Chapter 24: Nate POV After our disastrous dinner I spent three hours comforting Willa in our bedroom. She was so upset that she was having trouble breathing. Robin examined her twice and even did an ultrasound. "Mother and pup are okay, but this stress is not good for her body," Robin mind-linked to me. I sighed in frustration. Why did this have to happen? Why couldn't that stubborn man be more tactful and compassionate? Why couldn't he share his concerns with me in private? Instead he insulted us and threatened my family. He was starting a war that he must know he could not win. All for what? Fear of the unknown? I had my own concerns about Willa's health but I also kept a close watchful eye and so did the doctor and the whole pack. The next day my brother came to see me with concerns.
