Chapter 25 Lilly POV Goddess what has Gamma Marcus done!!!! Why has he done this?! Oh goddess is he making a play for Alpha. Under his rule the pack would be decimated. Sod that!! She can't die. I can't let her die. I would be killing my Alpha and my pack if I let her go. I jump into action, applying pressure to the wound. Trying to slow some of the flow while I look at what that i***t damaged. I need to prioritise what to fix first. Thick Blood is pouring through my fingers, I need to angle my pressure to the source. His claw has nicked Lorna's aorta but he didn't manage to slice all the way through. That's the best news I could have hoped for. She's still losing too much blood. I plug the hole, activating a timer on my watch. I am cutting off the blood supply to her brain, I have limited time to prevent oxygen starvation. I need to get her to the pack hospital. I don't have the equipment to hand to perform surgery. "Get me a stretcher, NOW!" "Alert the pack hospital, critical patient incoming, prep surgery and get me some universal donors for blood" "Let's move" An old style gurney arrives and I and some warriors help my Luna on to it, realising I can't run beside her and keep pressure, I jump in top of her, straddling her waist and continue my pressure. Watching the time on my watch, desperate not to cause more damage. "GO GO GO!" One of the warriors informs me there is no hospital in the pack lands but merely a clinic, I instruct him to take us there. How does a pack this size function without a hospital. We rush into an under resourced clinic, my heart sinks. The equipment I need may not be here. I turn to Jacob. Who is right behind me ready to help me off my Luna. He assists me down while I read off my needs. "The encampment is just off towards the woods, take some warriors, I need all of my medical supplies. Are you listening Jacob!!, every single bandage, crate, everything with my insignia on. If you leave anything behind, your Luna will die! Go, now and hurry" I see the look in his eyes, he is hesitant to leave me. Goddess knows that's something new. "NOW!!" I bellow, a small smile cracks Jacob's face and the warriors and he dash from the room. A few have remained, some dealing with Marcus, and then my Alpha. At my luna's side, after dealing with idiotic imitations of doctors, he takes her hand in his and is devoted to her in her time of need. I know he is waiting for me to speak to him but I don't have anything to say until I have my equipment to operate. That's what she needs. I put my Alpha to the back of my mind and focus on my Luna. She needs every skill I have to save her. I relax some of the pressure and allow blood to flow again, she will lose some more blood but her brain will also get some much needed oxygen. I take this chance to have another look at the damage. It's a long incision, maybe three inches in length and an inch deep. It's a lot of damage where I don't want any. Without looking up, I shout. "How are my donors coming???? She needs blood!" "Sorry doc...." the warrior starts to reply looking embarrassed, I already know he hasn't done what I asked. i***t! Does he not realise what is at stake, The warrior is interrupted by his Alpha. "Hook me up, she's my mate, our blood will help" I can see in his eyes, he needs to do this, to try and help his mate. My own wolf, Shera, is trying to speak to me at that request. Let him do this Lilly, trust me, it will help our Luna. Never being one to dismiss my wolf when she tries to point me to a different course of action. "Warriors, pull another bed alongside. Alpha get cleaned up, I need your arm sterile. Get some iron heavy food in the kitchen, bring it for your Alpha". They dash off at great speed to heed my order. I lower my tone, "I need a lot of blood, it will weaken you when she needs your strength to protect her, are you sure?" He looks at me, appreciating my tone. "Take it all if it will save her" his tone tells me how this is not a flippant comment but an order from my alpha. I nod and get back to work.

The warriors return with plates of food and drink for Alpha Drake, he sits on the bed, puts his feet up, drops the side of the bed and takes hold of his mates hand again. Jacob is on his way back. Shera informs me. Good in need my kit now. "Warriors, your beta and elites are returning with my equipment, when they bring the crates in here I need everything I am about to list off in the order I list it. Ready?" "Yes doctor" "Crate 6, blood kit. Crate 4, cannulation kit. Crate 15, surgical kit. Crate 3, scrubs kit 4. Crate 3, sterile kit. Crate 9, 2 suture kits. Crate 11, bandages kit 7, 3 and 2. I need everything setting up around me on sterile tables and leave it all in the packets. The blood kit I need on Alphas abdomen and then I need both of you to direct all the portable lights in the room to your Luna's neck. Finally glove up, both of you, congratulations you just got a field promotion" They briefly paused, paled and then following a growl from both me and, more importantly, Alpha Drake, they set off on the tasks I had set. I could feel my Lunas pulse and her breathing rate from my position, they both existed.... just, but they were both there. As long as they both remained I would not stop trying to heal her. I just hoped that her wolf and the Alphas blood would be enough to tip the scales in our favour.
