Chapter 0354

When I wake the next morning, I leave Eli sleeping in bed and I head downstairs. to check on the injured and find out how many awoke overnight. No one came looking for me, so I’m hopeful that everyone is either still resting quietly or has awakened.

When I get to the kitchen, I see several omegas that volunteered to stay with the injured overnight. I find out that all but five of the injured are awake. Many ate some soup when they woke and are now getting ready to come down to join the pack in the dining room for breakfast. I’m about to go check on the ones that

groom for breakfast. I’m about to go haven’t woken yet when Noah and Dr. Phillips walk in, both looking sleepy but happy with fresh mate marks on their necks.

I smile at them. “Good morning. It looks like you both had a good night last night.” I say, smiling at them. Being newly mated myself, I understand the feeling perfectly. I reach my hand out to Dr. Phillips as she blushes softly. “I’m Grace and you must be Dr. Phillips.”

She shakes my hand. “Please, call me Sirona, Luna. It’s a pleasure to meet you. Noah has told me what you and Alpha Eli are trying to do with this pack. I would be thrilled to be a part of something so exciting.”

I look at Noah, smiling. “She’s perfect!” I say, already knowing his response.

“Yes, she is.” He says, kissing the side of her head.

“I know you two probably don’t want to be separated so quickly, but could I possibly steal you away Sirona. There are five of our pack members that have not yet awakened, and I’d like to check on them.”

“Of course, let me grab my bag.” She says before running back upstairs.

Noah watches her until she turns and walks out of his sight. He turns to me, and I can’t help the pleased smirk on my face.

“Luna, is Alpha awake yet? I have an answer for him.”

“Do you? And is this answer going to make your Alpha and Luna happy, Noah?” I ask teasing him.

He smiles brightly. “I believe it will, Luna.”

“Good, then you can join me in Carlos’s office.” Eli says coming up behind me.

I turn, rushing to him. “You should have woken me, baby.” He says softly. He’s still limping a bit, but he wraps his arms around me.

“You were still sleeping and I wanted to check on everyone. Sirona, that’s Dr. Phillips and I are going to see the five that haven’t yet woken up. Most of the rest have come down for breakfast. You and Noah should join them after you talk. Don’t overdo it, Alpha.” I tell him as Sirona comes down with her bag. “We’ll meet you in the dining room when we’re done.”

By the time we check on the warriors that are still unconscious, two have woken. For the other three, I rotate the person sitting with them, letting the person who watched them overnight get some sleep.

“We’re very excited to have you in our pack, Sirona. I know it’s probably a lot for someone who has been in a well–run, happy pack to take on, but we plan to make this place a home for everyone that needs one.”

“Honestly, being a doctor, I’ve never run from a challenge. I actually prefer it, so this is perfect for me. And I hear that the pack hospital is still in ruins which gives me a chance to rebuild it the way I want it rebuilt.” She turns and looks at me. That is, if you and Alpha agree.”

I laugh. “I don’t know the first thing about supernatural medicine and I’m sure Eli doesn’t either, so it’s all yours. Whatever you want or need, let us know. It may be slow getting there, but we will get there. We also have two medical students here, so you won’t be completely alone. You’ll have to assess their skill set for yourself, but at least you’ll have some help.”

We walk into the dining room, and I see Amber sitting with Eli, Noah and Carlos. As I watch, Eli and Noah’s noses go up in the air before they both rise out of their seats and turn toward us. Eli pulls me into an embrace before pulling out a chair for me.

“Have something to eat, Grace. Give me an update on our injured.”

Sirona and I update everyone on the status of our pack members. “I called Alpha Rik this morning. The two that he took to his pack are still unconscious.” Carlos says. I watch as Amber looks at him, but doesn’t say anything, looking back down at her plate. I’m not sure if she’s quiet or if there is something more going on here.

“Amber, how did you settle in last night? I apologize for not coming back to check on you and your baby.”

“Oh, you have a baby?” Sirona asks. “How old?”

“She’s just one month old.” She says quietly, looking at Carlos through her lashes. Okay, so that has yet to be resolved. “And thank you Luna, I did settle in, and we were able to sleep some.”
