Blake’s POV
My face hardened as I listened to Lyra's words.
In her tone I knew that she was not exaggerating the situation on her end but then having to go to her for reinforcement would mean that I would have to leave Chloe behind
"How much longer can you hold on?" I asked, trying to gauge the situation and weigh my options.
There was a long pause on Lyra's side. I knew that my question was not an easy one, that is why I patiently waited.
The scent of blood started to thicken around me as more and more enemies breached the pack house.
"At most… I can hold on for an hour…" After some time, I heard Lyra's voice as she replied with difficulty.
My mood plummeted upon hearing the news.
I knew Lyra's ability and her undeniable might on the battlefield.
An alteration like this would seldom pose a great threat to her to the point that she would never have to ask for reinforcement even when she is in a battle for half a day.
Now, I am hearing from one of my most trusted and strongest warriors that she would barely hold on for an hour with her troops!
I cursed the perpetrators in my heart as I realized that the situation is far from what I have initially concluded.
Looking around, I could feel that Chloe is still safe inside. But the number of intruders approaching seemed to never end.
At this point, my mind is a mess as I hesitated.
It is not like the intruders in here were a threat to me, even more so that warriors stationed here are not enough to fend off the enemies.
But I could not bring myself to leave Chloe and my child behind.
Moreover… What if the moment I left her side, the main perpetrators would come and strike me from behind, targeting my mate?
In the end, I gritted my teeth and came to a decision.
I know that it is dangerous but I also know. Lyra and the others can make it through.
The Silver pack did not become such a glorious pack without the strength of each pack member.
The worst thing that may happen is that there might be some who might get injured.
As the King of the pack, this is a troubling decision to make as well. But at this moment, choosing to protect and prioritize Chloe and our child is the only right thing for me to do.
"Hold on for an hour, I'll ask Arthur to send reinforcement on your end…" I answered.
"…"
There was silence on the other side, Lyra seemingly trying to process what I had said.
"You won't come here? You are definitely needed here…" Lyra answered in a cold and testing tone as if she was trying to understand what was going on in my head.
