Chapter 51

VENUS's POV

After the witch finally left us alone. Derek briefly sighed before sitting down next to me. With a worried expression, he placed his hand above mine.

"How are you feeling?"

I frowned. I hate to admit it. But the witch's intentions, as she explained to Derek wasn't that bad for me. She told us that getting other data from other witches just risks my life. So in the end, we had no choice but to believe in her words for now.

"I'm fine. I told you I'm not that sick."

"It's not that I don't believe you. But it's just that something inside me is telling me that you're not." His jaw clenched. "I've decided you should rest here for the rest of the day."

"What? How about the summit?"

He shook his head, "Your health comes first. I'll just explain to them that you can't make it due to sickness."

I scoffed, "Who'd believe a werewolf getting sick? Why not just tell them I'm injured? Won't that be better?"
