“Please come this way.” She orders kindly.
I stand up and follow her to a room in the back area, Tyler followed behind us. She opens the wood door and walked in. I automatically jumped up onto the examination table, and Tyler sat in one of the extra chairs.
“So how are you feeling?” She turns to me on her spinny chair.
“Kind of nervous.” I honestly tell her.
What if something’s wrong? Other then me making Lycan babies. What if it’s ruining my body, I mean it hurt pretty bad.
“Well, I have quite a bit of information from the tests I took to give you.”
I nodded, this is what I wanted, to hear all the perks, all the consequences.
“Okay, so to start off your ovaries are producing the egg cells of the Lycan species. Since your body was originally made to produce werewolf egg cells, for the time being, you will experience pain. But after time the pain will eventually fade away.” Dr. Kent explains.
She turns to her desk and pulls out a bottle of small salmon colored pills, the same ones that she gave me before.
“I prescribed you for heavy duty pain killers, only take them when you’re experiencing pain.”
She handed Tyler the container of pills and turned back to me.
Her face turned serious and a little apologetic.
“There is a permanent consequence with your condition.”
I knew that I wouldn’t get away with temporary pain, I’m not that lucky. Part of me wants to cover my ears and yell ‘la la la’.
“Conceiving a child is… unlikely, but still possible. It’s a 70% chance of miscarriage and a 30% chance of a smooth pregnancy.”
I let out a whimper, what Luna can’t have children. I’ve ruined Tyler’s pack, who will take over as Alpha after him! I’ll never have a family. This is just all too much…
I feel Tyler’s arm wrap around my waist and I can’t help but lean into him. I don’t want to keep having to say I’m sorry.
I rushed down the steps and speed walked into the kitchen. I swiftly grabbed an apple and Tyler’s car keys.
“In a hurry?” Katy skips on the clean white tile.
“Ya, I called the dance studio and asked if I could use one of the practice rooms before the classes start.” I bit the sweet red fruit.
Yesterday I called the studio and asked if I could borrow a room while there were no classes. The doctor said I could use a distraction and dancing seems to take away my stress.
Katy’s eyes traveled to my hand and her eyes widened. “Tyler let you use his baby!” She whisper-yelled.
“No… so don’t tell him, he’s working in his office for the whole day so he won’t find out.” I shrug.
Katy started to chuckle. “Okay, just don’t hurt his baby.” She emphasizes baby.
I raise an eyebrow at her then check the time on my phone. “I’ll be back in two hours”
I bit my apple again and walked out the front door, I pulled out the car keys and clicked the unlock button. “His baby, it’s a car,” I mutter.
I climbed in the front seat and started the engine, my foot pushed down on the pedal and the car was off.
I drove down the main road until I came to the small shopping center with the dance studio. I parked the car and made my way to the front doors. I walked in and went straight to the front desk with the cranky old lady.
“Hi, ma’am I called yesterday about using a practice room.”
She looked up at me and sighed. “Katy isn’t with you right?”
“No…”
“Okay, then you can go on back, the first class starts at four.” She pointed her finger down the long hallway.
I smiled and made my way to the same practice room I was in with Katy. I took my phone out and connected it to the wireless speakers in the room. I set my songs to shuffle and just messed around. As I danced I let my thoughts run free.
Suddenly I spun to the door and there was a group of girls about my age standing watching me. I stopped immediately.
“They told me this room was open till four,” I explained.
“Oh no, we aren’t using this room we’re next door. We saw you dancing and wanted to watch, your amazing.” The girl in the middle of the group gushed.
“Well thanks, I’m Annalee but I go by Anna.”
“We know who you are, we watched your routine to You and Me by Disclosure for an example in class.”
They watched my routine… as an example. People really think I’m that good? I giant smile stretched across my face, this really made my day.
“Could you maybe do it for us?” A girl in the back squeaks.
