Chapter 14: Chapter 14
Terry's pov:
I close the door to my dad's office and we head up to my room. I now have more shit on my mind to think about. I may not want a mate right now but the idea of never having what my parents have makes me think really hard about a mate.
I really don't think I can pick from any of the girls in our pack. Not that there is really anything wrong with them I just don't feel like they are for me I have a type a certain type and that type is the girl in my dreams.
Dreams that will probably not ever come true, how can I ever hope to find anybody to compare her to? Not going to happen not in this life time.
I go ahead and lead Mark into my bedroom and motion for him to sit down in the seat across from my desk and I go around to my chair and sit down and let out a big sigh. I am really worried about tomorrow and what's going to happen I was supposed to protect her I am the soon to be alpha of this pack and I couldn't even protect one of my people. Just why am I calling her mine she is not part of my pack.
Mark sits down and asks me “hey man what are we going to do now that we are not going to find our mates.”
“I am not sure I mean everyone is waiting for some queen to be born I mean come on the royals died over a hundred years ago and she is not born yet. Heck she probably want be born in our life time I figure. Anyway I don't know about you but right now I am not going to worry about it too much. Let's face it we did not want to find one yet so that means we get to really enjoy our graduation and birthday party. Besides we have bigger problems to worry about come tomorrow.”
Mark asks “what do you think will happen tomorrow? You think they will make us leave our homes?”
“I am not sure, if they do it will be my entire fault for not protecting her. All's we can do is wait and see what happens. Why don't you go to bed and get some rest I am sure after the day we have had we both need some rest.”
I watch Mark stand up he told me good night and that he will see me in the morning. I am still sitting in my desk chair with my thoughts all jumbled up in my head. Tired but not really sleepy, I jump up and head out of my room and down the stairs and out the front door. I don't even bother to strip I just jump off the front porch and turn into my wolf. I go ahead and give Dakota the reigns while I sit back and do my thinking. I always do my best thinking when I let Dakota out. I am not worried about running across any rogues or anything heck Dakota has better senses than I could ever have.
Dakota makes it to our favorite spot, a small lake we had found one day on one of our runs, he takes a drink and decides to lay down on the bank all relaxed now.
I figured this as good a chance as I am going to get to ask him questions about his attitude earlier with Chrystal and what dad has told us. So I ask him “what's up.”
He just replies “nothing much."
“How can you just reply nothing much when you went ape shit when you seen Chrystal in Mark's arms or when the doctor's and nurse's tried to take her from your arms? I mean is she our mate and I am not feeling the pull yet?" I scream at him
“It is not my story to tell, all's I can say is she is special to us” he says nonchalantly.
"What kind of crap answer is that?" I get mad and block him out and start thinking some more. I start thinking about my dream girl I figured that will calm me down some but all of a sudden Chrystal's face comes in view, now why am I thinking about her I want to be thinking about my dream girl. I keep trying to bring up the features of my dream girl but all's I keep getting is Chrystal's face. Aggravated now I tell Dakota to take us home, I figured once I fall asleep I will start dreaming about the girl I want.
Before we get to the clearing I go ahead and shift so I can get dressed. Yes when we werewolves shift our clothes are shredded so we leave shorts at trees for occasions such as this. I put the shorts on and start heading home still with my thoughts running wild I can't seem to focus on one thing right now it's all just jumbled up in there right now. With no solution in site, before I know where I am going I finally come to a stop and look up and find myself at the pack hospital instead of my house. What am I doing here? Oh well I am here I might as well go inside to check on Chrystal, maybe then I will stop thinking about her.
I ask the nurse at the station on her progress she tells me there is none. I just let out a sigh and tell the nurse I am going to look in on her. She just smiles and nods her head to me.
I head down the hall to her room, I figured I will just take a peek at her and then head home to get some rest. I open the door and take a look at her small frame laying on the bed. She is hooked up to a couple of machines right now. I know one is a heart monitor so I walk over and check it out. Not that I know what I am looking at but everything sounds normal and her heart rate looks good. The other one is an IV bag giving her medicine and stuff I guess.
I pull a chair up to her bed and decided to sit down for a bit. I start to study her features. She really is beautiful and so small laying in that bed. As I said before it has always been hard to figure out what type of body she has cause of the oversize clothes she wore, from the looks of her now those clothes must have been three times her size. She is not short by any means I figure around five foot seven inches. She does not wear heals or anything like that she always has combat boots on when I have seen her.
I reach out and pick her hand up and the heart monitor starts going hay wire. Oh shit what have I done now, I laid her hand back down and the monitor settled back down. About that time the nurse comes in to check on the monitor to make sure everything was okay. She pushed a few buttons and turned to me to say she thought she might have woke up. I just nodded my head no then she walked back out.
I laid my head on the bed to try to get rid of this headache I was starting to get. Before I knew it the sweet bliss of blackness of sleep took me over and I welcomed it.
