“How long has it been since anyone has ordered supplies?” I ask Deborah. Everything in this hospital is outdated. I’m not even sure I would know how to use the x–ray machine. It looks like it’s older than I am.

“We order the basics that we need for pups; bandages, antiseptic occasionally some sutures, but that’s about it,” Deborah tells me.

“Okay, I know you said the pack basically lets their wolves heal them, but what about labor and delivery? Ultrasound machines, baby heart monitors, that sort of thing?” I ask.

“Well, it’s like I said before. We’re all used to getting by, so when we’re pregnant, we just deliver our babies.”

“And no one has ever gotten an infection? No one has lost a child because it was a breech birth?”

“Well, I didn’t say that. We have lost a couple of mothers and pups over the years due to a difficult birth, but mostly, if we lose a pup during pregnancy or delivery, we assume they weren’t strong enough to survive,” she tells me.

That might be the most archaic thing I’ve ever heard.

“I’m going to talk to Quirin, see about getting some supplies. I mean, what if someone gets really injured in an attack? We have nothing here to treat them with.”

“We have antiseptic and sutures,” she says, shrugging. I look at the barren shelves of the storage room. Well, it’s barren except for the hundreds of cobwebs in here and the one shelf that has the most basic medical supplies on it. There’s nothing for a triage kit, nothing for a crash kit. There’s nothing.

She then walks me around the rooms. Even the beds and gurneys look rusted and old, like they’ll collapse if someone lays on them. I’d be afraid to even put a pup on one of these.

I begin making a mental list of everything we’d need to bring this hospital up to speed. The amount of money it will take will be astronomical. I have no idea how much money Quirin has or is willing to put toward the hospital, but I intend to ask him.

I feel him open the mind link between us and ask if I’m about ready for dinner. I look at my watch and realize I’ve been going through the hospital all afternoon. Rather than have him walk over here just to walk back, I tell him I’ll meet him there.

I tell Deborah that I’ll see her tomorrow and then begin walking back to the packhouse. I’m excited for Quirin to show me around the pack lands. Just from the short walk between the packhouse and the pack hospital, I can tell that that pack lands are gorgeous.

When I step back inside the packhouse, the difference between what’s been done here and what’s been done at the pack hospital is night and day. Everything here is upgraded. While it is decorated simply, the furniture, paint, and hardware around the packhouse are obviously all newer. Even the kitchen has been upgraded.

I can hear the sounds of the pack and the smell of food coming from the dining hall, so I make my way there. When I step into the room, looking for Quirin, the entire room goes silent as everyone turns to stare at me.

“Hello,” I say suddenly feeling very self–conscious. If I didn’t know better, I’d say I forgot to put clothes on today, or that I

No one answers, so I look around. “I was looking for Quirin.”

“I’m right here, Kennedy. Did you get any food?” he asks, walking up behind me.

“Uh, no. I just got here.”

Quirin looks at the room frowning. “What’s everyone staring at If you didn’t hear me last night, this Kennedy Hill, and your Luna.”

“Yes, Alpha,” they murmur before going back to their meals.

I sigh and head over to where the food is. “This looks delicious, say to the omegas who are bringing out the food.

“Thank you, Luna.”
