Sold as the Alpha King’s Breeder Chapter 692

Chapter 39 : Blood, Lots of Blood

*Soren*

I carried Mila’s slight figure in my arms, all the way back to the hotel.

While walking through the village, it was clear that people were feeling the freedom from the curse. They spoke to each other, smiling, hugging, and laughing. Kids ran through the streets playing.

The entire village was transformed and absolutely stunning.

“Payne, you called for Dr. Lee, right?” I asked as we got closer to the hotel.

“Yes. He should be arriving today,” Payne confirmed.

“It isn’t uncommon for spells to take a lot out of the witch,” April said. “Breaking curses is hard and takes a lot of energy.”

“I’m aware of that,” I muttered.

It wasn’t the spell that worried me. It was the Blackfire poison that ran through her veins. Passing out from casting a spell was nothing new. However, Mila was pale and seemed delirious. She muttered to herself and kept wincing.

Those were signs of poisoning, not spell fatigue.

“I’ve got things to check on. Will Mila be alright?” April asked me.

I nodded firmly. “I’ll make sure of it. Do what you need to, she’ll contact you when necessary.”

April nodded and headed off to a shop that had been closed since we arrived. Now, it was open and there were lights on inside.

The village had really bounced back quickly. I was happy to see it and I knew Mila would be too.

I promised myself that she would wake up and see it.

In my hotel room, I laid Mila down on my bed.

Dr. Lee bustled in with a bag of travel medical equipment. He saw me and he saw Mila and shook his head.

“Move,” he ordered, nudging me aside.

Gently, I brushed some hair out of Mila’s face and stepped aside.

Lee pulled out his stethoscope, a travel pulse-oximeter, and a blood pressure device. He muttered under his breath as he checked her vitals and gave her a quick physical examination.

“Well, is she going to be okay?” I asked sharply.

“Let me work,” Lee barked.

I rolled my eyes and walked across the room. He was probably the only one that could speak to me like that. As a doctor, I had to defer to his expertise in these matters. Where Mila was concerned, I didn’t want to get in his way and mess things up.

Lee muttered something and sighed. He leaned over Mila’s face, turning his head to the side so her breath touched his cheek. Lee’s brow creased and he pulled back.

“What is it, what’s wrong?” I asked.

“I warned you before to stay away from her,” Lee mumbled, glaring at me. “Why don’t you listen?”

I scoffed. “She was in need.”

“Like that’s ever swayed you before,” Lee grumbled. “No pretty face, no desperate story has ever convinced you to engage with someone you know is trouble. And yet, she’s still here and you’re still advocating for her.”

“There is more I need to know about her. All of us could be at stake if I don’t find out the truth,” I said with a growl. I did not like having to justify myself to Lee.

“Well, yeah, there is plenty about her… near as I can tell, there is a very powerful power awakening in her,” he explained.
