Third Person’s POV
Adelaide quickly apologized, “It’s my mistake. Go in and rest. I was just in a rush to get Lynette in to see Marsh.”
Paisley, unable to scold her further, urgently asked, “How is he? Is he alright? Huh, I’d love to see their reunion, but I can’t–Marsh is injured, and I’m sick.”
“He’s not in good shape, but I believe Doctor Digby can treat him. Let me help you lie down. Sleep will make you feel better.”
Adelaide said and called to Lance, “Ask Harlan to come here–we have a patient.”
Paisley was placed in an empty ward.
Exhausted, after Harlan checked on her and prescribed medicine, she fell into a deep sleep.
The journey had left her in low spirits.
Normally in robust health and rarely ill, she was frustrated to have fallen sick at a critical moment, feeling she had let down the Crimson Flame Pack.
After the medicine was ready, Adelaide woke her to take it.
Paisley drank it quickly, then asked, “How is Marsh?”
“I asked Doctor Digby–he said Marsh is improving, especially since Lynette arrived,” Adelaide replied.
Paisley breathed a sigh of relief. “Good. I’ll sleep now.”
“There’s more good news if you want to hear it” Adelaide said, supporting her head to keep it from touching the pillow.
“What else?” Paisley asked groggily.
“Eugenius isn’t just Marsh–it’s eleven people. All of them were rescued and are now here at the medical station.”
Paisley’s groggy eyes widened. “Eleven?”
“Yes. Eugenius is their team’s name; their scout team has eleven members.”
Excited, Paisley sat up straight. “I want to see them and pay my respects…”
Dizzy from the sudden movement, she grabbed Adelaide’s hand for balance. “Maybe I’ll sleep first. not going anywhere.”

“Sleep,” Adelaide said with a smile.
Paisley closed her eyes as sleepiness washed over her like a tide, and she fell asleep almost instantly.

Lynette was truly strong. Since arriving, she took full responsibility for cleaning Marsh’s wounds, applying medicine, and administering his medication.
After one demonstration by Mason, Lynette remembered everything and performed each task more meticulously and carefully than anyone else.
Under her care and encouragement, Marsh’s condition visibly improved.
Paisley slept for over ten hours. After a quick freshen–up
she went to meet the heroes.
She learned everyone’s names and gave Eugene a few extra looks–she had always thought Eugenius was Eugene.
Several of them looked at Adelaide and Paisley with questions in their eyes but didn’t know how to ask.
Since Eugene’s mate had previously mated with someone else, they wondered if their own mates had done the same.
Finally, Derrick spoke up, “Luna Adelaide, is my mate married to someone else?”
Adelaide was taken aback–she truly didn’t know.
Before she could say “I don’t know,” Paisley interjected, “Your mate hasn’t remarried and is still in your pack. Oh, and yours too, your mate hasn’t remarried.”
Paisley knew some family details from Wendy’s investigations.
Derrick and another team member breathed a sigh of relief but their faces showed guilt and longing.
After a while, Josh asked, “What about my mate?”
He had mated only six months before deploying with the army.
Paisley, her voice tinged with regret, said, “She’s remarried.”
Josh couldn’t hide his disappointment but asked another question, “Is she well?”
Paisley shook her head and said, “I don’t know. I didn’t look into it specifically.”
Tears welled up in Josh’s eyes. “It’s my fault. I’ve
Martin also asked Paisley about his mate.
her.”
His father was a werewolf general under Alpha Bentley, and they had both gone to the Southern Border battlefield. His father had been killed in action first, and later Martin was captured.
Paisley didn’t have information on Martin’s situation,
as Wendy hadn’t investigated this family.
However, Adelaide knew something and explained, “Your mate fell seriously ill two years ago and was treated by Doctor Digby. As for your mother, after your father and you were both lost in battle, she became distraught and now has mental confusion. Mason has been treating her. You can ask Mason for details.”
Martin covered his face with his hands, too overwhelmed to speak.

Magnus didn’t ask any questions. He had learned from his brother that his fiancée had not honored their engagement, which gave him a measure of relief.
Others decided to return to the capital with the group first before heading back to their hometowns.
Griffin, being unmarried, inquired about the Watkins family. Upon learning from Paisley that all was well with them, he felt reassured.
Glancing at his cousin Eugene, who appeared downcast, Griffin went over to comfort him, “Gloria’s marriage to someone else is actually a blessing. We’ve let our families down; we can’t fault thern for moving on.”
