15 1464Words Parker Parked saw her walk into the Packhouse and just knew, this was it.

Kane had just finished telling him everything was pretty much done.

That the next time she came into the packhouse it would be to sign that separation agreement.

Her office in the hospital was packed up.

Kane himself had helped her do that.

Kane had also given Bella that car Parker had bought her years ago, that shed never once asked for.

He knew she had a drivers license, had seen it, but hed never seen her drive a car.

Though again knew she did at times inside the pack, usually a pack members cars when trying to get a pregnant she-wolf from their home to the pack hospital so they could give birth safely.

Now here she was walking into the packhouse and this was it.

She was going to leave in just a few short minutes, he supposed.

His jaw tightened as he looked at her.

She was still walking around as though nothing mattered to her at all.

He turned and stalked away.

He wasnt going to bloody do it.

Sign her out of the pack, You can bloody do it.

he shot down the mind-link to Kane, his Beta, and hed stalked himself right out of the packhouse and into the woods and Vex ripped out of him to go and hunt and stalk something to kill, which took them right out of the pack at one point.

Neither of them wanted to be there when she actually left.

Hed feel it the minute she was no longer in pack territory, if he was in territory as well.

Out here in the wilds of Rogue territory all he would know, was that they were away from her.

Theyd only know if she was or wasnt there when they got back, not the exact moment she actually left the pack, crossed the border and left them, to never come back.

Neither he nor Vex wanted to know the exact moment of that happening.

Or be there for it, it might see them lose it completely and roar in full Alpha fury and drag her back to them.

Mark and Mate her all over again; even if she didnt want it.

So, away out in the wilds of Rogue territory was the best thing for both of them.

She was gone from his pack when he returned to it just after midnight.

Had sat down at his desk and listened to Kane tell him, how calm Belladonna had been throughout the process, as they erased her from the pack life shed known here.

Closed out her life as his Mate and Luna, as well as a pack doctor.

That shed refused the monetary sum he had told Kane to give her for her time here as his Mate.

That shed stated she didnt want any of it in reality.

Only accepted the bare minimum, so she had something to start her life over, out there unaffiliated with anyone.

That she had believed hed never paid her a wage because she wasnt entitled to it, had been sold to him.

That spoke volumes to him.

But hed not done it on purpose.

She had access to unlimited funds, so she didnt need a wage, she could buy whatever she wanted whenever she wanted it.

Hed never realised shed seen it like that; as he didnt think she deserved it.

Shed had everything she wanted, and hed not ever mentioned what shed spent.

Never frowned at her about it.

The packs accountant had never flagged anything, she hadnt already given him invoices to, and that was always hospital related.

New equipment, uniforms for the staff working there.

All of his packs conglomerate hospitals were well staffed and well-equipped now, and his pack was better off for it.

There was a manilla folder sitting on his desk which had her name neatly printed on it, Kanes handwriting Belladonna Harrington was all it read, there was no attached title to her name, and he knew what was going to be in it.

Their mating alliance and separation agreement, her pack photo as well in all likelihood.

Shed followed everything to the letter, according to Kane, not kicked up a single fuss over anything.

She just nodded, looked at the list, and theyd moved on doing what was needed.

Kane had seen her comfort one of the pregnant she-wolves before leaving, had heard shed stayed and delivered that pup as well.

That she had even sat one last time in her scrubs at the nurses station and filled out the necessary paperwork, to be handed to the new Luna, so that the pup could be registered to the pack officially.

That paperwork was sitting on his desk, it couldnt go to Carina.

Hed not even initiated her into the pack, so it was up to him to log it all from now on until he had a legitimized Luna once again.

Shed always signed them off as Luna Belladonna of Lustrous Moon Pack.

Her official title.

He could see there on the bottom of that registration form was her signature, a pretty flourish that hed gotten used to seeing over the years.

But there was no title there today.

Under her signature was printed neatly Dr.

Belladonna Harrington.

There was a line of doctors advice on that form, where she voiced her opinion I wouldnt recommend any more pups.

Rebekah haemorrhaged during the birth and had to be transfused two pints of blood.

Wolfen birth control is advised from now on.

Then her initials were next to her advice, B.H.

She was a good doctor, and having that Luna Calm as well, also helped to deliver pups safely into the pack.

He knew that Annette suspected that was why none had died in childbirth, a combination of a Luna being a doctor.

But he thought it was because Belladonna was dedicated to delivering pups safely, looking after the mothers well-being and knowing when to call for a caesarean.

Belladonna had studied hard, learned everything, worked long hours at the pack hospital, never stopped learning, and he knew she gave advice to others wanting to train up as well.

He didnt want her to leave the pack, leave him.

But everything shed voiced over the course of the day and not only to him but to Kane as well now.

Told him all he needed to know, she believed shed been sold to him, was a glorified slave not worth anything to him or this pack.

Just here to do as that mating alliance stated, sate all his needs and wants as a Luna should.

It was no wonder she never fought with him over anything.

That she never attached herself to him in anyway, that Freya her wolf wouldnt let herself be mated by Vex, her wolfen Mate, in wolfen or human form.

They considered themselves a slave that he owned, and nothing more.

Now she was gone and to who knew where? Not him, Kane had asked, and shed not given a defined answer.

A vague reference to other packs looking for doctors and that was it.

She was going to be an asset to whoever took her in.

He only hoped she knew how to pick the right pack to align herself with.

That she knew who to avoid.

Though Kane had left a list of their packs enemies on the passenger seat of her car, with the words none of these packs they are our enemies.

Written on it.

She would see it and hopefully avoid them all, be sensible and take the advice given to her.

Shed not announced her leaving the pack, there had been no pack wide mind-link, and she could do that was alpha-blooded.

Was leaving that up to him to do.

She had just left at some point after handing Annette the paperwork completed for that new pup.

Had left hed heard, wearing a clean set of scrubs, that had her name embroidered on the top pocket.

Something Belladonna herself had started.

All his pack members working in the hospital had their name and job title embroidered on the scrub top.

AIN, EEN, RN, DR, Professor, Surgeon, Educator, Assessor, Receptionist.

Though the oddest one hed seen was Runner; only those between 14 and 16 had that title, hed had it explained to him, there were teens that wanted to work in the hospital after schooling finished.

Their job was to run and get things for doctors and nurses, allowing for them to familiarize themselves with the hospital prior to when they came to work there officially, as an AIN, so it was easier to start their actual career inside the hospital.
