Adopted By The Werewolves のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

The next morning, Brent had to leave early. He has gone to meet someone, alerting them to the cause they are fighting for. Lilia, on the other hand, lays on the bed till much later. She has nothing very urgent to attend to, and her head has been feeling too heavy with all the emotions she has been trying to process. Finally, she gets off the bed thinking that she couldn’t lay there all day and some action might make her feel better.After brushing her teeth and freshening up, she looks around her room. It had been some time since she had done a thorough cleaning. It might make her feel in control of stuff. She eats some breakfast and then comes back up to her room to get to the cleaning.She dusts off the windows, vacuums the floor, and rearranges her books on the table. Then, she gets to the big Almirah, rearranging her clothes, keeping them in neater piles, and putting them on hangers. She empties the drawers and arranges her jewelry, pens, papers, diaries, photos, and documents pro

Lilia enters the house. Brent walks over to her immediately and kisses her.“How’s your day been?” he asks her.“Fine. Yours?”“It was pretty great. I didn’t expect much from the meeting, but it went quite well.”“That’s great,” Lilia says, feeling miserable with every passing second. Brent is in such a good mood. She doesn’t want to ruin it. But she will have to. She has no choice. Even if Esther had not walked in on her and Damion, she would have told Brent. She would not have been able to live with the guilt.Brent takes her hand. He is still talking about his day. Telling her about the vampires he had met. They start walking toward the stairs, and Lilia notices Esther looking at them. Lilia looks at her for a brief moment and then walks upstairs with Brent.Brent turns towards his room, but Lilia pulls him towards hers, so they go there. As they enter the room and close the door behind them, Brent comes closer to Lilia. He places a strand of hair falling onto her face behind her e

“I got you something,” says Esther and takes out a blood bag from a tiny bag she had put down beside her. “I figured you might enjoy some nourishment.”“I surely would, thanks,” says Brent, taking the blood bag from her and opening it to take a sip. “I am still amazed that you managed to find me.”Esther smiles at him and then looks up at the sky saying, “It really is a beautiful view.”“Yeah.”They sit there in silence for a few minutes and then Esther asks, “How are you feeling, Brent?”“I’m okay.”She looks at him but he doesn’t. He keeps looking straight ahead.“I don’t think so,” says Esther “but if you don’t want to tell me, I understand.”There is silence for a few seconds and then Brent says, “I can’t believe it, although to others it may seem an obvious thing to have happened. Two good-looking young people. Why not?”“No, it’s not obvious. I couldn’t believe it when I saw it either.”“You saw it?” Brent asks in a surprised tone.“I walked in on them.”“Do you think that’s why

Damion doesn’t say anything immediately. He is touched by the fact that Brent believes he would not have sabotaged his relationship with Lilia just for the sake of sexual drive. It is true, he wouldn’t have. But still, it felt good to see Brent acknowledging it even though he had hurt him.“That doesn’t make it right,” Damion says.“No, it doesn’t.”“I- I don’t know when or how it happened. I was there with her. We used to spend a lot of time together...”“I understand, it’s hard to get to know Lilia that well and not fall for her.”“I’m sorry.”“You cannot control your feelings. You can control your actions and you did, to a large extent.”Damion doesn’t say anything, he had controlled his actions for a long time, but he still wished he had not given in to his feelings yesterday. He wanted things to go forward with Lilia, but not like this.Brent gets up and walks over to Damion. He places his hand on Damion’s shoulder and says, “If Lilia has feelings for you too and you two decide t

Esther is sitting in the kitchen, browsing through her phone and munching on chips. She had seen Brent leave about fifteen minutes ago, but he hadn’t come back inside. She thinks that it must be an important call that he had been trying to make. She gets off the chair and throws the empty packet of chips in the dustbin. She didn’t feel like cooking at home and eating today. It had been a long time since she had gone out to eat. Maybe all four of them could go out and party. After the pathetic weekend that Brent had had, it would feel nice to him. Although, he didn’t seem like a party guy. But everyone has a wild side in the right circumstances, don’t they?She walks out of the kitchen and starts pacing in front of the stairs thinking about all the places they could go to. She would tell Brent when he comes back from the call and they can ask Ty and Ad to meet them at the club directly. But Brent doesn’t come back inside. It had been over half an hour and now it felt weird to Esther. I
