Alpha King Chases Abandoned Luna

Relief washed over me when Dr. Bennett confirmed that Grandmother wasn't in serious

danger. Her collapse had terrified me more than I cared to admit. Beside me, I noticed Olivia's

shoulders slump as tension drained from her body.

The sudden release of pressure made her sway slightly. Without thinking, I reached out to

steady her, my hand hovering near her elbow.

She flinched away as if burned, her emerald eyes flashing with rejection. "Don't touch me."

Before I could respond, she rushed toward the gurney where the medical staff was wheeling

Grandmother from the emergency room. The elderly woman looked frail against the white

sheets, her usually commanding presence diminished by illness.

Olivia reached Grandmother's side, her steps hurried but careful. She gently took the

Matriarch's hand, whispering words I couldn't hear. The tenderness in her gesture made my

chest tighten with an emotion I couldn't name.

Dr. Fletcher approached me, his expression professional. "We're moving her to the private

wing. You should prepare for a potentially lengthy recovery period."

I nodded, watching as they wheeled my grandmother away, Olivia walking alongside, never

letting go of the elderly woman's hand.
