Fated For Lycan's Luna novel Chapter 87

blake's POV

“Sigh…” I looked around and could not help but pout.

It’s been boring these days without Chloe around.

Her disappearance was something no one would expect. Because until the last minute, Chloe did not even show any sign of no longer wanting to stay in our pack.

“What could have happened to her that she suddenly ran away?”

I thought as I once again tried to play detective to solve the mystery of her departure.

‘Is it because of Lyra?’

No way because it was even Chloe who introduced Lyra to everyone and helped her become closer to the pack.

‘Is it teacher Astor?’

That’s not possible as well because during the day, I could see Chloe’s enthusiasm in learning from teacher Astor when he decided to teach her medicine.

‘Could it be… Big Brother?’

This thing, I dared not to think, because I only knew that they had a date a night before her disappearance and yet I did not even hear them quarrel that night.

Even so, I still cannot figure out the enough reason to warrant her leaving.

Last few days, when Big Brother went out to search for Chloe, I was really hoping for her to finally come back.

But seeing Blake’s dejected expression, my heart sank as I could not believe that even my big brother could not do anything about her being missing.

I opened my mouth in an attempt to question him and yet, here comes Arthur, dragging me away to prevent me from asking Blake.

“Hey~” I looked at the servant innocently cleaning the lounge where I usually hangout, Chloe.

“Do you think Chloe would come back before my birthday?” I asked her rather randomly.

But I did not care, I just wanted someone to listen to my feelings.

“Erm… My lady, it is apparent that Chloe likes you so much… I am sure that she will come… when she can…” The servant carefully answered as if to not hurt my feelings.

‘When she can…’ I repeated it in my mind and had a deep thought.

‘How is Chloe these days… Is she doing fine?’

‘Is she not in trouble?’

Having her gone is like losing a sister, a genuine sister who looked at me sincerely. She never treated me differently because I was the Alpha’s sister. She treated me the way I deserved to be treated, and for that I really cherished her in my heart.

Thinking about that, it pains me to realize that I was not able to see that she was already struggling here, so much that she chose to leave.

I didn't even manage to comfort her during the time when hardship came.

“Hah… soon will be my eighteenth birthday… I will become an adult.” I rubbed my head in sadness as I mumbled.

“I am sad that Chloe might not even see how I would turn out as an adult…”

And in my mind, I am sad to see that Chloe would not witness the moment we all been waiting for.

I did not know what was running in his mind, but since I already told my piece, I continued.

“In my heart, I have always been thinking of Arthur… and I have always thought that Arthur would think of me the same way.”

“I really do think that Arthur cares about me… so whether or not he is my mate, I am a little worried…”

“Teacher Astor, what if all this time, my affection for him would have to be thrown away just because he is not my fated one?”

“Would the Moon Goddess really be that cruel? To ignore the true feelings of his subjects?”

“Could she not answer my prayers every night, that Arthur would be my mate when that time comes?”

As I talked and talked about the deepest feelings I never voiced out these days, my mind forgot to think for a moment and just freely let out the thoughts I had.

Teacher Astor finally faced me and walked toward me with an unchanging expression.

I stood on the ground, clenching my fist to hide my nervousness as I anticipated what Teacher Astor could do.

‘Will she scold me for blatantly confessing my affection toward his son?’ I could not help but ask in my mind.

But contrary to my expectation, Teacher Astor only sat at the stool just in front of me and patted my trembling shoulders.

“Carrie, even I do not know the Moon Goddess’s intention in choosing everyone’s mate.”

“But there’s one thing that I am sure of, no matter how that son of mine tried to hide it from everyone.” He looked at me and his next words caused my mind to buzz and be put in a daze.

“I have always known that Arthur, that silly son of mine, only had his eyes on you for a long time!”
