The Lycan King's Healer

Leah's body became frozen as a reaction to what the Lycan stated. When she turned to Luna, Luna just nodded.

'Why am I compelled to wait for that man?' If only she had a chance to say these words.

'He was the one who said that someone was better than me! I also refused their offer, which means I should no longer be associated with them. I will never alter my views, regardless of anything else they say.'

"Bring him to Amoux's chamber and do not allow her to leave. Provide her with all she needs in case she requests anything!" The Lycan declared unequivocally, leaving her speechless.

****

"Get me out of here!"

Leah slammed the door. She could do nothing but hit the door and lean against it.

“I needed to go back to my house!”

They put her inside Amoux's room, and they didn't let her speak anymore. They locked the door outside, so that she would not find any way to get out.

She looked around Amoux's entire room and yelled again. “It's the Prince's fault!”

“...”

No one replied to her.

“If only he hadn't been so arrogant! I'm not proud that I'm good! All I want is not to accept the offer! So, why am I here now?”

Leah rose up to her feet, removed the dust to her robe and kicked her legs to the air because of irritation.

She wandered her eyes around the room, and she could see nothing but lights, hanging clothes, and a little clutter. His bed was clean as if it had not been touched.

“How many days has he not come home?”

No matter how she talks to herself, no one is responding to her. If only she could awaken her wolf...

“Anyway, it looks like he won't come back to his room again because he's busy looking for someone better than me!”

Leah ran to Amoux' bed and spread her arms while lying. She hasn't eaten yet; how can she tell the guards and patrols outside that she's hungry? Will they serve her delicious food again?

As she thought about what she could do, her mind suddenly remembered what had happened to Amoux and her. If he hadn't just said hurtful words to her before, she might have accepted his father's offer.

"Nevermind, you can't turn the stone into soap. That heartless man won't ever change."

She closed her eyes while having rage inside her heart. And because the silent room was making her ears deafening, the sleepiness is slowly dragging her.

Her mind took her to a dream that she would never want to go back to. She doesn't know why she was still dreaming of that scene after so many years. She has been burying everything for a long time now...

"S-Stop! Please..."

"A-Ah... No! Please!"

Leah screamed herself awake and gasped for air. She felt sweat trickle down her neck as she was still chasing her breath. She wiped the perspiration that had also accumulated on her forehead as she tilted her head to look around her.

The surroundings were still quiet, and nothing had been touched. She bent her legs and hid her face on her knee.

She dreamed of her parents again. The image of them as they died and gradually lost their breath reappeared in her dream while she was watching them—unable to do anything.

She still wants to know what kind of illness it is. She doesn't want to have another person affected by that disease.

She lowered her foot to the floor and took significant steps to the door. However, when she was about to grasp the handle, the door opened, and Amoux's serious face flashed at her.

"Ah!"

She quickly backed away and went to the side to give him the way.

'This foolish man!' Leah wants to kick him right now because of his attitude! She almost stumbled but the man acted like she was invisible.

As he finally entered, she looked at the open door and hoped to go out but she heard his voice speak.

"If you're planning to run away, don't plan; you might be back in this room in less time." His voice seemed to be favored by what was happening.

'It was his fault why we were like this; if he hadn't been so stubborn every time he talked to his father, he wouldn't have had any more difficulties.'

"Why? I have nothing to do with what is happening to you! I have already rejected your father's offer!" Leah is now walking towards him.

"Watch your mouth, woman! It looks like you forgot who I am!"

No way! Why is he the only one with the chance to get angry? Is it because she's omega that her mouth should be closed as well?

"You know what? It's all your fault!" Leah pointed at him with her finger; she doesn't care if he kills her right now. She needed to say everything she wanted because it's indeed all his fault!

"Who are you to blame the Prince? Remember that you are far different from me. Aside from being an outsider in our territory, you should be thankful that I haven't killed you yet!" Amoux also got up from sitting, and he was now towering over her.

"Then, thank you! Who is stopping you from killing me? Why don't you do it to me now!"

Her voice was angrier as she shouted at him. She will not allow him to belittle her! She has also contributed a lot to their pack because she was the one who treats wolves with chronic wounds. She is already one of the Nightwalker pack.

"What did you say?!"

"Mmhh! Let me go!"

Amoux squeezed her cheek tightly, and his nails almost sank.

"You think highly of yourself just because my father favored you."

He showed out his fangs again. And she couldn't move because it was the first time she had seen it up close.

She didn't know that they were this long compared to the others. She swallowed a few times and couldn't move. Her knees and hands seemed to weaken.

"Don't test my patience, Leah. You still don't know what I can do."
