Second Chance for the Barren Luna (Talia and Jason) novel Chapter 278

CHAPTER TWO HUNDRED & SEVENTY EIGHT

Talia’s POV

Della still did not respond. It was as if she was trying to figure out what she wanted to say, which was unlike her

“Just tell me what is going on,” I urged.

“I think it will be easier if I show you,” Della finally replied.

“I do not like the sound of that at all,” Leslie muttered as we followed her out of the office.

I expected Della to lead us to the entrance where arriving warriors would normally be received, but when I realized she was leading us out of the pack house and to the hospital, anxiety began to build in my chest.

‘Do not panic. They could have run into a complication,’ my wolf offered

If that were the case, Della would have just said that,’ I answered. ‘She is choosing her words carefully. When has Della ever done that? This is far worse than a complication.’

Before my wolf could respond, we were hit with the scent of blood in the hospital corridor. My wolf stiffened within me. All her reassurances left as quickly as the fresh air in the hospital. Someone had been brought in bleeding profusely.

I could hear Nolan, Solon, and Marco talking before we even reached the waiting room.

“This is a disaster,” Solon growled. “What is taking so long?”

“You saw the state he was in. Let the doctors do his job. If you keep interrupting him, it’ll only take longer,” Nolan scolded

“And where are the rest of his team?” Solon demanded. “Did Alpha Landon only send six warriors? That is not nearly enough.”

“Perhaps they got separated,” Marco offered.

“Stop being so optimistic. This situation is bad and you should be able to see that clearly,” Solon snapped.

“What is bad?” I asked as I pushed the door open to the waiting room.

Nolan and Solon stiffened the moment they saw me. Marco’s expression fell. The scent of blood was strongest here. Mixed with pain and anger, it created a disgusting smell. I grimaced.

Solon glared at Della. “I told you not to tell her until we knew everything,” he snapped

“I never agreed to that. Talia is my Luna and it is my job to keep her in the loop,” Della shot back. “Everyone not being in the loop is how miscommunication and mistakes happen. And we cannot afford to make any more mistakes. “

“We weren’t going to exclude her from this. We wanted to get all the facts before we told her what was going on,” Nolan explained

Before I could respond, the doctor entered the waiting room.

“How is the patient?” Solon asked.
