"Could this be divine powers? If so... could it be the Saintess who healed him?" one of the doctors suddenly blurted out, disbelief and awe in his voice.
When Levi’s condition worsened during the operation, the healer they had been waiting for finally arrived. But even then, his healing abilities did little to help. No matter how many times he poured his healing power into Levi’s wound, it barely made a difference; the damage caused by the silver dagger was simply too severe.
In the end, the healer could only shake his head helplessly, exhausted and admitting that his powers were useless in this situation.
That was why, the moment someone mentioned divine power, almost everyone accepted it without question. Divine healing was known to be on a completely different level, far stronger than any ordinary healing ability.
Even holy water couldn’t produce results this drastic, so they couldn’t think of any explanation other than divine intervention.
"If it really was divine power, then healing him to this extent would be possible. However," the lead doctor continued, "if the Saintess were truly here, there’s no way we wouldn’t have been informed. The Alpha would have summoned all of us to receive her."
"Since nothing of that sort happened, it means the Saintess wasn’t here at all. And if someone did heal Beta Levi... then it wasn’t the Saintess, but someone with the same level of divine healing power."
The lead doctor concluded his deduction while studying Levi closely. Levi, who was quietly buttoning his shirt, paused. His ears twitched at the doctor’s words, and a thought flashed through his mind.
’In the forbidden forest... Addison made a contract with the light fairy...’
’Could it be... her?’ he wondered silently.
The moment the thought crossed his mind, Levi’s heart skipped a beat. It was another possible explanation, perhaps even the most logical one. For his wounds to heal so completely, without a single scar, and for every trace of wolfsbane and silver to vanish from his system... only divine power could accomplish that.
And if the Saintess wasn’t here to perform such a miracle, then only one person remained.
Addison.
As he followed that line of reasoning, everything that had happened slowly began falling into place. Pieces of the puzzle aligned in his mind one by one, forming a truth he could no longer ignore.
’So that’s why Addison collapsed? Maybe her body couldn’t handle using such an unfamiliar power all at once... she must’ve gone into shock.’
The moment that realization struck him, Levi’s heart skipped. Without wasting a second, he hurried out of the room, leaving the doctors absorbed in their own theories and speculations.
He rushed back to the ICU only to find Zion and Maxwell already fast asleep on either side of Addison. Her complexion hadn’t improved; still pale, and still frighteningly cold.
Quietly, Levi shifted into his wolf form, climbed onto the bed, and curled himself around Addison’s legs, trying to give her as much warmth as he could. Her skin felt icy, and instinctively, he wrapped himself closer.
As she shifted slightly, she sensed warm breath near her, several of them, steady, calm, surrounding her. Panic surged for a heartbeat, but then familiar scents wrapped around her like a blanket. A comforting presence washed over her, soothing the tension in her chest.
Her eyes adjusted slowly, shapes sharpening in the shadows. Right beside her lay two familiar silhouettes, their bodies curled protectively around her. And below, she noticed the large wolf draped over her legs, his massive form covering her like a living, breathing blanket. Even his long, fluffy tail was curled around her waist, as if terrified she might grow cold without it.
But it seemed the three were sleeping far too comfortably to notice her waking up. Addison had no choice but to stay frozen in place and wait for them to come to their senses. Her legs and arms were already going numb.
Zion lay on her right, his large frame curled protectively around her as his arm cinched firmly around her waist, effectively trapping her right arm beneath him. On her left, Maxwell had one arm draped just under her breast, pinning her other arm to her side as he breathed steadily against her shoulder.
And then there was Levi, in his wolf form, sprawled over her legs like an oversized heated blanket, his thick, fluffy tail wrapped possessively over her stomach.
Addison didn’t know whether she was dreaming or actually awake. Just looking at how the three of them were piled on top of her made her temple throb.
She wanted to smack someone, anyone, because she truly felt like she’d turned into their personal human pillow. But seeing their exhausted faces, knowing how drained they all were, and that Levi had nearly died, she swallowed her irritation and sighed. In the end, she just didn’t have the heart to shove any of them off.
But the moment she remembered Levi’s injury, her heart skipped violently, a jolt of fear shooting through her chest. Worry surged anew as her eyes fell on the massive wolf curled protectively around her legs, and she couldn’t help but worry even now.
Then she remembered the last thing she saw before losing consciousness and instinctively reached out to Sihda. "Sihda, are you there?" she sent the thought into her mind, knowing Sihda could hear her.
