Chapter 163
Chloe The sun had already set and the moonlight shone its silver glow. In the clearing blows a gentle breeze that enveloped my body as | stood in wait.
It was a long day for the two of us as well as our pack members. Nevertheless, | did not even think for a second before agreeing to meet Blake once more.
Breathing slowly, | looked around and thought that Blake wasn’t here yet. But suddenly a pair of hands wrapped my body from behind pulling me gently.
Blake’s scent teased my nose as my entire back felt the warmth of his embrace. For a second, | thought that | could have a place to finally be at peace in those five years of chasing the revenge | wanted.
It is mysterious and befuddling to realize how easy it was for me to accept being this close to Blake after all this time. | did not expect to see myself feeling perfectly alright in his arms.
My heart was screaming that | belong to his side, such a magical thing. “Long day?” Blake’s voice was soft, yet it carried a lot of power that stirred giant waves in my emotion.
| once decided to leave his side, deemed the sound of his voice as something | would never want to hear. But here | am, leaning back in his body as he rested his chin on my shoulders.
“Hmm...” | could only let out a soft hum, as | tried to process how fast my body had surrendered in his presence.
| thought that even though we agreed to be together, | would still have problems with being this close to him. But to my surprise, it wasn't.
Like a dry desolate land that has not received rain for years, so is my heart opening with the shower of Blake’s warmth.
We stayed like that for a little while, our bodies just trying to get used to each other. Under the moonlight, while the surroundings were peaceful with the singing of the wind, we held each other.
After a little while, Blake led me to sit in the meadows, looking at me worriedly as he said, “We have a lot of work to do... but, the two of us also had a lot to talk about.”
With how close we were, | could see his eyes ridden with anxiousness. His hands pressed gently on mine, but the miniscule gestures he made were filled with the contrast of anxiousness and longing.
It was at that moment that | realized that just like me, Blake was also scared and yet excited. We were both longing for each other, but the rift that we made in the past had made us scared of hurting once more.
“Chloe, don’t try to figure out things impatiently. Sometimes, there’s no explanation as to why we feel strongly for someone even though we have been hurt so much... Just look at what’s in front of you at the moment.” Once again, | heard Aurora’s voice, encouraging me along the way.
There, we sat and talked while listening to each other’s stories from the past five years. | told him how | met Caleb, how | came back to the Red Moon Pack and took away the remaining members to hide away, and finally the moment Aurora first appeared.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Blake also told me what happened to the Silver Pack for the past five years. It was also through him that | found that Arthur and Carrie already had a child.
Achild... Throughout the conversation, whether it be a good one or the bad, Blake and | had something in common. We deliberately refused to talk about our child.
We could make a list of the things we did wrong to each other and justify why we chose to deliberately separate. But none of those things could beat the weight of having our unborn child die.
It was a painful shadow we both aren’t ready to confront. So much so that even though we were both silent, we understood each other’s intention about the matter.
Who knows, perhaps, someday we could finally face the grave of our unborn child with peace and calm. But that would be far ahead if we were not able to do the mission we have at the moment.
The Blood Hound Pack has brought a big threat to the peace we wanted to achieve with both of our packs.
“Blake... about Alpha Kain, | feel like what we have talked about earlier with the members was enough to beat him.” Exposing my fear of the matter | looked at Blake and asked.
“It's true that it would be difficult to defeat him... but that’s if we stayed apart from each other.” Blake replied with a gaze that is profound yet gentle.
Not really sure as to what he really meant | looked at him with a questioning gaze. What does it mean when he said something about being apart from each other.
Blake let out a sigh as he continued, “We'll | never planned to mention this to you back then beceus | doKe'! tgiputca inSssuire on you...But somehow the matter still managed to reach your ears and the thing that scared me the most at that time still happened.” Please read the original content at .
Then he smiled and looked at me, “But now, the situation is different. You have Aurora by your side now, and no one could ever use your lack of a wolf to hurt you again...”
“So what | meant is that, now that we chose to be together, our wolves will also be in close proximity...”
“Us being mates, us being together even at moments like this will m our powers argwy gxporisatiatly. Nforeavel, he were both of Alpha Rank, as such the effect of being in the presence of one's mate will be higher.” Please read the original content at .
When Blake explained this thing, | suddenly realized where he was coming from. His words reminded me of the past, of how | viewed myself as one who pulls Blake down because | have no wolf.
But now, | have Aurora... | can hold my head high and no longer regard the comments | received in the past. With us being with each other, we can help strengthen our powers more.
However, a question popped up in my mind as soon as | realized the implication of isfeat \thef fide. ASyarcasl how, Kain still does not have a mate around him... But what would happen if Kain also found his mate?” Please read the original content at .
