The Son of Red Fang by Diana Sockriter novel Chapter 360

Chapter 360

I enter the bathroom to find that he’s still sitting on the floor where I left him. Kneeling down in front of him, he struggles to look at me.

“Cole.” I whisper. “Let’s get you off this floor. Alpha’s going to come back in a few minutes. I’ll get him to show us where the thermostat for this room is. It’s a little cold for you right now.”

I keep my voice soft and gentle as I stand again. I reach my arm out to help him. I can tell that it’s a struggle for him to get to his feet again but he eventually manages to do so with a long groan. I guide him slowly to the bed where he sits on the edge.

“Cole, I need you to watch as I know you don’t trust me and it will be even worse in your current state.” I instruct him gently.

I hand him the bottle of water knowing that he would want to look it over.

“Don’t open it yet as I feel your tremors will make it difficult for you not to spill it. I’m going to help you take some medication and drink the water until we can get this panic attack under control.”

He nods in response to my instructions but I already know this is going to be a huge challenge. I can feel his mind racing and his gaze is locked onto a spot on the floor. He is in an extremely submissive state even though it feels like he’s ready to put his fist through the wall, a feeling that my past doesn’t take lightly.

“Take the bottle and look over the cap. I’m going to open it in front of you so you can see I’ve done nothing to it. I’m going to do your medication the same way. I know it’s going to be a challenge but I need you to take the medicine that I give to you.”

He again nods silently without taking his gaze away from the floor.

“Cole, take the water.”

I’ve taken on a firmer tone this time and it appears to work as he finally looks up enough to take the bottle from my hand.

“Now, you have two options. I can open it in front of you and drink enough of it that your tremors won’t cause it to spill or I can open it and set it on the dresser until you’re ready to drink from it.”

I’m quickly disappointed as all Cole manages to do is hand the bottle back to me before dropping his head in submission again.

“Cole, what are you most comfortable with?”

I soften my tone again but all he can do is respond with a frustrated whine. I sigh as I place the

bottle down. Getting down on my knees, I crawl my way between his legs. I place my arms across th knees, forcing him to sit up off them and look at me, I take my time moving my hand towards hi

head.

“Why is it hard for you to answer my question?”

I can easily tell the chaos that he’s feeling as I watch his eyes dart quickly around the room.
