novelxo Chapter 228
Chapter 228 AURORA I dont think Im the kind of wolf Piper deserves .
The words of Warrick from the previous night turned in my mind while stepping outside into the cold morning air .
Self doubt from his words still stayed , ghost like , in the packhouse , and Piper seemed all too aware of it .
But today wasnt the day for that .
The stress of wedding preparations reached a height , and I needed this one moment in peace before being consumed by the stress .
A fact Dane seemed to know , from the way he leaned against the doorway , awaiting me with that easy smile .
Stealing me away ? I asked , one eyebrow raised .
Call it a rescue mission , he returned , holding out his hand .
This lake was our spot , quiet from eyes and expectation .
The sun hit the water , shining , while the soft rustling of the trees felt like a gentle massage .
I kicked off my boots and let my feet sink into the cool grass as Dane spread out a blanket .
Remember how I almost took you down during our first patrol together ? I said , smiling .
Chapter 228 1 smiled as I saw him pouting .
He picked up my dress and helped me into it .
2/2 Thanks , I breathed as I stood up , from him .
I looked around to quickly make sure nobody was watching .
I breathed out a sigh of relief as I noticed the area was clear .
You promise right ? Dane asked as he stood beside me .
I nodded , as I licked my bottom lip .
Aurora ! Dane ! You need to see this , Joclyns voice rang and I shot my head in the direction of the pack house .
We better start going back , I said and grabbed Danes hand as I pulled him away , even though he was grumbling .
Joclyn met us with urgency in her eyes .
Leif has fallen sick , she explained , even while a hint of worry laced her voice .
The pack is worried about how we will get along without his wisdom if this gets any worse .
Leif was one of our eldest werewolves , a source of guidance and wisdom for the pack .
The thought of losing him sent a stream of fear through me .
Ill go see him , I said immediately .
Perhaps there is something we can do .
Leifs room was half dark , and it smelled of herbs .
He looked frail and breathed shallowly , though his eyes still sparkled with that twinkle of wisdom which I admired so much in him .
