Chosen Just To Be Rejected by Jennifer Francis novel Chapter 113

Bella

She didn’t really have a problem with Parker being the one to look after Whit and Milly. He was Whit’s dad and Milly was getting along with him well, had likely bonded to him in her own distress over seeing Bella in the hospital, unconscious with IV lines running and an ECG monitor hooked up to her constantly.

She might not have known the exact truth, but seeing anyone in a room with machines beeping and things attached to them, even children her age understood something was wrong; that a person was sick.

It was likely Milly had needed comfort and Parker had given it, so much so that she was now bonded to him, likely from what she’d seen this morning Milly asleep on him, and then this afternoon, sharing food with him, and all the times he’d been able to pick her up, she was as bonded to him as she was to herself.

Her little girl had been upset about Whit having a dad, and she didn’t have one. Now it seemed that her little girl was looking at Parker in maybe that same capacity. She also knew that Parker wasn’t going to stop her from doing it. He’d told her he’d bleed Milly to him and he to her, so there would be a full father/daughter bond there and take her as his own if she’d accept him once more.

She’d not made any decisions about that, couldn’t, didn’t have any connections to anyone at the time. To make a decision like that, but she did think about it, and watch him at times with not only Whit but Milly as well with a view to answering his question. Though she had no idea how long it would take for her to make that decision. They had very long lives and so it didn’t she think really matter if she took a few weeks or months to make that choice.

Both Whit and Milly were it seemed okay with Parker being the one that stayed at the house with them while she was in the hospital. Though she was glad he’d accepted doing that at the house and not insisted on it being in the Alpha Suite solely because she was in the hospital.

If Whit had asked to see the Alpha Suite and wanted to stay up there of his own accord before this event; that rendered her unable to look after them. Had previously done so, she wouldn’t have cared either way.

But Whit hadn’t done that, and so she did not want to push him into doing that, just because of this situation. She knew he would do it when he was ready. She was only a little surprised that Parker had offered himself up to watch them, and be there for them. She figured it was probably something he actually wanted. And not just for him to be closer to Whitney, but to show her he could be a good dad as

well.

Though he didn’t know he didn’t need to actually do that, she’d always thought he’d be a good dad, though she’d thought he’d also be pretty strict, and it did surprise her quite a bit that he wasn’t.

He’d also spent more time with her and the children than in his office over the past week, and had seemed to just let others within his pack or head office run the business for him. She had a feeling Kane, Shannon and Axel were attending to a lot of pack business related things while he wasn’t doing that.

She knew they were all capable of doing that, holding down the fort and running the pack and the

Ciam

businesses as well. Had been able to do that when she’d been here, nothing would have changed in that regard.

Parker sat that night with her and the children, and they had dinner together. He’d had meals prepared and sent down here from the packhouse. He smiled at her and stated it was nice to eat just the four of them, ” like a family.” Had been his words.

She’d not said anything at all, let that one go even though she’d seen Milly smile at him, and Whit nod his head but say nothing. She’d also seen Vex look at her several times during the afternoon and now evening. Wondered if Parker’s wolf wanted to say something to her or if he was just watching her for whatever

reason.

They couldn’t talk privately, but she saw Whit notice it, that boy was observant when he was in the same room as her and Parker. Likely waiting to see what was going to happen between the two of them. Parker wasn’t so subtle in his interest in her at the moment. Though he kept his hands to himself, he always smiled at her over the week they’d been there.

She had a feeling from everything she was seeing today, including the way the nurses and Annette looked at Parker, and occasionally herself, full open curiosity on their faces as to what they were all seeing and what they thought was going on.

She was in the Luna’s Medical Suite. And she did question him about that after the new nurse on duty, one she’d not known, looked from her to Parker and smiled. Even Belladonna had known what she was

thinking, her Alpha had found his Mate.

Only to have Parker state “It’s your suite, where else would I put you!” with a full smile.

She’d frowned at him and stated, “Not my suite.”

“Yes, it is” he countered, “it’s a Luna suite, and you are and always will be a Luna ranked wolf. Any Luna may reside within the Luna Medical Suite. Including yourself.” He’d stated, “So technically, it is your suite”

Her eyes had narrowed on him, and he’d smiled a little more, was amused over there in his chair, she could see, “You won’t win this one, Belladonna.” he’d stated simply, “I’ve got you on a technicality. And no
