Alison POVIt’s been a while since I've been in this room. I lay down quietly, watching the monitor as Doctor Mac performed my ultrasound. Ralph had all his attention on the screen, as if it were a movie. When the heartbeat filled the room, he gently stroked my belly with a broad smile across his face.“Do you hear those little heartbeats?” He proudly asked.Of course, I would be deaf if I didn’t hear them.“Congratulations, your twins are doing well. They have such strong heartbeats.” Dr. Mac remarked.She wiped the excess gel as I sat up. “Dr. Mac, when are we going to start the antenatal class? There’s so much about pups that I need to know, and also about delivery; we haven’t discussed which one is the most advisable.”“I was going to bring that particular subject up today. I recommended a C-section for you and I have listed the reasons.” She said.“Does it mean delivery will be done at the hospital?” Ralph interrupted.“I’m sorry Alpha, but we can have VIP booked for you two. No

Ralph POVCory and I took the lead back to the pack house while Mike followed us to the same destination in his car to allow us some privacy.“Tell me the truth, did you do it?” I asked as we sat side by side in the passenger seat.“No, I didn’t…” “Don’t you dare try to lie to me, if anyone deserves the truth it is me.” I barked.He looked apologetic and started to nod slowly as if he was unsure of his actions.“I didn’t go there, but I was behind it. I didn’t order anyone to be shot at, I just told the guard to format the whole system and install some special virus on the system, that was all.”I don’t know why he thought breaking and entering the home of a shifter wouldn’t get him caught. They smell foul play from afar. That’s not my problem, my problem is why he even went that far, what was that for?“Why did you do that?” I queried him this time with much less sternness because Cory tends to lie when he’s under pressure, but when he feels supported he’s likely to come clean.He s

Ralph POVI left the pack house disgruntled and headed for the county hospital to see Melody. I hope to bargain with her so she can issue a statement clearing Cory’s name. That way, nobody can tag me as corrupt.I am doing this half-heartedly because I don’t feel like seeing that she-wolf at all. Deep within me I know I won’t be able to negotiate with her either. She will try to have her way and I won’t let her. This issue can go anywhere and it can also escalate into something worse than what has already happened yet I still drive to the hospital as if I don’t know the outcome.I check the time when I get to the hospital and sigh, Alison asked me to be back before lunch but it’s past lunch time, she must be done with her lunch by now and probably mad at me for not being present. I can picture her cute lips pouted behind her plate of food plotting all new ways to punish me for not showing up. I miss her.I would have called her but I was at the hospital’s premises and didn’t want to r

Third personAnne went to Melody’s ward to see her. She was getting ready to be discharged, so Anne helped with the packing while Melody sat dejectedly on her bed, showing no interest in everything.“Are you okay?” Anne asked when she couldn’t ignore her friend’s sunken mood anymore.“Ralph has changed,” Melody responded which sounded familiar to Anne. She sat down on the hospital bed with a thud.“I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed that. Can you believe that he attacked me at the office some weeks ago?” Anne revealed to Melody who didn’t appear surprised. There was silence between them until Melody spoke up again. “He was here yesterday to see me, and not even to apologise for what his son did to me. He just asked me to clear his son’s name. What happened to me didn’t matter at all to him,” she bitterly said.“I spoke to Cory before I came here today. He told me that you planted trackers in his car and even a video recorder to be able to monitor him and that’s messed up.” Ann

Alison’s POVDr. Mac watched me devour a plate of cornbread, gravy, spinach, and some chicken, and shook her head at me occasionally.“So you’re saying that whatever you and Alpha Ralph were doing in the grass was harmless?” She eventually spoke and I sighed.“Yes, he pushed me down but he was gentle with it, even when he pounced on me he was still gentle and didn’t put all his weight on me,” I explained to her as if my life depended on it.The cook saw us playing crazy games in the backyard and thought we were fighting. He reported us to Dr. Mac, who came over to the lodge in the afternoon the following day.“If you’re in doubt you can run some tests on her. We were only exercising. I can feel the pups and they are fine.” Ralph chipped in with a grin on his face.Dr. Mac breathed a sigh of relief, “Can we please stick to normal exercise, like taking a stroll and something less strenuous?”I stole a glance at Ralph who also stole one back at me. We both giggled and Dr. Mac impatiently
