Fated For Lycan's Luna -
Chapter 157
Chloe's POV
Boom!
Powers clashing from me and Blake caused the hall to shake and for everyone to be thrown off theirinitial positions.
"As expected, our mate is indeed strong...” Aurora praised as we both tried to parry Blake's ruthlessattacks.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Blake's power rose from his arms as he struck the air toward me. His strength was like a gigantichammer pressing everything around him.
Everytime his attacks hit against my defense I felt like my entire body was shaking while trying toresist the destructive power in his moves.
"Urk..." I clenched my teeth and retreated, creating a distance between us.
There and then, I saw the overall situation of the battlefield.
Many of the warriors have already fallen and it was only a few more warriors assisting Vanessa, Allanand Caleb against Arthur and their unknown companion.
“This...” I stared wide-eyed in disbelief. I never thought that it would only take a few minutes for ourpack to fall against three people from Blake's side!
A wave of defeat and unwillingness came to me as I realized how strong Blake was. I could stillremember how nearly my entire pack had fallen just due to his coercion.
"What more if we have already faced Alpha Kain, which is stronger than Blake?" I could not help butquestion myself.
"Chloe! Watch out!” While I thought of these things Aurora's hurried voice rang in my mind as I felta strong force from a distance.
“This is not the time for you to foolishly standstill!” Simultaneously, Blake's voice roared like a rollingthunder as I saw him approach, ridden with his aura emanating from his body like a flame.
His figure rushed toward me. I was not even able to register the harsh wind that was alreadybrushing my body violently.
“We're going to get killed!” That is all I could utter as I tried to draw Aurora's power to try towithstand in defense.
But because everything was so fast, I no longer have time to use Aurora's power nor even move myhands to take some poison to defend myself. Even an attempt to dodge was already too late!Everything went dark for I subconsciously closed my eyes in anticipation of the attack. The nextmoment, I felt like my body was moving uncontrollably out of the hall to a far distance.
“Chloe!” I heard screams of alarm from far ahead which were only getting fainter and fainter as Idrift far away.
I did not know how far I have gone, but all I know is that there is another way, something warmcovering me securely, making me feel like nothing bad will happen as I continue to drift away.
Only when the harsh winds were gone did I realize that I was actually in Blake's arms and in a flashwe were already in a clearing that was already further away from our territory.
Immediately, my body jolted, I felt an electrifying sensation as I instinctively pushed Blake away,“Don't touch me!”
The cold wind immediately enveloped me once I left Blake's arms, but it is not what I care for at themoment.
The last person I wanted to confront alone would be Blake, my mate.
Blake stood still from where he was, his hands hung on his side as he stared at me with anunreadable expression.
“Take me back to the territory!” Looking at him being in a trance, I frowned and immediatelydemanded.
I could not let my guard down especially with him, when I know that even a small action from himcan solicit waves of emotions buried deep in my heart.
“Chloe... let's talk. Just you and me...” Blake took a deep breath, his eyes stared at me with longingand resolve.
“If it is about cooperation, then we must go back in the pack and talk in the presence of everyone. Ifyou insist on keeping me here then forget about cooperating! We will work separate ways!” My facedarkened as I hardened my decision.
"And what, Chloe? Are you going to fight with Alpha Kain with the level of strength you and yourpack showed earlier?”
“Tell me Chloe? Would you only stop to harden your heart if everyone around is already gone? Youhave already seen it at the banquet! You have already realized it earlier! You can't do it alone Chloe!You need us just as we need you!”
Even at a distance, I could see how Blake clenched his fist, as if he was trying not to leak whateveremotions he was hiding within.
“Isn't it why I allowed you three to even enter my territory? But you've started this mess Blake!” Themore I talk, the more my anger intensifies, “Blake I don't see the need for us to talk like this inprivate! I stand firm in my decision, If you insist then...”
“Then what, Chloe? Are you going to attack? Use your wolf? Or your poison?” Blake looked at melike everything about me is being laid out in the open.
"C'mon Chloe, bring it on. Right here and now, attack me with all your might! I am giving you achance to attack me without any defense. Hurt me from all the pain and hatred I gave you all theseyears..." He then opened his arms and looked straight at me, his taunts sounded like begging, as ifme actually hurting him was a way to atone himself.
I gritted my teeth as I looked at him, flashes of all the things that happened back then flooded mymind domineeringly. The horror of knowing that he was losing himself as he gave me his all. Thedread of losing the child I so carefully protected.
The image of him kneeling in the ground, full of guilt and remorse. The sight of him in despair as herealizes that he has lost not only our child but also me.
All of those attacked my mind and caused a violent rage brewing inside me. It demands to bereleased as it makes me feel utterly unable to breathe.
“Raaaaah!!” Mustering my strength from Aurora's power, I charged at him who did not even flinchnor move an inch.
Blake spread his arms wide open and closed his eyes calmly, ready to take no matter howdangerous my attack would be.
Inch by inch, my fist approached his body. But even at the last few inches, he still did not move, noteven his reflexes.
As I gritted my teeth, I saw an image of his smile while calling my name dearly that night.
Just one image made my body shiver in sadness as I stopped just before Aurora's power touchedhis body.
Realizing that I lost this unspoken gamble, I collapsed on the ground, tears rolling in my eyes as Iwailed, screaming all my grievances in front of someone whom I wish and not wish to see at thesame time.
"See, Chloe... after all this time... despite all that happened... Chloe, you cannot bear to hurt me atall.” Blake knelt on the ground approaching me carefully.
His eyes were full of emotions as he softly uttered, “All this time, you cannot let go of me Chloe, justas I could not let go of you either.”
