The Cursed Prince's Strange Bride-Chapter 313 MASS RELEASE (5)
Everything happened slowly.
Alicia couldn't even cry out when she saw it. Unable to contain her shock anymore, she passed out, but Alvin was fast enough to catch her before she could hit the ground.
The loudest cry came from Susan, who watched the scene before her in horror.
Only a second seemed to have passed, and even Harold's wolf seemed to be stunned, much less the rest of them.
It seemed like Ivan finally realized something was wrong because, obviously, something was wrong! As if he had just returned to his senses, he jumped away from Luciana and stepped back with blood all over his mouth and fur.
Luciana had a large part of her neck bitten out, and blood was gushing out of her mouth and the open wound on her arm, which was lying broken beside her. It seemed like her entire blood was draining out because she began to turn really pale and her eyes rolled back into her head as she fell to the floor with a loud thud and began to convulse.
Susan screamed in shock when she saw that, and her hands flew to cover her mouth while tears streamed down her face. f𝘳𝚎𝑒𝚠𝑒𝚋𝘯o𝘃eƖ.co𝓂
Ivan shifted back into his human form, ignoring the fact that he was completely naked and had blood all over him, even on his mouth and face, which was the least of anyone's problems. But one of the guards quickly took a robe from one of the fallen soldiers and wasn't sure how to approach Ivan, who was staring down at Luciana's body with disbelief and eyes gleaming with tears.
Harold's wolf was still hyper and wanted to pounce on Ivan, but this time, Harold took control over
it, not allowing that to happen.
He looked back at Alvin, who was holding onto Alicia's limp body, and Alvin could tell he wanted to shift back, so he made Harvey hold on to Alicia while Harold kept following every move with his eyes as he looked at her with sadness and guilt.
As soon as Harold shifted back, Alvin covered him with a long robe, and he went to Alicia, but he hesitated before taking her in his arms, while Harvey just stared at her before looking back at Harold.
By now, Ivan had fallen beside Luciana on the ground, and with shaking hands, he reached to hold her. It was definitely the first time for everyone as Ivan burst into tears, hugging her tightly.
"I'm sorry. I'm very sorry. Please... don't do this to me, my love. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry." Ivan said it repeatedly as he cried loudly, not sure how to help Luciana, who was still bleeding so hard and convulsing.
Someone finally draped the cloak over him, but he didn't even acknowledge them as he cried, demanding loudly for someone to do something.
Williams, who had rushed out of the inn when he heard Susan's scream earlier, quickly recovered from the shock of seeing Luciana in that state and went to the side of the inn to fetch some leaves, which he began to squeeze quickly in his hands as he hurried to where Luciana was.
But Ivan proved to be a big problem as he didn't want to let go of her.
"MOVE!" Harold ordered Ivan harshly from where he stood as he looked down at him with annoyance. f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦
If only he had listened and minded his business, none of this would have happened!
"DO YOU WANT HER TO DIE?" Williams yelled at Ivan angrily as he tried to shove him away. When Ivan was still not moving, Alvin took it upon himself. With the anger and hatred he felt for Ivan, he shoved him with his feet, controlling his rage to punch him. Ivan didn't even care. He just wanted to get back to her, but Williams was already holding her as he placed the leaves on her wounds and tore a large part of his shirt to use as a tourniquet.
"Stop crying and get more!" Williams looked up at Susan, who was still crying, and she looked a bit confused at first before she hurried to where Williams had gone to pick out some leaves, and not knowing how to help, Lance followed her to assist her.
They weren't sure which he was using, so they plucked almost all of it and dropped it on the floor beside Luciana before Susan impulsively ripped her shirt just like Williams had done, exposing a large part of her stomach.
Even though something bigger was happening, her action seemed to stun all the men there, but Susan was oblivious as she handed the ripped cloth to Williams to do with it whatever he wanted, while she knelt beside Luciana, begging her not to die.
Meanwhile, Ivan seemed to have returned to his senses, and even though he was still crying, he knew that saving her was for the best, and he watched with hope as Williams did his best to at least stop the blood from gushing out.
Harold was surprisingly feeling guilty about this, which came as a surprise to him. Because normally, he wouldn't have cared if something terrible had happened to anyone, especially someone dear to Ivan. But for the past few days, it seemed Luciana was a part of his family. She was also Alicia's friend and had taken a blood oath as his person.
Remembering something, he spoke to Alvin telepathically, and Alvin seemed to remember he had taken many kinds of medicines with them on this trip for Paulina and Alicia, as well as some other medicines, just in case.
So he took out one of the pouches he had on him and handed some medicines to Williams, which they had to feed Luciana.
Thankfully, Luciana had stopped convulsing and the blood flow had reduced, but she was unconscious now and her pulse was very weak.
"She needs to get treated by the royal physician. I don't think I can do much." Williams said helplessly.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CANNOT DO MORE? ISN'T YOUR FAMILY THE BEST AT MAKING MEDICINE IN THE KINGDOM?" Ivan bellowed angrily at him before his voice went softer as he pleaded with Williams to tell him she was going to be okay.
"We need to get her to the palace fast enough," Williams explained, trying not to be mad at Ivan, whom he blamed for everything.
