As they passed through the crowd Jasmine hoped that the men who were supposedly guarding her would hide her well.
But Jared turned around to speak to someone and stopped short when he saw her.
"Halt." He said.
Everyone stopped moving and then he walked up to where she was standing.
Xaden’s eyes followed him like a hungry wolf.
"You are with Bale’s daughter. So the rumors are true." He said sizing her up and down.
Jasmine hated him.
He was one of the many disgusting alphas that had eyes for her.
Had even made a passive joke about her father handing him to her.
But her father had said nothing.
Jared attempted to reach out to her face when Xaden cut him short immediately.
"Cut that fake shit. We already know that she is not his legitimate daughter." Xaden said already stepping in.
Jasmine was breathing heavily, looking him dead in the eye.
Jared gave her a malicious look and withdrew his hand and touched his hands together.
"Well you have the bastard." Jared said.
Xaden’s face clenched together in anger but said nothing.
Sensing the high tension but not willing to make any moves that will bring up immediate chaos, Jared stepped and turned to look at Xaden.
"I do not have any intentions on fighting with you Jared." Xaden said. "Not today at least. So do not make me."
Jared rose a brow. "Is that a threat?"
"Call it what you would like." Xaden replied with a shrug. "But I have said what needs to be said."
Jasmine wondered what the inner tension and unspoken words were all about.
Jared simply ignored Xaden and went on ahead.
Jasmine sighed in with heavy relief and they all resumed working.
"Wait. Wait."
Jasmine turned around and saw that it was a young man probably in his twenties running up to them with a very large bag on his back.
Then he went to walk with her to her surprise.
Her body guards became alert immediately.
She did not even know who he was.
"Hey I’m the healer." The man complained.
Erik who had witnessed the small commotion waved his hand.
"Let him he is who he says he is."
The guard frowned at Ned and then reluctantly pulled away his sword.
"Thank you." Ned said and going together with them.
"How are you feeling?" He asked. "I wa one one who treated you, you may not quite recall."
"Oh." She said in surprise. "Then that means that you saved my life. Thank you."
"You are welcome." He said.
"Yoh seem too young to be a healer a lot of the healers that I have met are usually old." She said.
"Yes but they all have to start from
Somewhere don’t they." He said. "I have been meaning to train and be a healer. Help people and also discover treatments that I tend healers have been unable to. I heard that your healer in the moonlight pack is very very gifted."
"Hey no whispering!" The guard snapped at them and she went hush. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
