Caden’s POV:

Finished

Few questioned Hughie’s abilities. They spoke of him as if he could defy the very laws of nature, a healer who could drag the dead back into the light. But I had never witnessed it firsthand.

Rumors were just whispers, nothing more.

If we left him alone with Grandpa and things took a turn for the worse…

Before I could voice my thoughts, my mother’s voice cut through the tension. “All of us? Leave? Absolutely

not.”

Her gaze swept over Hughie, sharp and calculating. “So, you’re Dr. Watts?”

Hughie didn’t respond. His face was like stone.

She turned to me, her voice rising with suspicion. “Caden, are you really going to trust this man with your grandfather’s life? Can he truly save him?” Her eyes hardened. “I heard Rosaline found him. Have you forgotten who caused your grandfather’s condition in the first place? Now she’s supposedly found someone to cure him? You really believe that?”

“Enough, Eleanor,” Rosaline interjected, her tone firm and resolute. “You can question me all you like, but don’t you dare doubt Hughie.”

“Mom, please.” I caught the flicker of irritation in Hughie’s eyes. My voice dropped to a controlled coldness. “We’re leaving.”

-Whether she approved or not, Hughie was Grandpa’s only hope.

I trusted him. I trusted Rosaline.

Mom’s face darkened, and her lips pressed together in a thin line, her anger boiling over. Before she could protest further, Queenie stepped forward. “Caden, Aunt Eleanor is right. Grandpa deserves the best care. How can we let someone like him-”

“Enough!” I snapped, my patience running out. “Since when did Grandpa’s care become any of your business?” At my signal, the wolf guards stepped in, swiftly ushering both of them out of the room.

Turning to Hughie, I gave a formal bow of respect. “Dr. Watts, I trust you with my grandfather’s life.”

Without another word, I turned and walked out. The others followed.

Just as the door was about to close, Hughie’s voice stopped me. “Rosaline stays.”

Rosaline hesitated, then nodded. “Alright, Hughie.”

“No!” My mother lunged forward, blocking Rosaline’s path. “You’re not going in there! Haven’t you done enough damage?”
