Fated For Lycan's Luna (Chloe and Blake) novel Chapter 33

I came out of my father's room with a heavy feeling. Cold wind blew on my face, making me shiver. It was already late and the weather was rather chilly.

I looked around and saw that apart from me, no one else was outside, making the place cold and empty… " Like the feelings that I had in my heart," I softly muttered before I let out a bitter laugh.

Then, like a faucet that was twisted open, tears started to blur my eyes. Thinking of my father's words, I felt an overwhelming bitterness fill my heart.

After a short while, I heard footsteps approaching me. I hurriedly wiped away my tears and tried to calm down.

A few seconds later, Vanessa and Alan appeared and were walking towards my father's room. They were the people I least wanted to see, especially at that moment. Thus, I nodded at them politely before turning to leave, trying not to have any more contact with them.

"Wait!" Suddenly, I heard Vanessa say. I froze before an ominous feeling suddenly appeared in my heart.

"What's your name?" Vanessa asked me with a rather cold voice. Trying to act cool, I stared at her and did not say anything. Then, I shook my head and pretended to be dumb.

"Why aren't you talking? I heard you talk before..." Vanessa continued to question me. I lowered my head and my hands broke into cold sweat. Vanessa looked at me suspiciously.

"Somehow, you feel very familiar... Why don't you take off your mask so we could see your face?" She asked with narrowed eyes.

I stiffened and my hands shook slightly. 'Does she know something?' I thought nervously. I remained unmoved even though inside my chest, the feeling of panic started to emerge.

An impatient look appeared on Vanessa's face. Then, she suddenly moved.

Without my permission, she quickly approached me and stretched her hands... she clearly wanted to take off my mask!

I did not know what to do. My mind turned blank and my body froze on the spot. Thankfully, before she could touch my mask, Alan grabbed her hand. Vanessa looked at Alan with surprise.

"Stop it," Alan explained with a cold voice. "She is a distinguished guest from the Silver Pack. Their pack is known to seriously value their privacy. It will cause us serious trouble if her King finds out that you tried to take off her mask," Alan added.

Vanessa, who was told off, pouted. Alan narrowed his eyes at her before saying, "Let's go. We need to visit the alpha as soon as possible."

Vanessa's brows furrowed. But finally, she decided to give up. Without waiting for another second, Alan grabbed Vanessa's hand and pulled her away.

I let out a sigh of relief as I watched them leave. Surprisingly, after a couple of steps later, Alan suddenly looked back at me with unfathomable eyes.

But I didn't have the strength to think anymore.

I returned to my room, feeling exhausted. Inside, Blake was waiting for me. He watched me as I entered and remained silent. I did not say anything, but Blake seemed to know what I was feeling. He let out a sigh before standing up and pouring me a glass of water.

I took the water that Blake gave me. It was warm, the heat of the glass transferred to the palm of my hand, making me feel less cold. I bowed my head and remained silent for a long time. Blake stood beside me, silently accompanying me as I tried my best to process through my difficult emotions.

"So the two of you have returned…" Arthur started to talk like a mother scolding her children. "Did you guys go out to play without me?" He added.

Blake and I looked at each other before the two of us shook our heads in denial.

Arthur's glare turned sharper. He stared at my face for a few seconds before putting his arms up like he was exasperated.

"Why do you even deny it when you still have food residues on your mouth!" He said dramatically. My eyes widened as I hurriedly wiped my mouth with my hand. Sure enough, some food crumbs fell on the ground. My cheeks turned red as I hid behind Blake, trying to hide from the angry Arthur.

Blake let out a chuckle while Arthur sighed. "Fine," Arthur said with narrowed eyes. "I will forgive you but just this once. And only because we have important things to do."

Blake turned serious upon hearing him. He asked Arthur, "What happened?"

Arthur stretched his arms out before standing up and approaching us. Then, he said, "Alpha Dean sent someone to call us while you were out."

"He wanted us to go to the poison house together so that we can start detoxifying Blake."
