The Pack's Doctor by Cooper

Chapter 170 Chapter 170 Yara M 46 When Beta Kier raced into the hospital carrying a bloody and unconscious Kennedy, my heart tightened. This is twice my daughters' lives have been at risk, only this time, there is no one else to save her but me.

"Bring her in here," I tell him, rushing into one of the surgery rooms. Now that she's gotten more supplies, I feel confident that I have what I need to treat anyone who walks through those doors.

"Tellwhat happened," I say as I begin looking her over. She's bleeding from multiple head wounds and other places on her body. Echo must be weak if she's not healing her.

"I'm not exactly sure, Luna. We went to Jasper's pack and he wasn't there. We searched everywhere but Jasper hadn't taken her there. While Alphas Warren and Connor dealt with the people in the safe rooms, we raced to Alpha Brogan's pack." I'm surprised that Quirin left the innocents alive. His father never did.

"He wasn't going to, but your mate intervened. I'm glad he did. I didn't like the idea of killing omegas and pups,” he says, makingrealize I spoke out loud.

"Kennedy wouldn't have liked that either." "That's what Alpha Warren told him and it worked. So, we raced to Alpha Brogan's pack and about halfway there, Alpha asked if any of us were getting a faint link. Maybe it's because they're mates, or because he's an Alpha, but it took us longer to realize that we were close enough to Luna Kennedy to pick up the mind link. When we did, we realized she had gotten away from the others and was being hunted by both Alphas and Alpha Brogan's warriors." "My daughter is fast," I say, wondering how Echo even managed to shift with the injuries I'm seeing. She would have had to pull on all her strength to do so. Between that and the injuries that aren't healing, I'm sure Echo has gone silent.

'Annika, we're not letting our daughters die on us.' I feel my wolf reaching out in the mind link, searching for even the faintest link to Echo. When she finds it, she mentally latches on.

'Our daughters aren't going anywhere,' she growls softly. I let her focus on Echo while I focus on Kennedy. "What of Alpha Jasper?" I ask.

"Alpha was attacking him when I left," Kier says.

"And Alpha Brogan?" I ask as I wash the largest gash that Kennedy has before starting to stitch her up.

"Alpha Henry was going after him. You're going to save her, right Luna? You're not going to let our Luna die, right?" "I have a rule in my hospital, Beta. No one dies. I've never lost anyone and I don't intend to start with my own daughter." I watch as he breathes a sigh of relief. “Thank you. She's been everything that this pack has needed and more. None of us cfrom good packs, obviously we were all rogues when we cto Alpha Quirin, but she's showing us what it means to be a pack, to be a family. I'm not sure I've ever seen or felt a pack that was so desperate to please someone before now. Maybe it's because I'm a Beta and can feel the pack or maybe it's just your daughter's influence, but it's pretty incredible to watch." I think I like this Beta.

"Thank you, I like you too, Luna," he says. Shit! I spoke out loud again. Usually Warren is around to intercede with my mumblings, but right now, it's just Beta Kier and 1.

1/3 46% 14:14 Thu, 13 Mar OM Chapter 170 I've just gotten the worst of the injuries stitched up, attached monitors to her, and put an IV into Kennedy's arm when Kier's head snaps up.

"What is it?" I ask him.

"Alpha's back. He's on his way here." I nod and it's only a few moments later when Quirin walks in, covered in blood with a dark, heavy aura rolling off of him.

"Alpha Quirin, you should use the new showers that you had installed here. You smell like blood and death. Kennedy doesn't need to wake up and worry about you. She needs to focus on her own healing," I tell him.

"You need to save Echo too. She pushed herself too hard so that they could warnthat Alphas Jasper and Brogan wanted to kill me. She was willing to give her life to save me. You have to save her," he says, his voice breaking.

I stop, turning to look at him. “And I am. Annika has already connected to the tether of her mind. When Warren, Connor, and Yorick arrive, I'll have them do the same. I'd be surprised if you haven't already done so, but as your pack returns, they could connect and hold on to her as well. It will help give Echo strength and help Kennedy to heal." He nods but doesn't move.

"Alpha Quirin." I wait until he pulls his eyes away from Kennedy. "Go shower, then you can cand hold her hand if you'd like." He nods again. "When she wakes up, I want her to know that I'm here for her." "Go shower. I'm going to finish stitching up her wounds and draw sblood. Then, it's mostly just waiting." "Con, Alpha. I'll show you where the towels are and as the warriors chome, I'll have them connect with our Luna to help keep her strong," Kier says.

Yeah, I really like that Beta.

Both men look over atand I press my lips together. I did it again.

I've finished stitching up all of Kennedy's wounds, adding antibiotics to her IV drip since Echo is silent, and I'm drawing blood when Quirin walks back in, clean and dressed.

He pulls a chair over and takes Kennedy's hand. "The others just arrived. I sent them to the showers, but the pack should be connecting to Kennedy, holding on to her and to Echo," he says.

"Do you know if she ever ate?” I ask him. I've never seen Kennedy's hands shake like I saw when she was doing the C-section for her pack member.

"She barely ate anything. She didn't have time, Luna," he says, his eyes never leaving Kennedy.

"I think that's part of the problem here. I'm running her blood work now to see if she's deficient in anything and if she is, I'll add those supplements to her IV line. It's good that she stocked the hospital. And it's good that the two of you talked,” I tell him, leaning over to grip his forearm.

"I can't lose her," he says, his eyes filling with tears and his voice thick with emotion.

"You, more than most, know the rule in my hospital, Quirin.” He looks up at me, the anger in his eyes from before has turned to devastation, grief, and fear.

"I'm trusting you, Luna. I'm trusting you to save her, to save both of them." There's a knock at the door and Warren looks in the room.

2/3 Thu, 13 Mar Chapter 170 "Is it okay if I cin?" I turn and look at Quirin. Kennedy is his mate. It's up to him.

"Yes, Alpha. She's your daughter." Quirin says, not looking away from her, "I'll be right back. I'm going to go check on her bloodwork," I tell them, stopping to wrap my arms around my mate, Are you okay?' I ask him in the mind link.

His face is buried in my neck, so I know that he's trying to gain control of his emotions.

For the first time. I see why so many Alphas are afraid of Quirin. I saw what he's capable of, what he did to Jasper. He didn't just kill him, Yara, he tortured him, made him suffer, made him beg for death before he finally gave it to him. I understood his fury, I felt that way with Simon when he took you. I let the pack torture him because he hurt you. But I've never seen it in action. I've never seen another Alpha toy with someone they are furious with, someone they want to suffer. Thank the goddess that men like he and I have women like you and Kennedy," I hold my mate, letting him breathe in my scent until he finally pulls away, "I've attached my mind to her, even though it's a shallow link. Connor and Yorick have done the same. There are a lot of people in the waiting room holding on to our daughter," he tells me.

"Are you surprised? She was always loved by everyone. She is the best of both of us," I tell him, cupping his cheek. "Letgo check her bloodwork. I'll be right back," I tell him.

Several people stopon my way to get her bloodwork results, asking if she's okay. I spend a few minutes with each of them, letting them know that she's weak, but she's stable.

When I get to her office. I pull up the report. I'm not surprised to see that my daughter is deficient in many things. Ngraba a pen and then pull open drawers to get something to write on so I can make sure I don't forget anything that I need for her.

When I open a drawer in her desk, I see it. I read the results then put the information back before getting what I need.

I shake my head as I make my way back to her room. I begin injecting the different drugs and nutrients that she needs to help her heal and make her stronger. I cannot believe with everything that we've talked about recently that she never once mentioned that she's having a pup. She and I are going to have to have a serious conversation about that. "What did you say?" Quirin asks. When I look up, his eyes are intent on mine. I turn and look at my mate. "What did I say?" I ask him.

He raises an eyebrow. "Something about a pup?" I turn and look at Quirin. He looks shocked.

"You didn't know?" I ask.

He' "No 3/3 adness
