Finding Myself in The BeastWorld

91. Decision

Paige's Pov:

The waiting and silence in the house starts setting into my nerves. The somber feeling from everyone makes waiting incredibly difficult. I hold my beautiful baby girl.

Damian rubbed my back, watching Faith. Every struggling breath she takes, everyone seems to tense up. Make sure to keep wiping her down. The door burst open. And I see Harvey with black hair and a weird get-up. Azrael rushes into the house right to us.

"Lay her down." He says. I lay her on a fur, and I watch as he looks over her. He smells Faith. Examines her wound.

"One of you check the ceiling any chips in the wood remove it carefully not to get stung I think I know what it is." They nod. They start looking through everything. A half hour we watch.

"Found it!" Curtis hisses sliding down. He opens his hand, and we see a light brown small scorpion in his hand as he's holding it by the tail.

"How did that get in this area... no matter.. I'm going to get my box.." Azrael gets up going to his room. A few minutes later, he walks out with that big wooden box he had brought. He sets it down, looking at various markings.

"One of you get me sour fruit and this tree bark. I need a bunch of the bark." He hands them a piece of the bark. Curtis, Muir, Caspian, and Kaden are out the door fast. I watch as Azrael feeds Faith a liquid, pouring it in a cloth and letting her suck on it.

"Will she.." I get shaky.

"She will be just fine, Paige. The venom has hurt her body, but nothing a crystal can't fix. We need to cure the venom first. This was no accident. These scorpions don't live in this area. Someone deliberately did this." I sob out in anger and relief.

"Shuu, Damian, both of you look for more. They usually burrow in wood." Azrael says. They nod, looking inside and out.

"I have a powder that can kill them.. check room by room." Azrael hands it to Winston.

"After a room is checked, throw the powder on everything. We're not sleeping here tonight. We need to go to a temporary home." Azrael says as he rocks Faith. Her color is at least coming back.

"I'll arrange it. Don't worry." I nod at Lucien. He tiredly hugs me and kisses me and Faith on our heads. Walking out the door. I notice Harvey getting herbs together, setting up his area beside us.

"Harvey.. your.." I say.

"It was to hide who I am it will wash off.. I got poisoned, but Azrael saved me. I'm so sorry, Paige. If we knew we.." He starts to say with tears.

"No! You're here now. I'm glad you're both safe and saving Faith." I hug Harvey.

"She's going to be just fine. Also, I got a crystal from fighting. We will give this to our little bundle after she drinks that." I feel tension leave my body finally. I let out a shaky breath I had no idea I've been holding. I law down with Faith after she drinks that stuff. My hubby's one after the next come back. Harvey and Azrael break down the bark, adding lemon to make a paste. They place it on the wound. With a tobacco leaf. Weird.. Harvey gives Faith the crystal. I watch as she swallows the liquid. Finally, I feel a sense of relief.
I fall asleep holding my baby girl.

A few Hours Later~

I sit up, looking around groggily. There's a fire but not in a fireplace like home.

"We are in a cave home until Azreal is done with the house. We can't go back until we are sure those scorpions are all dead." Harvey tells me as he rubs my arms. He's right. If there's more scorpions, then we need to make sure their gone.

"Harvey, how's Faith?" I ask him.

"She's doing much better she already had the crystal." He points behind me where Damian is holding her. I smile. Thank God I can't lose her.

"Do you know who did this?" I ask now mad at this whole situation.

"We smelled a few males, so the others are looking for them. Also, we let Rosa and Holly know. They stopped by with furs and food. Their males are helping us too by searching." Damian tells me. I hope they catch whoever did this. How cruel. The fox cub is right at Damians feet healed up but watching Faith.

"How did?" I point to the Fox cub.

"Oh yeah, uh, we had an extra crystal Azreal gave him." Harvey smiles.

"Oh good. How awful to heal that leg with no pain killers." I hug my handsome hubby.

I start looking through some hide bags and find all kinds of food. Thank you to my amazing friends! Grabbing a big handful of fruits, I start eating some.
We hear a loud bird call. A few seconds later, Muir is walking in.

"Hunny!" I get up.

"Feather, we found the males. They.. well their Eudora's males. The Bear leader and Alec are going to do a trial of death." I nod this is their way.

"It's sad because a male will do anything to satisfy their mate. I bet they didn't really want to hurt anyone, but because of Eudora, they will die. What a selfish cunt." I squeeze the fur that's wrapped around me.

"True, but they chose that female knowing what she's like. I'm not saying it's all of the males' faults, but a lot of it is. Most of us males will try calming our female to not harm anyone. Sadly, they knew what she was like but still wanted to be with that thing." Muir tells me as he sits beside Mr he pulls me onto his lap. I lay back on him. I don't even want to go to that trial. I don't want to see their faces. I know Rosa will go screaming all kinds of shit. I just want our family to recover. I want my daughter to get better. And now I'm sure I want to leave to the Forbidden City with my whole family. I'll have to prepare Holly, Rosa, and Sandy so we can all pack to leave. Fuck these bitches. I can't take one more family member getting hurt. We should just go like Lucien wanted. He said it's safer, so I'll put my trust in him. Yes.. this is where we will go. My hubby's said they can make the same place. So fuck it we need to go.
