Chapter 156

I sigh as I nod. “I think we’re going to have to this round.”

“How are you thinking of doing it?”

“The two large black straps that go around him and the bed. I’m going to make some accommodations so he’s more comfortable though.”

Angela nods as she goes back to the counter. Cole’s skin flinches every time I hear her put a set of restraints away. I watch her silently as she kneels beside the bed and starts attaching the restraint system to the underside of it.

“I’m going to start laying you down, Cole. This is only temporary and I won’t leave your side.”

“I can’t do this. I’m scared and weak. I’m sorry alpha. So, so sorry.”

He’s whining hard as I persuade him down onto the bed, laying with him while Angela lifts his legs onto the bed.

I feel him grab hold of my shirt as he buries his face into my neck. I stay with him as he whimpers through his fears, waiting for him to calm much like I still do for Damian any time he has to have something big done in the hospital wing.

“I need you to let me go so I can start making you comfortable. It’s getting quite late at night and you’re more than deserving of a decent sleep.” I whisper softly.

He slowly releases his grip on me as I encourage him to lay on his back. Angela has gone over to the cabinets and is pulling out the various medications and supplies needed for stitching his head and lancing the abscess near his neck.

His eyes are closed as he concentrates heavily on his breathing. We seem to have come to an understanding that this needs to be done. He places his arms over his eyes once he lets go of me, his feet are flat against the bed with his knees in the air. I work quickly, grabbing pillows to tuck on each side of him before lowering his arms gently to his chest. I rub his legs until he lowers them before I cover his body up to his arms with a thick flannel sheet. I place a pillow over his legs before picking up both sides of the strap that’s going to help keep him on the bed.

“Keep up the deep breathing, Cole. This is the first of two straps. I’m keeping this very simple and it’s only temporary. I will remove them once you’re comfortable with what we’re doing.”

“I don’t get comfortable sir. You won’t be able to loosen me.”

His voice is cracking as he struggles to maintain his calmness. He’s moving his arms uncomfortably as I tighten the strap around his legs. Moving his legs rhythmically, testing his ability to move as I move towards the head of the bed. His eyes are closed but his face is contorted with fear and anxiety as his open mouth breaths become short and fast. He’s settled his hands over his eyes again, soft whimpers coming from his throat. I wrap my hands around his wrists using my thumbs to gently rub the backs of his hands. He tugs gently, trying to get out of my grip.

“Cole,” I speak gently. “I need you to try to trust.”

Angela has made her way back over to us just as Cole opens his eyes. Looking deep into mine the fear and panic is immeasurable.
