THANE
| remained in the garden. Maybe this hadn't been the right tto tell her about Bella.
She was right.
While | didn’t love Bella anymore, | still cared, and it felt wrong.
At that moment, | felt like something was wrong. It had been pure instincts but | felt the need to check up on
Riley so I hurried back to the room we shared.
She might need her space, but she was pregnant, and she needed company, just in case anything happened...
She wasn’t in the room.
I moved to the bathroom, and there | saw the blood on the tile.
Damn.
| had been heading to the healers when | met Daisy halfway there.
“What's wrong?”
“The Luna is in labor.”
That's all it took, and | was sprinting to the healing room.
Riley had been placed on the bed; sweat coated her face - maybe it was tears. | walked to her holding her hands
in mine.
“You are going to be fine.” | assured her.
“It's not yet time; | don’t know why this is happening to me.”
“We will get through this together, okay.” | said to her, and she nodded.
| noticed her head had been wrapped with a bandage. | didn’t ask her about it; she was in enough stress, but
from the bloodstains on the bathroom floor, it was clear that she might have tripped.

“I'm sorry about all those things | said to you earlier in the garden.”

I kissed her knuckles.
“I am so afraid, Thane; | don’t want anything to happen to the baby...”
She gasped in pain.
“Do something,” | said to the healers.
“She's expressing contractions; it's normal.”
“I don’t want her in pain.”
At this point | didn’t care what they had to do.
Daisy walked in.
“Alpha, | need to speak to you.”
“I'm not leaving her.”
“It would only be a few minutes; she would be fine.”
| followed her out, but all | could think about was Riley in that room, in pain, and I couldn't do a damn thing
about it.
“Riley had a bit of an accident; we suspect she might have a slight concussion but that’s the least of our worries.
| had to tell you this alone because | didn’t want to give her any more anxiety than she already has. But the Luna
has only a fifty-fifty survival rate.”
“She will survive.’
There wasn’t just any other option; she had to.
Daisy nodded. “I'll advise you to wait outside; the healers might not be able to work under pressure.”
“I need to be there with her.”
“I wouldn't advise that, Alpha; we are going to do our very best.” She promised.
| waited outside, but it took everything into do that. | heard her cries.
“Make it stop,” she pleaded as the healers forced her to ‘push’.
The minutes drew on, and the hours felt more like days; my patience was running
