26 Mate bonds …

RamseyR

A week later ,

I lay on the Healer’s table , drenched in sweat , my body shaking uncontrollably as I writhed in agony .

My skin burned as if it had been set on fire from the inside out .

My muscles clenched painfully and every joint felt like it had been ripped apart .

I groaned , suppressing the urge to cry out … if it was

would stop , but it didn’t .

“ You’re bad shape , Alpha , ” the healer muttered , “ I’ve never seen something like this .

Can you remember if you had anything … ” he trailed off .

quarters and was secretly getting treated but I was also ashamed to admit it might be due to me rejecting my mate .

I’d rather suffer in silence than let anyone know it was because of that .

“ Just give me something for the pain ! ” I breathed clutching the side of the bed , as my breath came in ragged gasps .

The healer nodded and puttered for a minute with a lot of dark liquid before he brought one to me .

“ Alpha , please drink this ,” He said .

His voice sounded distant but I wmyself to collect the potion he was offering me and owned the bitter liquid in one big gulp .

I waited for a few minutes and the agony subsided .

When I opened my eyes , I saw the healer staring at me , with a worried expression .

“ We need to find the root cause , Alpha .

Your body is beginning to reject all treatments .

I don’t know what this is .

Do you have any idea … ”

“ Thank you ! ” I murmured pushing myself down from the examination table .

“ I think this last potion is more effective than the rest .

I’ll be fine in a few days .

I’m sure .

Just keep increasing the dosage or whatever .

With that , I stumbled out of the healer’s chamber .

The walk back to the pack house felt like an eternity and it didn’t help that Lax had been quiet for a while now .

Since the day Lyla had left the pack , he had stopped responding to my calls .

He was there , alright , I could feel him but he had his back to me .

Maybe if he were here , I wouldn’t be putting up with this level of intensity of pain that I was feeling .

But I knew he was trying to punish me and I didn’t have the energy to deal with him now
