Resurrection

Chapter 15

Andy's POV

I lay beside Mason hearing quite conversation beside me. I slowly can make out what they are saying and I can tell it's Mason and Urshall talking in hushed voices.

"She needs to double up on her treatments because I'm not seeing a dramatic decrease in size of the tumor from what we are doing right now."

" She can hardly stand on her own now Urshall. If we double up she won't even be able to leave the bed. Can't you just do surgery and take it out and follow with more chemo"

" I suppose that could be another option but it's not a guarantee. Nothing is."

I began to open my eyes to see the bright sun beaming in through the windows and then I looked up towards Mason. I moved a little but his arms tighten around me and he follows by saying in my ear ," Don't move too much darling your not wearing anything and I don't want Urshall seeing what's mine."

I couldn't help but blush at the memories of last night coming back to mind. I heard the door close and it must have been Urshall giving us privacy.

I cleared my throat and said , "I heard everything you and him were talking about. I want to go with what you said. I don't want to be worse than I already am. I already don't have any independence because I have no strength."

He  tightened his grip on me and kissed my forehead," It's all up to you darling."

I nodded my head and just lay there.

We were sitting in the living room watching some TV when Annabelle walked in. She walked over to the chair and said, " Not to point out the obvious Andy but I see you are marked and I'm sensing Mason on you so I'm guessing you two matted last night."

When she said that she wiggled her eye brows and I couldn't help but hide my face in Mason's chest. I felt him vibrate with laughter.

He cleared his throat and said ," Well is anyone hungry. I got the maids cooking some breakfast ." I knew I wasn't going to eat anything because I always ended up throwing it up due to the chemo. I still went to the kitchen with Mason to sit at the table with everyone.

The maids all brought us each a plate of bacon and eggs with orange juice. I said my thank you and sat there while Mason, Jonah, and Don talked about pack business.  I can't help but think of my parents right now because I knew they would be happy I'm living my life the best that I can.

I didn't realize Annabelle was calling my name until she put her hand on my shoulder ," Hey. I know that look. What were you thinking about?"

I shrugged my shoulders and said ," I was thinking about my parents." I couldn't help but notice how Mason tensed up and shared looks with Jonah and Don.

I asked confused ," What's wrong? I can tell when your mind linking."

Mason put his fork down and grabbed my hand to ask ," Andy we have a few questions ,mainly myself, about your parents. If you don't want to talk about them I understand." I have no idea what they want to know so I motioned with my hand for them to ask their questions.

Jonah cleared his throat and spoke first ," Luna I was curious about your father so I tried to get information a out him. All I got was him name, DOB, and where he lived. Do know why?"

Why didn't they just ask me. Frustrated I got up and slowly walked to the couch in the living room leaving my food untouched.

Mason followed after me quickly and obviously worried. " Darling you don't have to answer any questions we just were curious and concerned." 

I can't believe they would go behind my back instead of just asking me. At that time Jonah and Don walked over with their heads down and said ," We are sorry Luna."

I stood up and said ," Both of you look at me." They slowly lifted their heads. " Do I look too sick to answer your questions. I mean it hurts you would dig around trying to find out things I can tell you. If you wanted to know just simply ask. The same for you Mason. I know you put them up to it so it's actually you to blame."

I sat down and looked at my hands ,clearly frustrated, before I started to explain ," My dad's name is Ronald Edward Acre. He was Special Operations for the United States Government in his 20's until he was 57. In the last part of his career ,I would say the last 10 years, he was training upcoming special ops."

They all gasped in surprise and Mason said ," That's why you have the skills you do. Your father trained you."

I nodded my head. ," Yes he trained me to be able to protect myself for any reason. In his line of work any information about him and his family was hidden. Even with the information hidden people would come after us."

I looked at Mason when I said ," My dad's career ended when he had his first battle with cancer." 

And I couldn't hold back my tears no longer. I was fated just as my dad was with a dangerous life and a body home to cancer.

I asked Mason to bring me back to our room after I told everyone about my father because I had no energy to talk anymore about my parents. I was laying on our bed looking up at the roof sinking in my own thoughts when I heard the bedroom door open.

I turned my head to see Annabelle standing in the door way. " Can I ask you something?" I asked reluctantly.

She walked over to sit " Of course Luna."

I looked her in the eyes " Annabelle your my friend please call me Andy. I want you to go to my parents house for me and look for my father's keepsake box. It should be in their room under the bed." 

She said very confused " Of course Andy. May I ask why you want it now?"

I turned my head away to respond " A few things I want Mason to keep safe for me." Then I began to drift off to sleep from today's events.
