The next day, Dad got in touch with one of our divisions to see if there was a sensor or something to detect and protect people from a gas attack. He did in fact find out that there are sensors available that can detect gas attacks. We didn’t hesitate, we ordered enough for our borders and around the important areas of the pack-pack house, hospital, school, recreation center, etc..
I didn’t get out of bed until after lunch. My stomach was still queasy and I was so tired. Both Councils wanted to talk with me about my recent kidnapping. I was not feeling up to it. My stomach was not cooperating and every time I got up to use the restroom, I became dizzy. Talking to the Councils today was a no-go.
Alpha King Friedrich and the European Council were fine with not talking with me today. They were more than willing to give me a day of rest. The U. S. Council, more specifically, Elders Lee and Brown, wanted to talk with me today, not tomorrow. Alpha King Matthew told them they would have to wait until I felt better since I was still getting over silver poisoning. They reluctantly agreed. How big of them to agree?
Uncle Vladimir wasn’t allowing anyone to visit me today. He allowed no visitors to enter the house that was not family, not even Alpha King Matthew and Alpha Richard were allowed to check on me. They had to call either Anthony or my Dad for an update-imagine that. They were turned away by a Duke or rather a very bossy and protective Uncle.
Anthony told me all about how he turned people away at the door. I couldn’t believe it. My Dad chuckled at how hilarious it all was when he turned Alpha King Matthew away. I just laughed.
Thankfully, the rest of the day was restful for me and I was able to take naps when I needed them. Anthony took very good care of me-we cuddled and snuggled. No hanky panky took place, but boy oh boy did I enjoy his arms around me.
The next day, I surprised everyone by not waking up until around 10:30 AM. Uncle Vladimir had to remind the U. S. Council that Dr. Adams said my body is still healing and I would need extra sleep to recover. The European Council had no problem with me getting extra sleep to regain my strength. Go figure.
By the afternoon, my queasiness had subsided enough that I could hold food down again. I considered it a small victory. Mom, of course, made me some of her famous Chicken Noodle Soup. I don’t know what is in that soup but it always makes me feel better. That and drinking Ginger Ale with crackers along with it.
By dinner time, Uncle Vladimir announced to both Councils that I would be available to receive visitors the next day but not until the afternoon. He wanted to make it perfectly clear that I was still recovering from silver poisoning and that I was not to be stressed out or overwhelmed by anything or anyone. Thank you Uncle Vladimir for having my back.
At dinner, Dad also informed us that the sensors we ordered were being delivered tomorrow morning and being installed by our staff when they arrived. Also, he stated that we were using an ‘old-fashioned’ model sensor until the new ones were delivered. So, I was not to worry about anything. Thank you Dad.
I slept better knowing that if we were attacked using gas again, we would be able to defend ourselves. I awoke to Anthony lovingly caressing my arms and gently kissing my neck and cheeks. What a glorious way to wake up. I smiled up at my mate and pulled him down into a smoldering, passionate kiss.
‘Good morning my love. Thank you for waking me up so gently and lovingly,’ I purred as we parted from our hot, smoldering kiss.
‘You’re welcome, my love. I thought I would wake you gently this morning. I wanted you to have an easy morning since you will have to meet with both Councils this afternoon. How are you feeling today my love? How’s the baby this morning?’ cooed Anthony in my ear after he kissed my earlobe gently on his way down to my mark.
Oh, that man can kiss. ‘I’m feeling okay. The baby is okay, too. I’m actually hungry this morning which might make my Mom very happy this morning. How about you? How are you feeling today my love’ I asked him after I returned his kisses.
‘Mm-mmm, I’m enjoying kissing you right now. But I’m feeling pretty good. I’m happy that you have an appetite today. Come on, let’s get you dressed so I can carry you downstairs for some food. What do you say? Hmm?’ cooed Anthony as he nuzzled in the crook of my neck.
‘I could go for that. I want more cuddling today. Can we put this on our agenda today?’ I begged him with my sad puppy dog eyes look.
‘I think we can pencil that in. Just say the word and I’ll have you back in bed in a flash,’ chuckled Anthony as he picked me up and carried me into the bathroom for a shower.
‘Morning Mom and Dad. How are you doing today? Anthony and I are going to take a shower and then we’ll be down for breakfast. I’m hungry this morning. I’m actually feeling better today,’ I explained to them in our family link.
‘Honey, that’s great news. What do you want for breakfast? I’ll make it for you?’ inquired my Mom with happiness in her voice.
‘Scrambled eggs and pancakes, but no meat items for me. I don’t think I can handle bacon or sausage right now. Okay?’ I replied to her.
‘You got it. We’ll be there shortly. Love you, baby girl,’ exclaimed my Mom.
‘Love you too Mom and Dad. See you shortly,’ I ended the link as Anthony picked me up and placed me in the shower.
“Are you done talking with your Mom?” chuckled Anthony as he placed me in the shower.
“How’d you know I was talking with Mom and not Dad?” I asked him while laughing.
“Easy because your Dad was talking to me in the family link. He said he couldn’t get a word in your conversation,” chuckled Anthony.
“Ha, ha. Very funny. Mom is just excited that I’m feeling better. She wanted to know what I wanted for breakfast. What did Dad want?” I asked him.
“He wanted to know what you needed this morning. Also, if he needed to stop and pick anything up before coming over here this morning,” explained Anthony.
“And what did you tell him?” I asked him point blank.
“I told him we were a little short on chocolate ice cream. Since you were going to be meeting with both Councils today, we were going to need someone to pick some up at the store or have it delivered,” insisted Anthony as he started to wash my hair.
“Thank you for thinking about that. Yes, I just might need some chocolate ice cream. You never know when dealing with either Council. I don’t even know what they want to talk to me about. I guess I’ll find out when they get here,” I uttered as I took the washcloth and began to get it full of soap.
We took our showers but didn’t have our sexy time simply because I wasn’t up to it today. I just didn’t have the umph for it-I was still feeling tired and low on energy. Speaking of energy, I need to take my vitamins. I think I forgot to take them yesterday or did I take them and I threw them up? I don’t remember. Anyway, I may have to make another trip to the hospital to get my numbers checked. Yikes, now I’m saying I need to go-just listen to me. What has become of the strong independent she-wolf I was? I know she is now a fully mated she-wolf who is now pregnant and has to be extremely careful not to lose the remaining baby.
Enough said. My energy level started dropping when I started moving around. Just like my head started to hurt when I started moving around. If my head continues to feel like this, I will make a trip to the hospital-no questions asked. I will not pass go. I will not collect $200. I will simply do what is required to protect my baby. Enough said.
The day was shaping up to be a good day too. I won’t let it go to Hell just because-it WILL BE A GOOD DAY TODAY!!! NO IFS AND/OR BUTS ABOUT IT!
