Underwater 46 The Right Doctor
The Nurse hooked Ethan up to the antibiotics and left the room. Keith stood with Dr James and Camila in the living room to discuss Ethan's health. "So what do we do now?" Keith asked the doctor, and he smiled. "He is alright now. The antibiotics are just to keep his wound from being infected before his wolf abilities take over," Dr James said with a smile, then turned to Camila. "Remember the detox regiment," He said, and she nodded. "You have to start it tomorrow morning. So he can recover faster," James said, and Keith frowned. "What about you?" Keith asked, confused. He wondered why Dr James was giving Camila his job to do. Camila realised Ethan had not told Keith of the arrangements about Dr James leaving, so she smiled. "Actually, Beta, Dr James planned on leaving after the surgery. He would have stayed a day to ensure no complications, but since the surgery went well, he would want to leave. I told Alpha, and he was okay with it," She added quickly, and Keith shook his he
Underwater 47 The Letter
Keith stayed in the living room, shocked at what Joesph had called to tell him. He searched his mind for many things he would have done differently that morning. He wished he had delayed Dr James. He wasn't sure if Dr Rosenberg was telling the truth, but he knew the doctor needed to be arrested pending the investigation. He ran his fingers through his hair and took deep breaths. Sebastien and Cynthia's attack on Whitewood was unexpected, but they had done it and made Joseph sign away the pack. It would have all been over if Joseph had not thought to sign his father's name. It was still over on the surface because until Sebatien verified the document, he would still believe that Whitewood now belonged to him. They could not afford to make trouble now because they needed Ethan to recover fully. Keeping their heads down was a must, and he did not know what Sebastein would do during that time. He wanted to call their Gamma and Delta to join them, but he would hold off until Ethan knew
Underwater 48 The Prognosis
Joseph walked around the hospital premises distraught, trying everything he could to get his shit together. How can everything crumble in a day? He remembered the signs. They were there. Her paleness, coughs, and fatigue. She wasn't the tardy type, but she was now always late and less active. Her hospital visits were constant. He should have seen it. He wondered why he never noticed it. "I guess we believed she was too strong to break," Rex, his wolf, said, but Joseph growled. Tears streamed down his face. He did not want to lose the only parent he had left. He realised why she was desperate about grandchildren and why she went to get Meadow for Ethan. He realised she was trying to see most of it before she left them. His tears fell freely, and he did not know how to tell Ethan, knowing that Ethan had just finished surgery. Joseph roamed the place for almost three hours, trying to get a grip on himself before returning to the hospital to check on Amber. They had given her a ro
Underwater 49 Going Home
Ethan hung up, and Meadow looked at him a bit worried. She knew he had found out about his mother, and her heart reached out to him."How is he?" She Linked Ethan, and he squeezed her hand gently."We have to go home tomorrow,'" He said, and she nodded, already knowing that would happen."My mother is in a coma, and her liver is failing," He told her. He had to say it aloud to get it out of his system. Meadow's eyes welled up in tears, and she told him what Amber had told her."While you went to Ceenas, She told me she was sick and had only two years, but she said I shouldn't tell you. That was why I always looked worried every time I saw her," She confessed through the mind link, and Ethan was shocked that Amber would confide in Meadow with something heavy. He was a bit angry that his mother would put such a burden on his wife."I would have told you, but it wasn't my secret to tell," She linked him in tears, and he tried to sit up. His back hurt, but he managed it nonetheless."Yo
Underwater 50 Processing It All
Joseph hung about the hospital for a few hours. He spent those hours pacing about and trying to find the best way to have all the pack alphas and betas tested so they could find a compatible donor for Amber. He knew he would not rest if he failed, so he thought of everything meticulously. Soon he knew it was time to go home, so he and Adam returned. At the same time, he instructed Brian to remain for security purposes.Joseph was mad about what Ashley did and why she tricked him. He honestly wondered how she planned to succeed. He believed her, and she put up a good act. He scolded himself for not being vigilant enough to catch her in a lie. He wondered how she might have gotten away with it. He planned to ask her why when she woke up. One thing was certain; he would kick her out and never look back. The pregnancy was the only reason his mother chose to defy him and house her in the mansion. The truth about the pregnancy had been exposed now, so she didn't need to stick around.
Underwater 51 The Status Quo
Ethan entered the house feeling like a stranger. Knowing that everything had been taken on the surface made the place feel alien to him. The workers were outside and welcomed them in. Just when he wheeled in, Joseph arrived, and Ethan was glad to see his brother. Joseph looked calmer than he sounded on the phone, and Ethan was proud of him because he knew he was masking his emotions. Meadow used sign language to instruct Rashel to settle Camila and Brad in their wings. With Amber in the hospital, she knew Luna's duties fell on her even though the pack no longer belonged to them.Rashel told Beatrix of Meadow's instructions, and they sprang to action. Keith took Elaine to his old room in Ethan's wing. They were all nervous being there because they knew the people that attacked the pack would be back, and they were at the centre of attention."How is she?" Ethan asked Joseph about their mother while they moved toward Ethan's wing."She is in a coma. Levi is with her," Joseph said, an
Underwater 52 Cynthia and Sebastien
Cynthia paced about the hotel room where Sebastien had taken her to. It was the following day after the attack.He asked her to wait while he met up with the Alpha. She was nervous waiting, but she had no choice. Cynthia was worried because their victory was too easy. She doubted the McClouds were down. She had told Sebatien that they should take over the pack immediately to control what was happening, but Sebastien had told her it was beyond him and they could only do as the Alpha had instructed.Cynthia did not like the way the operation had gone. She wondered why the Alpha would instruct them expressly not to kill the McClouds but only incapacitate them. Why did he want them alive, and what did he want with them? It sounded more like a personal vendetta than a takeover. She needed to be wise.She finally sat down, still feeling nervous. She was worried about so many things.After Sebastien had threatened her while she was still spying on the McClouds and feeding him information, sh
Underwater 53 Being Thorough
Ethan and Meadow spent the entire day in the bedroom. No one needed to know of the surgery. Although Rashel knew, Elaine took it upon herself to keep an eye on her without letting Rashel know. Keith had refused to give her back her phone, and she had somehow adjusted to not having a phone for now. Ethan told Meadow all Joseph had told them about his mother, and her heart reached out to Amber. Meadow knew the B-negative blood group was rare, and they might have to look outside the pack to find a donor. The possibility of success was slim because of the rarity of the blood type and their situation. She did not want Ethan to feel discouraged, so she planned to task some people secretly to search for a live donor. The day was long for Ethan. Although his back was healing fast, it felt a bit sluggish. He wanted to do so many things. He wanted to see his mother and start his secret physiotherapy. He was also worried about the people that placed the shard in his spine and Sebastien.
