Chapter Seven – Calling in the Reinforcements
Carlisle POV
I knew it was a weekend and I knew that we had a therapy session scheduled for the next week but I couldn't wait any longer to deal with this. I was sure my sons were having the same number if not more problems than me and I wanted to get this fixed and fast. The therapist had seemed like a reasonable man before so I figured that he would at least tell me the key to fixing all this. Or at least I hoped he would.
His secretary answered the phone and I asked politely to speak to the doctor.
He answered the phone and said "ah, Carlisle, can't say I'm surprised to hear from you."
"So, you know why I'm calling?"
"Every single time I use this particular method of therapy, I generally get a phone call within the next 24 hours."
"So, can you get rid of this therapy? I mean I'm sure that my family would be willing to try anything as long as we got our normal wives back."
"No. Carlisle, in my years of practice, I have learned how effective this is, especially in covens of this size. You guys need to figure out the key to reversing it on your own…the other covens have managed it before you, and you guys seem pretty smart."
"The wrong wives are throwing themselves at the wrong husbands because of this personality switcheroo…I want this fixed."
The doctor said "really? That's a new reaction…it normally isn't this extreme…of course not many vampires are married so I haven't really tried this on married couples before…but…"
I sensed an opening and went for it when I said, "So you'll switch them back?"
"Of course not."
"Why not?"
"You need to figure it out on your own. I have faith in you and your family Carlisle. Try something else…it's only been less than 12 hours since this started taking control…you haven't exhausted all your options yet, I'm sure of that."
I sighed as I said good bye to him. I called Jake's cell phone and said "tell me you have some good news."
Jake chuckled heartily and said "it's that bad there huh?"
"I just kissed Rosalie."
Jake abruptly stopped laughing and said "wow, it really is bad…unfortunately, I don't know if this lead is going to pan out, but we are getting close to someone who might have some more answers for us. Nessie and I are moving as fast as we can."
"Call me the second you find something out from this someone ok?"
"Absolutely Gramps!"
I smiled at Jake calling me Gramps, and suddenly my door burst open to show my three sons looking very angry.
"Hey, I was just about to call you all in."
"The old plan didn't work Carlisle." Edward stated seriously.
"I'm aware of that Edward, I have a new idea, remember when you asked if we were going with the women who looked like or acted like our wives?"
The guys all nodded, trying to figure out where I was going with this.
"Well, let's go with the ones who act like our wives and see if that fixes things. The doctor must have done this for a reason."
We all got up and hoped that this would work as we left my office to hopefully go find our new wives.
