RIVER POV
I didn’t know what happened, I was just coming inside from talking to my father when I saw Tasha running out of the dinning hall, what the heck happen? Did Shelly do something to her to piss her off, i asked my mother she told me,
“Honey, she was fine i promise, but she was nervous when she started walking into the dinning hall, i think it was a panic attack, maybe i should go check up on her.”
‘No, mom, she's my mate, if i'm going to be king oneday, im going to need to start acting like one, ill go check up on her and see if she’s okay, i hurried to her room i tried the doorknob, good she didn’t lock it, i was hoping she didn’t because i didn’t want to knock the door down to get to my mate, then i would had probably scare her and she would be scared of me, we didn’t need that, shes recovering from alot of stress, i didnt see her in her room, i checked in the walk in closet she wasn't in here either, i tried the bathroom, and jackpot, she was on the floor with her head between her knees breathing hard, she was having a panic attack, i knew this all to well, slowly walking into the bathroom i kneeled infront of her, she raised her head, i saw she was fighting back tears, she spoke softly if i wasn’t a wolf, i wouldn't be able to hear her, but i did,
“Im sorry, im just not used to a big crowd and when everyone started watching me, i had a panic attack, please forgive me,” gently touching her arm,
“Honey, there is nothing to forgive, we will go at your rate okay, come on into the bedroom and sit down, i will be right back with something to eat for you and i we will eat up here okay,” she stopped my by holding my arm so i couldn’t walk out by myself,
“I think i will walk back with you if that is okay?” i smiled from ear to ear as she had no problems touching me, i loved how her hand felt on my arm,
‘Of course it's okay, are you ready to head down to the dining hall or do you want to wait a little longer honey,” i saw her breath in and out a few more times, then nodded,
‘I'm ready, let's get going, she put her hand in mine then we walked out the door back to the dining hall, she tensed up when we walked back inside, many watched us as we walked back inside some even smiled at her, i saw her smile back she even said hi, i was so proud of her, she has a long road ahead of her, but i knew she will be okay, i think i will have mom train her, i hope she would agree to it, if i trained her, i don’t think it would do any good because i couldn’t ball up my fist near her, she would be scared and i didn’t want that to happen, so when we got to the table mom asked her if she was okay,
“Yeah, im okay i promise, i just had a panic attack, i'm not used to being in a large room with so many people, but i'm okay, I have a road ahead of me, but i will do my best to beat it,’ after awhile we began to eat, I took this time to mindlink my mother and see what she says about training Tasha,
‘Mom, I was wondering if you could train Tasha, if i train her, she might get scared of me if i raise my hand at her, she needs to get stronger before we train together, what do you think,” it took a minute for her to reply, she was chewing her food and thinking about what i asked her and said, then she replied back to me,
“I think its a good idea honey, i will start tomorrow since all my paperwork is done and i have no calls to make tomorrow, when she gets stronger then you and her can train together, i am proud of you for making this decision, i will tell her now, since she is almost done eating,”
‘Tasha, i think tomorrow that you and I should train in the gym together, that way you won’t be near a large crowd, once you are strong enough and your mind is stronger, we will go outside to train, we will take small steps, but only when you are ready, it will be up to you, there is no rush,” I could tell she was thinking about this, she was slowly eating a shrimp, then she cut a piece of steak putting it in her mouth, i had to look away because i wanted to kiss her lips so badly, it was killing me,
“I think its a good idea as well, as long as River doesn’t mind. I want to train, like i said, i would watch the warriors train and then when i was by myself i would copy what they did. I would do my best not to make any nose so i wouldn’t get into trouble, i even broke my step sisters nose once, i won’t tell you what happened to me afterwards but it sure felt good breaking it, what time should i be at this gym?”
“Ill come and get you from your room at six in the morning, just make sure you are wearing workout clothes, we got you some at the store if you remember,” I told her,she nodded, at me smiling,
“Yes i remember, i have them in my dresser, i'll be ready before you come and get me, i'm excited about this, i can’t wait to start training,” i was excited for her, when dinner was over i walked her around the castle so she could explore it, i showed her the many rooms we had, the unmated is downstairs, once you find your mate, you move out to one of the empty houses, that we have. we have a midwife for delivering babies, but we also have doctors and nurses as well, i showed her the game room were people can shoot pool or play video games, or play air hockey, that was my favorite i showed her the indoor pool and the outside pool, i showed her every room we had in this castle,
‘Soon i will show you our house, its been built for the longest time, but i never wanted to live in it until i found my mate, dad and mom has their house as well, but they spend most of their time here so they sleep here most of the time, its like our second house, i was talking so much, when i looked over at her she was just watching me listening to me, she had the cutest smile on her face, i finally walked her to her room, when we got to the door she opened it and asked me if i wanted to come inside,
“Its okay im not scared, but i don’t want to do anything right now, not until i am ready, we can lay on the bed together can’t we,” i nodded as i walked inside,
“I'm going to leave me shirt and boxers on okay, i promise i wont touch you in any way that you will feel uncomfortable, if in anyway you get scared and want me to leave, just let me know and i will get up and go okay, this is all your decision baby okay.” she nodded she went to the bathroom to change, when she came out she was wearing her night shirt and night pants, she looked so cute they had butterflies and flowers on them, walking over to the bed she climbed in beside me, she took my arm putting it around her, she stiffen a little but she calmed down, i knew she was trying, but this is her, im going at her pace, i wont force her into anything she doesn’t want to do, but i loved holding her, even if its just for a night, i was going to cherish this,
