***Rowen***

I was not looking forward to this meeting. I knew I was going to have to maintain my temper with thistherapist, but I really didn’t want to. I wanted to put her in her place, and tell her off. She crossed linesshe shouldn’t have, and either disregarded important facts about her patient or just ignored a largeportion of information about her patient. The fact that she insulted Chastity, and called her a liar didn’thelp matters either.

I was lost in my thoughts when we pulled up in front of the prison. Robert was waiting for us in front ofthe building with an older man, and woman. I assumed they were the warden, and head of the mentalhealth. department for the prison. With a deep breath I got out of the car then opened the door forChastity. offering her my hand to help her get out of the car. I gave her a small smile when she took it.

“Just to prepare you, we have to introduce you as the future Luna of our pack, ok?” I mind linkedChastity.

“OK.” Chastity responded.

We followed my dad up to Robert, and the two standing with him. We all bowed to him..

“Hello. I am Alpha Joseph Druid of Moonlight back. This is my son, and our future Alpha Rowen Druid,and his mate, our future Luna, Chastity Bloomfield.” My father stated to the two with Robert.

“Hello. I am the warden here. My name is Dane Kane. This is the head of our mental healthdepartment, Megan Launder.” Dane said as he bowed to us.

“Hello.” Megan said as she bowed.

“Shall we head to the conference room?” Robert asked.

We all nodded, and followed him into the building silently. Warden Dane lead us to a locked door to theright of the main entrance. We followed him to the end of the first hall to a medium sized conference. Ithad a round conference table. My father took a seat on one side with Chastity and I beside him. Robertsat opposite us, with Dane to one side of him, and Megan on the other..

“I’m sorry Ms. Megan, but are you Fiona Goldrind’s therapist?” My father asked politely.

“I am not. I was informed there was a concern with one of my employees, and wanted to replace out whatyou deem is the problem before addressing it with her.” Megan responded.

“While I respect that, it is my understanding that her presences was requested for the entire meeting.”“As she is my employee I would prefer to have a one on one discussion with her following the meeting.once the matter is sorted. I would rather not have her accused off the bat.”

“Megan! You will maintain respect when speaking to an Alpha. You were also informed that Wanda wasto be here for the entire meeting. As this situation involves ignoring orders listed in an inmates file, andobtaining information not provided in said file, Wanda must be part of this meeting.” Warden Danestated firmly.

“Do we have proof of this?”

“You read the email, and saw that it was from Wanda, so yes we do. Now please have her join us.”Megan only nodded, and left the room. While she was gone dad pulled out his laptop, and a couple offiles. Robert also pulled out a rather thick file, and started his laptop. None of us said anything untilMegan returned with a 20 something looking female who was shorter with blond curly hair. She waswearing jeans, and a sweatshirt. She took a seat next to Megan, looking rather confused.

“Are you Wanda Bundy?” My father asked.

“Yes I am. And you are?” Wanda asked.

“I am Alpha Joseph Druid of Moonlight Pack. This is my son Rowen Druid, future Alpha of Moonlightpack Along with his mate, and future Luna, Chastity Bloomfield.” My father stated.

“It’s about time you showed up. Leaving your mate the way you have is wrong, and against our beliefsystem in every way. How can you abandon your mate the way you have, and believed some liar overher?” Wanda snapped at me.

“I’m sorry, but what? My mate is seated right beside me. Fiona Goldrind is not, and has NEVER beenmy mate!” I growled.

“My patient wouldn’t lie to me about that. What’s worse is you brought the liar who caused her to be inhere, and for you to abandon her.”

“I suggest, Ms. Bundy, that you reel in your disrespect, and listen.” My father snapped.

“You’re not my Alpha. I don’t….” Wanda started.

“Wanda Bundy, you WILL listen to what Alpha Joseph, and future Alpha Rowen have to say, and showthem the respect they deserve. You will also NOT continue to disrespect their future Luna, Chastity,again. Do I make myself clear?” Robert snapped, after slamming his hand on the table.

“But, my patient…..” Wanda sputtered.

“Ms. Bundy, did you read Fiona’s entire file? Did you watch the videos of her confessions prior toseeing her?” My father asked.

“No. I trust my patients to be upfront, and honest with me on all things. They have no reason to lie tome.” Wanda answered.

“What?! Wanda, we are required to review all of the information provided to us prior to meeting ourpatients. We need to do that in order to ensure our patients receive the proper care.” Megan stated,looking shocked.

“My patient wouldn’t lie to me.” Wanda said firmly.

“Well she did. I’m living proof that she did.” Chastity said with anger lining her voice.

“She says you are the one lying. That you have lied to everyone, and stole her mate with your lies.”Wanda growled as she glared at Chastity.

I was about to speak up, when Chastity grabbed my hand on the table, and shook her head. Shelooked back at Wanda for a minute, just studying her. I was confused when Chastity stood up, andturned around. I was worried she was leaving. Instead she unbuttoned her shirt, and took it off. I wasrelieved to see she was wearing a tank top underneath. She than raised the back of her tank top toshow her scares. To say I was shocked that she would do that, would be an understatement.

“Does this look like I’m lying? Do you see the biggest scar? That was given to me by Fiona the last timeshe, her Aunt, and our Gamma’s mate took a whip to my back. She contributed to several of thosemarks over the last 4 years. The list of things Fiona did to me is long. Thankfully I have healed from therest, but those I will forever live with.” Chastity said as she lowered her tank top, turned around, andretook her seat without putting her button down back on.

“My patient wouldn’t do that.” Wanda argued.

“I almost died at the hands of your patient. If it weren’t for my brother I very well could have been killedwith Fiona’s help. The last beating I received put me in a coma for 3 days, and in the hospital for 6. Youneed to read your patient’s file. Those are not lies. You also need to watch the videos where she

confesses, and see the pictures of the results of her actions.”

“How do I know you’re not lying about all of that, and blaming my patient for those scars when you didthem to yourself or had someone do it to frame my patient.”

“It’s all in the file. She even admitted to the YEARS of abuse she subjected me to.”

“None of that matters when you stole the most important thing to a werewolf from her. Her mate!”

“I didn’t steal Rowen. He was never hers to begin with.”

“Enough! Wanda, you need to read the file!” Warden Dale cut in.

“But….” Wanda started.

“Wanda, this is why we read files, and review everything provided to us. You need to do as they say.”Megan stated.

“Fine. I’ll read it later.” Wanda agreed sounding annoyed.

“No. You need to read it now. We will also be watching the videos. You need to understand what youare dealing with here. Had I known you hadn’t done any of that, I would have never assigned you toFiona.” Megan said as she shook her head.

“I don’t have her file here. It’s in my office.”

“Here.” My father said as he slide a file over to Wanda.

“I still don’t know what any of this has to do with her mate ignoring her when she needs him most. Whyhe is abandoning her for another.” Wanda gripped as she took the file, and opened.

“I’m not her mate, and never have been. Chastity has been my mate from day one. Fiona knows thisvery well. Her aunt fed her a lot of lies, and Fiona refuses to believe they are lies.” I said as I took holdof Chastity’s hand.

I worried when I felt how cold her hand was, and how badly it was shaking. She was either cold orupset. I wasn’t sure, but I was still concerned. As Wanda started reading through Fiona’s file, I helpedChastity put her shirt back on, follow by taking my suit jacket off, and draping it around her shoulders.

“I…. Why would she lie?” Wanda asked as she continued flipping through the file.

“Fiona doesn’t accept responsibility for her actions, ever. She never has. Her aunt, my stepmother, andher father never made her. They allowed her to blame others or claim that she did nothing wrong. Itdoesn’t help that she was told for years that she was doing right by abusing me. Her aunt told her thatshe was showing her ability to be a good Luna by keeping the Omega and slave, which was me, inline.” Chastity responded quietly, making me growl, and she squeezed my hand to calm me down.

“Why would she think she would be Luna?” Wanda questioned.

“Because Aurora convinced her that she was my mate, and even if she wasn’t I would take her as mychosen mate.” I answered, “None of which is true. If Chastity wasn’t my mate, I still wouldn’t chooseFiona as I do not want a Luna who can harm another as she has.”

“Why would she do all of this?” Wanda asked.

“She was praised, and rewarded for hurting me. She got approval from her aunt, and father for it. It’s allin the video confessions.” Chastity said.

“Oh.”

Without being asked my father turned his laptop to Wanda after pressing the mousepad. He alsohanded her headphones to listen with.

“Rowen, Chastity, and I have all heard this one too many times. I don’t think any of us want to hear itagain, if we don’t have to.” My dad said.

Megan pulled out of pair of head phones, and listened with Wanda. The looks on their faces as theylistened was a look of shock. Megan began to look sickened as she listened. She even shook her heada few times. Wanda just listened with a blank expression. As we watched them I put my arm aroundChastity’s shoulders, and pulled her close to me. Letting her rest her head against my shoulder. I hadno doubt she was reliving her past, at least to some extent. I wanted to make sure she knew she couldlean on me. Both literally, and figuratively.

Eventually Megan hit something on the laptop, then slide it over to Dane, who put in his ownheadphones. Megan studied Chastity for a long time, then shook her head, and sighed. She thenlooked at Wanda who was wore a blank expression, staring at Chastity.

“Wanda, Fiona’s treatment has to be changed. I hadn’t realized the extent of her delusions, andinstability.” Megan finally said.

“If her mate….” Wanda started, but Megan stopped her with a raised hand.

“He is not her mate. It sounds like she hasn’t even met her mate at this point. Also a mate can’t fix this.This is too extensive, and damaging.”

“But….”

“Wanda, I’m sorry, but Fiona has been lying to you this whole time. It’s not only obvious in the videos,but also in the interaction between the two in front of us. We can all see they are mates. Now we needto focus on the best way to actually treat our patient. If you can’t see past the lies she has told you thenI’m sorry, but I’ll have to assign someone with more experience to treat her.”

“Are you firing me?”

“I’m not yet, no. I am taking a patient from you though. I do have a question that needs to beanswered.”

“What?”

“How did you get future Alpha Rowen’s contact information? It was not in Fiona’s file. Also why did you.ignore the order in the file that no one from Moonlight pack was to be contacted concerning Fiona?”

“They’re her pack, and she told me he was her mate. She needs them right now. They also needed toknow they had been lied to.”

“In the end, it was you who was lied to. You would have known that if you had actually read her file, aswe are supposed to with every new patient we treat here. This is a prison. We need to be aware ofwhat we are dealing with before we even walk into that room.”

“It was the only way I could get her to talk to me beyond telling me that she was lied about, and forcedto be here because of those lies.”

“But

you would have known she was the liar, and known how to treat her if you had READ HER FILECOMPLETELY! You failed patient care one-oh-one by not being fully prepared to treat her properly. Youfed into the delusions that we are supposed to be helping end. You could have potentially made thiswhole situation worse on top of it.”

“How?”

“Now someone, probably me, will have to go, and deal with an emotionally and mentally unstableperson, to inform her they we are aware of her lies. I will also have to inform her that she will becompleting her sentence, and her demand for a male that has no ties to her, will not be seeing her. Norwill she have any contact with him. Do you know what that could do to her?”

“I….no.”

“That’s probably for the best. You will not be seeing her as a patient again. Nor will you be allowed tovisit her in any capacity. You just made a bad situation worse.”

“But…”

“No. Your actions are going to cause harm to a patient. I can’t risk it. You did not answer my otherquestion though. How did you get future Alpha Rowen’s contact information?”

“I….I went on Moonlight pack’s website, and looked it up.”

“How? Pack websites are blocked here.”

“From home.”

“Wanda, here is what is going to happen. You are going to give an official apology to Future AlphaRowen, and Future Luna Chastity. Second, you are going to be put on Administrative leave, withoutpay for two weeks. While you are leave I will be reviewing all of your case files, as well as interviewingyour patients. If I replace that you have behaved in the same manner with them that you have with Fiona, Iwill be forced to let you go, and have the board review if your license should be revoked, permanently.”

“What? Why?”

“Because of your inability to follow proper procedure, not following orders, and entertaining thedelusions. of a patient, you have potentially put that patient at risk for self harm That is not something,we as therapists can or will take lightly. I have to think of the good of current, and future patients Notonly here, but out in the rest of the world.”

“But…”

“I’m sorry Wanda, but it must be this way. I can’t risk people. I just can’t.”

“I won’t let it happen again. I promise.”

“I hear your words, but I need to investigate the situation entirely. Also, you are not to now, or evercontact ANY member of Moonlight Pack again. Especially Future Alpha Rowen, and Future LunaChastity. Do you understand?”

“Yes. I understand. I am sorry to you both.”

Chastity, and I both nodded at Wanda then she left the room. I hadn’t expected this meeting to go quitelike this, but I was glad it did. I hoped this was the one, and only time I had to deal with this issue.

“What….what will happen to her?” Chastity asked quietly.

“Unfortunately I don’t know yet. I need to review everything she has done since she got here before afinal decision can be made. In this situation she could have done more harm than good. I can’t let thatslide with even one patient.” Megan responded calmly.

“I understand. What about Fiona? How are you going to handle that?”

“Don’t worry, I know the best way to work with a patient who suffers from delusions as Fiona does. Iwon’t be harsh with her, or anything like that, but I will work with her in a way that will be helpful to her,not harinful. I’ve been doing this for a very long time, so I know the best ways to work this in a way thatFiona will not harm herself.”

“I….thank you. Fiona is part of my past, and I would like her to stay that way, but I don’t want her to hurtherself either.”

“I understand you’re concern, but don’t worry, I know what to do.”

“I believe you.”

“I want to apologize to both of you that this happened. I will make sure that there will not be a repeat.”

“Thank you very much.” I said.

“Thank you.” Chastity said quietly as we stood up to leave.

We followed my father, Robert, and Warden Dane out of the building. Once we said our goodbyes, thethree of us got back in the car to drive back to Cloverland. I kept looking back at Chastity who satquietly for a long while.

“You ok, sweet girl?” I finally asked..

“Hmmm. Yes actually. I’m just thinking about everything that was said in there. I feel bad for Wanda, butat the same time she doesn’t seem like a very good therapist. I hope she learns from this experiencethough.” Chastity said.

“I hope you’re right. It’s not something we need to worry about though. They will figure things out. It hasnothing to do with us.”

“That’s true.”

“You did well in there Chastity.” My father finally said.

I

“Thank you. I’m sorry I took my shirt off, but being called a liar didn’t sit well with me.” Chastity saidlooking down at her hands.

“Don’t apologize. You did nothing wrong. You are will within your right to stand up for yourself.” I stated.

“Thank you.” Chastity said as she smiled at me.

“I’m sorry Chastity, but we can’t stay for dinner. We need to get back.” My dad said quietly.

“It’s ok. I have homework to do any way.”

Dad just nodded. When we pulled up out front of Cloverland, I jumped out of the car to give Chastity aproper goodbye. After giving her half a dozen kisses that I struggled not to push too far, I got back inthe car. I watched Chastity from the mirror until she disappeared. With a sigh, I really hoped that wouldbe the last time we had to deal with anything concerning Fiona.
