Healing Hearts

Much to Gabby's weirdness, Layla's protectiveness, and Marley's confusion, they finally finished. Layla shoved the paper work into Gabby hands, who quickly waved at Marley and left the room. "Hey," Gabby paused at the door, smiling, "don't do anything I wouldn't do." With a wink, she was gone.

Layla rolled her eyes, moving over and handing Marley the clothes she was wearing before. She furrowed her eyes in confusion when she realized they were Denice's clothes.

"Did the... um.. Luna stop by?" Layla asked, moving a strand of her behind her ear.

Marley nodded her head, "Yeah, with the Alpha. He said I could be apart of the pack."

Layla smiled at that, cupping her mate's checks. "Good." Quickly moving, she kissed her mate's nose. "And even if he wasn't going to let you in, I would force him to."

Marley smiled, nodding her head.

Layla stepped back, "Well, I'll be right outside. So, I'll let you change."

When Layla stepped out of the room, Marley slid from the bed, her gown dropping from the ground. She slid on her underwear and bra, glancing at the door. She could see Layla's shadow from the other end, and just that made her smile. She jumped into a pair of jeans and was getting her shirt on as she went to the door.

Barley getting her head through the right hole, after many attempts, she stopped herself from running into the wall. Taking a deep breath, Marley controlled her nerves as she struggled to get her arms through. She groaned, making Layla knock on the door.

"Are you alright? You didn't hurt yourself, did you?" Layla pressed the side of her head to the head, trying to hear better— despite her werewolf hearing. "Marley?"

"I'm alright!" Marley squeaked, bitting her check from moaning in frustration. When she finally put the shirt on, she huffed as she patted down her hair. She quickly opened it, only to have Layla fall down at her feet.

The Doctor rolled over, staring up at her mate. She didn't bother to get up as she laid on the floor; she had her mate standing above her, and that's all she needed.

Marley leaned over, confusion in her eyes. "I'm sorry," she whispered, licking her dry lips.

Layla only smiled, getting up as her mate straighten up. "You know," she playfully spoke, grabbing her mate's hand, "I think I hurt my ass when I fell." She leaned in, her lips going by Marley's ear. "I may need a check up."

Marley nodded her head. "You could probably ask Gabby to do it."

Layla held in a groan, wanting to smack her head up against the wall. "No, Gabby isn't... qualified for this."

Marley shook her head, not understanding. "But I thought she was a nurse."

Layla let go of Marley as she covered her hands over her face. "Ah, forget it. I was talking dirty; I'll explain it later, Marls."

Marley blushed as the nickname, nodding her head even if she was clueless of what 'talking dirty' meant. Layla grabbed her hand, sending a nice smile her way as she lead her out of the hospital, waving at everybody as they left.

"Where are we going?"

"Home— where you and I shall live till we get old." Layla whispered, kissing her mate's check as they got into the car. Marley just nodded her head, her nose filling up with new scents. She shook her head, liking the on coming from the Doctor the best.

"Layla?" Marley asked as she got into the passenger seat of the car. When she heard a soft hum from her mate, she sat back and watch as the woman buckled her up. "Gabby said my wolf disappeared. What did she mean?"

Layla blew her breath out, accidentally hitting Marley in the face. "Your wolf was there in the beginning— healing your injuries like she was supposed to. Then she just stopped. That's why the other doctor was there earlier."

"The one you didn't like," Marley whispered, listening to her mate's every word. "He was kinda scary."

Layla growled, shaking her head to push back her wolf. She hated the idea of her mate being afraid, especially in the borders and protection of their pack.

Her anger seemed to grow, thinking that her mage was going to get hurt because she was scared. She took alerting deep breaths, her hands squeezing down on the seat belt.

She felt her wolf push to the surface, chanting how she was going to protect mate and the fact mate needed her.

All of a sudden, she felt like she couldn't breath. Layla liked the feeling, moving her lips to whatever heaven was covering them. It took her a second to realize Marley was kissing her, giving consent for the time being.

She lifted her leg over, trapping her mate on her seat as she brought her hands up to Marley's face.

She left Marley's lips as she started to kiss and suck down her neck. Her canines coming out as she heard her mate make moans and groans— almost begging Layla to mark her.

Marley didn't know exactly what was happening; she only knew her mate was struggling and she had to do something. She been staring at Layla, her eyes falling down to her mate's kissable lips.

The idea came to her head.

Now trapped under her mate, she just wanted more. She felt her mate's teeth gaze her skin, making her shiver again and again. "Layla?" She whispered, and her hips buckled.

She felt her mate's breath against her neck on more time before seeing the Doctor's face.

Layla smiled, chuckling softly as she joked to herself, "Never thought I be one to have sex in my car."

"Sex?" Marley whispered, her eyes widening.

Layla shook her head. "Yes. Wait I mean no. We didn't have sex just now. We were just making out. We have a lot to talk about before going further."

"Talk about?" Marley whined, her body shaking with nerves.

"Like our relationship and everything, and maybe when you want to have sex because I'm ready when you are."
