CHAPTER 109

~Zara's POV~

As Layla ground the herbs, their earthy scent filled the room, blending with the honey she stirred in. With a steady hand, she mixed everything into a thick paste and handed me the bowl.

"Drink it slowly," she said calmly but firmly. "This will counteract the wolfsbane, though it'll take a few days to fully clear your system."

I took a small sip, wrinkling my nose at the bitterness though softened by the honey. Almost immediately, warmth spread through me, reaching deep into my muscles and slowly loosening the weight the wolfsbane had left behind.

Snow stood nearby, watching every change on my face silently. His eyes held an edge, a quiet pride mixed with relief as if he could sense each wave of ease passing through me.
