Replacement Bride for the Alpha of the North - Chapter 142

Chapter 142: BLACK MAGIC
All hell broke loose the moment Ava got her hand on Julia, she dragged her out of the study room and shredded her dress into pieces, until she was only in her undergarment and when Julia was about to shift, she shoved a Rottingbane leaf into her mouth.

She knew where Jason kept them, because recently he had been giving them to their son religiously, in order to prevent him from shifting into his beast.

And now, Julia couldn’t shift into her beast to save herself, neither she could fight against Ava’s wrath.

Meanwhile, Jason tried to calm his mate down, but there was no word that he could say to appease her anger. He put on his pants again and tried to make Ava stopped.

However, it was already too late, Ava had dragged Julia out of their house by pulling her hair, her dress had torn and it showed her skin, she was almost naked.

“You can’t do this! You humiliate the luna of the pack!” Jason tried to reason with Ava, but he was also taken aback with his mate’s strong reaction, Ava was always gentle and calm, therefore to see her outburst was something he didn’t expect.

“Humiliate the luna of the pack?! She humiliated herself!” Ava was still holding Julia’s hair. It was a good thing that she didn’t shift into her own beast and kill her right there and then, because that was what she wanted to do. “She didn’t mind to be naked in front of you, so I guess, she didn’t mind to be naked in front of everyone, right?!”

Ava’s intention was very clear. She was going to strip Julia naked in front of all the people.

“Jason! Jason!” Julia cried so hard, begging for Jason to help her, but it was too late, her cries and Ava’s screams had gathered people attention and now they were staring at them, wanting to see what was actually going on.

After all, Jason was the alpha of the pack.

Weighing the gravity of the situation, Jason did something that Julia didn’t expect at all.

“He seduced me, she has seduced me!” Jason pointed his finger at Julia, who stared at him in disbelief, as all the accusation came out from his mouth.

Now Ava could see where their son got it from…

===============================

After a few days of the incident, Zaya finally came into Aurel’s room to visit the healer. She had been staying inside and refused to eat anything. She didn’t want to be bothered and was not willing to talk to anyone, aside from Lance.

Therefore, Lance felt this was his responsibility to look after her, to make sure she ate properly and changed the bandage on her hand.

“Zaya?” Aurel lifted her head when she realized it was Zaya, who entered her room. She had been waiting for her. Tears welled her eyes. “Why you just came to see me now?”

Zaya pulled a chair to sit next to the bed and look at her hand, it was still bandaged, the healer had checked on her, but there was nothing they could do to save her hand. She would lose it forever.

“Zaya, I am so scared… I am so scared… why did your brother do this to me? What have I done wrong?” Aurel cried, she hugged Zaya tightly, as she poured down all of her grievances.

Zaya didn’t say anything and only held her. She patted her back, but her expression didn’t change in the slightest, she looked indifferent.

She waited until she stopped crying.

“Zaya?” Aurel lifted her head, finally she noticed the lack of response from her. “Why didn’t you say anything?”

“You have been actively using black magic, didn’t you?”

This question came out of nowhere and Aurel was taken aback when she heard that. “What are you trying to say? What black magic? I am a healer…”

Zaya freed herself from her and now Aurel could see that she had been using her magic on her to check her out.

It was not easy to check someone whether they used black magic or not, but every magic left traces, therefore upon closer inspection when Aurel hugged her for long time, it was enough time for Zaya to check the truth.

“The treatment that you did to Zander and Zenith, you put some curse on them.” Zaya stood up. She straightened her back and looked down on her.

Because of what happened, the Holy Kingdom asked for Zander to punish Zenith because he had harmed one of their people.

The pressure was great, the Holy Kingdom’s representative threatened Zander that they wouldn’t let go of this matter until justice was served and Zenith got his hand cut off as well.

Of course, Zander wouldn’t do that, he kicked them off from the court and banned all the ships that came from Andel Continent to dock in their harbor.

The relation between two continents were already very shaky to begin with, therefore Zaya was there as a ‘guest’, while Aurel was here with the same role as her.

Based on that, it was a big deal when Aurel was harmed in the palace ground, even more by the royal family.

In that case, Zaya put all of her bet to confront Aurel, as she believed with Zenith’s suspicion about her.

“What are you talking about? I am just a healer, Zaya? What kind of accusation you are trying to pin on me?”

“Come with me to prove your innocent.” Currently, there was a heated argument in the throne room between Zander and five representatives from the Holy Kingdom. They were enraged by Zander’s decision to ban their people from coming here.

“Wh- what? What should I do to prove my innocent? I am sick, can’t you see?” Aurel started crying, but Zaya didn’t have time for that.

Zaya called Pyro, who had been waiting outside of the door to create a portal to bring them straight to the throne room.

However, Aurel retaliated…
