This pack may be diminutive relative to others, yet its members lacked for nothing. This pack had consistently been affluent; as she remembered, an entire section of the pack house was devoted to children’s entertainment. Movie theatres and gaming rooms equipped with every conceivable amenity, as she presumed. There was an entire room dedicated solely to various types and sizes of pinball machines.
This pack was affluent due to the business dealings of the human world it preserved across generations; it would have likely been an enjoyable environment to grow up in and belong to, had she been ordinary.
A petite woman entered upon hearing the door open, possessing dark hair and even darker eyes, and greeted her with, “Good morning, Luna.” It is pleasing to observe you conscious. I am Penny, your nurse for the morning shift. Brianna merely gazed at her; the woman was undoubtedly a wolf, yet she had directly met her gaze, completely disregarding the manner in which she had been addressed. Penny continued to gaze at her, and she recognised it as peculiar. The wolves never regarded her.
Dr. Daniel will arrive shortly. He requested that I draw blood from you to assess your haemoglobin levels. May I proceed?Brianna recognised her significant blood loss, acknowledged the woman, detected her scent as she approached and positioned herself beside the bed, identified her as an omega, drew blood from her other arm, and performed her task with speed and efficiency. Brianna was smiled at directly, and upon her completion, it was stated, “Dr. Daniel will be in to see you shortly.” Subsequently, the individual exited the room. It was peculiar.
Dr. Daniel arrived promptly. Approximately ten minutes later, he gazed directly at her as well. “Foolish girl, you ought not to confront vampires alone,” he admonished, shaking his head.
“I did not initiate it,” Brianna informed him, somewhat irritated by his remark; she was not so foolish. “I attempted to dissuade that woman, for your information,” she glared at him. “I am not entirely foolish, you know.”
He ceased walking and gazed at her, then sighed, “My apologies; I intended to lighten the situation, but I see it did not convey that way.” He approached the bed directly. You have lost a significant amount of blood; I have administered three units of whole blood since your arrival. What is your current emotional state?It appears he has adopted a fully professional demeanour now.
“Fine,” she remarked. “When will these be removed?”She enquired, gesturing towards the numerous ECG leads affixed to her.
“Allow me to produce a reading.” “If everything is satisfactory, I will remove them.” She awaited his action, received confirmation, and unfastened them herself, preferring to avoid his touch, as she was aware that Layla felt the same way. She was pleased to be able to rise from bed and ambulate.
I informed the Alpha of your awakening and improvement. He is expecting an Alpha to join the pack; otherwise, he would not have departed. He has remained at the hospital since your admission.
Everyone consistently informs her, as if they have been directed to do so, “My restrictions?”She anticipated their presence and would not be astonished to discover guards outside the room or a portion of his Alpha Unit. She was uncertain whether their intentions were to retain her presence or to safeguard Logan. She conjectured that it could indeed be both.
“None, Luna.” What are the reasons for restrictions on your freedom of movement within your own pack?He was frowning directly at her, then his gaze shifted to Logan. “However, your son’s wolf may pose a significant problem outside.”
“What?” What is the reason?She scowled in response.
“Did not acclimatise to the group whatsoever.” Based on my comprehension. <text”It may be prudent to confer with Helen, as she appears to possess a superior understanding of the matter.”
“Am I permitted to depart?”“She inquired.”
“You are permitted to discharge from the hospital,” he affirmed. “Merely…” his gaze shifted to Logan, who remained by the window. “Exercise caution regarding his wolf’s response.” Subsequently, the man exited the room.
Brianna’s gaze shifted to Logan as she pondered once more what transpired during her unconsciousness. “Logan?”She exited the bed and approached him, enquiring, “Is Rowan dissatisfied here?”She enquired of him.
“No,” he replied, shaking his head. “There are too many wolves. I wanted… I don’t know.” He gazed at her. “He sought to make them comprehend his nature, I believe he simply panicked.”
Brianna exhaled, acknowledging that this might indeed be her responsibility. He had never encountered wolves until a few weeks prior, and none of those experiences were positive. She was uncertain about how to address the situation and was unclear about her own presence here at this moment. This was neither her residence nor a place she intended to inhabit in the future.
A large trolley laden with food was brought in by a young boy, approximately 15 years old, who smiled at her. “The Alpha instructed me to present you with a selection of food, Luna,” he stated. She frowned at him, causing him to stiffen and subsequently lower his head in deference. “I apologise if I have erred, Luna.”
“You did not; I am merely perplexed.” “Do not bow to me,” she instructed him, observing the relief on his face before he exited the room. He appeared apprehensive about the possibility of facing repercussions.
Each wolf that entered the room gazed directly at her; they all perceived her presence. It was peculiar, to say the least; she shook her head and gestured for Logan to join her for a meal if he was hungry. She experienced hunger and thus…
She sat on her bed with Logan watching television, exhibiting no desire to venture outside, a sentiment also shared by Layla before she succumbed to slumber within her thoughts. She was fatigued from tending to her, while Logan appeared content sitting beside her on the bed. The room featured an en-suite bathroom and a suitably sized television with access to all the premium channels Logan desired.
His eyes brightened upon discovering his favourite channel; he reclined on the bed beside her, viewing an anime cartoon, when Stella and Nolan entered the room, both smiling at her. Stella approached her immediately and embraced her. “Express gratitude to the goddess Brianna.” You genuinely frightened me.
