Triplet Alphas Gifted Luna

Chapter 49 Wolfsbane

“What’s going on, doctor?” Alpha Ulric said.

“It’s the wolfsbane,” Dr. Boman said. “I don’t know if a pregnancy would have taken hold, but the wolfsbane reacted to the werewolf semen inside her. It made her body identify it as poison, and now it has to expel it. This is a bad time to be losing more blood. We don’t have any more to give her.”

“Would the blood of unshifted wolves work?”

“Maybe,” Dr. Boman said, thinking. “I can test it before we transfuse it into the future Luna.”

“I’ll send out a call for any unshifted wolves, see if anyone is a match, and will donate,” Alpha Ulric said. His eyes glazed over as he mind linked the entire pack. He informed them their future Luna needed blood from an unshifted wolf. He told them the blood type, and if anyone could donate, come to the pack doctor immediately.

“Was I pregnant?” Thea said. Her voice was weak and raspy, but they had no trouble hearing her with their werewolf senses.

“Luna,” Dr. Boman said. He and the Alpha walked over to her. The triplets were sitting beside her, holding onto her, eyes red from crying. She was on a new bed. “If I’m right, you were a virgin before the mating ceremony?” “Yes,” Thea said.

“Then it had only been thirty-six hours. It can take up to ten days before you become pregnant. It takes time for the sperm to travel to the egg and fertilize it. Then it takes time for the fertilized egg to implant, and that’s only if you recently ovulated. It’s unlikely that happened before the wolfsbane reacted. Right now, your system is trying to flush out what it sees as poison.”

“Would I have been pregnant if this didn’t happen?”

“There’s no way to know for sure if you were or would have been,” Dr. Boman said. “It was too early.”

“Did this cause permanent damage? Can I still have pups in the future?” It took all her energy to speak, but she had to know. The triplets looked at Dr. Boman for his answer.

“I don’t know. Something like this, we’ll have to wait and see.” The triplets felt Thea’s heartache immediately. “You’ll have to wait until your body heals before you can try. Did you hear that, future Alphas? You cannot put your werewolf semen inside her until she’s healed, and we know the wolfsbane is completely out of her system.”

“Yes, doctor,” they said in unison.

“Luna, the more immediate danger is that you’re losing blood, and you don’t have a lot to lose,” Dr. Boman said. Just then, a group of parents and their children knocked on the door.

“I’ll be back as quickly as I can,” Dr. Boman said. He hurried away.

“We want to help,” the group said.

“Follow me,” Dr. Boman said.

He called in his nurses to start taking blood from the children. “Only a quarter pint each,” he said to the nurses.

He took the first donation and put a bit on the sheet with Thea’s blood. He looked at it under a microscope.

He put the next bag on and repeated the process. A nurse brought in several more. Lizzy burst into the room with Misty in tow.
