Kids From One Alpha” By Selena Lynch Chapter 143

Chapter 143: Visiting Professor

At the hospital on her next shift, Serena decided to call her professor back. She hadn‘t returned his call

initially, because of what Adriana had said, She really didn‘t want any complicated rumors causing probl

ems between her and Logan The

truth was, there wasn’t anything going on between her and her professor He had been a guide to her in

the human world, and she felt

grateful to him. She wanted to think that she could explain that to logan and he would understand, be r

espectful, and trust her. They had come so

far! “Hello?” a male Voice said on the other line, “Professor Alex Henderson?” Serena asked. “This is h

e,” the professor replied. “Alex, it is Serena,” she said with a little laugh. Alex sighed into the phone.

“Way to keep me hanging,” he said. “I thought I‘d get a call back in less than forty–

eight hours. I was ready to give up on you.” Serena giggled. “Sorry,” she said. “Things have been hectic

in my life. There‘s a lot going on for me personally, and with the

pack.” “Ah yes, the pack,” Alex said, “I do want

to hear all about it. Do you think your hectic life can pause long enough for a visit with an old friend?” “A

visit? Alex, you know I can’t leave the pack whenever I want

for a trip into the human world,” she reminded him with a head shake. “Serena, you know

me better than that,” Alex said with a chuckle. “I was asking if I could come visit you.” “Really?” Serena

asked. “You want to come to

pack territory? Okay, what happened to the professor i knew?” Alex laughed on the phone, “Nothing at

all,” he said, “I‘m in need of a vacation and I have been wanting to follow up with you to see where life h

as taken you. It seemed like as good a time as any.” “I‘d love for you to come visit, I just need to get cle

arance from the Alpha first,” she said.

“Alpha Logan?” Alex asked. “Yes,” Serena said. “He‘s my Alpha and my mate of all things.” “Then, do y

ou really need his permission?” Alex asked. Serena sighed. She knew she needed it. Logan would be

much more likely to have a jealousy attack if a random male from her past showed up without any warn

ing “It is the respectful thing for me to do,” she said. “He is still my Alpha”

“Alright, alright,” Alex said. “I was hoping to leave here tomorrow aftemoon, which would allow me to arr

ive in Night Sky teritory the following morning. Unless I hear

otherwise, I will make my travel arrangements.” “Sounds good,” Serena said. “I‘m looking forward to se

eing you.” “As am 1, Alex said. He hung up.

Serena couldn‘t help her glowing smile throughout her work day. Every patient she saw commented on

it. She was excited to see her old professor because he had helped her a lot. Being a werewolf in the h

uman world could be hard. Alex was her support system and helped her land on her feet. Though they‘

d never had anything romantic, he was still important to her success in the human world and her succe

ss as a doctor. On her lunch break, Serena went to Logan‘s office. She wanted to talk to him about her

professor in person and she wanted to do it somewhere where the kids wouldn‘t witness an argument if

it came to that. She wasn‘t ruling it out with how jealous Logan could get.

“What an unexpected surprise,” Logan said. He stepped back from the door and let Serena into his offi

ce. “Something wrong?” He arched an eyebrow at her. “No,” Serena said. She

sat down in a chair and Logan went around his desk, taking his seat again.

“Okay, Serena, why have you come to see me in the middle of the afternoon?” he asked. He smirked a

nd looked her up and down. “Not that I mind.” Serena giggled, her cheeks flushing “Sorry, I‘m here for s

omething else,” she said. “Do you know a wolf named Alex Henderson?” Logan creased his brow. “The

name is somewhat familiar,” he admitted. “Not a name I have heard in a long time, though.” “That‘s bec

ause he lives in the human world. He was a professor of mine in med school, helped me adapt to huma

n life,” she explained.

“Okay,” Logan said with a nod,

“Well, he reached out to me, wanting to follow up on where my life has taken me since med school,” sh

e explained. “He says he wants to come for a visit, but I wanted to

clear it with you first.”

Logan‘s lips lightened for a moment and Serena worried he was about to have an angry outburst, then

he cracked a smile. Logan stood up and moved to the front of his desk He leaned his hips against the d

esk and bent forward, placing a hand on Serena‘s kned

“Why would I have a problem with that?” he asked Serena shrugged.

“You‘re still me Alpha, and he isn‘t a member of the pack I didn‘t want to make a decision that allowed a

non pack member entrance to the femtory,” she pointed oul. Logan smirked

“I see,” he said. “You have my permission to have a visit from a former professor 1 wouldn‘t stand in yo

ur way.” “Thank you, Logan” Serena said, “I think you‘ll really like him.” “I‘m sure I will,” Logan said with

a nod Serena stood up and kissed Logan quickly on the lips.

“I‘ve got to get back to work,” she said. He nodded.

Serena was surprised with how well Logan had taken the news. She had expected some resistance, or

at least Logan saying he needed time to think about it. He was showing her that he respected her and

trusted her. She liked that! Back at the hospital, Serena called Alex again and confirmed that he could c

ome for a visit. She confirmed the timing and then went back to work Serena topped by the nurse‘s stat

ion, pulling new charts out for patients that were waiting in exam rooms. “You‘re smiling

again,” Adriana said. Serena rolled her eyes. “My professor is coming for a visit,” she said. “And before

you get any idea, I already cleared it with Logan, and it is supportive of it.” “Good,” Adriana

said with a nod.

“You‘re not going to make any jokes or twisted remarks?” Serena asked. Adriana laughed.

“Not this time,” she said. “If Logan is okay with it, then clearly I was way off the mark.” Serena laughed

and nodded.

She went to the next exam room on her list. A wolf had come in complaining of a stomach ache and sor

e throat.

“Go ahead and lie back,” Serena said, reviewing the chart quickly. The wolf laid back on the table and

Serena put her stethoscope on.

She listened her patient‘s stomach and intestinal tract. Then she put the

stethoscope aside and gently probed at her patient‘s stomach.

“Does any of this hurt?” she asked.

“No,” her patient said. Serena

nodded. There weren‘t any hard lumps, but she did feel a few pockets of gas in her intestines. Next, Se

rena checked the wolf‘s throat. Her glands were pretty swollen.

“You have some indigestion,” Serena said. “And you might have a viral infection causing the sore throat.

acid and an anti–viral.”

“Thank you, Serena,” the wolf said. Serena wrote up the script and gave her patient her discharge form

She updated the patient file and went on to the next exam room

When Serena got home from her shift at the hospital, Logan was already there. He

had even started dinner again. “Do you actually like cooking?” Serena asked. Logan shrugged. “I don‘t d

“You have a jealous streak,” Serena reminded him. Logan laughed again and shook his head.

“Are you saying you had a romantic relationship with him?” he asked. Serena shook her head.

“Not at all,” she assured.

“Then why would I be worried?” he asked. “You were worried about Carson

and me, after both of us told you there was nothing romantic going on,” she remined him. Logan sighed.

Logan taking responsibility for his emotions, and acknowledging that he had

verreacted before. He was growing.
