The Son of Red Fang by Diana Sockriter novel Chapter 279

Chapter 279

Hey lessa, I heard you’ve been a bit under the weather. How are you doing this evening?

“Better, thanks. How may I help you?”

You’re always so straight to the point. Are you busy right now?”

“Ne. Just finished cleaning up after having dinner with Alpha Pierce. Do you need me to stop by?”

“I would appreciate it if you could come out to the common room. I’ve got a young man, Alpha Cole, who’s a prospect in my medical room upstairs. He was in the wing all day Tuesday, he was stable enough to set him up in the room next to mine Wednesday afternoon but I’ve had to bounce him around between the comfort room in the wing and the medical room upstairs. We had a significant discovery this morning in his blond work and I need your help to determine if it’s safe to continue trying to keep him here or if we’ve hit the point of transferring him to general.”

“That doesn’t sound too good. I’ll be out there in ten to fifteen minutes,”

“Thank you. I appreciate it.”

“No problem alpha.”

I hang up the phone before standing from the table. I run my hand through Lilly’s hair gaining her attention.

“Are you finished?”

She nods with a sigh as I gather both our plates and silverware. I return to the table for my cup, pausing for a short drink finishing the contents inside it. I can’t help but think of the way he reacted to Madisyn tipping her chair over. How was he able to catch her before she hit the ground? I stare at his plate. half full and untouched. Another element of Cole that Jamie shared.

I walk around the table and pick his plate up. I grab a roll of cling wrap and wrap it around his plate before placing it in the fridge. With the way he wrapped his arm around his stomach it seems he’s feeling too unwell to eat. Although I’m certain the incident that just happened has stirred his anxiety high as well but I’m hoping that he will consider eating it later.

I return to the table wrapping my arms around Lilly as I lean over her back. I kiss her gently behind her ear until she relaxes in my arms, leaning her head against me. I sigh as I stand attracting Damian’s attention.

“Are you okay, dad?”

I rub the back of my neck before I speak.

“I need to go get Cole and bring him back down. Is your room open? I’d like to stop in there and grab a clean pair of shorts and a t–shirt for him.”

“The door is closed but not locked.”

“Thank you, Day.”

I rub his hair briefly as I pass headed to the stairs.

“Daddy, why does Cole need Day’s clothes? Doesn’t he have some?”

“He does, Lynnie but I haven’t gotten over to his apartment to get more. What he has on is from yesterday and I have a feeling that he’s no longer going to be wearing them when I go into his room.”

“Why would he take them off?”

“Because he expects me to punish him.”

“Are you?”

Madilyn hurries from her chair nearly falling over as she runs into my legs.

“I know he didn’t listen but he didn’t hurt Maddie. Iease, daddy. He’s hurt and scared, dom kan bin no

I quickly gather her in my arms, lifting her up off the ground. With one arm under her bottom I use the other to gently hold hat der hush her near Irantle clies.

“Shhhhh. It’s okay Lynnie, I have no plans to punish him in any way. That’s why I asked Day about borrowing some clothes. Por going to talk with the some clothes on him and get him to come downstairs so Jessa can take a look at him.”

I feel her lean back and follow her movements.

“But Jessa takes care of little wolves.”

She sniffles lightly as I walk to the kitchen for a tissue.
