Chloe’s POV
"I found a way to detoxify Aurora," Blake said and I froze.
'Found a way to detoxify Aurora? No way...' I thought, trying to calm myself down.
My poison was something considered as incurable. From the time it was discovered until the present,
no antidote was discovered to cure it. Blake only left for a few days, it should not be possible to find a
cure right away?
'Blake must just be teasing me. Or, he must just be saying it to cheer me up,' I thought while taking
deep breathes, trying not to put my hopes up.
Thus, I forced a smile before replying, "You don't have to say that to make me feel better." It involved a
very important of my life. I tried to make my tone sound lighthearted, but deep inside, I was shaken.
"I'm not just saying it to make you feel better, Chloe. I really found a way to detoxify your wolf," Blake
heard through my hesitation and confirmed his words. My heart started pounding hard in my chest.
He really found a way detoxify Aurora? My hands started shaking. I pressed them hard on my chest
and felt my heart beating like a drum.
"R-really?" I stuttered. Sudden happiness filled me. It felt like rain suddenly fell from the sky right away
a very long draught. Or like seeing the sun after a never ending night.
"Yes, really," Blake once again reaffirmed his words with kind words.
"T-thank you, Blake! Thank you!" I hurriedly thanked him as my eyes turned warm and my nose sour.
Soon, I felt tears falling down my cheeks and I started sobbing.
When I found that Aurora was poisoned with an incurable poison, it felt like I fell on the bottomless pit
filled with darkness and despair. Blake promised that he would find a cure for Aurora. But although I
trusted and believed in him, I still thought it would take him some time to find it.
I could not see Blake but I felt him smile through our link.
"Don't cry, Chloe," he gently comforted me. "And no problem, it's what I had to do."
"I promised you that I would look for a cure for Aurora. I just did what I promised," Blake softly replied.
Listening to his words, I started to feel calm.
After a few minutes, I managed to stop sobbing. Using my sleeves, I wiped my tears away and with a
little sniffle, I asked Blake, "But h-how did you found the antidote?"
Blake was silent for a few seconds before answering. "I happened to meet someone I knew while I'm
out. I will tell you the details of detoxification when I returned," he gently added.
He happened to meet someone. What were the odds? Maybe, the moon goddess really destined it to
happen? A big smile appeared on my lips.
"Okay! I can't wait for you to return, Blake!" I excitedly told him.
"After the detoxification, I can finally see Aurora! Blake... I've been waiting for that day to finally arrive!"
I said. Although I already calmed down, I still could not hide my mixed feelings of excitement and
happiness.
"Soon, Aurora and I will finally be stronger together! I really can't wait for that day to come!" I exclaimed
while my tears started falling once more.
'When Aurora is cured, I will finally have the strength and worth to stand beside Blake. I will finally not
be a useless dead weight to him,' I thought while with my sleeves, I again started wiping my tears.
"Mmnnn," Blake hummed in agreement as he patiently listened to me. He sounded so gentle. Even
when he did not say a word, I could feel how happy he was for me. My chest started to feel so warm as
I continued to talk to Blake about my excitement when I finally be able to meet my wolf.
After a while, with still high spirits, I finally said good bye to Blake as I wanted to tell Aurora the good
news.
Blake’s pov
"Is that Chloe?" Arthur walked up to me and asked. Chloe just finished talking to me and excitedly said
goodbye. Seeing Arthur walk towards me, I nodded in response to his question.
Arthur was quiet for a few seconds. He had an expression like he was in deep thoughts. For a moment,
he looked as if he was hesitating to ask something.
It was only after a few minutes when he met my eyes before asking, "Have you really considered it?"
My eyes turned serious. As I thought, he was really thinking about that matter.
Since Arthur asked in a straightforward manner, I likewise answered him in the same way.
"Yes. I have never been so clear about my decision," I told him without hesitation.
"There is nothing to think about. I need to do it for Chloe. You yourself are clear about how important
Aurora is to her," I added as if it was a matter of fact.
"But... even if it means you have to sacrifice yourself?" Arthur hurriedly asked. Unlike his usual light-
hearted tone, he spoke with a grave voice.
I paused for a moment and thought of the answer to his question. Could I really sacrifice myself in
order to cure Chloe? In my heart, there was only one answer to that question.
"Even if it takes my life, I will be willing," I told him with all honesty.
A frustrated expression appeared in Arthur's face before he covered it with his palms. Then, he asked
with an upset tone.
"You are the KING! You can't completely ignore the pack!" Arthur spoke with a louder voice. I looked at
my trusted aide and sighed.
I understood his feelings. Indeed, I was the Lycan King, the one responsible for the entire Silver Pack.
Normally, I would never risk my safety, in consideration to my responsibility over the pack. But this time,
even Arthur could not change my mind.
"Arthur, you know the answer to that. Even if there is an accident, you are still here. I am not at all
worried about the pack."
"Strictly speaking, you should also be an alpha," I told him with serious eyes.
They were words that have not been spoken for a long time. Arthur immediately took his palms away
from his face and looked at me with disapproving eyes.
"No! Don't even say that! You know very well, I don't want to be the alpha!" His voice turned even
louder.
"You are our KING! You should take responsibility for the pack! You, not I, should manage the pack!"
Arthur's eyes turned a little red as he spoke emotionally.
"Also, did you even think about whether Chloe would agree? If she knows that you would be sacrificing
yourself... putting yourself in a big risk to detoxify her wolf? Do you think that she still will agree with RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
this?"
I listened to Arthur's words and turned more serious. His words repeated on my mind but I did kept
quiet and did not answer.
Suddenly, while we were in the middle of the conversation, without ang warning, the door was suddenly
pushed opened. Then, an unexpected figure appeared.
My eyes instantly turned cold as I looked at the man who was looking at me with serious eyes. After a
few seconds, I opened my mouth to say, "You're here."
"Long time no see, Alan!"
