We arrived at the pack house an hour later.
Clarissa had fallen asleep at some point, so I had to take her straight to the Alpha house. As soon as I walked through the gates of the Alpha house, I saw Luna Vanessa pacing the front of the house while my father hovered nearby helplessly.
"Alpha!" the guard on duty called out, announcing my presence as he bowed to me.
"Oh!" Luna Vanessa took in shaky breaths, holding her chest. She nearly fell if my father had not held her. "Is she dead?"
"Of course not!" I chuckled. "She twisted her ankle, but she's fine now. She even slept off. Will you show me her room so I can put her down?"
Luna Vanessa nodded, gathering herself as she led the way to Clarissa's room.
I adjusted the blanket around Clarissa's shoulders, positioning her injured leg between two pillows before I moved away from her. Her breathing was steady now, the earlier pain on her face had now turned to fatigue.
