The Heartless Alpha’s Beloved Luna

Chapter 399

I tried to occupy myself with a book on gardening that I found on the shelf, but the words all blurred together. I spent more time looking out the window than actually reading.

Eventually, though, I saw Sebastian’s car pull into the driveway. I jumped to my feet, ignoring the way my ankle protested, and hobbled over to the door. I flung it open just as Sebastian came hurrying up the steps with a bundle in his arms.

“Oh, thank Gods,” I said, throwing my arms around Bjorn. He was awake but just barely, soaking wet and shivering.

But he was alive.

“Gideon found him,” Sebastian breathed as I took Bjorn into my arms, checking him for injury. Thankfully, I found none. He was cold and exhausted and his clothes were plastered to his skin from the rain, but Bjorn was uninjured.
