Kavi's POV
I was helping Luna in cooking. All of sudden the pack house had turned into panic mode and I noticed Luna was getting a message from mind link who was now weeping at the kitchen floor. I heard the loudest growl from Alpha's office. Mukilan was there who was also fuming in rage.
"What happened, Mukilan?"
I asked nervously.
"Dhayalan was attacked by Blood warriors and they have injected silver in his system."
My eyes widened as it was a sign of war. And I was so worried about Dhaya's state.
"Is he..."
I couldn't finish the sentence as the wave of pain blocked my throat.
"He has a very faint heartbeat. He would be here within a few seconds. Your mother was ordered to come here as well. Be with Luna and tell her he would be okay."
Mukilan advised me.
I can't!
I have important work than that. Fuck my cause! My friend and the future Alpha's life is much more important than anything. I didn't say it aloud but nodded my head and waited for the warriors to return with Dhaya. Aryan Uncle came in his wolf form carrying Dhaya on his back and howled to get him inside. His dress was fully soaked in blood. Rakshana instantly took Luna to another room telling some lie. I followed them and I connected with his heartbeat which was very low and the pain in his body was making my head dizzy. I noticed Sezhiyan shouting orders to get my mother immediately here. I hopped on the bed and held his hand. I called Alpha as Dhaya was having more silver than I expected. I could feel them in my nerves.
"Alpha, I need your help. I could heal him. But I need to take some of our pack member's energy to purify his system first. Then his healing would kick in and I could speed up healing."
His wolf was in surface and he looked at me like I have grown horns. My mom came in and gasped and rushed to the other side to check his pulse. It was getting low. My wolf was getting anxious. My mom gave Sezhiyan a sorry look.
"SEZHIYAN! His heartbeat was reducing quicker than I expected. No! No! No! Sorry, Sezhiyan. Will explain to you everything later."
I ran out of patience and absorbed in Sezhiyan's energy as he was too stunned to do anything. Everyone started getting panic when he fainted.
"Don't worry! He has just fainted. He would wake up within an hour or so. Now ask some warriors to come in quickly."
My wolf ordered them and she started to concentrate on purifying his system while healing the critical wounds with the energy I gained from Alpha Sezhiyan. His heartbeat started to rise to my relief. My mother fainted on seeing me healing him. I sucked some of her energy too. Luna came in and started crying but sat at the place where my mom was at first and held his hand in a light grip.
My eyes welled up on seeing her love for him. I quickly absorbed almost ten of the healthy warriors and asked Aryan uncle to let them rest and asked to send some nurses. I asked them to clean his dried blood off his body and they gasped on seeing his skin colour returning back alive. No one speaks anything to me. I knew I had lots of explanations to do. I never left Dhaya's hand. Physical touch has more effective for healing. And my wolf concentrated on absorbing the silver from his system.
I saw Mukilan at doorsteps and asked him to call Manohar from my phone and to inform everything. By attacking the future Alpha, the Blood Warriors' Alpha has risked his whole pack's future. It is a big breach. We have all right to request the council for removal of the Alpha and if the crime has been proved the person would be sentenced to life. But if it was started as a challenge, only the deed of inflicting silver would be the crime. Yet I could tell they have done it in the idea of killing him, but his Alpha blood and his will power kept him alive. We don't know what exactly happened there yet. Mukilan told that Manohar was in the nearby distance and he had promised to pay a visit.
I slightly stroked Dhaya's hair. There were many cuts on his body yet he was laying like he was in deep sleep. I realised I am getting dizzy as his Alpha blood need more of my energy to purify him and it is getting hard for me to keep myself awake. I can't drain all of the pack members. Already there was a threat of war. And in the urgency to save Dhaya, I absorbed Alpha's energy. So without Alpha, we would at least need other top-ranking wolves to defend ourself. Also, Sezhiyan had mentioned that blood warriors were hard trained ruthless killers.
My stomach growled when I smelled food. To my surprise, I saw Surya and Akhilan bringing the food inside the room. Surya brought my favourite Egg crepe with garlic chutney with pineapple juice. Akhilan had brought a heavenly smelling soup and from the look, I could tell he made it healthy. And he brought orange juice with him. They were fighting with their eyes challenging each other silently.
"Surya. I can't leave Dhaya's hand. Can you please feed me?"
He smiled and pulled a chair to sit. Akhilan had a defeated look and turned around to leave.
"I thought that soup was also for me!"
I stated in a whisper. Akhilan turned with a big grin and came near me.
"Surya will help me to eat. Would you give that to him? Thanks, both of you. It was very thoughtful of you two to feed me something. I really need some energy."
They nodded with a smile and Akhilan left with a jealous look. My wolf loved the way he was possessive over us. When I finished eating, I felt his system completely pure.
His healing quickened and I helped him to heal with my power I saved from the warriors. I sensed a strong aura and found Manohar coming inside the room. He looked at him surprised as there was photo evidence for how badly Dhaya had been injured. And now all his wounds were closed and he may wake up any second. I was still connected to him but I am currently concentrating on gaining back my energy just in case if anything happens. Also, his wolf was helping to heal him nicely. I never healed someone this critical and I never helped someone to heal fully. As of now, he is alright with his calm heartbeat. Manohar patted my shoulder and went out. Soon Sezhiyan rushed inside and looked at his son with a relieved sigh. Luna instantly launched herself on him and a fresh set of tears came from her. They visibly relaxed with the presence of each other.
"Thank you very much, Kavi. I don't even want to imagine what would have happened if you hadn't helped our son."
She hugged me and wept silently. Alpha has a look of gratitude but his posture was enraged and I knew the reason.
"I asked Mukilan to inform about the incident to Manohar. I think he is still here, Sezhiyan. Consult with him before doing anything."
He gave me a nod and kissed his mate before leaving the room.
Luna sat beside me and waited for her son to wake up. Thankfully, Tamizh was in her aunt's home which was in my old (Mountain Shadows) pack. She would be coming anytime now. Good thing, she didn't happen to see her brother in that state.
After two hours, Dhaya opened his eyes. I left his hand and stood up to examine him. He looked at me in confusion and sat up and looked at himself. He smiled at me and his mom while shaking his head. His bloodied clothes were now changed into a t-shirt and sweatpants.
"I think I had a weird dream."
He spoke out distantly.
"Of what?"
Luna asked him slowly.
"I dreamt of dying! But it felt so real."
Luna hugged him in a tight embrace and started shaking again. She has a strong will power. But when it comes to the loved one, it always turns out to be a weakness for everyone. Dhaya was startled at first but then he looked at me as if he realised something.
"So it really happened? But how did I...?"
He looked down at himself again.
"Kavi healed you."
Luna answered his question. He looked up at me with wide eyes. I guiltily nodded. Sorry, Dhaya. But I have more secrets!
