SELENE'S POV I had been standing there, staring into space as I finished arranging the herbs in the back room.Okay, I could finally leave.I tucked my hands into my pockets as I walked back into the med bay, nodding to the other medics on night shift as I relayed orders to them.“Make sure to monitor them all” My gaze swept across the room, resting on the empty corner.My brows furrowed and I nodded to the empty space where the bed had been. “Where's patient 32?” I asked the young red haired girl who was sitting a few feet away from me, exhaustion in her posture.She followed my gaze, a shudder coursing through her. “Medic Seraphina had him wheeled out a few minutes ago to the emergency room. She didn't want to put him here with the other patients”“Makes sense” Emelia muttered in my head, her presence suddenly jerking me back to reality.A sudden urge to check on this emergency room filled me but I pushed it down. I needed to go to bed. “Okay, Benita. Tell me if anything comes up a
SELENE'S POV This was utter chaos and I felt sick to my stomach.“Nyx! Don't just stand there! Hold him” Seraphina yelled at me, her eyes wide as she gestured to the warrior frothing at the mouth violently.Shit shit.It had been two hours. Just two hours since I had brought in that man to the already filled med bay and I was already drained out of my soul. For Seraphina, it seemed almost easy. Damn, the old woman was a hard nut to crack.She had been hopping from one bed side to the other and making sure all the patients were stable when suddenly this man started convulsing and I was feeling sick as I watched him trash about.As soon as I gripped his arm, I held him down and stared at her with fear in my eyes. “What's wrong with him? The Soulfern herb stabled the others from fits. What's wrong with him?” I asked, sweat beading down my head.There were 7 other medics here who were helps and taking orders from us but the fear in their eyes as they stood a good feet away from the trash
SELENE'S POV My lips parted and I wondered what to say for a spilt second before Seraphina beside me spoke up, her voice expressionless. “Can we help you?”Ronan didn't tear his gaze away from me. “No, I'm certain your daughter can help though. You should be here, is that right? The meeting is far more important but a member of my pack in the quarantine room is exhibiting…strange symptoms, I want him checked if you please” He said, his expression bland.Oh.I looked over at Seraphina who looked at me. “Check my bag at the cart in front. Get the Somnaris bloom and administer it to him. Take him to the med bay and give him a Plith herb if he foams and I'll take it from there” She instructed while I tried to grab what she was saying.“Okay” I muttered, silently cursing because I didn't even know what flower she was talking about.I should learn more but there was no time now. I couldn't check the fucking handbook.With a slight twitch of my lips in an attempt at a smile to Ronan who did
SELENE'S POV Davis kept that stupid smile on his face as he took my hand in his, gripping it firmlyㅡIf only he knew how much I wanted to knock it off his faceㅡ then he pulled his hand away and looked at Ronan who was still staring at me. “Medic Nyx Sullivan?” Ronan asked, his voice snapping me out of my daze as I whipped my neck to look at him. “Yes” I straightened up. He folded his arms, his muscles flexing visibly under his shirt. “That doesn't explain how you know my name” Davis looked between the both of us with a confused expression clouding his face. “You two know each other? I thought Medic Nyx was not from this plaㅡ” “ㅡWhich is why I would want her to explain how she knows who I am” Ronan cut him off, his brows furrowed together and his eyes darkening. This was not how I planned my arrival back into my pack. Shit. Needed to find a way to worm my way out of this one. “I…overheard your name from the emissary sent to us when I asked him on the way here” I blurted o
SELENE'S POV“We're almost there,” Seraphina, who was ahead of me on her horse with the emissary, who I recognized as Brian, rode beside her.I had fallen behind as I stared pointedly at Brian's back. It was true. He had not recognized me.Good.We had been riding for a whole day now and I calculated about an hour's more ride before we would get to our destination.“Don't screw it up, and don't in any way make him know you're the one,” Emelia warned in my head, but I was past words like that.“Emelia, I'm gonna ask you a quick one,” I said back to her whilst grabbing a water skin from the side of my horse to drink from.“What is it?” She asked impatiently, her words sincerely grating on my nerves.“How stupid do you think I am on a scale of one to ten?” I asked her.She was silent for a moment but I could feel her still there in my consciousness. “An eleven,” She said like it was a no-brainer.Wow.“I hate you” I whispered, lightly kicking the sides of the horse so we could keep movin
SELENE'S POV “You have 3 months, don't waste it. Your original body has been preserved… It is now somewhere away from Blackthorne Vale aㅡ” I woke up with a start, my body drenched in sweat as I looked around me, breathing heavily. A woman with slightly graying hair was leaning over me, but she was startled as I suddenly sat up, and she fell on her butt. The house was cozy and warm, the scent of herbs and wood filling the room. Where the fuck was I? I looked around me, wondering how I had ended up; I was right in the lake when I heard that voiceㅡthe voice?ㅡ What did it say? The sound of the old woman's voice brought me out of my daze and I snapped my head back to look at her. “Nyx…” Her tone was relieved and tears filled her eyes as she quickly enveloped me in a hug. I stiffened at once in her embrace and I quickly pulled away, my eyes wide as I stared her down. “Who are you?” I managed to croak, my voice slightly higher than normal. I immediately clasped my hand over my mout
