My Second Chance

Chapter 19: #19 Luna Problem

Sapphire's P.O.V

"This isn't funny Ryder." I smacked his muscular arm. He made no response. "Argghhh!" I groaned in frustration. I have been trying to pry Ryder's arm off my waist for about ten minutes. Yeah bitches, ten whole fucking minutes. "Ryder..." I whined, shaking his arm. He didn't even stir. His arm still held me in a possessive grip. I growled under my breath.

I grabbed half a glass of water I left on the bedside table. Without thinking twice, I splashed the water on him. He kept on sleeping like a log.

"Ryder?" Worry was starting to seep into my voice. "Ryder?" I asked worriedly, cupping his cheeks softly. He didn't answer and panic started to kick in. There's something wrong... Gwen said worriedly. I know. You think I don't know that? I growled. She whimpered. "Ryder? What's wrong? Answer me!" I growled, shaking him violently. I used my demon power to lift his arm. Yeah, That's how tight his grip was. "Ryder!" I slapped his right cheek. He kept on sleeping. Is he dead? OMG OMG... Gwen panicked. Shut up, I snapped. He was still breathing steadily, so he's not dead. I internally smacked myself. Really? Sapphire? You actually thought he was dead? Well, fuck. That shows my overreacting.

"Cole? Alec? Clover!" I yelled on top of my voice, hoping that they would somehow pick up my voice with their wolf hearing. I'm surprised I didn't wake the whole pack house. Oh right, I glanced at the table clock. It's already 10 in the morning. Isn't Ryder late for his chores already?

"Sapphire?" I heated Clover's soft voice that accompanied with knocking. "Just open the damn door and help me." I growled. Clover opened the door softly and stuck her head in. "Umm... The Alpha's room is actually restricted to-" I cut her off. "And I don't fucking care. Now go get Cole or Alex. Please, quickly." I pleaded her. She nodded and slipped out of the room again. Wait, Why was Clover's eyes red? I just noticed that. I groaned. What a nice friend I am. She has been crying and I just snapped at her.

"What's wrong?" Alec and Cole appeared at the room door in less than a minute. "Thank God. There's something wrong with Ryder." I looked at them with scared eyes.

They rushed to his side as if they knew what was going on. "It's getting worse." Cole mumbled. "I thought he had another week." Alec ran a hand through his hair. "What time did he sleep last night?" Cole faced me. "Around 3 to 4. Why?" I asked in a small voice. Cole cursed. "What's going on?" I growled at them. I'm getting impatient here....

Alec sighed. "Fuck. Just tell me." I growled. "You and curse words don't really fit together." Cole said with an amused look. "Why don't you take some curse words and shove them up-" Clover placed a hand on my shoulder before I could curse more. "Just tell us the problem Cole." She sighed. Right.... They used to be close.

"Fine. You guys can't tell anybody about this okay?" Cole looked at us with a serious look. "I'm waiting." I snapped. Alec and Cole both gave me a look. I growled in impatience. You can't blame me. There's something wrong with my mate and the two assholes were giving each other looks. Cole sighed.

"Okay, fine. You know how the biggest pack and how Ryder took the responsibilities of the Alpha at the age of-" I cut him off. "Tell me something I don't know. Just get time the fucking point." I growled. Wow, I should really wash my mouth with soap later. Cole shot me a pointed look and I narrowed my eyes at him. "Without a Luna...." Alec trailed off. "He'll weaken." I said, realization dawning me as I noticed the severity of the problem. Since, he holds so much responsibilities, he'll weaken without his Luna. "Yeah... he usually sleeps a day or two without waking up every month. It happened a week earlier this time." Cole frowned. "He's getting weaker than before." I whispered. "Yeah. Kinda like that. We don't let word get out cause other packs will probably use the opportunity to attack us. You know, the Alpha weak and everything." Alec shrugged. Guilt immediately weigh me down. "It's my fault." I groaned and Gwen whimpered. "No. It's not. I'm sure the Alpha won't want you to blame yourself. So why don't we go hang out and wait till he awakens?" Clover said soothingly. Heck, I even forgotten she was here. How nice it felt to have a friend next to you.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Okay." I answered, getting up and tucking him in. I looked at him lovingly for a second. "Sleep well." I whispered, pressing my lips to his forehead. Wait- Did I just say lovingly?! Yes you did, Gwen nodded proudly. It was just a slip of my tongue, I told myself. Yeah right, Drew piped up. Dang them...

But still... am I really falling in love in merely a few days time? Gwen and Drew might be right... might be... Hell yeah we are! Drew hooted. Honey, you do know that we can hear your thoughts right? Gwen grinned. I sighed in frustration and blocked them out. But I still could feel the feeling of victory they got.

"Don't worry Sapphire. He'll be fine." Alec reassured me and I nodded. "Go bath first okay? I'll meet you in my room." Clover hugged me. "Yeah. Thanks." I answered, walking towards the chest of drawers to find something to wear. As the three started to leave, I remembered something.

"Clover?" I called. "Yeah?" She asked, raising an eyebrow after spinning to face me. "Your eyes are red. We will talk about it." I said pointedly and she gulped.

Without another word, I slipped into the bathroom and closed the door behind me.
