Lira’s POV
“There’s no cause for alarm, she’ll come around. You’ve been together so long to be ruined by just a kind gesture of help and care to someone in your pack."
Varek let out a long breath, feeling some of the tension in his chest loosen. Anthony was right.
“Thanks, Anthony. I was dying to hear that.” He smiled with eyes glistening and scintillating.
“Anytime. That’s what I’m here for. I am always ready to render my little token of help.”
Varek stood up from his chair, feeling a little lighter than before. His conversation with Anthony was indeed helpful, but he still had a lot of work to do to repair the damage between us . But at least now, he didn’t feel like he was drowning in guilt.
“I’ll talk to her later. Maybe by that time, she had calmed down."
“That's a good idea. Lira always has a soft spot for you, so maximize it to your advantage.”
They walked to the door together, and Varek felt more prepared to face whatever came next.
Anthony held him on the shoulder. “You’ve got this, Varek . Just don’t forget that you’re not alone in this.”
“I am really indebted to you, Anthony."
When Anthony stepped out of the apartment, Varek could feel the weight on his shoulder had lightened.
But now, he had to find a way to make things right with me. He went to the apartment we shared together. When he opened the door, he called me, and I didn't respond.
He looked for me everywhere, and suddenly, his instincts urged him to check the wardrobe. To his surprise all my apparel and stuff were all gone. I left him, and he sank to the floor.
His inner fear has manifested. He was so careless with the only woman he professed to love.
He thought that standing firm and holding onto his position as the Alpha of the pack will make me calm and stay. He was completely wrong. The signs were glaring at him that I
he might lose me and it happened.
He could recall when we started our relationship about seven years ago.
In the first and second year, he never made room for me to doubt him, no matter what. All his actions were carefully executed.
He did things with absolute discretion. At some point, there was a lady we met in one restaurant sometime ago when we went to have lunch together.
I think the lady knew him way back. When she saw him at the restaurant, she ran and wanted to hug him. He quickly reacted and dodge it.
He didn't want to create any room for doubt for me . He wanted to be plain and clean to me .
When the lady saw how he reacted, she apologized to me because I was almost boiling. How can a random lady from nowhere want to hug my man.
She introduced herself and I got to know she was his junior way back in the university.
