Aria's POV
My eyes fluttered open.
The harsh scent of bleach and medicine burned my nose. I was lying in a hospital bed.
"You're awake?"
I turned my head. Edgar, Julian’s grandfather, stood by my bedside.
His voice was thick with worry.
"How do you feel? Someone call the doctor, now!" He leaned in closer. "You have no idea how worried we all were."
My throat felt like sandpaper, making it impossible to speak.
From the corner of the room, Fiona let out a sharp, nasty laugh.
"She didn't come to visit her own son, so the Moon Goddess punished her. This is what she deserves."
"Fiona, just shut up!" Edgar snapped. His powerful Alpha aura flared for a second.
His stern eyes glared at her, and she instantly shut her mouth.
At that moment, the pups stepped forward.
