Soften My Heart

CH(18) Reports

The ride back to the mansion was mostly silent, except for a few words between pooh and his guard.

pavel eventually fell asleep in pooh's arms, the medicine he took in the morning was already making him sleepy and with how hard he cried, he exhausted himself to sleep.

when they arrived, pooh carried pavel upstairs to the bedroom. from the corner of his eyes, he noticed his other guard waiting for him but he can wait until he takes care of pavel.

Gently placing the sleeping boy on the bed, taking off his jacket and shirt so he can change him into a more comfortable clothes. but when his hands brushed the omega's bare skin, he noticed how hot the skin is.

Sighing, he whispered

pooh: you really exhausted yourself today, baby

pooh: maybe we shouldn't have gone anywhere while you are still sick like this

he went to the bathroom to grab a wet towel. while he was washing it, he heard some whimpering coming from the bedroom. he rushed to the bedroom quickly, his eyes falling on pavel who was sweating with his eyes shut tightly, his breathing was fast and heavy while whimpering and pained noises keeps falling from his mouth.

he was having another nightmare.

he went over to the boy, climbing the bed beside him. he held him, placing his head against the alpha's chest and started stroking his hair and whispering soothing words in his ears

pooh: shh it's okay baby. no one can hurt you, kitten

pooh: I am right here 

pooh: it's just a bad dream baby, not real

after the boy calmed down and his breathing returned to normal again, pooh wiped his body down with the cold towel to reduce his temperature.

he stayed with the boy for another half an hour until he made sure everything is okay, then went downstairs to his guards hoping that by the time he returns back to pavel to give him his medicine, the boy would be still sleeping.

----------------------------------------

the two guards were talking to each other, when the guard noticed pooh approaching he stood up while bowing to him

Guard 2: khun pooh

Guard 2: I finished the reports, sir.

handing his boss the reports, pooh sat on the couch with the reports. flipping through the pages,

without looking at his guard, he asked

pooh: anyone suspicious?

Guard 2: actually, there is someone sir

pooh lifted his head from the papers in his hand to look at the guard, gesturing for him to continue

Guard 2: there is one guard from the night shift, sir. his name is Krist.

Guard 2: this is his report sir. Actually the report is pretty normal, nothing about him is wired or bad. he is a good guard.

Guard 2: but I saw him leaving his spot in the middle of the night, there was a car waiting for him but a little far from the mansion to be out of the outside camera view

Guard 2: I tried to see the car plate, but from that distance and how dark it was, I couldn't see it, sir

pooh: what about pol? he is the one checking the cameras, didn't he see him leaving?
