Chapter 39

MORNING:
KATHERINE
Leo never stays for this long without saying a word to me. It was so surprising but I couldn’t question him because I knew I had messed up big time. I left the pack and ended up in the clutches of the same man he was trying to protect me from on my
OWIL
The car halted, and when the door was opened, I stepped out first followed by Leo and Blake.
“Can you walk? It would be faster if I carried you, Katherine.”
Finally, I was happy he said something to me. I stared up at the mountains and nodded my head, “Carry me.” I said. If only he would speak more to me, then maybe I would be very comfortable.
He came towards me and swept me off my feet, “Hold on tight” He whispered and sped away leaving Blake behind. In a couple of minutes, we were in front of a waterfall surrounded by trees,
“It’s right here,” Leo said and I cocked my head back to stare at him. Tears welled up in my eyes as I walked closer to him. This was where my kids died? I asked myself and halted by his side. I was silent for a few minutes, and I sniffled,
“Can you give me 5 minutes?”
He nodded his head and walked away while I remained alone. My gaze couldn’t leave the waterfall, and now I could freely let go of the tears that welled my eyes,
“How are you doing, my precious babies! Mommy’s here, but she came a little too late. I clenched my hands and shut my eyes for a few seconds. When I opened them, I could feel my eyes burning up and my heart aching but this was satisfying. At least I knew where they were resting! My precious little children
“I missed you so much, and I’m sorry. If I was a little stronger then maybe I would have been able to protect you two.” I couldn’t stop the tears that rolled down uncontrollably,
“Mommy will be strong now and I’ll try hard to fight back. I’ll be happy, and I won’t forget my children. I love you two so much so keep resting and be happy wherever you are. I pray every day for you” I uttered and rubbed the tears in my eyes and my face. I could feel a heavy load slowly being lifted from my heart and I realized it was the pain I had carried for too long. Leo played a big role in helping me lift that pain from my heart and I had him to thank for that.
I turn around to see him leaning on a big branch waiting patiently for me. His gaze refused to leave mine, and seeing him like this made me recall the first day I had met him. The night saved me from Zane’s men who were after me. He had grown even more handsome and his hair was shorter now. His eyes were still very beautiful, and he still had that
smart look.
I smiled at him, asking myself what I would have done if it weren’t for Leo, and then I began to take steps towards him while he didn’t move from his spot.
When I was about four steps away, I tucked my hand into my jeans pocket just like him,
Tve always wanted to ask, how did you know I desperately needed help that night?
“Because you asked for it. He responded immediately, but his response got me confused.
“No one was listening to me, and I only asked for it in my mind. I desperately wanted to live so I called for help, but I was certain no one could have heard me. How did you…”
“I have no idea. In my sleep, and everywhere I went, I kept hearing your voice. I kept hearing your plea for help and I had to come to find out who you were or how you had access to my mind, my thoughts, my dreams, and my Lycan.” He cut me off, still leaving me surprised. How was it even possible that someone from a far distance had heard my cries for help and had
come to save me?
“Are you ready to leave?” He asked and I nodded my head. He picked me up in his arms and sped away with me, and when we got back to the car, he dropped me.
“Let’s get in,” Leo said, but I stopped him.
“Can we go somewhere? I know I’m asking too much but I need to go to the blue crest pack. I want to be certain of something.”

I watched him arch his brows as he stared at me, and I could tell he was thinking I wanted to go see Zane.
“It’s not what you think, okay? I need to go back to the old house where I grew up so I can confirm something really important.”
He gave me a long look before taking a step towards me, “Just that?”
“Yes, I promise it’s just that. I replied, and he turned around to look at Blake. “Let’s head there.”
I let out a smile, but he turned his gaze away from mine almost immediately and got into the car. Once I got in, Blake shut the door and headed for the driver’s seat. It took hours but we were finally at the Blue Crest Pack
Blake halted the car right in front of the building, and I stepped out of it first. I began to run in, while Leo trailed behind me and when I found out the door was locked, I waited for him to come help me,
“Step aside!” He uttered and I did as he instructed. I took five steps away from him, and in a second, the door was lying on the ground
“Is there nothing you can’t do!” I whispered to myself and began to run into the house. The moment I got in, I halted in the living room and began to stare around. They were all my things. Everything that I owned in the blue crest pack was here. They were right in the middle of the living room. Did Zane do all of this? It meant that he never got rid of everything that belonged to me after he rejected me.
“What are all these?” Leo’s voice sounded from behind me, but I kept staring at everything.
“They’re all my stuff, I responded, refraining from telling him what Zane’s plan had been from the beginning.
What the hell was Zane up to now? Was this another scheme to get me? Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
