The Wolf King's Luna

Chapter 62: FINDING LUCAS

LUCAS

As I opened my eyes, there was chaos everywhere. Alpha Damon and his Pack members were fighting the collector. I was so weak, struggling to keep my eyes open. Then, I noticed another Alpha, who could that be?

"He's Alpha Craig," my wolf clarified.

"Oh! Got it," I said, surprised that Alpha Craig was here to help. I didn't know he was an ally of Alpha Damon

The air was tense with chants, and I tried to figure out what was happening. Urgently, my wolf told me, "We need to get out of here; you can't handle the energy here."

"But I can't go far, I'm too weak," I argued.

"You have to try; staying alive is the priority. Move now!" my wolf insisted, sensing danger.

With the little strength I had left, I moved backward into the woods. My wolf's urgency pushed me forward, hinting that danger was close. Eventually, I found a cave-like spot and couldn't go any further.

"I can't go on," I told my wolf, feeling drained.

Understanding my limits, my wolf eased up. I moved Inside the cave and rested there.

FAYE

"He was just here; where did he go?"

I got really worried when Lucas went missing so I questioned looking at Mel, I felt even more scared, thinking something bad might have happened to him while we were dealing with the Collector. My face showed how worried I was.

Mel reassured me, "He couldn't have gone far if he left by himself, he's too weak. Let's search around."

She looked around, trying to find any signs of Lucas with a concerned expression on her face.

Alpha Damon, directed us. "Ryder, you go left and check. I'll go with the girls this way," he said, carefully lifting his Luna. Damon looked concerned as he looked around, making sure we were safe.

Luna Diana, spoke up, "I'll go with Ryder," showing she was determined to help. Alpha Damon agreed with a firm nod.

I was so worried, I joined everyone in searching for Lucas. I didn't want anything bad to happen to him. Since we hadn't opened our mind link yet, I had no idea where he could be. My wolf, which usually helps, was unusually quiet, making me even more anxious. Every little sound in the woods made my stomach twist, and I kept nervously looking around, hoping to find Lucas.

"How did you find Lucas?" Alpha Damon inquired,

"Faye's wolf sensed danger. So we ran towards the woods and found that the Collector had hurt Lucas real bad." Mel replied, her face etched with worry

"He must have gone for him because he knew he was Faye's mate. All his schemes were just to get to me and also the Falcon." Alpha Damon said, realizing the collector's plan.

We continued walking, but Lucas was nowhere in sight.

"Let's not go further into the woods; let's retreat,"

Alpha Damon suggested, deciding to keep us safe.

He used our pack link to contact Ryder

"Ryder, where are you? Meet us by the Cave now; let's go back to the Pack."

We heard it because it was linked to everyone.

Damon's worry deepened as he asked more questions about Lucas.

"How bad is Lucas hurt?" he questioned,

Melissa spoke up again because I couldn't say anything,

"He's hurt real bad, Damon. We need to find him fast."

Ryder joined us, and Damon decided we should check the cave. The cave was dark and a bit scary, but Damon was determined. I felt a mix of fear and hope as we went inside.

"Alpha, let's not go too far into the cave; it looks kinda spooky," I suggested, feeling uneasy.

Alpha Damon called out, "Lucas! Where are you?" The sound echoed, making the cave feel mysterious.

Going a bit deeper, we found Lucas on the floor. I rushed to him, feeling a mix of worry and anger at the Collector.

"Lucas, are you okay? Can you hear me?" Tears filled my eyes.

Melissa checked on Lucas, looking serious as she said he was alive but needed help.

"We need to get him out of here and fix him up," she said, focusing on what we needed to do.

Leaving the cave felt better, and the night air was refreshing. Damon carried Lucas, and we walked back out of the cave towards our pack.

"You'll be fine," Damon reassured Lucas.

We got back to our pack, and everyone was really tired from all the drama.

"Ryder, take Lucas to the healer. I'll check on him in the morning," Alpha Damon said.

"Goodnight, guys. Goodnight, Mum," Alpha Damon said.

"Goodnight. Please take care of Cat," Luna Diana told Alpha Damon.

"Of course, Mum," Alpha Damon replied.

Following Ryder, we went to a building next to the mansion. Ryder carefully put Lucas on a bed, and the healer rushed over to help.

"Please give me some space to check on him," the healer asked, sounding calm.

Ryder and I moved away a bit, and I couldn't help but be anxious. The healer's hands felt warm as he checked on Lucas.

"He's weak and badly wounded, but he'll be okay," the healer said, trying to reassure us.

I couldn't hide my worry. "Are you sure he is going to be okay?" I asked.

"He just needs time. Whoever did this to him must have been way stronger than him" the healer explained, still focused on Lucas.

Ryder, standing by the bed, wanted to know, "How long until he's better?"

The healer, still checking on Lucas, said.

"Depending on how fast his body is willing to fight. His wolf and body need time to get strong again."

I couldn't sit still, so I walked around nervously. "Can we do anything to help him get better faster?" I asked.

The healer stopped and looked at me. "Rest is the best thing for him now and he has to go for a run as often as he can to help him heal faster"

Ryder, not saying much usually, added, "We'll make sure he rests."

The healer nodded. "Good. I'll give him some herbs to help him recover."

I thanked him, saying, "Thank you for taking care of him." Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

The healer smiled kindly. "It's my job."

He was always looking out for everyone.

"Can I stay with him?" I asked the healer

The healer finished checking on Lucas and said, "He needs rest, but if it helps him, you can stay for a while. Just keep it quiet."

"Thank you," I said to the healer as I took a seat close to the bed in time to hear Lucas mumble. I put my ears close enough and heard it

"I Love you Faye"
