Dominic’s Point of View
I sat there in my wheelchair looking closely at Prince Wally. He was staring down at my blanketed leg with a very serious and worried expression on his face. When he asked me if the Divine Doctor said he could cure my leg, I instantly realised that the reason Prince Wally was asking all of these questions was because of his brother legs… Prince Riven’s leg.
This is because Prince Riven also broke his leg on the battlefield half a year before I fell off my horse, and the doctors in the palace kept saying that Riven’s leg was completely broken and there was no way to fix it. Riven was the legendary eldest prince, a fierce warrior, but now he was stuck walking with a limp, unable to lead his men or run properly.
It was tearing Wally apart to watch his big brother suffer like that every single day. But I know exactly what he was asking. He was looking at me, hoping that a miracle could happen to Ruben’s legs. But he have no idea that the answer to his prayers was standing right next to my me.
I slightly looked at Ivy next to me, checking her reaction. She didn’t blink, her face a perfect mask of innocence, but I knew what we had to do. We needed strong allies now more than ever, especially with the Bloodmoon Pack and the traitors inside our house trying to cut off our pack’s lineage. If we could heal the royal family’s eldest prince, our position would be completely unshakable.
“Listen, Wally. I will personally ask the Divine Doctor to look at Riven’s leg. Let me get fully recovered first.”
Wally’s face instantly lit up, and he looked like a huge weight had just been lifted off his shoulders.
Riven froze, staring at me in shock. “Are you serious, Dominic?” he asked, his voice sounding excited as he looked down at his own ruined leg. “The palace doctors said I would never be able to run again.”
I nodded, smiling, and stealing gaze from Ivy.
“You would really do that for Riven? The palace doctors have completely given up on him. They said he would be a cripple for the rest of his life. Man, that means everything. My brother’s leg finally has a real chance to heal!” Wally said.
“I am completely serious, Wally,” I told him, giving him a nod. “The doctor who pulled me out of that dark sleep can do anything. Just give it some time. Once my leg is fully sorted out, I will personally make sure the doctor travels to the royal capital to look at Riven.”
“Man, you have no idea what this means to us. I came here to comfort you, and you end up giving me the best news of the year.” Riven said.
“Let’s not get our hopes high. We have to hear what the Divine Doctor have to say.” I let them know.
“Talking about the Divne Doctor.” Princess Aria said, our eyes landed on her. “The whole kingdom is trying to figure out who this person is. I found out that the Divine Doctor’s pharmacy is actually located in the Crescent Moon Pack territory. Ivy, that’s your pack, right?”
Ivy nodded her head quickly.
“Yes! I wanted to ask you, Ivy… since the doctor is originally from where you are from, have you ever investigated this Divine Doctor? Do you know who is running that shop?”
“Yes, The Divine Doctor is from my place.” Ivy said simply.
“The pharmacy appeared out of nowhere in your territory, Azure Leafs, and suddenly this mysterious healer is saving the old professor, curing the Dominic, and many more. Don’t you know anything about them? Surely someone in your pack has seen their face.” Princess Aria said.
Wow, Ivy had secretly healed lot of people I’m not aware of.
Bella nodded her head curiously. “Yes, Ivy, you lived there your whole life. Did your father, the Beta, ever find out who this person really is? The whole kingdom is trying to figure out their identity.”
I watched Ivy closely, wondering how she would handle the sudden pressure. But she was incredibly clever. The very doctor they were searching for was standing right in front of them, and the reason she knew so much was because she was running the entire operation under their noses. But instead of panicking, Ivy used the truth to build a perfect cover story.
“I actually know the property very well,” Ivy told them. “The shop building belongs to the inheritance my mother and father gave to me. When the Divine Doctor came to our pack looking for a discreet place to sell medicines, they rented the seat directly from me. Because I am their landlord, I have a private way to send messages to them. That is exactly why I was able to bypass all the crowds and invite the divine doctor to come here to help Dominic.”
Princess Aria’s mouth parted in surprise. “Oh my world, so you actually have a direct connection to the healer? No wonder the doctor came to the Silverside Pack so quickly!”
“She didn’t just rent the space to them,” I added with a proud smile, supporting her story completely so nobody would suspect she was the actual healer. “Ivy saw how brilliant the doctor’s remedies were right from the start. She used her own savings to help fund the pharmacy’s opening, so the Divine Doctor feels a great sense of gratitude toward her. That is why the doctor treats our family with so much favor.”
They all look at Ivy, then back at me. “Wow, Dominic! I thought she was just a quiet girl, but she has a brilliant business mind! You really hit the jackpot. You found a wife who can secure miracles and manage funds at the same time.”
Hearing him call her my wife made my chest swell with a strange, fierce warmth. I looked over at Ivy, and her cheeks were a beautiful shade of pink, her eyes looking down at the grass in shyness.

We all had dinner in the evening. We hadn’t eaten together for a long time, and the meal was full of laughter. The grand dining hall was filled with the bright voices of my friends. Princess Aria was helping the little princess Poline with her soup, while Samir and Luke were eagerly asking Prince Wally about the latest training tournaments at the royal capital.
It was a thing of joy.
