Moonlight Reflections

Hearing someone coming through the door, Luca looks over and sees his brother Constantino and Giovanni bringing the table in, with Angelo Moretti carrying the chair behind him. Emma follows her mate, Angelo, with a box in her arms. Luca tells the guys to place the table and chairs near the window. So, they do what he asked. Emma puts the box on the table, and Luca says thank you to them. He notices they are looking at his mate.

Luca says to them, "She's under sedation for the pain but also to help her with the healing," the Alpha explained to them. "Other than that, it's a wait and sees how she goes daily," he said.

His brother replies, "Luca, she will make it. The Moon Goddess will not take her away from you now that you have found her after all these years," he says as he comforts and encourages his brother. We are all praying to the Moon Goddess for her to get better. We can't wait to meet her," he says to him.

Luca replies, "Thanks, everyone, for the support. I appreciate it, and Rosa will as well, hopefully, when, and l mean when she wakes up. Until then, l will spend as much time as l can with her", he said to them.

Giovanni replied, "Alpha, we understand. Ask us for help whenever you need it, and we will be there," he said to Luca.

"Thanks, Giovanni; l will. I appreciate your help with this. In the meantime, it is time for me to catch up on work before dinner," he tells them.

They all said, "Okay, see you later," and left the room to return to their duties before dinner.

A light knocked on the door no sooner than Luca had sat at the table and done his work. Dr Greco-Mancini entered the room and informed him that his bed had arrived. "Where would you like the bed to go?" she asked him as two orderlies entered the room carrying the bed and a mattress.

"Um, please sit on the other side of the table, guys, and thanks," he said to them.

"Yes, Alpha, and you're welcome. Anything for our Luna," they said to him. They placed the bed where he wanted it to go while the Doctor checked on Rosa, and then the three left the room.

Before she left, Luca asked her, "How is she?" he inquired.

Dr Greco- Mancini replied, "She's doing well, but we will take it one day at a time for now," she said to him.

Luca responds, "Okay, what about the medication that Emma found at her house?"

Dr Greco-Mancini replies, "Well, apparently, she took the tablet form every morning, so she will need one tomorrow morning. But I would like to have the tablet evaluated before giving it to her tomorrow morning. Is that okay with you? It's just a theory at this stage, but when you said you could not scent her when you first met, is that right?"

Luca replies, "Yes, that's right. Why, what are you thinking?"

Dr Greco-Mancini replied, "I'm thinking, and this is a theory. But I think that the medication that she has been taking might be a scent blocker. " She explained her theory to him as she continued, "As I understand it, there is a letter addressed to you as the Alpha of the pack. It would be best if you read it first. It could hold the explanation for everything that we looked for," she said to him.

Luca looks at the Doctor and says, "You think that could cause it, and by her family, why would they do that?"

The Doctor replied, "Who knows, maybe the letter could explain it, so read it and let me know as soon as possible. It could be helpful with her treatment, okay?"

Luca replies, "Yes, okay, I will read it. I had better make up my bed before dinner so l can read it," he said to her.

Dr Greco- Mancini replies, "Yes, that's fine with me. I will see you later. Please call me Arianna; there will be less confusion," she said.
