Chapter 58 : APOLOGIZE
Luna's eyes opened as she took a deep breath, but she quickly closed them again due to the white bright light directly going into her eyes.
Luna slowly opened her eyes again, letting her eyes adjust to the light by blinking as she noticed a white ceiling and realized she was back in the hospital.
Luna's expression revealed how badly she wanted to cry because, no matter what, she was always the one who ended up in the hospital, making her feel as if something was wrong with her destiny and she had bad luck following her.
Luna took a deep breath and tried to sit, but she just groaned in pain as she moved her hand and noticed a hand next to her.
"Dra-" Luna couldn't speak because her mouth was dry as she gulped and moved Draco's hand.
Luna smiled as she looked at Draco, who was sitting on the chair and resting his head on the bed.
"I am up," a small whisper from Draco was heard as Luna saw her mate sit and noticed how Draco had bags under his eyes and a bad complexion.
"YOU ARE UP!" Draco yelled, making Luna flinch, as he stood up and ran out of the hospital room, perplexing Luna.
Draco reappeared a few seconds later, accompanied by a doctor and two nurses, who began to examine Luna, while Luna stared at Draco, who was standing near the door, biting his nails.
Luna could tell Draco was nervous and scared, but she couldn't blame him because she had numerous scars and was frequently hospitalized.
"How are you today, Mrs. Luna?" The doctor inquired as the nurses assisted Luna in sitting with her back still resting on the pillow behind her. Luna opened her mouth to speak, but her throat felt scratchy as the nurse poured some water into a cup and gave her a straw to drink. "M-My body hurts, and I-I feel weak," Luna stuttered out as the doctor quickly scribbled it down while smiling at her and nodding his head. "You need a lot of rest to recover quickly," the doctor said as he patted Luna's head and walked out of the room, followed by the nurses. Luna cast a glance at Draco, who sat back in his chair and kissed her knuckles.
"I missed you so much, my love," Draco said as Luna looked at him, guilty because she knew she wouldn't be this hurt if she hadn't tried to save Alyssa.
"I-I am sorry. You must have been concerned." Draco stood up and sat on the bed, gently touching Luna's forehead with his as he whispered, "I am the one who needs to apologize for not believing in you," which made Luna smile.
"I-I told you I-I was in d-danger." Luna spoke as she smiled while Draco groaned and nodded his head as he let Luna go and sat back in the chair, resting his head on the bed.
Draco looked at Luna and sighed as he said, "We captured those morons, and they're in jail."
"Are Juliet and Alyssa all right?" Luna inquired, while Draco nodded his head and replied, "They are doing much better and are at home," prompting Luna to bite her bottom lip nervously.
"How long was I-I unconscious?" Luna questioned worried as Draco smiled sadly as he replied, "For almost 2 days. Today is the third day. It's just that you're becoming a vampire, so your body wanted to heal on its own, and most of your scars have faded."
"Are you saying I was in d-deep slumber?" Luna questioned, stuttering, as Draco sighed, nodded his head, and whispered, "Yeah you were," which made Luna sad because she could tell everyone must have been scared and worried.
Luna inquired, "Y-you didn't go insane, right?" as Draco lightheartedly laughed, as Luna could tell he had, but Draco shook his head, much to her surprise.
"No, it was your heartbeat that kept me steady, but I stayed up at night or woke up whenever you were in pain and held your hand to tell you I am here," Draco replied, making Luna smile as she felt fortunate to have Draco as her mate.
Luna stared at Draco as she played with his hair while he closed his eyes to relax, making Luna feel better seeing her mate next to her.
"What will become of those guys?" Draco sat up straight and tightened his grip on Luna's hand, staring her in the eyes.
"Baby, don't be concerned about those fools." Draco spoke as Luna sighed and held Draco's hand, saying, "Look Draco, I just want to know what's going to happen now," causing Draco to sigh.
As Luna licked her lips and nodded her head, Draco said, "Okay, for now, those guys are captured, and we're torturing them to find out who sent them to hurt you guys."
"Did you find out who gave them the order?" Draco sighed, shook his head, and said, "We're trying, but those morons are stubborn as hell," causing Luna to sigh once more.
"I am very concerned about what will happen next," Luna said, her eyes welling up with tears as she stared at Draco.
Draco sat down on the bed and gently hugged Luna, saying, "I am here for you, and I would never let anyone hurt you again," as Luna rested her head on Draco's shoulder.
"Look, moon, I want you to stop worrying about everything right now and just focus on your health. We may face many challenges ahead, and I don't want you to leave my side," Draco said solemnly as he kissed Luna's neck, while Luna sniffed and nodded.
As Draco hummed, Luna sniffed and said, "I will stay by your side no matter what."
Draco let go of Luna as he helped her lay down, holding her hand as he properly covered Luna's body with the blanket.
"No matter what happens in the future, remember I will always love you because only a vampire can love you forever," Luna laughed as she kissed Draco's hand.
Luna spoke up. "You always say that," Draco replied, laughing, "I know, and I mean it," as Luna nodded when a knock on the door was heard.
"COME IN," Draco yelled as the door swung open, revealing Loukas, Alyssa, Juliet, Alex, and Ronin as Draco smiled.
"Are the others still not here?" Draco inquired as Loukas shook his head and stated, "Jace is keeping guard and asking questions from the prisoner and said he will visit soon while mom, dad, uncle, aunt, and our friends said they will visit later because we can't all visit Luna at the same time she needs to rest" as Draco nodded in understanding.
"How are you doing, Luna?" Alyssa inquired as she held Luna's hand sadly, to which Luna replied, "a lot better seeing you and Juliet here," while Juliet smiled and also held Luna's hand.
"You scared me a lot," Juliet said as tears welled up in her eyes as he gently hugged Luna, while Alyssa hugged Luna as well, and they both cried in her arms.
"We are sorry for not believing in you, Luna," Ronin said. We apologized to Alyssa and Juliet, but I feel like I owe you an apology and even a thank you for saving my mate," Luna smiled at him as she nodded. "It's okay, and I would have been extremely sad if I hadn't done anything," Luna said as she looked at Ronin, who smiled and nodded.
Loukas said, "I want to apologize as well for not believing you girls and pushing you three away even though you were right." As Luna shook her head.
"It isn't your fault because we were attacked out of nowhere," Luna said, smiling at Loukas, who hummed sadly.
Draco, Loukas, and Ronin felt guilty for not believing their mates and pushing them away even though they were correct.
"We will get to the bottom of this situation and find out who is behind it all." Loukas spoke as he looked at Draco and Ronin, who nodded in agreement.
"Just be careful no matter what," Juliet said as she let go of Luna and stood next to Ronin, holding hands.
"I agree with Juliet; they are extremely dangerous and they give me goosebumps." Alyssa spoke while sitting on the sofa with Loukas.
"They tried to stop your powers," Luna said, holding Draco's hand. "I knew the guy wearing that thing wasn't Draco, but seeing how his powers were blocked scared me as well," Draco hummed.
"That was Jace, and he said it was terrifying but a good experience because he couldn't transform into his wolf form or use his earth powers," Draco explained as he sat on the bed.
"It must have hurt, and who were the other two people?" Luna asked. Draco cast a glance at Loukas, who sighed and nodded.
"Um, Cole and Alexander," Draco said as Luna's eyes widened as she attempted to sit and Draco assisted her.
"How come you let him do this? He must have been terrified," Luna said as she held Draco's hand, while Draco smiled sadly as he hugged Luna.
"He wanted to do this for you three," Draco said calmly. We were going to tell dad to join us, but Alexander begged us to let him help, so we had no choice," Luna looked at Alyssa and Juliet, who nodded. "I-Is he alright? He's not hurt, is he?" Loukas replied, "He is doing great and he will be here soon to meet you." As Luna sighed relievedly.
"Luna, don't worry too much because the doctor told you to rest," Ronin said as he looked at Luna, who shook her head.
"I am doing better, but I want to meet Alex to see if he is okay." Alyssa and Juliet are right in front of me, so I know they're fine, but I don't know what's going on with Alex, which worries me," Draco sighed. "I'll call Jace and tell him to come here as soon as possible so you don't have to worry." Loukas chuckled as he took out his phone and exited the hospital room, leaving Alyssa and Juliet staring at Luna. "Luna, stop worrying and rest so you can recover as soon as possible because you were the most injured." Alyssa spoke as she stood up and took Luna's hand in hers, while Luna nodded. Draco kissed Luna's forehead and sighed as he looked at Ronin and back at Luna.
"Can you both stay with Luna while I discuss about the prisoners with Ronin and Loukas?" Draco questioned Alyssa and Juliet, and when they nodded, Ronin and Draco walked out of the room Luna was in, and they saw Loukas sitting on the waiting chair as he hung up the phone.
"Is Jace on his way?" Ronin inquired, to which Loukas replied, "Yeah, and he said he needs to tell us something and he will reach soon." while Ronin whispered back "That is fantastic."
"Did the prisoners say anything?" Draco inquired. While Loukas shook his head and replied, "No bro, we tried a lot but those assholes aren't saying anything," Draco sighed sadly.
"As a result, we have no leads." Draco sighed as he sat on the chair, sadly rubbing his face.
"We just can't stay still," Ronin said. Our mates were badly hurt as a result of them, and all we could do was wait and watch," Loukas and Draco agreed.
"I fully agree with Ron. "Luna is still in the hospital, Alyssa and Juliet still have bruises on their bodies, and Alexander has a bandage on his arm as a result of those idiots," Draco said, as Loukas nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, so we have to do something about it," Loukas said, while Ronin and Draco nodded in agreement.
Ronin noticed Jace and Alexander and said, "Oh Jace and Alex," as he stood up and approached them.
Loukas said, "That's great you're here," as Jace smiled and hugged Draco.
"Alex, go inside because Luna is worried about you, and please look after her," Draco said, as Alexander nodded happily and said, "I will do my best."
Alexander entered the room where Luna was resting as Draco, Jace, Loukas, and Ronin sat on the chairs waiting for the door to close.
"So, what's the deal?" Draco spoke as Jace smirked and said, "I found a lead," prompting Loukas to whisper, "No way," As Ronin and Draco nodded in surprise.
"Yeah, and his name is Nathaniel." Jace spoke as Loukas questioned, "What else did you find?" Jace sighed while he replied "He is the one who sent these guys. I just heard those guys say his name when no one was around, so I'm not sure what to think yet."
"Are you saying that not even the other prisoners are aware of what you discovered about Nathaniel?" Ronin inquired as Jace hummed and replied, "Yeah, I spied on them and figured it out, so no one knows except us four," as Draco, Loukas, and Ronin hummed happily.
"What are we waiting for?" "Let's go find him," Draco said as Jace shook his head and held his arm.
"I think for now we should lay low and let Luna recover, and later tell my parents to keep the girls safe with Maya and Ruby protecting them while we go on the hunt," Jace said, as Loukas agreed while humming.
"No, Jace, stay with our mates and we'll go after him." Ronin expressed his desire for Juliet, Alyssa, and Luna to be safe because Jace had experience with all this.
"Done, but we have to wait for now, right?" Draco inquired, to which Jace replied, "Yeah, we wait until Alex, Luna, Alyssa, and Juliet recover," to which Loukas, Ronin, and Draco agreed.
They all knew they had to wait for their mates to recover, but once Nathaniel was found, they would take their revenge and put an end to it all.00000000
