**Stephan POV: **
“Stephan gets to my office now it is an emergency”, Seth said via mind link.
What the hell someone better be dying. I was about to have sex with my mate. I get up and get dressed much to Sol's dismay. I angrily marched my ass to the Seth pack house. When I walked in Sherry was feeding Haruo. I stopped and kissed him on his forehead, then to Seth off.
“This better be good I was about to get some pussy”, I said not caring who was in the office.
“Come on man I did not want to hear about you and my sister”, Morton said.
“It is important”, Seth said in a worried tone.
“Okay tell me so I can get back to what I was about to do”, I said annoyed.
“We got a message from Bastet's lover. He said her father is going to attack earlier than she wanted him to”, I said
“So what?”
“The issue is Stephan he is bringing over thirty thousand hunters with him”, Morton said.
“WHAT! you mean to tell me your mate's father is coming to take us all out like everyone”, I said what the fuck.
“According to Bastet, the minimum is thirty thousand
“What the fuck minimum thirty thousand!”, I yelled shocked talking about overkill.
“Yup, he must love his daughter”, Morton said.
“Or love killing us”, I said and Seth rolled his eyes at me.
“There will be a curfew out no one outside after dark which is six pm. Those who are of training age will train every day at noon if they are not at work. I will get more info when she is rested, she will know how to proceed. They could be coming from land and air”
“And my pack will be in the crossfire. Well, you know me brother no one can kill you but me so I am down for a fight”, I said with a shrug.
“Also, we will need some of your men to help build a strong bunker as fast as they can. I already ordered the supplies”, Seth said and I nod. I left and went back to Sol. I will fill Gator in later. I just mind link him that Seth will need some men to help build bunkers and to send some over to him.
**Sol POV: **
I hope Sherry accepts my apology. I really miss hanging out with her. Stephan and are happy to know that I have borderline personality disorder. The worst thing about having an illness is not knowing what it is. I am now on Lamictal I am starting to feel better. However, the side effects of it are not good. Some mornings I get dizziness and/or drowsiness. Today it is nausea and diarrhea. I do not want to complain to Stephan about it because I do not want him to be mad or disappointed in me. Just then Stephan walks in with a smile on his face.
“Hey baby I have something for you”, Seth said then hug and kiss me.
“What is it?”, I asked excitedly.
“This he said as he handed me two envelopes.
“What is this?”, I asked.
“A letter from Sherry and Morton”, he said with a smile. I went to the couch and opened Morton's envelope first.
*Little Sis,
I am happy that you decided to write Sherry an apology letter. I read the letter and can tell how much you miss your friendship with her and our relationship as well. We miss you as well, not a day goes by when I don’t think of you. If it wasn’t for the weekly updates, I get from Stephan I would have lost my shit a long time ago. I need to apologize as well. I should have tried to understand you better. I should have helped you more. Please know I never have and never will hate you. You are my sister and I love you nothing you do can change that. I want so much so you to get better so you can be the greatest aunt I know you will be to my son Haruo and my other pups.
Once you are well enough for Stephan to take you off house arrest, you, me, and Stephan can go out for dinner. Please continue to write me and I will always write you back. I can't wait for us can go for a run together like we use to do when we were kids.
Love always,
Morton *
I could not help the tears that came out of my eyes. I miss our runs as well; I miss him so much. He apologized for something that he could not help. Not of this is his fault, hell it's not even our father's fault. And he treated me like an unwanted child. Stephan wiped my tears then I pass him Morton's letter. Next, I opened Sherry's letter.
*Dear Sol,
I accept your apology and also apologize for my part in our issues. You were the only female here who would even talk to me. When I first came here, I was so scared, but it was you who helped me over that fear. It was you who helped me see that Morton is a good man. It was you who convinced me to give him a chance. Thank you so much for being my friend when I needed one. Whatever issues you and Bastet have I promise I will not get in the middle of it.
Once you are better, we should go shopping. I miss our shopping tips and Goddess knows I need to go shopping. When Stephan says it is okay for us to come and see you, we will. Until then let us continue to m write to each other. Stephan won't mind being the mailman for us. I can't wait for your next letter.
Sincerely,
Sherry

“She wants to continue writing me”, I said to Sol happy.
“That is good baby”, he said as he grabs the letter to read.
“She also accepts my apology”, I said with a smile.
I am so excited the two letters made my day. I will write them both as soon as possible so Stephan can give it to them in the morning. While Stephan read the letter Sherry wrote I went to my stationary desk and started writing their letters. It seems like after I read their letters the side effects of my medication disappeared.
“Baby are you writing them already?”. Stephan asked.
“Yes, that way you can take it to them tomorrow”, I said not looking at him.
“Ok, just leave them under my phone”, she said as he sniffed my hair.
“Baby, so you think I should write one to Seth as well”, I asked nervously.
“If you want to, I do not see why not”, Stephan said with a shrug.
“Okay, then I will write him one as well”, I say with a smile.
It took me about an hour to finish all of the letters. By the time I was done, Stephan had cooked eggplant parmigiana with squid ink pasta. Stephan is a great cook; he places the plate in from of me and I could not wait to dig in. We ate a little before Stephan got my attention.
“How does the medicine feel baby?”, Stephan asked.
“It's okay but I am experiencing some of the side effects”, I said with a shrug.
“Side effects?”, he asked with a raised eyebrow. I have been taking the medicine for a week now and have not mentioned it to Stephan or Dr. Lysol.
“And what side effects are those?”, he asked completely stopped eating.
“Some days it is dizziness and/or drowsiness. But today it is nausea and diarrhea. I can deal with it as long as I am in the house”, I said.
“I will talk to Dr, Lysol about finding something else that does not have so many side effects”, Stephan said.
“It's fine Stephan really my body will adapt to the side effects”, I said.
After we finished eating, we sat in the living room and watched two seasons of True Blood. Stephan surprised me with dessert, he made French baguettes with honey and brown sugar. Sometimes I wonder what good have I done in my life to get such a good second chance mate. We ate and watched the show. I must have fallen asleep because when I woke I was in the bed. And Stephan's arms were wrapped tight around my waist. I get up and put the letter underneath his cell phone. Then I snuck back into the bed.
