(Demetri’s POV)

I don’t like what I’m seeing. These extreme shifts between being in control and anxiety attacks are a major concern as they tell me a story about his mental stability and right now it’s telling me he has none.

‘Madilyn can you hear daddy?’

‘Yes sir. What’s wrong with Cole?’

‘He’s been treated very bad for a long time and that makes it easy for him to get very scared, very quickly. Are you feeling better?’

‘Yes daddy, they’re all gone. My belly doesn’t hurt no more.’

‘Good. Do you think you can help Cole?’

‘How can I help him?’

‘Get him talking with you again. He did really well when he concentrated on you.’

‘What do we talk about?’

‘Anything sweetie. You asked him a question about the young girls he helps. He never answered it. See if he’ll talk about that.’

She goes quiet but I keep the link open just in case she needs more of a reminder of what she asked. Fortunately, she doesn’t disappoint.

She carefully starts moving around, trying to get out of his gri

    He stops as he tries to gather what little sanity he seems to be getting back, steadying his voice. “He told me that if any girl came to him claiming she was pregnant with my pup he would force them to abort it by convincing them that the pup was an abomination. He would then punish me severely before placing me in his jail cells while I wait for the council to come get me. That he would take all the evidence of rape that he kept quiet from my brothers and use it to frame me. To destroy me.” He’s breathing hard as he tries to settle down. I’ve placed my arms on either side of his head. It took him a minute or two but he did manage to lean his head against my one arm so I start using the other to gently pet the nape of his neck. He whines initially but that fades out as he starts talking again. “Somehow she found out about my meeting with dad. She started to avoid me and after two weeks of being completely ignored and avoided by her I used the card to visit her on a Friday night. I

    I follow slowly behind Angela. The room we’re going to is much smaller than the others so I allow her to get him settled before entering myself. I link with Lilly, asking her to come to the room. Angela places her hand on my shoulder bringing me back from my link. It took a few minutes but in the end I believe that she’s willing to come. “Fortunately this is the warmest room in the wing but I still got him an extra blanket. His temp is down again.” “I imagine so.” “I’m headed to bed unless you need anything else.” I pull Angela into a hug. “Thank you. Hopefully we’re right behind you. Just do me a favor.” “What’s that?” “Make sure whoever’s on call doesn’t wake him. We both know that sleeping is important for healing.” “Of course.” She smiles as she walks away, placing her hand over her mouth as she yawns. I continue down the hall, stopping just outside the door. I can hear the television playing but the volume is too low for me to understand what’s on. I smile gently at Lill

    He’s breaking down again but something about it affects Lilly in an unanticipated way. She stands from the loveseat and walks over to the bed, sitting gently on the bed. She plays gently with his hair before speaking. “Tell me what you told Demetri.” She gently encourages him. “You’ll take her away if I do.” He whispers into Madilyn’s hair. “Please Cole. Give me the opportunity to understand you.” “I want her luna.” He finally whispers after a long pause. “To hold her, comfort and protect her.” “Demetri, have you asked him about his desires for a mate or children?” “I don’t think I have. Not directly anyway. When we spoke, after you left, I did tell him that considering his age I felt his desire to be near pups was natural.” “I’m not allowed to be near children, Luna. Because of Dallas I’ve been punished for just talking to them at other packs.” “How old are you, Cole?” “I’ll be twenty-three on Saturday.” His answers to Lilly’s questions are quiet and submissive but his

    “What I want you to do is allow the weight of your hand to do the work. Concentrate on what you feel on your neck as I describe what I need.” He nods his head again but his breathing has tightened up showing me his nervousness. “Your hand stays flat. Allow it to follow the shape of her neck.” I allow my hand to sit there a moment, trying to give him a chance to relax. I move my hand slowly, causing him to tense and hold his breath. I use my thumb to rub gently behind his ear. “Breath Cole. I’m not causing you pain. I’m just touching you.” He takes a deep breath as I slowly take my hand from his neck. I stand and return to where Madilyn is, preparing to give her the saline and electrolytes she’s in need of. I watch Cole duplicate my actions, gently placing his hand upon the back of her neck. She stirs and whimpers lightly. I smile when I hear his voice softly consoling and reassuring her. I tie a band around her wrists causing her to pull away and whimper again. I can tell he’s k

    “Delta David had only been dad’s delta for five years at that point and I didn’t remember ever seeing his mate with him. She came back to me six months later, in the same terrible pain. She was even worse this time than the first. I ran her a hot bath before leaving the room. I have a coded lock on my door so no one can get in and I developed precautions so when dad put a camera up to capture the code he never did. We have a similar store room as yours. Only ours is a combination of new and used clothing. I went through the clothes and found a nightgown and underwear before stopping at another area of the closet and picking up two bottles of the grape flavored liquid Tylenol over the chewables. I could tell she didn’t like the taste last time so I was hoping this would be easier for her to take. I went into the bathroom when I got back to the room. The tub was positioned on the other side of the room opposite of the door with a wall at one end so even without the curtain drawn you c

    He pulls Madilyn closer to him as he talks. “I didn’t mean to do it. I don’t want to do it but everything happened so fast that it spiraled out of control. For three years now my father has punished me every single month, even more than that when he finds a mark.”He freezes as soon as he realizes what he’s done. ‘Silence.’ I warn Lilly through the link as I stand from the loveseat. “Fuuuuck.” He groans as he rolls away from Madilyn. I can see him balling his hand into a fist and before I can stop him he pummels himself twice in the head. I stop him before he strikes a third but he’s fighting it badly. “Alpha please. I deserve this. You’re refusing to punish me when I deserve to be punished. Why haven’t you beaten me yet? Please just tie me down and lay into me. Stop withholding on me. You know I deserve it. Stop treating me differently and give me what I deserve. Alpha…..”“Enough.” My voice is stern and my aura is out but neither is angry in nature. Unfortunately he doesn’t u

    I kiss her again before sitting down. I connect my lightning cord to the computer then to my phone and scroll through the files to find my audio recordings, downloading what Cole just told me about the girls and saving it under ‘protection’. “What are you doing now?” Lilly asks as I bring up my ‘Big Brother’ security program. “Gathering evidence that he’s capable of being a protector.” “What exactly have you found, Demetri?” I scroll through all the different areas that I have cameras placed in my territory, both indoors and outdoors, while trying to think of everywhere he would want to go to take care of Madilyn. I start selecting all the usual places; the medical room they are currently sleeping in is the first one up. I take a moment to watch the video feed. The glow from leaving the television on gives me a great view in the dark of how relaxed both of them are. I can’t help but sigh with relief. “You're attached to him, aren’t you?” “It seems that way.

    Thursday, January 25th(Cole’s POV)I stir slowly awake, taking my time to orientate myself to my surroundings. I haven’t slept that well in a while and it’s quite refreshing. I stretch my entire body out and yelp as I’m quickly reminded of my injuries. I look down to see the alpha’s daughter stirring around in response to my dramatic awakening back to reality. She sits up in the bed, allowing the blanket to slide off her shoulders. My breathing tightens as she looks down at me. “Hi.” Her voice is happy and bubbly like nothing happened last night. “Hi.” I respond back with uncertainty. “How are you feeling?” “Better.” I nod my head but stop as I hear her stomach grumble. We both look at her stomach as she rubs it gently. “Dinner didn’t stay last night.” “I’m sorry.” I apologize remembering what the alpha said about her being an intuitive. She shakes her head. “Don’t be.” I give her a gentle smile as I push a lock of hair out of her face and behind her ear. I look around an

    The very breath I breathe is knocked right out of me as he has never commanded me to do anything. Even his father has made a strangled growl in response to his statement. “Even though you are an alpha, I am commanding you to come back.” His tone has softened but the seriousness in his voice has not. “I will return or I will die trying.” I somehow manage to whisper. Luna steps up next as Alpha Damian steps back wrapping her arm around me as Madilyn grabs my neck. I can feel Madilyn trying to wrap herself around me. Luna loosens her hold as I timidly take the young pup into my arms. “No! Don’t leave!” She starts off yelling. “You don’t deserve your daddy. He hurts you when you’re a good wolf. Please stay. My daddy can be your daddy. I promise I’ll share him.” She barely makes it through the last two sentences before breaking down crying. I hold her tightly as I look at luna’s face, her cheeks wet with tears. “I’m sorry.” Is all I can manage to whisper as she takes the little one

    (Cole’s POV)It’s a shock to say the least to see Lucas come out to the porch let alone to see what appears to be a forced apology from him. I have a hard time believing what he has to say. I have never heard of Wolfington Academy and the only hint he gave was that he would go away. Not something I would ever want to happen to a newly shifted teen but I certainly wouldn’t want him to continue being a danger to the preshifts either. It’s been easy enough the last few months for me to avoid interacting with him even though I have sincerely missed the twins. These last two months, while they have been terribly hard and mentally painful for me, have also been the best for showing me the support I will have when I’m not myself. Alpha and luna both have gone out of their way to help me through my own decision to return. Every night luna and the twins would come to my room after dinner with a plate of food wrapped in cling wrap and several drinks. They would put the food and drinks in the

    He finally lifts his head and stands from the stairs, walking slowly towards me. Suddenly his pace picks up and has taken on a more aggressive look. I start moving to intercept him as he’s headed straight towards Cole. ‘Stop me. Please dad, I don’t want to hurt him.’ His call for help is real, he genuinely fears hurting Cole. I step quickly into his path, silently wrapping my arms around him. One around his waist, the other under his arm allowing me to curl around and place my hand on the back of his neck. He freezes in place and stifles a yelp as I hold him close. I’m struggling to put together what these new symptoms mean. “Lay your head. I need you to relax so I can submit your wolf without causing you pain.” I whisper in his ear as I guide his head down. He whimpers quietly as I massage his neck looking for the best pressure point. “I need you to talk, Luke. To anyone. I don’t care if you confide in your brother, your mother, any of the doctors or nurses in the wing, tell

    I wrap my hands around his, sliding my fingers gently between his hands and hair. He surprises me with how easily he gives up his stimming. “Stand up son.” I keep my voice gentle and reassuring, waiting for him to respond. He fights me briefly as he stands, trying hard to get out of my hold. “No, Cole. Accept the contact.” I persist as I refuse to let him run from me. Surprisingly, it seems he wants to run towards the van picking him up, not back into the house. “Stay with me a moment son. Allow me to calm you.” He relents to my desire, slowly giving me the calm I know he needs to make a rational decision. “I know you heard the conversation. I need to know your thoughts.” “Dad sent him.” He whispers, his voice fearful. “I know. Your dad requested the change but the council honored it so the plan remains the same. You have pack members at White Ridge which gives your father no excuses for picking you up.” He nods against my shoulder before slowly pushing himself away.

    “Come.” I state as I gently pull him up and into me. He whimpers and fights briefly before taking hold of me tightly. We simply stand in silence, waiting for the trauma of leaving to subside. I wait for him to push away first, following his lead for when he’s ready to start out towards the front door. “Would you like some Ativan? It won’t take effect until you're well on your way north so it won’t alter your ability to decide to stay or go but it will make the trip easier to handle.” “Please.” Is all he manages to whisper against my neck before he pushes himself up to stand on his own. “Stay.” I whisper just as quietly as I step away from him into the attached bathroom, opening the cabinet and pulling out the low dose Ativan that I keep there. I return in front of him cupping his chin in my hands, lifting his head so he’s looking straight instead of the floor. He whimpers subtly as he pulls away but I don’t allow him to leave me. “Easy there, son.” I whisper as I use my thumbs

    His eyes are wide with my explanation but he slowly removes his shirt as I’ve requested. “Put it on my desk.” I keep my calm helping him along when he appears lost. “Please.” He pleads helplessly. “It’s okay.” I try to comfort him. “No sir. It’s not okay. I’m not okay.” “I know. That’s why I’m doing this. Don’t step away.”I instruct as I close the distance between us. He accepts my embrace as I pull him into me again. There’s one test that I’ve never done with him as I’ve respected his sensitivity towards his back being touched but today I’m using that sensitivity to break him down in the hopes that he’ll be better able to handle leaving. It could also lead him into a complete breakdown requiring me to place him on a mental health hold but I’m taking my chances. “What are you going to do to me?” He asks as he struggles to lay his head on my shoulder.“I’m going to touch your back.” I explain as I guide his head down and pet the back of his head. “Please, sir. You don’t know h

    It’s as we sit in silence that his frantic sobs finally quiet and are slowly replaced by the steady rhythm of his slightly wheezed snore. He hasn’t slept or ate right in the last two months and his condition shows it easily as he’s nearly back to the same weight he was when he got here despite our efforts to counteract his depression by upping his medication. I close my eyes and lay my cheek against his head as I listen to everything around me. I reassigned everyone that normally helps in the pack house to other tasks, closed the med wing with the exception of emergencies and canceled all the meetings that were scheduled today. I knew today would be tough but nothing could have prepared me for the brutal reality of this young man choosing to leave. The pack house is eerily quiet as if the house has been swallowed whole in preparation for the sadness, the sheer trauma of his departure. I have no idea how long I’ve been sitting with him when the shuffle of my mate’s feet starts down t

    Friday July 20th; 8am(Cole’s POV) It’s been a month since my meeting with alpha discussing my options for getting out of the hell I call home. I was allowed to take the hard splint off for good two weeks ago but that hasn’t kept me out of the med wing. I’ve been in a steady slide into severe depression and I’ve had to seek the comfort of both alpha and Dr. Pierce when my feelings have become too extreme for me to handle alone. My mood swings have been so wild that I’ve gotten extremely nasty with Jessa. I so much as begged alpha to send her on a trip with Alpha Damian until today because I knew how badly I was hurting her. I didn’t mean to hurt her and I know I’m going to pay dearly for my lack of control when I return. Sleep is scarce at best and eating is nearly impossible. I can’t begin to describe how many times I have screamed myself awake, fighting alpha’s hold around me just to break down and cry in his arms. The anticipation of returning after six months of relative peace

    “This is also the reason why we don’t want you to wait for the committee to remove you. The information that your father has access to without much digging on the process says if you make it to the final step in the investigation ten members of the council will move into your pack and you will be simultaneously moved out. The move is permanent no matter if you go to trial or not as the council members that move in are not simply investigating you.” I stop my gentle rub just under the hem of Jessa’s shirt and cock my head slightly as this was where Dr. Pierce had essentially stopped when breaking down the process.“So what are they doing when the committee starts their nine month investigation?” “What they’ve done for ten years now is remove the wolf being investigated to a temporary sanctuary pack within an hour’s drive of the regional committee’s headquarters. The pack has constant contact with the committee and as soon as any feral behaviors are seen the wolf is placed in the pack
