I Am The Luna

‘I’ll be fine. Focus on what you’re doing, Little Mate, I’ll handle the rest.‘ His voice is quiet, and I feel slightly calmer after his reassurance.

I return to the bed and get back to work, fishing out the fragments of the next bullet. These are strange bullets, not like any I’ve seen before. They seem to open upon impact and release small glass shards of poison inside the body.

I’m working on one of the ones in her stomach when I pause, seeing a piece of the glass lodged into her ureter.

I can hear the commotion from downstairs, doesn’t help me try to think what to do, my own heart thumping as I realise I will need to cut and reconstruct the

ureter…

I need light too, but I’m going to have to just make do.

I glance up at her unconscious form. I’m doing this with no assessments, hoping that she was in tune with her wolf to be able to survive this.

Her heartbeat has remained regular, albeit weak, and I’m hoping her healing will kick in and the wounds that were cleansed of poison start healing.

I rummage quickly in my kit, grabbing my mayo scissors as I work as fast as I possibly can. This is the last one I will tend to until we can move to a safer place. I wish Adriana was awake. I could use an extra pair of hands.

‘More are here. A few have gone upstairs! I’m coming, hold on baby girl,‘ Zade’s strained voice comes.

I feel the surge of his aura through the house, turning just as the door is slammed right off its hinges. My eyes flash as I look at the man who raises his guns, pointing them directly at Adriana and me.

The instinct to protect my patients burns through me, my eyes blazing as he readies to open fire. “Looks like half of you are already dead here,” he hisses from behind his mask which distorts his voice further.

“Let’s finish them,” another one says from behind him. The two men turn their masked faces towards the three of us.

Not on my watch.

In a flash, I’m in front of the first one who has entered just as he shoots his gun. I duck, kicking him in the stomach, my heart pounding with rage at the thought of him attacking the unconscious women.

I stab the scalpel I was holding into his neck, just as a gunshot goes off from behind me, hitting him in the shoulder. He clutches at his neck as he falls to the ground.

I whip my head around to see Adriana sitting up, her hands holding her gun. The other man snarls as he launches himself at me, and I yank the scalpel free, as he kicks me in the chest.

I’m thrown to the ground, and I hit my head on the ground as he opens fire. My powers surge as I raise a shield between us and I hear Zade shout.

“Val!”

For the first time, I hear a sliver of fear in his voice. Just as I managed to grab the scissors I used to cut the ureter earlier and fling it across the room with everything I had.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

It hits the man in the eye making him snarl in rage, my moment’s distraction as I focused on that throw weakens my barrier and one of his bullets hits my lower leg.

I’m on my feet again, ready, when his head is suddenly snapped from behind and he drops dead to the ground, revealing Zade behind him. Blood covers him from head to toe, rage and vengeance burning in his eyes…
