Chapter 35: Will power

The following morning

Sitting beside Aurora's bed, Scarlet anxiously watched over her while the pack doctor attended to her. 

Concerned, Scarlet asked, "Is she showing any signs?" Yesterday, Enoch assured her that Aurora was recovering, so why did she appear so weak now?

"Her condition is puzzling. It's as if she's struggling to come back and also holding on to something. Her body is weak," the pack doctor apologized, unable to comprehend what was happening to Aurora. She had shown stable signs yesterday, but now her condition was deteriorating.

"What does that mean?" Scarlet asked, her eyes filling with anger as she sat up straight. Enoch had assured her that Aurora was improving, so what was the pack doctor yarning about? 

"It's quite unusual. There's no further medical treatment we can provide. It seems we have to rely on her willpower, on whatever she's holding onto," the pack doctor explained, offering the most reasonable explanation for Aurora's state.
