Second Chance for the Barren Luna CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & SEVENTY SEVEN
Talia’s POV"No need," Leslie announced. "I already contacted Alpha Landon. I knew that if you agreed there would be no benefit to waiting even a single day. Landon responded within the hour. He had the potions prepared and sealed by nightfall and his warriors departed before dawn."“When are they leaving?” I asked."They are enroute now. They left Lonefur territory this morning,” Leslie answered with a smile. Solon pulled her into a hug and kissed her, causing her to blush.I let out a sigh of relief and fell back on the pillows. "Leslie, thank you.""No need. This is my way of fixing what I did,” Leslie replied.“What are you talking about?” I asked.“I should not have spoken about preparing for a funeral while you were in sorrow. You had just watched something we both hoped would work, make things worse instead,” Leslie continued. “As a healer, I should have acknowledged what you were going through instead of allowing my own frustrations and pride take over. I am sorry.""You were

Talia’s POV"What do you mean?” I asked as I sat up even more.I couldn’t help but feel hopeful. Leslie had resigned herself to giving up, but she was now saying she found a solution. That means she is very confident it would work. I knew I shouldn’t get my hopes up too much, but I couldn’t help myself. “No discussion until you finish all of your food,” Solon interjected before Leslie could respond.I stared at the empty bowl on the tray and the half-eaten roll. “Are you serious?”“Yes, eat the rest of that roll and then we will continue,” Solon replied.I frowned and quickly shoved the roll into my mouth. I nearly choked as I tried to eat it as fast as possible. Nolan coughed, trying to hide a laugh. He handed me a glass of water which I quickly drank. I placed the glass down on the tray and said, “Okay, done, Leslie what do you mean you have a solution?”“Don’t get excited yet,” Leslie warned. “I want to be clear about what this is. I cannot cure your father. I can only buy time.”

Nolan’s POVThe pain and emotions faded as quickly as it came when we were only a foot away from the hospital. This bothered me more than actually feeling Talia’s pain. What happened?‘She’s still alive. I can still feel her,’ my wolf reassured me, but I was still panicking.Della was pacing in the waiting room. Nothing was torn apart or destroyed. There wasn’t the scent of blood in the air, so rogues hadn’t broken through our defenses. Why was Talia in so much pain?When Della saw us, she walked to us. "What happened?" I asked before Della could speak.Della swallowed, her voice tight. “We tried a new treatment but it failed. The King got worse. Leslie said there’s nothing more she can do, but Talia wouldn’t accept it. They argued. The healers had to sedate Talia before she completely broke down.”“Where is she?” Solon asked."She is in room 4. She is physically stable, but she donated a lot of blood for Leslie’s treatment, and the breakdown took it out of her,” Della replied. Solo

Nolan’s POV“That’s the last one,” Solon said as I snapped the rogue’s neck and his body collapsed to the ground.I counted over a hundred in total by the time it was done. They had come in waves. The first wave hit before we had fully organized. The second arrived when we were already stretched thin.Solon had taken the left flank. I had taken the right. We held both, but not without cost. Fifteen of Silverfang's warriors were severely wounded and five were dead.“Where did they come from?” Solon asked.“The Rogue King….Jason must’ve sent them,” I answered. “We need to check in on the other areas,” Solon stated.We found Marco and Derek near the southern gate. As Solon’s Beta, Derek was directing two of his men to secure the gate latch where a rogue had damaged the mechanism during the fight. Marco was checking on the wounded warriors. He had a cut above his brow that had bled down the side of his face and dried there.“Marco, Derek,” I greeted.“Good to see that you two are not in

Talia’s POVI lifted my father up and turned his head to allow the blood to rush out of his mouth to keep him choking. The convulsions stopped but he was still coughing."What is happening?!" I exclaimed.“Talia, move!” Della called and snatched me out of the way as Leslie and healers rushed into the room. My father was unconscious before the coughing stopped. He was struggling to breathe as he was still choking on his blood that had now stained his lips black.Leslie checked his pulse and her jaw tightened."Purification agent, now," she ordered to the healer behind her. "We need to flush the compound out."The healer moved immediately. Leslie stepped back just far enough to give him room to work and stood with her arms crossed. She did not look at me or Della.When the healer stepped back Leslie examined my father again. She checked his pulse a second time and straightened slowly."Damn it," Leslie growled."What? What is wrong? Tell me what is going on," I begged."His body is not

Talia’s POV"Go," I told Nolan.Nolan looked at me once and said, "Stay inside the palace walls until I send word."I nodded and said, "I will go to the hospital with Della, and we will see what Leslie needs.”Nolan was out the door before I finished speaking and I heard him calling for Solon in the corridor.I found Della in her room two doors down. She was already dressed and putting on armor. She had clearly heard the commotion.“Don’t bother with that,” I told her. “We’re going to the hospital.”“We’re not going to help them?” Della asked.“No. They’ll handle it. We need to help Leslie, but first we need to get all the books on blood-based treatments and wolf healing we can find,” I explained."I know where they keep the older records and it is not in the library,” Della said. "Give me ten minutes." She was back in eight with four volumes.We moved quickly through the palace and out toward the hospital. I could hear the border response clearly. There were shouts, guttural screams

Talia’s POVThe bedroom door shut behind us, and the sound cut off the noise from the party like a switch. I turned to Nolan immediately. I grabbed his shirt and pulled him down into a kiss.He froze for half a second, and then he kissed me back. His hands came up to my shoulders like he was trying

Talia’s POVThe banquet hall pulsed with music and voices. Warm light shone across stone walls and silver platters. Wolves from every territory were in their finest suits and ball gowns, while servants wove between them with trays of food and wine.At the head stood my father, the Alpha King. Even

Talia’s POVThe morning sun beat down on the training grounds, warm but not yet oppressive. Della stood beside me with a bow in hand.“Focus, Talia,” she said, her tone smug as the string creaked. She released, and the arrow thudded just outside the painted ring. “Damn it.”I chuckled and pulled my

Talia’s POVNolan leaned close to me. "That proposal is insane," he said, his voice low enough that only I could hear it."I know," I said.“Then, why are you agreeing to this?”"Trust me. I know what I am doing," I responded.If we didn’t go along with Landon’s proposal, then the other packs would
