Luna's Heart

Chapter 14. Unforetold Truth

x Gray x

Training has been going well. There's always been training happening but now with this threat everyone's been training for an hour at least every day. Every able-bodied pack member has been sparing and improving their skills. I'm proud of every single one of them. They train in human and wolf form to be able to focus on their techniques and not getting lost in their senses. In wolf form most go for the throat and cut their veins to bleed out. If we can counter that or stop it from happening, they will be able to fight back easier.

After the days training everyone goes to do what they need to. Whether its more training on their own or spending time with loved ones. Rosie and I go back home. She insisted that Luca is not old enough yet to start training. I agree, but he's old enough to learn a few things. He is the only child here who has changed. It makes him unique and special. He should be learning to defend himself. I won't push it with her though, she knows best. When he's a teen we can start his training with the others who have changed.

Romero has been absent a lot lately. Its making me uncomfortable that he's been so distant. I don't know if its because I'm mated now or if someone got into his head. Either way his distance isn't a good sign. I know Rosie can feel it too. His link is still here with us but its frayed like he's doing it on purpose.

Either way we can't focus on it. We have bigger things we need to focus on and worry about. I know Rosie has her suspicions about him and there's only so much I can dissuade her. But her gut feeling is very accurate so keeping an eye out is best.

The results of our Luna's blood tests are in Alpha if you both would like to come in. Zora mind-links me.

Thank you, Zora, we will come in right away. I inform her as I take Rosie's hand.

"Come on, the blood results are in my dear. Let's go." I say to her with a smile. I can feel her heart sink slightly with nervousness.

"Yeah let's go find out." She says with a weary smile. We go right to the doc's office and inform the receptionist. She brings us to the back right away and into a room. We thank her and sit down. A knock on the door before it opens and closes behind her.

"Thank you for coming in so soon." She says sitting in the chair, giving us a quick smile.

"Of course, we want to know." Rosie says biting her lip slightly. Zora gives an empathetic smile.

"Well I looked over the results and it shows no reason for you not to be able change Luna. Everything is actually perfect. From a medical standpoint your healthy. Though with knowing your past a bit and with everything that's going on I think its more mental. You may just be blocked because of stress or worrying about not being able to change. I suggest trying not to focus on it and hopefully soon enough you will change ok. I am sorry there wasn't anything else I could tell you." Zora explains to us.

"Thank you, Zora. Its nice to know that there isn't anything inside her causing her not to shift. We will try to not focus on it as much ok. We appreciate your help." I say to her shaking her hand. Rosie smiles softly as she nods her head and shakes her hand as well. She leans into my side and I wrap an arm protectively around her.

"Sorry that there wasn't anything else I could do Alpha. If there's anything else you need to know or want to test for just let me know alright." Zora offers genuinely.

"Thank you, we will keep that in mind." I say to her with a half smile. We leave the office and head home. I know she's lost in her thoughts. I can feel her sorrow with this and how much she misses the feel of the earth under her paws. I know she wants to run with me and Luca in wolf form and embrace the earth again.
