The Rejected Luna Queen novel Chapter 59

Aurora's POV

I handed over a few drugs to Alpha Bane to help him get better and he took them from me and hesitated to take them.

"Come on, don't tell me the Alpha of the Blue Moon Pack is afraid of taking drugs," I mocked him, in a bid to get him to take the drugs but he just stared at it.

He had been taking those drugs for a very long time and while there was a massive improvement, he simply got tired of taking them. He had complained about it to me several times, threatening to toss the drugs all away so he could have some rest.

I had to remind him that those drugs were the reason why he could get any form of rest because the ache wouldn't have afforded him such a luxury. He knew it was the truth. He just had to take them.

He finally threw them into his mouth and swallowed them with the aid of a glass of water and his face was as strong as a stone. It was clear he didn't like it but yeah, no one ever liked to take drugs. I'd never seen anyone who did, all my life. It was just something very necessary for anyone who looked to recover faster after an ailment.

After he got done, I packed up the cases of the drugs, stood from where I sat and dropped them in his drawer. Then, I went right back across his chambers to where he sat and I sat there too.

"There's something that I'd love to discuss with you if you don't mind," I said to him.

He had been looking at me so intently all through the time that I'd been there and the stare began to make me uncomfortable.

It was at night and it felt so intimate. It was already bad enough that I was in the same room once again with him, doing my best to control my emotions as it was clear that I had begun to feel something for him. The way he stared at me seemed to suggest that he was out for something more and I didn't feel ready for it, especially with the news that I wanted to deliver to him.

"What is it that is bothering you?" He asked, looking so concerned, as he should. I had been looking after him for several days, and so it was only fair that he'd be bothered about anything that bothered me too.

I paused a little bit, thinking about the best way to break the news as I was certain that he wouldn't want that at all. It was something that had to happen eventually, no matter how he'd feel so I just decided to break the news to him anyway.

"Well, I'll be leaving this Pack to return to my Pack in two days. I thought it'd be best if I let you know on time so it wouldn't take you by surprise."
