Chapter 147 A Cure and a Goodbye
Henry’s POV
I wanted to hold her tight, to silence her sharp tongue with a kiss that swallowed

But I couldn’t.
I shut my eyes and clenched my teeth, speaking with bitter resignation. “Don’t flatter yourself. How could an omega like you compare to a beta like Mariana? Just leave already.”
I forced myself to look disgusted.
“And if you stop bothering me from now on, I’ll have my father officially recognize you as his adopted daughter. Isn’t that what you always wanted? To become part of the Miguel family? Well, congratulations–dream come true. You’re welcome.”
With that, under Miguel family protection, no one would dare lay a finger on her.
And I’d make sure the next alpha I chose, after I was gone, would use everything at his disposal to protect her.
Aubrey’s POV
“He’s planning your future, Au…” Ella whispered in
my
mind.
“I know…” I answered her, my smile fading slowly.
I hadn’t expected this. Even on the brink of death, Alpha Henry had taken steps to ensure I’d be safe.
I’d only meant to tease him a little–to see if he’d finally tell the truth. But I never imagined he’d say something like that.
He still loved me. That much, I now knew for certain.
But I’d already let go of those feelings. Even though I was moved, my heart stayed still. It didn’t waver. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ ~net
All I felt now was a bittersweet regret.

Maybe we were never meant to be, no matter how strong the connection.
“Actually…” I stopped playing games and spoke plainly. “ Alpha, I already know you’re infected. You don’t need to keep pretending.”
“You know? Impossible! I gave strict orders–no one was allowed to tell you! ”
Alpha Henry’s eyes widened with shock and fury. “Was it my father?! Did he tell you?!”
“I figured it out myself. Then I confirmed it with him.”
“Then why the hell would you come here?! You need to leave! Now!”
He reached out, shoving me back with urgency. “This virus is extremely dangerous. You–an omega–are the most at risk!”
I didn’t budge.
“Alpha Henry, I can save you.”
“You’re being reckless!” His eyes blazed. “Do you even understand what you’re doing? This virus is a hundred times worse than T–Flu! If you get infected, you’ll die!”
“Of course I know what I’m doing!” I raised my voice, staring right into his eyes. “I cracked the T–Flu in record time. I can break this virus too. All you need to do is
trust me.” me.”
“No. It’s too dangerous. I won’t allow it.”
His face turned hard. “As your alpha, I order you to leave this room–now!”
I couldn’t help but laugh.
“Too late. I already convinced your father. I’m your designated wolf medic now. I’m officially in charge of your treatment.”
“For now, I can’t promise a full cure. But I can make sure you don’t infect anyone else.”
That made his eyes narrow slightly.
“I can also extend your life,” I continued. “Long enough for me to find a permanent

solution.”
“So work with me, Alpha.” I held out my hand to him.
But Alpha Henry didn’t take it.
“Aubrey… aren’t you afraid?” he asked softly, his expression complicated.
I smiled faintly. “Without you, I’d be in danger anyway. I have too many enemies and very few allies.”
“Alpha… or maybe I should start calling you bro from now on. Have a little faith in me. I’m a lot better than any other wolf medic you’ve ever had.”
