<b>“</b><b>Yes </b>sir.” He replieszily. I stand from the table and start making my way upstairs.
I hear Lilly talking to Cole as i walk by the door.
“The inside of my wrist is the second strongest location for scent. As luna of my pack my scent will providefort and security to you. Take my hand in yours so you can adjust my position for the most effect on you.”
I cringe as he yelps several more times. I enter my room quickly going straight to my bathroom and make it just in time to furl dinner into themode
“Dad?” I hear Damian’s voice wavering in my doorway.
“I’m okay.” I pant unconvincingly as I look at him from the floor.
“I’ve never seen you throw up because of a wolf in distress before.<b>” </b>
“It’s been a long time since it’s happened honestly. I seem to have had a dyed reaction to Cole’s condition because I certainly didn’t feel like <b>this the </b>first night he came.”
“Could it be because he’s getting worse?”
“I don’t know but I don’t want to stay here too long. He needs me.”
Damian reaches out to take my hand, pulling me up off the ground. I quickly brush my teeth before grabbing the Zofran <b>and </b>Ativan I’m in need of and popping both into my mouth. We head back to Cole’s room and slowly enter to Ang’s <b>voice</b>.
“Take Lilly’s hand Cole. This is going to be rough but it should provide about eight hours of pain relief so you can sleep.”
“What are you nning to do?” I ask.
“The amount of pain he’s in from this burn is extreme enough that I’d like to use a local anesthetic to numb it. I’d like to n to have him in a medicated bath tomorrow morning and we need to get him back on IV antibiotics<b>.</b><b>” </b>
I sigh as I take a few steps towards the bed..
“Really dad. Why do I have to be here<b>?</b><b>” </b>
“Lucas, you have been given your instructions. While I was nning on waiting until after he was asleep toe in here, I can feel the amount of stress and pain he’s going through. You will silence yourself or pay the consequences.”
I snap at Lucas as Lilly starts moving around behind Cole.
“Don’t Lilly, you’re just about perfect.”
I’m trying hard to soften my voice as he whimpered when I first came into the room.
“It’s a lot to ask of you but I need you to stay still. If you don’t think you can then it may be best if I use <b>a </b>soft restraint on just this injured leg.”
“Let’s slow down Ang. I know I said I’de up after he’s asleep but my intuitive side <b>is </b>violently disagreeing.”
“What does that mean?” I bite back the growl threatening to <b>escape </b>from Lucas’s tant disregard for my instructions.
“It means he threw up dinner and took a bunch of medication.” Damian snaps as Patrick enters the room.
“It’s been a long time since that’s happened/boss.<b>” </b>
“I’m sorry.” Cole whispers<b>. </b>

1 pick her soundly sleeping body up out of the bed as Damian starts towards us,
“Would you like me to take her to bed?”
“No Day, I think Cole having her for the night again will help him to rx. He can also address any cramping if she gets any during the righe. She has in the morning so I’ll stop in and get her back to her room for that.”
I nod my head as Lilly exins her decision and fortunately, Lucas keeps his mouth shut as Damian takes Madilyn from me, I sit on the bed, taking à deep, calming breath as Cole tries to back away. I kick my shoes off before lifting my feet up onto the bed.
“Stay still Cole. I’m going toy with you like I did when we did the IV.”
He whimpers softly but makes no further attempts to move. Iy on my side, making myselffortable, edging myself closer to his trembling body.
“Cole, it’s important for you to understand who I am as an alpha, how I work. I will never punish you for doing as I’ve asked you. Even when you <b>struggle </b>toply, I will encourage you not punish you. You will never be punished for asking questions and I will always answer your questions to <b>the </b><b>best </b>of my ability. I do not over react.
If you are doing something wrong, then I will correct you. My corrections are not punishments rather they are guidance towards what I expect or <b>need</b>. Things that are done correctly will be praised and encouraged.”
He’s breathing in pants by the time <b>I’ve </b>gotten close to him.
“Lift your head Cole. I’m going to slide my arm underneath so I can get you into a hug.”
Heplies with only a little hesitation this time, settling into my arm the best he <b>can</b>.
“Alpha please, I can’t handle what Dr. Pierce wants to do.”
He whispers near my ear<b>. </b>
“If you’re in enough pain for Ang to propose this level of pain relief, I think it’s worth trying. Don’t <b>you</b><b>?</b><b>” </b>
