Chapter 56

***Chastity***

The next several weeks flew by for me. The new classes were hard, but I enjoyed them, very much. My instructors were also impressed with me as I did very well on every assignment, and was prepared for every question they asked me. They were also impressed with the fact that I took the time to read ahead, so I was properly prepared.

My sessions with Dee-Dee had also been going well. We talked a lot about what had happened the day Rowen, Jax, and Dimitri had visited. She did a really good job of talking to me about what I had been feeling, and why I was feeling what I was that day. She really helped me understand it all. We had spent the rest of my sessions discussing what I had been through. We focused a lot on trying to change the way I thought of those of higher rank than me.

I only had one meeting with Luna Clair due to her having some things to do, and I had school work to do any way. I didn’t get to see Norm, and Lexi as much as I usually did as we only had one class together at first. Lexi ended up switching to two of my introduction classes. She seemed to be enjoying the classes. The three of us still had at least breakfast, and dinner together, along with Marcus. We spent weekends doing things, and they showed me around their pack town more. I ended up signing up for a drawing class too. Lexi, and I did that one together. I enjoyed it, and it was relaxing.

We also still did self defense class together. Matt was slowly starting to teach us the proper way to swing a punch, as we continued to work on strengthening our bodies. I always made sure to watch every move Matt made before attempting to mimic them. I guess I didn’t do very well with it as he would always stop, and adjust the way I was standing or moving. Unfortunately he did this by touching me which always made me uncomfortable. Lexi, and Norm told him constantly not to touch me, but he ignored them almost every time. He even ignored me the one time I asked him not to touch me.

Unfortunately I didn’t get any visitors from home the last two weekends, but that had been expected. The last two weekends most of them had to go to other packs for meetings, or had meetings at our pack. I talked to, and video chatted with everyone regularly though so that helped. Thankfully I hadn’t had any more emotional disastrous moments for the last two weeks, but I knew that could change at any moment.

I hoped that didn’t happen over the next week though. Today I was going home for a week to celebrate Independence Day with my family, and friends. Colby was coming to pick me up as he was at Denu filling out paperwork. He had been accepted, and would be starting at the end of summer. Once he was done he was picking me up, and we were going home. I was so excited to see everyone. I had just finished packing up stuff for Lilac, and getting her into her carrier when I got a text from Colby that he was in the parking lot, waiting for me.

I looked around my room to make sure I hadn’t forgotten anything. Once I was satisfied I had everything I wanted to take home with me, I attempted to walk out my door only to realize I had too much stuff to carry. I had

my book bag with my laptop, and books to read for class, a suitcase that had my clothes as well as things Lilac would need, my purse, and Lilac in her carrier. I even brought the Luna Bible to show Molly, and Melissa. It was just not going to work. After a lot of debate I decided Lilac would be fine. without her carrier. I took her out, shoved the blanket I put in there for her into my suitcase, and put her in her harness. She had gotten a lot better about it over the last weeks. She still preferred sitting on my shoulder to walking though. She had been spayed, and got her shots so we were outside a lot more than before I found she liked to ride on Leila’s back when they were outside together.

Finally satisfied, I left my room, only to find Lexi leaning against the wall waiting for me. I smiled at her as I pulled my door shut behind me. I noticed she had a suitcase, and book bag with her as well. I figured with her staying at the pack house she wouldn’t really need much, but I guess I was wrong.

“Hey small fry. You ready?” Lexi asked.

“Yes. All set.” I replied.

“Good. Lets go.”

“Yes please. Colby is in the parking lot waiting on me, and I don’t know how much longer he’s going to sit there before becoming inpatient.”

“Eh. He’ll wait for you.”

“Yeah he will, but he’ll be grumpy if he has to wait too long.”

“That I believe.”

“Are Norm, and Marcus not coming to say goodbye?”

“Oh. They had to run off to Norm’s parent’s house. His one sister is in labor, and that’s always a big production for the family. They don’t want to crowd the pack hospital so all of the family who still lives in the pack gathers there, and waits for the phone call that the pup was born, and that they can visit.”

“Oh. That’s so exciting.”

“Yeah. I’ve never experienced it, but from the sound of it, it is exciting.”

“Well if you decide to become a midwife, you’ll experience it a lot.”

“Very true. Although I think I’d like to witness a birth or two before I am set on being a midwife, and I should figure out if I like pups.”

“That’s true. So what are your plans for the week?”

“Oh. I didn’t tell you?”

“Nope. You’ve changed the subject every time I have asked.”

We were just reaching the car when I said this. Colby quickly hoped out, after popping the trunk.

“Hey short stack.” Colby said excitedly.

“Hey Colby.” I responded with a huge smile.

“You ready to go?”

“Oh yeah. Let me put this in the trunk.” I said indicating my suitcase.

“I’ve got it. Lex, hand yours over too.”

It took me a second to register what he said before I asked, “Are you dropping her off at the pack house before we leave? That’s really nice of you Colby.”

“Nope. Surprise small fry! I’m going with you to check out your pack!” Lexi squealed, and did a Norm
