Chapter 26 Jacob POV Goddess, I knew there was something off with Marcus but I just but it down to not liking him because he was been sniffing around Lilly, ever since she returned, like a pup in heat. The only explanation is that he is positioning himself for the next Alpha of our pack. I know there has been talk of moon madness around Alpha Drake for years but I guess Marcus was making his play. The discovery of Luna Lorna destroyed his all plans in one go. Fated mates are a sacred and cherished thing in our culture. They are rare and mystical and ......... .. I have been torturing mine for years, goddess what have I done. Oh Lilly, I'm so sorry. I will fix this, as soon as you fix Luna Lorna. I'm proud of my mate, she is in charge right now. "Jacob, are you listening!" I realise in my revelry that I have lost focus. Acknowledging her instructions, despite my reluctance to leave her unprotected, I dash off to the encampment in search of her equipment. Practically flying down to the ground floor, we shift and hasten to our quarry. I can't let her down. I can't let my alpha down. I can't let my Luna down. After everything they have both been through it cannot end like this. I spot the camp in the distance and push harder than I have ever before. There were warriors left to set up and remain hidden. I storm in, all of them on alert. "Our Luna is in danger, gather up every single one of doctor stantons crates with the medical brand on and get them all back to the clinic on the 3rd floor of the pack house, the life of your luna depends on you." They all instance stand and gather up crate after crate, as soon as three are gathered, a warrior sets off with them in his arms. Again and again. How many crates did my Lilly bring. I have never come with her on one of these tours with her before. "Hurry, every single crate!!! Or your Luna will die!!" They pick up the pace though I don't know how. I gather three crates and head back to the clinic. Goddess I hope this works, for all of us and the sake of our pack. Focusing on every step and smirk g everything returns to her intact, I race towards my mate. She needs me right now, to complete her tasks to the letter so she can do what nobody else can. Save our Luna. Climbing the last of the stairs I find a very different from the one I left. Crates line up along the far wall in numerical order. Two warriors are pulling specific items from them and placing them around Lorna's head on metal tables. My Lilly still positioned over Lorna. I slot my crates in the right places and return to Lilly's side. "What do you need?" I ask. I see her take a small relieved breath. "Crate 3, find a set of scrubs in your size, put them on and double glove, then help me get mine on. You're going to have to take over on applying pressure while I stitch" Getting my head around her request, I rush to do as she asks. "Jacob, hurry, my hands are cramping" she shouts and I understand the hast even more. Throwing the crate open, I find what I need and quickly dress. Then returning to her I get dressed and put on my gloves. Ready at her side. "Remove the pillow from behind her head, gently, flatten the bed. Good then position yourself behind her head. I'm going to guide your hands where I need them, once they are in place you cannot move unless under my instruction" "Of course, anything, do it" I reply. Completing her tasks. She guides my hand with hers and positions my fingers inside Lorna's neck. I can feel the warm wetness of her blood against my gloves. She positions my finger over what feels like a hole. I raise my eyebrow. "That's the hole I'm going to stitch, you need to plug it but not block it or she'll be brain dead. Understand?" I nod reverently, unable to reply with words. Lilly removes both her blood soaked hands, jumps from Lorna's chest and cracks on with setting everything up. Using the blood kit, I realise, she begins to siphon blood from Alpha Drake. That will weaken Drake. "Elites, guard this room, this floor, nobody gets past you, NOBODY!! Defend your Alpha and your Luna at all costs" "Yes beta" they accept at once and deploy into defensive positions. All except two standing nervously in scrubs. Lilly connects the other end to Lorna, cannulates both her arms and attaches a few machines to her. Slow beeping sounds in the room, drawing drakes attention. "She is still alive?" His voice cracks. "She is" Lilly replies, following it up with, Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ ƒind ηøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "But she won't be for much longer if we don't fix this hole. Both of you be quiet, not a word until I either speak to you or am finished". Ordinarily such a comment would had both us growling at the disrespect, however in this room she commanded it all. A small smile ghosted my lips, then remembering the situation I focus on my task. Quietly watching my mate, flit around and finally begin stitching up Lorna's aorta with the help of her two new nurses, obeying her every request. Goddess I hope this works. Two hours later, my hands are free and in fresh gloves, my alpha is awake, just, but looks extremely pale. I tilt his bed under Lilly's request and stop the siphon, I dispatch a warrior for more food and juice for all of us. Lilly is finishing up her stitches and then covering with a bandage. Luna's colouring looks better and the beeping on the machine is faster, which Lilly promises is a good thing. She is not awake yet, though again Lilly promises that's alright. She has given her drugs to help with her pain and to keep her asleep until she has healed enough to not damage her stitches by moving or talking. I help her off the bed and hold her in my arms, she collapses into me and i spend a few minutes just comforting my amazing mate. Hope jubilates inside me.
