Chapter 96 Reyna Cruz: Hunter downplayed the pain he was feeling, but it pained me to see him in that state. Deep down, I knew it all happened because of me. I shouldn’t have left after Samuel like that. It made Hunter come after us, and then this happened. And also the fact that it took him so long to believe that I was worried for him made my heart crumble. There was a time when we didn’t have to say it, we just knew no one was more important for us than each other. “Reynal” he spoke with difficulty because of the deformity of his face. *I’m fine. You should rest now, he waved his hand my way, signaling for me to leave so he could sleep on the couch. As he tried to get up, I stopped him. “You can sleep in the bed. I gently placed my hands on his chest and guided him to lie down. His eyes were displaying so many emotions and his heart was pounding hard against my palms. “Reyna! I will be fine, you don’t need to worry too much.” His voice was deeper now because he couldn’t open his mouth anymore. With time passing, it seemed like his condition was worsening, but he refused to go to the hospital. He had silver and wolfbane in his system, so healing himself was not possible, but the hospital was an option. However, he refused to go. “Just hush, and sleep in the bed, I made sure he had lied down. He kept staring at me and making me squeeze myself together. “I don’t want Turner to see me like this,” he added, and I frowned. “He wouldn’t be afraid of you,” I assured him, knowing why he was worried about Turner seeing him. “I wish but you know how innocent he is,” he disagreed with me “I don’t want him to look at my face-and be afraid of me. Reynal he shook his head so gently that it broke my heart.

I sat still on my knees beside him on the bed. Watching him like that caused me so much pain, a pain I never thought I would feel for him again. “He would never, I confidently shook my head, but he seemed unsatisfied. “Reyna! Even if not, seeing me like this would break his heart. He will be worried for me,” as he made that objection, I couldn’t help but zone out. I remembered whenever I would get sick, Turner would not rest for a second. He was the type who wanted the people. around him to be happy and healthy. “So what do you suggest we do?” I inquired from him with a heavy heart. “I will move to the other side of the mansion,” he paused as he couldn’t swallow properly. His breathing was erratic, and it broke me from inside out. “You mean to say hide from everyone in that part of the mansion?” as I asked him, he nodded. “But you need proper care. And there will be no one there to take care of you, I refused because that would mean he would be isolated in the unused part of the mansion without anyone around him 24/7. “I’m not a child, I’ll be fine. The pain isn’t even that much,” he couldn’t smile, but he squeezed his eyes to let me know he was. smiling. 1/3 nu, May 16 Chapter 96 “Besides,” he took a pause to close his eyes when he probably felda jolt of pain, “I’ll transition soon and feel better.” “I don’t know. You are barely able to talk,” I pouted. “You can come check on me every now and then,” he suggested and finally I was able to nod. .64% 45 That was all I needed to know for now. I couldn’t bring myself to start an argument with him about why he shouldn’t be staying in that part and be alone. The more he talked, the more pain he felt. “Okay!

big sweater to shield myself from the cold and left to take a look at that part of the mansion. “Reyna! You are tired too. Please don’t overwork yourself,” he voiced before I showed him my palm and reassured him that I’ll be fine. It was the backside, never used. In fact, even when I was married to him, we never set foot in that part. There was a huge hallway separating that part. As I grabbed the keys from his coat and made my way down the dark hallway, I realized how wrong it would be to leave him in this cold part. Since Hunter kept insisting and wasn’t comfortable with his son seeing him in that state, I respected his choice. “We will be on our toes to take care of him, Nera comforted me when she found me sighing. I kept turning on the lights as I moved forward. I’ll be so worried for him, I added. I reached the dark living room, and it honestly gave me shivers down my spine. I opened the nearest door and started coughing at how dirty it was. Tm going to clean this up for him, I decided to make it cozy for him. I would have to transfer him into this room in the morning, so I didn’t really have a whole day to do it. What about your own health? You still have that wolfbane in your system, Nera attempted to make a point, but something was bothering me so much that I felt like if anyone should be doing this, it should be me. ‘Nera! I made them fight when I left after Samuel. Hunter came there thinking I was in trouble. He is in this state because of me, as I began to feel the guilt and express it openly, she interrupted me. ‘No! It was his choice to come after us. You did nothing wrong. You were forced into this marriage and didn’t get a chance speak to Samuel. You wanted to have a word with him; you didn’t leave so that you can put them against each other, I knew she was right, but what can I do when I cannot shrug off this guilt? *And I’m not saying that I don’t feel bad for Hunter. I’m feeling double his pain. But I just want you to know that you are not at fault and stop blaming yourself,’ she added with much more dominance this time, and I nodded to her. “Thank you for always uplifting me,’ I smiled for her but that didn’t change my mind. I have made up my mind to take care of this area so that Hunter can stay here at peace.

“But I need to clean this up for him. I want to do it with my own hands, I sighed, and for a brief moment, she didn’t respond to me before she agreed with me. I started cleaning the room and the living room. I guess it helped me get my mind off so many things, mostly the pain Hunter was feeling. I kept cleaning until the clock struck 7 am. I was tired and so exhausted that I wanted to lie down in bed and sleep. His room was now cozy with the fireplace working. The big bed in the middle had the light from the window in the back coming in. It was soothing now. As I lay down in the bed before I woke up Hunter and brought him here, I heard Nera utter sofily “Isn’t it odd that we didn’t once think about checking up on Samuel when we knew that he might have been hurt too?” 1 thought my breath got caught in my throat when my wolf pointed it out to me. 2/3
