"The drug is still in the testing phase. So, if any side effects occur, I don't take responsibility," Santiago said.Suddenly, that remark drew Judith and Drake's attention."What did you say?" Judith made sure she had heard.Santiago chuckled with the tube of immortal water in his hand. The man leaned back against the couch and said, "Over and over again. I must say that the antidote is very expensive. And this is one of the reasons why. I used ingredients that were difficult to obtain and cost much money to test. But... so far, that antidote in your hand is the closest to perfect. Although I can't say it will one hundred per cent work as expected."There was no guilt at all in every word Santiago spoke. The man still could smile broadly after leaving Judith and Drake without words."Your trashy mouth is full of shit!" scolded Drake.Santiago rolled his eyes at the man. Calmly, he retorted, "Didn't I not want to give it to you in the first place? Then why are you blaming me for the r
Drake started the car engine and resumed their journey to the hospital. The speed was increased. Drake asked Judith to hold on because the man would drive the vehicle at high speed at every opportunity, given the precarious situation at the hospital."Be careful!" Judith called out a warning when the car they were traveling in almost collided with a vehicle traveling from the opposite direction."Don't worry! I've got this under control," Drake said."We're going to save a life. Let's not lose our lives first," Judith retorted."Oh-um! Watch your language, ma'am! We're on the road. It's not good to talk like that." Drake glanced over, smiling as he raised one eyebrow."Watch the road ahead, Drake! Not me!" Judith retorted.Drake smiled and picked up speed as the road ahead was deserted. They arrived at the hospital early of time. Drake dropped Judith off in the lobby so she could park her car in the basement. That would save time."The last time I left them, Ryn was still in the obser
An uproar of panic instantly erupted in the observation room. Ryn, who lost her pulse, and Albert, who suddenly fell unconscious."They are mates. They're connected," Mike said through the panic. "Betty! Bring another gurney!" ordered Mike."Yes, Doctor," replied the nurse named Betty. The woman in the white uniform immediately ran out of the room to carry out the order.Mike turned to the assistant beside him."Jack! I entrust Alpha Albert to you. Don't let him die!" said the doctor."Okay." The man named Jack nodded his head and ran over to Albert, who was on Judith's lap."I caught him. His head didn't hit the floor," Judith told him."I understand, ma'am," Jack replied while checking Albert's pulse. "Shit!" cursed Jack in a stifled voice as he barely detected Albert's pulse. "Put his head on the floor, ma'am!" he ordered Judith.Judith obeyed and immediately placed Albert's head on the floor carefully. She shifted slightly as Jack took position beside Albert's body with his palms
The fear that filled Albert's mind made the monitor connected to him sound loud. "Wow, wow, wow! Easy, Man!" said Mike. The doctor immediately checked Albert's vital organ detection monitor. He noticed a significant increase in activity from the Alpha's heart. It was a sudden increase, and it was feared that it would be detrimental to the body's owner. "Ryn. Where is she?" Albert tugged on Mike's arm, unconcerned by the sound of the monitor roaring beside the gurney. Mike turned his head and saw a kind of fear in Albert's eyes. Mike suspected that that fear caused the increase in Albert's heart activity. Glancing at the monitor screen, the doctor then said, "I need you to calm down." "Answer me, Doctor! Where is he?" urged Albert while tugging on Mike's collar. The Alpha thought that Mike didn't answer his question right away because something terrible had happened to Ryn. Mike patted Albert's hand as he said, "Calm down, Alpha Albert! Or you'll be in severe condition." There w
"True love's kiss." One corner of Mike's lips lifted, along with one eyebrow. "Good luck, Alpha Albert!" he said as he patted Albert's shoulder twice, before walking away.Albert was stunned. He did not respond to the doctor's words and gesture. The Alpha's eyes were fixed on the girl lying pale-faced before him. Inwardly Albert whispered, "Will the kiss work?""No! It's ridiculous! It's just a fairy tale, it won't work in reality." Albert monologued while shaking his head softly and smiling wryly.Instead of doing what Mike said, Albert chose to hold Ryn's hand with no intention of letting go. And speaking of kisses, Albert was reminded of his dream. The fear trembelled his heart. Then he thought, if he did what Mike said, would it make him lose Ryn forever? Was this what the prophecy meant? He would die if Ryn died. Is that how the Bloodwolf mate bond worked?"Sir, what are you doing?" joked a nurse who had just entered the room when she saw Albert leaving his gurney.The Alpha half
Call it magic or miracle. The reality was that Ryn woke up after Albert kissed her with love and sincerity. "Gosh! I swear I love you." Albert held Ryn tightly. There was no greater joy than seeing her open her eyes. Albert released her embrace and kissed her lips. "It worked. The kiss worked," the Alpha said as he cupped the girl's face. In a state of consciousness that had not fully recovered, Ryn tried to digest the Alpha's words. The girl scrunched up her face, unable to decipher Albert's last sentence. "Kiss? What kiss are you talking about?" the girl asked. Albert smiled. Indeed, no one had ever seen an expression like the one on his face right now. People who knew Albert would say that he was not the Alpha. The notoriously cold and cruel pack leader was now transformed into a man with eyes that radiated the light of love. He was enthusiastic about the miracle he had experienced. People would ask, is that Albert the Alpha of the Golden Moon Pack
"What the hell is going on here?"A voice interrupted the severe conversation between Albert and Ryn. They turned their heads, passing their eyes in the direction from which the sound came. Mike was walking hurriedly towards them."Oh my Gosh! Miss Ryn!" exclaimed Mike. The man swung his legs faster with a strained look on his face. "Why didn't you call me if Miss Ryn was awake? Move! Give me some space!" Mike said in a slightly high tone, asking Albert to step aside so he could check on the girl's condition."Your bullshit worked," Albert said, unconcerned by Mike, who looked slightly annoyed at him."What?" The Alpha's words made Mike, who had a stethoscope in his ear, turn to him. "What did you say?" he repeated."I kissed her, and it worked. She woke up," Albert said.Mike's hands hung in the air. Albert's words stunned him, but a moment later, the man laughed."Your jokes aren't hilarious, Alpha Albert! I'm glad Miss Ryn is final
Ryn's condition recovered quickly. One day after leaving the intensive care unit, the girl felt that her condition had returned to normal. However, as long as Mike didn't confirm the results of his observations, Ryn wouldn't be able to leave the hospital. And that made boredom overwhelmed Ryn."I'm so bored. I wanna get out of here," said Ryn, who was tired of being kept indoors with an IV needle stuck in the back of her hand."No! You will only get off that bed after Mike says you can leave this hospital," Albert said firmly.Ryn relaxed her shoulders with a frown on her face."But I am so bored. It feels like every joint and muscle in my body is like a robot. It's so stiff," Ryn complained. A moment later, the girl looked at Albert with narrowed eyes. "Or do you want to do something to cheer me up? Maybe you can do something silly that will make me laugh," she suggested."What?" Albert's face scrunched up. He then shook his head as he said, "No!
