“Alright.”Hearing Hudson’s warning, Lena finally stopped.At that moment, she felt an indescribable sense of embarrassment. In her mind, there was hardly any difference between what she had already done and simply taking everything off in the first place.If it was going to end up like this anyway, she thought it might have been easier if he had just asked her to undress from the start.What she didn’t know was that Hudson understood exactly how uncomfortable and embarrassed she felt. That was why he hadn’t asked her to remove her clothing outright. If it had been anyone else, he would have simply told them to undress and begun the treatment without hesitation.Thinking ahead to what was coming, Hudson spoke in a calm voice.“Lena, this is going to hurt quite a bit. Try your best to bear with it. And keep your voice down if you can.”He already knew how thin the walls of the house were. In a small farming community like this one, even the slightest unusual sound could quickly become

The sharp clang of metal echoed through the yard. Dr. Miller snapped out of his thoughts and froze when he saw his son swinging a hoe at Hudson."Conrad! What are you doing?" he shouted in alarm.For a moment, he felt like he was going to lose his mind.He couldn't understand how his son had jumped to conclusions without knowing what was happening and attacked Hudson without a second thought.Conrad rushed forward and finally realized what was really going on. Hudson wasn't hurting his father at all, he was treating him.The hoe slipped from his hands and hit the ground with a loud clatter.His face immediately turned pale."Sir... are you okay?" he asked nervously.Dr. Miller struggled to sit up and quickly looked toward the back of Hudson's head.The head was one of the most vulnerable parts of the human body. Hudson was already recovering from serious injuries. If something had gone wrong, the consequences could have been disastrous."I'm fine."Hudson didn't even look up. He conti

It might have been intended as a joke. If the remark had been directed at Hudson, he wouldn't have cared.But saying something like that in front of a child was different.Jayne was still young and innocent. Hearing adults make crude jokes about her mother wasn't something she should be exposed to.Hudson's expression immediately darkened.After speaking sharply, he shot the man a cold warning look.The man, Dante, was a well-known bachelor in Ironwood Creek. He spent most of his days idling around the village with nothing better to do.For years, he had secretly harbored feelings for Lena.What irritated him even more was that a young outsider had seemingly gotten close to her before he ever had the chance.This was his village. His territory. And yet some stranger was standing here threatening him?The more Dante thought about it, the angrier he became.He immediately stood up and pointed at Hudson."Hold it right there!"Hudson turned around calmly, his eyes indifferent as he looke

A woman's abdomen wasn't exactly a private area, yet it still felt intimate enough to make someone uncomfortable.When Hudson reached out and placed his hand on Lena's lower abdomen, even through her clothing, she immediately stiffened.Ever since her husband passed away, she had been extremely careful around men. Seeing Hudson touch her so directly, her first instinct was that he was taking advantage of her.Only then did Hudson realize how easily his actions could be misunderstood.He quickly pulled back and explained, "Sis, isn't your stomach hurting? I was planning to help ease the pain first before figuring out what's causing it."As he spoke, he quietly guided a stream of his energy into her body.Almost immediately, Lena felt a warm sensation spread from Hudson's palm through her abdomen.The pain that had been tormenting her moments earlier began fading at an astonishing rate.Only then did she realize she had misunderstood him.Embarrassment instantly flooded her face.Her pa

Hudson quickly grabbed the edge of a nearby table to steady himself. His vision darkened in waves, and the pain in his head intensified dramatically. It felt as though his skull were being split apart from the inside.He clenched his teeth and endured it.Several painful breaths later, the excruciating headache finally began to ease. The darkness clouding his vision gradually receded, allowing him to see clearly again.Leaning against the wall, Hudson carefully recalled everything that had happened during the battle with Crane.The more he thought about it, the more something felt wrong.When Crane unleashed his final attack and Hudson dodged at the last possible second, he vaguely remembered feeling an invisible force pierce directly into his head.At the time, his entire body had been suffering from severe injuries. Later, he had been too weak and exhausted to pay attention to anything else.Now, however, it became increasingly clear.The damage from Crane's final move hadn't been l

Before long, the entire village of Ironwood Creek, tucked deep in the mountains of Northern California, was in an uproar. News spread quickly that a body had been found in the creek just outside the village.Curious villagers rushed over one after another to see for themselves. As everyone gathered around the shallow water, discussing where the stranger might have come from, someone suddenly noticed movement.The figure lying in the creek twitched."Oh my God!""Did he just move?""Am I seeing things?""It moved! I swear it moved!"The crowd immediately erupted into alarm. Several people instinctively stepped backward. Others stared at the body with wide eyes. A burly villager known for his courage finally pushed his way through the crowd."Move aside."He crouched beside the unconscious man and reached down to check for signs of life.A few seconds later, his eyes lit up."He's breathing!" Excitement filled his voice."He's alive! He's not dead!"The tension instantly disappeared.Th
