106 Defence

Tia

The revelation about Regan was shocking, and neither of us could speak. The signs were there, but we chose to ignore them. Stacy was shaking like a little child. I had to take the phone away from her sight so she could relax a bit. She buried her head in Aesops chest, and he held her. She sounded like a little child too

Please dont let him get me. Please dont let him come here,She pleaded. If I had doubted that she tried to kill herself, now my doubts were justified. Stacy did not want to die at all, and that made my heart break. How could her daughter poison her? Everything she did was for Monica. She risked Regans wrath for Monica. She stayed in hell with Aesop for that stupid girl, and she did this. I could not imagine what would make Monica do such a thing to her mother.

Why did Monica cry all through the ordeal? The girl was an excellent actress. She screamed and showed fear. She even stayed with her in the hospital. The horror of her reasons dawned on me. Was she staying with her at the hospital to monitor her slow death? It was a sad event

We need to get help for Stacy,I told Aesop, and he nodded at me and kissed her head. He held her tightly, and my heart reached out to them. Stacy was a bitch quite alright, but she never tried to kill anyone. She was annoying, no doubt. She was a liar and a schemer, but this was too much of a price for her bad behaviour. She had no reason to do all the nasty things, but realising where she was coming from was understandable. That was how she chose to deal with her issues.

Should we escort her to her bedroom?I asked Alpha Aesop, and he looked conflicted. He still did not want her in his room, but he did not want to abandon her in these conditions. I had never seen Stacys back before, but I noticed it for the first time while Aesop was holding her. She had silver wounds on her back, and they were old. Only silver injuries would leave a mark on a wolfs skin. It looked like lashes, and then I saw the rose tattoo at the back of her shoulder where Regan’s mark was supposed to sit. The artist did an excellent job because I could not see the mark. Everything looked like it was part of the tattoo

I will care for her for now. Maybe you can help me send for a doctor in the morning, Alpha Aesop requested, Your father, most preferably,and I knew why. He wanted everything that was happening to remain in the family

My father isnt a shrink, Alpha,I told him, and he nodded

I know, but all pack doctors are trained in Psychology and Psychiatry. He should be able to attend to her.He said to me. I did not know that, but I doubt he was lying, so I nodded and took out my phone to make a call. My father answered on the third ring. Tia,he said, and I sighed because I could hear the ball game in the background. He was off duty

Alpha Aesop said you are a qualified shrink too?I asked him, and he began to laugh

It is a requirement for all pack doctors,he explained, as Alpha Aesop had told me

We need you to consult privately for Stacy Moon. Alplea Aesop wants you to come to the mansion in the morning.I told him, and he said he would be there. I could not have a long conversation with my father because I was in Alpha Aesops presence, so I told him I would be expecting him and hung up. The moment I hung up, I got up Kimberly copied me, and we were ready to leave

Are you going back to your wing?Alpha Aesop asked, and i nodded. Please remain on this wing. Your mates are not home. We should be all on one part of the house.He said, and I knew he wasnt trying to keep us close; he wanted us to be around so we could help Stacy We can stay in Calebs room,Kimberly said, and I nodded. I did not want to say no to alpha Aesop, but I wasnt comfortable sleeping in Calebs room on the rightwing. I wanted to return to my room and hug the pillow Luke lies on. Kimberly and I went to the left wing to get ready for bed. While Kimberely went to get Emma from Michelle, I changed into my night clothes. It took about an hour to finish what we went to do on the leftwing, and we returned to the rightwing

I was still yet to figure out why I heard Alpha Aesop‘s voice in my head. It wasn’t long before I figured out what was happening. I woke Kimberly up. It took a while, but she woke up eventually. “We are under attack! get Emma and hide in the estate bunker.” I
