His Alpha's Guardian novel Chapter 7

**Kataleya’s POV**

I felt hands touching my forehead and I jolted awake, swinging my hands out and flipping the person over me, me hovering over the top of them, one hand on her throat.

I blinked a few times to clear the sleep from my eyes and realized that it was just Dr. Leigh. I clambered off of her as quickly as I could and apologized profusely.

“I am sorry, Dr. Leigh. I did not realize that you were there. You scared me awake. I thought you were an attacker…and well, I attacked.”

She chuckled as she climbed off my bed. “It is no big deal, Kataleya. I should not have scared you. I should have made my presence known. Alpha Justin asked me to come and check on you. He was worried that you were coming down with a cold. I told him that I would pop in after I had fixed Oliver. He had gotten pretty banged up during training today. Poor boy spared with Justin and was knocked on his ass. He told me that he thought it was a good idea to taunt your mate, so your mate taught him a lesson.”

I laughed, shrugging my shoulders and shaking my head. “You know, you would think that Oliver would have learned his lesson by now. Justin was the best warrior in the pack before we had mated. Once we mated, he had some of my genes and genetics flowing through his blood, which just made him ten times stronger. I guess it will take Justin to break a major bone in his body before he realizes that he cannot get the one-up on my mate. Oliver used to be like this with me until I knocked him out when he called me a bitch.”

Dr. Leigh laughed. “Yeah, you know how boys are. Always trying to prove something. In this case, trying to prove who is the strongest. So, Justin said you are not feeling well and haven’t been for the past couple of days. Tell me what has been going on with you?”

I sighed. I should have known Justin would have called the doctor when I started to throw up. “The past couple of days I have been really sluggish and nauseous. Then, this morning when I woke up, I guess I had rolled out of bed too quickly and the moment that I touched the ground I was feeling nauseous and dizzy. I thought I was going to throw up, but I didn’t. Then, I was fine. I went to the bathroom and showered. I went to my office and worked on paperwork and video called Michael. One of the Omegas brought Justin and I some breakfast and as soon as she opened the door, the smell of the food wafted to me and I ran to the bathroom. I am sure that I may have scared the poor Omega into thinking something was wrong. I hope Justin reassured her that everything was okay…”

Dr. Leigh looked thoughtful. “Alpha, when was your last heat?”

I had to think back for a moment. Hmmm…when was my last heat?

“Ummm…it was about a month ago. Justin and I had to take off and left Oliver in charge for three days.”

“And when was the last time you had intercourse?”

“Which time? You mean where we both finished? Or the last time we tried something? Those are very distinctive differences.”
