Father is hurting!

The Thornton's Household

Alpha Theodore Claude Thornton

"This is the report you requested, the details of the hospital visit, and the exact date and time of birth. I hope it helps." Mike handed over the thin file to his boss.

Theo took the file, looked over the contents, and thought, 'Oh, this helps a lot.' He looked at Mike. "Thank you, Mike, for getting back to me."

And just as he suspected, his Athalia was already pregnant at the time of the conference, and he chose to attend the conference instead of going to Athalia.

Theo waited for Mike to leave and rose abruptly from his chair behind the desk as soon as he did, causing it to fall backward.

Theo's hands formed a fist, his muscles bulged beneath his short-sleeved shirt, and he made a guttural sound, clearing all the contents on his desk.

The loud noise of everything falling to the ground reverberated through the office space. *Clatter, Clang.
