The Human Among Wolves のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 121 - チャプター 130

The weekend went by in a blur, but it was not the kind that fades easily. It was the kind that sits in your chest, so badly that it refuse to leave no matter how much you try to distract yourself, That was how this weekend that I had hoped to be my escape made me feel …It was worse . Everywhere I turned, every little thing I did, it all somehow led back to one person. I just couldn’t get him out of my head, like he had some invisible thread tied to me…it just felt as though he could feel where I was It didn’t make any sense. And that was exactly the problem. I sat on the edge of the bed in my room , staring at nothing in particular, my bag lying open beside me. I had been “packing” for almost an hour now, but nothing was actually done, I was carrying some of my old stuffs too . I just kept thinking. Overthinking to be specific . . “Lily…” Maltilda called from the doorway. I didn’t turn immediately. “Hmm?” “You’ve been folding the same dress for the past five minutes.” I b

Hearing that Lustre was now on Clara’s side wasn’t really shocking but it sure made me react in some kind of way, I just couldn’t stop thinking about the possibilities of this new friendship or alliance being built on the hatred they both had for me . But then I felt bad for Anastasia, Lustre must have been a jerk to me but never to Ana, she adored her , they were best of friends. “ Why do you think they became friends “ Anastasia added as we took the next walkway leading to our classroom . I was contemplating on whether or not to tell her that I feel that it was because they both wanted me away from Rex and Sebastian. So I shrugged instead . “ I don’t know …what do you think?” “ I think it’s because of Rex and Sebastian.:.” “ That’s exactly what I am thinking too “ I replied .“ I just don’t get it , she seemed to be doing perfectly fine when she came back and she even told me that she had completely moved on from Sebastian…I just do not understand the sudden change “ “ it

“ What does it mean when someone says he wants you?”I turned to Anastasia, who was so engrossed in her lunch, while I couldn’t even focus on my food.“ I want you, Lily… but I am afraid you don’t want me the way I do.”Those words just wouldn’t leave my head. I had tried to process them over and over again by myself, but I just couldn’t.No boy has ever said that to me before.Was he saying he was in love with me?What did he mean by I didn’t want him the way he wants me?I just couldn’t keep it to myself anymore.“ Huh?” Anastasia asked, choking on her rice. I passed her a glass of water, and after gulping it down, she turned to look at me.“ What did you say?”“ What does it mean when someone says he wants you, but he is afraid that you don’t want him the way he wants you…?”“ Ouuuu, that’s giving unrequited lover tired of yearning…” Anastasia giggled, and then she paused.“ But wait… did Sebastian say that to you?”I shook my head. I couldn’t tell her that it was his brother. Tha

I remember that day. The day I heard that voice in my head.“Run!”That was all I heard. I turned to see if anyone else was in the room with me, but it was just me. I was sure of what I heard. It was another voice… in my head.It sounded deeper than mine, rougher somehow, but I shook it off. I was in the pack house, and people got busy at night. I never really thought about it until now, during Amber and Maltilda’s quest for answers.“I want you to calm down and explain how it felt. Can you do that?” Maltilda asked, and I exhaled.“You don’t think it relates to the whole theory you have of me, right? Because it isn’t… I was hearing things, and I am sure of that…”I said it, except I wasn’t sure. There was this unsettling feeling I had.“What did the voice say?”“How did it happen?”“Was it before or after the howl?”“She said before…”Amber and Maltilda took turns asking questions, not even waiting for my response. I cleared my throat, and they both came to a halt.“I already answere

When I got back to Amber’s quarters that evening, I stopped at the door in confusion.Clothes were scattered neatly on the bed, trunks were open, books had been arranged in piles, and Amber was folding her dresses, Was she preparing for a long journey? .I stood there for a moment, trying to understand what I was seeing.“Amber…what is going on?”She looked up at me and smiled as I walked closer .“It’s time to go home.”I blinked.For a second, I thought I heard her wrongly.“Home?”I knew this home , it wasn’t centervile…but I have come to accepted that , The house Amber , Maltilda and I lived together was my home here , I had accepted it . “The Luna is well now. There is no reason for us to stay longer, The Alpha has granted us permission to leave .”I dropped my books on the table and rushed to her.“We are really leaving?”“Tonight.”That was all I needed to hear before I threw my arms around her.I hugged her so tightly she laughed.“I can breathe again,” I muttered against he
