Chapter 149
Ebony’s POV
"Thank you so much for coming today, Luna Ebony. The children were glad to see you land for all the gifts you brought," One of the Children’s Doctors said.
"I was happy to see them too." They are so sweet. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to call," I replied. I had spent the entire day at the Silvermoon Children’s Hospital.
"Thank you so much, Luna. If we need anything, I promise to call you."
Once I was outside, I was surprised to see Keith standing by his car, waiting for me. "Keith," I said and ran up to him and jumped into his arms, causing him to laugh.
"I missed you too, My Love. Did you have a great time?"
"Yes, I did. The pups were so sweet," I said. Keith was looking deep into my eyes. I could tell he was thinking about something, but I didn’t know what. It was like he was blocking me from his thoughts.
"What’s wrong?" I asked
"Nothing, let’s get out of here," Keith said and opened the passenger side door for me.
"Are you worried about our trip to Blue Moon Pack tomorrow? You seem to be thinking about something, and it seems you don’t want me to know what it is because you keep blocking me from your emotions," I said after a few minutes of silence.
"I’m sorry, My Love. I don’t want to worry you about anything. I am fine, just still on edge from yesterday," Keith said
"I understand, but we won. So there is nothing to worry about," I replied with a smile. Keith smiled back at me and held my hand while he drove us back to the Packhouse. The ride back to the Packhouse was silent. I could still see that Keith was worried about something but was trying to keep it away from me. I was beginning to get upset.
When we arrived at the Packhouse, I couldn’t take it anymore. I needed him to tell me what was wrong. "Keith." I grabbed his hand before he could get out of the car. He looked at me, waiting for me to speak. "What is going on? I know you are worried about something, and I want to know what it is," I said.
Keith looked at me for a moment, and I knew he was trying to figure out if he should tell me or not. "We are not leaving this car until you tell me what’s up," I added. Keith let out a sigh and then spoke. "There is something important I need to tell you," Keith said, and then there was a knock on the car window.
I looked over and saw Nancy standing by my window.
"Hey, You still going with me to check on Christy?" Nancy asked as I got out of the car. Christy was my age and ended up getting pregnant by her Mate Josh. Josh was one of the Pack Warriors and turned eighteen three months ago. Christy’s parents don’t like that she found her Mate early and were mad when she moved in with him. So I told her I would go with her when she told her parents about the pregnancy.
"Yes, let me go change, and I will be ready to go in a minute," I replied
"Okay," Nancy said, and Keith and I went to our floor.
"How long do you think you are going to be?" Keith asked as he wrapped his arms around me while I finished getting ready
"Maybe a few hours. I am not sure," I replied
"Well, try not to be all day. I have hardly seen you today," Keith said, and then he kissed me softly.
"I promise I will come right back here once Christy is done talking to her parents."
"You sure you don’t want me to come?" Keith asked
"NO. I don’t want to make Christy more nervous than she already is. I will be home soon. All yeah, What was so important you needed to tell me?" I asked, remembering he told me he had something important he needed to tell me in the car.
"We can talk about it later. My mom is waiting for you, and I am sure she will be up here soon if you don’t go down there,’ KEith said, pecking my cheek.
"Yeah, you are probably right. I will be back later," I replied and kissed him softly.
"I love you," He said
"I love you too."
"That went better than I thought it would," Nancy said as we left Chrity’s parents’ house.
"Yes, it did," I replied. When Chrity and Josh told Christy’s Parents about the baby, they surprised me by congratulating them and also seemed happy to become grandparents.
"You want to get something to eat before we return to the Packhouse?" Nancy asked
"I told Keith I would come right home after we are done," I replied
"Oh, it won’t take long. I am starving."
"Okay, I guess I am hungry," I replied, and she drove us to get something to eat.
"Luna Ebony, How are you doing? I am happy everything ended well yesterday," Tia said as she walked up to Nancy and me.
"Hello, Tia. I am doing good. I didn’t know you were still on Pack Territory," I replied
"I was visiting Abby and decided to get some food."
"I am going to get us a table," Nancy said
"Okay, I will be there in a minute," I replied, and Nancy went to find a table for us.
"I wanted to ask you if you would like me to keep training you. There is still a lot you need to learn," Tia asked.
"Yeah, that sounds great. I will tell Keith," I replied
"Why would you tell him? He should want you to get stronger," Tia asked.
"He does. We just tell each other everything," I replied
"Oh, that’s good. The Alpha didn’t seem happy you were getting stronger the last time we trained. I guess I was wrong," Aby said
"He did?’ I asked, shocked.
"Yeah, but I am sure it’s just me. When would you like to train next?"
"How about this weekend? We have a busy next few days," I replied
"Okay, well, I better get going. I will see you this weekend."
"Bye," I replied and walked to the table where Nancy was sitting.
"You two seem to be getting close. Isn’t that Abby’s friend? The one that trained you," Nancy asked
"Yes, she asked if I wanted her to keep training me, and I told her yes," I said
"Just be careful around her. Something about her seems off to me."
"Really. She is really nice," I replied
"I guess. Just watch her. You don’t know her that well," Nancy said
"Okay, I will."
