I take a few minutes to try and let all of the information that I have learned the last thirty minutes sink in but I just don’t think it’s possible, not on my own anyway. My mind is a fucking jungle right now and I don’t know what to think or do next. I think the best way to try and start figuring out this information is by sharing it with someone and that someone is my mate. After a this involves her just as much as me so she deserves to know what I’veÂ
learned before anyone else.Â
Only the moment I step onto our floor I instantly know that she’s still sleeping. No lights are on and there is not a sound to be heard so she is clearly still in bed. And, as much as I want to talk to her right now, I won’t wake her up. She needs the rest and after I tell her what I’ve learned who knows how much sleep she will get while we get the problem sorted out. No, I need to put her needs first right now, which means letting her rest for as long asÂ
possible.Â
1 head for the bedroom before peeking through the door and feel a tug in my heart when I look at my mate. She is lying on her back while one of her hands rests protectively over her stomach. She’s also moved while sleeping and is now on my side of the bed and as simple as that may seem, to know that she’s seeking my comfort in her sleep fills me with a warmth that I can’t describe.Â
After a few seconds, I make a quick exit so as not to disturb her and head for the kitchen to make a coffee only the minute I reach the coffee machine, my mind instantly wanders back to the situation and rage once again burns through me. I need to do something, anything to get rid of this anger that feels like it is turning my body to flames. Of course, the full force of this anger won’t go away until the doctor is dealt with and whoever else is involved, but I at least need to try and ease some of the burn. My mate is going to need me at my rongest, my calmest, and right now I’m anything but.Â
Robbie, where are you, brother?” Robbie seems the best option right now as he’s dealing with his own shit and maybe we can help each other. ‘I’m out by the small lake. Is everything ok?Â
“Fuck, if only! Want to hit the gym?” Aside from our regular training grounds and hall we also have another hall that is equipped with gym equipment. We’ve only had the gym for around two years after Tony’s nagging became a nightmare to deal with and I gave in and allowed him to have the hall done out with everything that he wanted and thought others would use, and if I’m being honest, the gym has been a lifeline for more than one of my pack members on more than one occasion myself included. Not that I will tell Tony that. The fucker is cocky enough as it is without me stroking his echo.Â
‘I’ll meet you there,” I grunt my agreeance and close the link before quietly leaving the Alpha floor and heading for the training grounds. Thankfully I do not get stopped by anyone on the way there and it only takes me a few minutes to get there where I find Robbie already waiting for me. Goddess, thatÂ
guy can run when he wants to.Â
After a quick bro hug greeting, we head into the gym room and strip down to our shorts before heading for the treadmill. Robbie hasn’t said a word to me yet but I know that he’s interested in why I asked him to come here. I’m fully aware that one of my tell tail signs of being stressed or just needing to vent out my anger or frustrations whether it be actively or verbally is to ask only one of my brothers to meet with me, but it is what it is, it works for meÂ
and so that’s what I do.Â
After just a few minutes of running my whole body comes to a stop before I can control it. Running is my first go–to when I need to de–stress whether it be running in wolf form or on the treadmill but today, not even that’s working, can’t stop replaying the conversation with Harriet in my head. Why wouldÂ
the doctor do this to me? How could he do this to me?Â
