Chapter 506 Medicine Has No Borders


    Tessa spoke up first. “When are you heading back? You should rest here tonight.”


    “No need. I''ve made the decision, and there''s a lot I need to take care of.”


    Michael''s tone was firm. Things in Yalvaria were going to getplicated.


    The Werewolf Council would never approve the relocation easily. After all, the


    Werewolf Medical Organization''s research funding had long relied on the council''s


    budget.


    But the council also controlled the Moonstone mines in Eclipse Hollow—while the


    Organization held the only known cure for the mine''s radiation-rted illness.


    That delicate bnce of power gave Michael the confidence to go against them.


    “If there''s anything you can''t handle, tell me. I''ll find a way to help,” Tessa said.


    Michael smiled. “No need to worry. Even the president of the Yalvaria Council


    wouldn''t darey a hand on me.” He was prepared to take full responsibility for


    this choice.


    Tessa was genuinely moved.


    This old foreigner was willing to give up everything—for medicine.


    “Michael, you—” Samuel didn''t even know what to say anymore.


    He could only imagine the pressure involved in relocating the entire Werewolf


    Medical Organization here.


    After dinner together, Tessa and Samuel drove Michael to the airport.


    “You brat,” Michael said before leaving, “handle things properly here. I want the


    relocation done as soon as possible.”


    It was a massive undertaking.


    Coordinating the Organization''s headquarters and resources would take time.


    “Don''t worry. With me here, it''ll get done.” After all, he''d worked with Michael for


    years. He could handle this.


    “Alright, I''m off.”


    Boarding time hade.


    Michael left alone, but they all knew he''d be back before long.


    Samuel exhaled deeply. “Tessa, I told you, you''re cursed or something. Michael''s


    actually owing the entire Organization here because of you!”


    It was easy to imagine just how many obstacles they''d face.


    “Yeah, I didn''t expect this either,” Tessa said. When it came to Michael, she could


    only admire him. “I finally believe it now—medicine really has no borders.”


    “Mhm.”


    “Oh, by the way—I just got back, and I''ve got nowhere to stay. Didn''t you say you


    had a spare room? Mind if

    I crash at your ce for a few days?”


    He really didn''t like staying at hotels. It made everything harder.


    “If you think you can handle Mr. Thorne''s fury, you''re wee to.”


    She had no problem with it herself. But Landon was definitely not going to like it.

    “Tessa, honestly—you really do value romance over friendship. If you''d just take


    my side for once, what could Mr. Thorne even do?”


    “Between you and Landon, who do you think I''d pick?” She raised a brow.


    Right. He''d walked right into that one. Probably best not to say anything else.


    “If you''re stuck, I still have a vi in Navoris. I''ll have someone clean it up


    tomorrow. You can move in.


    She knew he had a lot on his te, and hotels weren''t ideal.


    That evening, Tessa hosted a dinner party with Landon, the others, and Ysabel.


    “Samuel, wee back!”


    Samuel was a rare S+ ranked werewolf healer. Everyone wanted to get close to


    someone like him.


    No matter how strong a werewolf was, idents happened. And not everything


    could be healed naturally—sometimes you needed a doctor.


    Samuel raised his ss.


    “Thanks. I''m back for good now. Though people usuallye to me when things


    go wrong, don''t hesitate to reach out if you really need me.”


    He went on, “Tessa and I are going to make history in Murica''s medical world.”


    With talent like hers, she was destined for greatness.


    “Totally! Tessa''s the best!” Ysabel jumped in, clearly sucking up. She firmly


    believed there was nothing Tessa couldn''t do.


    “Tessa, seriously,” Camille chimed in, “our alpha isn''t getting any younger. I''d


    originally hoped you''d marry him after graduation. But now that you''re studying


    medicine, it''ll be at least eleven years before you''re able to practice, right?”


    The werewolf medical path required ten years of clinical training and an additional


    year of trial in the Forbidden Zone—where healers had to collect poisonous herbs


    deep in the sacrednds.


    That was why it took even longer to be a werewolf doctor than a human one.


    If that was the case, their poor alpha might have to wait eleven years for a


    wedding.
