The Last Royal Luna
(Book 2) – Chapter 22

“Hey! I can carry my own bag to the car!” I yelled as Edgar grabbed my bags and headed out of my room. I wanted to run after him but I knew as soon as I tried one of them would be all over me like I am a unable to take care of myself. “Stupid mates…Who needs em!” I huff as I followed them to the car.

“You just got out of the hospital early this morning and that was even against doctor’s orders so we will be taking care of you. Deal with it!” Asher growled out. I rolled my eyes and made my way to sit on the stairs while they loaded the car.

They were being completely crazy about all of it. I know this time was worse than the last but I was fine now. I felt fine other than needing more water than normal. They were being overbearing! They even tried to hand feed me breakfast before I took a bite out of Andrew’s hand. I got to finish my food with them glaring but I had my own spoon to feed myself. I call that a win.

“They are still at it, huh?” Melissa asked as she sat down.

“Yup and I am about to lose my cool.” One of them looked at me so I growled at them. I hated being treated like I couldn’t do anything.

“At least they aren’t trying to take you to the bathroom.” She was trying to cheer me up but it was not happening right now.

“You mean trying again. They did that first thing this morning and I slammed the door on the twins and bolted it shut. I can wipe my own butt. Thanks.”

“They did not?” She gasped. She knows that only girls go together not mates.

“Oh yea. Andrew was yelling about me hurrying up or he was butting the door in. I told him if he did it would be so long before having s*x he would be a born again virgin.” She laughed so hard at that she had tears falling down her cheeks.

“What is so funny, baby?” Alistair asked as he walked down the last load from the bedrooms.

“Oh nothing other than the boys will be bunking with you at the next hotel. Sorry not sorry.” She winked and he g*****d.

“What? Why?” He was upset. Oops.

“The boys need to stay alive and in one piece for the duration of this trip. With the way they are acting right now it won’t happen.” She got u and kissed his cheek. I could see him blushing while she whispered what I am assuming as dirty things. I giggled at them.

“Fine but you owe me Ryder.” I nodded in agreement.

“Maybe you should ride in our car.” She whispered at Alistair went to talk to my mates about room changes.

“Nah. They need the comfort and I am not a complete b***h. I just need some space to breath. They were already putting on sad faces when I told them I needed space after my heat and now this. I understand they just want what is best for me but why not ask me how I am feeling or what I am needing before assuming I am useless.” I could feel some tears coming on. Stupid emotions getting the better of me.

“It is going to be ok, Bestie. How about on the road to the new pack we hit up a theme park? Ride the scariest roller coasters and fill out stomachs with funnel cake!” She looked excited and Blue howled in agreement.

“We are on, baby cakes!” I winked at her but couldn’t stay excited when I heard the upset voices of my mates as they got closer.

“Gotta go. Love ya.” Melissa whispered as she ran to Alistair and hide behind him as he laughed. Great. I don’t want to deal with these guys one my own.

“We are not sleeping separate from you. What if something happens to you?” Blake stated with his hand on his h**s like he was in charge of everything for everybody. Damn I was not a nice person today.

“Yeah. My wolf has to be by you or he will lose his shit.” Kane added with a growl.

“Listen. Let me ask you a few questions and we will go from there ok?” I asked them as I stood up and walked toward them stopping in the middle of them so they could see my serious face.

“Deal.” Knox nodded.

“Ok so you are all doing everything for me because of what the doctor said, correct? And said doctor doesn’t fully understand what happened or what could happen because he has never taken care of a royal, right?”

They all hesitated before nodding. I saw them look at each other second guessing their decision but it only lasted a minute. After that their faces were set in stone like they were right in everything they have done.

“Ok so you guys must know how it all works, right? You know what will happen since the doctor doesn’t know or you wouldn’t know what you are doing correct?” They had no answer. “So you don’t know what is happening to me or how I feel. You are just guessing and it doesn’t matter what I say about it.”

“That isn’t true. We know you don’t feel good and are weak from what happened.” Andrew growled out before pleading for me to understand.

“Actual NONE of you have asked how I feel. You just assumed and made all you look like controlling assholes. No questions toward my feelings, my symptoms, and definitely not my needs or wants. So none of you know what to do for me.” Blue was growling in my head at them and me since she liked the attention but she was conflicted. She was the top Alpha and shouldn’t need taken care of. I tried to soothe her but she was too upset so she turned away from me.

The guys stared at me for a minute before apologizing at the same time. Asher ran over and hugged me tight as he nuzzled my neck. Edgar came from behind rubbing my lower back while whispering how crappy he had acted. The others fit where they could and kept saying how sorry they were.

“It is going to be ok. I am riding with you and you will see me every day. At night I will be staying with Melissa for girl time and some space because you made me feel useless and like I didn’t know my own body. Also we are stopping at a theme park for some big scary rides so get ready to scream, babies!” I chuckled at their faces. A few of them had huge smiles while others looks of terror. This was going to be a fun few days.
