“Real funny, jerk!” she calls back, making me snicker.

It took me a good twenty minutes to work out how to undo the stroller; I even threw it in frustration, but it seemed to work as it unfolded. Sometimes brute force is required. Walking into the store, I find the aisle designated for hygiene products. Stopping in front of it, I see an entire wall of them.
Picking one up, I stare at it. Why are there so many options? Scratching my head, I pull my phone from my pocket and dial Elena’s number. It rings out, and she doesn’t answer.
“She might have left it in the car last night. Try Eli!” Khan tells me.
“What would he know about feminine products?”
“Well, you got a better idea?” I growl, knowing he is right, and the checkout boy looks pretty clueless, so no point asking him. He looks like he barely has two brain cells to rub together.
Dialing Eli’s number, he answers after a few rings. “Alpha,” he answers when I hear the phone beep in my ear, making me look at the screen. He opened a video call. Sighing, I answer it with his face popping up on the screen.
Chapter Sixteen
“What’s up?”
“Do you know anything about pads?” I ask him.
“Pads?”
“You know pads, period pads?” Eli blinks at me.
“Are you having an identity crisis? Like I’m full support, but shouldn’t pads wait until after the sex change?” What the fuck is he talking about? He keeps rambling.
“I’m pretty sure you still won’t get your periods even with one,” he looks at the screen thoughtfully and I raise an eyebrow at him.
“But this explains so much, your mood swings, your growing hunger. Alpha side effect? Or the hormone replacements?”
“Not for me, you idiot! For Elena!”
“Isn’t she breastfeeding?” Eli asks. Huh, what is it with breastfeeding and periods? I growl and he jumps.
“Fine, fine, turn the camera around. What are the options?” I turn the camera around, showing him, and he whistles.
“Wow! Okay, all this for a bleeding snatch, okay I can work with this! What size is she?” Eli asks. Huh? Size, what does he mean? There are sizes?
“What do you mean?”
“You know, is she a loosey-goosey, a tighty—” I snarl at him.
“You did not just ask me that!”
“I’m only trying to help!”
“Hang on, I will ask one of the guys!” he says.
“Slater! Come here!” Eli calls out. I glance around to find the cashier boy watching me, curiously.
“What’s up!” I hear called back in the background, and I pinch the bridge of my nose.
“We got a bleeder! Just get over here!” Eli calls out and I growl. Does he have to alert the entire world to the fact Elena has her period?
“You know anything about pads?” Eli asks him.
“You're bleeding? Where?” Slater asks.
