The Wolf In Me

Part 1 Library

Jake's POV

Frustration was kicking in, knowing that I still couldn't manage to move out of my bed. My eyes were full of worry for my Alpha as he seemed unresponsive to every medication they tried on him. Mei, on the other hand, was with child and all of this was not good for her.

"I trust the witches are doing their best. They helped us before. We owe them big time," I asserted, looking down at the sheets.

I turned my gaze at Mei, that had her eyes all red out of all the crying. I never saw her like this and it pained me, not knowing what I can do to comfort her. She was my best friend and Luna, and she helped me find a place to live when I was alone and abandoned. Our eyes turned towards Luka as we could have sworn we saw a sign of movement coming from him.

"Luka?!" She mumbled, "hey," she shook him for a second, hoping he was getting his senses back.

"I saw him too," I said, now hopeful that he moves again.

His fingers started to shift slightly and his head turned towards Mei.

"Luka. Hey, Luka, Lulu, wake up, please," she begged, holding a hand over his chest.

His eyes opened slowly but he looked confused.

"Ohh, thank the goddess. You were out for days. Luka."

She moved her hand over his forehead gently caressing him as tears rolled down her face. I heard him grumble beneath his breath, trying to find his fruity voice back.

"Shh, that's ok. One step at a time." She whispered, trying to calm him down.

"My goddess. Oh, what a relief. Thank you," I said raising my head towards the ceiling.

Mei's pov

My husband to be seemed to be making some improvement, at least for now. He could not form a word, let alone a whole conversation, but his eyes opened and I could see a glimpse of fear hovering around him. I could also scent it. Anger was getting the best of me, but I was still in control for now. I didn't want to shift in wolf form, knowing that I was already half term pregnant. I could hear my wolf growl as it wanted to be released.

I mean, come on. We would have been better off dying than living with just scraps of food or worse, with a rumbling belly and no shelter over your head. Don't you think?" I confided in
