Zenith didn't understand a single thing about poison, but he still made it a point to taste the concoction first. At the very least, if there was something wrong with it, he would be able to detect something.
"Do you want me to teach you a thing or two about poison?" Dawn was not serious about it, it was the knowledge she learned from Lyra in her spare time, since she didn't have a lot of friends to talk to.
However, Zenith was serious when he replied. "Yes, please do." He leaned over and kissed her forehead. "But before that, you need to get better first."
Zenith helped her to drink the medicine and she lay down on the bed again. They chatted for a while until her meal arrived and she ate it. Only then did Dawn fall asleep again.
Zenith didn't go anywhere, and his gamma became frustrated because there were several matters related to the affairs in the north that needed his alpha's attention.
