Chapter 117
ke''s POV
That entire afternoon, I could not help but be uneasy.
Lyra’s snide remarks pierced through my heart and caused my soul to stir in worry and fear that Chloe
would figure something out.
It is not that I wanted to lie about the entire situation. I just knew that Chloe would beat herself up the
moment she knew of these things.
I cannot bring myself to tell what happened when she left, I could not bear to see her feeling guilty
about it all.
“ke…”
cing back and forth in the office, Arthur who had just finished his report, sighed, and called my
name.
I turned on him and realized that he looked at me with a hint of me and helplessness, “Don’t me
Lyra too much…”
His expression and words caused my face to darken as I felt exasperated to hear that kind of thing in
his mouth, “Arthur, can you hear what you are saying?!”
I looked at him in ring frustration as my thunderous voice roared, “Because of her running her mouth
needlessly, Chloe chose to run off! Now, how are you going to convince me that she would not do that
thing again?”
Arthur looked at me with a resigned look as he sighed once more, “You cannot me her ke. You
know that she is just thinking about the well being of the pack. You are the backbone of the pack and
we cannot afford you to take drastic decisions like that.”
“What? Do you also agree with what she said?!” I looked at my friend, my trusted friend in disbelief. Of
all the members of the pack, he would be thest person I want to hear these things from.
“Do not get me wrong ke. I do not agree with her taking action without your permission, I just want
to let you realize that you are already losing yourself too much that you are already starting to lose your
people around you…”
Arthur looked at me with pity and disappointment as he continued saying, “Whether it’s your mate
Chloe or Lyra who is genuinely loyal to the pack… ke, you are pushing people to make decisions
that would hurt you because you are too blind to see that you are already destroying yourself before
their eyes!”
Listening to him, the words I wanted to throw at him choke me as my body flinched. His words pierced
violently in my heart however, I resisted.
I stand for what I believe in, and I chose to stick with it. I looked at him once more and vented all my
disappointment and frustration as I glowered, “Get out!”
Arthur only sighed and shot me a meaningful yet disappointed look. His face was telling me, ‘I have
already warned you…’
Then he stood up and calmly closed the door.
Bam! Extremely agitated and irritated, I punched the wall with all my might as I attempted to redirect
the unpleasant feeling brewing inside of me. The urge to inflict pain rose at its highest as I felt myself
rejecting the words I have just heard.
After sometime I calmed down, seeing the darkness in the windows, I realized that it was already
evening.
‘Chloe must have finished tending Lyra’s wound.’
With that I moved from where I was and looked at the mirror. Cleaning my face and wiping out the trace
of emotional fit I just had, I rehearsed a smile on my face as I prepared to face my mate again.
Heading towards our room, I knocked several times only to find no answer. In the end I opened the
door and found out that the ce was closed and dark.
Chloe has note back yet.
Frowning, I immediately moved and headed to Lyra’s quarters as fast as I could.
When I arrived, I saw the faint light seeping out of Lyra’s open door.
Without knocking I rushed inside to see Lyra sitting nkly at a couch. Her injured arm was neatly
bandaged, but her entire countenance emitted frigid cold.
“Where is she?” I asked, my tone is full of warning and apprehension.
“Gone…” Lyra lifted her face forward with a deadpan expression, “She might have run off somewhere.”

Hearing her words, I already knew what happened, especially when she shot me a look as if to say,
‘You have pushed me to do this!’
That moment, it was like a string inside me snapped and a violent anger emerged out of me as I rushed
toward Lyra and pinned her at the wall.
“LYRA!!! WHAT DID YOU SAY TO HER?!!” I shouted as I tightened the grip on her neck, wanting to
snap it all in a blink of an eye.
Lyra smiled as she choked and looked at me with disappointment and mockery on her face. Blood had
already dyed her mouth red as she grinned and replied, “Everything you don’t want her to hear…”
BAM!!!
“F&ck you!” I ignored the boundary and friendship between us as I pulled my right arm back and was
about to punch her body that was already pinned in the wall.
However, when I was about tond a hit, I felt a strong grip stopping my dominant right hand and
another pulling away Lyra on my grasp.
“ke, stop this craziness!” Arthur held my arm back with all his might as he tried to talk sense. On the
other hand, Carrie had already pulled Lyra toward
“Arthur… Carrie… Leave this matter to the two of us. Do not interfere.” I looked at the two with warning
as I was trying to rely thest bit of my sanity to restrain my exploding anger.
“Big brother, is this more important to you?! Chloe is already missing and with a child! Focus on the
critical things!” Carrie cried in panic as tears had already flooded her face.
Her words hit my mind with rity. She is right, Chloe is missing.
“I’ll deal with herter…” I threw another nce at Lyra who was already grimacing in pain and turned
to face the forest ahead. Chloe’s scent still lingered; I am sure that I could find her.
As I rushed, I heard Arthur say behind, “You’ve gone too far, Lyra…”
Yes, she had already been going too far, but I would have to deal with itter.
The important thing right now is to find Chloe right away.
Following her scent, I frowned as I realized that she had already run off far beyond our territory.
Rushing through the forest, I frowned when I realized several unfamiliar scents lingering in.
‘Enemies!’
