Fated For Lycan's Luna (Chloe and Blake) novel Chapter 61

“No…” I shook my head as calmly as possible so as to not let Blake suspect anything.

Blake has always been the one who knew me the most ever since I ran away from the pack. And so I knew that if I was unable to convince him, he would definitely know what was up.

“It is really that, I have really been feeling tired and out of sorts these days. I know that the detoxification process would be something that is highly risky. That is why I want to be on my best possible condition that night.” I answered without stuttering.

Luckily, I was able to come up with something convincing. I have practiced these words in my head a number of times so that I would not mess up saying it infront of him.

“Alright… Just remember not to worry too much. I will be there to help you so you do not have to be scared, okay?” Blake pulled me closer in his embrace and reminded me gently. “We will surely be able to detoxify your body and awaken Aurora by the next full moon night.”

When Blake said these words, I knew that he was finally convinced and that he no longer pushed for his own worries. Instead he diverted his attention towards assuring me about Aurora’s detoxification.

“En… Alright.” I answered, lowering my head to hid the worry and conflicting expression on my face.

We stayed like that for a while then Blake managed to convince me to take our dinner. While we are on the dinning hall, we happened to meet Lyra during the meal.

I froze upon seeing her ever-imposing figure but in the end I smiled and waved my hand, catching her attention.

“Lyra… come and join us.” I called her out, which is definitely in contrast with my usual avoidance toward her.

Lyra who was holding a tray of her food she froze in surprise but remained calm. Blake also looked at me in surprise, clearly confused about my sudden attitude.

But I remained with a smile and asked, “Since Lyra had come back to the pack, I have not yet shared a meal with her. So why not take this opportunity, right?”

Blake seemed to have realized it as well and so he nodded and invited Lyra as well.

The next moment, three of us were at the dinner table, sharing a meal in the midst of the dining hall.

As I ate, I looked at Lyra and Blake’s figures and smiled. Though bitterly sweet in my heart, but seeing their compatible countenance somehow made me feel at ease.

When I asked Blake earlier, I know that he would keep the truth from me until everything was over.

It breaks my heart to know that he would be willing to sacrifice in silence just for me to become at ease and alright.

At that thought, I felt aggrieved for my mate. Since we met, he was always the one who was giving and sacrificing something.

And even if I insist, just like the time I drew out my blood for him, he immedately refused because he knew that the process would hurt me.

But did he not know, that what he was doing right now was exactly what I did back then?

Did he know that now that I am in a position to choice to hurt him or not over my own condition, I would reject it just as he rejected my blood back then?

Did it ever come to his mind, that just as I was important to him, he was just as important to me as well?
