Fated For Lycan's Luna

Chapter 17

"Yes. So, can you heal him?" Carrie confirmed.

"I…"

"Enough, Carrie. One more word from you, and I will throw you back in school." Blake sounded harsher

this time.

Her eyes widened instantly. "No! I don't want to. Leaving was difficult enough."

Carrie inched closer to Blake with a pitiful look on her face. Then, she asked him, "Am I no longer your

beloved sister?"

"Sister?" I was stupefied.

I looked at her, feeling dumbfounded. After a few seconds, my cheeks flushed, feeling extremely

ashamed on my earlier thoughts.

Carrie's laughter echoed in my ears. Then, she held my hands and said, "I'll introduce myself again. I

am Carrie, 17 years old, Blake's sister. I've been away in a boarding school and just got home. Nice to

meet you."

She gave me a sweet smile, which was the opposite of her hostile behavior just now. I was still in a

daze when Blake pulled her aside. "Okay now. Time to let go of her." After that, he pulled me over to

stand behind him.

Carrie rolled her eyes at her brother. "What was that? Are you seriously jealous of your own sister?"

Blake ignored her and explained to me, "Carrie is always a bit cheeky. Don't mind her."

"When was I cheeky?" She protested but shut up after Blake glared at her. Then, a serious expression

appeared on her face. "Well…" She appeared embarrassed. "I was fooling with you just now. Sorry

about that."

"No, I don't blame you at all," I quickly replied and dismissed her concern with a wave of my hand.

"For real?" Excited, Carrie shoved Blake aside and grabbed my hands again. "I knew it! You must be a

kind person. Why else would our icy Blake fall head over heels for you? I like you so much!"

"Huh?" I blinked, not knowing how to react. This was the first time a girl confessed that she liked me.

"So, can we be friends?" Her eyes sparkled with anticipation.

"F-Friend?" My eyes widened in surprise. Someone was willing to befriend me? I could not believe my

ears.

"Why? Do you not want to be friends?" Her cute brows furrowed as she put on a sad face. I quickly

assured her, "Of… Of course I would love to! You're... you’re my first friend."

Hearing that, Carrie looked as if she was over the moon. She took my hands in hers and led me to the

couch, where she started telling stories from her school.

I stole a glance at Blake and saw him putting a hand on his forehead, looking done with Carrie. On the

other hand, I was overjoyed to gain a lover and a friend.

This was the best day of my life.

"Blake!"

"Blake!" We heard Arthur's voice from the door just when we were busy chatting. I could be wrong, but I

somehow noticed Carrie's dark eyes—similar to Blake's—sparkled when she heard the voice.

"Um, I need to visit the Red Moon Pack with you in a few days. Maybe we could do some research on

their poison. You—" He stopped short when he noticed Carrie, and his expression morphed into horror.

"Sorry to interrupt! We will talk about this later." Arthur almost instantly turned around to flee while

Carrie called out to him in a sweet voice, "Arthur!"

Arthur stopped in his tracks. He shook his head and scratched it, looking at us with an awkward smile.

"What is it?"

"Why did you run when you saw me?" Carrie asked, running up to him.

"Did I? Haha… I don't think so… I am just really busy…" Arthur tried hard to hint at Blake, who was

spectating leisurely with a fist in his mouth. He cleared his throat and said to Arthur, "By the way, Carrie

has just arrived home. You should bring her out and enjoy some good food."

"What?!" Arthur screamed.

"Don't you want to spend time with me?" Carrie questioned him with an innocent expression. He

lowered his voice and caved in with a bitter smile. "Of course I want to,” Arthur reluctantly answered.

"I shall leave now! Chloe, I will talk to you when I'm back!" Carrie addressed me excitedly.

I nodded as she dragged Arthur out of Blake's study. Staring at the duo, I was rather confused by their

dynamics. Truthfully, it was seeing a scene in a movie.

"What's happening between them?" I gave Blake a questioning look. He grinned. "Carrie likes Arthur."

I finally connected the dots, a smile subconsciously appeared in my lips. That was, until the smile on

my lips suddenly disappeared after I was reminded of Arthur's words about visiting the Red Moon

Pack.

Blake took a seat beside me, "What are you thinking? You're miles away."

"Hmm?" I finally realized that I had been staring at his face. Looking away, I mumbled, "Nothing, I

just…" I sighed and mustered up the courage to ask him. "Are you really going to the Red Moon

Pack?"

Blake was quiet for a while. Instead of answering the question, he directed it back at me, "What about

you? Do you want to come along with me to Red Moon?"
