Wren hesitated, her voice trembling as she said, "Luna, I don't have the number for the new pack doctor."

Selene rubbed her temples, trying to stay calm. "Call Gamma Storm," she instructed firmly.

Wren immediately dialed Storm, who had just entered the pack house. The moment he heard about Leo's condition, he rushed upstairs to the children's room.

"Selene," Storm called out as he entered.

Selene, seated beside Leo, looked up. She stood quickly, relief flickering on her face at Storm's

presence.

"Call the new doctor right away," she said, her voice steady but laced with urgency. "Leo is burning up."

Storm wasted no time, pulling out his phone and contacting the pack's new doctor. Within ten minutes, the doctor arrived at the pack house, carrying his medical bag.

The doctor examined Leo, his expression thoughtful. "It's unusual," he remarked. "He doesn't have any symptoms of a cold or cough. What could be causing this fever?"

Selene's gaze met Storm's, and he immediately pressed the doctor. "That's exactly why you're here. Figure it out."

The doctor scribbled something onto a prescription pad before turning back to Selene. He handed the paper to Storm and bowed slightly to her.noveldrama

"I've prescribed medication that should help bring the fever down. It's likely just a reaction to the seasonal change. He should recover soon."

Selene gave the doctor a curt nod, though her attention remained on her son. As the doctor left, Storm stepped aside to call Kane and inform him about Leo's condition. Afterward, he headed out to fetch the prescribed medicines.

Selene sat back down beside Leo, her hand brushing lightly against his forehead. Luna crept closer, her small arms wrapping around her mother in a hug.

"Mommy, Leo's shaking!" Luna cried, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Selene pulled her daughter into her lap, stroking her hair to comfort her. "He'll be fine, Luna,” she her voice calm but firm. "Your brother is strong, just like you."

Luna sniffled, nodding against her mother's chest. Her bond with Leo was different-deeper. As twins, they shared an unspoken connection that made them inseparable.

Selene glanced back at Leo, her heart heavy. Determined to ease his discomfort, she stood and headed to the bathroom. Moments later, she returned with a bowl of lukewarm water and a small cloth.

Wren stepped forward. “Luna, let me help you with that," she offered, motioning toward the bowl.

But Selene shook her head. "No. I'll do it. He needs his mother right now."

Sitting at the edge of the bed, Selene dipped the cloth into the water, wrung it out, and gently placed it

on Leo's burning forehead. Luna watched silently, her wide eyes fixed on her mother.

Selene wiped Leo's arms and legs, her movements careful and soothing. Once she was done, she tucked him under two warm blankets, hoping it would help regulate his temperature.

Suddenly, the door swung open with a loud creak. Selene turned sharply to see Kane entering the room, his face taut with worry.

"How is he now?" he asked as he strode toward the bed, his eyes locked on Leo.

Selene straightened up and replied, "The doctor said he should be fine. Storm went to get the medication."

Kane sat down beside her, his hand reaching out to touch Leo's forehead. His jaw tightened as he felt the heat radiating from his son's skin.

"Storm already told me," Kane said, his voice low. "He'll be back soon with the medicine."

Selene nodded, her gaze dropping back to Leo. She reached for the bowl to change the water, but as she stood, a wave of dizziness washed over her.

She swayed unsteadily, and before she could catch herself, Kane was on his feet, his strong arms wrapping around her waist to keep her from falling.

"Selene,” he said firmly, his concern evident.

She blinked rápidly, trying to clear her vision as her head swam. Slowly, her balance returned, and she stood upright, leaning lightly against Kane for support.

"I'm fine," she murmured, her voice soft. "It happens sometimes. Don't worry about me."

But Kane didn't look convinced. His hands moved to cup her cheeks, his dark eyes searching hers. "How often does this happen?” he asked, his voice quieter now, almost tentative.

Selene opened her mouth to answer, but before she could, his gaze flickered with realization. His hands stilled against her face as he whispered, "Are you... pregnant?"
