Nine Hot Therians and Their Only One Queen novel Chapter 483

**When She Opened the Door to the Life She Was Afraid to Live by Nora Vale Kingsley**
**Chapter 483: The Last Holy Medicine**

Alaric’s voice broke through the tension in the room, his words laced with an unexpected sense of relief. “I honestly didn’t believe there was any holy medicine left that could possibly heal Stella’s scars.”

He had been caught off guard by the revelation that Calum still possessed a vial of such rarity, a hidden treasure that could potentially change everything for his sister.

Silas, who had always been resolute and unwavering, found himself faced with a dilemma he couldn’t simply brush aside.

Turning to Emma, Alaric’s expression shifted to one of earnest gratitude. “No matter the outcome, I am truly thankful to Marshal Calum for retrieving this medicine for me.”

Emma’s mind wandered back to Stella’s recounting of her futile attempts to find relief. She had tried everything imaginable, even going so far as to consume the elusive fruit from Beast God Mountain, yet nothing seemed to work.

The thought that Alaric had even sought the Beast God’s assistance weighed heavily on her. If the Beast God, a being of immense power, was unable to heal Stella’s face, then perhaps the divine was not as invincible as many believed.

“Mr. Wynn, please don’t concern yourself too much with it. Stella is my friend; I’m more than happy to assist her,” Calum interjected, his tone reassuring yet laced with uncertainty.

But the reality loomed—there was no guarantee that Calum’s medicine would indeed work on Stella.

Before long, Calum returned, his presence commanding attention as he approached Silas with purpose. He reached into his storage band, producing a sleek, high-tech box that gleamed under the dim light.

“The medicine is contained within this,” he declared, handing it over to Silas with a sense of gravity.

Silas accepted the box, passing it to Alaric with a nod. “I sincerely hope this restores your sister’s face,” he said, his voice steady but filled with a hint of concern.

“Thank you,” Alaric replied, his heart racing as he opened the box in front of the gathered friends.

Upon seeing the vial nestled inside, a spark of excitement ignited in his chest. He turned to Emma, his eyes shining with hope. “This is it! Emma, thank you so very much.”

With careful hands, he secured the medicine and then faced Silas. “You’re leaving tomorrow, right? I’ll treat Stella today, and then I’ll accompany you back to the Central Planet.”

Silas, ever the strategist, noted the importance of Alaric’s skills. “Having a top-tier private doctor like you is far too valuable to leave behind. Especially now that we have the holy medicine; it’s only logical to utilize your expertise to the fullest.”

“Then I’ll rely on you for the journey back to the Central Planet, Mr. Wynn,” Silas said, a hint of camaraderie in his voice.

Once Alaric departed, Emma turned to Silas, her brow knitted in confusion. She gently tugged on his hand. “Why did you agree so readily to let Alaric return with us to the Central Planet?”

It baffled her that Silas seemed oblivious to the feelings Alaric harbored for her.

Silas settled himself on the edge of the bed, a soft smile gracing his lips as he regarded her. “I’m fully aware of his feelings for you. However, his medical expertise is far too invaluable to overlook. We didn’t bring a doctor, and the local practitioners leave much to be desired. Having Alaric care for you and Lucien on our journey back adds an essential layer of security.”

He squeezed her hand gently, his gaze unwavering. “Emy, what Alaric feels doesn’t concern me. If you’re not interested, I’ll ensure he never gets a chance to confess his feelings to you. Right now, your wellbeing and that of the cub you carry are my utmost priority.”

Emma felt a wave of trust wash over her, knowing Silas would protect her from any unwanted advances.
