The Alpha's Unwanted Bride novel Chapter 318

Chapter 318: MURDER

Jasmine watched as Urma’s final procession was held unable to believe what was happening.

She slowly walked to where Urma lay and her hand trembled as she gently touched the wood.

"No but she was fine." Jasmine said. "She was fine when I left. She was okay."

The funeral procession ignored her and carried on with their burial rites.

The tears gathered in her eyes .

How long was she going to suffer?

How long was she going to lose people the moment she grasped them.

"She was okay." Jasmine said reaching Urma and holding her.

She began to shake her. "Wake up Urma. Wake up. You are not dead."

And then Ned quickly grabbed her because the people holding the funeral procession were begin to get upset.

"Let me go." Jasmine said the tears flowing down her eyes. "Let me go."

And she finally managed to stop fighting.

She simply let the tears spill.

She watched as they resumed the funeral procession.

The death of a healer was held in a very private manner.

A group of people wearing white appeared from nowhere and performed the rights before finally taking away the body of the healer.

No one was allowed to witness the later occasion when the healer was taken away.

They simply left.

There were some rumors that a finally ritual would be held and then the powers and knowledge the healer had learned would go into the earth to be given to someone else.

But no one really knew.

Jasmine managed to stand up straight .

"What happened?" She asked Ned. "She was fine when I left her."

"She was fine too." Ned said. "We were just staying together and practicing the healing together when I found her dead."

Jasmine frowned picking sudden interest in beta he had to say. "She did not slump or anything? You just came in and found her dead?"

"I only left her for a minute." He said. "We were working on some medicine when someone knocked at the door and came in. She sent me to get some special herbs. So I left. I returned and seemed troubled. The person who had come to see her was already gone, I asked her what the issue was, but she shook it off."

"Eventually I was sent to get something else. It was only for a minute and when I came back she was already dead."

Jasmine’s mind began to race with a tunnel of thought.

"Wait. Wait. Wait. Someone came in? Who are you speaking of" She asked him. "What did he look like?"

Ned shrugged. "I barely even looked at the person. I am not sure if it was a woman or a man. He was well covered. Only the eyes showed. Urma seemed very uncomfortable. It was like the person had arrived and she had turned into an entirely different person."

Jasmine massaged her forehead.

Urma did not give a damn about anyone.

So why would she be fidgeting over a supposed visitor.

She pulled him aside out of the room and together they stood in a dark corner.

"So she got a visitor and she sent you away. And when you returned he or she was gone yes?" She asked him.

He nodded. "Yes."
