Chapter 42
Chapter 42
I stood at the window on the second floor, looking out at Carrie and Arthur who are talking not far away.
Beside me, Blake was dealing with things in the room.
In the end, Carrie listened to my suggestion and found Arthur to have a serious talk.
I was really dumbfounded the moment I saw Carrie and Arthur’s figures from the window.
‘Carrie is indeed fast… she really found Arthur and talked to him right away,’ I shook my head in
helplessness while I watched them from afar.
Although I could not hear what the two of them were talking about, I could clearly feel that Carrie was
nervous and overwhelmed.
In the beginning, Carrie still had a big expectant smile on her face as she conversed with Arthur.
Looking at their figures, one looked with pure love and affection, another with a gentle yet reserved
gaze, I still found that the scene between them was a beautiful picture.
Seeing them like that, I could not help but remember a hint of myself and Alan when we were together
at the beginning… back when we first discovered that we were mates.
But just like case with Alan and I, nothing lasts long when the other party was unwilling.
The next scene that I saw was Carrie lowering her head… as if being rejected by Arthur.
The dejection on her face wa apparent, so much that Carrie could not bear to look at Arthur eye to eye
anymore and just lowered her head.
Arthur on the other hand, looked at her, his hand stretching out in an attempt to comfort Carrie.
But in the end, his stiff hand stopped midair and finally let it go.
“Blake…Carrie seems to have been rejected by Arthur,” I muttered as I stared at the scene down below
with helplessness in my heart.
Hearing my words, Blake came over and looked out the window. At that moment, I subconsciously
looked at Blake, deeply worried.
“Blake…” I reached out my hand, feeling the helplessness and worry toward the people below.
Noticing my worry, Blake patted me on the back ever so gently while his low steady voice said, “Since
Carrie was rejected by Arthur, then it is what it is. After all, this is what she had to experience as she
grew up…”
The two of us looked at Carrie and Arthur out of the window together.
The next moment, Carrie seemed to notice our gazes and suddenly looked up.
To our surprise she put a smile on her face again, then shrugged, pretending that she was fine, and
then left.
But I could not miss that moment when Carrie left, she was wiping her tears.
Arthur stood there, staring at Carrie’s back, looking at a loss. He stood blankly for a while and when he
finally turned around, he saw Blake and I standing by the window.
Arthur’s reaction showed surprise and panic. He didn't know how to explain what just happened so he
just scratched his head and left.
In the end, there was only the two of us, watching at the scene without a word.
I looked at Blake and saw a trace of complexity in his eyes.
Carrie was his beloved sister and Arthur was also his most trusted friend.
For a moment, I found it quite novel to see Blake put on a baffled expression and so I chucked and
teased, “Great King Blake, you didn't seem to have any idea on how to settle things for your sister?”
But Blake looked at me, returning to his relaxed expression and said, “Chloe, emotional matters cannot
be forced and everyone has the right to chose whom they love.”
Hearing this, I was very happy in my heart, but I still couldn't help saying “So our King is so
enlightened!”
After sometime, I bade goodbye to Blake, as I was worried that Carrie would be secretly sad.
Arriving at Carrie’s door, I gently pushed the door open and then called Carrie's name softly.
There I saw Carrie, sitting in a daze. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
I silently walked up to Carrie and patted her on the back to comfort her. She tried her best to smile
while saying,
“Chloe… I confessed to Arthur just now… unfortunately… he rejected me…”
“Arthur also said that I will find my mate when I become an adult and that kind of mate bond cannot be
broken.”
“Or else…it will be very painful. So, he hopes that I… can be with my true mate.”
As I heard Carrie say this, I could clearly hear the slight tremors in her voice, as if she was doing her
best to try not to cry.
Facing her heartbreaking condition, I did not know how to comfort Carrie at that moment.
However, Carrie immediately changed her state of mind. She took a deep breath and flashed a smile, a
painful smile.
“Chloe… do not worry about me! I am ok and in fact I am really grateful that Arthur told me the truth…
Perhaps, it is better to know things clearly now. With that, I feel relieved.”
I stared at Carrie’s expression and could not help but admire her. Carrie was clearly young, yet she
was showing such strength at the moment.
“If you say so… Then it is good. Do not you worry, with Blake around, he will still be your strongest
backing.” I muttered to her.
A few days after that, Silver pack was very peaceful, Carrie and Arthur got along more harmoniously,
Arthur was no longer avoiding Carrie, the two were acting like they were a pair of brother and sister.
However, I knew that Carrie was still thinking about Arthur deeply.
Remembering what as Blake said, emotional things cannot be forced. Perhaps this ending is good for
Carrie overall.
Coincidentally, the time for the full moon had finally arrived. Blake will finally take the antidote given by
my father tonight.
We waited until the middle of the night, staying by Blake’s side.
The moment the full moon shone brightly toward us; I administered the antidote to Blake.
Suddenly, Blake transformed into his wolf form, and my heart could not help but feel in awe.
His silky fur does not lose to the lusciousness of the night while his eyes glimmered like little bright
moons under the midnight sky. His wolf was majestic strong and powerful, truly fitting to be called the
Lycan King!
In a flash, Blake in his wolf form ran to the clearing, his speed was something that left me speechless.
However, as I watched him run, I suddenly felt an unpleasant feeling in my body.
“Hah…” In an instant, my chest heaved up and down, having great trouble breathing.
“B-blake…” In panic and desperation, I tried to call Blake, but my voice was too low for him to hear as
he was already in the woods.
As I struggled to prevent myself from collapsing on the ground, the pain in my body is getting more and
more uncomfortable. My vision is slowly darkening giving me a feeling that I am about to fall into a
deep abyss.
Finally, Blake came back and returned in his human form. He found me drenched in sweat and panic
covered his entire body.
He immediately took me in his arms as he asked in anxiousness, “Chloe… what’s wrong?”
Feeling his strong arms supporting my trembling body, I finally leaned on his side clenching my chest in
great pain,
“Blake… my wolf...”
