Chapter 140



Now it was Aldrich’s turn to face me, who was trying to escape.

“Don’t do that! You need fresh air!”

He tried to pull me out of the blanket, but I tried my best to stay away from him and retreated to the other side of the bed.

“Let’s just talk like this for now!” I said gloomily. ” I can’t face you now. Please, don’t force me!”

Aldrich softened his attitude and tried to get me to leave the fort made of blankets.

“Fine, you can do whatever you want. It’s fine if you don’t want to look at me, but please free yourself from the bed, okay?” He gently patted the edge of the bed. “We can talk with our backs to each other. You have your back to me, and I have my back to you. Can you do this?”

“Really? You can’t peek.”

“I swear to the Moon Goddess that if I peeked, I’d ask her to take my eyes away. I’ll turn around first; then you can come out, okay? 3,2,1, I’ve already turned around.”

I sneakily lifted a corner of the blanket, and Aldrich’s back was facing me, so I came out of the blanket and used a pillow to cover my face.

“Alright, we can talk now.”

I also had my back to him as I leaned on the soft pillow.

The elastic goose feather pillow pressed against my unhealed wound. It was a little painful, but there was also an inexplicable sweetness.

We were so childish.

I suddenly had this thought and laughed.

“What’s wrong, Selma? Why are you laughing?” Aldrich asked.

I cleared my throat. “Because I want to laugh. You’re not allowed to ask anymore.”

“Alright,” he said, surrendering.

In the end, I wanted to laugh even more. There was a mirror on the bedside table to the left. I turned it around and could see Aldrich’s every move.

The way he raised his hands made my heart soften.

I forced myself not to be stupid. It was more important to discuss business.

“What did the werewolf grandmaster and Tracy say about my coma?”

“Tracy believes that sleep is a form of compensation for overusing one’s energy. The werewolf grandmasters also agree on this point. Master Hayley says this is a positive sign of the runic patterns fusing with you. Sleep prevents most of the unnecessary activities of the body and tries to save as much space as possible to allow the runic patterns to form a hidden link.”

“What about Dorothy? How is she?”

“She’s still unconscious. Don’t worry; she’s not in any danger for now. Soul imprints are more complicated than physical imprints and will take more time. She will probably wake up only after your scars have healed.”

“Alright, may Moon Goddess bless her. Can I go and see her?”

“Sure, but there’s no need. Master Hayley believes that a quiet environment is more conducive to her recovery. Besides, your boyfriend doesn’t want you to talk about Dorothy all the time, even though she’s your good friend.”

“Hahaha, don’t be jealous, Aldrich! You know I love you the most. Did Father say anything about the advanced party?”

“There’s good news and bad news. The good news is that they’ve successfully set up bases in several locations in the Rocky Mountains and the ruins of the witch clan. The bad news is that there are movements from other forces in the Rocky Mountains, and at first glance, it looks like the human church.”

“The human church? From which denomination? What are they doing here?”

“It’s still unclear now. The human church has a wide variety of denominations that even they don’t understand. The advanced party can only confirm that their protective clothing has a cross printed on it. As for the purpose, the advance party is still carefully observing and has yet to make contact because they are unsure whether they are friend or foe.”

” I hope we can live in peace. At least we won’t start shouting at each other whenever we meet... Let’s not talk about this for now. Is there anything worth paying attention to in the pack these few days?”

“No, it’s calm, just like before Adele came. By the way, I should invite your parents to come down and see you. I was so excited that I forgot about this.”

“No, don’t. Please tell them I woke up safely, but tell them not to come over yet. I want to stay with you for a while.”

I looked up at the mirror and saw Aldrich had turned around without me knowing and was looking at my back with a smirk.

I knocked the mirror down and exclaimed, “You’re being shameless!”

“Yes, I cheated because my lover is beside me, and I can’t stand her leaving my sight for a moment.”

Aldrich acted as if he didn’t see my little cheat tool. He picked up a strand of my hair and wrapped it around his fingertips, his voice lingering.

“I’m not afraid the goddess will come for my eyes because they already belong to someone else.

“Without my lover’s permission, I will disobey anyone’s orders, even the goddess.

“So, please have mercy on your shepherd, my lover. Turn around and look at me.”

I slowly turned around as if the silver tongue had bewitched me.

Then, my eyes met with Aldrich’s, brighter than the stars.

He sighed softly. “My goddess, my lover, my universe. I have no regrets in this life since you looked at me.”
