Chapter 107
Rebel POV
It’s the day after the surgery. Austin and my grandparents never left my side. Austin told me everyone including Renata wanted to stay but he sent them back to the pack house to rest so they could respond to any threats while
he was here with me.
I’m finally back in our room in the pack house. Austin has drawn a bath for us. Usually, when he does this it’s because he wants to talk, and this time was no different. He fills me in on what Renz and Jessup found. Then he spoke to me about Elias. But he left what he and my grandpa spoke to the doctor about. My mind is still reeling at the revelations of my bloodwork.
“Why didn’t Dr. Hadley tell me about my bloodwork?” I asked. You would think I would be the first one to find
out.
“I’m not sure. She said she ran the tests a second time to be sure of the results. Maybe that’s why she didn’t say anything, and then everything happened at the pack hospital, so she wasn’t able to have that conversation with you.” He told me.
He starts washing my stomach and breasts with a washcloth and I close my eyes and enjoy my mate’s rough hands on me. I lean my head back and let out a small moan.
Austin chuckles against the side of my head, “Does my mate like me touching her?”
I let out a relaxed sigh, “Always.”
Much too soon he stops washing me with the washcloth, “Your grandfather says you need to be present with the warriors for the pact. Since it will require your blood. Honestly, my mind is still trying to process everything he told me, darling.”
“I know. I’m kind of shock that this blood line exists and it’s part of my blood line. I’m also shocked there is no beta blood line in me too. You are right, there is a lot to process, but I don’t think we are going to have the time to process clearly right now.” I said.
“How are you feeling physically? Any tenderness or soreness?” My mate asks me.
I love how concerned he always is about me. He always makes me feel cherished. I’m not going to let anyone take me from him. I want to protect us and much as he wants to protect me.
“Roxie has done a fabulous job of fixing me up, my mate. The little pain I felt before, the one that no one noticed, and I always worked around is gone. I feel a huge difference. The only tenderness I feel is from the incisions: Even though they are healed, they are still a little tender. I’m sure it will be fine in a few hours.”
We finish bathing and then jump in the shower to rinse off. Austin is keeping his hands to himself and it’s getting on my nerve, but I know he is just taking care of me. I won’t fuss for a couple more hours until I’m one hundred percent recovered. Then I may have to take advantage of my mate tonight in our bed.
‘I love that idea. I would say wait though. The tenderness is lingering because I’m tired. Let me recover some too, Rebs.’ Roxie tells me. She has been quiet since she started working on healing me. She knows the importance of getting me healed completely.
‘I will keep my hands to myself, for now Rox. You focus on getting your energy back. You have done an incredible

job healing me. Thank you!’ I tell her.
“Everything okay, darling?” Austin asks with one eyebrow raised. Damn it, he looks sexy.
“Everything is perfect when you look at me that way.” I tell my sexy as fuck mate.
He smiles wide, “Oh really, little mate?” he leans in and kisses me. After a moment, he deepens the kiss and gently pushes me against the wall. When he pulls back, he rests his forehead on mine.
“I’m trying hard not to lose control, darling. You make it extremely hard. You need to finish recovering.”
