Viper's Run(11)

She pushed the wheelchair beside the bed, within Winter’s reach. “Let me help you to the bathroom and get you more comfortable.” Winter could only sit trying to force back the tears. She didn’t have a cell phone and no one to turn to. No one who would even care if she was missing, she was at their mercy.

Left with no choice, she let Evie help her to the bathroom. She matter of factly waited while she emptied her full bladder then helped her into the shower in which someone had placed a bath chair and installed a safety bar. Evie let her wash herself. She took over to wash and rinse her short hair before helping her out of the shower. It was another humiliating experience that Winter added to her growing list.

Once back in bed, a soft blue gown was pulled over her head and settled around her.

“Beth was supposed to feed you before you came here.”

Winter nodded feeling exhausted.

“We were afraid you would throw plates at us if you didn’t. The pain medication needs to be taken on a full stomach.” Evie opened the prescription bag the rehabilitation center had sent with them, giving just enough of her medication until Winter’s prescriptions could be filled tomorrow. Evie gave her the night meds with a glass of water.

Winter didn’t even consider refusing, and right now she welcomed oblivion. Evie pulled the covers over her.

“I am going to sit right over there and read a magazine until you fall asleep. I’ll see you in the morning, bright and early.”

“It’s not necessary for you to stay. I’ll be alright for the night.”

“I’m just staying until you fall asleep. With the pain medicine and a sleeping pill, you won’t last long.”

“Okay.” She didn’t have the strength to argue, lying back against the soft pillows and within minutes she was asleep. Evie read half the magazine before getting to her feet to check on Winter. After making sure she was comfortable and her pulse was steady Evie went to the door, opening it quietly. Viper walked in.

“She should be out for the night. You need anything, I’ll be in Knox’s room tonight.”

“Thanks Evie.” Viper said not taking his eyes off the woman lying on his bed.

“No problem.”

Viper moved to Winter’s bedside on silent feet, looking down at her sleeping face. She had lost a lot of weight she couldn’t afford to lose. He had been shocked to see how pale and frail she had become the last two months. Her hair had been cut short and it no longer shined with health. Reaching out with his thumb, he traced a tear that had slid down her check leaving a damp path.

Going into the bathroom, he took a shower drying himself off before going back into his room. Turning off the bedside lamp, he carefully climbed into bed before pulling Winter towards him. Unconsciously she tried to roll away from him, tossing and turning several minutes before she was able to get comfortable against his shoulder with her arm over his waist pinning him down. Her knee rode close to his cock; Viper gently moved it down to rest against his thigh. He didn’t want that knee anywhere near his cock when she woke in the morning.

Winter woke up stiff and unable to move for several minutes. In that time, she realized she was laying on someone. Panic soared through her body and she tried to jerk away but was held immobile, unable to hurt herself.

She was gently turned until she lay on her back with Viper above her. His chest held her down as his hands surrounded her face keeping her from jerking her head. His hair roughened thigh was over both of hers keeping them from wildly thrashing.

“Now, I can understand how waking to find me in bed with you upsets you. But we are going to raise you up in the bed and then we are going to have a talk without you hurting yourself. Understood?”

“Yes.” Winter gritted out between clenched teeth.

“Good.” Viper slowly released her to sit up then helped her to maneuver into a sitting position with pillows supporting her back from behind. Once she was sitting up, Viper climbed out of bed unconcerned with his nudity,

“You slept with me naked!” she screeched.

“Yes.” He went into the bathroom cutting off further comments. She had to bite back words because no one was listening. She heard the toilet flush then water running in the sink, which didn’t help her full bladder. When Viper came out of the bathroom he casually began to get dressed, ignoring her furious glare. Winter was so mad she was beyond speech, until he came to the side of the bed yanking the covers away from her body before lifting her against his still into his arms.

“What are you doing?”

“Taking you to use the restroom.” He answered matter of factly.

“Take me back to bed.” He ignored her, carrying her into the large bathroom and sitting her on the toilet. He just sat her down.
