Chapter 35: 35. Before the Storm

Dr. Howard covered his face with his hands and kept on thanking Moon Goddess. He let out a whimper, which made the guards furrow their brows in confusion. "Is he crying?" One asked the other.

"Yes!" Dr. Howard shouted, startling them.

"I am crying. And I'm laughing too." He chuckled while tears were streaming down his face. "Oh! Finally!" He laughed.

"Move!" He shoved the guards on his way to pick up his ringing phone.

"Hello, Alpha." He greeted enthusiastically. "I have a very good news. In fact, the best news ever. I have found the cure for Xanthus." He spat the last word with disgust.

He went silent for a while to hear from the other side.

Once again he burst with excitement. "What is it, you ask? First of all Alpha, it isn't an it. It's a she. Her blood."

"Her blood? How? Anyway, who is she?" The guards heard their Alpha ask.

"She is our savior. She is a gift from our goddess." They slapped their forehead when they heard the doctor say it.
