She smacks her forehead with her hand, “why can’t you people just sit still? An operation is not necessary” Franny chips in “then how do you intend to get a piece of their hearts? Will it out of their chests?” she rolls her eyes “precisely! But again, why are you here? You’re in no way helpful” “who are you to talk to me like that! You’re just a warrior, not even from our pack!” “SILENCE!”
Franny steps back “it’s fine, I mean she’s not wrong but do you mind having her leave the room, I need to focus, everyone except you and her” she points towards one of the under grads that just came from studying. “You all heard her, please do as she says” they file out of the room she then takes the mixture and puts it into four bowls “what’s your name sweet pea?” she blushes “Miranda” “okay Miranda, I’m Red now I need you to work with me, I can see you have the healing touch and your quite sharp, let’s clean our hands first and then follow what I do okay?”
“Okay” I watch them clean their hands “you too King Tyler” “me?” “yes, you have to help as well” “o-okay then” I do as I’m told “okay guys, this stuff is going to taste like everything that’s wrong with the world but there’s no helping it” they both take spoons and feed them a spoonful and a half “okay Mira, dip your ring finger into the mixture and copy what I do”
Red works and Miranda follows her with effortless flow “okay Alpha, you’re up soon, Cory, Astrid you’re going to feel something coming up your throat please don’t fight it, let it come up and out and Alpha get it into the mixture, crush it then feed it to their respective mates”
Cory was first, I caught it and did as Red said “Tilt her head back to open her throat put all of it in then raise her slightly so it can go down her throat” I do as I’m told and it all goes down, then repeat it with Astrid and Carson “okay dear, heal them up then we can put them by their mates”
A soft warm glow emits from Miranda’s hands as she touches Cory and Astrid “all done” “beautifully done Miranda thank you and be sure not to let everyone know you have the healers touch, it could be as dangerous as it is great”
She smiles and nods at Red, Astrid and Cory slide off the bed and gets up in bed with their mates “put yourself in a heart to heart position to form the connection and your mates should be good to go by later or in the morning at latest”.
"Will this really work?" "of course it will, just ensure no one else gives them any medication or any other treatment, because mixing it will make them cough up blood and worsen their state, so do stick close to them until they've awoken okay, this point in time is very, very crucial to their recovery and it will also solidify your bonds"
Both Astrid and Cory nods then snuggle into their mates embrace, it may not be the right time for these kinds of feeling but I am jealous, so damn jealous as I look at them cuddled with their mates, I feel eyes on me when I turn to see her looking at me as though analysing me, looking at them then back up at me but she doesn't say anything to me.
"Miranda, can I trust you not to tell anyone of how we healed them? just say you followed my instructions and can't remember, however if there ever comes a time when this has to be done again, please make me proud, the reason I'm asking you to keep it to yourself is because others may feel they can do it too and may end up hurting their patients more than they help them and I most certainly don't want anyone doing anything half assed claiming it to be healing" "I understand and my lips are sealed"
She turns to me "my part is done, am I free to go, I need to get some rest for my training shift later" "ahh yes okay, you're both dismissed" she turns on her heels and dashes from the room like it was on fire.
"Where are you going in such a hurry?" I call after her as she steps into the elevator and I join her "I'm about to go see my guys, Joao found his mate!" "the Alpha's son?" "yeah, I'm so happy for him!" I step closer to her and she swallows hard looking up at me "don't you ever feel jealous or lonely? looking at those around you finding their other halves while you're just there carrying on?"
"No, I can't say I have" "how can you be so carefree Red?" "because I've spent too much time caring about what others think in my past which caused me more pain so I decided to stop and start living for me, not for those around me or for what is expected of me"
She bites her lip and I feel my eyes darken and the mood shifts, I was just about to caress her face when the elevator door opened and she rushed out, why does she keep running from me.
Gosh it's getting hot again, I try to focus on what the instructors are saying but it's proving to be quite difficult, then once again it fades away and I refocus my attention to what they're demonstrating. "Alright now you try, I know it will take you some time to get it but we want to see you do it and how well you handle it so we can work with you from there"I try copying what I saw him do, closing my eyes and using my hands to do the breathing mantra, I feel myself getting lighter, or perhaps light headed I really don't know "it would seem the night shift has the faster set of learners" I open my eyes and the instructors are looking at us with smiles "you all did very well, better than the day shift if I'm honest, but don't tell them I said that" we all chuckle."Alright one more time and this time be as still and quiet as possible" "hang on Harry, let's do this, seeing as you guys seem to think they're doing better than the others why not just go straight to the test hmm?" "let'
I remove the cover and my mouth waters, three baked potatoes with two pieces of steak, I can even pick her scent up from the plate and cutlery, I smile to myself ‘she thought of us Hunt’ ‘she probably thought of me, I mean she did buy a glasses with me in mind’ I can feel him wagging in my mind ‘oh be quiet’ he snickers and I begin to eat “Gods this is so damn good” I savour the food, eating as slowly as I possibly could because I did not want the meal to end, I do love the sauce on the steak.Never in my life have I eaten and licked the plate not once but four times, when she made the soup I kept the rest of it and had it twice after and now with this meal.I’m so full, I take the lift down rather the stairs to return the tray, Daisy is there eating, her back is turned as she speaks to another kitchen aid “even for me this steak is incredible and the sauce, try the sauce! I mean she used the ingredients from my kitchen, the same ingredients I use and made this”I place the tray down,
“I WISH YOU WOULD STOP RUNNING AWAY FROM ME ROHO!” he calls after me “GUESS YOU’RE GONNA HAVE TO LEARN TO SPRINT THEN SIRE!!” I respond as I continue on laughing.A hand snakes around my waist and hoists me like a sack of potatoes, I look up and it’s him “you were saying dear?” “what the?” “language” he stops running and moves me from under his arm to holding me out like Rafiki and Simba and stares at me, I fold my hands clearly not amused and he bites his lip to prevent himself from laughing or smiling “so not funny! Put me down” “it’s a little funny!” “put me down, I’ll stomp on your toes” “say please, and what makes you think it’s okay to speak to your King like that little lady?”I am flabbergasted “I am not little! Please put me down before you make people see us like this, the last thing I need for people to think I earn favours from you or something” he obliges and put me down, still pouting with my arms folded glaring up at him, this time he covers his mouth with his hand and
“Well considering I am not an Alpha I would say so yes, you’re talking to the wrong person”“Well your Alpha is the one who said he had to call you to find out what’s what not us”“Give me that!”“What the heck Roro?!”“What? I mean it’s not like I asked them to follow me back Alpha, what are you mad at me for?”He sighs “what must I do with you young lady? Why did you help them in the first place, they’re rogues”I Pause for a bit “well Alpha, Rouges are people too and each person has their own story and reasons plus they don’t seem like a bad bunch!”“Okay, I will hear them out and decide from there, how is training?”“It’s not started as of yet, Beau, Joao and I are on the night shift team so tonight is our first day basically”“Okay then, is Joao nearby?”I swivel to look for him “Oh he’s uhh hmm well he was there a while ago, I’ll have to let him call you back Alpha”“No that’s fine Roro, you take care of yourselves alright?”“Okay, bye bye”“Bye”“Oh! Here he comes Alpha, hang o
I open my mindlink and nudge into his mind and he opens ‘is everything alright? Why the long face?’ ‘it’s just, I really thought things would go differently for me you know’ ‘different in what way?’ ‘mate wise I guess’ ‘did you have someone in mind you were hoping to be your mate or something?’ ‘as a matter of fact there was Red’ ‘well there goes that hope, I mean look at Sally Jay, she’s beautiful and I’m sure she’s just as beautiful on the inside’‘Do you think she has what it would take to be a Luna?’ ‘anyone can be a Luna Jay, you just have to lead her and work with her and also your mom will have to pass her wisdom down, just give it a chance and I’m sure it’d work out, there is no point in trying to fight your fated over a chosen’‘Look whose talking miss I’m going to mateless for life’ ‘oh shush’ “you know it’s rude to have private conversations in front on company” “sorry hun, no need to be jealous!” Beau rolls his eyes but blushes every so lightly.We each order what we want
RohoI wake early and slide out of bed, the King is still sleeping soundly, I must admit it was the best sleep I've had in a long time, I feel so rested and re-energized. I go straight for the bathroom, trying to be as quiet as I can manage, I do my business and take a shower then brush my teeth, with my towel fastened securely around me I sneak a peek outside of the bathroom into the bedroom and relieved that he's still asleep.I presume the King himself does not know he's in my room and I rather not be here when he wakes and notices where he is, I quickly get dressed and pause when I hear movement behind me, I look and he's making himself more comfortable on the bed, he's rolled over onto my pillow and has snuggled into it, I'm tempted to snap a picture of this, so cute.Cute? what's up with that Red? I shake my head and finish getting dressed, I was about to leave my room after grabbing my bag and my idleness got the better of me, I quickly snap a picture of his sleeping face snugg
