The Pack's Doctor novel Chapter 29

Chapter 29: Prisoners Yara.

I race downstairs and realize the warriors on injured reserve from yesterday are already lined up waiting for me to release them.

I step up to the first one, but before I can ask anything, one of the warriors guarding the hospital yesterday hands me a breakfast wrap.

"What's this?"

"Alpha's orders. He says you haven't eaten in close to two days," he says.

"I didn't catch your name yesterday," I say, taking the wrap and biting into it. It's got eggs, bacon, ham and goddess knows what else, but it's delicious.

"It's Bradley, Luna," he says and I swallow quickly, turning to the first warrior.

"Bradley, are you the only one guarding the hospital today?" I ask, checking the warrior's injuries that have healed.

"Your wolf?" I ask the warrior.

"I'm good, Luna," the deeper voice of the wolf says.

"Go," I say, turning to the guard.

"No, Luna. Alpha has added more guards after what happened yesterday. They are already there making sure that no one gets into the hospital."

I nod, looking over the next warrior as Savannah comes rushing up.

"Luna, I.." she stops, sniffing the air. I know Warren's scent will be strong on me. I didn't have time to shower and he ejaculated on my back just before the alarm went up. Savannah smiles, but doesn't say anything about my scent.

"What do you need from me?" she asks instead.

"You check these four, I'll check the ones from yesterday," I say and once again, we split the group up.

"Bradley, how long have you been awake?"

"I just got up, Luna."

"Savannah?" I ask.

"Same."

"Do we know who is on at the hospital?" I ask, clearing two warriors to go fight.

I see Bradley's eyes go unfocused and I realize that I can now reach out too, except I'm not sure who to reach out to.

"Anna is on, Luna," he says.

I reach out in the mind link, looking for Anna, but connect with Warren.

'Yara, are you okay?' he asks, and I can tell he's fighting.

'Yes. Sorry, I'm looking for Anna.'

Warren does the mental equivalent of taking my hand and leading me to Anna, connecting me to her.

Thanks Warren. Be careful,' I say, holding on a moment longer to feel just how strong of a fighter he is. I can feel his pride at my assessment before I disconnect and connect with Anna.

'Anna?'

'Luna?' she asks, surprised.

'Yeah, how is Piper?'

'She's stable, Luna, but she's awake.'

'Okay. Savannah and I are checking the warriors here, and then we'll be there.'

I feel another wrap get placed in my hand and I absently thank the person as I continue to assess warriors while I eat.

'Luna, Beta wants to get in the fight. The warriors are refusing to let him leave.'

Tel him I'm on my way and if he gives you any grief about waiting, he'll answer to me.'

'Yes, Luna,' she says, and I can feel her smile through the link.

When we're done, I look up and Bradley is holding a third wrap. "Still hungry?"

"Not really, but who knows when I'll get to eat again. I'll take it for later."

We begin jogging over to the hospital and now that I have the pack link, I open my mind, carefully feeling around the pack to see who may or may not be injured. I'm pleased when I feel very few injuries.

"So you accepted our Alpha as yours, Luna?" Bradley asks as we jog. His eyes are everywhere as he guards me and Savannah.

"Yes, so if you need me, you can link me now."

"Good to know," he says, smiling as we get to the hospital.

I walk straight up to Charlie. "Luna, I need to be out there."

"Settle down, Charlie. The longer it takes for me to look you over, the longer it takes for you to get back out there if I agree."

I quickly flash a light in his eyes and this time he doesn't flinch. I look over his injuries and see that they are healing.
