บททั้งหมดของ REBIRTH: She Is Back To Reclaim What's Hers : บทที่ 51 - บทที่ 60

Nilah's Pov. One more week had passed since everything happened. It felt like things moved along in a very blurry way. I never saw that blue eyed stranger throughout the time I was bedridden here. Asher also came occasionally to visit me so the only people I saw everyday were only the healers. Now I sat upright on the bed, the faint scent of herbs lingering in the air as the healers moved around me with practiced ease, their hands gentle but thorough as they checked the last of my wounds, their expressions far more relaxed than they had been when I first woke up. “The silver has completely been pushed out of your system,” one of them said, her voice calm and reassuring as she stepped back slightly, giving me space while still watching carefully, "Thankfully, your body responded well, better than we expected, but your wolf is still weak and needs time before it can surface properly again.” I nodded slowly, absorbing her words as I flexed my fingers slightly, feeling the stre

Nilah's Pov A sharp intake of breath echoed from somewhere in the room at my words, the insult landing exactly where I intended as several council members stiffened, their expressions twisting with outrage while one of them leaned forward as if ready to lash out immediately. “How dare you…” he began, his voice rising, but I cut him off before he could build any momentum, my patience already worn thin by their arrogance. “I am not Asher’s lover,” I said firmly, my tone leaving no room for interpretation as my gaze swept across them all, “And I am certainly not interested in him in that way, so whatever assumptions you have created in your heads, you can put them to rest now.” That earned me a pause, brief but noticeable, though the hostility did not fade. “If you don’t trust me,” I continued, my voice calmer now but no less resolute, “That is something I can accept, after all, I’m a stranger to you, and distrust is expected, but what you will not do is insult me or drag Asher’s nam

Nilah's Pov Asher’s grip on me tightened slightly as he steadied my weight against him, his hand firm at my back while his other arm supported me, and when I tilted my head just enough to glance at him, I caught the flash of worry that crossed his face before he quickly masked it behind his usual composure. “Are you okay?” He asked, his voice lower now, it was edged with concern as his gaze swept over me, taking in the colour of my face and the faint tremble that still ran through my body, “Why would you release your power in this state when you haven’t even fully recovered? You're not even at half your strength yet!” I let out a slow breath, my chest still rising unevenly as I tried to steady myself, the lingering strain from forcing my wolf out too soon pressing heavily against me, but even then, my eyes remained fixed on the council members in front of me. “I couldn’t keep listening to them,” I replied quietly, though there was still an underlying firmness in my tone, “And e

Nilah's Pov The atmosphere that followed Asher’s words was no longer filled with disbelief. Rather, it was heavy with thought, unease and the slow and uncomfortable realization that something far more sinister than a simple misunderstanding had taken place. I could tell that they were still struggling to believe all what we've been saying and they were also talking amongst themselves, figuring it out. But we were winning, it was only a matter of time before they all let us go. A faint, rhythmic sound of a wooden staff hitting the floor echoed through the room. It was slow and deliberate, each tap carried the kind of authority that made everyone stop speaking as every head turned toward its source. A woman stepped forward from the far end of the room, her movements measured, her presence commanding in a way that did not rely on strength or force but something far older, and deeply rooted in respect, and as I watched her approach, I realized just how old she truly was. Her frai

Nilah's Pov. I didn’t respond to that. Instead, I just let my eyes close for a brief moment before opening them again, meeting his gaze one last time before sleep took me. “Asher,” I called softly.“Yes?”“Don’t push them too hard because of me.”His expression shifted, something unreadable flickering in his eyes. “They disrespected you,” he said, his tone low. “That alone is enough reason…”“And you stood up for me,” I interrupted gently. “That’s enough.”He fell silent again.“I don’t need you to fight everyone for me,” I added, my voice quieter now, edged with exhaustion but steady all the same. “At least not yet. Wait until I fully become the Alpha and then, we can run wild. That's okay, isn't it?”For a moment, it looked like he wanted to argue. But then he sighed and it was a long, resigned sigh.“Fine,” he said at last. “But that doesn’t mean I’ll stay quiet if they cross the line again.”A faint smile tugged at my lips. “I wouldn’t expect you to.”He studied me for another s
