Fated For Lycan's Luna (Chloe and Blake) novel Chapter 80

Blake's POV

It was as if someone had plunged a dagger into my chest and twisted it mercilessly, leaving me breathless and aching. No… it was like someone took a knife and plunged it in my chest a thousand, no, a million times.

I looked at the closed door and my shoulders started to shake. As I watched Chloe… my beloved mate, walked away from me, my heart shattered into a million pieces.

At that moment, I suddenly experienced pain that was indescribable.

My heart that has been mercilessly shattered into a million tiny pieces created many and each fragment was gouging my insides. The agony is unrelenting, an incessant throb that seems to be endless.

I thought that I had experienced pain… a heartbreak before. But as I stood there, looking at the door that Chloe closer, I felt something that was beyond anything I ever imagined…

Still, my mouth remained mum and my body motionless. I did not have the courage to go after Chloe and stop her from leaving.

Chloe… she is my mate, my world, my everything.

Before she left, I thought that the love that we shared was a flame that burned bright, igniting every inch of my being with an intensity that I had never known before. But now, that flame was flickering, struggling to stay alight.

And I could only stand there, frozen in place… Even though I felt like I was losing everything that mattered to me, I was powerless to stop it.

"Suffocated… She said she's suffocated…" I mumbled to myself. I felt like my heart was in my throat as I stood there, staring at the closed doors.

Soon, the feeling of self-blame filled my heart. My eyes that were staring at the door turned red.

"It's my fault…" I softly whispered. "Chloe… I pushed her too hard…"

She had told me that she felt suffocated in the Silver Pack. Suddenly, I could not help but blame myself… It was my fault for pushing her too hard.

I made her train with Teacher Astor everyday. I did not protect her from the pressure of being the Luna of the Silver Pack. Even when I saw she was having a hard time and her body was hurting, I did not say anything.

I had wanted her to be strong, to be able to stand up for herself, and I had pushed her into situations that were beyond her capabilities.

But in the end… it became the reason why she left me.

I had pushed her too hard and driven her away.

"Ugh…!" I gripped my hair and finally looked down, staring at the floor. "I let her down… I failed her as a mate…!" I whispered harshly.

The guilt was overwhelming, and I felt like I was suffocating under its weight. I wanted to go to her, to tell her how sorry I was and how much she meant to me, but I was paralyzed with fear.

My mind was spinning as Chloe's words repeated in my mind.

'Chloe asked me… If I could give up my position as the lycan king for her…' I thought to myself while blankly looking at the floor.

I have never had a single doubt. My mind was fully occupied by Chloe while my heart was fully devoted to her.

I would do everything and give up everything for Chloe. Compared to her, my title and authority as the Lycan King held little importance to me. Yes, it was my pack, my responsibility, but it could not hold a candle compared to my devotion to Chlor.

I heard him, his words felt like little hammers weighing down on my chest.

"...I didn't expect this, but it seems that the Red Moon Pack is really important to Chloe," Arthur added.

"When we got here before, I thought that Chloe hated this place and did not want to return. Even if my eyes were blind, I could clearly see her pack's contempt against her. I really didn't expect that despite that, Chloe will still hold the Red Moon Pack in high regard," he continued.

"Maybe, in the end, blood runs thicker than water… Even when we treated her the best that we could, in the end, she still can't forget about the Red Moon Pack…"

My eyes trembled upon hearing him but I did not say anything and continued to stare at the ground.

Arthur looked at me again and for the third time let out an audible sigh. "Listen Blake, I got to tell you this…"

"I believe Chloe will definitely not leave the Red Moon Pack right now-" he started to say but was not able to continue because of the glare that I sent him.

"H-hey…! Listen first…! I didn't mean it in a way that she hated us… It's because I heard something important!" Sensing my unstable aura and condition, Arthur hurriedly explained.

"Listen first, okay? Before he left, that guy Alan told me something that's going on with the Red Moon Pack. It's also the reason why Chloe can't leave them right now!" Arthur hurriedly continued.

I blinked once and finally stood straight and looked at Arthur.

"Something important?"

"Speak at once!" I hissed as my eyes that glared at Arthur turned suspicious.
