Chapter 191
Blake “There you go... All done!” Arthur clapped his hands as he took the casts and bandages in my body.
After two days of recovering, my body is finally ready to move normally. Thanks to the combined efforts of Arthur and Chloe, developing a potion that could repair broken bones, | was able to come back in tip-top shape in less than a week even with the heavy injuries that | had.
“What's your plans today?” Arthur cast a curious look on me as he tidied up his things and prepared to go to Chloe’s laboratory.
“| was thinking of visiting your lab to see Chloe... But looking at your countenance these days, it seems like everything isn’t going well?” | replied.
“Sigh... itis as you said... I've even contacted Father to take a look at it because it seems like we were not even close to deciphering a layer of it...” Arthur brushed his head while lamenting over the matter of the poison.
“It's only been two days... don’t pressure yourself too much,” | replied.
“| know man.... But we cannot afford that luxury. At any time Alpha Kain decides to move on a large scale and use that against us we will be doomed without much resistance.” Arthur’s tone became heavy as his face darkened with the unimaginable dread that the poison could bring to our alliance.
The appearance of the poison effectively shook our plans in place. Now with the knowledge of it, everyone has been on tenterhooks especially those who were going out doing the continuous pincer attack missions.
“... But hey, just go and talk to Chloe... She’s been shutting herself in the quarters and often forgot what time is it. If not for Esha’s fervent reminder for her to eat or sleep, she would have worked for two days straight!” Arthur changed the topic and patted my shoulders with an encouraging look. “Go see your mate.”
“Alright...” Hearing about Chloe’s condition, | nodded, grabbed my silver mask, and quickly headed to the laboratory not even waiting for Arthur to come.
“Go go! I'll give you two some time!” Arthur gave a playful wink as he gestured his hands saying | have to go.
When | reached the laboratory, the first person | saw was Esha, the young doctor | had encountered near the human village back then who turned out to be Chloe’s apprentice. She was instructing the assistants in the lab on how to do some poisons.
“O-oh.. Alpha Sabre! You’ve come!” Esha sensed my presence at the door and immediately greeted me with an awkward and shy look.
| was taken aback by her attitude as from the very first time | saw her, she was someone who was constantly cold to strangers unless they were patients. But this time, she was like a little girl seeing an adult she recognized deeply.
“I'm here to have a short talk with Alpha Chloe, is she around?” After greeting her with a nod, | asked. “O-oh master?! Okay, I’ll lead you to her... Follow me... please, Alpha Sabre.” Esha awkwardly showed the way.
The way to Chloe’s exclusive laboratory was quite a long walk from the main entrance and so there was an awkward silence between me and Esha. For a moment, | felt a little helpless.
As Chloe's mate, | should start working my way to get acquainted and even close to her people. Esha was Chloe’s one and only student, however, | was clueless about how | should treat her.
“Ermmm... | heard from the teacher that Alpha Sabre did his best to bring those strong poisons...” While | was trying to figure out how to open a conversation, Esha’s shy voice broke the silence.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Her tone was completely different from when | first encountered her as a mysterious doctor helping the human village.
“Did she? It was a good thing for me to stumble upon the information... however, | regret that | was not able to bring more...” | replied.
“Oh... no no! Alpha Sabre! The poisons you got were already a big help! In truth! | just want to say thank you, Alpha Sabre! Because of the poisons, my master finally gave me permission to handle a lot of it!” Esha turned into a bubbly little student expressing how happy she was when Chloe had a lot of trust in her.
| let out a light chuckle as | finally saw a glimpse of Carrie in her teens with her. “That’s good to hear. | am happy that with you, Alpha Chloe and Arthur will have more time to work on the main poison.” | replied. “The main poison...” At the mention of this, Esha frowned and replied,
“It was a nasty poison... not my nor my Master and even Sir Arthur can’t handle it by far. | feel bad for Teacher... it was the first time | saw her lose confidence.” At the mention of Chloe, Esha got teary-eyed.
“| see... but as long as we persevere we can figure out how to handle it eventually,” | said, while giving her encouragement.
“Eherm... it seems that my student became more talkative than usual?” Suddenly we heard a voice infront of us.
“T-teacher!” Esha exclaimed having to turn her head to me and Chloe back and forth. “I've come to talk to you, Alpha Chloe.” Reverting to the usual demeanor as Alpha Sabre, | addressed Chloe formally. Chloe gave a nod of understanding as she told me to follow while instructing Esha something.
When | entered Chloe’s laboratory, | was immediately assaulted by the strong smell of herbseanid, paisens! ' Atheughiitaras Something considered unpleasant, the aggressive smell of it made me pause momentarily to regain my composure. Please read the original content at .
Behind me, | heard the sound of the door closing and Chloe’s voice saying, “Smell this agent, this will protect you from the nauseous assault of the mixed scent of herbs and poisons.
She walked beside me and handed out a cotton ball with a drop of potion in it, granting me a closer look at her face.
Her hair was tied up in a messy bun and some baby hairs flowed playfully on the side of ber face: \inderh r eyas were\obvious signs of lack of sleep and fatigue, but her beautiful orbs were still alert and bright. Please read the original content at .
Suddenly, | felt the urge to take her and pamper her as | saw her pushing herself this much. But before | could contemplate, my hands already reached out and gently pulled her into my embrace.
As soon as my body felt her warmth, | suddenly felt a wave of power and vigor flowing inward and outward, like a raging river connected to her.
Her scent tickled my nose and | healing With tes penel ri AS ; Pee Npe mytTace itpneriieesd and shoulders as | breathed deeply, savoring her sweet scent, and burying it in my memory. Please read the original content at .

“No need... Your scent is enough.”
