True Luna novel (Emma and Logan) novel Chapter 14

Chapter 14 Rest

Emma POV

When I got out of the shower, I could hear Sienna yelling at Logan. She was telling him that he should have left Andrew to take care of me. I couldn’t

hear what he said to her, but I didn’t

even want to. I shut them out

completely.

He was confusing the hell out of me. First, he rejected me, and then he was all jealous and growling at Jake. What was his plan, anyway? Did he want to take Sienna as his mate and make me

be alone forever because he couldn’t

stand to see another man around me?

The most terrifying thing was that he could actually do that. Nobody could go against Alpha command. He could just order every male wolf to stay away from me and they would have to obey him.

I got dressed as carefully as I could. Pain was consuming my entire body. I didn’t even know if it is physical or emotional anymore.

I sat down on my bed and leaned on the headboard.

I heard the front door open and close, and I prayed to the Goddess that Logan and Sienna left.

A few minutes later, I heard Andrew climbing up the stairs and walking to my room.

He opened the door and I saw that he was carrying the food tray. He brought me soup, steak, and vegetables. My stomach twisted inside me. I couldn’t eat.

Andrew placed the tray on my lap and gave me a stern look.

“Eat.” he said and sat down next to me.

I slowly picked up a spoon and started eating the soup. My belly disagreed immediately.

I frowned and stopped eating.

“What are you doing?” Andrew growled.

“I am sick.” I said quietly.

“Of course, you are.” he sighed. “You haven’t eaten anything since your birthday. Your belly is shocked that you are finally eating.”

“Well, let’s not shock my belly even more.” I said and pushed the food tray away,

Andrew growled loudly and pushed the tray back. “You will eat, Emma. Don’t push me. You need to take a painkiller,

and I am not giving you one on an empty stomach.”

I sighed and picked the spoon back up.

I ate about a half of what Andrew brought up for me, and after convincing him I was full and would burst if he made me eat more, he finally moved the food tray away.

He gave me a painkiller and a glass of

water.

“Why didn’t you tell me you were having trouble sleeping?” he asked me, taking the cup away and placing it on my nightstand.

I shrugged. “I don’t know.”

“You should have told me.” he said.

I looked at him and sighed. I didn’t see

how he could have helped me.

“Emma, you are all that I have in this world.” he said seriously. “No matter what is going on between us, you can always come to me with any problem that you are having. You are my sister, and it is my job and my privilege to take care of you.”

“What are you doing?” I asked.

“I am sleeping here.” he said. “Just like when mom and dad died, and you

couldn’t sleep without me.”

He was right. I had nightmares after they died. I couldn’t and wouldn’t sleep without him here. It lasted for about a year. The difference was that back then I wanted him here, now I didn’t.

“You don’t have to do that.” I said.

“Get under the covers, Emma.” he said and turned off the lamp on the nightstand.

It wasn’t really that late. It was only 7 pm. But being December, it was already dark outside and as soon as he turned the lamp off, my room was completely dark.

“Don’t you have Beta business to do?” I asked. “It is still early.”

“Logan gave me a day off to take care

of you.” he answered. “Get under the covers and sleep.”

I sighed and did as he told me. I carefully pulled the covers over my body and tried to get comfortable. The painkiller I took was starting to make me numb and it helped.

Andrew took my hand in his and came closer to me. He always used to do that when I was little. I couldn’t sleep without his hand in mine.

“I love you, Em.” he said.

“I love you too.” I whispered and let sleep take me.
