The Alpha's Forbidden Auction Mate chapter one hundred and twenty
Mira's POVI found the watchtower entirely by accident, climbing a narrow staircase near the pack house's northern wall while searching for somewhere quiet to think, and discovered Rowan already there, leaning against the stone railing, watching the last light fade from the horizon."I didn't know this existed," I said, stepping out onto the small platform."Not many people come up here," he said, glancing back at me with something warm settling into his expression. "It's usually just me, when I need somewhere quiet enough to actually think properly."I joined him at the railing, the view stretching out considerably farther than I expected, Blackwood's entire territory visible in the fading evening light, forests and fields and the distant, winding river we had once discussed during that first honest carriage ride together."It's beautiful," I said."It is." He was quiet for a moment, something thoughtful settling into his expression. "I've been thinking about our conversation. About

Mira's POVThe question stayed with me for days after I first voiced it, growing heavier each time someone new looked at me differently, each time a warrior offered unfamiliar deference or a household servant hesitated before addressing me directly, uncertain now whether formal titles applied.I found Rowan in his study one evening, the accumulated weight of the past week finally pressing hard enough that I needed to voice it properly rather than continuing to carry it silently."I hate this," I said, closing the door behind me.He looked up immediately, setting aside whatever report had been occupying his attention."The attention," he said, not a question."All of it. The bowing. The careful distance some people keep now, like they're not certain how to properly address me anymore. They whisper whenever I walk through the training grounds." I sat down heavily across from him. "I healed a village because they needed help. I didn't sign up to become some symbol everyone's suddenly dec

Rowan's POVI had never particularly cared what people said about me. Years of leadership had taught me that gossip circulated regardless of merit, that correcting every misconception cost more energy than simply allowing accurate action to eventually speak for itself.This particular rumor proved considerably harder to ignore, precisely because it did not concern me directly.It concerned Mira.I noticed the shift among the pack over the following days, subtle at first, then increasingly unmistakable. Some warriors began addressing her with a formal deference they had not previously extended, offering the same particular respect they reserved for established pack leadership. Others, I noticed with growing discomfort, treated her with something closer to careful distance, polite but noticeably withdrawn compared to the easy warmth she had cultivated with most of the household over these past months.I found Garrick, one of my more senior warriors, discussing the matter quietly with an

Mira's POVSomething felt different the moment our carriage crossed back into Blackwood territory.I noticed it first in the way people paused along the road, watching our approach with an attention that carried considerably more weight than simple curiosity about our return. A farmer near the boundary marker straightened as we passed, offering a bow so formal it startled me. Two children playing near the roadside stopped their game entirely, staring with wide, reverent eyes."Rowan," I said quietly. "Why is everyone looking at us like that?"He glanced out the window, something careful settling into his expression that immediately made me suspicious."I don't know what you mean.""You absolutely know what I mean."He did not answer immediately, and the silence stretched long enough that my suspicion sharpened considerably by the time we finally reached the pack house's main courtyard.The scene waiting for us there confirmed exactly how justified that suspicion had been.A considerab

Rowan's POVI left Mira sleeping and returned to the main hall shortly after dawn, understanding the village still required considerable attention regardless of how badly I wanted to remain beside her.Wren met me near the entrance, exhaustion still evident in her own posture, though something considerably more hopeful had settled into her expression overnight."No new cases since midnight," she reported. "And every patient your companion treated has stayed stable. I've never seen anything like what she did last night.""How many total?""Eighteen, before she collapsed." Wren shook her head slowly, genuine wonder mixing with obvious professional curiosity. "I've practiced healing for thirty years. I've never witnessed anything close to what she managed in a single night."I nodded, understanding the weight of that assessment even as concern for Mira's continued recovery lingered heavy in my chest.The practical work of the following hours kept me steadily occupied. Organizing supplies

Mira's POVI lost track of how many hands I held that night, how many fevers I felt cool beneath my palms, how many parents wept with relief as their children's breathing steadied under my touch.The work consumed me completely, the way it always did once I began, each patient pulling my attention entirely away from anything beyond the immediate task of easing their suffering. I moved from cot to cot, Maren directing me toward whoever needed help most urgently, and somewhere around midnight I noticed, distantly, that my hands had begun trembling slightly between patients.I ignored it. There were still too many people waiting.By the time I reached the far end of the hall, exhaustion had settled deep into my bones in a way I had never properly experienced before, not even during the accelerated bond's most demanding early weeks. Every healing drew something out of me now, a cost I had not fully appreciated until tonight, when the sheer volume of affected villagers had pushed my abilit
