“Of course Alpha” I hear Laurence say before he slips from the room quietly.

“Fuck Nova, you had my heart racing for a while there” Jax says with a sad smile as he takes a seat

on the bed next to me.

“I’m sorry I didn’t mean to worry you” I whisper.

“Don’t apologise” he says sternly. “What you did was nothing short of incredible, I’ve never seen

that much power before in anyone.”

“We used the strength of the Moon Goddess” I hear Kia say to us with a yawn as she stretches in

my mind. “A time of great need.”

“You did what?” Jax says in shock. “That explains a lot.”

“Yeah” I sigh stretching my muscles gently. “I don’t know how.”

“What matters is everyone is ok” Kia says to me.

Hearing the door reopen Laurence walks into the room with a smile followed closely by a nurse. Luna how lovely to see you awake” she says warmly before coming over to introduce herself. “I’m Natasha and I’m just going to have a quick check of your vitals. We had you on an IV drip and you

definitely have some more colour in you then you did when you arrived.”

“Thank you” I say politely as her small hands begin to efficiently check over me. Leaving her to Work in peace for a few moments I hold onto Jax tightly needing the comfort of the mate bond.

“You are recovering well” Natasha says with a reassuring smile. “Our Beta says you are keen to go

home and I’m happy to release you. But you have to promise to rest and take it easy for the next 48

hours. Light movement is ok just make sure you eat well and get plenty of sleep. Alpha you heard that yes?”

“Loud and clear, I’ll make sure Nova rests” he says as he stands beside me. “Laurence can take us

back and we can go to the suite love.”

“Thank you Natasha” I say softly as she bows her head and leaves the room as quietly as she came. “Get me out of here” I say with a slight laugh as Jax helps me stand.

“I’ll go get the car ready while you get dressed” Laurence says before leaving.

“How’s dad?” I ask quietly as Jax helps me into a loose dress.

“He’s fine Nova, let’s discuss it when we are back. I promise to fill you in on everything” Jax says

‘looking at me with a smile. “First I want to see you in our bed and maybe Zeus will be less on edge

then.”

“He’s been worried huh?” I ask with concern.

“You have no idea” Jax says with a little laugh. Running a hand through his hair he pulls me in close for a soft embrace, “but he’s much better now after hearing your voice and Kia.”

“I’m really sorry for worrying you Jax” I whisper.

Hearing a low grumble in his chest at my apology he pulls away, “I want that to be the last time I hear you apologise..got it?”

“Got it” I whisper smiling. Picking up the bag off of the bed which I assume has some of my things in he quickly picks me up to carry me bridal style.

“I can walk” I lightly protest.

“Let me” he says quietly, “Zeus and I need to know you’re recovering as best you can.”

Kissing his shoulder softly I nestle my head into his neck as he walks us out of the hospital. Lowering me gently into the car he shuts the door before jogging round and sliding in beside me.

“Let’s go” he says to Laurence before he pulls out and begins the short drive to the pack house.”

Do you mind bringing the bag up and asking for some food and drinks to be brought up?” Jax asks

Laurence as we pull up and he walks round to lift me out once again.

“Already done” Laurence says with a smile. “I’ll go grab everything and shall I meet you up in your

room once you’re settled?”

“Yes please” Jax says as he cradles me close. “We need to talk to you about some things” he

explains as I look at him questioningly. Feeling me tense in his arms he quickly continues, “it’s

nothing you need to worry about. But I’d rather make you aware than not broach the subject. Your dad will be coming by later as well, he’s just taking some time to himself after what happened.”

“Have you spoken to Luca and Sophie?” I ask softly.

“I have, and I’m under strict instruction to keep them updated hourly and once you’re up to it you

have to call them” he says with a smirk. “Quite impressive a Beta having the balls to tell me what to

do.”

“He’s a good brother” I smirk up at him as he nods in agreement.

“I also asked Sophie to speak to your father, I think he needed some family comfort” Jax says quietly as he opens our suite door and walks me over to the bed.

“I’m worried about him” I admit. “Where is Johnathon?”

“Travelling back from seeing Sophie, he’ll be back within the hour” he says as he pulls the duvet up

and sits next to me, tucking me into his side. Feeling my eyes grow heavy I fight to keep myself

awake, “sleep love. I’ll ask Laurence to come by in an hour and we can have some food. I’ll stay
