Becoming Alpha’s Personal Caretaker
Chapter 9

Lauren POV

I had to stop Bella before she revealed more secrets and then I regained control of my body.

"Bella! You're being reckless!"

I locked the door and blocked my mind link from everyone.

But Bella couldn't care less and said, "You want me you help him anyway. You would've told him everything back in his ward if it weren't for that nurse."

"I wasn't thinking straight..." I tried to argue with her and talk sense into her so that she wouldn't do such things again, "even though he's our patient, we don't even know him yet. What if he knows about our power and uses it against us?"

The healing ability of werewolves was strong enough itself but the damage to one's mind was hard to be healed. If attacked by particular poisons or weapons made out of silver, a werewolf might even die. But the healing power that Bella and I possessed could heal these kinds of wounds and normal injuries.

Such kind of healing power was rarely found in werewolves and one werewolf who had this power was imprisoned by a dark alpha and marked by him against her will. She was seen as his belonging.

So when I grew up, I kept it a secret and chose to be a doctor. I thought I was able to deal with Victor's condition when I knew that he lost his wolf after he was attacked by the Dark Enchantress. After all, Bella could sense that his wolf was just hidden somewhere and couldn't show himself.

"It's just not the right time to do this. I think we should wait until Victor and I can trust each other or I'm capable enough to make a fair deal with him. Let's just focus on his legs now," I said seriously.

"Fine. We'll wait for the perfect timing to find his wolf," Bella said, "and I feel like I can get along with his wolf though I don't know why I'm so sure about that."

"I don't know if his wolf will be nice yet. Victor's temper is not good and he doesn't talk much. And when he talks, he was quite mean sometimes." I started roasting him with no mercy.

"But he's hot. Too bad that you didn't insist on finishing that s****l function checkup," Bella said with pity.

I rolled my eyes and ignored her.

Though I must admit that Victor was quite muscular and even the muscles of his legs were quite firm although he couldn't walk now. I guessed that he must have six packs and be quite a sexy guy.

Just as we were bickering, someone knocked on the door. I had learned from my mistake this time and asked, "Who is it?"

The assisting nurse said behind the door, "It's me, Dr Blanco. Alpha Victor's beta has something to say to you."

Victor's beta?

I opened the door and let them in. This beta seemed to be a nice and friendly guy, unlike Victor who was cold as ice.

The beta said politely, "Miss Lauren, I'm alpha Victor's beta, Richard. He told me that you'll be his private doctor and caretaker. He hopes that you could leave the hospital and move into Hill Estate with him tomorrow. You won't be bothered there and you'll be able to concentrate on his treatment."

He wanted me to leave the hospital tomorrow?

And move into Hill Estate with him?

As I was still overwhelmed by this news, Richard proceeded gently, "I wonder what time is more convenient for you. Some servants will come and pick you up tomorrow."

"So soon?" I asked.

Richard answered gracefully, "Alpha Victor advised that you should move into Hill Estate as soon as possible. The son of the alpha of the Lunarko Tribe seemed to have a huge fight with his father." Huh?

A fight so huge that even others knew about it How huge exactly it was?

"It's said that they're arguing over his right to inheritance but I'm not aware of the reason," Richard added.

I almost choked on my coffee when I heard that. Was it about Janice? He could even give up his right to inheritance just to marry Janice?

Janice POV

"No, father, there's no way I'm gonna marry Lauren. She's wicked and she almost killed Janice's baby. I don't think this woman is qualified to be a Luna."

Michael was arguing with his father, alpha Kean on the phone. I could tell how hard he was trying to suppress his anger and resentment from his voice.

"That baby belongs with the Lunarko Tribe and I can't just leave him out there. Trust me, Janice is kind and has a good heart. She's gonna be a better Luna than Lauren."

I didn't know what exactly alpha Kean said but Michael looked stunned. I could see how outrageous he was through the glass window.

"I...but I can't just marry Lauren like that..."

Alpha Kean hung up on him and Michael clutched his hair out of frustration. He took a deep breath and was about to walk in here.

I ran back to my sickbed and pretended to be weak, trying to fake some tears.

"Michael, Uncle Kean still wouldn't allow us to get married?" I pretended like I was holding back my tears, which was the best way to get a man to feel sorry for me and it worked every single time. Expectantly, Michael looked depressed and didn't even dare to look me in the eyes, "Janice, I'm sorry...but my father said that if I choose to marry you, I'll have to renounce my claim to the tribe." Though I had prepared myself for this, I didn't expect that this bastard Kean would take it so far!

This was his own son and he wanted Michael to give up his right to inheritance? But without his inheritance, Michael would be useless to me!

I instantly started to panic. I had earned this chance by putting my own child's life at risk. I couldn't just give up now.

I tried to fight back my wrath and gave him my puppy eyes, saying in a sweet and sad tone, "I can't let you lose your inheritance because of me, Michael. I can't be that selfish..."

Michael was greatly moved and held me in his arms, "There's another option. We give up on this baby and then we can get married."

I was stunned.

Gave up on this baby?

"The Fullmoon Tribe and the Lunarko Tribe won't be happy about this child. They would think that you're using this child to steal me from Lauren..." Lauren!

It was about that bitch all along!

I held on to Michael and clenched my fists. It must be that bitch who gave alpha Kean that piece of advice. This wicked bitch!

If I agreed to that requirement without hesitation, I would prove them right and make myself look like I was trying to break off Lauren and Michael's engagement and be the Luna of the Lunarko Tribe. I couldn't do it! "Janice, I'm sorry..."

"Michael..." I used a pitiful tone to make him feel bad about this, "this is our baby, I can't. Just let me get away with him, please. Don't be so cruel to our child. He's done nothing wrong..."

No alpha could let his woman and his child become homeless.

Hearing that, Michael squeezed me harder and didn't say a word. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "I won't let you do that. Janice, let me figure something out." That was right.

I curled up in his arms and smiled contently.

Thank you, Michael, for being such an idiot and making it so much easier for me to play you like a violin.

Lauren, wait till I became the Luna of the Lunarko Tribe. I would definitely make you pay for this!
