The Alpha's Unwanted Luna (by Miss L) novel Chapter 196

Chapter 196

103 – Kennedy

“Oh, my girl! How are you holding up?!” Sarah hurriedly approached the SUV as we stepped out. Or rather, as Ryker stepped out—he still refused to let me go. Bennet walked close enough that his arm brushed against my foot with every stride.

“I’m fine, Sarah. Just a few bumps and bruises,” I replied, trying to sound more confident than I felt. Both Ryker and Bennet exhaled simultaneously, clearly worried. I rolled my eyes at their concern. “Really, I’m okay. See?” I motioned to my face, which was already showing signs of improvement. “Being this close to Ryker seems to speed up my healing.”

“Well then, we need to get you a hot meal and a checkup from Doctor Bradshaw, and then straight to bed,” Sarah ordered firmly.

“No, I want to head to my office first,” I insisted. “We need to figure out what Amy is plotting, what Claude is up to, and I don’t want to do that lying in bed. I’m tired of being stuck there because other people are trying to get to you through me.” I glanced at Ryker. “It makes me seem weaker than they think I am. I know I look like a mess, but I’m really okay. My physical condition can’t be more important than the pack’s safety, especially when there are at least two people actively trying to harm us right now.” I tried to free myself from Ryker’s arms, but he whined softly.

“Thanks, Mom,” he muttered as he gently set me down.

“Why your office, girlie?” Sarah asked, ignoring her son’s comment.

“Because I’m not going alone, and my office has enough space for multiple people. Ryker’s office isn’t as accommodating,” I explained, noticing the smile she gave me.

“Can we at least compromise? I can have Cindy bring you some food,” Sarah suggested.

“Sure. The boys need to eat, too. You’ve probably heard, but we’re taking in a whole rogue camp. They’ll need food and likely some basic medical care. I’ll let Cindy handle feeding us, and once they’re settled, Doc Bradshaw can check me out.” I raised an eyebrow, daring her to argue again. To my surprise, she simply nodded and turned away.

I followed her into the house, eager to sit down and review all the attacks now that we knew Amy was either leading or heavily involved in them. With this new insight, we had to understand how they’d been slipping past the pack’s defenses unnoticed.

Sarah headed straight for the kitchen, no doubt to inform Cindy and the other kitchen omegas about the situation. As we made our way toward my office, Robin passed by us.
