Curves And Claws: The Lycan King's Relentless Claim novel Chapter 4

I couldn't find many herbs. Since I didn't know what kind of poison he had in his body, I collected the common healing herbs and anti-poison herbs to control the damage.

Rye was so adamant about collecting more. She was in pain and desperate to protect her mate, despite knowing that she was already married to another. But in our mind, Alexander was already someone we were ready to get rid of from our heart. So I didn't stop her.

As we returned with the herbs, we noticed him still laying on the floor. But to my surprise, Candy was there, laying next to him.

The moment she saw me, she ran towards me and started rubbing her forehead on my arms. She nickered at me with excitement.

"Did you think I disappeared?" I chuckled softly and hugged her. She might have been laying next to the Lycan because of my clothes around him.

I rubbed her belly while walking towards him. The bleeding had stopped, thankfully. His face was pale, but I couldn't do more since there was no way I could carry him.

But when Candy groaned on the soft bush, I realized that I could do more than just helping him.

I turned to Candy, who was munching on the banana leaf. She turned to me and groaned again.

"I need help, Candy!" I stood up and walked to the enormous Lycan's head. He was still unconscious, thankfully. Otherwise, he would have thrown another childish tantrum.

"We need to take him to the Healer's residence. Help me lift him!"

Candy stood up immediately and stood before me. I lifted him barely, Rye lending me her strength to make it possible.

As I was able to lift half of his body, Candy knelt, making it easier for me to throw his heavy figure onto her back.

"Thank you, Love! You did a good job!" I kissed Candy's forehead and watched her stand up.

She neighed excitedly while lowering herself again.

"I am riding, Love. Just a bit!"

I grabbed the herbs from the ground and rode her within a few minutes. "Let's go, Candy. We are going to protect a person!"

She snorted, biting a banana leaf before heading to the clearings.

Through emerald corridors of tangled shade, she ran like a blur of muscle and sinew, her mane a flowing ribbon in the forest air. Her hooves beat a drum on the damp and mossy ground. She looked like a fairy in the world of green and golden sunlight.

Rye purred. Her senses were clouded by his presence. His scent, thick and dominant, kept our bond throbbing. She wanted to feel her mate, touch him. But she knew how restricted we were. Not until we were free from Alexander, we couldn't do anything.

Candy, my sweet baby, arrived at the Pack Healer's residence through the woods, avoiding any members of the Pack. She was as intelligent as ever. She knew how to protect me from bad people.

"Thank you!" I gave another kiss on her forehead after getting off her back. Then I rushed to the door and started knocking.

"Healer Oliver! Are you home? It's urgent!"

I shouted his name. Healer Oliver was a man of words. He would never disclose any information about anyone, and I trusted him like my grandpa when he was alive.

It took around one minute before the door was unlocked from inside. I stepped away for a few steps.
