Don’t make me, or you will receive a beating from me.\" He promised her. \"Now tell me. What are you doing in my bath? How dare you step into my chambers?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-I... lady B-Belinda instructed me to serve you your water.\" She explained that sweat was going down her forehead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are not instructed to work in my chambers.\" He said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Y-yes. But all the maids were gone, and with what happened in the evening, She said she had to face things herself.\" She explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He just stared at her. \"Leave. I already have the water to bathe. I can bathe myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at him in surprise. \"But my lord. You just requested that I wash you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you are a slut washing your father’s guests, then your hands would not touch mine.\" He shot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jasmine flinched back without meaning to do so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sting of hurt was present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew what he was saying, and even then, she still had not been allowed to bathe any alpha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, he would not know this because he saw her as nothing but the daughter of his enemy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seemed like a rat hiding from its predator while she was the cat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was backed to the far end of the bath as a touch from her would burn him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please, your majesty.\" She managed. \"Your wounds will be infected.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I said leave! I can handle it myself.\" He started rising from the bath but weakly dropped down in a splash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hurriedly went to his side and held him before gently easing him back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re hurt.\" She expressed. \"If you don’t let me heal you now, then the wound will go bad. You might not be able to perform the last ritual.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He chuckled. \"I assure you that whether I am wounded or not, I can perform the last ritual.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She frowned. She didn’t understand what he meant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he felt a smile creak up his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had always seen her face downward; she rarely made any expressions, but seeing her frown was the first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it amused him to see her red brows gathered together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don’t know what the final ritual is about, do you?\" He asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She shook her head innocently. \"No, my lord.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was odd; as the daughter of an Alpha, she was to know all about their festival and rituals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s all about fucking.\" He said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw the horror in her face and stopped himself from laughing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then he felt his arm burn, and he groaned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please.\" She begged him. \"Let me heal you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at her, and then he sighed, giving in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She rose and hurried out to get her supplies from the bedroom.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she returned, she set it aside as she cleaned the wound neatly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She opened the door, which was already slightly open, and saw it was already getting infected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her face went grim, and then she sighed and gently cleaned the split ends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was a pregnant silence over them, and I felt her hands shaking as she worked on it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How did you learn how to nurse people?\" He asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"When I was young, I liked visiting our healer’s quarters to watch her. I picked the interest.\" She explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And so now you are here to heal us or find a way to kill me.\" He said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She flinched, remembering what Alexander had said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She would be his accomplice in killing Xaden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wouldn’t do such.\" She said. \"But I cannot deter your mind.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He said nothing as she picked up a tiny bottle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This might hurt my lord.\" She said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she poured its contents into the open wound, and he groaned in pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What the bloody hell is that?\" He demanded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s an elixir.\" She said. \"It would kill the infection already growing. I’m sorry, my lord.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, she neatly cleaned it and picked up the needle and thread to sew it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’re you doing in that lake?\" He asked. \"And naked.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She swallowed. \"No one was there. No one ever comes. I just wanted to be free. I swear my life to you. I awaited no one there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He saw a red lock go loose from her hair, and the urge to set it across her ear burned through him, but he withstood the temptation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He tilted his head away to prevent him from staring at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He withstood the gentle motion of her sewing the wound until it was neatly secured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she picked up a pair of scissors and gently cut the thread.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your wounds would be fine.\" She said. \"But I’m afraid you shouldn’t put a strain on it. It could open up and get worse.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His face remained facing elsewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she quietly said, \"I would give you some treatments that would ease the pain and speed up the process.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He still said nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She gathered her supplies and began to rise to her feet when she felt a hand stop her and pull her back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She fell into the bath with him, and there was a loud splash.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were barely a few inches between them, and both breathed heavily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hunger, tension, desire, and raw, hungry chemistry hung in the air so powerfully that you could taste it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then he did what he had been holding back the night of the hunt when he had seen her naked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took her lips in a fierce kiss.\u003C\u002Fp>",1028,"2026-06-06T04:22:13.101Z",1,"novelbin.me","f10138e5d7dc928cc81a09da53571406f76256d4964a0ece63a4911a639dec42","the-alpha-s-unwanted-bride-chapter-95","the-alpha-s-unwanted-bride-chapter-93",728,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-alpha-s-unwanted-bride-cover.jpg"]
