Alpha's Second Chance

-

OLIVIA

It has been a week since Logan came and slept the whole night here, and he spent some time with Rose and Noah in the morning. I miss him terribly and hope this war thing will be over soon so we can go back to normal.

All the numbers on warriors and so on have been put in order, as well as how they train, patrol, sleep, and eat. Two more warriors have been attacked, but only one of them was bitten, and he was awake to say he wished to die if he started changing. So now Joseph and the other doctors are working hard, hoping they can find a way to save him.

I had offered to try with my healing ability, but Logan and Joseph both said no. Logan because he doesn't want others to find out, and Joseph because I am pregnant. He said it could be too much for the baby. After that, I stopped pushing for it.

Today, I am going to see Kendra. She says it has been a few weeks now, and from how the ultrasound looked last time. She thinks we might be able to see the gender today.

I told Logan when he mindlinked me last night before I went to bed, and he said he would do his best to be there. But he could not promise he would make it, and I understand that. Yes, it sucks, but I

understand.

I took my time getting ready this morning and then walked through the hospital towards the hospital wing

as it is now. I meet a few she-wolves as I walk there, and I wish them a good morning. They bow as I pass them.

"My Queen," Kendra says when I finally get there, and she sees me.

"Kendra, please," I say, and she smiles.

"Come lay down, Liv. And we will see how everything looks." She says, and I do as she tells me.

"Have you felt anything?" Kendra asks as I lay down.

"Some movement but nothing crazy, and I feel tired," I answer.

"Movement is a good thing. The tiredness is probably from not being able to do much and from the stress with everything happening. So I am not worried about this for now." She says, and I nod my head.

She put the gel on my belly, which already had a bum on it that was noticeable. And then she moves the wand around on my stomach while I look at the screen and see my baby.

"It is a healthy baby. Developing just the way she should." She says and smiles big.

"Is it a girl?" I ask her happily, and she smiles.

"Yes, it is, a healthy, strong little girl." She tells me and smiles again, and I look at the screen again. "Thank you, she looks so beautiful, she is perfect. Just so beautifully perfect." I whisper and smile.

"Yes, she is. I am printing pictures for you. Do you want me to record a small movie for you as well?" she asked me. She knew how tough it was that Logan wasn't here.

"Please, yes, if you can," I tell her, and she clicks a button on the computer and starts moving the wand around for a few seconds before clicking the button again. And then tell me she is done and will be right back.

When she was done, her nurse helped me clean the rest of the gel of my stomach so I could fix my clothes again, and I thanked her.

"Here it is, pictures and the movie," Kendra says when she comes back.

"Thank you, Kendra, you are amazing," I say, and she smiles.

"Keep taking the vitamins, and try to rest as much as you can. And, of course, if you feel anything you don't like, come to me." She says and smiles.

"I will, thank you," I say before leaving and walking back to my castle wing.

LOGAN

I am cursing myself right now. I knownoveldrama

Liv was going for an Ultrasound

today, and I wanted to be there. But the bitten warrior needed me, and couldn't leave. Joseph and his team of doctors had tried everything to try to stop him from changing, but with no other luck than they had slowed it down.

Now he had told them he had told started craving blood, and they say he is body started to turn cold. Hisz wishes were clear. If they couldn't stop it, he wanted to die. So here I am, waiting while his family says their goodbyes.

When they were done, his mother looked at me, and I held her hands in mine.

"If there is anything we can do for the family, let someone know or request for me to use the mindlink. I am very sorry." I tell her softly and give her a small hug when she starts crying.

She lost her husband a few years ago in a rouge attack, and now her son. So it was just her and two daughters and their mates. Her son had not found his mate.

When they leave, I walk over to the warrior, and he looks up at me with pleading eyes.

"My king, my apologies for not bowing, but I am a little tied up." He says, and we look at the restrains.

"No need to be sorry. It is me who should apologize for this." I say, and he looks shocked.

"No, my king. I knew the risk. I chose to be in this war." He says.

"Thank you for your allegiance and for your service as a warrior and everything that means," I tell him as I put a hand on his shoulder.

"It has been my honor, My king. To serve for someone so strong and powerful but fair king as you." He

says.

"They will sedate you, and when you are out, I will personally end it," I tell him, and he nods his head. "Be brave one last time." I finish and nod to Joseph for him to start.

I stay where I am with my hand on his shoulder. He looks at me and slowly starts to fall asleep. I nod my head and bow it in respect to him, and just before he falls asleep, I whisper.

"Rest in Peace." And he falls asleep.

Joseph checks to be sure and nods his head. I take a deep breath and shove my hand into his chest, lock it around his heart, and pull it out.
