The Luna’s Last Drop Chapter 06

The Luna’s Last Drop Chapter 06

Kieran’s shrill cry seemed to tear straight out from 

the depths of his soul. 

My body went completely limp. He caught me and 

dropped heavily to his knees, pressing hard 

against the oozing puncture wound on my arm in 

a frantic attempt to stop the bleeding. 

The blood wouldn’t cease flowing. Every piece of 

gauze was soaked through the moment it was 

placed, and fresh dressings were instantly dyed a 

glaring crimson. 

Staring at the scattered scraps of paper and the 

monitor blaring harsh alarms, the healer looked 

utterly defeated. “Code blue! Administer 

epinephrine! Now!” 

Kieran grabbed the healer by the collar, savage 

amber light blazing in his eyes. “Save her! She has to live! I order you all to do whatever it takes to 

bring her back!” 

The healer trembled violently in his grip, his teeth 

chattering. But this time, for the first time, het 

actually roared back at the Alpha. “I told you, 

Alpha! I told you her body couldn’t take any more 

of this! This is all your doing!” 

“She has stopped breathing! We are already doing 

everything we can to revive her!” 

“Shut up!” Kieran bellowed. “I want her alive! She 

didn’t die in that rogue attack, and she’s not dying 

now! She carries the Moon Goddess‘ blessing! She 

promised she would stay by my side forever!” 

No one answered him. The ECG trace on the 

monitor grew flatter and flatter. 

He stumbled back to the bedside and gripped my 

shoulders tightly, biting his lip so hard that blood 

seeped out. “Vee, wake up. I swear I’ll never draw 

your blood again, never let anyone lay a hand on 

you. I was wrong about Elena… I’m so sorry!” 

He rested his forehead against my cold hand, his whole frame shaking violently, yet my limbs. 

remained cold and stiff without the slightest 

response. 

“Daddy…” Scarlett stood in the doorway, still 

clutching the pen tight in her grasp. Her face was 

as pale as paper, and the bloodstain on her dress 

had long dried into a dark brown mark. 

She glanced at me then turned to Kieran, “Is Mommy still angry with me?” 

Kieran slowly turned his head. The look in his eyes 

made Scarlett step back in fear. In the past, he 

would always rush to comfort her the second she 

cried, but now his gaze was fixed firmly on the pen. 

in her hand. 

Frightened, Scarlett hid the pen behind her back and fled away. 

A nurse happened to pass by in the hallway. 

Scarlett reached out and tugged at her sleeve as 

usual, “Excuse me, I want a cup of warm milk.” 

The nurse stopped in her tracks. She looked down 

at Scarlett, her face expressionless, but her eyes 

as cold as ice. “Young miss, your mother just died. There’s no warm milk for you right now. Go away.” 

Scarlett froze on the spot, utterly stunned. 

Then she turned and went back to find Kieran. 

“Daddy…” She hesitated. “What about my dance rehearsal tomorrow? Selene said she would go 

with me.” 

Kieran didn’t look up. He was clutching the 

sweater I had taken off, his knuckles white from 

the strain. 

After waiting for a long while, Scarlett ran outside. 

alone. She tripped and scraped her knee on the corridor floor. Sniffling softly, she called out 

instinctively, ‘Mommy… 

The hallway stood empty and silent. The only 

scent lingering in the air was the metallic smell of 

blood drifting out from the operating room. 

Scarlett waited and waited, yet no one came to 

hold her or check on her injury. 

Finally, she burst into tears.
