Josh povWe both stiffened as doc walks up his face blank and I feel Lucas brace himself. "it was her appendix and we got it on time",his relieved breath of air made me relax."is she really okay?",Lucas looked ready to cry."yes Lucas she is really okay. Is Claire okay?",I nodded holding her close. "yes just tired from all the excitement",he nodded and smiled."Gemma will be put in recovery and after to her room. Do you want her in with Claire?",I sighed."yes both need each other right now",be nodded and left. My dad came by as we moved to Claire's room to wait on Gemma. Lucas sat by the bed looking tired but he stayed quiet. Gemma was brought in a few hours later and he stood while they switched her to the bed in the room. Lucas covered her and listened as they said she will be hurting when she wakes."she will be okay bro just relax",he nodded and sat waiting for his mate to wake. I watched Claire shift and I covered her more before sitting beside her. "so a pup",Lucas says loo
Josh povWhat came out of Lucas in the bathroom it was black and looked like thick smoke. Claire healed him again as he coughed up blood and couldn't breathe. Gemma is trying to sit up but gets yelled at by everyone."stay still now!!",we are all fucking freaked out by what just happened. "Lucas are you okay?",his dad asks moving closer to him."yeah I don't know what happened I just couldn't breathe and I kept coughing up blood it was weird I felt I had no control ",he looked at Claire sadly. "why is blood on your chin Lucas?",Gemma asked looking worried. "I was coughing up blood, he didn't look at her, Claire healed me",he sighed."son go clean up I have mom bringing you clothes",he looked torn between staying with us and going to shower. "go bro you look awful",he nodded and walked out slowly. I could tell by his behavior he was sad and probably going to cry in there."what the hell floated out his mouth, his dad looked freaked, it was thick and black like smoke. He couldn't bre
Josh povClaire slept for almost two full days before she woke and I was about losing it by then. I was pushing food and drinks worried for both her and our pup. She looked for Lucas and him rushing in made her sigh in relief. "your okay?",she burst into tears as he rushed the bed to hug her. "yes I'm okay thanks to you Claire, he hugged her, please stop crying ",he patted her back. She sniffles. "I was so scared I couldn't heal you fast enough and you kept choking on blood",she sobbed. He cringed."well thanks to you I'm here and I'm fully healed. We are trying to figure out if I was poisoned again",he patted her back. She hugged him tight when both jerked back."he kicked",both said amazed. Her belly was still flat but our pup kicked."can I?",Lucas looked at us both embarrassment on his face."of course",Claire and I chime in smiling at him. His hand covers her belly and tears fill his eyes. He sniffles and I hug him tight. He like me loves pups and wants a lot of them. Yes we ar
Claire povI ask for Gemma to come and by that night she does but she looks worse than before. Her body looks malnourished and she looks to be seconds away from hitting the floor."you called",she looked dead inside. She looked off which alarmed me to the core."yes we need to talk",I watched her sit and wait."yes I ate and no I didn't do anything stupid ",she mumbled."did you eat enough?",she looked away. She isn't eating Mia muttered staring at her. Look at how tiny she is now."I'm fine Claire worry for your own health I got myself. Is that all?",she is totally withdrawing from me now."no that isn't all Gem, I growl, you aren't eating, your not sleeping and I bet you run to cry in the shower everyday",she looks at me and the sadness is overwhelming to see."it is the only time I can get out my pain Claire, she looks down at the floor, I'm not strong like you my wolf won't come out it is like she refuses to and I'm stuck feeling like shit",her eyes fill with tears. "is Lucas stil
Josh povIt is early the next day and we are preparing to go meet Gemma's parents. From what Lucas linked me late last night he mated Gemma and they talked but he said she is still acting sad and unsure of them. He didn't go into detail but he said it was incredible. "hungry love?",I look at Claire as she brushes her hair."no not really",she yawns and I smirk. Last night I took her to exhaustion when she woke up later that is. I made her cum numerous times before we went to sleep. Now we are up and getting ready because in a few hours we get see the Lake rogue pack and go from there. I can imagine Gemma is freaking out and probably crying or she went quiet like she has been."everything will work out little one we will keep you and Gemma safe",she nodded and I hoped we could. Gemma's mom got poison into Gemma and the nurses swear it wasn't them. I still didn't believe them but we didn't have much to go on. My mom brings food again but Claire pushes it around and looks deep in thought
Josh povGemma's parents step inside sinister smiles on their faces and I growl."finally the great Joshua Fury",they both say as rogues enter Claire's room. I watch them and link my dad that they broke into Claire's room. He said they are right outside and to keep Claire safe. "what the fuck do you want!?",I growl loud."we want our daughter, the mom smirks, she needs to come to us so we can talk",both lean against the wall and my dad rushes in with warriors and the room fills up fast. Fighting is all over the pack because these fuckers wanted us distracted it didn't work."I'm here, Gemma walks in and her mom perks up, what do you want?",she looks awful and Scar starts saying he is worried for her."so you lived",her mother looks excited."yes I did. Now tell me what you both want",she looks tired."we want you dead Gem, her mom looks happy, the poison should of killed you",Gemma sighs sadly."you know all I ever wanted was love from my parents, love from my pack and love from my m
Josh povThey escaped and I growl in anger both caused so much drama it isn't even funny. I carry Claire to my dad's office and see Lucas walking with a very quiet Gemma. Poor girl looks rough."hey guys",I smile."hi",both say but Gemma won't look up or smile. She looks exhausted I hear Scar mutter. We head in and dad looks at Gemma with a sad smile. We all sit and he continues to stare at Gemma."feeling better Gemma?",she looks up and nods yes but looks back down. My dad sighs and goes into the escape and alarms sounding."what time did they escape?",my dad sighed."early this morning, he sighed, the cell is guarded but both guards were found unconscious and tied up. The security lines were cut to our cameras and the alarms shut off after one ring. We are watching hours of security feeds to see who entered and left",Gemma sighed."should I go to the cells?",we all look at her surprised. "Gemma, my dad starts, honey I'm not blaming you for this you were unconscious at the time and
Josh povMy mom runs with me as I carry Claire and run to the hospital worried and scared for her. My mom keeps saying everything is fine but by the alarms sounding that means another attack."focus on the pup,my mom says smiling, we got this",I burst to the labor floor and yell. Doc comes running with nurses and soon we are in the delivery room."your doing good honey",doc smiles."it hurts",Claire does breathing and glares at me. Well shit."little one, I say softly trying to avoid her wrath, your doing great. I love you",she growls." you did this to me!!" ,she yelled, I swear on everything I don't recommend this on anybody it's awful",her voice was loud and I did everything I could not to laugh. Childbirth is not funny by any means but she was yelling some off the wall stuff at me while doing weird breathing that my mom seems to think was normal. I tried to hold her hand but she pulled away from me as more alarms went off and I knew soon I would probably have to leave and go help
