Collection-Break Mate Bond with Alpha Before Marriage novel Chapter 42

Chapter9 

Three days later, the chief steward rushed in. 

“Alpha! A wandering healer from the wilds claims to have a remedy for Muna’s arms.” 

The Alpha’s eyes lit up like torches in the night. “Quick! Bring him in!” 

Moments later, the wandering healer appeared, clutching a vial of liquid. 

I knew exactly what it was. 

A potion that would sap the very life force from one’s body, offering only a fleeting moment of false vitality. 

The one who drank it would meet a violent end within half a moon.

The Alpha roared. “You dare bring this poison for Muna? What is your foul intent? Guards! Beat him to death at once!” 

The chief steward, who had served the Alpha loyally for many moons, dropped to his knees with a thud. 

“Alpha! Please, think twice!” 

“This potion will surely harm Muna, but the battle on the border is on the verge of collapse. If we delay, it won’t be just half a moon… even a few days might be too late.”

The moment the liquid touched my tongue, I crumpled to the ground, blood gushing from my nostrils. 

“Scoundrel!” 

The Alpha kicked the wandering healer away.

You said this potion would heal Muna!! Why is she bleeding?” 

“This blood is the body expelling the toxins. It’s inevitable!” 

As he spoke, I managed to get back to my feet. 

The Alpha stared at me in disbelief. 

I tried to lift my arms. There was no response from my right shoulder, but my left arm, the one that hadn’t been impaled, seemed to come back to life. 

The chief steward exclaimed, 

“Congratulations, Alpha! Congratulations, Muna! The battle is saved!” 

To break Snow’s dark curse, the one who

sought to dispel it had to carve a sacred 

rune on a massive boulder and then use their 

own blood to activate it. 

When the blood filled the grooves and dripped from the bottom, the curse would be broken. 

It took me two days to carve the rune and use my blood to activate it. 

Sure enough, our pack’s warriors achieved a great victory in the battle. 

Celebrations echoed throughout the pack.
