Chapter 42
Lilac woke up with a great headache, almost like when she drank alcohol too much and ended up in Hunter’s bed, it seemed the same thing happened again right now, but the only different was; she didn’t drink.
Lila remembered that she didn’t drink any alcohol. Knowing how much she was in misery the next day after she got drunk, she promised to herself not to touch that drink again, but the sensation she felt right now was the same.
“Are you awake now?” Hunter’s face was the first thing that Rhea saw. He looked worried and a little bit pale, or maybe it was because of the sunlight.
Lilac looked around her, a little bit disoriented and then the memories flooded back into the front of her mind, as she gasped in horror.
She remembered what happened to her and how Aria had betrayed her. She knew luna Jasmine must be behind all of this, but how could she do that to her without giving any warning?
“It’s okay, there was nothing happened.” Hunter calmed her down the moment, he noticed she remembered the horrendous night. “I came in time, he didn’t do anything to you.
Yes, Aiden didn’t manage to do the deed, but it didn’t mean he didn’t touch her, he saw her n*ked b*dy and this pissed Hunter off so much.
It took some time for Lilac to finally felt a little bit better and Hunter managed to reassure her that she was safe right now.
“Why the healer is here?” She recognized the healer when she went away to do something, she was not sure what she was saying to Hunter earlier, her mind didn’t work yet.
“You were drugged. I didn’t bring healer from my pack, so the only option is her.” Hunter helped Lilac to rearrange her pillow, so she could lay down comfortably.
But then, Darren knocked on the door and informed Hunter about the meeting with the other alphas.-It- would happen in an hour from now. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
“Alpha James wanted you to bring her as well,” Darren said through the closed door.
Hunter growled. “Tell to the messenger Lilac is still not well to go to the pack house. Make sure everything is prepared. We are going to leave right away!”
Hunter didn’t want to spend another minute in this pack. He was going to leave this pack with Lilac after that arrogant and stupid man received his punishment. He knew that he couldn’t demand a death sentence, but there were still a lot of things that was worst than death.
“Why are you going to the park house? What are you going to do there?” Lilac was a little bit confused with This. She had not yet asked Hunter how he could find her, she was sure she was done for when she ended up in Aiden’s bedroom
“You don’t need to know about this. Just rest well. We are going to have a long journey, you need to prepare yourself.”
Yet, Lilac didn’t want to rest, she wanted to know what was going on, or else, she wouldn’t be able to even
close her eyes. More so, she just woke up, she felt better now after some time.
“No, tell me. You need to tell me, what happened last night and how could you find me?” Lilac insisted for Hunter to tell her everything and despite his reluctance, Lilac was pretty persistence until he finally relented.
No, actually, Hunter wanted to tell her about this, but he thought this was not the right time, since she just woke up, yet when he saw the determination in her eyes, he knew she could handle this.
The only reason why he wanted to tell her everything in detail was pretty simple, because he didn’t want Lilac to have any connection or attach to the pack that had betrayed her, at the very least, not to the people, who was willing to harm her.
Hunter had thought about this matter the whole night and the only thing that came up in his mind about the reason why luna Jasmine made such nasty attempt to make her son slept with Lilac was in hope for her to stay in this pack and both of them could rekindle their mate bond again.
Now, Hunter would crush that hope and even though it would make Lilac sad and crush her, it was necessary to cut off any feeling she had for this pack. She had rejected him after all, there was nothing else between them anymore now, aside from the residue of what she thought they had
“Are you, okay?” Hunter asked Lilac tenderly, as he caressed her head. He could see how distraught she was right now.
“I am fine.” The answer was curt. However, Hunter knew that she was anything, but fine. “I will go with
you.
“You don’t need to come with me. I will make sure he paid for what he had done to you.”
Lilac lifted her head, her face was still very pale, but there was this determination in her eyes. “No.” She shook her head. “If he is going to be punished, I need to be there to witness it.”
Hunter was actually surprised by the answer that Lilac gave to him, but then he was elated. He liked this spirit. He liked it when someone didn’t act so weak.
“Okay. If that’s what you want. You will come with me after you eat your meal and drink your medicine: Hunter gave her a condition, because there was no way Lilac would be able to attend the meeting for long in this condition.
“But, you need to be there in an hour.”
“Let’s them wait for us.”
“I am fine. There is no need to delay.”
“Look, I am not going to carry you again, okay. You are rather heavy.
“Pardon me?”
