Eddie POV 

Watching Izzy contain Aspen, he didn't even see so much as a scratch on the woman, not one tiny little nick, all of Aspen's claws had retracted in fact, to make sure that he didn't hurt her. They loved her, he realised, way more thanhe'd thought, as much as their own mother in all likelihood.He had not even survived unscathed, little Aspen was a ball of fury. The moment he'd seen Brad come into that plane's bedroom to collect Piper, he had not liked being separated from his mother at all.Aspen and Brandon were calmer, and much so, with Izzy holding on to him, though watching her was a curiosity in itself. 

He had seen her snarl at both him and Cooper, even Timbers' head had been whipped up when she had done so back in Hawaii. Then to see her bow down here in the pack hospital, at Aspens Alpha Aura, he was rolling out of him unchecked at any and all wolves that he was seeing, all those wolves had freaked the poor kid out completely.Izzy had bared her neck and then dropped right down on to her knees. It was not a human thing to do, though she was crying in pain from it, that was a human thing, he'd still be trying to contain the boy himself, from lashing out at the other wolves around him. All his claws were back out, and Izzy, though had been able to contain him at the airport, just stepped back away from him inside the pack. 

She knew on pure instinct she was not going to be able to contain him, he couldn't help her and all the pack members at the same time while trying to hold on to the furious Alpha pup in his arms. He had tried to use a hand to push her away and out of the Aura, but found she was just outside of his reach.Thankfully, Brad had come back and talked to the boy, redirected his attention and the boy's wolf's Aura had been solely directed at Brad himself, something he could clearly handle, unlike some of the wolves inside the hospital and Izzy herself, he had two nurses bared to him and Izzy on the ground.Eddie stepped away from Brandon, there was nothing more he could do. Brad was going to have to deal with his son on his own, so he knelt down and picked her up off the floor the moment she was released from Aspen.Watched as Brad had walked off with a still fighting Aspen, he'd taken two hits from his own sons wolf, all claws out and Eddie doubted very much this would be the only thing the man got. 

He knew Brad would not want to hurt the boy, so he had taken the hits without so much as a thought of punishing the boy, couldn't do it, would only build animosity between them and ruin any chance of a proper bond.Izzy had looked up at him, and then just stepped right into him, hugged him to herself, not even said anything at all about what had just happened. Seemed to be just relieved to get up off the floor. It was odd, he was expecting her to be in excruciating pain, in need of medical attention even, but there was noblood dripping from her nose or ears, she didn't hold her head as though she had the worst headache in the entire world. Neither had she been rendered unconscious either, it was very odd.It didn't seem like she needed a doctor at all, and when he asked her if she was alright, she'd just nodded and stated "I'm okay." not an ounce of pain in her, it was odd to say the least. 

Cooper had come down the hall some time later and told him he had to take Izzy up to his room and keep her there at Brads' order for now.Eddie didn't mind the idea, and would love to have her all to himself for days on end, but he was curious as to why the order so had asked, but via the mind-link, in case it was not something he wanted Izzy to hear.'She's not entirely human Eddie,' had come the reply.'She is of no threat, Cooper. I might need her to contain Aspen later.''I am aware of that, just for now is all, till we understand what she is.''Alright.' Eddie hadn't really argued with the Beta, and being alone with Izzy was no chore for him or Timber for that matter. Liked being alone with her. Smiled to himself, she was going to sleep like a baby after they were done with her. Heard Timber chortle inside his mind and knew his wolf was more than happy about being locked in a room with their little human, not so human Mate.His wolf felt something different about her too, likely she would turn on the next full moon.
