With Alan requesting rather carefully, I dazedly followed him out. We expertly moved in such a way that no one in the pack would notice, not even Vanessa’s secret warriors stationed randomly across the pack territory. ‘It seems like Alan really was the best sentry of the Red Moon Pack…’ I could not help but be amazed by his ways. As we went further and further, my heart started to have a guess about who would be the person we would meet. But because we were already at this point, it would become more complicated for me if I caused a commotion at this moment and refused to continue. For the sake of not having Vanessa know that I am with her mate and strongest sentry, I looked ahead and clenched my fist. Ahead was a hotel situated a few kilometers outside the Red Moon Pack which is in a small human town. My heart kept pounding as I stared straight ahead. I know who was waiting for me there.“We are here… Chloe…” Alan took a deep breath and looked at me reluctantly. There was a hi
Blake's POVIt was as if someone had plunged a dagger into my chest and twisted it mercilessly, leaving me breathless and aching. No… it was like someone took a knife and plunged it in my chest a thousand, no, a million times. I looked at the closed door and my shoulders started to shake. As I watched Chloe… my beloved mate, walked away from me, my heart shattered into a million pieces. At that moment, I suddenly experienced pain that was indescribable. My heart that has been mercilessly shattered into a million tiny pieces created many and each fragment was gouging my insides. The agony is unrelenting, an incessant throb that seems to be endless.I thought that I had experienced pain… a heartbreak before. But as I stood there, looking at the door that Chloe closer, I felt something that was beyond anything I ever imagined… Still, my mouth remained mum and my body motionless. I did not have the courage to go after Chloe and stop her from leaving.Chloe… she is my mate, my world, m
I stormed back to my room, my heart pounding with anger and frustration. Tears streamed down my face as I collapsed onto my bed, burying my face in my pillow."Blake…" I whispered his name while my heart was pounding hard in my chest. After a long time, I finally saw his face. When I saw him, my heart instantly shook. He looked different. He was thinner and paler, and in his eyes were the shadow of pain that could not be described. He looked so hurt.I bit my lips and my shoulders shook.I could not believe it. I lied to him. I lied to Blake. The man who had once been my everything. My mate who showed me love and home meant..I could not hold back the tears. They flowed freely down my face as I clutched my chest. It hurt so much, seeing him like that. So broken and hurt. And I was the one responsible.I did not want to hurt him. I never did. But I had no choice. I had to leave Blake and make me accept our situation. Even if it meant lying to the man I loved.I curled up into a bal
I looked at Vanessa and replied sternly, “As the Alpha, can you just put away your waywardness? Otherwise you will ruin the entire red moon pack!“And what makes you think that you could lecture me, the Alpha like that, huh? Chloe!” Vanessa retorted back, refusing to be outdone. “I, as the Alpha, had the final say on what would be happening to the pack!” She raised her head and stood up looking toward me so proudly. “Heh… Now you are openly and proudly declaring such a thing when you did a poor job in solving the border crisis and the rest of the pack’s business dealings?” I knew that if I didn't say my piece, Vanessa would not stop at anything. I looked at her and listed all her shortcomings as she stood there unable to understand why I am saying these things to her out loud. “For several times, you have already put the entire pack in danger because of your carelessness. If not for Father holding the fort and your sentry cleaning up your mess, the pack should have been long gone
“You! How could you converse with the Alpha in such a way!” Vanessa looked at the three of us and could not believe what was happening. She looked at Alpha Anon who did not appear to be intimidated but was actually also thinking about the decision.Even so none of us bothered to accommodate her actions. Father, Alpha Anon and I were all busy thinking about how we can go about the conversation. Back in the Silver pack, I used to hear some stuff that could only be heart at the level of the Alpha. Blake never minded that I would hear their conversations whenever I visited his office back then and so I have heard a good few things about the South Dew Pack. Just like our Red Moon Pack, the South Dew Pack led by Alpha Anon was an established pack that specialized in agility. If the Red Moon Pack is an expert on poison, they are known to be the top in agility. Although they were not like the Silver Pack who is undoubtedly the strongest and mysterious, the other packs rather want to have
After the conversation, I took Father to his room to check his condition. Lisa and Vanessa were also there, unwilling to leave their father in that state. I sighed in my heart as I saw their reactions. It really seems that their concern and affection toward their father was real. The only bitter thing was that, in the family they have in their minds, I was not considered a member.While I dutifully checked my father's condition and tucked him in his bed, no one in the room said anything. After ensuring that my father's condition stabilized, I quietly excused myself in the room and headed toward my own room to retire for the tiring day. “You must be gloating right now, are you Chloe?” Vanessa’s voice rang on my back as soon as I left the floor where my father is staying. “What makes you think that I am like that?” The long day and the dread about my father’s deteriorating condition is already giving me a headache, but Vanessa still wanted to test my limits with her hostile attit
“Father…” As I went as fast as I could, I met my father’s pale face and came to his side. My heart sank, seeing his condition but I still flashed a calm smile. “Chloe… seeing you these days… it reminds me a lot of your mother.” Father looked at me with a nostalgic expression as his eyes seemed to have been reliving something in his memory. “Mother… what did she look like back then?” I held my father’s hand and asked a question that had always been in my mind. I have no memory of my mother and there’s no one in the pack that could even tell me what she was like when she was alive. Perhaps, it would only be Father who could tell me those things, so I asked it without thinking much. “Your mother… back then she had the same disposition as you right now. She is always calm and collected. She is courageous but also knows restraint.” “Although she is feisty on the inside, her knowledge is vast and deep. She also helps whenever she could, that made her a very fine luna back then… with h
Blake's POVMy head is buzzing as I rush back to the pack while Chloe’s words ring on my mind repeatedly. Part of me felt guilty and remorseful for letting her feel that way toward our pack.Perhaps, I have been blinded by the fact that none of those hypocrites in the Red Moon Pack would hurt her, that is why it never crossed my mind that she would also suffer great pressure to become the Luna everyone wanted.Another part of me, however, wants to ignore her feelings and drag her back to the pack. I want to no longer think about anything and focus on getting her to my side. This part of me scares me the most, but I also could not deny that it is what I truly wanted. The mess inside of me continued until I found myself already arriving in front of the Silver Pack. “Big brother!” Carrie rushed toward me in a warm embrace but she immediately let go while she was behind me. “Big Brother, did you find Chloe? Why is she not back? Everyone in the pack misses her so much…” Carrie blinked
