Chapter 23
Everything happened so suddenly, everyone was taken aback. No one expected something like this at
a time like this and the old Alpha could not help but feel guilty. Jason was the most disturbed at the
moment, feeling like he just exchanged his mate’s life for that of his father. The color drained form his
face, as guilt waved him diy
“What happened to her?” He was already at Rowena’s side helplessly and Jax was making it worse.
1 can’t reach her well, I can’t reach her. What is happening to our mate?’ He kept whining.
“You saw what happened. Stop disturbing me and let me check on her, Jaxon snarled. Jax quieled
instantly, whiles Jaxon hovered over Rowena’s unconscious form on the bed. Charles was equally
disturbed and made a move to go to Rowena’s side but Jaxon’s warning rang in his head,
Be careful Charles, I will do anything for Rowens, if it means fighting you till death”
He tried to hold back the entricity he was feeling, Alpha ten was disturbed and felt like he would
die the next minute if he lost her. There was so much about Rowena that no one knew and losing her
would be doum to them all.
“I don’t know how she did it and I feel as if I was neversick. My energy is restored to when I was forty,”
he observed and spoke. These things were not strange for which reason Jaxon was afraid. Some
ancer: wolves had healing powers but it worked in a way of exchanging the life of the healer for the
patient. Due to that, they lost all healing wolves, Jason tried to sever the thought that Rowena’s
situation was different.
“Thope she did not exchange her life for yours.” Jason voce his fears. The old Alpha froze instantly
recalling the legend of the healing woll His eyes instantly turning teary but Gracie’s words rased their
anxiety all together.
“She healed a lot of people but never passed out. Please let me check on her
Jaxon was reluctant before recalling that Gracie was equally doctor. Gracie checked Rowena’s pulse
and was greatly relieved upon realizing that it felt normal.
“Row is fine but I don’t know the reason why she is not waking up. It might be due to exhaustion.” she
ryed to the worned men. Jaxon could not be far from her, thereby saying,
“I will take her to my room”
As soon as he lifted Rowena in his arms, Charles took a step to follow them, ending up receiving a
strong waming from Jaxon, and you better not follow me, Charles.”
If his father was fine, then this was his time with Rowers. He could not let anyone including his brother
ruin it for him.
Charles did not have an excuse to refuse his elder brother’s orden, as he watched him carrying
Rowena to his room. His heart was twitching at the mere sight of it. The next moment, Gracie gave him
a weirdnk before running in the direction where Jaxon carried Rowena,
Alpha Clinton followed as well, his first time stepping out of his room in months and it felt good bit now,
he was worried about Rowena. She was in this condition because of him for which reason he could not
celebrate his profound health. As soon as Jason dropped Rowena on his neatlyid bed, he stared at
the two people in his room and frowned a little.
“I will like to have some time alone with her.””
“I will be in the living room if you need me,” Gracie sad.
“I will keep youpany, Alpha Clinton said to Gracie. He also wished for Jason and Rowena to be
together. Only then would everything fall into ce for him
As soon as they got downstairs, the doors to the entrance of the living room opened and ra walked
in. Charles was already sitting on a sols but did not turn to the door. Something was eating him up. He
knew what it was but could not tell anyone nor seek constion from anyone about it. Mockery was the
only earning he would get from sharing what was badly eating him at the moment.
When Gracie’s gaze met with ra’s, ra looked away and engaged in a chat with Alpha Cinton.
She hated Gracie at first and then Rowena. Both women made her blood boil and given they got the
attention of the old Alpha, Jason and Charles, she felt neglected. Whereas, she could not hide her
shock at seeing how the old Alpha was looking.
“Alpha, you are fell ra dered, stunned at seeing the Alpha all healthy. She was only privy to see
him about a year ago during a family dinner but the Alpha fever weed her to his room and hardly
stepped out after that. That’s thest time she saw the old Alpha, he was very sickly
“It’s all thanks to Howena, Alpha Clinton smiled and spoke, satisfied by the stunned look on ra’s
face. It was not a secret to anyone that ra hated Howena.
“Ro.Rowena!” ra stammered, coupled with the registered shock on herce, that gave her a
lukewarm attitude as she added, “Doctors take time to cure patients. What medication did she use? I’m
only asking because a lot of doctors came before. Please forgive me for asking too much. I am just
happy that you are fine and also curious to know how she did it.”
Not seeing Rowena and Jason around, she was having the inkling feeling that Rowena must be from
the legend of healing wolves, who had been hunted for their healing powers, after which they died. If
that was the case, then her chances were even better. Rowena would die and notplete with her
anymore. Then she would find the time to deal with Gracie and make her regret getting close to Jaxon
in the first ce.
“Allyhat matters is that she did it. Rowena has always been selfless. She gave her life to save mine.”
Theer of ra’s lips curled up but she lowered her head to hide it and asked, “So, she’s dead?”
She kept thinking it was the reason why Charles’s

mood seemed to be sore, together with the old Alpha and Gracie.
Alpha Clinton frowned with contempt for ra to even think that way and eximed, “The goddess
forbids it but she is unconscious.”
ra’s eyes it. If Rowena was already unconscious, then a little bit of wallshane would send her to her
early grave. “I should check on her. I’m not a visitor,” she said with feigned worry. Gracie was about to
refuse when the old Alpha responded.
“I don’t think your presence will do her any good. You better stay with your man there,” he lifted hisThis material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
head and gestured towards Charles, who was staring nkly into space as if he was not aware of
ra’s presence. He was however startled by his father’s voice before he nced at ra and asked.
“ra, what are you doing here?”
ra smiled before walking around to sit on the arm of the single sofa Jaxon sat on. Her slender
fingers skillfullybed his hair whiles she said, “It’s lunch time so I came to get you.”
Gracie nced in their direction, feeling her chest tighten in her rib cage. ‘Rowena is right. Charles
would never ept me. I just have to let him reject me and hopefully, the moon goddess would give
me a second chance mate or remain mateless forever. Both ra and Gracie were shocked by
Charles’ response.
*Rowena is not well and you want me to go for lunch?”
The old Alpha’s lips curled upwards. To think that Charles gave up the Alpha position for such a
woman, all because he did not want to be mated to an omega. He kept a straight face, pretending to
not listen to what they were discussing
“But…” ra wanted to counter Charles’s im. Since when did he begin to care for Rowena? It was
so unlike him but Charles had already cut her off, going on to exin,
“She saved my father’s life without thinking about hers. It’s just profound that I ensure she’s fine before
going for lunch but you know what, I don’t have the appetite today. Take care of the office in my
absence too.”
Indirectly, he was telling ra to go and she was not feeling wee either so she agreed. “It’s alright.
I will take care of the office,” ra frowned and spoke before sauntering to the door as she vowed in
her mind,
You better die, Rowena because if youe out alive, I will send you to the grave myself
