Parker Both Whit and Milly were much more settled today , knowing that their mother was awake and alert .
He left them briefly after breakfast , with his unit , in order to go and shower and change into clean clothes .
He mind linked Annette to see how Belladonna was doing down there , and was informed there was still no active knitting and no sign of her wolf , but she thought she was doing just fine , and that shed treat her as a wolf less she wolf for now , and keep those antibiotics running and monitor for signs of infection .
Shed stay on a 30 minute rounding for 12 hours and then be eased down to hourly for the next 12 and then drop it to standard 2nd hourly until it wasnt needed at all .
She appeared to be doing okay though she had frowned at hearing how much blood hed given .
As a doctor herself , shed clearly not liked knowing that .
He let it go .
It wasnt up to the unconscious person but the blood donor in the wolfen world .
Though her still not having her wolf , after the sedation had worn off bothered him a bit , she should do , now that Freya was gone ; have her own beast .
He thought about that as he showered and dressed , and realised that her wolf had never ever been allowed to emerge , not once , Freya had stopped that from happening .
So , that could be seen as shed never gotten a wolf and so it might not happen until the full moon in 12 days time , and only then , under the weight of the next full moon would she shift to her beast for the first time .
Just like it would have happened at 16 but been denied to her .
He would wait and see .
Though if it didnt happen until the full moon , then Belladonna was going to have a permanent scar down the center of her chest , something caused by their own Goddess removing Freyal from her , that was never heard of in their world , and he wasnt about to go advertising it either .
That was not something he was about to record , not ever .
Hed yet to call Aston and Mala and tell them what had happened .
They would be the only ones he would inform .
He had a contract with them to let them know if something happened to her .
He made that call from the privacy of his suite before going back downstairs .
There was silence on the line for a long time before Aston sighed himself , She is alright though ? 1/4 € 110 Mm , did you feel her sever from you ? Parker asked .
both Aston and Mala stated together .
It is curious , Aston commented .
Whit nor Milly felt it either and two minutes ? Someone should have felt it , Park mused .
Agreed , but maybe it was just part of the process and had to happen to re bind her own wolf to her properly .
Aston mused thoughtfully .
It is possible , though we did see her eyes flicker over the past few days , to indicate her wolf was looking about .
He sighed .
Likely never get an answer , Parker .
Selena and Freya do as they please are , well … in control of our lives at the best of times .
Aston mused .
How are things going other than that ? Good , Whit is settling in here and Milly has finally warmed up to me , he smiled a little .
It was a nice feeling to know that .
So , do you think theyll be staying ? Mala asked .
I dont know , Im still open to them living in your pack Mala and visiting if thats what they want .
Im not going to push them or make them stay here .
Id like for Belladonna to choose it for herself .
Hmm , likely shell choose based on what Whit wants , considering youre an Alpha to a pack and hes your Heir .
Have you announced him as that yet ? No , just as my son .
Hes happy enough getting to know everyone and Ill do that only when hes made a decision .
Ill have her call you tomorrow or the day after when shes not so tired , no wolf healing , so itll be slow going .
Alright , thank you for calling and letting us know .
Aston stated and disconnected the line .
He walked downstairs and collected Whit and Milly to head back to their house so they could put on clean clothes before going back to the hospital .
He was honestly just glad she was still alive , had woken up and known who everyone was .
He wouldnt care if she never got a wolf , it would likely be safer for her not to have one and remain wolf less .
He ran a hand through his own hair as he waited for the children to get dressed .
As an Alpha , he should never want someone in his pack to actually be wolf less on purpose .
But as the man that loved her , knowing what her wolf was likely going to be ; all the signs were there , he also knew there was now always going to be a risk to her .
So , a part of him wanted to reduce € 170 that and being wolf less would do it .
C He scrubbed a hand over his face and chastised himself internally .
He was in two minds as to what he thought would be best for her from this point onwards .
He wasnt getting a say anyway , no one was , that was completely up to their Goddess now .
He watched as Milly came running out of the bathroom where shed been having a bath , was dressed but now running away from her brother , Whit was telling her to get back there he had to brush her hair .
No , she yelled at him .
Parker smiled at them as Whit tried to grab her .
He had a brush in one hand , but it was pretty obvious she didnt want a bar of it .
Hed been the one to run that bath , but let Whit bathe her .
He was a stranger , so to speak, and Whit had no objection to it , having likely done it before .
Though hed actively looked around their bathroom , there was a spray for detangling hair in there , and a leave in conditioner for curly hair as well .
He picked it up and stepped out to watch them , and chuckled a little as he got to see them in what he believed was their natural home environment .
Whit looked at him after several minutes and Parker smiled .
Just leave it .
he stated he snagged her himself as she ran past him , thinking she was safe because hed not intervened and stopped her before .
Picked her up and carried her to a chair .
She squirmed the whole way .
No brushing .
She told him .
No brushing .
He agreed , and showed her the spray .
How about just this , he stated , and she nodded .
He sprayed her hair and ran his fingers through it a few times , All done .
He told her , and she smiled up at him .
Parker tapped her on the nose and let her hop down .
See , not so hard .
He told Whit .
Hed seen many times , little girls running away not wanting their hair brushed within his pack .
It was normal at this age, he thought .
Come on , lets go see how your mum is doing .
He motioned for them to head for the door .
I think you like being a dad .
Whit looked up at him as they left the house .
I always wanted children .
He nodded and ruffled his sons hair .
I missed seeing you grow up , and today I got a little glimpse into your home life with Milly .
I would have liked to have been there for all the little moments that made up your life Whit .
Whit muttered .
He knew the truth of what had happened .
I think you would have been a handful like Milly today .
He chuckled .
I was a good child .
Whit stated right back .
Mm , we all say that .
Parker laughed ..
Werent you ? he was asked .
No , a handful and a half , apparently and … he trailed off as he censored himself .
He wasnt about to tell his son hed snuck out of the packhouse all the time as a young teen .
That might just give him ideas .
And ? Whit prompted .
Nothing , I was the perfect child , he stated , and then laughed at Whits oh yeah I believe that look .
as they walked to the hospital .
