My eyes widened when I saw Edrick, but at the same time, my body relaxed knowing that he was here to — hopefully — help us. He glanced over at me, but clearly didn’t want anyone to know we were together, and walked up to the desk.

“Is there a problem here?” he asked the receptionist.

“Yes, Mr. Morgan,” she said, gesturing to me, “this woman is a human and she’s trying to be served before werewolves. It’s our policy to serve werewolves first.” Her eyes were wide as she spoke, and her voice shook a bit. I could tell that she knew that she would be in deep trouble if Edrick Morgan himself was here.

“Well, break policy just this once,” he said. He turned to the werewolf couple next, who still stood nearby looking utterly confused. “So sorry about that,” he said, then turned to Selina and me and addressed us. “I’ll take you to the VIP room.”

With that, he turned on his heel and began to walk toward the examination rooms. Meanwhile, the director dealt with the receptionist and the werewolf couple. I couldn’t make out exactly what was being said to the receptionist, but she seemed as though she was being reprimanded — and rightfully so, in my opinion. Just because it was policy to serve humans after werewolves didn’t mean that it was morally right to treat humans like inferiors.

Still, I followed Edrick, keeping my head down to avoid the strange looks from other patients with Selina trailing behind me. Once we were out of the waiting room, I let out a sigh of relief.

“Thank you,” Selina said, scurrying along to keep up with Edrick. “That receptionist–”

“It’s okay,” Edrick said calmly. “She was only doing what she thought was right… It is policy to serve werewolves first.”

Selina frowned, but said nothing. Edrick led us to a spacious private room. Selina went to sit on a chair in the hallway to give us some privacy, but Edrick stopped her and gestured for him to come in with us. “You deserve to see the baby, too, don’t you think?” he asked.
