    Celeste P.O.V.


    I flinched as Dr West took some blood.


    “Well my dear, I don’t see anything wrong with you. I think you just haven’t been getting rest. You lost a


    bit of weight. Have you been


    eating properly?” He asked. I shifted nervously, not wanting to look at anyone.


    “Tuli?” Markus asked. A hint of suspicion in his eyes, letting me know that he would be able to tell if I


    lied to him. I sighed.


    “Yes, but sometimes I forget to eat. I used to eat half a meal a day. I feel bloated when I eat too much


    and I want to throw up. I have been eating by myself this past week, so instead of grabbing a full


    dinner, I just eat a fruit instead,” I said. Markus stiffened at my words


    but didn’t say anything. I could feel angering off him now that I had lowered the wall I didn’t know I


    had put there.


    “Well, with your history, we need to make a bigger effort to eat. Your body needs all the nutrients it can


    get. You were getting better and we seemed to have backstepped a bit. I know it takes your stomach a


    little while to get used to not being empty, but you need to push through it. We need our Luna healthy


    and strong. I am going to give you some mtonin for sleeping. It’s a natural medication so it shouldn’t


    upset your stomach. I am also going to suggest you drink some calming tea about an hour before


    bedtime so it will help you


    get a restful sleep. I will send this blood work to theb and let you know if I see anything out of the


    normal when the resultse back,”


    he said and I nodded.


    “Come Tuli, let’s get some breakfast, then you and I will be spending the day together.” Markus


    wrapped his arm around my waist


    and led me out of the hospital.


    We went into the kitchen as Mrs Wendell was cleaning up. She usually assisted Mrs Wriley with the


    food. “Do we have everything we


    need for pancakes?” Markus asked as he led me to a seat on the counter.


    “Oh, I can whip some up for you, Alpha,” Mrs Wendell said, starting to pull some pots out of the


    cupboards.


    “No no, I want to cook for my Luna. You’ve done a lot this morning already. Just take a break,” he said


    as he escorted her out of the kitchen. I smiled at him as he came back out and started rummaging


    through the pantry.


    He took out his phone and started looking up a recipe. I tried not tough, knowing he was trying to be


    sweet. “Do you need some


    help?” I asked.


    “No, I am cooking for you. You just sit there and eat some raspberries while I cook,” he said as he


    pulled some fruit from the fridge


    and put it in front of me. I leaned back on my chair and watched him.


    This is going to be a disaster isn’t it?- Kara asked, giggling inside my head.


    Oh yeah – I said.


    20 minutester, I watched a flustered Markus try to flip his 4th pancake. I was trying my best not to


    and on everything, including himself.


    I can hear As growling. I think they are fighting over how to make a proper pancake –


    Karaughed.


    “Markus,” I said tentatively. I could hear him muttering to himself angrily. I went over to the freezer and


    grabbed some frozen waffles


    I’d bought for the omegas in case they missed breakfast while doing their duties. I gently grabbed his


    hand and pulled him around. He


    had flour on his nose and looked defeated. I let out a small giggle.


    He sighed, “I am a failure of a person. I can’t even cook a pancake.”


    Iughed and shook my head. “You just need the right tool,” I said and shook the box of frozen waffles


    lightly. Heughed and tried


    to hug me, but I ducked and ran to the other end of the counter. He looked slightly hurt at my actions


    but I justughed and shook my


    head, “You’re not hugging me with half a pound of flour all over you.” He looked down and it was like it


    was the first time he noticed the state of his clothes. Heughed and then got a really mischievous look


    on his face.


    “Oh but mate, we need to hold you. It is our right.” He and As’ voice were mixing together.


    Oooooh, mate loves the chase. Let’s give him a challenge! –


    Kara encouraged and I didn’t need telling twice. I ran out the door and


    fast, but we were taster. We dashed into the woods and out the other end. As would asionally


    gain on us but we made it to the river


    without getting caught. We stopped at the edge and As came barreling into us, unable to stop in


    time. We rolled down the embankment with a bunch of yelps from our wolves.


    We finallynded at the edge of the river with an oof Kara was shaking the dirt and water off her fur


    when Markus rushed to us with


    concern and guilt in his eyes. He started feeling for injuries, making Kara ticklish. She rolled onto her


    belly and panted.


    “Kara, are you OK? Celeste baby can you hear me? I’m so sorry, we were too caught up in the chase,


    we didn’t realize you had


    stopped because we were at the river.”


    Kara, do something. He thinks he hurt us. – I said, not liking to see Markus in distress


    Kara got up and pushed her snout into his arms, practically purring. Markus held her face and looked at


    us with so much love in his


    eyes. Kara licked his entire face and heughed.


    “You’re fast. As has never had trouble catching anyone before. You’re definitely his new favorite


    challenge,” Kara wagged her tail at


    the praise from our mate. “Come on, we should get back. I was going to take you to a pic today, but I


    think since we’ve had our


    outdoors fun, I’m taking you on an actual date in town,” Karajumped on his shoulders and licked his


    face again. Making himugh and


    cover his face. Kara got up and turned to him,ying down expectantly. Markus’ eyebrows shot up.


    “You want me to ride you back to the


    Packhouse?” Kara nodded and let her tongue fall out of our mouth. Markus seemed to think about it for


    a minute and then shrugged and


    climbed on. Kara took us back to the Packhouse. Gillian was outside waiting for us with clothes. He


    seemed to find his view


    amusing.


    “You’re looking verydy godiva right now,” heughed at Marcus as he dismounted from us. He


    scratched behind our ear and


    “Kara wanted to keep stretching her legs. I didn’t see the harm in it,” he said.


    Gillian gave him a robe for me and turned around. Kara went back to the recesses of my mind and


    allowed me to push forward.


    “I’m taking the Luna to dinner tonight. Is there anything pressing that needs to be dealt with before we


    go?” Markus asked, helping


    me into the robe.


    “No, we cleared the day for you to spend with the Luna. Ruby will be moving to the Packhouse this


    afternoon. Dr. West still wants to


    see her twice a week as she has a few health issues and the wolfsbane isn’t leaving her system as


    quickly as he hoped.”


    “Put her in Maya’s old room. Make sure Kelly buys her some proper clothing since Ruby isn’t able to


    leave the Pack grounds yet….”|


    put my hand on his arm. “What’s wrong, Tuli?”


    “Maya and I have already prepared her room. We also put a lot of the clothing that we outgrew as we


    gained weight in the closet for her. It’s only lightly used and we can buy her proper clothing for her


    when she’s at her ideal weight. Ruby said she is hoping to be a


    warrior after all of her health issues clear up,” I exined.


    “Well, it seems like the Luna has handled everything for now,” Markus said proudly.


    “Indeed, should I have your assistant make a reservation?”


    “Yes, that Italian ce please,” Markus turned to me, “Let’s go up and nap.” he said, taking a leaf out of


    my hair with a smirk on his face.
