The Luna’s Choice (Theo and Ayla) by Kat Silver -
Chapter 252
Chapter 252: Ayla
Alpha Anthony and Luna Aniya were gone most of the night. Jimmy said a couple of the guards saw them come back a few hours before sunrise. We decided not to disturb them. We could work out any more details regarding the pack alliance later. For now, we needed to get the rest of the leaders on our side.
We were deciding who to speak with next when there was a knock on our suite door. Theo and I looked at each other curiously. Theo went to see who it was to find Alpha Vincent and Beta Aaron on the other side.
“Forgive the intrusion, Alpha Theo,” Alpha Vincent said politely. “We understand you are planning to set up meetings with us all today. However, we just got done speaking with Alpha Anthony.”
Theo nodded knowingly and welcomed them in.
“Luna Ayla, we apologize for our impatience,” Alpha Vincent said when he saw me in my robe.
“It’s okay,” I replied. “Trust me. I understand your curiosity. Do you mind if I take a moment to get dressed?”
“No, of course not,” Beta Aaron rushed. “Please, by all means.”
“Thank you, gentlemen.”
I retreated to our room and quickly dressed, dragging a brush through my hair and throwing it up in a cl*p. When I returned, the men were all speaking quietly together. Theo sensed my presence and turned his attention to me.

“Alpha Anthony and Luna Aniya have been speaking with the others,” Theo informed me. “They have told them what you did for Luna Aniya.”
“And a little about some kind of sisterhood or something,” Beta Aaron said. “And something about a prophecy that will save our species.”
“That makes it seem a bit severe,” I said as I joined Theo on the couch. “But yes, the Moon Haven Order has been protecting information along those lines for centuries.”
The two men looked at each other seriously. I noticed that Beta Aaron seemed on edge. His posture was tense. Completely opposite of the laid-back nature I was used to seeing on him.
“Alpha Anthony said that you were able to command Luna Aniya to shift for the first time,” Alpha Vincent said. “I’m sure I don’t have to say that after yesterday, that act will help in your favor today.”
“That’s not why I did it,” I rushed. “It was a consideration, of course. But I helped because I could. Because everyone deserves their wolf.”
Vincent smiled warmly. “I assumed as much,” I replied. “Which is why we are here.” He glanced at Beta Aaron. “We would like to know what the limitations of your command abilities are.”
“I’m not sure,” I said honestly. “Honestly, you all are learning all of this at the same time I am. I only found out I could command a few months ago. Much of this information is tied to our family bloodlines. Sister Mona would have a better idea. Although, she likes to talk around the question sometimes.”
“I’ve sent someone to retrieve her already,” Theo informed them. “She should be here any…”
Another knock on the door interrupted him.

“That’s probably her, now,” I said with a chuckle.
Theo let her in. He offered her a cup of coffee and she settled in with us. We took a little time to briefly explain who she and the Moon Haven Order were, and what she believed our next move should be The whole time we were talking, Beta Aaron seemed to be getting more and more tense. He wasn’t exactly agitated, but he was definitely anxious about something.
“Is everything alright, Beta Aaron,” I asked gently when Mona got to a stopping point.
He looked at me in surprise and then a little sheepishly. He glanced at Alpha Vincent who nodded his approval of something.
“We were theorizing,” he began, “if you can command someone to take their own life, would you be capable of commanding another to keep theirs?”
My brow furrowed. “I’m not sure what you mean,” I stated.
Beta Vincent reached into his pocket and pulled out a picture. He handed it to me and Theo. It depicted a little girl with dark brown ringlets and bright blue eyes. She was smiling fiercely in the image, showing the gaps from her missing baby teeth as she hugged Beta Aaron.
“My niece, Renee,” he explained. “She was diagnosed with a congenital heart condition last year. We have been trying every possible treatment we can find, but she hasn’t been improving. Our doctors don’t think she’ll make it to her tenth birthday.”
“I am so sorry, Beta Aaron,” I urged, my heart aching for him.
Alpha Vincent rested his elbows on his knees. “It’s not just his niece,” he said. “Her diagnosis hit the pack house hard. So I started looking

into our healthcare system to help them as much as I could. That’s when I noticed that we’ve seen an uptick in these kinds of conditions, as well as other degenerative illnesses, throughout our population over the past fifteen years or so.”
“That’s concerning,” Theo agreed, sitting up straighter. “I’ve done the same since my father’s diagnosis. We have experienced a similar trend. However, it wasn’t enough to be too alarming. Our own pack has continued to grow in that time, so I contributed it to that.”
“Your pack is tied to your blood,” Sister Mona interjected. “I think if you make some inquiries, you may find that other packs are having the same issues as the Dawnfall Pack.”
“But what can we do?” I asked, worried that they were expecting the impossible from us.
“I know it sounds insane,” Alpha Vincent said, “but we’d like you to try commanding Renee to heal.”
