His Mate's Sister

Chapter 9-Things Blow-up

"How the hell did that son of a b***h get over our border undetected?" Fred yelled, we're in father's office and my father showed him the report that revealed who Amy's attacker was. "How did nobody sense him?" Fred was pissed, the report showed that the attacker was an ex-pack member who was expelled from the pack due to assault.

"I wish I had the answers right now, but I have people looking into it" my father told him.

"Lukas won't get away with this, I promise" I told him, he looked at me then left the office slamming the door behind him.

Lukas Hartman and Fed were best friends growing up, when they were Freshmans in high school Lukas developed an obsession with Sheila. Then came Fred's 18th birthday and it was discovered that Sheila was Fred's mate, that didn't sit right with Lukas. Two nights later Lukas cornered Sheila after work and when she rejected his advances he attacked her and tried to rape her, she was able to wound him and escape to our house where she informed Fred and my father. Lukas was imprisoned and then expelled, Fred wanted to kill him but my father explained that being expelled from a pack is a fate worse than death. I know that Fred isn't going to let him get away this time, he's going to kill him.

Knock knock "Amy?" I called out to her after knocking on her door. "Are you okay?" I put my ear to the door but didn't hear anything, I tried the knob then opened the door. I take a peek in but didn't see her, then I heard a puking noise coming from her bathroom. I walk over to the bathroom door and knock, "Amy?" I try the knob but it's locked. "Are you okay?" I call out to her, I hear the toilet flush then water running. I hear the water turn off then the door opens.

"I'm okay" she looks at me but then turns around and runs back to the toilet and throws up again, I run to her side and hold her hair for her.

"You are not okay" I tell her, "I'm calling the doctor" I tell her as she flushes the toilet again. She rinses her mouth out then I help her to her bed. I tuck her in then run downstairs to the kitchen, I grab some crackers and gingerale then run them up to her.

"Thanks" she said taking the crackers, I placed the gingerale on her side table.

"How long have you been sick?" I ask her.

"It started before we left Arizona" she told me.

"Okay" I nod, "I'm going to go call Dr. Miller" I told her leaving her to rest. I went back downstairs and headed to the home office, I pulled out the address book and looked up the phone number for the doctor. I called the doctor's office and made an appointment for Amy on Monday morning, I called mom but it went to voicemail so I left her a message. They decided to drive back instead of flying cause they wanted to site see, she'll check her messages later I'm sure.

"I'm going into the bakery for a couple hours" Lori walks into the office as I put the address book back in the middle desk drawer.

"Okay" I said as i got up from the desk.

"Are you okay?" she looks at me concerned.

"Amy's sick" I told her.

"What do you mean she's sick" she furrowed her brow at me.

"I found her throwing up in her bathroom this morning" I told her, "she said she's been sick since before she came home" I looked at her furrowing my brow this time. We made our way into the living room and sat down on the couch. 

"s**t" Lori  said rubbing her face with her hands.

"I made her an appointment with Dr. Miller on Monday" I told her.

"This isn't happening"  she got up off the couch and started pacing.

"Lori calm down" I told her demandingly, "now is not the time to panic" I stood up and grabbed her by her shoulders. "Let's wait an see what the doctor says" I looked her in the eyes.

"You're right, I'm sorry" she takes a few deep breaths and sits back down.

"Amy;s going to need us so we need to be strong for her and support her with what ever she decides to do" I calmly tell her. "Now you go to work and I'm going to be here if she needs anything" she nods then leaves the house.

I flew back to Boston after this mornings meeting in my dad's office, I hated to leave with Fred still upset but I need to get back. I walk into my dorm room and toss my bag on my bed, I wish I could of stayed but my dad reassured me that he and the pack had the situation under control. He also told me I needed to concentrate on school, I know he's right, I wouldn't do anybody any good if I failed school. I walk over to my bed and plop down on it, just as I laid my head down on my pillow I felt my pocket vibrate. "Hello" I answer my phone after pulling it out of my pocket.

"Hey" the most addictive and calming voice replied. :do you have time to talk?" she sheepishly asked.

"Is everything okay?" I ask her.

"I'm not sure" she sounded stressed.

"Emily, what's going on?" I sit up in bed. "Is it Amy? Your parents? Lori?" I'm getting concerned now.

"It's Amy" she whimpers, "I think she's pregnant" she starts to sob. I froze, I couldn't form any words, I would hear Alec howling inside my head. I felt the walls closing in on me, my blood was boiling I wanted to tear everything apart. "Frank?" Emily's voice brought me out of my head. "Are you still there?".

"I'm here" I told her. "When will you find out?" I asked her.

"She has an appointment with Dr. Miller on Monday" she told me.

"I want you to call me after with the results" I told her.

"Okay" she said. "Frank, as a friend, what should she do?' I was shocked at the question.

"Speaking as a friend, I don't know" I told her, I didn't know what she should do. She was carrying a wolf pup, Lukas's pup, but it was an innocent so I didn't know what to say. She could have it and my father would find it a good home in another pack, but what if she wanted to abort it. Not sure how the pack would react to that, but then there's the chance she would want to keep it and raise it herself. I need to let my father know as soon as the results come in.

"I'm so scared for her" she sobbed.

"I know I am too" I told her. "What ever happens I'm here for you and Amy" I told her. "You're my family and I will always take care of you" I said lovingly.

"Thanks Frank, I really needed to hear that" she said, I could almost hear a smile.

"Let me know if you need anything" I tell her.

"I will" she said then hung up the phone. I put the phone down on my bed next to me, I leaned forward and placed my elbows on my knees and intertwined my fingers behind my neck. I took a deep breath then sat up straight, I picked my phone back up and phoned my father.

"Hello" came my father's husky voice.

"Dad, are you alone?' I ask him.

"Yes" he replied. "Why?" he asked me.

"We have a problem and I don't want Fred to know about it yet" I tell him.

"What kind of problem?" he asked concerned.

"It's Amy" I tell him then I told him what Emily told me.

"That's a problem" he confirmed, "I'll talk with Dr. Miller so she knows the importance of the situation" he told me. Dr. Rebecca Miller is not only the town's doctor but also the pack's doctor, her father was the doctor before he retired and Rebecca took over. She comes from a long line of pack doctors, her mate died in a rogue attack when she was in medical school 30 years ago. She's set to retire when I graduate in a couple years then I'll be the new doctor for both the pack and town.

"Okay" I replied. "Emily's going to call me when they get the results" I told him.

"Good" he replied. "Keep me updated and I'll do the same" he said before hanging up. 

I put my phone on the desk and laid down, I covered my face with my hands and sighed. "This is going to be a long month" I thought to myself.
