Luna Awake

Nova POV:

Forcing my eyes open has me blinking slowly as they adjust to the brightness of the surroundings,

“ahhh” I groan trying to lift my hand to cover my eyes but having it drop

back down to my side with a thump.

“Nova” I hear Jaxs voice say in relief. “Laurence close the blinds please.” Feeling his

hands embrace mine as tingles erupt on my skin from his contact I breath in his scent and feel it warm

my b*dy.

“Drink please” I croak as Jax comes into focus in front of me. Feeling a straw poke

my lips I open my mouth sipping greedily as I let the cool liquid sooth my throat.

“Is everyone ok?” I ask as I focus on Jax.

“Everyb*dy is fine Nova..thanks to you” he says his deep voice soothing my worried thoughts. “We are

home and you’re in the pack hospital. You used too much energy

and collapsed.”

“Thank the Goddess” I breath. “The warriors?”

“Still sleeping upstairs, they were given something that put them to sleep but apart from that they had

no harm caused to them” Jax says calmly.

“Why are they still sleeping?” I ask confused.

“The doctor believed it best for them to sleep it off, it was not causing them any harm “Laurence says

as he comes into focus next to Jax. “You gave us a scare there Luna” he says with a small smile.

“Sorry” I say with a slight wince.

“Are you in pain?” Jax asks picking up on my discomfort.

Shaking my head slightly I moan from the movement and catch his disbelieving look, “Maybe a bit. I

have a pounding headache and I feel like I’ve been hit by a bus.”

“That’s to be expected, you need to rest love” he says quietly dropping me a k*ss on my forehead.

Luna Awake

“I want to go home” I murmur.

“Let’s speak to a doctor first. I’m sure if you promise to rest and let us look after your for the time being

you can go home. Laurence can you let them know our Luna is awake?” Jax says without taking his

eyes off of me.

“Of course Alpha” I hear Laurence say before he slips from the room quietly.

“f**k Nova, you had my heart racing for a while there” Jax says with a sad smile as he

takes a seat on the bed next to me.

“I’m sorry I didn’t mean to worry you” I whisper.

“Don’t apologise” he says sternly. “What you did was nothing short of incredible, I’ve

never seen that much power before in anyone.” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

“We used the strength of the Moon Goddess” I hear Kia say to us with a yawn as she stretches in my

mind. “A time of great need.”

“You did what?” Jax says in shock. “That explains a lot.”

“Yeah” I sigh stretching my muscles gently. “I don’t know how.”

“What matters is everyone is ok” Kia says to me.

Hearing the door reopen Laurence walks into the room with a smile followed closely by a nurse. “Luna

how lovely to see you awake” she says warmly before coming over to introduce herself. “I’m Natasha

and I’m just going to have a quick check of your

vitals. We had you on an IV drip and you definitely have some more colour in you

then

you did when you arrived.”

“Thank you” I say politely as her small hands begin to efficiently check over me. Leaving her to work in

peace for a few moments I hold onto Jax tightly needing the

comfort of the mate bond.

“You are recovering well” Natasha says with a reassuring smile. “Our Beta says you

are keen to go home and I’m happy to release you. But you have to promise to rest and take it easy for

the next 48 hours. Light movement is ok just make sure you eat well and get plenty of sleep. Alpha you

heard that yes?”

“Loud and clear, I’ll make sure Nova rests” he says as he stands beside me. “Laurence

can take us back and we can go to the suite love.”

Luna Awake

“Thank you Natasha” I say softly as she bows her head and leaves the room as quietly

as she came. “Get me out of here” I say with a slight laugh as Jaz helps me stand.

“I’ll go get the car ready while you get dressed” Laurence says before leaving.

“How’s dad?” I ask quietly as Jax helps me into a loose dress,

“He’s fine Nova, let’s discuss it when we are back. I promise to fill you in on everything “Jax says

looking at me with a smile. “First I want to see you in our bed and maybe Zeus will be less on edge

then”

“He’s been worried huly?” I ask with concern.

“You have no idea” dax says with a little laugh Running a hand through his hair he

pulls me in close for a soft embrace, “but he’s much better now after hearing your

voice and Kia”

“I’m really sorry for worrying you Jax” I whisper

Hearing a low grumble in his chest at my apology he pulls away, “I want that to be the

last time I hear you apologise..got it?”

“Got it” I whisper smiling. Picking up the bag off of the bed which Lassume has some

of my things in he quickly picks me up to carry me bridal style.

“I can walk” I lightly protest.

“Let me” he says quietly, “Zeus and I need to know you’re recovering as best you can.”

Kissing his shoulder softly I nestle my head into his neck as he walks us out of the

hospital. Lowering me gently into the car he shuts the door before jogging round and

sliding in beside me.

“Let’s go” he says to Laurence before he pulls out and begins the short drive to the pack house. “Do

you mind bringing the bag up and asking for some food and drinks

to be brought up?” Jax asks Laurence as we pull up and he walks round to lift me out.

once again.

“Already done” Laurence says with a smile. “I’ll go grab everything and shall I meet

you up in your room once you’re settled?”

“Yes please” Jax says as he cradles me close. “We need to talk to you about some

things” he explains as I look at him questioningly. Feeling me tense in his arms he

quickly continues. “it’s nothing you need to worry about. But I’d rather make you

aware than not broach the subject. Your dad will be coming by later as well, he’s just taking some time

to himself after what happened.”

“Have you spoken to Luca and Sophie?” I ask softly.

“I have, and I’m under strict instruction to keep them updated hourly and once you’re up to it you have

to call them” he says with a smirk. “Quite impressive a Beta having the balls to tell me what to do.”

“He’s a good brother” I smirk up at him as he nods in agreement.

“I also asked Sophie to speak to your father, I think he needed some family comfort” Jax says quietly as

he opens our suite door and walks me over to the bed.

“I’m worried about him” I admit. “Where is Johnathon?”

“Travelling back from seeing Sophie, he’ll be back within the hour” he says as he pulls the duvet up and

sits next to me, tucking me into his side. Feeling my eyes grow heavy I fight to keep myself awake,

“sleep love. I’ll ask Laurence to come by in an hour and we can have some food. I’ll stay right here” he

murmurs his warm breath

fanning my head.

With those words my lids flutter shut and I welcome the darkness once again.
