Celeste P.O.V.

I flinched as Dr West took some blood.

“Well my dear, I don’t see anything wrong with you. I think you just haven’t been getting rest. You lost a

bit of weight. Have you been

eating properly?” He asked. I shifted nervously, not wanting to look at anyone.

“Tuli?” Markus asked. A hint of suspicion in his eyes, letting me know that he would be able to tell if I All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

lied to him. I sighed.

“Yes, but sometimes I forget to eat. I used to eat half a meal a day. I feel bloated when I eat too much

and I want to throw up. I have been eating by myself this past week, so instead of grabbing a full

dinner, I just eat a fruit instead,” I said. Markus stiffened at my words

but didn’t say anything. I could feel anger coming off him now that I had lowered the wall I didn’t know I

had put there.

“Well, with your history, we need to make a bigger effort to eat. Your body needs all the nutrients it can

get. You were getting better and we seemed to have backstepped a bit. I know it takes your stomach a

little while to get used to not being empty, but you need to push through it. We need our Luna healthy

and strong. I am going to give you some melatonin for sleeping. It’s a natural medication so it shouldn’t

upset your stomach. I am also going to suggest you drink some calming tea about an hour before

bedtime so it will help you

get a restful sleep. I will send this blood work to the lab and let you know if I see anything out of the

normal when the results come back,”

he said and I nodded.

“Come Tuli, let’s get some breakfast, then you and I will be spending the day together.” Markus

wrapped his arm around my waist

and led me out of the hospital.

We went into the kitchen as Mrs Wendell was cleaning up. She usually assisted Mrs Wriley with the

food. “Do we have everything we

need for pancakes?” Markus asked as he led me to a seat on the counter.

“Oh, I can whip some up for you, Alpha,” Mrs Wendell said, starting to pull some pots out of the

cupboards.

“No no, I want to cook for my Luna. You’ve done a lot this morning already. Just take a break,” he said

as he escorted her out of the kitchen. I smiled at him as he came back out and started rummaging

through the pantry.

He took out his phone and started looking up a recipe. I tried not to laugh, knowing he was trying to be

sweet. “Do you need some

help?” I asked.

“No, I am cooking for you. You just sit there and eat some raspberries while I cook,” he said as he

pulled some fruit from the fridge

and put it in front of me. I leaned back on my chair and watched him.

This is going to be a disaster isn’t it?- Kara asked, giggling inside my head.

Oh yeah – I said.

20 minutes later, I watched a flustered Markus try to flip his 4th pancake. I was trying my best not to

laugh. He had flour everywhere

and on everything, including himself.

I can hear Atlas growling. I think they are fighting over how to make a proper pancake –

Kara laughed.

“Markus,” I said tentatively. I could hear him muttering to himself angrily. I went over to the freezer and

grabbed some frozen waffles

I’d bought for the omegas in case they missed breakfast while doing their duties. I gently grabbed his

hand and pulled him around. He

had flour on his nose and looked defeated. I let out a small giggle.

He sighed, “I am a failure of a person. I can’t even cook a pancake.”

I laughed and shook my head. “You just need the right tool,” I said and shook the box of frozen waffles

lightly. He laughed and tried

to hug me, but I ducked and ran to the other end of the counter. He looked slightly hurt at my actions

but I just laughed and shook my

head, “You’re not hugging me with half a pound of flour all over you.” He looked down and it was like it

was the first time he noticed the state of his clothes. He laughed and then got a really mischievous look

on his face.

“Oh but mate, we need to hold you. It is our right.” He and Atlas’ voice were mixing together.

Oooooh, mate loves the chase. Let’s give him a challenge! –

Kara encouraged and I didn’t need telling twice. I ran out the door and

fast, but we were taster. We dashed into the woods and out the other end. Atlas would occasionally

gain on us but we made it to the river

without getting caught. We stopped at the edge and Atlas came barreling into us, unable to stop in

time. We rolled down the embankment with a bunch of yelps from our wolves.

We finally landed at the edge of the river with an oof Kara was shaking the dirt and water off her fur

when Markus rushed to us with

concern and guilt in his eyes. He started feeling for injuries, making Kara ticklish. She rolled onto her

belly and panted.

“Kara, are you OK? Celeste baby can you hear me? I’m so sorry, we were too caught up in the chase,

we didn’t realize you had

stopped because we were at the river.”

Kara, do something. He thinks he hurt us. – I said, not liking to see Markus in distress

Kara got up and pushed her snout into his arms, practically purring. Markus held her face and looked at

us with so much love in his

eyes. Kara licked his entire face and he laughed.

“You’re fast. Atlas has never had trouble catching anyone before. You’re definitely his new favorite

challenge,” Kara wagged her tail at

the praise from our mate. “Come on, we should get back. I was going to take you to a picnic today, but I

think since we’ve had our

outdoors fun, I’m taking you on an actual date in town,” Karajumped on his shoulders and licked his

face again. Making him laugh and

cover his face. Kara got up and turned to him, laying down expectantly. Markus’ eyebrows shot up.

“You want me to ride you back to the

Packhouse?” Kara nodded and let her tongue fall out of our mouth. Markus seemed to think about it for

a minute and then shrugged and

climbed on. Kara took us back to the Packhouse. Gillian was outside waiting for us with clothes. He

seemed to find his view

amusing.

“You’re looking very lady godiva right now,” he laughed at Marcus as he dismounted from us. He

scratched behind our ear and

laughed when Kara’s leg began to twitch.

“Kara wanted to keep stretching her legs. I didn’t see the harm in it,” he said.

Gillian gave him a robe for me and turned around. Kara went back to the recesses of my mind and

allowed me to push forward.

“I’m taking the Luna to dinner tonight. Is there anything pressing that needs to be dealt with before we

go?” Markus asked, helping

me into the robe.

“No, we cleared the day for you to spend with the Luna. Ruby will be moving to the Packhouse this

afternoon. Dr. West still wants to

see her twice a week as she has a few health issues and the wolfsbane isn’t leaving her system as

quickly as he hoped.”

“Put her in Maya’s old room. Make sure Kelly buys her some proper clothing since Ruby isn’t able to

leave the Pack grounds yet….”|

put my hand on his arm. “What’s wrong, Tuli?”

“Maya and I have already prepared her room. We also put a lot of the clothing that we outgrew as we

gained weight in the closet for her. It’s only lightly used and we can buy her proper clothing for her

when she’s at her ideal weight. Ruby said she is hoping to become a

warrior after all of her health issues clear up,” I explained.

“Well, it seems like the Luna has handled everything for now,” Markus said proudly.

“Indeed, should I have your assistant make a reservation?”

“Yes, that Italian place please,” Markus turned to me, “Let’s go up and nap.” he said, taking a leaf out of

my hair with a smirk on his face.
