Forever In The Past And Forever In The Future Chapter 115

Chapter 24

We talk with Delilah and James for another fifteen minutes or so before we say our goodbyes.As we are leaving the hospital wing, we see the doctor.

"Luna! I am so happy to see you! I take it you're feeling better?" he asks joyfully.

"Yes, sir.I am feeling more like myself.Thank you for asking," I respond gratefully, "Also, we just went to visit James.I helped him out, so you won’t need to worry about him too much.Hopefully, you can send him home soon to finish recovering."

"Well then! I will check on him right now," he looks happy at the opportunity to see the results of my healing ability.

"Oh, Doc, before you go, can you look into getting a doctor that specializes in hybrid pregnancies for James’s mate?" Bronx adds quietly.

"Yes Alpha, absolutely," he bows slightly at Bronx.

Bronx takes my hand and we head back to the apartment.

"Can we stop by the daycare and visit Codi?" I ask, trying to think of ways to distract my mind.

"Well, you’re in luck. Today is Saturday. We can go to Lenora and Milo’s apartment to visit Codi," he pulls my hand up to his face and gives it a kiss.

"Oh, thank the Goddess. That is perfect,"

I smile, knowing Lenora loves when I spend time with Codi.It gives her and Milo an opportunity to get things done around the apartment or even go on date nights.

"We have a meeting with Marco and Musu this afternoon, so you only have a few hours," Bronx reminds me.

We make our way to the fourth floor and knock on the apartment door.A flustered Lenora opens the door with Codi throwing a tantrum in her arms.Her expression turns to surprise when she sees us.

"Kas! What are you doing? I thought you would need more time to recover after yesterday?" she looks back and forth between Bronx and I.

"I am feeling much better.Bronx and I talked through some things last night.You guys can talk about it.I will take Codi," I smile, holding my arms out to take the screaming toddler.

If I didn’t know Lenora well enough, I wouldn't have seen the moment of hesitation or fleeting look of worry before she placed Codi in my arms.

Codi immediately calms down and gives me wet kisses on my cheek when I hug her.

Great.

Lenora doesn’t even trust me.

Who else is going to feel that way? James and Delilah didn’t outright say it, but they were more than happy to not have to see me for a month.

I guess I’m going to have to earn back trust from a lot of people.

Who can blame them? I still don’t completely trust myself, either.

We head inside and I take Codi to her room so Lenora and Bronx can talk about the woman named Cora and the Feral.I sit in the beanbag chair and put Codi on my lap.

We read a book about dragons eating tacos.

She helps me turn the pages and points to the colorful pictures as I read in silly voices.I feel her yawn against me as she settles in a little deeper.

"Au Ka?" she says in her sleepy little voice.

"Yes, Niece Codi?" I set the book down and cover her before I give her a kiss on the forehead.

"wan cat," she yawns again as she adjusts her little body to lean against me.

"You want a cat? I don’t know if it is a good idea for a kitty in a packhouse full of wolves, baby girl,"

I whisper while I run my fingers through her fine, dark hair.
