All Chapters of The Son of Red Fang: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

I can hear the motor to the nebulizer start up as the hiss from the flowing air gets closer to the phone. It only takes a moment before I can hear him whimper and fight against the mask. “Cole, stop fighting Angela. I know it’s difficult for you but you need to calm down and allow the medication to work.” “Thank you, Demetri.” Angela speaks to the phone. “I’m guessing the phone is close enough for Cole to hear me if he responded that quickly.” “Yes dear. You’re on speaker phone so he can hear you but he’s still really tense and shaking badly. Angela is holding the nebulizer mask to his face right now. He keeps trying to fight it even though he’s wheezing badly.” “I’m not surprised. Considering how bruised his face is now I imagine strapping even the foam lined mask to him would cause pain. Plus when he’s panicking everything becomes confining. Cole, I need you to listen to me son.” I pause a moment before continuing. ”You have done nothing wrong. Do not fear Lilly or Angela. Do n

I gingerly pull it away from his mouth, shocked to see no bite marks on it. “Is that all you were going to do the first time?” He slowly shakes his head, looking at the ground. I feel the light tug of the link in my mind as I gather a plan for getting Cole up.“Give me a minute to get Cole standing, then you can ask your question Lucas.” I hear him sigh but the pull from the link disappears. I squat down again trying to catch Cole’s downward gaze. “You will never be punished for the truth.” He looks up, briefly catching my gaze. “Let’s get you up.” I encourage softly as I stand again. “Take my hands.” I direct him as I hold them out to him. It takes a lot of effort for him to grab hold but he finally does, holding his breath as he stands. I know he’s fighting to keep his yelps and screams at bay but that’s not what I need from him. He sways even harder as he tries to orientate himself to standing. “Take a step towards me, then I need you to not move.” He takes the step forwa

He remains silent as he tucks his head deep into my neck, his body rattles hard as his ability to maintain his composure disappears. “I know you’re terrified, Cole. You have every right to be. Your faith is fleeting and your ability to trust is even less which makes this a whole lot harder but I promise you, we are going to do everything we can to help you.” I whisper as I gently lay my head upon his, holding him as Lilly pets the top of his head.“Keep your movements slow and gentle, Patrick. I know it’s been a while since you helped us with Ciara.” “Honestly Dr. Pierce. I don’t think I’ve worked with a prospect as physically injured as Cole coming in. Ciara was rough but that was more mental than physical. Despite being the alpha’s daughter, all he managed to do was make her mean. That’s why I took the lead over Demetri. He saw that she desperately needed help just like Cole does but she was also the complete opposite.”I feel Patrick attempting to pull Cole’s leg away from his a

“A week later, as we laid together in bed, she told me to pack the three of us for the trip to Crimson Dawn. She wanted to leave Friday, which was only two days away. She was tired of her dad and alpha holding her back from the care she needed. Something was wrong and everyone was calling her crazy instead of trying to figure out the issue. That night she woke up screaming in pain covered in blood. I ran her down to the wing but they didn’t know what was going on so they transferred her to the main hospital. They knew immediately that she had a complete placental abruption and rushed her into emergency surgery. They both passed away before they could get our pup out.” I pause to regroup my emotions. Even ten years later it’s difficult to talk about. I’m surprised to feel how relaxed Cole is listening to me so I carry on as I do have a point to make. “They say when your fated mate dies that you physically feel as if half of you were ripped away. Unlike the rumor that you feel pain e

(Demetri’s POV)“Now that Dominic is here, I’m going to start from the beginning as most of you here have never heard of what I feel is the most appropriate action for Cole’s run with us. When a prospect signs the application agreeing to a run there is a list of terms that they are agreeing to. Every pack’s list of terms are slightly different but mainly, it’s a recognition that all information collected by the alpha and his team are reported back to the council. Each pack is allowed to determine what information is important for the council and other packs to know about the prospects and only those involved in the prospect program has access to the file. Alpha’s have the ability to change what kind of run a prospect is on as long as it takes place no more than a week after the intake physical. There are three types of runs; standard, semi-off book, and completely off book. The council doesn’t like to have prospects on anything outside of the standard run but the other two options a
