THE ALPHA’S BROKEN LUNA

Hardin’S POV

TWO HOURS LATER.

I have been walking helter-skelter about the corridor like a mad man.

I’m worried.

The last time Reign was in there, I don’t like the news that the doctor brought. She had actually died, before waking up again.

I just hope that’s not the case this time around. She can’t just keep dying and resurrecting, it’s just not right.

“She’s going to be fine Alpha Hardin” Griffin, the guard I came with encourages.

“How are you so sure Griffin?”

“I just know she’ll be fine. Our Luna is a strong girl. A mere fever can cause any harm to her” He says confidently and I actually smile. Not because he juts said she’ll be fine, but because he called her their Luna.

That means Miguel made the announcement and they all heard it right. Now it’s only left from me to tame her, and when I do, I’ll marry her and we’ll be the Alpha and Luna we are supposed to be.

“Thanks for the word Griffin”

“Any time Alpha”

I see a doctor walking towards us and I don’t wait for him to reach, I walk over to him with the most worried look on my face.

The last thing I want is to hear that she died before waking up again.

“Doctor, how is Reign?” I ask worried and he smiles.

“Calm down Alpha, Luna is doing just fine, it was just a high fever. We already gave her injections to subside the fever, she’ll be fine soon” He explains and I smile.

He called her Luna too.

They all actually got the news clearly.

“Can you…” I’m about to ask if he can take me to her ward, then I remember that her pheromone can do the trick. I just smile and walk past him and follow the sweet smell of her pheromone and it no doubt leads me to her ward. Once I get to the door, I open it and take calculated steps into the room, making sure not to make any noise that will wake her up.

As I walk closer to her bed, I swallow dryly when my eyes fall on the side of her neck. The only thing I can imagine is sinking my canines in there and marking her as mine. I would so much love to do that right here, but I can’t.

As it is now, our relationship is already very strained and I don’t want to complicated things any further by marking her against her will. I can’t afford to make her hate me more.

I shake off the thought of marking her and sit by her side on the bed.

I gently caress her soft delicate cheeks and smile. It’s either she’s scolding me or striking all my nerves. What exactly am I going to do with her?

The doctor walks in over to us and I snap my head up to look at him.

“You said she’s fine right?”

“Yeah, the fever has subsided.”

“That means I can take her back home, right?”

“Yes you can”

“Good, are there any drugs for her to take?”

“Here they are Alpha” He says as he hands me a little pack of drugs. I rise on my feet and scoop Reign into my arms.

“Thank you very much Doctor”

“It was a pleasure Alpha Hardin” He says with a slight bow and I walk out of the ward.

Once we get back home, I take Reign straight into me bedroom.

I’m not letting her spend this night out of my sight. I don’t mind her throwing a tantrum the next morning when she wakes up and finds herself in my bed.

Another night of cuddling Reign in my arms.

Thank you Moon goddess.

The next morning, I wake up early and take my shower so I can start with some paper work at the office. The moment I sit on my office chair to start working, my office door creaks open and a very anxious looking Miguel walks in.

I wonder what’s making him look so anxious.

“What happened?” He asks furiously.

“Well, good morning to you too” I greet sarcastically and he rolls his eyes as he takes the seat in front of my desk.

“Griffin told me what happened”

“Is that so?”

“Why didn’t you call me?”

“Well, I figured you would be … you know, doing naughty stuff with … ugh! I hate having to say such about my sister, just forget it”

“How’s she?” He asks concerned and I smile.

“I touched her this morning and her temperature was normal, so yeah, she’s doing alright”

“That’s nice to hear”

“Indeed it is, you have no idea how much I panicked when I met her totally drenched and hot last night. I was this…” I say forming a little space between my index finger and thumb to demonstrate the closeness. “… close to losing my sanity. That is one of the worst things I have had to go through in my life.”

“I feel you man, I know what it means to look at your mate in such a condition and not know what to do to help her”

“I think I’m going to hire a private doctor. I don’t ever want to go through what I went through last night. I swear”

“If that’s what you need to do, then do it” He encourages and I just nod and smile. “Whet’s with foolish smile?” He asks with an annoyed look.

“She’s right there in my bedroom, on my bed. She’s definitely going to throw a tantrum when she wakes up and finds out where she is.”

“You two are just so stubborn and meant for each other, I rest my case!”

“The craziest thought crossed my mind back there at the hospital”

“What thought?”

“She was lying on that hospital bad, looking so nice and innocent and … I just wanted to mark her, claim her as mine”

“No you did not!”

“Yeah, I want wanted to, but I know I shouldn’t so I didn’t, if at all what I’m saying makes any sense.”

“It… it makes sense but you having these thoughts at this very critical moment, I really don’t think it’s a good idea”

“Me too, that’s why I immediately dismissed the thought. The last thing I want is for Reign to hate me more. Marking her is supposed to make our mate bond stronger, not otherwise”

“I’m happy you know that. Just give it some more time”

“I’m going to give it all the time in the world.”

“Cool” he says nodding.

“I also got to realize that you made that announcement properly yesterday. I was a bit surprised to hear the few people we met call her Luna and I was elated. Thanks for making sure they all got the news”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“You and I know that I would have made this announcement err long if it were entirely up to me. Reign is our Luna and it’s only right that we all start giving her the respect she deserves as our Luna”

“Exactly”

“Alright then” he says as he rises from his seat. “I have to be on my way now, make sure Kylie and Melissa come early for training”

“I will do just … wait, did Megan happen to tell you what she discussed with Reign yesterday?”

“Do you honestly that cousin of yours will tell me?” He asks with a creased brow and I just close, my eyes and exhale heavily.

“No” I say shaking my head.

“I’m glad you very we know the kind if cousin you have. But not to worry, I don’t think she painted you red. Megan very well knows when to be savage and when to not be savage”

“I guess that’s my only ray of hope right now.”

“The only ? one bro” He says as he makes his way out of the office.

Melissa and Kylie won’t stop fighting each other.

Megan frustrates me all the time with her very unpredictable nature.

Reign does nothing but strike all my nerves every single time.

The women in my life will be the end of me!
