I left the hospital 2 days later after the doctors had declared me fit. My first period was still happening but the bleeding and cramping had drastically subsided. It had been agreed that I would stay with the Witstock’s in their house but Marcus had declared that I would be in a separate room from either of the twins and the twins weren’t allowed in my room after darkness, for any reason. We were all going to go on a shopping trip soon too as I was currently wearing Lissa’s clothes and as kind as it was of her, it also felt strange, a feeling
not helped by the fact that we had very different styles and tastes in fabrics and colours. The shopping trip would also take Lissa and Marcus into town which would allow them to sort out what was left to do on Marie’s Will. They had already sorted out most of her requests and were currently, surprisingly calmly, arranging the proceedings for her funeral. While I was indescribably grateful for all they had done and for keeping my location a secret since so far none of my family had discovered where I was I was still terrified by the thought of coming across them. The twins however had assured me that I would never be alone if or when the time came that I had to face any of them. I had also been told if they requested to
see me or I had to deal with them for any reason, like for example at their court case I could
do so with the full force of the pack at my side if I wanted them to. We parked the cars outside two large buildings. I knew the larger of the two buildings was
the pack house which meant the other 4 storey building was the Witstock family home. The pack house looked and acted a lot like a hotel for visitors and newly mated pack members. Normally the Alpha or in this case Alphas would live in the pack house with their Luna but it wasn’t a good idea for single Alphas to be so easy to get a hold of. Alphas are unique in their
ability, unlike other wolves to be able to impregnate unmated females which makes Alphas a target for lonely she-wolves who have given up on finding their mate or hope that getting pregnant will force the Alpha to choose her as his Mate. I hated that I knew that was a thing but I’d once heard my sisters talking about it as a way of getting the twins to pick them as
their chosen Mates. Lissa showed me into what was going to be my room, it was directly below the twins rooms and while I understood that this was for my benefit and so I didn’t feel rushed or pressured,
having such a large room just for me made me feel oddly lonely. I pushed the thought aside as I explored the room. The walk-in closet/dresser was bigger than my mum and dads living room and I got lost in the bathroom. Lissa had somehow found time to buy me a couple of outfits, pyjamas and toiletries so I decided to go for a shower before getting into a bed which
could have comfortably accommodated 5 fully grown wolves. I lay in the bed 45 minutes later, warm, clean and comfortable and listened as Marcus, Lissa and my boys made their way to bed. I tossed and turned but two hours later I was still awake. I had gotten too used to having the boys either side of me that knew I couldn’t sleep without them. I knew it might upset Marcus but I snuck out of my room and up the stairs. It was only as I got there that I realised that while the boys had made certain that I knew they were only one floor up I didn’t actually know where their rooms were but Angel had me covered before I could start panicking, she reminded me that I can smell them so sniffing their rooms out should be fairly easy. I laughed a little at myself as I took a deep sniff of the dark corridor and almost immediately picked up Rogans scent. The rooms were actually next door to each other but since Rogans was first I knocked on it quietly and waited, while Angel told me off for not just mind linking them. I started to panic again when I realised that neither boy had slept properly in over a week and I was waking them up at midnight just because I wanted cuddles. I turned to go back to my room but as I stepped away in the direction of the stairs a pair of
strong arms grabbed my waist and twirled me to face their owner. Rogan stood beside Rio whose hands were still firmly on my waist, both of them looked sleepy but neither looked like they had been asleep. Rogan smiled at me and explained that they had been plotting how to get into my room without breaking their dad’s rule or how to get me to one of their rooms
without forcing me. Since Rogan’s room was closest we decided we would all sleep in there tonight. I was curious to see what his room would look like since it was such a personal space but it was too dark to really see anything. In the morning we woke up in a tangle of limbs and as we began waking up and moving
around they both seemed intent on moving around me as carefully as possible. It wasn’t until they both got out of bed in the same careful manner that I realised they had been trying to make sure nothing happened or touched me that might make me uncomfortable, their
sudden shyness made me giggle and caused both of them to blush and scowl. I was excited about today. I’d planned something hopefully fun for us but I’d had to check with Lissa that I was physically ok to try it, once she had given me the ok I’d just had to think of the best ways to introduce the idea to the twins. They both returned to the room washed and dressed and ready for whatever I had decided we were doing with our day, they both looked apprehensive but excited, their expressions made me happy and a bit fuzzy feeling. Rogan the ever practical asked if we needed to take anything with us or would we need the
cars so he could begin preparations, I delayed answering as I sat on Rogan’s bed observing
his overly organised bedroom
“Neither of you will need your clothes, if that helps”
I smiled sweetly at their astonished faces but I couldn’t keep a straight face and the giggles knocked me backwards onto the bed as they both realised I was messing with them. We stood outside, the boys were happy to strip in front of each other but I hid behind the patio doors. It wasn’t that I was embarrassed as such but my body still felt very new to me and I still felt like I was adjusting to the changes.
‘Angel’
I called her forward from where she’d been sleeping at the back of mind
‘Yes dear?’
‘We’re going to shift if that is ok but i’ve never done it before’
‘That sweetheart, is why you have me’
Angel had so much confidence in her abilities, she never seemed scared or unprepared to help me and it was unmeasurably reassuring. She took over as I initiated the shift, I could feel every move, my bones shifted into new positions, my face pulling forward and then the fur, so much fur. I peeked around the corner, still in enough control to move Angel but only as much as she was allowing me too. We spied on Atlas and Apollo from our hiding place as they chased each other in circles as they waited for us.
‘Let’s Go’
Angel sounded younger than normal, it was like she was a puppy again, overcome with energy and playfulness. With my permission she took complete control and bounded forward almost knocking Atlas and Apollo over as she ran into them. They surrounded her immediately and while Alphas were always large, Angel wasn’t exactly a small wolf and she held her own when the boys started bouncing at her. She wasn’t intimidated when they initiated play fighting and the three of them played, chased, nipped and rolled around each other for hours. When Angel began to tire she relinquished her control and allowed me to come further forward. It was evident she approved of her Mates and they, her. I headed back to where we had first changed and we chatted as we shifted back and got dressed. It was clear from our conversation that Angel and her wolves were very ready to move onto Mating and having pups, the thought nearly gave me a heart attack. We met the boys after they had
shifted back and I matched their smiles as they commented on how beautiful Angel was. I had noticed over the last couple of days that they were saying things in unison more around me or maybe because of me, I wasn’t sure which. Now that they knew about Angel I could have a proper talk to their parents about her. I knew second chance wolves were rare, almost unheard of in recent times so it was probably a good idea if it was documented or notarized or something. I assumed the Doctor’s would know the best course of action or could at least tell me who the best people to talk to about it would be.
