The Pack's Doctor by Cooper

Then, I'd had to get myself off in the shower, twice, just to make my dick stop throbbing painfully. All of that was

a waste though when | stepped out of the shower and saw her grey-green eyes watching me. She was still

awake, waiting for me. | gotten hard again and then struggled to fall asleep, listening to her breathing that took

a very long tto even out.

I'd been pleasantly surprised with her defensive skills during our training session. She's definitely got Alpha

instincts and while she’s not a fighter and not well-trained, she’s got a good foundation.

| wake up at my usual time, feeling exhausted. Since | showered last night and I'm just going to get sweaty at

training, | grab a pair of shorts and my shoes before getting ready to go downstairs. Rather than just leaving, |

walk over to the bed and lean down to kiss Kennedy.

She surprisesnot only by being awake but also by turning her head and capturing my mouth in a kiss. It's so

unexpected that | don’t have tto hold myself or Raif back and before | know it, I'm growling and taking her

mouth in a possessive kiss. My arms wrap around her, pulling her toas | dominate her mouth.

It isn’t until | hear her sweet whimpers that reality finally comes crashing back down on me. She’s got her legs

wrapped around me, the arousal from between her bare thighs soaking my shorts.

“I have to get to training,” | pant.

“I know. | just wanted to say good morning.” Her voice is so swee, and her scent is swirling around my head

makingdizzy with need and desire.

“You should go back to sleep,” | tell her. She shakes her head.

“I'm want to order those things | need for the hospital,” she says.

“Good. You do that,” | say, setting her back on the bed and forcing myself to turn away from her. “I'll have them

send food over for you at lunchtime, since you don’t seem to remember to eat.”

I've just reached the door when she stops me.

“Quirin, wait. | wanted to talk with you about Arlo.”

I turn to look at her. “Kier told me. | took care of it.”

“I'm worried that...”

Kennedy, | spoke to Arlo. | gave him the choice of leaving the pack or running extra patrols. He chose patrols. He

won't be bothering you anymore.

| can tell she’s not quite done with our conversation, but | have to get out of here before I rip her clothes off and

bury myself inside her.

“We'll talk later,” | tell her, before practically racing from the room.

| use training to get rid of the pent-up energy and sexual frustration I'm feeling and when | go inside for

breakfast, | hear that Kennedy has already gone to hospital.

“Kier, get your food and joinin my office. We need to talk about this weekend,” | tell him. As I'm walking to

my office, | see Deborah.

“Deborah, can you take a computer over to the hospital so Kennedy can order what she needs.”

“Yes, Alpha, but do we really need all of those supplies she wants to order?”

“If Kennedy says we do, then we do,” | tell her. | have no idea what Kennedy is ordering, and | really don’t care. |

have the money and if yesterday was any indication, the hospital is making her happy.

“Okay, Alpha,” she says.

When Kier comes in, | let him know that we need to discuss Kennedy and | being away this weekend.

“Alpha Connor is having his Alpha ceremony on Saturday. Kennedy and | will be leaving early enough on Saturday

for her to spend stwith her family. Because it’s a big deal, I'm expecting that we'll spend the night.

You'll be in charge while I'm gone.”

We spend a couple of hours making sure that everything is set. Just before he leaves, | look at him.

“Maybe | should start sending you to these events, Kier,” | say.

“Why is that?” he asks, looking completely unimpressed.

“You haven't found your mate yet. Maybe she’s a Beta in one of these packs? Or maybe she’s an Alpha, who

knows,” | say to him.

“I'm good, Alpha, thanks,” he says, walking out before | can ask him any more about it.

| reach out to the kitchen omegas asking thar.meone

take Kennedy slunch when my phone rings. Look at the caller

ID and pick it up.

“Hello Farrah, what can | do for you?”

“I thought it waswho was doing something for you,” she says

“You are correct, as always, Farrah.”

She chuckles. “I am going to see you this weekend, right?”

“It's Kennedy's twin’s Alpha ceremony. I'm sure she won't want to miss it.”

“Good. Now, I'm assuming you'll be inviting her entire family to her Luna ceremony?”

“That's correct.”

“And you're making arrangements to ensure that no one attacks Alpha Warren or his family, correct?” she asks.

Chapter 123

“I'm sorry, who's the Alpha of this pack?” | ask sharply. Very few people can get away with speaking tothe

way that Farrah is.

“I have no intention of having anything to do with an attack on that family. Besides the fact that Henry is in an

alliance with Alpha Warren and will renew that alliance this weekend with Alpha Connor, Luna Yara saved my life.

And because of that, | found Harold, adopted two sons, and finally found happiness in my life that | never

expected to have again. That is a debt that | can never repay. So, | will have no part in any act of aggression

against their family, whether intentional or unintentional. | trust you, Quirin. If you tellthat you're making

plans to keep his family safe from your pack members who still harbor anger and resentment towards Alpha

Warren, then | will accept that,” she says, her tone just as sharp as

mine.

I'm familiar with Luna Yara’s impact on Farrah’s life. I've heard the story and it doesn’t surprise me. In the past, |

would never have let my pack hurt Luna Yara by attacking anyone in her family. But now, | have an even bigger

reason to ensure Alpha Warren's safety.

“I would never allow anyone to disrespect Kennedy that way. This is her home, and they are her family. | am

going to offer that any of my pack members who don’t want to be here can leave while her family is here. They

will have to accept her as their Luna first,, or they will be unwelcto return.”

“Are you going to need more warriors to help patrol your borders during that time? I'm sure Henry would be

willing to send sof his,” she says.

“Ill talk to him this weekend when we're at Connor's Alpha ceremony.”

“Perfect. Now, let's get down to business. Here's what I've planned so far...” she begins.

| spend the next hour talking through Farrah’s plans for Kennedy's Luna ceremony.

“You should talk to Luna Yara this weekend about getting a dress for Kennedy.”

A dress? | hadn't even considered that.

“Maybe Luna Yara will want to take her daughter shopping,” | say appalled at the idea of having to find a dress

for my mate.

Farrah chuckles. “Just talk to her. She'll help you figure it out.”

When we finish, it's close to tfor afternoon warrior training. head outside and see Kennedy looking around,

squatting down and looking through the grass in an area where pups play.

| walk over to her and squat down beside her.

“What are you looking for?” | ask her, not seeing anything.

“I'm not exactly sure. But when I find it, I'll let you know,” she says.
