Chapter 85 - Coras Plans (1) (1/2)
Being wolves, their recovery process was fast. It only took two days for them to heal completely. Dmitri and Adrianna were now at the peak of their health. Everyone around them was very pleased. Nate was especially happy to see his alpha alive and well.
Since he had been away for a long time, Nate filled him in with all the information he had missed, and said that he was urgently needed back.
Dmitri had to leave Adrianna. He said, ”Don't talk about this to anyone. I will come back in the evening to Ed's cottage and we will discuss things then.”

Cora was boiling when she saw that Dmitri had finally returned after so many days. She wanted to talk to him about several matters, including Keisha, but he hadn't been able to give her any time.
Dmitri had been meeting with the chiefs all day and had been exhausted by the end of it. However, what he wasn't ready for was his mother's backlash.
Cora was frustrated because she was getting furious over the fact that he had been spending so much time with Adrianna, neglecting his duties and his pack. She had found out from her informers as to where he had been spending his days, and it made her mad. When she was finally able to meet with him over dinner, she noticed that he was avoiding her. She clenched her jaw and looked at him. Then she shouted, ”Keisha.”
Keisha, who had recovered a day earlier, had come to meet Dmitri. Instead of Dmitri, she only found Cora in the house. Feeling dejected, she talked to Cora about general stuff. Cora had always been fond of Keisha and so she had invited her over for dinner the next day.
To Dmitri's surprise, Keisha came running out of Cora's room when she heard Cora call for her. Keisha came over to Dmitri and the first thing she did was hug Dmitri. Dmitri narrowed his eyes at Cora.
Cora looked at Keisha and said, ”How are you feeling today Keisha?”
”I am fine,” she replied with a huge smile while sitting down next to Dmitri to have dinner. She took his hand in hers and squeezed it.
Dmitri removed his hand from hers. It just didn't feel right. He started having his dinner. Suddenly, he found Keisha's feet on his leg beneath the table. He had to remove her feet from there somehow. In order to divert her attention, he asked her, ”Are you still taking the medicines that the healer gave you?”
”Yes I am Dmitri. Thanks for asking. You are so good to me Dmitri. You always take care of me and ask about my well being. You and Cora are the only family I have,” she said getting emotional.
