NovelEnglishChapter 0019 Alora POV I'm walking more and more unaided.
My strength is coming back tobit by bit. I've still not got much of an appetite, my stomach having shrunk from not eating for so long.
I was eating pathetic portions every 2 hours to rebuild my stomach. But even then it was proving challenging. It hurt to use muscles I hadn't used for years. According to the doctors this was the best plan of action, as was my phyand speech therapy.
Coming back from the brink of death has its prices and I was paying them.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThan was there when I opened my eyes, his hands clutching on to my cheeks as his lips caressed my skin leaving tingles all over my face. His scent enveloping aroundinstantly, comfortingwhen I was confused and weak. He refused to leavethat night, climbing into my hospital bed and holdingas I slept. Refusing to leave the next day even when the doctor's ordered it. Informing them that he was alpha and they were meant to follow his orders. He flew off the handle a little but he could be excused, his emotions were all over the place. Just as were mine.
But he hadn't calmed and things were different...
Than seemed different...on edge. I never expected to feel the pull of the mate bond with him after what I did, but then again I never expected to wake up.
I was in the alpha hnow, the female beta Freya attending to my every need. Than was alpha now. I've missed so much.
I missed his alpha ceremony, his Father and Mother had retired and moved out of pack grounds. He did it all alone...withoutby his side.
That is something I can't make up for.
Than's mother is meant to be here today but she is delayed. She made sure to give a passing dig on the phone tothough, something had cup....something that she had to sort out as the occasional acting luna.
Than was currently away on business, something important that couldn't walt. He hadn't even letleave the house yet since being discharged from the hospital. I was desperate to see pack members, hear of their needs. See how I can help them. But how can I heal my position amongst the pack if I can't see them.
I was slowly walking down the stairs heading towards Than's office. I wanted to start catching up on pack affairs, anything to keep boredom at bay during his absence. Even just reading up on pack births since.. what happened.
I walk into Than's office to find even technology has advanced in my absence from the walking living. I just glare at the computer before me, not even knowing where the on button is.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm+35 BONUS I move on to look through Than's filing cabto find records of new births that, judging by their birth dates, were no longer new borns.
They will now be walking around the pack and even attending preschool.
I've missed so much.
I try not to think back, but the flashbacks have been returning. The mental scar I'll carry for a lifetime. The pain of each mouthful, each forced swallow. My own wolf screaming atto stop, she was too young... she didn't have the strength to overpowerback then I could feel her strength also regaining and I've been praying to the moon goddess that she will showmercy when the tcomes.
That my wolf will forgivefor stealing her growing years.
Pulling the baby records from out of the cabI sit down to finish reading the folder in comfort.
Inquisitive, I pull open the top desk drawer to find the usual desk necessities. A calculator, scissors, pens.
A photo frame.....
A photo frof Than andI pull it out to glance upon our younger years together, only to find that I'm not much younger at all.
