“Oh, is that right little wolf?” I say walking over to the bars and putting my hands in my jean pockets.
“It is. He would never hurt me or our pup. Would you?” I can’t believe she just asked that.
“Of course, I wouldn’t!” I say quickly.
“Good, I unlocked the cage while you slept. I’m going to shower then I need to see Doctor Lee for a baby scan. Join me if you’re not too scared.” With that she leaves the cells and heads upstairs.
She’s goading me into leaving. I’m still not sure it’s a good idea. I sit back down on the bed and put my head in my hands.
“You’re an idiot, Alpha.” Rick says to me. I shoot my head up and look at him. I didn’t even hear him come into the cells.
“That’s how you speak to your Alpha?” I say putting my head back in my hands.
“It is now, since he started acting like an idiot.” He pulled up the chair Anna slept in and sits down.
“Alright, I’ll bite. How am I an idiot?” I ask him
“Well, you have a perfectly willing mate, she’s round with your pup and after everything she has gone through, she should want anything but to be around men. Yet here she is, sleeping in the cells so she can be close to you. Some wolves would kill for what you have, for the ease of it. Hell, just for the fact that you have a mate who wants you. So, like I said…Idiot.” I get off the bed and walk to the cage doors.
“I should beat your ass for talking to me like that.” He laughs at me.
“You would have to come out of that cell to do that.” He goads.
“I take it stuff with Eliza still isn’t going well?” I feel for Rick I really do; he found his mate in a condition no one would want to find anyone. let alone their mate.
“The same, she wants me to reject her. I’ve told her I can’t yet. She’s too weak.” I look at him as he says this.
“So…you lied to her?”
“Of course. I did! I need time to show her I’m different from those men she met in that farmhouse.” I can’t say I disagree with his logic.
“Anything I can do to help?”
“You can’t help anyone sat on your ass in a cell,” I take the bait and open the cell, I slowly step out of it. I pat him on the shoulder as I pass.
“Call me an idiot again and I will beat your ass.” His laughter follows. me through the basement and up into the kitchen.
Walking into the kitchen I see my mother and Anna sat at the kitchen table, heads together and talking low. Anna has changed into some grey leggings, one of my black t–shirts and a pair of flip flops, her hair is in a messy bun piled onto the top of her head.
“And what are my two favourite ladies talking about?” Both of their heads swing to me, and they both offer me smiles.
“Oh Henry, I’m glad to see you up and about.” My mother makes it sound like I’ve been in my sick bed rather than locked away for the pack’s safety. I take a seat opposite Anna and see she has a daily photo album in her hands.
“What you got there, little wolf?”
“I told Momma Beth about a dream I had, and she got this out.” She turns the album around to me and points to a picture of my great great grandmother, “this was the lady in my dreams.”
“You sure it was here?” How can she dream about someone she has never met?
“It was her! I swear it, I talked to her just like I’m talking to you now.” I believe her but I don’t know how it’s possible to dream about someone you don’t know.
“She was the last Omega the Swfitmane pack had,” my mother says. while sipping on a coffee. “She was a great woman, or so the stories. go. She could heal pack members with the touch of her hand.”
“So, she was a medicine woman?” I ask.
“No, she literally healed them with the touch of her hand. I never saw it of course but the pack kept her stories alive over the years.” Mother sounds very convinced, I’m sceptical it sounds like campfire stories if you ask me.
“Alright, well there is nothing we can do about a woman long dead.
Anna has a pup appointment to get to.” I stand up and offer my hand to
Anna.
