Chapter 190
The whole pack house was silent. As if something heavy had moved from everyone’s chest, they felt relieved.
“Allison!”
Teresa screamed when she saw her losing consciousness. Everyone was worried for her.
“She will wake up soon. She just could not take so much.” Aurelia spoke out.
Ryan stared at Allison without moving his leg. Ethan glanced at him. When he saw he was not going toward Allison, he went to her and lifted her up. He looked at Glen and then at Ryan.
“I am taking her to a room.”
“Let’s go.” Glen said to Linus and headed to a room located downstairs.
Ryan did not say anything, nor did he stop Ethan. Others followed Ethan to the room, where he took Allison.
Ryan turned around and looked at Georgiana’s dead body. He looked at his officials. They nodded at him, implying that they would take care of it.
“Alpha”
Aurelia called Ryan.
Ryan gazed at her and said, “Well done. When I return to the Black Moon pack, I will declare you the leading witch.
Aurelia bowed to him and asked,
“Permit me to check on Allison. That child had to take so many things.”
Ryan gave her a nod. At that time, Ethan returned to the living room. He wanted to talk with Ryan, but before that, Ryan spoke out.
“Elora”
Elora did not reply to him. Her eyes were on her mother’s body. She was crying while looking at her. Her body was shaking as she was sobbing like a child who had just lost her mother.
“Elora?” Ryan called her once again.
She flinched and raised her head to look at him.
“Y–Yes?”
“Follow me.” Ryan ordered her and headed to the way of the garden area.
Elora slowly stood up. She was about to fall when Ethan rushed to her and grabbed her waist to stop her from falling.
“T–Thank you.” She said and moved away. She then followed Ryan with slow steps.
She turned to look at her mother for the last time and then spun to the way. She left the living room. Ethan was staring at her all the time.
Ryan was walking in the garden. When he heard Elora’s footsteps, he turned around. The moment he turned, Elora ran to him and hugged him.
She began to cry. She cried her heart out in his chest.
Ryan stroked her hair and said,
“Don’t cry. She doesn’t deserve your tears.”
“S–She said she wanted to t–take my powers when y–you would mark me. That means she wanted k–kill me.” She sobbed and burst into tears.
“I am telling you, Elora. The faster you can move on, the faster you can get your life back. She did not love you. She only loved power. Otherwise, she never tried to hurt you in the first place.
Elora broke the hug and looked at him. “Y–You knew that it was her plan, but you still saved me. Why?”
He smiled at her warmly. It was the first time she saw him smiling at her. She used to love this man a lot. But that time, he never gave her a small smile.
Ryan caressed her hair and replied,
“You are a pure soul. You are not like your mother. I could not let any innocent person die because of her mother’s stupidity.”
She bit her lip and hugged him once again.
“Thanks, Ryan. You are the master of my fate, indeed.”
She heard Ryan,
“Someone is so eager to talk to you that he is hiding behind a tree and eavesdropping on our conversation.”
“Huh?”
Elora moved away from him and turned around. She noticed Ethan standing behind a tree. He came out and scratched his neck.
“I am sorry, I was just worried so-”
“That doesn’t suit you, big brother. If you wanted to talk to her, you could have told me. I am not like you, who is after another man’s woman.” Ryan said and winked at him.
Ethan was stunned to hear him. The way he was soothing Elora, he thought he would not let Elora go and really made her his Luna.
His eyes widened as he realized how Ryan was two years ago.
“Lil brother, how can I forget how good you are with girls?” Ethan said and shook his head.
You are wrong. Not for once I touched her, not even let anyone do that. I knew she was your mate. I was reserving her for you.”
Ethan walked to Ryan/and without saying anything, he hugged him.
Ryan was taken aback by his sudden action.
Elora was watching the two brothers talk about her. But when Ethan hugged Ryan, she stared at them. She could see how awkward Ryan was looking right now. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
She grabbed Ryan’s band and put it on Ethan’s back.
“You allowed me to hug you twice. Now it’s time for your brother. Accept his apology and let everything go.”
Saying that, Elora walked out of the garden, leaving the two brothers alone.
Ryan looked away when Elora had left the sight. He patted Ethan’s back.
“I am really sorry. I should have taken care of how you were feeling. Now I am feeling like I was a selfish kid.”
He broke the hug and looked at Ryan. He cupped his face and said,
“Forgive your brother. I did wrong to you. From childhood, I was afraid of losing Mom and Dad. I thought you were already their son. So if I left their side for a moment, they would corner me like other people do to their adopted child. I didn’t want to be like them. I wanted to be the best son for them, someone who always took care of them. But I should have always thought about you too. In my own world, I forgot that you also have a heart. You can also feel needy for your parents. But I swear, I always wanted us to be together. I never wanted you to go away from us like that. You never told me why you disliked me. So I started to dislike you too. There were so many fights between us, but I never thought to hurt you. Until Allison came into our lives. I regretted after rejecting her. I wanted to make everything right. For once I forced her to be with me after the breakup. That was my fault. I should have seen how much you loved her.
But then I wanted to protect her. If Georgiana didn’t lie to me, I really let her go for you. However I wanted to save her life. But lastly, my wolf turned wild for his second chance mate. He was afraid to lose his mate so he almost hurt Allison. I realized at that time that I could not be with her anymore. I asked for forgiveness from her because I could not marry her. I was scared that she would die. 1
I want to thank you, Ryan. You made me feel what rejection actually feels like. I thought that apologizing to someone could mend their heart, but I was so wrong.
Thank you for saving my life and proving that you really think of me as your own brother.”
Ryan averted his gaze and sighed. He removed Ethan’s hands from his cheeks and cleared his throat.
“Stop being emotional. I have to go. I have so many things to do.”
Ryan walked past him and headed to the entrance.
Ethan turned around to him and said,
“Ryan, Allison loves you a lot. In the past two years, I could not win her heart because it was only you who was always in her heart. It was all a misunderstanding, and she was just in a trap. It was never her fault.”
