บท 199: Chapter 190: Another request for help

Latham and Noaz were still talking about their suspicions and theories in regards to the warlock when they suddenly stopped talking. Both of them turned to look at the door and a few seconds later, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in," Latham called out.

The door opened to reveal Ezekiel, the Beta of the Cairin pack, standing outside their room.

The two brothers immediately stood up from the bed and before they could say anything, Ezekiel had already nodded to them in greeting and informed them that the Cairin Alpha would like to meet with the two of them in private in his office.

Both Latham and Noaz looked at each other before turning back to Ezekiel, nodding in agreement.

Soon after, the two brothers found themselves in Isaiah's office with the latter. Ezekiel had left the three of them alone for privacy while he went to deal with other pack matters.

A comfortable silence fell across the three men as they scrutinized one another.

Isaiah cleared his throat and turned to look at Latham. He looked down at the latter's newly formed hand and said, "It seems like the healing process was successful this time."

Latham nodded. Only he knew the feeling of the excruciating pain he had gone through from the procedure. He has Makena's blood mixed with wolfsbane in his body. At first, when he heard the healing procedure, he was ashamed to admit that he was a bit scared.

In order to subdue the side-effects of using Makena's blood, they had to mix it with wolfsbane. Other than mixing it in the blood, they even had to scrub the amputated area with the wolfsbane, which made it more than twice the pain that Latham had to go through.

There were days during the procedure that Latham had passed out so many times from the agony that it took some time for him to be conscious once more.

He was gratefully grateful that his mate, Melody wasn't around to witness his suffering. He did not want to see her looked so sad from seeing him in torment.

"So, in two days, you two will be going home?" Isaiah enquired, his hands linked together in front of him.

Both Latham and Noaz nodded once more. They then stood up together and bowed a little towards the Alpha, giving their thanks for his and his pack's hospitality.

Isaiah waved away their gratitude, replying that it was the least he and his pack would do after all the pain the Kendall pack had gone through to save his granddaughter as well. If it wasn't for the Kendall and the Cesaro packs' help, Isaiah would not have been able to see his granddaughter again.

The three men continued to talk with Isaiah trying to end the conversation by saying that any Kendall packmate was welcome to visit the Cairin Oaks. Especially when it comes to medical help since that was what the Cairin pack was best known for.

Just as Latham and Noaz were about to leave the room, the two of them received a mindlink from their Alpha. They suddenly stopped as they listened to Lachlan's orders.

Isaiah frowned in confusion when he saw the two brothers suddenly froze in their steps. Looking closer, he realized that they probably received a mindlink. He stood in front of them, patiently waiting for them to be done with the mindlink.

Shortly after, both Latham and Noaz blinked their eyes, as if to get rid of the haziness. Latham then turned to Isaiah, who was looking at them curiously.

He gave a little bow and said, "With all due respects, Alpha. We have another request to ask of you."

Isaiah nodded, gesturing to him to continue.

Latham cleared his throat before continuing, "We would like to ask for help, in regards to curing a shifter's bite."

In the mindlink earlier, their Alpha had told them what he had heard from Erick. According to the latter, Amber's brother had suffered an aftereffect of a shifter's bite and he wanted to help the brother. Hence why he had a talk with his father to request help from the Cairin Alpha, in regards of this.

Isaiah frowned. "Shifter's bite?" he repeated. From what he understands about shifter's bite, this usually affects the humans, not supernatural beings. If the Kendall pack asked for help because of a shifter's bite, does this mean that a human being was involved?

Knowing the question in the Alpha's mind, Latham helpfully answered, "Our Alpha's son's mate's family member has it. Apparently, the mother suffered from the shifter's bite but it was transferred down to the baby she was carrying back then. And now, the son has already shown signs of receiving the effects of the shifter's bite."

Isaiah's eyes widened in shock. "How old is he now?" he asked curiously.

"He's currently seven years old, Alpha."

Isaiah frowned, looking thoughtful. Seven years. It was a surprise that the effects had lasted this long and that it was finally showing. He was now more curious about this little boy.

Although getting a shifter's bite was relatively rare, it still could happen. They had received a number of people getting a shifter's bite before but it doesn't mean that they accepted all of the requests. Why should they sacrifice their blood for the unknown people?

But since the Kendall pack was their ally now, Isaiah did not mind helping them once more. Especially when it involved the Lycan prince's mate. And afterall, only their pack knew of the cure of the shifter's bite.

Isaiah nodded grimly. "Alright. When will they come?" he asked, his mind already thinking of the things he needed to prepare for the healing procedure.

Both Latham and Noaz looked at each other once again.

Latham turned back to Isaiah and said, "Probably as soon as possible since there's already signs of the aftereffects." When there's already signs of an aftereffect, of course they need to heal Remi immediately.

Isaiah nodded. He walked away from them and looked out the window of his office. "We'll prepare everything here first and wait for the boy to come," he said, not looking at them.

Latham and Noaz nodded. With words of gratitude, the two brothers left the room, leaving the Cairin Alpha in thought.

"Ivor…"
