Mm, addressed me formally even though I never made her do that.
Parker sighed.
Protocol is all.
Full formalities were attended by her, I did feel that.
Shannon stated its good to see her, know she is doing well, living her life as she chooses to and is happy as well.
Parker commented.
Though honestly, he’d thought she would have more of a reaction to seeing him for the first time in such a long time.
He’d been hoping that there was still some sort of connection to her, that made her at least curious about him or the pack she’d once been the Luna of.
Didn’t appear to at all.
He saw her come trotting down the stairs almost an hour later, he was still sitting there in the foyer.
She headed on passed him with a simple nod, and he figured she was heading back to the hospital, likely off to deliver another pup.
Then she hesitated and stopped walking, looked right at him, he stood Yes, Belladonna? he asked, knew she had a question for him.
How’s Annette doing? she asked.
He blinked, wasn’t expecting her to ask that, but answered her Shes fine, misses you still.
Asked about a year ago, if Id found you.
He watched as she frowned right at him Why would you be looking for me? she asked right back.
Annette wants you to come back to the pack, work with her once more.
Still states you’re the best OBG / YN shes ever known.
He watched her smile now and actually felt his heart flutter at the sight of it.
He had to shake it off, it had not been something he’d seen often during their mate bond.
Her directing a full blown smile like that at him, kind of took him for six.
Tell her thanks, are the deliveries going well in your pack? she asked him.
Hmm, its not like when you were there … No Luna Calm combined with your medical skills.
If you wanted to intern for a few months or a year … No, thank you.
she cut him off.
That is not appropriate at all, she stated as her eyes moved to his neck and the filigree she would see there.
He understood what she meant, because Carina was there as his Mate and Luna.
He couldn’t really blame her.
But it made him curious as to if Carina wasn’t there, would she intern or move back to his pack.
Tell her I said hi, Belladonna nodded to him and then turned and walked on once more.
He watched her go and frowned a little.
Only concerned herself with births, and Annette didn’t ask after the pack she’d once been attached to.
Been the Luna of.
Alpha Parker is there an issue? it was Alpha Aston.
No, it appears not.
She’s happy, I see.
That is all that matters to me.
I never knew where she went after leaving the pack,he commented and sat himself back down.
Left the pack? Aston frowned at him.
Yes, when I found my Goddess Gifted.
Hmm, she was your chosen mate … and you just discarded her after choosing her, a bit callous.
Aston muttered.
It seems that way.
But we were not … traditionally chosen mates, a mating alliance to stop war is all, had a very detailed mating alliance, that clearly stated I was to reject her when I came across my Goddess Gifted, is all.
We don’t hate each other, Aston.
He told the man.
I can see that.
Aston nodded Its curious to me.
Whats curious? Parked asked.
Your interaction is all.
Aston shrugged, and stated you didn’t know where she was.
I did not.
If I recall correctly, she did an interview once and stated she worked at a university hospital, but she never said which one.
Aston raised an eyebrow at him but said nothing, turned his attention to another Alpha that was sitting around, who would be attending his mating ball later this evening.
There were several of them all sitting around waiting for that ball to start.
He didn’t see her at the mating ball or the next morning when he was checking his wolves’ status, not even as he drove away from the packhouse.
She had no interest at all in seeing him again or catching up, not with him or his unit, and they did all actually get along with Belladonna, liked her, and she’d smiled at them all the time.
He had told Alpha Aston and his Luna, Mala, that he’d like them to say goodbye to her for him, and that he hoped to see her still well and happy the next time he was there inside the pack.
That he also hoped Aston would see to bringing some of his own wolves over to Lustrous Moon for a mating ball.
He would send an invitation.
They’d both nodded at him and seen him off, and it was then a long drive back to his pack.
Annette will be happy to hear Bellas doing well.
But annoyed to know she wont come back even for an internship.
Kane murmured.
Mm, Belladonna was right though, it probably is not at all appropriate, I doubt Carina would handle it or be happy about it, likely veto it.
Parker stated as he looked out the window.
