The Wolf Who Saved Me

Reule didn’t know what to do. He carried Wren into the house. She only had a faint pulse, and her breathing was heavy.

‘What happened? She shifted just for a few minutes, then back into a human. Now, she is fighting for her life. I don’t understand,’ Reule thought.

The pack doctor came running. Doctor Castro was still gasping for breath when he reached to touch Wren’s wrist.

“This is not good. I think we have to rush her to the hospital,” Doctor Castro said, motioning for Reule to help him carry her to the car.

“Logan, prepare the car!” Reule ordered as he and Doctor Castro lifted Wren.

Reule sent the car flying as Doctor Castro monitored Wren’s pulse and heartbeat.

“Her pulse is still faint. This is not good. We might lose her along the way,” Doctor Castro said with a sound of worry in his voice.

Nana Lolita and Adriana started crying. It added more to the fear that Reule was feeling.

‘Focus, Reule! Focus! You need to reach the hospital without creating an accident,” the voice on his head ordered. It sounded like his father when he was training him back when he was young. But it was what kept him sane at this moment that he remembered what he needed to do.

When they arrived at the hospital, Doctor Castro yelled, “Out of the way! Out of the way! Prepare the bed and oxygen!”

Reule watched as the hospital staff took Wren to the emergency ward, placed her on the bed, and hooked her to some machines.

After a minute, a long beep went out from the EKG monitor. Wren went flatline.

“What happened? Doctor Castro, what is going on!?” Reule roared with his eyes turning dark out of anger.

Nurses rushed to him and tried to push Reule out of the emergency room as Doctor Castro tended to Wren. Nana Lolita and Adriana’s sobbing had grown louder, and Logan tried to control them for him to take them out.

Reule tried his best not to shift, so the nurses successfully took him out. But it took six people to be able to do that.

The head nurse approached him and said, “Alpha Reule, I know it’s scary and stressful but trust me. Doctor Castro would do everything just to save her. Now, please calm down and let Doctor Castro work.”

The Crescent Moon Hospital was a well-known hospital explicitly for werewolves. Reule was one of their benefactors and would donate a considerable amount of money yearly, so every employee knew him.

He always got a VVIP treatment, and the pack members always come as a priority among other patients. The employees were doing this not because he asked for it but because of his contribution. Without him, the hospital might have closed already.

Reule closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Earlier, out of his anger, he planned to kill every staff at the hospital for not doing their job. Now, he realized that it was not their fault and forced to trust them with Wren’s life.

It has been three hours, and still no word from Doctor Castro. Reule, Nana Lolita, Adriana, and Logan patiently waited outside the emergency ward. They were all stressed and worried.

Reule kept walking back and forth in the hallway. It was the only way he knew to control him from making a scene at the hospital. The last time he had been like this was when his parents died.

‘Why do I keep losing the people I care about? What must I do to prevent it from happening all the time?’ Reule thought.

He had never felt so helpless in his life. He had never been in a situation where all he could do was pray. Reule prayed for the moon goddess to listen to his prayers and not take Wren away.

Suddenly, Doctor Castro came out of the emergency room looking stressed and exhausted. All looked at him, hoping for good news.

“Well, currently, she is stable. Earlier, she kept going flatline every thirty minutes, so it took me time to tell you what was going on. We have to keep on reviving her. But to be honest, we still don’t know what is happening with her. We are running some tests on her, which we hope will help us understand and find a way to help her. But if I may ask what happened that had caused her to be in such state?” Doctor Castro asked.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Reule felt sad and guilty, then he replied, “It was my fault. I did not expect that it would affect her this much. Wren had been searching for his brother. I told her what information I had received. I told her that her brother got beaten to death. And after hearing the sad news, she ran into the forest, shifted as a werewolf, and back into a human before losing her consciousness. But doctor, she actually is unable to shift. This was only the second time that she was able to do it. ”

“Pour soul! Anyway, let’s wait for the results of the tests and see if it would help us. Maybe this is just a rare case of shifting into a wolf. You may see her after two hours if her vitals remain stable.”

Reule thanked Doctor Castro and apologized for his behavior earlier.

“Alpha Reule, you don’t have to apologize. It is understandable, and I might do the same if she was my daughter or my mate. But please relax, and I promised I would do everything I can to help her,” Doctor Castro said with a slight smile.

Reule forced a smile and nodded at him. When Doctor Castro left, Nana Lolita suddenly walked towards him and asked, “Senorita Wren shifted?”

Reule nodded. Nana Lolita’s eyes widened, and she continued asking, “Her brother was killed by who? Who could have done all of these to her?”

“Her own pack, Nana. Wren’s brother got sentenced to die by Conri because he did not tell him where she went,” Reule replied with a sad voice.

All was angry and sad at what the White Pack had done to Wren.

“They have caused her so much pain and suffering all for what? Just because she could not shift when she was there with them. How cruel is Alpha Conri! What a disgrace to his father! When Convell was the alpha, he did not do such a thing,” Nana Lolita yelled.

“Now, what are we going to do, Reule? How can we help her?” Adriana asked.

Reule was speechless. He also didn’t know what to do. Before he could answer them, an old woman’s voice interrupted their conversation by saying, “She will be fine. Just be patient and wait. Her soul separated from her body so she could find some answers about herself.”

All of them looked at the woman who was wearing a hospital gown. She obviously looked like one of the patients. She was smiling at them as if what was going on was just something normal.
