I watched as we were driving away to go park 97

JAMES: we allow them to leave early. She is still being punished, dad has her sleeping in the cells, every night until Wednesday, and he has her cleaning them, I just changed it to her having to clean the worst of the cells, such as the
torture cells.” I tell her. “Does she know that Trever is my mate?” She asked. I don’t know whether she knows or not, she
asked me if I knew who his mate was, and I lied to her, I said no, I just knew that she was underage, and she was
suspicious, of it being you or Mackie, and she was not happy about it.” I tell her. “Why are you telling me, it’s not like I
have a say in what happens to her, I am just surprised that father actually is punishing her.” She state emotionlessly. I am
at a loss. I don’t know what to say to her, or how to comfort her, for what we put her through over the years. I can’t really
stick up for dad because he made his own choice to not ask her, and I made mine to not take responsibility, so now we
both have to answer for our mistakes, and that’s if she’ll even let us. “I can’t speak to that, and I am sorry for the shit we
put you through Kes, I really am, and I know I can’t take it back, but I can do better going forward.” I tell her. “You had
better, or you won’t have the pack, understand I am not threating you, but if Uncle Carson doesn’t like what he sees he
will take it back.” She says. I nod, understanding the truth of her words. I watch as I see her eyes glaze over. “Is there
trouble?” I asked her. “No, Corla just wants some meat snacks.” She says. “Liam why don’t you take Janica into the
kitchen and show her around it and bring out some snacks and juice for us.” She said to our little brother. “Sure. Come
on Janica, I will show you where the good stuff is kept.” He says as he takes her hand and leads the way into the kitchen.
*********************
JESSIE: I won’t except that she could be his mate, I will teach her. I go into the kitchen and start to go through the
cupboards, finding everything I need, I get to work I wash the arugula, basil, red ginseng root, the maca root and the
white truffles and set about making a salad, I slice the roots thin, using the whole of the root, then I make up a dredge
for the oysters, I take the ginseng root power, the maca root powder ashwagandha root powder mixed with a little flour
salt pepper set it aside, I will fry the oysters tomorrow, and chop them up and then put them on the salad. I dress it with
honey and balsamic vinegar. I cover the bowl and shake it up to coat everything. I then take Strawberries, I peel them, just
using the red outer flesh and the seeds. Cherries, Figs, and Cinnamon and make a smoothie. When I am done I place
everything in the back refrigerator. I plan on feeding it to Kes for the next 4 days, and by the time she is done eating all
that she will be so frustrated that she will want to jump anything that walks, and if he truly is her mate he will have to
take her, or she will literally jump anyone and then he will reject her too. I come back into the main part of the kitchen
just as Liam and Janica come in from the pool. “Hey.” I say “Hey.” They both say in unison “What are you guys up to?” I
asked. “James is having a meeting out by the pool, and he asked me to bring out snacks, and so I thought I would show
Janica where all the good snacks were kept.” Liam says. “Why is James having a meeting out at the pool?” “I don’t know,
but that is where he is having his meeting.” Liam says. “What’s it about?” “I think pack issues, because of Star leaving,
who might be Beta, that kind of stuff.” He says. “Oh, well have fun.” I say as I grab an apple and head back to the marquee, and wait until I have to head back down to the cells. I get a link from dad. “Jessie come to my office.” “Yes
daddy.” I reverse my steps and head to his office.
DRAKE: I wait for Jessie; I hear the knock. “Come.” I call out to her. My door opens and she comes in and closes it behind
her. “You wanted to see me?” “Yes, I have spoken to your brother, and we have decided, that we are changing your
punishment, you will clean the torture cells in the morning, and when you shift, if or when your mate claims you, you will
be able to leave early with him. Do you understand.” “Yes daddy.” “Good, you will be taken back down to the cells at 11
tonight, and every night until you shift.” I tell her. She pouts at me hoping to get me to change my mind. “I promise I will
be good; I won’t do anything anymore; can’t I just stay in my room?” “No, you cannot, you thought it was funny that
your sister had to spend a week in the cells, you are getting off easy, you only have a few nights in the cells, granted you
have to clean them, but she had to work for 2 months for Mr. Rickman, consider yourself lucky that we are going to let
you go when your mate claims you, and not tell him/her what you have done here.” I tell her. “Yes daddy.” She says
sounding dejected. “You can go now.” “Yes daddy.” She gets up and walks out the door.
JESSIE: Now for sure she is getting that salad, and I will top it with pumpkin seeds, Pomegranate seeds, sliced almonds
chopped walnuts, and I am going to put dark chocolate in it and ashwagandha root power in that smoothie to. Bitch!
KESKA: Now that Janica is out of the way Corla takes some of the pool water, about what would fill a 5-quart pail, and
holds it over James’s head, then splash, she lets it go. I couldn’t help but grin at that. The rest of the group busted out
laughing at James. “What the?” “Corla wanted to see if you could take as good as you gave.” I tell him. “How is that even
possible?” He asked. {I am elemental I control water, and fire. I will wait for your mate to see you all wet before I dry you.}
She tell him. “Gee thanks Corla.” {Don’t be sarcastic with me, or you will stay wet for the rest of the evening, so long as I
am near water, you will not be dry.} she tells him. “Sorry.” He says. I watch his eyes glaze over. I just wait. Liam and Janica
come back out shortly with the requested snacks. “What happened to you?” Janica asked James. “Corla happened.”
James says. “Who’s Corla?” {“I am Corla.”} My wolf says. {“I wanted you to see him all wet. I will dry him now.”} and just
like with Lim that time, she takes all the water that is soaked into his clothes and pulls it out and puts it back in the pool.
“Thank you Corla, I will endeavor not to be sarcastic with you in the future.” James tells her. {“Welcome.”} she says. “She
sounds strange.” Janica says, “I mean no disrespect to you Corla.” She is quick to add. Corla pushes forward some so that
both James and Janica understand that she is in control here. {“None taken, they say that I sound like the human cartoon
Scooby Doo, only in a female voice and tone, I do not know, as I have not heard this cartoon.”} she says. “Can we meet
you?” Janica asked her. {“You have.”} She tells her. “I’m sorry I meant to say, can we see you.” {“If I show you, you will
need to keep me a secret, I will one day show myself to the pack, but I will not do so until Jessie is gone, I will not let her
hurt Keska again.”} She tell them. “We understand
