Valerie’s hope was slowly returning when Alice said, "I think we’ll need Raven. Her skill was gifted to her, but I’m a learner. This is a complicated situation, but I can maintain his condition until she gets here."

It made sense to Valerie, and the fact that Denzel also planned to call Raven due to what he said to the doctor.

Raven never lost hope even in the darkest moments. "Okay, I will call her, but I don’t have my phone. Moonlight, go get it with Denzel’s. We shall be at the cottage."

They had come to realize that nature was one of the fastest medicines for healing. It was late, but when Luna Raven received the call, she rushed over with Alpha Ludwig.

Seeing Denver so lifeless, her heart sank for the first time, but she forced a smile as she began to examine him before explaining her observation.

"Alpha Denzel, Luna Valerie, please be strong. Your faith kept us alive more than any herb ever did," Raven said, remembering how Alpha Denzel never accepted any negativity before.

Being a Luna and a mother, Raven had matured a lot and also lost that innocence. She looked more mature and beautiful.

"Alice, I will write a list of herbs for you to get. I planted them, so I know the pack has them," Raven said. Alice nodded. "Sure."

After getting the list, she left with Burke and Monterey to get the herbs. "I need a dagger," Alice requested, eyes widened in confusion as Valerie asked.

"Dagger?"

Alpha Denzel already stormed inside the kitchen to get one. He knew that if Raven asked for it, then she needed it, and since he had no idea how she was going to do it, the least he could do was offer his help in any way he could.

"We also need some disposable medical mats," she requested, Moonlight responded.

"I will get it from the hospital."

Her speed was amazing, and in less than two minutes, she returned with a pack of disposable mats.

Denver was lifted from the bed, the disposable mat was laid before he was placed on it. When Raven received the dagger, she issued a warning.

"Whoever cannot watch can wait outside."

This was the first time she had to use this method, knowing how hard it might be to watch. Yet, no one moved as they were rather filled with curiosity until she began to stab Denver with the knife.

"What are you doing?" Valerie asked, her heart sinking. However, she was not feeling the effect of the knife like she felt her son’s broken bones.

"Luna Valerie, please look at the color of the blood. If I don’t get them out in time, he would never be able to use his limbs again," Raven explained, the understanding settled in, and Denzel was happy that his spirit was in agreement with Alice when she asked that Raven should come and take care of this.

Valerie froze when she saw how the blood had all turned green, and Denver made no movement, meaning he was not feeling the pain when she equally did not feel it.

The more Raven stabbed, the greener the liquid coming out from where she stabbed. Denver’s legs were covered with sores in no time before she moved to his hands and upper body.

Denver was so pale and cold as more green liquid came out. Raven only stopped when she saw the red liquid, a sigh of relief escaping her.

For a moment, she almost lost hope. If the red liquid had continued, then it would have meant that Denver would not live, but so far as that toxic blood was out of his system, he would survive.

Raven found it strange how his own body poisoned his blood because of the broken bone. Denver was indeed a strange teenager.

Denzel and Valerie realized that Raven’s methods had changed, showing the depth of her experience.

"It’s time to wipe him off the toxic blood, but don’t worry. As soon as he gets his wolf, the sores, even if they turn to scars, would disappear."

The news was enough to give them hope as Raven soaked a towel in warm water and began to wipe the toxic blood, beginning from his face.

When she was done, the disposable mat was replaced before she began to apply the herbs into the cuts she made.

Color was slowly returning to Denver’s face, but there was no movement whatsoever. Denver was wrapped with a gauze by the time Raven was done, but she stayed for three days to monitor his condition.

"Alpha, I’ve done my part, but the rest is up to him. Alice, after the wounds heal, you don’t have to apply the herbs anymore, but at least a tablespoon of liquid should be fed to him," Raven instructed, Alpha Denzel was disturbed.

"He’s in a coma, so how can he be fed?" He asked, Moonlight smiled. "I will take care of it."

Raven smiled and instructed Moonlight. "Moonlight, I know that Denver shares a special bond with you. You should never leave his side."

Moonlight held Denver’s hand. She never thought to ever leave his side. He was going to be her personal responsibility, and she would take care of him, just as he always took care of her.

"I won’t."

"Alpha Denzel, Luna Valerie, I shall take my leave now," Raven finally said, rising to her feet. She had a lot of responsibilities, and so did her mate, but the pups were also a handful.

"Thank you, Raven, and Alpha Ludwig. You have no idea how grateful we are. Take good care of the pups," Alpha Denzel said, Raven smiled.

"It’s always a pleasure to serve you, Alpha Denzel and Luna Valerie. You are the ones who gave me the chance."

In a coded location, there was a secret meeting going on, and someone was being punished.

"How could you fail? The Evergreen pack only lost a few warriors, so what is your explanation?"

The person being addressed head was lowered, but a smile tugged at the corner of his lips.

"Did you not hear? The pup of the Evergreen pack is dead. He was stronger than Alpha Denzel, so if we succeeded in getting rid of him, we could as well remove the father..."
