The One He Claimed by Cooper

Chapter 129: Girl Talk

Beth

"Hello. May I come in?" Penny asks. She's carrying the blanket that I'm guessing is for Chloe.

"Of course. It's not my room."

"Yes, it is. For as long as you choose to stay here. Or if you become a permanent member of our pack, we can see what other rooms are open and you can choose which room you want," Beta Kinsley says. "Your brother was worried about you. I told him I'd come check on you. Oh, and Dr. Felicity said you have five minutes, Beta.”

She sighs. "Can I leave them to you, Penny?" Beta Kinsley asks.

"Of course, I'd like to get to know my mate's sisters," she says smiling at me.

"If you need anything at all, Beth, let any pack member know, and they'll contact me or Luna Sophie. Now, I have to go before Dr. Felicity sends my mate after me," Beta Kinsley says before walking out. "Here you go, Brutus," Penny says, laying out the blanket for Chloe.

He gently lays her down before stepping back. "Do you need anything else?" he asks me.

"This is more than I had last night. It's perfect, thank you," I say, just as Leah comes back in, her arms full of things. Brutus is in front of her in two steps, taking most of the load out of her

arms.

"What's all this?" Penny asks, walking over. "Oh good! We have clothes, nightgowns, shampoo, conditioner, toothbrushes, toothpaste, hairbrushes, hair ties. Oh Leah, you thought of everything." "I have a daughter. I know what young women need," she says smiling.

"I can look after them, if you two want to go," Penny says to them. I'm not sure why she wants to be alone with me, but I get the impression that she's trying to get them out of here so she can speak to me. I hope she's not a horrible person. There has to be at least one in this pack, right?

When they're gone, she turns to me, still smiling. "I'm Penny. We haven't been formally introduced."

"I'm Beth."

"Beth. It's nice to meet you. I...I know you've been through a lot, and all of this must be overwhelming for you, especially if you're as exhausted as Jaime is. But I was hoping that maybe we could talk, just briefly, while you get ready for bed?"

I nod. "Sure."

She turns and looks at Chloe. "Is she a sound sleeper?"

"She hasn't been lately, but when we were at home she was,
