Caleb POV

"What are we going to do about Holt in this state? He can't go to the trial in this state." Vince whispered. 

"I'm going to call Connor, maybe he can go to New Moon and spend a week or so. Being here isn't going to help him at all. I'll talk to Darrold about Kase going with him since this affects them both." I said and my mates all looked at me unsure if it'll work. 

After we decided on what to do next we decided to cook together. 

"Has anyone talked to Eric? I still don't trust that woman." Adin said. 

"He's fine, his mother pulled a gun, and luckily one of the warriors tackled and rolled with him to avoid getting shot." I said. 

"He's getting checked out at the emergency room when the warrior tackled him he hit his head and got whiplash causing him to temporarily blackout." I added. 

"I hope she rots in hell." Nathan said. 

We all gasped. Nathan hardly ever curses. 

"I'm sure she will." Seth said. 

When we finished cooking we all watched movies. 

"Daddy's home!" We didn't even realize we fell asleep until Eric busted through the front door scaring us all out of our sleep.

"What the crap!" Vince said, holding his chest.  

"Sorry, sorry, I didn't know you all would be passed out considering I was almost murdered." He said being all dramatic and we laughed. 

"Well, we're all glad you're home safe and sound." We all hugged him but Holt was still quiet. 

"What exactly happened?" Vince asked. 

"Well from the moment I got there it all went to shit, I tried my best to be civil and try to talk to her like a normal person but that didn't happen and when I was getting up I heard someone yelled 'gun' and one of the warriors tackled me and we rolled out of the path of the bullet causing me to get whiplash and blackout." He sighed. 

"We're sorry babe, you don't deserve that." Adin said. 

"It's ok but I'm more concerned about Holt." He said looking at our son who was looking everywhere but us. 

"Baby boy, what's wrong?" Eric said, trying to get Holt to say something.

We all know it'll take some time to get over the fact he may never have kids of his own. 

"What's there to talk about? I can't give my mate what he desires. The one thing we both wanted and I can't do that for either of us because I'm infertile. If you can figure out how to heal me then we'll talk." He said with tears in his eyes and I can feel his pain. The one thing he wants is a family of his own and we can't help him. 

"Holt, look at me." Kase said kneeling in front of Holt. 

"I still love you ok? I understand this is hard for you but we'll get through this." Kase said and I just stared at them hoping they can make it through this. 

"He's right Holt, I was stabbed by my mother a total of… well, I don't even know. You were stabbed fifty or so times so who knows what the future will hold. I haven't had my wolf spirit yet and I still got pregnant. Don't lose hope. It may take a while but it could happen at some point. If it doesn't then you just have to be the best parent you can be and adopt. Adopt from young and get the full experience." Eric said smiling and I can see a small smile appear on Holt's face." We all hugged him. 

"We love you, Holt, no matter what. Whatever the future holds we'll be by your side." I said and we all agreed. 

"I still want you to talk to Connor though, both you and Kase will need it." I said seriously.
