The two of them ate slowly. Only after they finished did they walk out together.
The male had been waiting for a long time. He didn’t dare complain. His attitude was much better now.
“Fiona is sick. Ms. Palmer isn’t here. Could you please come take a look?”
Claire raised a brow.
Everyone knew she had been learning medicine from Elodie. Sometimes sick beastfolk came to her. At first, she just treated them for practice. But after a few cases, she actually cured them. Even Elodie had praised her.
Still, Fiona had never come to her like this before. Something felt off.
“Could this be a trap again?”
Even though she had doubts, Claire followed the man toward Fiona’s cave.
Zane stayed right beside her, casting cold looks at the reckless male from time to time.
A crowd had already gathered outside Fiona’s cave. Even with all the chatter, Fiona’s cries were still loud.
“So itchy! I’m going crazy! Scratch harder!”
The male leading them finally let out a breath of relief. That walk had been torture.
He pushed through the crowd and led Claire and Zane inside.
Fiona’s cave was big and well stocked. The pile of animal hides in the corner alone was huge.
Several of her mates surrounded her, scratching her body as she ordered.
They were already using a lot of force, but Fiona still wasn’t satisfied. “Harder! More!”
Her upper body was covered in red marks. Her skin was swollen. Every time she scratched, it left a cut. Blood seeped out and stained her fur tunic.
“So hot… so itchy… it hurts! I can’t take it. I need to take this off!”
Without caring that others were outside, she started pulling at her clothes.
Just then, Gavin pushed through the crowd. Seeing her about to strip in front of everyone, he slapped her twice.
