the only doctor here, the majority of this will fall onto her.

“Do you have omegas who can sew?” she asks Alpha Harold.

“Yes,” he says.

“Get them here,” | say to him, looking around.

“You two start triaging, I'll start laying these warriors out for you | say to Yara, then turn to Harold, waiting for

him to finish contacting his omegas. “I would suggest that you let your pack know that what Yara says goes,

“I need to get this one into surgery.” Yara says.

“This one needs surgery too, Luna,” Savannah says.

Yara looks around again, before focusing back on Harold. “Do you have anyone with any medical assistance

training at all?”

He looks around. “Rebecca is the one that’s been trying to keep us patched up”

“Rebecca, you're with me,” Yara says, going over to check on the one that Savannah said needs surgery.

“Savannah, | need you to stay out here. Triage and stabilize and I'll send Rebecca to let you know when I'm

ready for the next one.”

She looks around. “I need a gurney,” she calls out. One of our warriors grabs one and then two more lift the

gurney.

“If you need help, Yara, let us know,” I tell her. She nods, her mind already prepping for the surgery she’s about

to do.

“I do need smedical supplies. Can you get them laid out so can send Rebecca out to see get what | need?”

“Look at you,” he says softly, gently, and the warriors in the room all begin murmuring. Harold walks over and

“What can we do Alpha!” one of my warriors asks me.

“Helpfind gurneys and pedical supplies. Dver Savannah needs help with,” | say, assigning one of the

warriors to

“Alpha Warren, these are my omegas. You can put them to work he says, gesturing for the four individuals who

sickening scent in this room, so | look at the person,

“If you're going to throw up, leave. We don’t have tto do more clean up than we already need to do.”

me. “The three of you can sew?”

“I can help them Alpha. Luna trained our omegas on me,” one of my warriors says.

“Okay, do it. Once Savannah says they're ready for stitching, you three will stitch them up.”

-Con, let's get what we need,” my warrior says.

When | look over. | see Alpha Harold holding a mini-Alpha ceremony with his pack members, bringing them all

back into his pack. He's squatting in front of them, talking softly to them while they cry and accept him as their

Alpha again. Beta Franklin is standing behind him, also encouraging the group and helping to calm them.

His pack is still fighting even though they expect to die. They're doing it for him, because they love their Alpha

and he’s still fighting for them.

| see Rebecca rush out, look at the supplies, then rush back into the room and a few moments later, she comes

out again.

“Is anyone ready to stitch for us?” she asks.

“Con, Little Lady. I'll show you how to do this,” my warrior says to the omega. Her eyes go wide but she

nods. When Rebecca sees the omega headed her way, she turns to Savannah. “Savannah, who's next?

“This one,” Savannah says pointing to another unconscious warrior, barely turning away from the one she’s

looking at

Her mind is completely focused on her work and she’s mumbling to herself about what she’s doing and what a

mess the pack is.

I walk up to her, kissing the top of her head. “I love you,” | whisper before leaving her to her work.

“Love you too,” | hear her mumble in between all the other mumblings she’s doing.

When | cback out, | see Franklin standing over Savannah. What can | do to help?” he asks her.

She smiles up at him a moment before turning back to her work “We need someone who can clean out infection.

Got anyone like that?” she asks.

“What do they need to do?” | ask her.

She stops with her hands not leaving the bloody body of the warmor she’s checking over. She looks around and

juts her chin at the inedical table. “See those bottles of water with the little handle coming out of them?”

“Yeah,” Franklin and | say together.

“Grab one of those and start washing out the infection. If you wash it out and its bleeding underneath, let me

know,” she says, turning back and putting something that looks like a clamp on the arm of the warrior she’s

looking over.

We get into a rhythm of treating the warriors, cleaning out their wounds and the longer Yara is in surgery, the

Harold sent his returned pack members back to the packhouse to rest. Savannah tried to get sof the other

warriors to go rest as well after they were stitched up, but they refused.

“I'll tell you what my Luna says to my warriors,” | say, raising my voice so the entire room can hear me. “If you

mess with her nurses, you'll answer to her. You may not know it yet, but you don’t want that.”

“No, you don’t,” one of my warriors confirms.

“She threatened to follow our Beta into the Moon Goddess’s realm and drag sorry ass back down here,” a second

warrior

says.

“Yep, and knowing her like we do, we all agree that she'll do it.” another warrior says and my warriors all nod.

“And don’t get us started on how she’ll make your ears bleed if you disregard her instructions.” yet another

warrior pipes in. shaking his head.

| look up and see Alpha Harold watching my warriors talk about their Luna.

-Well. you

heard them. Apparently, answering to Alpha Warren's Luna is worse than answering to me, so if you act like

fools. I'm going to let her treat you like fools. She doesn’t sound like the kind of woman who appreciates fools,”

“No she doesn’t,” | say proudly.

I look around, realizing that everyone who had minor injuries is now treated and been released. Savannah has

started treating sof the lessor injuries and is helping to stitch up the more injured warriors, explaining what

she’s doing to the omegas while she does it. Franklin is watching her with a proud, possessive look that I'm very

“Alpha Warren.” Alpha Harold says, walking up.

“Alpha Harold. You know that you aren’t excluded from being dressed down by mate, right?” | ask, noticing that

he still hasn't been treated.

He nods, looking around. “I didn’t know what to expect when you offered your assistance, but it wasn’t this. |

thank you, but I'm guessing you want something in return,” he says.

| turn and look at him. “You're right, | do.”

He presses his lips together. I'm not sure what he thinks I’m going to ask for, his pack maybe, but he’s

obviously willing to

givewhat | want for helping his pack members.

“What is it that you want, Alpha?” he asks quietly.

“I want an alliance, Alpha Harold, between you and I. | want the war between us to stop and | want to know that

we will help each other, support each other as allies going forward

He turns, looking atincredulously. “That's what you want?”

“That's what | want,” | confirm.
