VALENCIA’S POV
"Why is she not awake yet?"
"I don’t know,"
"I swear I was scared when I saw her like that,"
I heard whispers around , making furrow my brows.
My head felt effortless, as if soone hamred my skull.
’Are you okay?’ Aurora’s voice entered my head, and I scowled at her.
’So you are finally speaking. What the hell happened?’ I asked her, but seeing her go silent again, I knew she didn’t want to talk about it. I didn’t want to waste my ti asking her, either.
There were already a few people I needed to interact with.
Opening my eyes gently, wincing at the light, I was about to ask what was wrong when Dylan hovered over , blocking the light from hurting my eyes. I smiled at him gratefully.
"What happened?" He directly asked.
"Shouldn’t you be asking if I was alright rather than asking what happened? You don’t love anymore," I pouted.
Dylan didn’t say anything and just kept glaring at . Seeing that my humor wasn’t well received, I stopped being funny and sighed before telling them I didn’t really have any idea what exactly happened.
One mont, I was about to dial Mavericks’ number and the next, my vision was darkening. It didn’t give any chance to call for anyone’s help, if that made sense.
I watched Jonathan, Mason, Carl, Dylan, and Aarav, who were standing in my room, look at as if I were so sick patient. I was about to ask them what was wrong before Uncle Jonathan walked over to .
"Aarav told you have been spending an atrocious amount of ti near the fields," Jonathan said, and I was about to tell him they were lovely when I felt his presence.
My heart skipped a beat imdiately, and a blush rose on my cheeks as I realized how much I missed his presence.
"Alpha Maverick is here, isn’t he?" I asked rather than answering, and as soon as I said those words, a guard knocked on the door of my room.
"Sir, Alpha Maverick has arrived," the guard said, and everyone looked back at , making smile sheepishly.
"I can’t believe you guys haven’t marked each other yet," Uncle Jonathan said, and I blushed even harder at his words.
Was it really weird that I could feel his presence from so far? However, I don’t feel his presence when he is sowhere around .
Does it have anything to do with the fact that my heart was missing him terribly?
"Can you guys not tell him about this unconscious event? I haven’t said a word about it to him yet. Let figure out what is happening, and I will tell him myself," I said.
My man was already struggling with the rogues and their battles. The last thing I wanted for him was to worry about my health.
Besides, with no idea what was going on, I would just be adding more to his plate. I want to lessen his burden rather than beco a burden on him myself.
"Fine. We will have a good talk about it after the ceremony," Dylan said, and I nodded in understanding.
They left one by one, and I looked at Uncle Jonathan, who seed to have sothing to say.
"What is it?" I asked him.
"We still don’t know what those plants are, but I rember your father saying that he was planting them for you. At that ti, you were only in your mother’s womb. But he still planted those plants for you and took a promise from that I will always take care of them for you," Uncle Jonathan said.
I didn’t know what he was trying to say here.
Was he indirectly telling that all of this was happening because I was spending more ti near those flowers? Were those flowers harmful to ? But if that was the case, why did my father plant them in my na in the first place?
There is no way my father wanted to harm . It is obviously for my benefit, but what kind of benefit? Even Aurora was silent about the matter, not telling what was happening, and it was becoming hard to decipher things now.
"It might be sothing related to the curse. Your mom and dad knew about the curse way before because of her grandmother, who actually took the curse and passed it through the generations," Uncle Jonathan paused.
"Actually, what happened was..." he started before shaking his breath.
He told that it wasn’t the correct ti to discuss such things, and I nodded in understanding.
More than half of the alphas were already here, and the rest were coming. He needed to be down there to attend to those alphas rather than discussing so kind of curse with , which we can do any other ti.
I took a deep breath and nodded at him.
"I won’t allow Alpha Maverick to co here for obvious reasons. I heard what happened in the hall between Matilda and you," Uncle Jonathan said.
’Who is he to decide whether we can et our man or not?’ Aurora didn’t like the arrangent.
I told her he was our uncle before asking Uncle Jonathan why he didn’t want Maverick to et .

"Don’t you understand? I am not stopping you guys from eting, but not alone in a room like this. Not after what you said to Matilda. If Alpha Maverick ca here to et you when everyone knows what is happening between you, wouldn’t people spread rumors? He hasn’t marked you yet," Uncle Jonathan said.
’But he has already announced to the world that we are his woman and the one person he will marry and make his Luna,’ Aurora retorted.
I didn’t say anything to Uncle Jonathan and just smiled at him.
"Okay, I understand," I said, knowing all too well how tough this job of him stopping away from would be for him.
I know they won’t be able to stop him, but I didn’t want to take away that benefit of doubt from them either.
"I will get changed in so ti," I told him and he nodded before saying a few words about who I should call soone. I felt the sa dizziness again before he left.
I took a deep breath before looking at Aurora.
’Aren;t you being quite verbal today?’ I sighed, looking at my phone that had a missed call from our man already.
