injury wasnât treated on time.
âNo, I have to wait for Mommy.â Arron tried his best to protect his dressing from being removed by the doctor.
The doctor sighed and said to Arron, âLittle boy, you have to let me see your wound. A person who has their whole head bandaged up as you do is usually seriously injured.â
Arron faltered, âNo, itâs not serious.â
âNot serious? Then why all the bandages?â The doctor was incredulous and looked more worried. âCould it be that you have actually sustained a brain injury?â
Arron frowned at this question, and instantly changed his tune. âOh no! Itâs a little serious, but not that serious.â âIs it serious or not?â the doctor asked pointedly.
Arron pursed his lips and didnât reply, as if he held a deep grudge against the doctor.
âLet the doctor take a look.â I was starting to get concerned about him.
If it was a normal injury, he wouldnât have resisted so much. Had he also become disfigured like Crystal? My heart sank when this thought crossed my mind. How sad would it be if such a young child
was disfigured?
The doctor stretched his arm out and was about to remove Arronâs bandages. Arron was so alarmed that he jumped up from the edge of the bed and scurried toward its head. He hurriedly exclaimed, âNo, you canât remove it! Mommy said I canât remove the bandage. I have to obey her.â
âWhy?â I wondered if Crystal didnât change his dressing regularly. Ideally, it would have to be changed every day. However, these bandages looked like they were quite old. âAnyway, it canât be removed,â Arron stated anxiously.
My intuition warned me that something was wrong, but I didnât let it show in my expression. Instead, I pasted a smile on my face and asked him, âDonât you feel uncomfortable wearing it all the time?â
Arron remained quiet. His grip on the dressing seemed to have loosened a little though.
âLetâs take it off and let the doctor check it. Heâll be quick and we can wrap it back the same way as before. Your mommy wonât find out. Besides, this doctor is excellent. With his help, the wound on your face will heal faster and you can be rid of the dressing sooner,â I said in a persuasive tone.
âYes, Iâve dressed many wounds. Iâm sure I can wrap the bandages in the exact same way,â the doctor echoed.
Arron scrutinized us with sharp eyes for a long time, and finally nodded slowly. âOkay, but can you do it quickly?â âYes. Let me remove it for you.â
I picked up Arron to sit closer to me, and then began removing his bandages myself. I was worried that I would hurt him, so I was very gentle.
The doctor studied me in fear and disbelief. It seemed that he didnât expect me to personally attend to the child. The childâs clothes were very dirty, but I wasnât disgusted. I settled him in my lap and
continued removing the bandages slowly.
The gauze wrapped around Arronâs head was longer than Iâd thought. I felt more suspicious. What kind of injury required so much gauze? Besides, the wound would get inflamed and would fester if it was bound so tightly.
Gradually, the boyâs smooth and tender skin came into view. The child didnât dare to breathe heavily and stared at me unblinkingly.
Soon, about one-third of the little boyâs face was exposed, but I couldnât see any wound.
Surprised, I sped up, eager to see his whole face now.
