Chapter 104

Reyna Cruiz:

1 put my phone on silent and tended to Hunter for four hours until his fever finally subsided. As I was about to leave, he grasped my hand in his sleep, urging me to stay seated beside him on the bed. Fobserved him gently raise his head and then nestle it in my lap Without opening his eyes, he continued to rest, clearly in pain. Watching him sleep peacefully in my lap stirred something inside me. I remained by his side for another two hours, all the while receiving messages from Mrs Sparrow about what she and Turner were up to She also ensured that Tara was nowhere near Tumer. Now that Mrs. Sparrow was back to her usual self, I knew Tara wouldn't dare to interfere. After Hunter finally woke up and rested in bed. I left the room to replace Turner.

1 had only reached the main mansion when I saw Tara waiting for me, her hands on her waist.

What were you doing back in there?" she asked bitterly.

Now that Hunter wasn't around, she was no longer using her calm and meek tone. In fact, it was becoming increasingly difficult to deal with her attitude. She was completely out of control. "That's none of your business. I am the Luna Queen of this pack and I get to do whatever I want," I retorted harshly. After what she did to my son, there was no way I would be nice to her.

"So you're finally being yourself, meaning a bitch" she hissed. Tell the guards to let me go take a look."

I was shocked. She had the nerve to curse at me and then demand entry just to see what I was doing in the back mansion?

"Tara!" I smiled and shook my head in disbelief. "You will not pass that hallway. You are not allowed there, and if you have a problem, call Hunter, and he will tell you himself to stay out of my business. I muttered.

She continued to stare at my face before a smirk appeared on hers.

"I'll see how anyone can stop me," she hissed before stomping her foot and walking away. Dealing with her was exhausting, And on top of that. I was getting calls from Samuel

"Hi" I'm so sorry for not keeping my promise. I blurted out the minute Lanswered the call.

"Why?" he asked quickly,

I hesitated for a moment, debating whether to lie or be honest with him. "Sam, I went to let Hunter know I was leaving when I found out he was burning up with a high fever- That was all he needed to hear before he grunted and interrupted me.

"Good luck with your new life," he said before hanging up

"Sam-"I was shocked, but I had seen it coming. I could have easily lied to him, but I didn't want to. I tried calling him many times but he never answered any of my calls

Seeing Turner and Mrs. Sparrow playing in the garden, I made some fresh juice for Hunter and decided to check on him again. At the same time, I had spoken to Polline. She was doing fine but didn't know about Samuel's condition. However, she did tell me that nobody had seen Samuel after that day, which made me wonder how badly wounded he must have been.

Anxious and worried about everything. I didn't realize who was following me as I crossed the hallway and reached Hunter's room. As soon as I entered, I watched Hunter sit and gaze outside the tinted window. "Hey! How are you feeling now?" I asked, and he nodded.

"Much better," his voice-becoming lower and rougher.

"Here! Drink this and then take another medicine," I didn't want to keep asking him when he would be able to transition because I knew the wolfbane in that amount doesn't leave one's body easily. But I was itching to inquire about Samuel's state. I kept my tongue under my teeth because I feared he would get upset and sicker if I brought up Sam for now.

"What the f

*ck!"

A loud, piercing voice pierced the room, and then someone barged in with her hands over her mouth.

"What the heck happened to you?" Tara had somehow followed me and was now just staring at Hunter, making both of us uncomfortable. If she found out, everybody would. It was even the way she was watching him that angered me.

"Taral How did you get in here?" I exclaimed, noticing the glare she shot my way.

"Did this happen because of her? I heard you fought because of her she screamed as she pointed her ugly finger at me.

She didn't even wait for any of us to reposed to her before she added, "and then you only told her and kept the truth from me. She kept coming here while I was told you left for some business," she was definitely placing the blarne on me.

"Taral Hunter grunted, signaling for her to watch her tone and words.

"No! I won't stop. Look at yourself. Oh my Goddess! You are so hideous. What have you done to him? Does Turner know what his mother did to his father?" she kept going, her statments widening my eyes. "You better leave him out of it. I warned her, pointing my finger in her face..

"Why! Why couldn't you stop being a slut? Why would you marry one man and then run after-" she abruptly paused when Hunter got out of bed and hissed, making his way towards her angrily. "Ahh!" she screamed, dramatically covering her face. I placed my hands on Hunter and pushed him back, making him sit on

the bed.

"I will deal with her. You don't need to stress," I warned him before turning around to grasp her arm and drag her out of the room. I didn't want Hunter to hear her ridiculous talk, so I closed the door behind us to face her alone.

"What the heck happened to him? How are you able to face him she whispered, pulling her nose up in disgust.

"Tara! Leave." I pointed my finger towards the hallway.

"But is he going to heal back to his handsome self? This is-ew!" he shuddered, making me stare at her face in disbelief and disapproval. This woman didn't care how he was feeling or how much pain he had been in; she was just worried if he would recover his handsome face..

"Listen! You are not allowed back here. I will take care of him on my own," I muttered to her, watching her grunt.

"Of course, I won't come here. He is yours for now. Return him to me when he is back to being handsome," she shuddered again as if she recalled his face before she started running back to the main mansion "What a witch! Nera hissed.

As we walked inside, I watched Hunter sit with his head back and his eyes closed.

"How are you not disgusted with me?" he asked.

"Because there is nothing to be disgusted about," I uttered, and he slowly raised his head.

"You are just making me not regret forcing you to marry me. And I feel horrible for not feeling guilty, his comment was supposed to remind me of the day when he forcibly married me by threatening me, but instead, it made me smile a bit.
