Amber's POV.

I'm bone tired the next morning, I stayed up all night keeping and eye on Connor. It was worth it to get to take care of him.

It seems like he's been drifting away from me and I know it's because he needs to do things on his own. Doesn't mean it doesn't hurt any less. I miss him even when he's right next to me.

I never thought it was possible to love someone the way I love him. He means the world to me and I would do anything for him, even if that means taking a step back and letting him decide for himself.

I left him in the bed with little Walnut as I get up and head downstairs for coffee. I don't bother to change out of my outfit. I'm currently wearing the same one from yesterday.

When I make it to the kitchen I see my father and Alpha Conan are sitting down drinking coffee and chatting. Thy look at me as I walk in. " Good morning Amber. You look tired. Did you get any sleep at all?" Asks my father.

I shake my head. " No. I was filling out some paperwork when I felt Connor's migraine through the bond. He had a memory surface last night and I spent the night taking care of him. " I say.

My father gets up. " Here, sit down. I'll get you some coffee. " he said.

I smile sleepily at him and sit down. " You should get some rest today. " says Alpha Conan.

" I would, but I promised them I'd spend the day with them. " I say.

" We can always stop by again on the way back from seeing John? If you need the rest then by all means rest. " says my father setting a coffee cup in front of me.

The lovely scent of caffeinated coffee fills my senses and I hum in approval. " Thank you dad, but I don't go back on my word. I want to spend today with you. "

He smiles warmly at me. " As long as you're sure. Anytime you need rest let me know. " he said.

" Yes sir. " I said back. He chuckled.

" What memory did he get?" Asks Alpha Conan.

" I'm not to sure. I only got a small flash of it. All I know is it was sometime after we met each other. " I say.

" Makes sense. " said my father.

I nod in response. Even since Connor got his memory wiped he's been trying his hardest to remember. I wonder what happened that was different to let him recover that memory?

I voice my thoughts to them to see what they think. " Maybe it's because he's more relaxed?" Said my father.

" I personally think it's because of that little kitten." Said Alpha Conan.

" Walnut?" I ask.

" Yes, Walnut. Think about it. He tried so hard to remember and nothing happened. Then, once he gets this kitten and starts taking care of her, his body and mind is relaxing and he's focused on something other than his memories. He was so happy last night that Walnut opened her eyes. Maybe because of his joy and relaxation his mind calmed and healed without him trying to force it to." Said Alpha Conan.

My eyes fill with sadness. I wish I could make Connor feel that relaxed. I close my eyes and shake my head. No time to feel sorry for myself. I should be thankful that he's recovering.

I open my eyes and look at Alpha Conan. " I believe you're right about this. I am sad that it takes something else to make him relaxed, but I'm happy for him. Anything he needs he can have. "

They smile at me. " You Amber, are one of the strongest women I know. " says Pamela as she walks into the room. She must have heard our conversation.

I smile at her. " Thank you. " I said. I know I'm not that strong, I just do what I feel needs to be done.

" I'm helping Connor again this afternoon at three. I want to see you tomorrow for your first therapy session. " said Pamela.

" That would be perfect. " I said back.

She nods and busies herself with making coffee. I look at my father. He seems a little confused. I then remembered that I haven't told him we were doing therapy as a way for them to pay us back for protecting them.

I proceed to tel him and he smiles at that. " I think that's an excellent idea. You both could benefit greatly from it. " he said.

" I sure hope so. " I say as Pamela comes and sits down with us. She looks at my father.

" Don't worry. They're in good hands. I won't let anything we talk about fall into the wrong hands. Their secrets are safe with me. " says Pamela.

I smile gratefully at her. That's when we look as another person walks into the room. This time it's Connor and he has the kitten perched on his shoulder.

He has a small look of pain. His head must still be hurting. I get up and go to the cabinet that holds the medicine and I get some Advil for him. I then fill a glass with water and hand it to him. He nods at me and takes the Advil before going to get himself some food.

I walk back and sit down to drink my coffee. They were smiling at me. " What?" I ask.

" I think it's cute how you will drop everything to take care of him. " says Pamela.

" Agreed. " both my father and Alpha Conan say.

I sigh and roll my eyes. Connor joins us and placed a little plate down. It held toast with some jelly spread across it. He also had a small bottle to feed the kitten. He started with her first. It was an adorable scene to watch as he tended to the little kitten.

Once he had finished feeding her Sasha ran down the steps shortly followed by her father. She immediately ran to Connor and gasped in awe when she saw that the kittens eyes were open.

" She's so cute. " she cried.

" Would you like to play with her while I eat?" Asks Connor.

" Yes yes, can I mom?" Cried Sasha.

" Only until he's done eating. You have to eat too. " says Pamela.

Sasha cheered and gently took the kitten from Connor's hand. He then busied himself with his food and coffee. He takes a look at me. Then he seems to notice how tired I must look.

" You never went back to sleep, did you?" He asks.

" Correction. I never did fall asleep at all last night. " I admit.

He frowns. " You'll take a nap today, won't you?" He asks.

I sigh, how can I say no to him when he asks me like that. I nod. " Yes. I'll take a nap after lunch. " I said.

His lips twitch up into a small smile. " Thank you. I'll handle any paperwork you need to fill out while you rest. " he said.

My eyes widen. " What, but I thought you were taking a break from all this to heal?" I say.

" Everyone needs help Amber. I may be taking a small break, but I'll still be here to help you when you need it. " Connor said.

I smile and will my eyes not to well up with happy tears. I love this man so much. " Thank you Connor. That means a lot to me. "

He nods and goes back to his food. I look at the others who were quietly listening as we talked. " Don't you guys have anything better to do then listening to our private conversations?!" I snap.

" Amber, sweetie. If you wanted that conversation to not be heard, you should have gone to a different room. " says my mother as she joins us at the table.

I sigh in defeat and Connor snickers. I then smile at his small laugh. My mother gets her coffee and then comes to join us again. Alpha Conan gets up and goes to make us all another pot of coffee.

We share a knowing grin because we know that'll be all gone as well in a few minutes. After we all have eaten and gotten ourselves a few cups of coffee, I get up and go to start cleaning the kitchen. Everyone gets up and starts to help.

I smile gratefully at them and we clean in silence. All of us just enjoying our time together. Once we're finished I head upstairs to change into a better outfit for today. Today I'm going with a pair of boot cut jeans, some nice black boots and one of Connor's old baggy shirts.

I then comb my hair and pull it back into a ponytail. Once I'm finished I put on some deodorant and start making my way back downstairs.

I am greeted by Connor and Sasha playing with the kitten that seems to be trying to stand on its little wobbly legs, which is honestly adorable.

Todays going to be a good day. I just know it.
