Chapter 747 Poison

"Amon?!"

Bella was worried. Despite her best attempts, Amon wasn't responding. Sure, he was asleep, but he was hot to the touch… and he didn't even wake despite…

"Poison…" she muttered, her gaze turning to the king she just tied up. "You poisoned him!"

Her gaze was burning as she stared at the young man, and she wanted nothing more than to snap his neck at that moment. But what first came to mind was looking for an antidote as she quickly looked for it in his person. However, there was nothing, and she could only grunt as she abruptly pushed Moler's body down on the ground.

Shaking her head, Bella tried to calm herself down as she looked at Osman and scanned his body. She closed her eyes as she tried to reach her brother through their sibling bond, but there was nothing on the other side, which meant that Bartos was currently too far away from her for their mind link to work.

Werewolves' mind link, aside from the Matebond link, didn't work as well as vampires did whenever they communicated telepathically. They needed enough distance from each other for it to work.

[You have to act now. Just recall what you've learned from Master Kasper. Didn't he teach you some spells on how to expel poison?] Poona reminded her. [Or you can just feed him your blood. That always works wonders on poison.]

Without hesitation, Bella searched Osman's body for any wound where the poison could've entered his body. Sure enough, she found a small one on his ear where the arrow had grazed it.

"This bastard!" she cursed at the young king not far from their area. He poisoned his arrowhead! Imagine if that arrow hit Amon's vital parts?! "How could you be this careless?" she scolded Amon as she wounded herself.

There was no other choice. She would just have to try feeding him her own blood first before trying out the spells afterwards. For some reason, she trusted the first method doing better rather than the healing spells… Then again, that was because Master Kasper would always scold her for making a lot of errors while she was learning them.

Back to the matter at hand, Bella sucked in some of her own blood from her wound before leaning and pressing her lips against, Amon's, pushing in her blood from her lips into his. He was unconscious, however, so she had to make sure she fed him enough of her blood for this to work. Sure, maybe he could heal himself, but she wasn't familiar with demons so she didn't know whether he could do it or not.

[This Moler knows Amon is a demon,] Poona reminded her. [He must've had a poison that can kill demons for sure.]

Bella cursed under her breath. She refused to let him die on her again like this.

After feeding him a certain amount of her blood, Bella heard Moler grunt from behind her. He was regaining consciousness, and yet all she wanted was to knock him back down again. However, she didn't. Instead, she grabbed the young king by his neck and shook him.

"What poison did you give him?!"

Moler blinked as if trying to get back his bearings. He then turned to Amon and muttered, "Why not just kill me?!"

"He's different from Devon. He won't kill you, and based on his personality… He might even let you go later," Bella hissed. "Now tell me… what poison did you use?!"

Moler whispered, "It's a poison that will kill a demon…"

"And what is the antidote?"

"I… don't know if there even is an antidote…" the king murmured with a gulp, his body trembling. "I didn't ask since I intended to kill him."

Bella narrowed her eyes. "Look at you getting all nervous. Is this your first attempt at killing?!" she scoffed. "You better pray that he gets better because I'm not like him. I'll tear you to pieces if something ever happens to him!"

Her grip trembled as she scolded the king. "How… How could you exact revenge on the wrong man? Amon… You don't know what he has experienced before he took that throne. All his life… he's been in hiding because Devon wanted to wipe him of this world, and you… You fool!" she screamed. "Can't you see how good he is and all of the good changes he's bringing to Helion?!"

Bella couldn't help herself. She knew shouting out all these words was nonsense since Amon was already poisoned, but it was still cathartic to do so.

"I… I'm sorry. It's just that, I can't… We've suffered so much that all I can think of is killing off all the demons in this world starting with Devon's remaining lineage…" Moler weakly whispered.

Narrowing her eyes, Bella let go of his neck in favor of turning to check on Amon instead.

[Do you think it's working?]

Bella heard what Poona asking, but Amon currently looked so pale that he almost looked like he was about to die.

"The poison will take a day or two to kill him, but it will torment him during that period. It's the only way to kill a demon as powerful as him," Moler weakly explained. "We still have time, however. There's a powerful healer mage in the kingdom of Cordon that's currently in attendance at the event. I saw her hanging around you too. She can probably save him.…"

Bella glared at him. "I don't trust you at all!" she hissed. "I'm going, and I'll leave you here on your own to wait for your arrest!"

Grinding her teeth, Bella chanted a spell around Moler so that he wouldn't be able to escape. She then shifted into her wolfwoman form and carried Amon on her back. It would be much faster if she would do it in her wolf form, but Amon was unconscious and she wouldn't be able to secure him on her back.

[Let's do this as fast as we can, Poona. Let's save him no matter what…]

Pumping her legs, Bella ran as quickly as she could despite the storm ahead. She used her sense of smell and her recollection of their path to try and find their way back. A while ago, she didn't propose this to Amon while he busied himself to find them shelter because she wanted to stay long with him. That was not until she found out that he was poisoned.

"Damn that kid!" she cursed Moler under her breath.

A beat of running passed, and relief washed over her when she finally got a hold of his brother through their sibling bond.

[Brother! Are you there?!]

[What happened?]

[Please ready Sis,] she quickly informed him. [I'll be there soon. We got ambushed, and Amon was poisoned.]

Bella didn't even bother replying as she turned her attention back to Amon. "I won't let you die… We're almost there, Amon," she hummed as she ran as fast as she could back to the camp.
