His Graceful Queen

The Visit

Hannah woke up early she could still scent some of Xander in the room, the smell of forest lingered in the air. She opened her eyes, and the room was illuminated by the first few rays of sun that shined through the big window. She looked around and Cammie was sitting in the chair again. Cammie noticed Hannah was awake. “Hey Cupcake, do you need anything”

Hannah just smiled, she began feeling more and more like herself. She still had a billion questions that she hadn’t gotten any answers too. Like, what does it mean that she has a wolf, and what is being a werewolf mean? just for starters. But she still felt more at ease.

“I need to” she gestured toward the bathroom, she got out of bed. Cammie came to her side and lend her an arm. Together they got to the bathroom and Hannah got to finish her business.

“Cammie, do you know if there is a place with old clothes. I would like to get some clothes on before my kids comes”

Cammie smiled, “I have been looking forward to dress you”

Hannah raised an eyebrow

“Yeah I have like a tendency to shop a lot. I love to shop, and talk. Yeah that is probably what I do most of the time” Cammie giggled.

When Hannah was back in her bed, there was a silvertray with a lot of breakfast items, pancakes, waffles, jam, bread, sliced fruits and a big glass of orange juice. Hannah sighed by the sight of the food, she thought it looked so delicious. She couldn’t help but to taste everything on the plate. It was so different than her usual oatmeal. While she was eating suddenly several dress rails, with clothes on was delivered to the room. Hannah’s eyes got big. She had never seen so many beautiful clothes at the same time. They were also all branded. She didn’t know that many, but she could see, Gucci, Chanel, Burberry, but there were so many rails, it just kept going on and on. Until the entire room was filled.

Cammie walked around excited, “I have found every piece of clothing in your size, that I think would look good on you.” She was looking like a kid in a candy store.

“Uhm, I just need 1 dress and it doesn’t really need to be expensive, I can’t afford any of these clothes, does this hospital have a box with leftover clothes?”

Cammie rolled her eyes, and began lifting up a dress at the time, looking at it, and looking at Hannah, narrowed her.

“You really don’t have to worry about the price tag, it is a gift she said” taking a really beautiful blue knitted dress with, the top part with small stones. Eyeing it, and eyeing Hannah. “this one is going to look amazing on you.” Cammie ignored every one of Hannah’s protests. Then she grabbed a box from Victoria’s secret and gave it to Hannah. Hannah opened it, and inside there was several pairs of underwear, beautiful laces. Almost so thin that it looked magical or like spiderwebs, but in the shape of hearts, and flowers. Hannah’s felt the heat rising in her cheeks as she touched the beautiful laces. Cammie didn’t seem to notice. “I know you can’t wear a proper brassiere as long as you have the bandages on, and I didn’t know your size either. So, the brassieres, might not fit but Xander told me to get you everything you need. He wasn’t completely sure of your size either, but he had a good feeling that you were an 70DD as of now. But once we get you some food every day, you are probably going to be an 80. Cammie just kept talking.

The thought of Xander paying for her new underwear almost made Hannah scream from embarrassment, and now Cammie was telling her that they had discussed her size. She closed the box from Victoria’s secret as if it had burned her skin. “I can’t wear these; don’t you have any normal panties” Hannah said.

“of course, you can, Cupcake, you can, and you will. Unless you want to go around with no underwear on” Cammie placed her hands in the sides.

“I really can’t wear anything this expensive, and I definitely don’t need anything this expensive. What on earth do I need lingerie for? I just need normal cotton panties from a cheap store”

“Are you really going to turn these away without even trying them after I have spent an entire day looking for these beautiful panties for you.” Cammie made a pouting face.

Hannah had a feeling that Cammie was used to getting her way around the boys. She sighed. “Why haven’t you bought anything normal, like white cheap ones from target” Hannah asked again. The thought of the beautiful laces on her skin made her face even more red.”

“Cotton from target!” Cammie scoffed. “Xander asked me to buy you the best there is of everything and I did so.” She eyed Hannah again. “okay, how about this, you take one pair, and change into them, and if you by the end of the day still doesn’t like them you can throw them in the garbage can and I will go to target and buy some cotton panties for you”.

“Okay” Hannah resigned; she needed a pair of clean panties. “1! Pair, and I will pay back every cent of its cost.”

Cammie smiled, there was no price tags on any of these clothes. So, Hannah wouldn’t know what the price was.

Hannah opened the box again, letting her fingers caress the beautiful laces in it, and she chose a beautiful green pair, the laces was shaped like leaves. The green color reminded her of Xander’s eyes. The string of thoughts made her flustered. Why on earth would she think about him now.

While Hannah had been deciding on what pair. Cammie had found the rest of her outfit.

“Here, take these legging and this dress.” The dress was the beautiful blue one, Cammie had been looking at earlier and a pair of black leggings as well.

She was looking at Hannah as if she was waiting for her to change in front of her.

“Uhm, could you turn around while I change” Hannah wasn’t comfortable about her own body while Cammie was standing there staring at her.

Cammie giggled and turned around. “Sure”

Hannah pulled off the old panties, and put on the new one, it almost felt like air. It was so comfortable having on. She then put on the leggings, which was really hard, since she couldn’t really bend her upper torso because of her bandages. But finally, she managed. Then she carefully took her nightgown off, she looked down at all the bandages on her upper torso and sighed at least it didn’t hurt anymore, but she couldn’t help but to think how her back would look with all the scares. She then put on the blue one. It had threequarters sleeves, it felt amazing. In the left side there was a zipper, but she couldn’t zip it up herself due to the bandages around her. “Uhmm Cammie, can you zip me up please”

Cammie turned around and gasped by the sight. “Omg, that dress looks so beautiful on you, the blue really makes your eyes look magnificent”.

Hannah just raised her eyebrow at her.

After zipping Hannah up Cammie took a huge pile of clothes and placed it in one of the closets. Then a lot of people came and removed the remaining ones.

Then Cammie decided that Hannah’s hair should be treated. She grabbed a balm spray and a big hairbrush. “I know you need a decent shower, but until Isa have said yes, for your feet and your back, you can’t take one. But, I can help with your hair for now.” Hannah just nodded, her brain was in it’s own world again.

Cammie sat down behind Hannah and began untangling Hannah’s long curly golden locks.

“Cammie, can I ask you a question?”

“Sure”

“Why do you call Xander, alpha?”

Cammie was quiet for a second, “Xander, is the boss of our pack. It is like a really big family, where we help each other. He is also the CEO of a really big company, and a lot of us are employed by him.

“Okay... but why does he help me?”

“Because you are special to him”

Hannah sighed by that reply. That’s the only response she had gotten. She couldn’t help but to fear that he wanted something in return. “is that because we are mates”

Cammie stopped, brushing her hair. “Yes” she said after some time, continuing the brushing.

“What does it mean to be mates, I mean, you guys have mentioned it several times”

“It is a bit hard to explain right now Cupcake, but it is something beautiful”

Hannah closed her eyes, just feeling the brush going through her hair. Sometimes, it was painful, but it felt nice that someone cared for her like this. When Cammie was done, she braided Hannah’s hair. “There you go cupcake, now you look a bit less like a patient.”

“Why do you keep on calling me Cupcake”

“Cammie giggled, because you are sweet and innocent like a vanilla cupcake, and your hair when you sleep look like the frosting on the top”

Hannah didn’t get to reply because someone knocked on the door and entered. It was Isa, she smiled to Hannah. “Hey there, you look great today.”

“I feel a bit more like myself”

Isa nodded. “So how is your body? Are you in pain anywhere?”

“My feet hurt when I walk on them, but not as much as yesterday. My back doesn’t hurt at all”

Isa nodded, and then she began untangling Hannah’s feet. Looking at them. “you know, you are really lucky. Because your natural heat your feet didn’t get any frostbites. They just got a lot of cuts and bruises; they are almost all healed now. In a day or two the pain should be gone. Isa used some sort of balm on her feet. “you don’t have to have them in bandages anymore, as long as you promise me. Isa paused. Promise me you will not go on them to much”

Hannah just nodded shamefully.

“Good, now let me just take a look on your back”

Isa unzipped Hannah’s dress, and began untangling the bandages, however Cammie was still in the room and Hannah didn’t want her to see, so she didn’t want to let go of the dress. Isa quickly understood what was going on. “Hey Cammie, don’t you need a cup of coffee”

“Yes, I am dying for a cup, do you need anything Hannah?”

Hannah was grateful for Isa’s fast perception of the situation, “no thank you” Cammie left the room, and Hannah let go of the dress so she could remove the rest of the bandages.

Hannah let out a loud sigh when the rest of it was removed.

Cammie moved her cool fingers around on the back. “It is almost healed. There are a few of the deeper wounds that still has a crust, but it should be gone during the next couple of days. I will balm your back now.” Isa began applying the balm to Hannah’s back, it felt cool against her skin.

“Thank you, do you know when I can take a proper shower again?”

“You can take one tonight if you get someone to apply a new layer of balm to your back, but you don’t need the bandages anymore, However you are not allowed to put on anything that can hurt your back. No brasseries, no hooks, locks, zippers. Nothing of metal, nothing that can scrape it. Only soft materials. Do you understand.”

Hannah just nodded and sighed while Isa applied the balm to the rest of her back. They waited a few minutes, until her skin had dried.

“Can I ask you a question Hannah?”

“Yes”

“Do you know anything about your heritage? I was looking for a medical journal to find your blood type when I was operating on you but couldn’t find anything?”

“No, I don’t know anything. I only know about the orphanage; I have been there all my life as far as I can remember” Hannah replied.

Isa didn’t reply, but just touched Hannah’s back again. When the skin was dry again, she helped Hannah her dress back on. Hannah looked down, her boobs looked so big, hiding them wasn’t really an option and she couldn’t put on a bra, she sighed. At least this dress was a tight fit around them, so they weren’t everywhere.

At that moment Cammie came back, “Look what I found”

And in came Luke, Toby and Christian, and all her kids. The room suddenly got filled with children. Hannah smiled and was about to cry when she saw them all entering. Cammie, Luke and Christian stayed, but they didn’t interfere. They just observed the situation. All the little ones ran to her bed. she hugged every one of them and suddenly her bed was filled with small kids. She sat and cuddled with them. They all looked healthy, clean and happy. They all wanted to tell her what they had been doing, and a lot of them brought drawings as a gift to her. She had never seen them this happy before.

They all told her about the new house, and all the new food.

“… We get meat every day and vegetables”

“… I am in school, and I have gotten new friends”

“… The teacher is really nice; she sings every day”

“…I have gotten a princess dress”

“…no one yells at us anymore”

Hannah was so happy to see them all that she almost felt overwhelmed. She tried to make them talk one at a time, but they were all so happy. They made her laugh with all their little anecdotes.

After 2 hours of constant talk, it was getting late in the afternoon and she knew some of them needed to get home soon.

“Let me tell you all a story,” and they all cuddled up in the room, she had maybe 10 kids in the bed, the rest sat on the floor next to her bed. She told a story about a princess, that got saved by a prince. For some reason the prince in her story had a resemblance with Xander in her mind, she couldn’t help but smile by the thought. When she was done with the story she said; Even if you aren’t a princess, or a prince the world always needs you.

They sat a bit more and talked, some of the smaller ones began napping. Louise came and sat down next to her.

“Are you really okay?” Louise asked with a worried frown.

“Yes, I am” Hannah told her then she asked” Is everything as good as I hear, are you being treated right”

Louise smiled, “Yeah, all the ladies treat us well. I have even begun going to school, since I don’t have to take care of the little ones anymore, all of us big troops have begun going to school, not of all likes it though”, she winked and elbowed Toby in the side, “but we are all going. We have really missed you”, Louise let a tear down her chin. “I was so scared when you were taken away from us. I am so glad Xander and the others found you.”

“Do you know when you are coming home?” One of the others asked Hannah.

“No kiddo, I don’t”, she hugged him.

“Okay guys, it is late, and we need to get you all home. You got homework to do. “

A loud symphony of complaining noises was heard and Hannah giggled, her kids finally sounded like normal ones.

“Okay” Hannah said, “You need to listen to the grownups but first gather around me”

All the kids gathered around her bed, holding their hands as if it was a prayer circle. Christian Luke and Cammie all was a bit surprised, but no one said anything, eager to see what was going to happen.

“The world needs you; your smile will brighten the day of a lonely one, your voice will help a lost one and you are worth everything. If you don’t get treated right don’t give up. We all have our purpose in this world and so do you. Always be kind and gentle, and never give up”

While she was saying it, she could feel something different, she didn’t know exactly what, but there was a different feeling in her body. She finished saying her beloved mantra and then she kissed each of them on the forehead before they left her hospital room, even Cammie left the room, letting her be on her own for the first time that day.
