The Luna and her Quadruplet Pups by Jane Above Story

Chapter 115

Jane

My cheek is pressed to the cool wood floor as a pair of large, heavy boots approach from the doorway. They stop a few feet from face, and while I want to cower from Ethan’s anger, l’m also beyond relieved that he’s here. I don’t get sick often, and when I do I usually have to just power through – no matter how terrible I feel.

One of the joys of single parenting is that there’s no backup in times like these, no one to step in and take care of your responsibilities when you aren’t up to the, task.

Linda has been taking care of me of course, and though I love her, she’s simply not the one l want. My wolf has been aching for Ethan, craving her mate in a time of need.

My hazy brain reels with the realization that I’ve started thinking of Ethan as my mate again, but in some ways it’s not a surprise. Il always yearn for Ethan when I feel poorly, but this is the first time since the divorce I might actually get my wish.

I don’t even realize l’ve closed my eyes until l feel Ethan’s soothing touch, his tender hands stroking down my back as he kneels down next to me. Blinking up at him, my vision blurs slightly and I emit a piteous m0an.

A sympathetic purr rumbles in Ethan’s ch3st, “Poor baby.” He croons, sliding his arms beneath me, “come on, let’s get you off the floor”

“l don’t think I can” I tell him, not processing the fact that l’ve already left the ground.

“Don’t worry about it, sweetheart.” He advises, gathering me to his chest, “‘ve got you.”

The next thing I know we’re in the hallway, and Ethan is sweeping past Linda and Eric, carrying me up a flight of stairs, “Where are we going?” I murmur, trying to remember if we walked this way when we snuck on board.

“I’m taking you to my cabin” Ethan informs me, and then l’m calling the ship’s medic.”
