Filed to story: Rylee the Orphan Luna Novel
“I can smell it on them,” I tell Wyatt. He looks like he’s about to argue, so I punch him in the stomach to stop him. “I smell the human on them too, but that’s only on the outside if I’m not mistaken. I can smell their blood, they’re part of our kind,” I tell him sternly and he just nods.
“Alpha, Luna, the girls are resting peacefully, and their heart rates are starting to normalize. They will be out for a while, so I suggest you all go get some rest. I will also do a DNA sequencing analysis to determine what species they are. As soon as I know anything, I will mind link you,” Dr. Andrews said. We nodded and we all left.
“Where did Kendrick go?” I asked Wyatt, realizing that he wasn’t with us.
“He’s explaining to my mom and the others what happened. Unfortunately, we need to report this to the Elders,” he answered.
“Why?” I asked.
“Rylee, you know why. Our pack is under scrutiny because of the whole clone crap I pulled last year,”
“Still!? It’s been a year!” I shouted stopping in my tracks. “I thought Alpha
Richard was supposed to talk to the elders on your behalf?”
“He did, and he can only get so far. There are only two weeks left, and then the Elders will leave us alone. But two unknown girls jumping off a cliff and right into the lake within our pack territory is suspect, and we have to report it.” “Suspect?! Wyatt, did you not see those two girls in there? They’re about my age, and they look like they’ve gone through more beatings than I ever did.”
“I did see, but if these girls were in a similar situation that you were once in, then we have even more reasons to report it to the Elders,” he says. I pressed my lips together knowing that he was right.
Whatever it is that these girls went through, I had the strangest feeling it was something more than forced labor or possible slavery. I just hoped that when they woke up, they would be willing to share their story. .
***Wyatt’s P.O.V.***
After breakfast the next morning, Rylee and I went down to the pack hospital to see if Dr. Andrews could give us any information about the girls that decided to go free-diving off a cliff into our lake. Rylee couldn’t sleep at all last night, tossing and turning because of how worried she was. My biggest fear was that she would imprint herself on these girls and make an assumption that their suffering prevented her from needing to proceed cautiously.
When we got to the hospital, we went straight to Dr. Andrews’ office where he proceeded to tell us his findings at once. “Alpha, Luna,” he bowed his head as we took a seat. “First things first, the girls haven’t gotten color back into their faces, but their bodies seem to be healing.” “That’s good,” Rylee said with a sigh of relief.
“Certainly, and for the record Luna, you were correct. They are indeed werewolves,” Dr. Andrews continued.
“I knew it!” I couldn’t help but smile at Rylee’s juvenile quip.
“That’s not all,” which made us both stare at Dr. Andrews. “Going off their DNA, I would say at the very least they are sisters,” he said. He paused for a minute, “Also, based on their genetic markers these girls are no ordinary wolves.” “What do you mean?” I asked him.
“Alpha, I tripled my verification, and both of these girls are descendants of Alpha blood.”
“WHAT?!” Both Rylee and I shouted.
“Yes, I was shocked as well when I saw the results, which is exactly why I ran the blood two more times,” he answered.
“Can you tell what pack they came from?” Rylee asked.
“Unfortunately not, Luna. What’s strange is that these girls do not smell like rogues either,” I responded.
“Wait, if these girls are Alpha wolves, why the hell do they smell like they’re human?” I asked. Dr. Andrews just shrugged his shoulders. “Your guess is as good as mine, Alpha.”
“How can they have Alpha blood and look the way they do? Did their own pack do this to them?” Rylee asked, her voice full of disgust.
“Luna, I don’t know. We’re going to have to wait until they wake… oh, hold on,” Dr. Andrews stopped for a moment as his eyes clouded over, “… one of them is awake.” We all quickly went to the hospital room where they were staying. ***Lexie’s P.O.V.***
My head was spinning, and my entire body felt like it weighed a thousand pounds. I tried to move, but I just couldn’t do it. I heard an annoying beeping sound going off somewhere and unfamiliar voices around me.
“Hey honey,” I heard a man’s voice. It didn’t sound harsh like the men who were chasing us, this man’s voice was soft and gentle.
“Hi Owen,” I heard a woman’s voice answer. “What are you doing here?”
“I came by to check on these two and see how they’re doing,” the man answered. He sounded nice. “They’re doing okay. Their vitals are normal, and they’ve both gotten the color back in their cheeks. Both of their temperatures are normal now too. They should wake up soon,” the woman replied. They kept saying two, could they be talking about me and Lanie?
“Ugh,” I groaned.
“Did you hear that?” I heard the man say. “Oh, it looks like one of them is waking up,” the woman said. “Hey, sweetheart, can you hear my voice?” the woman said gently close to my ear. I moved my head a bit and finally opened my eyes. I was taken aback when I was met with the face of a beautiful woman and attractive man who looked like they just stepped off a steamy romance novel cover.
“Who are you?” I asked them.
“My name is Sirena, I’m the head nurse of this hospital. This is my husband Owen, he’s a guard,” she said. “Are you okay? Do you feel nauseous? Dizzy? Have a headache?”
“Ummm… I have a slight headache, but that’s it,” I answered. I looked around and saw nothing except dull gray walls and machines. I glanced to my left and saw Lanie in another bed. “My sister, is she okay?”
“She’s fine, she’s just asleep. We had to give her some stronger pain medication because of her ankle, but she’s okay,” Sirena answered. “Do you think you can sit up?” I nodded my head, so she lifted the bed I was in and helped me sit up straight.
“Where am I?” I asked again, but instead of answering me the man and woman ignored me and went about checking Lanie. I found it odd that they didn’t want to answer. I was going to ask again when three other people entered the room, causing me to completely lose my train of thought.
Whoa. One of them was very handsome. He had light brown hair that was combed back and was taller than the other man in the room. He had defined muscles and his eyes were aqua or possibly teal color, the kind that could only be found in tropical waters. He had on a black shirt with blue jeans and what appeared to be dress shoes.
The girl accompanying them looked younger, perhaps closer to my age. She had long wavy blonde hair with dark brown eyes and was wearing a light-blue long sleeve blouse and black pants with black boots that came up to her knees. She had a really friendly face. The older man looked to be about 50 or 60 and had on a long white coat. He was obviously a doctor.
“Hi there,” the young girl said to me as she walked up and sat on the edge of my bed. I scooted back a bit. “Don’t worry, you don’t have to be afraid of me,” she said softly and smiled. I relaxed a bit feeling that she was being sincere. “My name is Rylee, what’s yours?” she asked. I hesitated and questioned whether I should answer her. “You can trust us,” she said reassuringly. “Lex…Lexie,” I stuttered. “My name is Lexie.”
“Hi Lexie,” she said and smiled again. She had a nice smile. “Is she your sister?” she asked, pointing at Lanie and I nodded. “What’s her name?”
“Lanie,”
“You guys have really pretty names.” “Thank you,” I answered softly.
