Chapter 81

Laurie came downstairs, "Anthony, she's awake. The doctor is finishing up, he said she's ok, so is the pup. According to him she was exhausted and needs to rest a lot more. Why don't you go up to her, she's pretty upset. Anthony, don't yell at her, not now."

He passes the doctor on the stairs, "Alpha, the Luna is fine no need to worry about her or the pup. I gave her some vitamins and told her that she needs to stay off her feet more."

"Thanks, Doc." Anthony walks into the room and sits on the bed next to her.

"Anthony, please don't yell at me. I know I screwed up again. I didn't think anybody would be out there. I just wanted to get away from everything."

"I'm not yelling at you, baby. Do you know how scared I was when I saw you lying on the ground like that? You weren't moving."

"I know I did something stupid. I won't do it again, I promise."

"Did they hurt you?"

"No, they kept playing with me like I was a toy. A stupid toy they thought they had the right to bully."

"You know who it was don't you?"

"I don't know for sure, but I have a pretty good idea."

"Then you know if they ever found out that it was you, we would be in a lot of trouble."

"Anthony, stop. I know I made a mistake; I know how close I came to losing everything. I'm sorry."

He strokes her hair, "If you want to go out again and run, tell me. I'll go with you. Sleep, we have the bonfire tonight. We are telling the pack about the new baby. Do you feel up to it or do you want to wait?"

"We can't wait, I have to be there, or they will know that it was me."

Anthony pecks her on the top of her head, "Sleep so you can make it tonight."

Back at the pack house the three men quickly shower and change to cover the fact that they were in the woods at all. "If anyone asks, we were in our rooms all day."

"We need a better alibi than that." Michael grabs a box from his suitcase. "We need a present for the baby, and it will seem we spent the afternoon shopping."

"It is late how are we getting a present for the baby?"

"Alpha, I have one right here. I was going to use it to break the ice with Melody."

"That's why your dad was the best beta ever, he didn't come up with a lame idea like you did."

Michael is frustrated. "The two of you need to stop acting like children. We have to get ready for the bonfire, and all their happy ever after shit."

Drew glared at Michael. "Remember who the alpha is here. I want us to move into town after the bonfire. Set up reservations. It will lesson some of the tension."

"I will take care of it, Drew."

"Alpha Drew. We leave for the bonfire as soon as you make arrangements."

Anthony is checking on the preparations for tonight. "Is the food and other preparations done for the bonfire?"

"Almost, Alpha. We are waiting on Bonnie; she is doing the reveal part. The rest of it is all ready to go. Miss Laurie has been taking care of it."

"That is one tough lady. I can see where Melody gets it from." Anthony tells Branden who has been answering all his tedious questions.

"Do you know what you are having?"
