355 A NEW DAY

“She just fell asleep. She needs to rest for a few more hours, but she is fine,” Ariana gave Eros a brief explanation on Emily’s condition right now, while the said girl was fast asleep because of the medicine that she gave her, so she wouldn’t be in so much pain.

“What about the scar?” Eros didn’t beat around the bush, he needed to know what would happen to Emily and the consequences of that attack.

This was the thing that bothered him the most. For him, he could care less about having a scar, but for a young girl like Emily...

Yes, Eros didn’t seem too aware about things like this, but it didn’t mean he was outright clueless. No matter how you put it, having scars on the face for a girl was a great deal.

It didn’t help with his conscience when the scars were actually caused by him. His guilt gnawed at his heart. He couldn’t help but blame himself.

Therefore, when Eros saw Ariana’s expression turn ashen, his heart sank. He didn’t want to hear her explanation.

“Unfortunately, the wounds are so deep, they will leave scars.” Ariana moved away and let Eros see by himself what Emily’s face looked like half bandaged. There was a blotch of red blood on the bandage, though the bleeding had long stopped.

“Can you do something about it?” Eros’ eyes fixed on Emily’s sleeping face, the left side of which was bandaged tightly, including her eyes. He had never seen her like this before and his whole body started shaking. “Can you do something about her scars?”

Ariana didn’t answer his question immediately, she was deep in thought and when Eros realized that, he shifted attention toward her and narrowed his eyes.

.....

“You are a healer, right? Why can’t you do something about something so trivial like this?” Eros hissed viciously, he was pissed because Ariana didn’t give him the answer that he wanted.

Hearing how Eros raised his voice, Colton entered the room. He knew that this young lycan could be a little bit emotional and he didn’t want his mate to end up like that little girl.

He didn’t care if he was the beta, he would fight him right there and then if he dared enough to lay a finger on his mate.

“I am a healer, but what she got is something more than just a scar.” Ariana let Colton stand in front of her because she was too afraid to face Eros right now. The color of his eyes turned darker and now they were the color of charcoal.

“What do you mean by that?”

“The scars were wrapped with traces of dark magic. I am a healer, not a witch. I know nothing about magic.” Ariana could feel surprise and shock hang in the air after what she said, therefore, she needed to confirm one thing. “Are you sure, it was you, who had clawed her? How could you have such power?”

Being human and having wounds like that, Emily would certainly have scars on her face, but Ariana would be able to help if that was the case.

However, what happened to Emily was way more than that...

“Dark magic?” Colton furrowed his brows when he heard that. He had never heard of a shifter who was capable of welding magic power...

On the other hand, Eros was not any less clueless than them about this whole situation.

=========================

Gael caressed Lise’s pale face, her lips were chapped and her short hair looked dull, but somehow, she was always the most beautiful woman in his eyes and he couldn’t explain this.

“Is it morning?” Lise asked softly, she snuggled closer toward Gael, while he wrapped her tightly with a blanket.

“Not yet. Almost.” Gael pulled her closer. “Cold?” He made his body warmer, so she wouldn’t feel cold. It was easy to do this since his power had returned.

“A little,” Lise said softly, as she put her hands on his chest and felt his warm body, which pleased her. “I want to see the sunrise.”

Lise didn’t open her eyes when she said that, but she was not sleeping either. She was just too tired...

“Do you want to see the sunrise?” Gael repeated her words, while holding her hand. He brought it to his lips, so he could kiss her knuckles. “Okay.”

“I want you to carry me on your back.”

“Okay.”

Gael kissed the top of her head and then moved swiftly to help Lise to put on her jacket, because she was easily getting cold recently and they couldn’t afford for her to catch cold when her condition was so bad like right now.

“Let’s go?” Gael said when the preparations had finished. He crouched down in front of Lise and let her climb on his back.

She was very weak, so weak that Gael was worried to death. However, he couldn’t show his concern and fear in front of her.

Gael clenched his jaw and tried to get rid of this heavy feeling in his heart when he felt this bad premonition.

“Are you ready?” Gael asked when Lise rested her head against his shoulder. He tilted his head to look into her eyes. They lost their light. They looked dull and lifeless.

“Hm.” Lise tried to smile at him, but all Gael could see was a futile attempt to show that she was fine, because she was anything but fine...

“Let’s see the sunrise...”

=============================

Liam didn’t return to their bedroom the whole night and Jasmine didn’t care where he was sleeping during that time. He could sleep on the streets for all she cared.

However, Jasmine didn’t sleep as well the whole night. She couldn’t close her eyes for a moment without thinking about everything that had happened in her life thus far.

Her life was a mess, indeed.

But, even after realizing that, she only dug a deeper hole for her by having an affair with Darius.

Yet, when Jasmine thought about that again, she convinced herself that she did that because she wanted a way to survive, so she could have someone that would look after her if worse came to worst, such as; Liam not returning because something bad happened to him.

Jasmine needed someone that would do something for her, to ensure her safety and Darius was the right person.

However, now Liam had returned and she was given the news about her father, she was at a loss. Jasmine didn’t know where her life would navigate her.

She raised her hand and looked at the bruises on her arm...

Liam returned only for a few hours, but he had hurt her so badly.

At this point, she didn’t think death was that bad. It would put a stop to this numb feeling.

Jasmine closed her eyes, but the first name that came to her mind was Darius. She enjoyed his company and didn’t feel like she wanted to end whatever was between them.

If she was condemned to have a horrible ending, since her life had already been ruined, why didn’t she live it the way she wanted it?

Her life was a mess, but she could do something to ruin it more...

And also, his life too...

Moreover, if Jasmine kept fighting Liam, she would only fight a losing battle, therefore, if she were to go down, she had to bring Liam down as well with her.

She would like to see the pain and anger in his eyes when he knew what she had done behind his back and how she humiliated him by having an affair with his warrior.

Jasmine would make sure the whole pack knew about this humiliating thing when the time was right...

Gael could feel the soft sand beneath his feet as he walked on this beach, while on the horizon, the light of the sun gradually ceased away the dark of the night, giving off a warm feeling and hope.

Today was a new day. No matter how hard the situation was, a new day would always come and give them new hope.

“It’s beautiful...” Lise said softly. She breathed heavily, with her arms wrapped around Gael’s neck. “The reflection of the sunlight on the surface of the sea is beautiful.”

“Yes, it’s beautiful,” Gael agreed with her readily.

There was silence as Gael walked with Lise on his back.

“I feel sleepy.” Lise moved slightly, until she found a comfortable position to rest her head on his shoulder.

“Sleep, you can sleep. I will walk a little bit longer until you fall asleep.”

“Hm.”

The sound of the waves that crashed the cliff coupled with the smell of the sea was the perfect solace that Lise needed at this moment.

“Can you talk to me?” Lise spoke very softly. “Can you talk to me until I fall asleep? I want to hear your voice.”

Gael felt like someone had stabbed him ruthlessly when he heard her voice. It was very weak, but he managed to talk...

“I saw you for the first time at a dinner party. You looked so beautiful and vibrant at that time. You are wearing a beautiful red floral dress with small butterflies printed around the waist and I couldn’t look away from you.” Gael tried to sound strong when he spoke. “Even now, I can’t look away from you.”

“I hated that dress.”

Gael chuckled when he heard that.

“You loved it, I heard you say it to your sister.” Gael gritted his teeth. “Do you love me?”

A beat of silence, but then she replied. “I hated you...”

And there were no more words that came from her...
