There was nothing in her line of sight but the sorce of her sleepless nights. Ann staring at his face, his face was handsomer than she remembered. She had to take a moment to try and figure out if she was awake or asleep.

His face had been present in every one of her dreams since they had met no matter, she tried to push him from her mind. However now, his touch was too warm and his arm wrapped around her shoulder was too heavy for her to be dreaming as well that they were both fully clothed.

The moment she realized that everything was in fact reality hit she gasped raising her hand to slapped his face. However, he was quick, stupid Were enhanced reflexes. He caught her hand smirking at her. "I can't wait to touch you either nurse but we have to get you out of the car first." He chuckled kissing her palm.

Ann's face turned a deep shade of red as his words and actions. "Stop touching me!" She shouted pushing him away pulling her hand away his kiss still burned to her skin. Where was Doc why wasn't he helping her. Though she soon heard a chuckle behind the large stupidly handsome face blocking her sight.

"Let her out of the car to stretch about young lad." She heard her traitorous mentor. "Ann can be a little grumpy when she first wakes up."

Ann watched in shock as Mr. Stoneblack's ,she refused to call him by his first name as he had wanted her to, turned from playful mirth to a displeased scowl. She never seen someone's face change so quickly. He leaned back and looked over his shoulder, "How do you know?"

"Ann often comes into the office sleep deprived. I have even had to wake her up from a lunch time nap more than once." The doc chuckled but Ann thought the chuckle was a little forced. Ann tried looking around the large male once more to see her mentors face with no luck.

Finally, she leaned back pushing the lug in front of her again. "Mr. Stoneblack it is none of your business what my habits are or who sees me at what time of day."

Stoneblack turned back to her with a small dangerous smirk. "Everything you about is my business nurse. After all we are mates?"

"No we are not." Ann shot back at him pushing harder. This time Mr. Stoneblack finally moved back. Ann took this moment to step out of the car placing her hands on her hips. "I told you last time. I will not fall for this song and game again. And I most certainly am not going to let you treat my friends poorly because of some messed up sense of entitlement over me." She snapped back at the brute only for him to smile at her annoying the young woman even more.

"I have missed you too." Ann groaned rolling her eyes longing to strike the male again only this time not have him catch her hand this time.

"Ulric leave the poor girl alone." Another voice joined the three bodies standing by the car. Ann looked up towards the house for the first time. It was huge, not gaudy huge like someone who had to much money. But old and tasteful huge like a building with a lot of love and history. This building had been around and well maintained for years and it showed.

The exquisite sight made Ann's jaw drop taking in the beautiful laid brick and fine sculped stone that decorated the old building. She marveled at the expertly carved wood that trimmed the building and windows with white painted shutters.

Ann eyes followed down the building marveling at the sight. The house rested on top of a hill with stairs carved into it so that one could easily go up and down to the building, on those stairs was who Ann was assumed had spoken to scolded her new bully.

The woman descending the stairs was a handsome woman who had aged gracefully and was no doubt breath taking in her younger years. With her sliver grey air shorn in the back and then the fronts cut into a neat b choppy ob. There where similarities here and there between the brute that stood in front of her and the older woman. This woman's grey eyes where calm and mellow like a drizzly spring morning verse the danger that shone in the male's eyes. They both had sculpted face but this womans as soft verse the harsh maleness of the younger Were.

Ann smiled at the woman as Mr. Stoneblack turned over his shoulder with a boyish smirk. "Mother. I was not expected you to see you till dinner."

The elder woman looked at her son with a look of mockery as well as disappointment until she finally reached the bottom of the stairs. "Well, I wanted to see this woman you have been day dreaming about non-stone making everyone uncomfortable." The woman then turned to Ann with a kind smile on her face.

Ohwell had given her that look more than once but she never seen it one someone else face. It was a smile of kindness and pride and understanding. "Oh my, you are beautiful." The woman said reaching her hand out. "I am Luna of the Stone Clan, Maria Stoneblack."

Ann smiled a little nervously Shaking the older woman's hand "Umm you flatter me too much," Ann dismissed the comment on her appearance, much to the displeasure to the male Stoneblack as he growled beside her. However, Ann just ignored him. "Annailay Michelle Kindale, plese just call me Ann." Maria smiled once more before turning to the Doc,

"Oliver it is so nice to see you again. Thank you for coming and bring Miss Ann along."

"No thank you," The doctor smiled Reaching out his hand shaking Maria's. "It has been so long since I have come back for a visit. okus I am excited for a chance to study why the matting call has been especially strong for your clan lately."

"It would be nice know why, though we do love all the new couple that run about." Maria smiled looking to her son and Ann once more before turning back to the old Doctor. "Not that we mind having you come just to visit," Maria laughed before her asshat of an offspring chimed in. "And bringing our Gia and my mate to us."

Ann finally looked towards to the male Stoneblack with a hard glance. "Again, not you mate." The male turned to her with his smile still in place, "Again yes you are."

Ann groaned throwing her arms in the air before turning to Maria again. "Excuse me, Luna" Ann asked testing the title to see how the woman would prefer to be called. Maria smiled turning to Ann once again, "Please Maria will be just fine."

Amm smiled at the friendly request answering her unasked question. "Maria than, could you please show me the way to see the pregnant woman? I would like to get to work as soon as possible and make sure they are all safe and comfortable as well as do a basic check up with all of them."

"Does this mean you will call me Ulric now?" Mr. Stoneblack asked leaning over towards Ann making her leaning back away from him.

"Not a chance in hell."

"So, there is a chance on earth and in Heaven then? I like there being two chances" The nuisance teased back. Ann glared again not enjoying the childish antics, "You really live in your own dream world don't cha rover?"

The large male blinked a little surprised though Maria and the doc burst into full hearty laughter showing their approval of the nick name. Maria spoke between fits of giggles.

"You were right Ulric. She does spit fire."
