Triplet Alphas Gifted Luna novel Chapter 10

Ch 10 Take Care of Her

The triplets took Thea to Dr. Boman, the pack doctor, in the west wing of the pack house. He was a kind but serious middle-aged wolf with short brown hair and brown eyes. He relocated her shoulder and put her arm ina sling.

“You’ll need to wear this for a few days to immobilize the area so it can heal,” Dr. Boman said. “Stay close to ther. You’ll heal faster.” Being close to your mate helped you heal faster. Did everyone think they were mates?

“You’ll heal faster once you shift, but since that’s still a few months away, you have to take it easy. You have a concussion. Head injuries are serious. No training until I say so. No strenuous activity.” He looked at the triplets. “Future Alphas, did you hear that? No strenuous activity. That means no hanky-panky. She needs rest.” 4

“Yes, Doctor.”

“Come back tomorrow so I can check on you. I need to monitor the concussion. If you vomit, have difficulty speaking, see stars, or have amnesia, come to me immediately.” He turned to the triplets again. “You’ll need to watch out for the symptoms. She may not know she’s having them.”

The triplets all looked concerned as they nodded. They left and headed toward Thea’s room.

“i want to shower,” Thea said. “I feel dirty. His scent is all over me.”

“Whatever you want,” Alaric said.

As they made their way up to the top floor of the pack house, Thea got a dizzy spell and started to fall. Kai caught her, picked her up bridal style, and continued up the stairs.

When they passed by the Alpha’s office on the fifth floor, the door opened, and Alpha Ulric walked out.

“What are you doing home?” Alpha Ulric said. He ran a hand through his black hair. He could barely reach his head because his biceps and shoulder muscles were so enormous. ‘

“Set me down,” Thea said. Kai put her down but kept a hold of her in case she had another dizzy spell.

The Alpha looked Thea up and down with his crystal blue eyes, concern overtaking his face.
“What happened?”

“There was an incident at school, sir. Nothing important,” Thea said.

“It’s important enough that you’re skipping school. Your arm is ina sling, your face is swollen, lip split, you’re holding an ice pack to the back of your head, and I smell dried blood. What’s that on your wrists?”

The triplets looked at her, letting her be in control of what she wanted him to know.

“Come inside,” the Alpha ordered.

The group walked into the Alpha’s office. All their parents were in the office. Thea’s mother gasped when she saw Thea’s state, her turquoise eyes wide in her pretty face. She tucked her dark blonde hair behind her ear. The parents all stared at their children as they stood in front of the Alpha’s desk. Kai stood a little behind Thea to catch her if she fell.

“What happened to make you leave school?” Alpha Ulric said, sitting behind his desk.

“It’s not a big deal. I don’t want anyone to overreact,” Thea said.

“We won’t,” Beta Walter said, his green eyes
stern. He didn’t look happy.

“I got ina fight with a shifted wolf,” Thea said. “That isn’t like you,” Alpha Ulric said. “What was so important you punched out of your weight class?”

“J didn’t start it, sir.”

“What happened to provoke the fght ? Why would anyone do this much damage to you?” Alpha Ulric said.

“She didn’t do anything, Dad,” Conri said. “The jerk tried to rape her.”

“Con,” Thea said. She closed her eyes and hung her head in shame. Another reason she shouldn’t be the next Beta. She didn’t see all the parents’ faces fall when they processed what he said.

“No, Thea,” Conri said, emotion in his voice. “It wasn’t your fault. You didn’t do anything wrong.”
“Who did this to you?” Alpha Ulric said.

“He’s from Moonlit pack,” Thea said.

Alpha Ulric growled, angry he wouldn’t be able to punish the kid himself.

“What did he do?” he said.

“The triplets found me before he could do  anything.”

“What did he do, Thea? I have to know what to talk to his Alpha about so he can be properly disciplined.”

Thea took a deep breath. “I was stupid. He said he needed to show me something, so I followed him into an empty classroom. He pulled it out, and I tried to walk out. He grabbed me. I elbowed him in the face. He dragged me over to the wall, pinned me. I punched him, headbutted him, kept hitting him, but nothing had any effect. He’s stronger than me, and I didn’t have leverage. He shoved his hand down my pants—”

“We should’ve broken every bone in his hands,” Kai said, voice low and menacing.

“I bit him,” Thea continued. “Almost tore a chunk out of him. That got him to stop fora second so he could hit me a few times. I don’t think it would’ve been so bad, but I was against a brick wall, and my head hit that too. That’s where the concussion happened. I was dazed fora moment. When I got my bearings, he had tied my wrists together behind my back.”

The triplets clenched their fists.

“I kneed him in the groin and ran. He threw me into a desk, pulled my pants down—”

“Oh, my goddess,” Naomi and Luna Ada whispered in unison. Thea glanced over and saw they were crying. Her father was seething, his chestnut hair shaking on his head. She turned back to Alpha Ulric.

“I wedged my foot in between us and kicked him off. The force pushed the desk over. I landed on my shoulder and dislocated it. That’s when the triplets came in. I’m sorry I failed all of you.”
“You did no such thing,” Alpha Ulric said. “Conri is right. You did nothing wrong.”

“Are you okay, Thea?” Luna Ada said. Her hand rested on Naomi’s, comforting Thea’s mother. She looked at Thea with her trademark concern for the people in her pack. With dark hair and soft, dark eyes, Luna Ada was very nurturing. She was like a second mother to Thea.

“The doctor wants to monitor the concussion,” Thea said.

“I don’t mean physically,” Luna Ada said. “Are you okay?”

“I just want to shift so I’ll be stronger, even the playing field,” Thea said.

“You should never have to protect yourself from something like that,” Luna Ada said.

“What was the boy’s name? I’m going to talk to his Alpha,” Alpha Ulric said.
