Chapter 120 Just a Little Closer
Aubrey’s POV
Damn it. This feeling of being completely played made me incredibly uncomfortable.
I opened my eyes, clearly irritated.

“Alpha, I only came here because I’ve seen similar cases before! I have the skills–why wouldn’t I come? I want to make a name for myself, to become an omega medical wolf respected by more people. Is that not allowed?”
“But you just admitted you’re my woman!” Alpha Henry ground out through clenched teeth.
“That was just me arguing. Trash talk, nothing more. Alpha, you didn’t actually take it seriously, did you?”
I answered calmly. Alpha Henry’s lips thinned into a tight line–he looked like I was about to piss him off to death right there on the spot.
I thought he’d storm off, furious, but instead, he suddenly lowered his head and bit my lips like he was venting his frustration.
I wanted to push him away at first, but his burning heat radiated through me, making me tremble. Ella was going absolutely feral in my head, rolling around like mad. That pull between fated mates drove her crazy- and I was getting swept up in it too…
“Aubrey…”
“Knowing you came here for me… I’m really, really happy!”
The words slipped out between kisses, just a faint whisper. You’d never catch it if you weren’t paying close attention. It was hard to believe that the cold, overbearing top alpha Henry could have such a soft moment,
And all the anxiety I’d been carrying seemed to melt away under the heat of his kiss. At this point, I had to admit–I might actually be catching feelings for Alpha Henry again.
It was pathetic. Am I really doomed to fall for him in every lifetime?
Just then, the door burst open with a loud bang.
“Alpha! Good news! There’s been a major breakthrough in fighting T flu!”
The moment I heard that, I snapped out of it. I shoved Alpha Henry–who was still on top of me–off and jumped out of bed
Tm on my way!”
Lignored beta Perry’s jaw hitting the floor as he realized I’d just climbed out of Alpha’s bed and strode out quickly
“Goddamn
Alpha Henry cursed behind me and quickly caught up
When we got to the lab, the senior medical wolves confuined the herbs I’d brought were indeed effective. They excitedly told Alpha Henry that their research on T flu had made a major leap forward!

Now, they were experimenting with combining other herbs to improve the formula. And just like that, I became the core of the entire medical team at the base, Alpha Henry could no longer talk about sending me away tomorrow–but why did he actually look kind of proud?
Third–Person POV
“It’s unbelievable. The herbs that omega girl brought really work: Are we getting old? None of us ever thought of it.”
During lunch, a senior wolf doctor in his fifties sighed. He felt like an old wave about to get left behind on the beach.
“She’s really talented. I spoke with her–her medical knowledge is deep, and she’s got a thorough grasp of herbal medicine and pharmacology. Some of the ideas she brought up were incredibly forward–thinking. She’s only eighteen. Even if she’s an omega, I’d honestly consider breaking the rules to take her as a student.”
Another bearded wolf doctor chimed in earnestly.
“If only I had a student like that… You have no idea. Because of pressure from above, I’ve had to accept people forced on me, but none of them are any good.”
Senior wolf doctor Fray was clearly the leader among them. When he spoke, the way he looked at Aubrey was full of enthusiasm.
And the girl they were talking about was quietly eating lunch at the table, scribbling notes as if she hadn’t heard a thing.
She was close–just one step away. She felt she was on the verge of recreating the detox formula for T flu from her memories. But what ingredient was missing?
“Eat first.”
Right then, under everyone’s gaze, Alpha Henry strode over and placed a bowl in front of Aubrey.
