CooperYou get two today. For those who don't know, I'm in the path of a hurricane, expecting to lose power today. It may be a couple of days before I'm able to update again.

YaraIt’s been too long since I’ve let Annika out to run. With the number of classes that I’m taking and the heavy schedule I’m keeping at the university, there isn’t a lot of time to eat, much less let Annika run. But I have to let her out. She’s becoming more and more restless.‘School is boring. Humans are boring. I want to do something fun,’ she grumbles in my head.‘We’re going for a run, Annika. Calm down.’‘Next time, don’t wait so long.’It’s been a couple of months since I took her out. She’s right, it’s been too long. But I know how the packs fight, and I haven’t wanted to risk getting in the middle of a battle, or worse, getting caught by Simon.‘I’m too smart for him to catch us. Besides, he has no idea that we’re still so close to the pack.’By ‘so close’ she means two hours, but it is too close. A wolf can run nearly as fast as a car, and when that wolf is on the hunt? Goddess forbid anyone gets in their way.In the past, when I’ve taken Annika out to run, I’ve taken her
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 2: Mate
WarrenI can’t believe that Arric and I got caught in this bear trap. Fucking Brady! I know he’s the one who set this trap. He knew that he and his pack would retreat this way. I raced around, attempting to cut off their escape route, but I’d ended up caught in the trap.I know my pack will come back for me, but they’re in a battle and I’ve been waiting for them to find me for hours. When I wasn’t able to cut Brady off, they continued following his pack, hunting them down like the fucking dogs they are.I knew immediately that I couldn’t shift. While I could use my hands to spring the trap, it was too risky. I wasn’t willing to lose my leg and therefore my rank as Alpha. While the pain is significant, Arric and I are strong Alphas, and I know it's only a matter of time before the pack finds me and gets me out of here.We’d been struggling with a way to get the damn trap off when we’d smelled her. I’ve been looking for my mate for over ten years and now, here, in the middle of the fore
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 3: Doctor
WarrenCharlie orders two wolves to flank my mate, keeping her safe, but also making sure she follows my order.‘Alpha?’ Charlie asks in the mind link.‘She’s my mate.’‘Oh shit.’‘Yeah.’‘Does she know? She doesn’t act like she recognizes you as her mate.’‘I’m not sure. She’s a lone wolf, but she’s going to school for human and veterinary medicine.’He turns and looks at her. “Wow. A smart one.’‘Apparently.’‘What did she say about your leg?’‘That I need surgery.’‘Well, no offense but I could have told you that.’‘Let’s see what she says when we get to the pack. And find her a shirt. I don’t like her walking around our warriors with no clothes on.’He takes off, rushing toward our pack lands. When he returns, his wolf carries a shirt to her in his mouth. I watch while she looks up at me.“We’re about to enter my pack. You’re an unmarked, unknown, young female. I thought you might like a shirt to put on to cover yourself,” I say.If she says no, I’ll insist, but I’m hoping she’ll
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 4: No Sedation
YaraI’m not sure if Alpha Warren brought me here because he recognized me as his mate and he didn’t have the strength to reject me in the woods, or if he knew that his pack doctor was well past his retirement years. Either way, I’m here and since I am, I’ll help this Alpha. This is the reason I chose medicine. He doesn't have to lose his leg. It will take a lot of effort on my part, but I'm excited to finally get to work on a werewolf, an Alpha no less.“I’m assuming you want to do this now, Alpha?” I ask him.“Yes, the sooner the better.”“Okay.” I give him the list of items that I’ll need to get his bones put back together properly. “Oh, and we’ll need to sedate you,” I say, looking around the room to see how they have their hospital rooms set up. “Is this where…”“No,” Alpha Warren says. I turn to look at him.“No?”“No sedation.”“Okay then, a nerve block, I’ll just need…”“No,” he says again.“Alpha, please, I’m going to have to wash the area, scrub it clean, I’m going to cut yo
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 5: Surprising News
WarrenAs much pain as I’m in, I’m enjoying watching and talking to my mate. She’s unlike any woman or she-wolf I’ve ever met. Besides the crazy notion that I would reject her, she’s funny. I love how she’s constantly murmuring to herself, talking to herself as if no one else can hear her. I can hear every word and without being marked, it’s a good second option to knowing what’s going on inside that interesting mind of hers.Her face is nearly as expressive as her murmurs. She hasn’t learned or doesn’t care about hiding her facial expressions. Once again, I find it refreshing. She isn’t trying to be coy or impress me because I’m an Alpha. On the contrary, it’s almost as if she’s trying to get away from me BECAUSE I’m an Alpha. It's not going to happen. I’ve searched for this little doctor too long to let her go now.“To answer your question, Charlie, Dr. Yara here is piecing me back together, slowly and painstakingly, which is preferable to Dr. Stevens plan which was to remove my leg
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 6: Brave
YaraReplacement? I can’t be a replacement. I’m not staying. As soon as Alpha…as soon as Warren’s leg is done, I’m out of here. I glance up at the broody Alpha and wonder if that’s true. Is he going to let me go?The news about Simon has me worried. If there is a paper trail of his father helping me though medical school…he’ll find me.“Arric?” I say distractedly, holding the bones together while he heals them.I have to get my car, my clothes. I have to get back to school, I’m a resident, I can’t just up and leave.“Tell me where your car is and I’ll have someone go get it. Same with your clothes. As far as your schooling goes, we’ll have to talk about you taking classes online and working your ‘residency’ did you call it, here,” Warren says.I frown at him. “How did you…?”“You were talking to yourself. It wasn’t hard to hear you.”“I can’t leave school, Warren,” I say, looking at him like he’s crazy.“I didn’t say you’d be leaving school. I said you’d be doing your residency here.
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 7: Car
CharlieI can see why our Alpha is intrigued with his mate. She’s a feisty little thing. I am, however, surprised that he’s not putting her in line for all of the things she’s muttering under her breath. On the contrary, he seems to find it amusing.Before Dr. Yara came out and told me that Alpha Warren needed guards on his room, he had mind linked me telling me that I needed to send some people to get her clothes and her car.‘Make sure you scan it for trackers,’ he’d said.When she walks out of Alpha’s room, she looks like she was made to be the head doctor of a pack hospital. She may lack confidence in certain things, but medical knowledge and concern for her patients isn’t one of them.“Dr. Yara, Alpha Warren asked me to get your clothes and your car. If you’d tell me where they are, I’ll be happy to go get them and bring them here.”“That’s not necessary. As soon as I have Warren’s leg put back together, I’ll be leaving.”“I’m afraid I can’t allow that, doctor.”“Excuse me?” she
The Pack's Doctor Chapter 8: Waking up
WarrenI come awake with the scent of cinnamon and nutmeg flooding my nose. My mind is struggling to remember where I am and what happened and then, all of a sudden, it comes flooding back. I met her, my mate. Yara.I jolt, ready to sit up quickly, to make sure she’s still here, but Arric holds me steady.‘Easy, Warren. You’ll wake her up,’ he says, practically purring in my mind.I open my eyes and see her with her head on the edge of my bed, fast asleep. Whether it is Arric or just my instincts, my hand is in her hair, gently rubbing her head while she sleeps.She’s sitting in a chair, leaned over the bed, and she looks terrible uncomfortable. I look down at my leg and realize that she must have finished putting my bones together while I was asleep, having also sewn my leg closed and wrapped it in bandages.‘Thanks, Arric. You’re the best,’ I tell my wolf and it’s true. I’d be dead, hundreds of times over, if it wasn’t for the strength of my wolf.‘You can thank her this time. Being
