Blake's POVWhile my exhilaration over the matter of Chloe’s pregnancy overwhelmed me, the desire to be with her became stronger than ever. Wearing my heart on my sleeves, I begged with all my heart for Chloe to return to me. That she and I would spend our days in the Silver pack while we await for our child to be born in this world.But in the end, I saw Chloe’s exhausted state. Her pale complexion doused my selfish begging to come back to reality and addressed the matter at hand. Like a strike of lightning, it dawned on me that Chloe had been through a lot just today. From her father’s death, to facing those greedy useless Alpha with confidence, then to containing Vanessa’s annoying tantrums. It might appear that Chloe is strong and confident, she was still exhausted and affected by the matters that happened. This was really a long day for her. Even more so, she was with our child… and was almost hurt earlier. All these things came back at me, slapping my selfish and thought
Chloe's POVThe air was filled with a sense of serenity as Blake and I found ourselves in a quiet place. It may have been coincidental, or maybe subconscious on my part, but I let Blake to the secluded part of the forest behind the pack house... the very place where we had our first meaningful conversation... that time we talked after he marked me. The forest seemed to breathe with life. Leaves rustled in the wind, whispering secrets that only nature could comprehend. The gentle swaying of branches created a mesmerizing dance, as if the trees themselves were in harmony with the rhythm of the earth. It looked so lively... very contrary to the emotions that I was feeling inside. I stood there, gazing at the horizon, the chilly wind blowing on my face. Deep inside, the memories of that time started flooding back to me. It was the first time I discovered about Vanessa and Alan's betrayal. Then, my father had forcibly switched our mates. That time, I was scared and confused. I was very
I gazed at the familiar road that led to the Silver Pack, my heart unsettled within me and I was feeling a lot of mixed emotions.After agreeing to return, Blake wasted no time arranging for our homecoming. Surprisingly, some members of the Red Moon Pack showed reluctance of letting me go. Vanessa, on the other hand, could not wait push me away. To ensure my comfort, Blake instructed everyone to give me space and rest. From the moment we left the Red Moon Pack, although everyone was respectful, no one has said a word to me. Walking beside me, Blake's presence was reassuring, but I couldn't help but notice the sorrow etched on his face. He was giving me the space and time I needed and does not talk with me, yet he glanced at me every few minutes. It was as if he was afraid I would vanish before his eyes. It was as if he was guarding me with unwavering devotion.A few hours has passed like this. Just then, someone approached us.“King Blake, I have something to report,” it was a beta w
I looked at the table in front of me, a wave of surprise washing over my face. It was adorned with my favorite foods, prepared with love and care. It was evident that everyone had worked hard to create this special feast for me. A warm feeling spread through my chest, but at the same time, my nose felt tingly and sour again, as if I were about to cry.As I glanced around the room, I noticed the servants whispering among themselves, their eyes darting in my direction before quickly hiding behind the door, their giggles echoing through the air. They seemed so excited, as if they were sharing some secret that I wasn't aware of. I couldn't help but wonder what was going on.Ever since the pack learned about my pregnancy, everything had changed. Suddenly, it felt like I was being watched over constantly. Every step I took, there were eyes on me, making sure I was safe. If I coughed once, someone would immediately appear with a glass of water for me to drink. If I mentioned feeling hot, wit
Blake's POVIt was yet another busy day for the pack as everyone was still busy preparing for Carrie’s coming of age ceremony.The bustle around was usually noisy and chaos to my ears, so I would always go inside the pack house and try to bury myself in silence while my heart was in pain of Chloe’s leaving.But at this moment, I did not have any plan to shut myself in the office to not care about what was happening around. No…I could not afford to miss the opportunity to be in this place and watch the most important person to me. Standing in the corner, my heart could not help but be filled with longing and warmth as I watched Chloe talking with the servants who were part of the preparation team f0r my younger sister’s birthday. Although it came as a surprise to Chloe that Carrie’s birthday is just around the corner, she could not let herself stay idle and went here in this place to see if she can help in the preparation. Watching from afar, I knew that the servants and the othe
Chole's POVUpon remembering Carrie’s birthday, I immediately moved to the venue to see if I could help in the preparations. At first I was really surprised that as soon as I went there and volunteered for work, the servants immediately rejected me and refused to let me participate in the preparation. Their attitude made me confused and guilty at the same time. Back then these servants would be happy to have me around helping with the chores no matter what event it is. However, when I left without a care… I could not help but think that their attitude at the moment would be the effect of my sudden actions earlier on. I looked around, feeling lost. No matter what, Carrie is an important person to me. She is one of my closest and most trusted friends and I cannot allow myself to just watch and do nothing for the most important day of her life. Just as I was about to move to another area to ask if I could help, the head servant approached me and asked me respectfully. “Miss Chloe,
Carrie squealed in delight the moment she heard my agreement of the matter. She then rushed forward and hugged me warmly much to my helplessness. “Hey, your hair and make-up will be ruined!” Knowing that there’s no stopping her from showing what she really feels, I could only remind her of her look at the moment. “O-Oh…” Carrie froze and suddenly touched her face cluelessly. Then her two bright eyes looked at me and asked worriedly, “Is it ruined?” I let out a chuckle, feeling that Carrie still felt like her little old self even though she would now be stepping as an adult member of the pack. “It still looks fine, but please pay attention… you don’t want to ruin your look right now aren’t you?” I teased. Carrie pouted her lips and lamented over the fact of how she was feeling uncomfortable about the way the servants dressed her, “If not for the fact that they really did a good job, I would have ran to the bathroom and erased all of these…” I let out a chuckle once more and held
Carrie‘s POVI could have never ever imagined that my coming of age would be this grand and lively. From childhood, I was always surrounded by the members of the pack. However, the way they treated me was that of a child and the little sister of the King. Right now… It was an entire new experience. Everyone is looking at me with eyes that see that I am really an adult, their equal in terms of maturity and outlook. I felt like I was floating and the nervousness in me became the subtle shadow of my excitement. Soon, I was feeling exhausted meeting the people’s smiles and thanking them for their well wishes. Deciding that it was already my limit, my eyes darted across the place. There I saw Chloe, she was sitting on a table with a peaceful look while she was enjoying the food she had on the table. Finding a good excuse, I quickly headed over to Chloe's side and carried the drink I had in hand. The moment I sat beside her, fatigue swept over me. I realized that no matter how outgoi
