Alpha’s Rue: His Shunned Luna (Athena Enchanted) novel Chapter 342

She whimpers, staring at me with glassy eyes. She’s even more pitiful in this form. Seraphine’s wolf is certainly stronger than her human form, so it’ll take more than just one shift to get rid of her pup. If the shifting doesn't work, I have a plan B. “Again,” I step back.

Her head tilts in question and I nod. Seraphine shifts back, gasping. In the two seconds she's in this form, she’s already crying and clutching her stomach. I stare between her legs, nothing. No blood, no pee, it must not be working yet. She shifts again, this time quicker, and Mila howls in pain, so loud it echoes through the empty forest. People come here to camp, but I’m in charge because it's the littles that they bring over, and I didn’t approve any requests for the next two days just for this reason.

When Seraphine shifts back into her human form, she’s screaming again, and this time, I note a streak of blood down her legs. “I can’t do it again,” she sobs, clutching her stomach. “I’m going to die, Audrey.”

“You don’t have to,” I kneel beside her, softly caressing her hair. “How bad is it?”

“I’m in pain,” she swallows. “But—”

“That’s a good sign, now you just have to drink this,” I tell her, reaching for the waterbottle I brought with us on our hike. “This will end it for sure.”

I open the bottle and bring it to her mouth, she stares at me with doubt, “Promise it won’t kill me.”

“Seraphine.” I gasp. I've never killed anyone before, it's always just an expression.

“What? You’re capable.”

“Fine, I’ll drink some,” I say with an eyeroll, helping her against the tree to balance. I take more than a sip, making sure she sees me swallow. “It will do nothing to me, but you’ll have a miscarriage.”

She finally drinks it. I give her a tampon and dress her again. She spends a few minutes whining and whimpering, but after an hour or two, we’re good to return. It’s still very early when we return to the packhouse, people are still sleeping, the streets are quiet and the house is even more silent.

Upstairs, there's an unusual loudness coming from Kingston’s room. I miss when he kept her in the other wing of the house, far away where I couldn’t hear her moaning like she’s getting murdered.

“Is that Aeliana?” Sera winces, hanging on to me.
