Chapter 71: A Baffling SightRameric's POV:It was hard to say what I was actually looking at right now. When I looked at the side of her at the wound from the previous day, it was baffling to a point. However, as I was studying it, it almost seemed as if it would have been healing quite nicely at this point. As I thought about it further, it was far too soon to heal according to the fact that this only happened the day before. She was a human after all. The next day was when you could tell if there were any signs of swelling and infections. What am I looking at? This can't be right! How was this possible? As I stood there, I ended up taking a few steps backward to get a better vantage point as I raised my hand and even started to rub my chin. Something about this situation was not adding up the way it should be. As I thought about how this could have been possible, I looked back at her. She was just lying there trying to figure out the reason for my reaction. Which is w
Chapter 72: Not Expecting ThatRameric's POVWhat was I to make of all this? Was I seeing something that was not really there? Was it not as healed as I had originally thought it was?! When Gladrian asked me his question, I was not sure what to think about the severity of his words. Despite my previous thoughts, he still seemed as if he was pleased with what he saw. I then looked between the both of them standing there, then looked over at her lying behind him looking back at all of us. Was she wondering what we were discussing as Gladrian's back was to her at this point? Was she aware of the condition of her wound? Did she know that it was as healed as I thought it was a moment before? That was when Gladrian continued in his statement breaking my concentration. "Well, I did not see any signs of infection or to mention, I did not see any discoloration of the skin around the wound either." Gladrian still spoke with a pleased tone at a low volume. "It is looking quite nice,
Chapter 73: This Is ConfusingAlasia's POV:If I had to say, this was confusing. I am not all that sure what to think about what's going on. As I looked around the room, there was no one other than the three of them standing there a short distance away. Who I might add would occasionally switch places as they talked among themselves. I wish I could hear what they were saying as I did not like it when people talked about me. However, they were using a tone that was too low for me to be able to hear from this position. What is it that they were saying? Occasionally one or even all of them would look over at me and I was beginning to think that it had something to do with my side. Was it worse than I thought? I remember getting injured and did not stay hurt all that long. If I can recall, I would have to say that this is the fastest that I have seemed to recover from anything. I remember when my horrible stepfather used to beat me when my mother was not looking, he would stri
Chapter 74: Explanation Soon ExpectedAlasia's POV:Was I not supposed to remove the stitches from my side all on my own? I know as I felt where my wound was, it was closed and healed as I have before. Granted, I have never had to deal with anything like this before, so it took longer than it usually had in the past, but I really did not see any issue with me taking care of it. I have always had to take care of things on my own with no help from anyone, so I did not see how this was much different. Was it really such a bad thing? It would have started to irritate me if I had left it there much longer. So I did what I had to and removed it. "Ummm, My Alpha Caine," the man said as he stood back up to his feet from being lower to the floor after he checked my side. "Well, ummm, Sir? Would ahhh ...? You might want to come and take a look at this."Could he not get a word out? Was it really that bad? As I looked from him to the other two men standing on the other side of me, th
Chapter 75: Who Is She?Rameric's POV:As I was carrying her in my arms over to the bathing basin, I was still shocked at what happened before now. How could it be that she was a descendant of some random werewolf and had been healed already? She was a human, just a weak and lowly human, there is no way that is possible, could it? Despite what my mind was thinking, I still could not shake the image that my eyes saw as I examined her skin earlier. I remember when she was lying there on the ground in the broken wagon cart and I saw the rail sticking deep into her flesh. How could it be healed by now? Nothing was making sense as she was sold to me as a human. Who was she, really? "Do you remember this?" I asked her as I stood there at the edge of the bathing basin.You could still see the steam coming from the surface of the water. Whoever Raiven had come in here, knew what they were doing when it came to getting the water ready. The water, from the looks of it, knew exactly
Chapter 76: Such A FoolAlasia's POV:I can not believe that I was such a fool to say such a thing. Why, oh why, would I tell him that I have a little brother? Why would I even think that he would care about anything like that? I was a slave after all. And if I recall, he told me that I belonged to him and no one else. I do believe he said that I would never see any of my family, ever again, or it was certainly implied! That is why I needed to get away from here so that I could rescue my little brother from that monster before the horrible thing happened to him. I knew I had taught him to swim but even he had his limits. If there was a current stronger than him, he might not manage it if he was already tired at that time. He would be no match for it, then he would drown. I tried but it was no use as I could not help it as the tears were falling uncontrollably down my face. What was I going to do now? I understood the fact that I was upset, but should I really have said wh
Chapter 77: She Seems StressedRameric's POV:Now by the looks of her, she seems as if she has a lot going on in her head due to the nature of everything in her mind. She seemed really stressed at that moment and the only thing I knew that could possibly help since we were already here, would be to have her soak in the nice hot water. I stood there in the water as I looked down at her bare and revealing features as her arms were pressed firmly up against the sides of her head. I knew I had a lot to think about what happened in the short amount of time she had been with me, but getting her to calm down was at the top of that list. "Are you ready?" I asked her in a calmer tone than I used earlier, knowing her head was hurting."Ready for what?" She asked me in return as she looked around once again, even looking at the water.There was still a gentle stream of steam coming off the water and it was quite nice as I was standing there with the water halfway up my legs. The thing I app
Chapter 78: Let's Wash UpRameric's POV:I made sure to hold her firmly in my arms as I was not sure if she had the strength to hold herself up all on her own just yet. Standing in front of me and not having to move is one thing. When you are forced to use your own strength to hold yourself up in the water is a completely different thing. I did not want her to submerge herself completely just yet. Well, not if she was not wanting to do that. I watched her intently, studying her every move, her every twitch as she started to relax in the water. Then as I looked at her, she did not seem to want to connect with my powerful gaze looking directly at her. What was she afraid of?After I was now seated on the bottom of the bathing basin still wearing half my clothing, she was lying there comfortably in my arms, and bare as can be. It was a sight to behold. She was my mate. One thing I did not think I would find, nor for it to be possible for me to find her so soon as it turned out
