The Pack's Doctor by Cooper

Chapter 99

Warren

It's been several months since we killed Brady and Dr. Stephens. It took a while, but the pack has settled into

what | guess is a more normal routine. We spar, we run patrols, Charlie and | run the pack, Yara and Noelle run

the hospital, Haynes and Laney train and manage the warriors.

Now that life has settled down, our pack is having a baby boomm pretty sure every one of my mated she-wolves

is pregnant and swho aren't mated are pregnant as well. Yara and | talked about that and we've agreed that

if both parents are fine with remaining unmated, they can. The ones who don’t agree, have to speak to both of

us so we can cto a resolution. Thankfully, now that we're having pack gatherings with Alpha Harold and his

pack, there are fewer unmated adult men and women in our pack.

Today, Yara is in the pack hospital making last minute preparations before our twins come. I'm watching Charlie

and Haynes working with Carson. It’s been a long, grueling road for him. He's struggled a lot with frustration and

anger. It made things between him and Eva strained during her pregnancy and she ended up giving birth to their

daughter a week earlier than planned. Yara said it was okay, that their baby was healthy, but that made Carson

think through his actions. He had taken a break, worked to get his and his wolf's, Dillon's, frustrations under

control. Since then, Dillon has been able to get into running patrols. He can’t run a full schedule yet, but, he’s

getting stronger and running farther every day.

“Con, Carson, you're better than this,” Laney says, coaching him through the training. He's able to hold his

own now in a one-on-one situation, so they've started pushing him in a two-on-one battle. As I've watched, I've

seen the frustration from before starting to cback. Charlie and Haynes are able to tag him one after the

other. When he spins, his prosthetic leg not moving like his leg used to, he snarls in frustration.

“Carson...” Laney begins, but | hold up my hand and step in, walking over to him. He is panting with his

frustration. | step in front of him and hold his gaze.

“Carson, first rule of battle, when your head isn’t in the fight, you lose. Your head isn’t in this battle. Your head is

thinking about what you can’t do and what you leg doesn’t do anymore. Dillon, tellI'm wrong,” | say, talking

to both Carson and his wolf.

When | don’t get a response from either of them, | nod. “Take a break, get your head in the fight. You're smarter

than this, a better fighter than this. You can do this.”

| go back to where | was standing and watch as Carson puts his hands on his hips until he catches his breath.

Then | watch as he paces, knowing that Carson and Dillon are talking, trying to get their head back where it

should be, in the battle.

When he finally stops pacing and nods that he’s ready, Laney gives the go ahead and Charlie and Haynes go at

him again. This time, he does better. He still has a long road to recovery, but Charlie and Haynes aren't able to

tag him as quickly as they had been before.

“Yes, Carson!” Laney encourages him.

| watch for a little bit longer then I get a mind link from Noelle.

‘I'm pretty sure she’s in labor, Alpha, but she’s not listening to any of us.’

from the hospital for

a couple of weeks while we adjust to our little ones, but she can’t stop our pups from coming, if that’s what's

happening.

“I don’t think you have a couple more days, my love. Our pups are coming and no matter how much you're in

charge of this hospital, you can’t control when your body is ready. Let's get you into a room.”

She growls at me, an uncharacteristic from my mate. Who told you?”

Rather than answer her, | scoop her into my arms and begin carrying her. Noelle points to a room.

“I think the more important question, Yara, is why didn’t | hear from you?” | ask her, unperturbed by her anger.

She huffs. “I don’t have tfor this today.”

“Then let's see if you're really in labor. I'm going to guess that if you thought there was any chance that you

weren't that you'd have checked. Since you haven't, I'm betting my twins are coming and my mate is going to

have to accept that,” | say, laying her down on the bed.

“Warren, there's still so much to do..."

| take her face in my hands as Noelle and Piper cin and begin getting things set up. “Your right Yara, there is

a lot for you to do. Delivering pups is no easy task and you have two to deliver. Stop worrying about the hospital.

If the others need anything, they can ask you. You're not going anywhere, you just won't be working for a couple

of weeks,” | tell her, keeping my voice calm even though I feel anything but.

My pups are coming. My pups are coming!!

“I'm here!” a breathless and very pregnant Savannah says, pushing through the door. From just outside the

room, | see Franklin. He must have driven her over here.

Yara growls again. “They called you, too?”

“You make a damn good, Beta, Savannah.”

“Thank you. My pack says the same,” she says with a hint of a smile.

“What

“Stay out of my way and help your mate to stay calm and breathe. We're going to be here for a while.”

She wasn’t wrong. It was well into the night when Savannah told wara that she could start pushing. It was
