“I’d like to get you a milligram of Ativan. Can you hold the mask? I don’t want to strap it to you.
Dr. Pierce’s voice is soft and encouraging as 1 find the will to ce my hand on the mask as the lets go srit
“What’s going on down there with you?”
1 hear Luna sigh heavily as she gently starts petting my hair.
“Things have calmed down a bit. Lucas finally submitted to the fact that he’s not leaving the table until I take hire upstairs to his rooms which allowed Patrick and Parker to go check on the prospects. He’s refusing to give me the information that Fm demanding so Pm trying to work out what I’m going to do with him. Damian is still at the table. He cleared everything but his brother’s te and started the dishwasher. I’m not certain d be in fearing or ting games but he’s still here.”
I can hear Dr. Pierce’s footsteps approaching the bed after several minutes of her opening and closing cabs.
“Lilly, can you show Cole this medication? Show him the back so he can verify that it’s not opened <b>as </b>well as the dosage. Then push it through the fowl and see if he’ll allow you to put it in his mouth.”
I open my eyes at her directions towards Luna. She ces the phone down on the pillow, Alpha has gone silent and I can hear Dr. Piercer pulling items ca of the cabs behind me. I reach my hand out as herses towards mine, gently grasping her wrist where I need it to read the packaging before letting her go. She smiles gently as I close my eyes, taking a slow, deep breath as my lungs start easing up from the beginning stages of another panic induced asthma attack.
“It seems like he’s calmed down a lot since you got me on the phone.”
“His cooperation has increased. He’s actually holding the mask to his face right now. Cole, are you ready for the Ativan?”
I bring the mask away from my face and open my mouth, allowing her to drop it in.
“Demetri, when he got to the top of the steps with Madilyn and Ang, he begged me to tell you not to physically punish Lucas. That no one deserves to gs through that. What did he tell you?”
I can hear Alpha sigh over the phone. I tense up knowing that alphas don’t like being told what to do with their pack.
“His pack’s discipline structure is very different from ours, there’s no mercy or consideration towards age or rank. It doesn’t surprise me that he would make such a request. I can’t promise that I won’t physically punish Lucas, as the information that Cole provided me is extremely dangerous for the girt involved but I am going to give Lucas the opportunity to avoid it. I’m sorry Cole. I don’t expect you to understand but that’s the best I can do. Let me know when he’s asleep. I’ll bring Lucas up and then grab you and Ang. We will all meet downstairs in themon room to discuss what happened.”
“I’ll see you in a little while then.”
Luna hangs up the phone as Dr. Pierce takes the mask and puts it away.
“Just breathe normally.” She speaks leaning over near my ear. I feel her press the stethoscope gently against my back<b>, </b>I’m surprised that I’ve calmed down so quickly. I guess hearing the alpha say I’ve done fothing wrong was something I needed, although I’ve had plenty that hurt me for no reason.
“You’re still tight but better than when you first faid down. I’m sorry to create pain after you’ve settled down so well your leg. Tomorrow you need to take another medicated bath. I’ll bring you downstairs and let you soak in it for a while.”

<b>I’ve </b>tensed up as she talks. Even with her touch being gentle, it’s still difficult <i>for </i>me to feel her lift my leg to put the pillow between any knees so she can work without me moving around..
