Mark gently guided Molly into her room, her body weakened and her mind still filled with the aftermath of the intense duel. As they entered, Jacob stood there, waiting for Molly to come. A sense of apprehension enveloped her, expecting to be scolded for her reckless actions. However, an unusual calmness filled the air, and Molly couldn't help but wonder what awaited her.
Jacob's demeanor was composed as he motioned for Molly to lay on her bed. Understanding his intention, Molly obliged, her anxiety intensifying. As Jacob began to heal her injuries, the silence between them lingered, causing Molly's nerves to fray.
In a soft voice, Jacob broke the silence, recounting the events that transpired during Molly's absence. He spoke of Kira's temporary incapacitation when Alistair first appeared and how Aurora, stepping up, took charge of their pack with remarkable capability. The betas of Aurora's pack respected her as much as they respected their alpha, a testament to her leadership potential.
When Kira regained consciousness, she received a concise explanation of the situation from Aurora. Kira's unwavering trust in her ally led her to accept and support Aurora's decisions. It was then that Kira called upon Jacob to meet her, and in that meeting, Kira expressed her gratitude for forming the alliance between their packs.
Jacob revealed that during their battle, he had unknowingly broken two of Kira's ribs and inflicted a severe injury to one of her eyes. Yet, Kira brushed off her own wounds, expressing her appreciation for the alliance and asking Jacob to lead it. The honor bestowed upon him deeply touched Jacob, and it was a responsibility he was eager to undertake.
As Jacob's words washed over Kira, understanding dawned upon her. She realized her mistake in underestimating Jacob's unique ability. In her confusion, she had wondered why he relied solely on his raw power rather than utilizing his special gift. However, now she comprehended the true nature of his ability.
With a gentle touch, Jacob used his unique ability to heal Kira's injured eye and mend her broken ribs. The sight of her injuries disappearing left Kira astounded. She marveled at the power hidden within Jacob, the power of healing. Molly's respect and admiration for him grew exponentially in that moment, understanding the depths of his capabilities.
Before leaving, Jacob urged Molly to rest and regain her strength. He assured her that once he had fully healed Aurora, she should approach her and resolve their misunderstandings. He emphasized the importance of expressing gratitude to Mark for intervening, as Molly's unchecked rage could have resulted in Aurora's demise.
With those parting words, Jacob left the room, leaving Molly and Mark behind. The weight of her actions and the significance of healing bonds weighed heavily on Molly's mind. She realized that now, more than ever, it was crucial to confront Aurora and bridge the divide between them.
Molly turned to Mark, grateful for his presence and the role he played in averting a tragedy. With a mix of determination and humility, Molly expressed her gratitude, acknowledging that Mark's intervention had prevented a grave mistake.
