"Trouble?" Beta Jean and Delta Francis at the same time. Luna River only nodded at them, truly they were in trouble how could they just stand up and leave Alpha Rowan gawking at the books on the shelves in the office?
"And you said you as you said us? Why not you, it is not like you didn't leave your seat?" Delta Francis asked.
"Oh, seriously? You are asking that, by the goddess, has everyone lost their minds already? I am the Luna, I can do whatever." Luna River said.
"Uh?" Both Beta Jean and Delta Francis uttered at the same time.
"So, why did you guys follow me?" Luna River asked and turned to look outside the window.
"Why did you stand?" Beta Jean and Delta Francis asked each other at the same time.
"Oh, I followed you." They answered at the same time. Luna River shook her head as she thought of what she was going to do.
It was a hard decision and she could clearly see that there was no one to help her. She turned and went back to the seat. She sat down and placed her face on top of the desk, she didn't want to look at Beta Jean and Delta Francis who had again followed her after she came back to take a seat.
"Okay, you guys need to stop doing that." Luna River said once she stood again and the beta and delta followed her. Beta Jean answered, "we just can't help it."
Luna River understood and went back to the window. She didn't have to ask them to seat, it was just like when someone started pacing and if they don't stop and you are sitting you would be very much irritated and would love to pace with them instead of sitting down.
She opened the window, they might as well get some fresh air.
"Oh, we are doomed. The sun is up!" Luna River said and she didn't know that Lisa said the same thing to her friend Rose. They were definitely doomed.
On a day like this the previous year, the pack would have been happy, welcoming their kids who had transformed and some who were lucky to get their mates among their friends would be happy calling each other 'mate' to feel the sound of that rolling in their tongues.
But now, it was something else.
Luna River who hated pacing began pacing. She looked at the beta and the delta and asked them if they needed to pace too or if they were going to seat and watch her or whatever, she needed to pace or she was going to go crazy.
They said no and stood next to the window to give Luna River a space to pace on.
If they had agreed how would that have been? Three people pacing in an office? It would have been a very funny scene to watch.
Luna River walked to the window again and looked at the sun. "Is it on its full speed?" Luna River asked the werewolves in the room who looked at her and then faster back to the window thinking maybe the luna meant Cassie's wolf and when they saw nothing, they turned at Luna River and asked, "what?"
Luna River pointed and said to them, "the sun, don't you see, oh please sun, go away."
They nodded, and Delta Jean asked Luna River to take a seat, and that way she would think faster, after they sat, Delta Francis, said, "Luna, I have to go. Would you excuse me for a minute, I need to go check on my son."
Luna River nodded and held her hand up for him to wait for a moment, she tried to listen in the hope that there would be a miracle and there would be the sound of the bones breaking and all that, but nothing.
"Go at the window and try to listen if you can hear Cassie wolf's howls." Luna River addressed the beta and turned back at Delta Francis, she said to him, "it is okay." How has she forgotten that his son was transforming that previous night?
Delta Francis left the office and arriving outside he sprinted in the direction of his son's transformation room.
"Nothing." Beta Jean said and walked back to the seat he had been sitting earlier and took a sit.
He then stood up and walked to the shelves and began checking the books there. Luna River asked, "what are you doing?"
"I am looking for a book, maybe there is something here that can help us."
"Help us in what? Get Rowan here or my baby?'
"I know it is stupid but maybe someone had written about this. Let me look." Beta Jean said and Luna River could hear the desperation in his tone. She nodded and told him, "go ahead, Jean." One smiled at her and Beta Jean turned at the books in front of him.
Where was he going to start and what?
He got a book and opened it, for a minute a silence passed and Luna River stood up and walked to where the beta was, she thought he had found something in the book he was holding because he was immersed in it.
Luna River looked at the book over Beta Jean's shoulder and what she saw made her laugh. They had a hard situation at hand but what Beta Jean had at hand was something that won't be passed without laughing.
"Baby weaning?" She read, Beta Jean, sighed, and looked down. It was kinda interesting.
"Hey, we might as well learn if you breastfed that kid of yours with gold or something. A year earlier, seriously?" Beta Jean said and when Luna River looked at him as if wondering if he had gone mad, he placed his hands on top of his head.
Luna River placed the book back on the shelves, she knew Beta Jean just wanted something to do, she knew there was no way they would have gotten a book on the shelves that talked about what was going on.
They walked again back to their seats and sat down.
Luna River and Beta Jean were stalling and they both knew that.
