Part 9: Death and Clarification
Parker
Annette was going to keep Belladonna sedated for at least 24 hours, to help with the healing process, he stood looking down at her. She’d been through a lot, she had died on that surgical bed after the removal of Freya, and he wondered if those nightmares she’d been having were about this very thing; the removal of Freya from her.
He also wondered if Belladonna understood that Freya was in fact Selena’s wolf, and that was why she’d never lost a single she–wolf or pup in her lifetime, because Freya could simply will them to stay alive. He didn’t know and wondered if Belladonna knew. There was no mention of Citron Wolves being able to do what she did to save she–wolves and their pups.
Though that book on Citron wolves only talked of the fertility of her wolf, and how she was used by others, what if no one realized there was more to her. Bella had told him she had to stay for Bridgit’s pregnancy and be there to deliver the pups. It was likely that with the other use of the Citron wolf being clear, this particular thing could have been overlooked.
Something never noticed about them, due to only selling them on a super moon, one night in certain
packs and then them being moving on to the next pack, or returned to the home pack to wait for the next
super moon. This ability to save the lives of she–wolves and pups being delivered; it could have been
missed entirely.
He walked from the pack hospital. It was morning, and he had to go and talk to Whitney and Milly about
what had actually gone
was time. They’d not not a task he relished doing, but now that she was out of surgery and stable, it
was time. They’d not long woken up themselves had slept through everything thankfully.
But he couldn’t continue to say nothing, it had been all night, and they knew she was in the hospital, just not the real reason for it. He knew that both Whit and Milly would want to see her and, likely before breakfast, or come and have breakfast with her. That was their normal.
Shannon had told him Whit was awake and a bit on the anxious side. Milly was up and doing okay, but their son thought something was wrong, that Whit kept looking at him. The boy wasn’t so blind to the things that went on around him. Though he hadn’t said anything because Milly was right there.
He stepped into the Gamma suite where everyone was and Whit not only looked up at him but at the clothes he was wearing, and then, a little surprisingly, at his neck. It seemed Whit didn’t know what was going on but had his own thoughts on the matter. From what he’d just seen, he thought that maybe he and his mother had marked and mated.
“Whit.” He stated, motioning for him to come out into the hallway. He saw the boy look at Milly. “Just you for the moment.” He stated quietly, trying not to draw Milly’s undivided attention. She was only four and playing happily with Shannon’s son right that minute. She was too young to understand, and he knew how she’d become part of their family, and didn’t want to stress her out or get scared and feel like she was losing another mother.

He closed the door and even as he turned to look at Whit, the boy asked “Mum?”

In the pack hospital and fully sedated,” Parker stated. “There is more though… something happened to Freya.” He sighed. “I won’t lie to you Whitney, you’re old enough to understand… Freya is no longer bound to your mother, is in fact gone from her completely.”
“Selena took her back then?” Whit murmured.
“How’d you know that?” Parker asked right back, surprised the boy knew the truth.
“I dreamed it… or… maybe not a dream. Selena spoke to me, told me mum had to be reborn. I didn’t
understand that really.” He looked up at Parker. “She is alive?” he asked.
“Yes” he nodded. “The reborn, I understand that. She died before my very eyes. In the pack hospital,
Annette restarted her heart and I gave her blood to help. She’s in the Luna Medical Suite for now.” He saw
it, fear touch his boy at his words, as he learned the truth of the night’s events. That his own mother had
actually died and been brought back.
He knelt down and reached out and hugged Whit to him, as he saw tears well up and spill over, and down his son’s cheeks “It’s going to be alright Whit.” He murmured reassuringly as his son cried.
Parker knelt there and let him cry for as long as he needed to. It was a lot to take in and deal with, why he’d not told him last night and let him feel like this, for the length of time it took for the surgery to be completed. It had been hard enough on himself he couldn’t imagine how the boy or Milly would feel about it. Or try and cope for that long.
“I’ll take you and Milly down to the pack hospital soon, to see her.” he spoke gently after Whit settled “I didn’t want Milly to be so scared she reverts back to how she was before becoming your sister… You know her better than I do. What do you think is the best way to tell her? I’ll do it, of course.” He didn’t want Whit
to think it was up to him.
Whit just stared at him and then shook his head, as he wiped his tears away. “I… I don’t know.” He
murmured.
“Alright.” Parker nodded. “You didn’t feel anything though, and neither did Milly?” he asked, didn’t want to
“Alright, I’m going to take you both to the hospital to see your mum. I’ll tell Milly she’s sleeping at Annette’s orders, because she’d not been sleeping well. Okay. Annette wants to keep her asleep all day today.”
