Chapter 289
The healer appeared dejected as the Alpha’s daughter stared him down with a vicious expression on her beautiful face, but he seemed to know that it was too late for him to deny the truth.
“Please, forgive me, Kiara,” he pleaded pathetically. “This all got out of hand and it didn’t go the way you think. I didn’t do this for revenge or to spite your father. Darwin forced me to administer the poison. He threatened to kill my wife and children if I disobeyed his orders.”
Kiara softened slightly but I maintained my ferocity. As cruel as it sounded, I wasn’t going to wilt just because the healer had an excuse. If he was telling the truth I would let up, but until I was certain, I wouldn’t relax.
“What does Darwin want?” Kiara repeated herself.
The healer simply glanced at her without saying a word.
The answer was self-evident. If the Alpha died without a proper heir, Darwin would be the one in power. Kiara would either have to marry him or suffer the same fate as her father. Something told me that Darwin had a preference but would accept either option to get what he wanted.
Kiara seemed flustered as she started to put the pieces together, so I spoke to the healer instead.
“Can the Alpha be saved?” I wondered.
The healer considered the question for a moment.
“It would be difficult, but I could try,” he said finally. “I think if I had the proper herbs I could rouse him from his coma and then begin to treat the rest of the poison as I would anything else. It would take some time, and there’s no guarantee, but I think I could try.”
I nodded and then glanced at Kiara. She snapped out of her daze and then nodded. Once I had her turned my attention back to the healer.
