My Fated Human Luna -
Chapter 11
Archer
POV
The minute she stepped into my office and I saw Gabby for the first time I felt it in my soul. Despite me not being blood to this pup she is mine. "That's our pup Archer." "I know I feel it too." When she comes so willing into my arms, I feel the warmth in my chest. "Your big" she says in her little voice and I laugh. "Gabby" Sabrina says and she looks to her mother. "It's ok 'm a big guy." Sabrina blushes but I don't bring it up. I hold her for a little longer while she shows me a teddy bear, she is holding. "Ok sweetheart time to play with your toys while mama talks with Archer." She takes her from my arms taking her over to the floor near my desk.
After we get her set up with toys on the floor, I start to go over the papers. I'm showing her the custody agreement when I notice a red mark on my arm. Brutus growls in my mind. When she tells me that bastard grabbed her it takes everything in me not to drive to wherever the fvck he is and rip his head off his body. She assures me she is ok but I am not. I take some deep breaths breathing in her scent before I finally calm down. "Are you alright Archer?" Her question pulls me back to the here and now. "Yes, I'm fine it just upsets me that any man touches a woman in anger." "You're sweet but I promise I'm fine." "Greg is a lot of things but an abuser has never been one of them."
I finish going over the paperwork and by the time we finish its three thirty. Sabrina looks down and smiles. I peek over my desk and Gabby is fast asleep with a teddy bear in her arms. She looks back to me "she usually takes a nap around this time." "I'm sure you have appointments so we will get out of your hair." "No" I say more enthusiastically than I mean to. "I mean its ok I don't have any more appointments this afternoon." She smiles "I appreciate that but I need to get her home so I can feed her when she wakes up since we missed a real lunch." I stand "please let me get you two food and just let her sleep." "I can get anything you two would like." She thinks for a few seconds "sure that would be nice." "It will give you more time to explain the next steps of the process with the divorce." I know she is saying that to let me know that it is business but I don't care why she stays as long as she does. It gives me an opportunity to spend more time with her and our pup. Sabrina POV
It's strange to see such a big man be so gentle with my daughter. I wanted to die when she called him big and he agreed with her. I'm sure my face was a red as a beet but thankfully he didn't say anything. When we are just about finished, I notice that Gabby is out like a light laying in her toys. I got her something to eat on the way here to hold her over but she needs to eat when she wakes up. He takes me by surprise when he insists, we stay and have something to eat with him. I don't understand what his motive is. Maybe it's just being kind or maybe he thinks he can get into my pants because I'm broken right now. That will not be happening.
I make sure he knows that I am only staying to discuss my divorce. He doesn't seem to be at all bothered by my statement so maybe I'm reading more into his kindness. "What would Gabby like to eat?" The fact that he cares about what Gabby wants and not me makes me feel better about my decision to stay. "She loves spaghetti but she may make a mess in your office." He smiles going around his desk to the phone. "What do you want Sabrina?" "I'll have the same." He pushes a button "Misty can you order us three spaghetti dinners from the Italian place I like." "Of course, Mr. Lyons."
About thirty minutes later Gabby is awake and the food just arrived. I set her up in a chair next to me putting a plate in front of her. "What do you say to Archer, Gabby?" "Thank you for my getti Archer." We both laugh and I try to get her to say the whole word without much success. I'm enjoying the dinner until I hear yelling coming from the hallway. Archer is immediately on his feet and at the door. Before he can reach for the handle the door flies open and a very pissed off looking Greg is standing there. I rush to stand between the two men.
"Greg what are you doing here?" He looks around me to the table where Gabby is still eating. "I guess I could ask the same question of you." "This looks far from a professional meeting with a lawyer." I hear a low growl and turn back to a very pissed-off-looking Archer. "Archer please stay calm and let me handle this." He crosses his arms over his broad chest and I take a deep breath before I turn back to Greg. "Greg step into the hallway I'm not going to do this in front of our daughter." He turns heading out into the hallway. Archer puts his hand on my shoulder and I feel that heat across my chest. He immediately drops his hand. "Sabrina, I don't think it's a good idea." "I know what I'm doing Archer please just watch Gabby for a minute." I step out and close the door. Greg POV
As soon as I leave my in laws house I head right to the station. I need to figure out what lawyer she is meeting with. A few clicks of the computer and I know exactly who it is. That b!tch Willow she is friends with has a brother that is a lawyer. I head out to my car and head in the direction of that office. I need to stop this craziness before it gets any farther. I pull into the parking lot and run into the building. I check the directory and replace that bastard's name before I head to the third floor. I approach a pretty woman sitting at the desk. This should be easy enough.
"Can I help you?" "I hope so" I say and wink at her. She rolls her eyes. "I'm looking for my wife, I believe she is here meeting with your boss." "I'm sorry but I can't tell you if anyone is here." I pull the badge out of my pocket, flashing it her way. "Are you here on police business?" I put it back into my pocket. "I just need to see my wife." "I already told you that will not be happening." I'm done dealing with this b!tch. I start down the hallway looking in each office as I go. She is yelling for me to stop but that's not happening. I finally reach a closed door and throw it open. I'm taken back by the man standing in front of me but when I see my wife and daughter all thoughts of him are gone. My wife and daughter are sitting at a table eating dinner like a family with this bastard.
I can tell this as.shole wants to hit me. Sabrina is between us and I want to pull her to me so she isn't so close to him. Once I'm in the hallway I start to pace. Sabrina steps out and closes the door. "Greg, you need to leave." "Why so you can finish your nice little dinner with the lawyer?" "I'm not going to explain myself to you." "Is this why you wanted your parents to keep Gabby so you could come here to fvck him." Before I can say another thing, I feel her palm across my face. "Don't you ever call me a whore again." "I'm not the one that fvcked someone else." The door flies open and that bastard steps into the hallway. "Sabrina, can you go to Gabby she is calling for you." Archer POV
I'm sitting at the table talking to Gabby so she doesn't realize what's happening but with my wolf hearing I know exactly what's being said. When I hear him accuse her of sleeping with me, I have had enough. The sound of the slap resonates in the hallway as I open the door. When I ask her to go to Gabby, I can see the turmoil on her face but she starts to walk past me. "Please don't do anything stupid." I nod and once she is inside I close the door. I step into this little sh*ts space.
"I suggest you leave my office and leave my client alone Officer Piper." "Why are you going to hit me?":"I wish you would." "Unlike you I don't need to use my fists to get my point across." "If I replace out you harass my client again, I will petition for a restraining order which I'm sure won't go over well for a man of the law." "If you think you can keep me away from my wife and daughter you are sadly mistaken." "When I'm done helping her you won't have a wife and as for your daughter that's up to Sabrina." "Now leave my office before I have you charged with trespassing." "This isn't over a**hole." "I look forward to our next meeting." Brutus flashes to the surface and I watch as he takes a second look at me before he heads to the elevator.
I take a deep breath before I turn the handle and walk back into my office. Sabrina is gathering the toys while Gabby is still eating her spaghetti. "Sabrina, can you come over here for a moment." She looks up and I can tell she is fighting back tears. I really want to kill his a** for hurting her over and over. She stands and comes over so Gabby can't hear us. "Sabrina if he keeps this up you're really going to need to think about a restraining order." She looks back to Gabby. "I will think about it." "Thank you for everything today but I need to get her home." "Would you like me to take you?" "I appreciate the offer Archer but I can take care of myself and Gabby." "I have no doubt of that but taking help when its offered is not a sign of weakness Sabrina." She smiles "I'm sorry if I was being a b**ch he just upset me." "Don't ever call yourself that." "I understand it took all I had in me not to pop him and I'm not the one he was married to." She laughs and goes back to clean up the toys. Once she has everything gathered, I walk her to the door. "Goodbye Gabby I hope I see you again soon." "Bye Archer" she waves her little hand at me. "Thank you again Archer for everything." "You're welcome and if at anytime you need help please don't hesitate to call my cell." She nods and walks out of my office. "What if he bothers her when she leaves?" "We can't let her catch us watching her Brutus she will think we are a creep like him." "I know but we have to protect her." I head to the reception desk after I clean off the table and say goodbye to Misty. When I reach the parking lot, I can see her car and no one seems to be around. Once she is inside, I get into my car and follow at a safe distance. She pulls up to a house and once she goes inside, I head to the pack for the night. I feel like a creeper but at least I know she made it home safely.
