How would she feel if the roles were reversed. I understand her concerns, especially

with the pups, but it’s as though she doesn’t trust me as her Beta. So, with a heavy

heart, I informed her that I would be taking a leave of absence from my duties. Of

course, it doesn’t go over too well and the next thing I know, I have a very angry Queen

at our doorstep.

“What the f*ck do you mean, you are taking a leave of absence? I need you more now
