I can cover them up because then I would be a bad mother. I am just about to get up when the door opens and she is silent. I sigh happily, I can finally go to sleep now,
“see you have to hold her and speak softly” she says, cora. Does that mean she’s no longer upset with Elizabeth or think badly of her? I opne one of my eyes and my hair falls over it, I can see through it. I see cora hold out her arms to Michael and he takes Elizabeth slowly. He looks down curiously and I can see her green eyes staring back at him the same way.
“hi there little princess” he syas softly, she makes a little sound and then her hands go out in front of her, she touches his face then keeps tapping it. Soon her arms go weak and I hear the smallest of yawns. The next thing I know Michael is settling her back into her plastic cubby. Her eyes are closed and her cheeks look plump.
“I did it” he whispers adoringly,
“I’m so proudof you” cora says her eyes bright with tears. This confuses me, why is she crying? Slowly I decide it’s time to stop the charade and I get up. I pretend to yawn and stretch as if my little 5 minute nap was enough. I look at her and blink,
“why are you crying?” I ask softly,
“we’re unable to have children” john says from the door. He has a pepsi in his hand that I so desperately want but I doubt that would agree with me. I look back at cora and see her wiping her nose, I feel bad for her, she has to be the comforter for us when no one is comforting her. I have an idea and I smile,
“maybe you could be her nanny” I say slowly not wanting to offend her. I remember the first time I saw her she was offended when I smiled at her.
“at the rate I’m going I doubt I’ll be able to get up in the morning, none the less go home, maybe you could watch her while I get some sleep” I say with a shrug. Her face kights up and she nods vigourously before she runs to the bed. Before she can gather me in a bear hug Michael holds her elbow, she looks back at him and smiles sheepishly
“sorry,” she mutters “forgot about your stitches”. I nod and smile, I can tell she still wants a hug so I hold out my arms, slowly she wraps her arms aaround me but keeps the loose.
“tahnk you and I’m sorry about earlier” she whispers
“your welcome and no problem” I pat her back and press the nurse button. Instantly a nurse comes,
“you need anything sweetheart?” she asks in a country voice,
“umm yes, I was trying to take a nap but I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep with her crying every 5 minutes, is there a place you could take her maybe?” I ask in the sweetest voice I could muster.
“yes we do” she says kindly, slowly and carefully she takes elizabeths cubby and carts her out the room. I let out a breath and look at Michael, he’s been so quiet and he still looks tired. I look at cora and john
“you think you guys could leave us alone?” I ask, they look at each other than at me, they nod. They leave with johns arm around her waist, I look at Michael who stands awkwardly by the window, it’s still raining but it looks like it’s calmed down. We need to get the hell away from here and soon.
“hey” I say to him, he looks at me his eyes wide “come” I say. He walks to the bed and looks down at me, I reach up and wrap my hand around his neck to pull him closer.
“you need to relax” I tell him then kiss him, he doesn’t respond at first but then he wrpas his arms around me and kisses me deeper. I’m the first to pull back because of lacking air,
“lay with me” I say pleadingly, he nods and I scoot over. I lay on my side and let his scent wrap over me in waves. He puts his arm over my waist and puts his hand over my stitched stomach lightly. It doesn’t hurt it feels comforting, to know he’s always there. I close my eyes and breath in and out. In seconds I’m sleeping.


We stayed like that, thw whole night. We didn’t move we only breathed, slept and stayed together. N the morning a nurse came in and woke me, I had to sign alexis’s discharge papers. I carefully got out of the bed careful not to jostle her. She remained zombie like, if it weren’t for her snoring and the movment of her chest I would assume she was dead. I groggily followed the nurse to the receptionist desk and filled out the papers. As soon as she gave me the ok I jogged to the nursery room. There she was bundled in pink footies she was still sleeping. And I swear I could hear a low whistle through the plexi glass. I smiled, she’s gonna be a snorer when she grows up wont she? My wolf asked, yep just like her mom, that reminds me. I jog back to room 303 to find alexis standing up and stretching,
“what are you doing!” I hiss at her, she turns around and smiles at me, she lifts her dress to her stomach, there where her stitches should be is a pink line. My eyes widen, she just smirked
“withdrawal” she said, then she walked into the bathroom and closed the door. I look on the bed and see all the iv’s she left there, they didn’t put her on the heart thingy though. Strange. She opens the door a little bit, “you wouldn’t happen to have an extra pair of clothes, would you?”
“yeah, they’re down in the car,”
“would you mind getting them for me?”
“oh, yeah sure” I forgot she would need clothes to leave, so I sped downstairs, I’m ready to leave this hospital.


I couldn’t believe it when I woke up and found my stitches gone, now I could take a shower and be clean and not have to be careful about everything. I look at myself in the mirror, my black and green striped hair was matted before I brushed it out with my fingers and washed it. My eyes healthy and brown shadowed by my long lashes, my little speckles of freckles smattered my nose and my cheeks like always. My lips weren’t chapped anymore, nut that was thanks to the hot shower I took. Everything else seemed normal of course my breasts were a little bit bigger- a knock interrupted my thoughts.
“cora gave me some of her clothes” Michael said, I opened the door and I took it,
“thanks,” I looked at the clothes. It was dark jeans and a baby blue peasant top. Nothing terrible, actually kind of cute, I still had my bra even though it was too tight on me and pushed my boobs up, it was still a bra. I put the shirt on and shimmied into the jeans. I still wasn’t fond of clothing, but this felt pretty good, I got out to see Michael standing with elixabeth in his arms bouncing up and down.. I crossed my rm and leaned on the door pane, he started to sing:
“old mcdonald had a farm eieio and on the farm he had a wolf eieio with a bark, bark here and a bark, bark there here a bark there a bark everywhere a bark, bark”
“I will never forget this you know?” I say from the door pane,he twirls around and Elizabeth giggles. I smile at her
“you like that?” I coo at her, Michael spins again and she giggles and flails her arms out in front of her. I walk over to him and pick her up in the air,
“oh you are a pretty girl” I coo at her, she kicks her legs and giggles. I put her in the crook of my arm and look back to the door where cora stands with her denim jacket and her bag.
“you ready to go?” she asks, before I can respond Michael wraps his arms around my waist
“yep, I’m ready to go home” I say as I lean back into him.


God it feels good to be back home, traveling for 6 days did a lot of damage on me. Good thing I got a god rest last night or else I would be cranky, and nobody wants a cranky wolf. I’m stretching and my bac pops, it doesn’t hurt, its rejuvenating pop that makes me aware that I still have a back. Alex pops her head above the car,
“a little help here”
“oh sorry” for a minute I almost forgot that the baby was in the car. She hadn’t been a problem the whole ride, I guess she just liked the air and the movement. I wonder what color her pelt is going to be when she first changes. I walk over to her and look down into green eyes, she smiles a toothless smile and then she does a weird sound that sounds like she’s coughing.
“she’s laughing” alexis mutters to me, then she reaches down and unbuckles Elizabeth. Today she’s dressed in a lime green footie that says ‘im not stubborn my way is better’. Something her mother decided to pick up at a baies’r’us, along with a stroller, diapers, clothes, and other baby essentials.
“hello there mommies big girl” she croons to her, Elizabeth puts her hand in her mouth then touches alexis’s face. Alexis smiles,
“that’s real nice, better than dog slobber” she tells me, I try really hard to not laugh but she just got baby spit on her face! How could I not laugh at that, john and cora are putting everything in the house, I undo the car seat and walk toward the house. Alexis walks right behind me, until we get to the door, she freezes in her tracks. Nature still growing beneath her feet she’s completely oblivious, she’s staring at Elizabeth and Elizabeth is staring at her. Alex shakes her head
“I’m going crazy” she mutters, then she smiles at me. I want to warn her that we are about to be barraged by the pack but she can probably smell them. We walk in the door and I put the carseat by the mahogany table that is also by the door. We walk into the living room and there my pack is, there eyes glowing as they stand in a semi-circle. Alex walks in and they growl at her, I look at her and see her eyes are purple
“enough!” they stop growling but there still is a low rumble.
“you are all being foolish, if you are going to judge Elizabeth then get out… now!”


Unbelievable, I knew there would be problems but I didn’t know all the wolves would act like this. So what if she smells funny, so what if her blood is not pure, they don’t treat half breeds like this, like outcasts.
“that thing is not to be allowed in this territory,” a redhead male grits out. I narrow my eyes at him but it is Michael who speaks up,
“that thing is daughter of the alpha, she is to be treated with all the respect you would give an alpha” his voice is rough and coarse, I realize that it’s his wolf who is telling
