Shifted Fate (by Alicia S Rivers) novel Chapter 636

My eyes opened to the sun shining directly into my pupils. I groaned, and my hands shot to cover them. “Welcome back to the living, Luna.” A voice, one I didn’t have the brainpower to identify, called from my side.

I cracked an eye, grunting again with the brightness of the lights, and waited for my eye to adjust before the form of the doctor took shape. “Doc…I’m alive?” The question slipped out, and he laughed.

“Yeah. You are.”

“Then, can you turn down the Goddess bright lights in the room? I can’t see shit.” I groaned as I took stock of my body. Every atom that was in my body was brimming with power and pain. So much pain.

The doctor laughed, and I heard steps receding, and the room darkened. I cracked open my eyes to see that the doctor had turned off most of the lights, leaving a small lamp on the med cart still on. “How’s that?”

“Better.” I sighed and allowed both of my eyes to adjust to the room. “Where is everyone?” Worry clamped a fist around my throat. “My parents? Did they make it? Is the fighting over? How many did we lose?”

The doctor came back to my side and waved me down. His hand patted my shoulder in reassurance. “The Alphas, including the king, are directing the mess of the remnants of the packs we had here. Your mother, the Luna, is setting up for the ceremony. Amd the rest of the pack are helping with the sorting.”

“The sorting?” I questioned, and I saw his face pale. “You wanna know what? Nevermind.” He laughed and helped me up when he saw me trying to sit up again. The whirl of the bed motor, and his arms, helped me into a better position so I could look at his face. “How am I?”

He snorted. “Better than you should be.” He checked my vitals and slid the blood pressure cuff on.

I groaned. “Are you really going to make me ask?”

He shook his head, but I saw the smile on his face. “What do you want to know?” He wrote a few things down on a clipboard. “How are you alive?” He leveled me with a look. “I honestly don’t know. I wasn’t there, but no one has stopped talking about what you did.”

“What did I do?” I rolled to my side so I could face him fully.
