Chapter 57
Chapter 57
When I woke up, it was almost noon the next day. I looked at the side of my bed and found that Blake
had already left.
Thinking back to what happened last night, I couldn't help but blush with embarrassment.
‘I never knew that I could be so bold’ I thought as the scene of Blake and I passionately kissing until I
fell asleep flooded my mind like a raging river.
Feeling the inexplicable bliss, I prepared for the day and went to Blake happily. My cheeks heated up
as my heart felt warm and giddy. The smile on my face was not even whipped out since the moment I
left the room.
However, as I walked toward Blake’s office, I could not help but notice the way everyone looked at me
strangely.
It was far from the happy and accepting smiles I received last night at my birthday party. They just
greeted me and left in a hurry, everyone was unnatural.
Even so, that did not affect my mood. I didn't think much about it until I got there at the door of Blake's
room.
I saw Carrie just coming out of the room. The moment she saw me, her face changed and was
obviously flustered. Her expression had taken me aback.
“C- Chloe, I have something to tell you… would you come with me for a while?” She said as she was
about to pull me away.
I became more confused and then through the open door I saw a woman in the room.
A bad feeling stuck in my mind as I first laid my eyes as the woman inside.
Not even responding to what Carrie said, my hand was already pushing the door and entered. There I
saw how the woman looked clearly.
She was beautiful and her aura was very striking. One look at her and everyone would be stunned by
her impactful countenance, especially the ever-piercing eyes she had.
I stared at her and she at me, there was a nagging feeling that the woman in front of me did not like me
at all.
“Chloe, you’re up…” The silent stare down was interrupted by Blake’s voice as he greeted me.
Pushing back the unpleasant thought in my mind I walked toward Blake and smiled, “I seemed to have
disturbed you… May I know who this is?”
I asked while trying to hide the uncomfortable feeling in my heart as I could not help but look back and
forth to Blake and the woman.
The more I look at them, the more I could feel that they have a lot of similarities. So much that I could
even conclude that those similarities could make them look perfectly compatible with each other.
More importantly, from the way the woman presents herself, I could already feel that she was special.
“Chloe, this is Lyra. Lyra, this is Chloe…” Blake simply introduced Lyra's name and did not say
anymore.
As if on cue, Lyra stepped forward to say hello to me. “Nice to meet you Chloe.”
“It’s nice to meet you too.” I put on a smile then turned to Blake with a questioning look.
As a response, Blake took a quick glance at Arthur and Carrie who were standing awkwardly in the
room, then finally looked at me and said.
“Chloe, I still have something to talk to Lyra about, I will talk to you later.”
Not even processing what Blake said, Carrie and Arthur already started to pull me out of the room. As
for me, I kept looking back at Blake and Lyra with a bad feeling in her heart.
As Arthur and Carrie brought me to another place, I could not help but ask the two, “Just who is Lyra?”
The two looked at each other with complicated expressions then finally they answered.
“Well, Lyra is a fighter and she is very capable. She was one of the strongest and most reliable fighters
in the Silver Pack back then…” Carrie started to explain.
“You can also say that many of Blake's current achievements are due to Lyra's help in fighting
together…”
“I see… But what makes you guys so hesitant to tell me who she is earlier?” As I heard about her, I
thought that it would just be normal for someone of the Silver Pack to have a warrior like Lyra, just like
how there was Teacher Astor who trained everyone to be a very good fighter.
I could not understand how their faces contorted, not wanting to explain something to me as I asked
about her.
This time, Carrie elbowed Arthur and so I looked at him who did not have any choice but to explain
further.
“You see… Lyra is an orphan taken in by Blake… They grew up and trained together as well… and
then..” Arthur started to stutter and did not want to say anything more.
“And then?” I raised my brows and asked. The bad feeling intensified in my heart and I could not allow
myself to be kept in the dark as long as it is something that is related to Blake.
“T-then…She fell in love with Blake during the day and night together and fought side by side. At one
point, everyone in the pack thought that the two of them would be mates and she would be the future
luna…”
“But a year ago, Lyra chose to leave the pack and Blake because she wanted to avenge her family.
Blake once asked her to give up her hatred, but failed to persuade her.”
“Even so, Blake protected her safely, when he knew that Lyra found her mate a year ago, Blake gave
up completely.”
“This time Lyra suddenly came back, I heard that it was because her mate just abused her, she finally
escaped a month ago, after a month of recuperation, she finally decided to return to the silver pack.”
The more I hear Arthur explain about Lyra and Blake’s relationship, the more her heart sank.
I tried to maintain my composure and worked hard to grasp the key information.
Lyra was very capable… her achievements spoke greatly…
She and Blake were in love...
They were even viewed as future mates and a couple…
The supposedly Alpha and Luna of the Silver Pack…
Then that moment, I recalled that when I met Lyra for the first time, I could not help but notice the
obvious similarity and compatibility she had with Blake.
“So…” Lost for words to say, I tried to strike another conversation but failed to do so.
The things in my head caused me to be extremely anxious. And as for how Blake still sees Lyra… I
didn't dare to think any further.
Seeing my reaction, Carrie and Arthur comforted me.
Arthur looked at me with sympathy and tried to dispel my anxiousness, “Hey, Chloe… Don’t think too
much about it. Lyra might only be here for a while this time, we still do not know if she plans to come
back to the Silver Pack as well.” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.
“Arthur is right Chloe. Don’t mind about Lyra and Blake’s past. Just know that Blake only likes you
now… You and my brother are mates, remember?” Carrie chimed in.
But I couldn't listen at all. Their words meant well, but I seemed to have been stuck in my own world
thinking about how Blake might possibly give up being mates with me and choose Lyra in the end.
After all, that thing had already happened to me once, it might happen again later. At that thought, I
began to panic and subconsciously grabbed my clothes in my nervousness.
“Chloe…” Just as I was immersed in my emotions, I heard Blake calling out my name as he walked in
the room.
