The Luna Queen's Rebirth (Ellie and Dominic) novel Chapter 79

Chapter 79

Ellie POV

Getting two future Alphas into a medical bed should qualify as an Olympic sport.

Because at the moment, the teachers are wrestling them to the ground, then, as humans into beds, and the next. The are still arguing.

This had…luckly calmed down, the hospital room luckly all ready considering we were on the Healers campus, but the tension was still clear.

I was helping Lucas-who was very much alive, very much healing, and very much refusing to sit upright- into something resembling a proper position.

“Stop slouching,” I muttered, pushing his shoulder back with both hands:

He grimaced dramatically. “I was not slouching.”

“You were sliding off the bed like a dying seal.”

“I fought today,” he retorted. “I deserve to slide.”

“You fought Dominic,” I corrected, guiding his elbow so he wouldn’t rip through his bandage again. Which is not an honorable battle, it’s an act of stupidity.”

Lucas scoffed. “He had it coming for what he did to yu.”

I stared at him, exhausted down to my bones. “Lucas. He almost tore your throat out.”

Lucas’s mouth curved. “A near miss counts as skill on my part.’

I opened my mouth to argue-but the curtain beside us flew open with enough force to qualify as a physical

attack.

Dominic lay in the next bed.

Bruised. Bandaged. Furious.

And glaring directly at Lucas like he’d been waiting.

“Why does he get treatment?” Dominic demanded.

“Because I’m likable,” Lucas shot back instantly.

Dominic ignored him. “And I did not have it coming! I didn’t do anything!”

Lucas laugh, then coughed, clutching his rips.

Gods they are lucky they heal fast.

“You are so pathetic!” Lucas sneered.

Dominic looked like he was about to jump out the bed, but I put a hand up. I stared between them, my pulse beginning to throb behind my eyes. Slowly, deliberately, I grabbed the curtain and shoved it all the way

open.

“You two,” I breathed, hands on my hips, “are unbelievable, both of you need to shut up and listen because I’m about to kill both of you myself and blame a medical mishap.”

Both wolves stilled.

“First off, you fight over me. My issues, Never do that again. Next, you shifted and fought on the courtyard lawn-in broad daylight-in front of half the school. You’re supposed to be future Alphas, not feral dogs wrestling during lunch!”

Lucas winced. Dominic growled under his breath.

“I swear,” I continued, “if either of you ever fights over me or around me again, I’m-”

The infirmary door slammed open.

Sarah? A teacher?

No. Of course not.

Vivian.

The blonde burst inside like a storm of perfume and tears, zeroing in on Dominic’s bedside with theatrical

precision.

“Dominic!” she wailed, collapsing onto his uninjured side like she’d rehearsed it. “I came as soon as I heard -Ellie tricked you both into fighting, didn’t she? I knew it! She’s always trying to turn people against each other-”

I blinked. Actually blinked.

Before I could scrape a response together, both boys snapped in perfect sync:

“No, she didn’t.”

Dominic and Lucas glanced at each other-surprised, reluctant allies for exactly two seconds of their entire

lives.

“We acted on our own,” Lucas muttered, not looking at me.

Vivian froze. Her expression flickered, before melting into a trembling lip.

“O-oh… I just… worry.”

Dominic exhaled, already too tired for this. He put a hand on Vivian’s head, more like one would pat a

nervous pet.

“Relax,” he said quietly. “We just had a disagreement.”

Lucas’s eyes rolled so hard I thought he’d detach a retina.

Mine matched his perfectly.

I turned on my heel. Well, they seemed stable enough.

I’d had enough testosterone, bloodshed, accusations, and dramatics for one lifetime-let alone one

“Ellie,” Dominte called belgid me, voice softer, but I kept walking

Nope Still hated you

Behind me, Lawas muttered, “Think she’s ad?”

Dominic answered, “the forgive you for everything. But she threw me into a wall earlier. What do you think?”

Vivian gasped “She did what ?1”

I didn’t stop.

It I did, I might scream.

I was three steps from freedom, three steps from escaping the suffocating smell of antiseptic and testosterone when I heard it.
