Chapter 314
Chapter 314 Catherine's POV My heart ached for Blake. I could only hold him tight and be there for him.
I thought Blake would tell me more about Marc and the woman in the photos after his grief. To my surprise, I heard Blake's steady breathing coming from my arms. I looked down only to see that he had fallen asleep.
He was indeed tired. I kissed him on the forehead and then turned off the light. I turned in as well.
That night, I fell asleep with Blake in my arms.
In recent days, the pack had been in a bit of a flap, as Blake had personally
sent the werewolves who had been by his side for five years to the werewolf court. Almost all the werewolves were keeping an eye on the matter, and Blake was waiting for the result.
He would keep me updated on how things were going every night, sol wouldn't worry.
The werewolves who leaked classified documents of the pack expressed their strong dissatisfaction in court, insisting that they did not leak any information at all. They claimed that it was nothing but a complete fabrication.
However, the proof in Blake's hand was concrete. Their denial was feeble.
[ knew Blake well. He wouldn't take action without solid proof.
The Council soon heard about it, too.
They were furious, but they hoped that Blake would go easy on those werewolves.
When Blake told me about this, he smashed the table in a rage.
"It seems that someone has bought off someone in the Council," I said.
"I agree." Blake nodded.
He looked solemn. We both knew that a long, tough battle was awaiting us.
It was a deadlock situation.
If Blake was defeated, he would be questioned by the werewolves in the pack, his authority would be challenged, and even the company would be affected.
I wanted to call him so much, but I was
worried that I might disturb him.
After struggling for a long time, I gave | up the idea. I called Melinda instead.
"Melinda, do you know the issue going on in the werewolf court recently?" I needed to talk to someone about this, or I would go mad.
Melinda said, "The werewolves in the company are all over it. We all think King Blake is doing the right thing." When I heard Melinda's firm tone, I felt a little better. I nodded. "Blake won't do them wrong. They betrayed the pack. They cannot get away so easily." "Don't worry, Cathy, we all have faith in King Blake. You should, too,"
Melinda comforted me.
11 do have faith in him. It's just... The | waiting is killing me," I said in a Tow voice.
"I know what you're going through.
Cheer up!" Melinda encouraged me.
"Thanks, Melinda. I'll get out of your hair now. See you around." I felt bette after talking with Melinda.
"Alright. I am a little busy right now.
Don't worry, Cathy. Everything will be fine," Melinda said before hanging up the phone.
I stood up and planned to go downstairs to get some water.
As I opened the door, I saw Nick pondering over something with his hands on the railing.
The sight of him made me alert instantly.
"Catherine, are you going out?" Nick | turned his head to look at me and asked with a smile.
I shook the glass in my hand. "No. I'm going downstairs to have some water." Nick shrugged. "I'm going downstairs, too. Catherine, something big happened today, right?" I became nervous. "Where do you stand on this?" Nick said lazily, "What do you think? I am a member of the royal pack as well.
Of course, I hope that Blake can win the case," "Liar," I said to Nick in my heart.
[ did not want to expose Nick's true colors. I walked past him and headed downstairs.
In the hall, Patricia and Emerson were also discussing this matter.
"Cathy, you know about this, right?" patricia asked me when she saw me coming downstairs.
"Yes. Blake told me about it," I replied in a low voice.
"Don't worry. I'm sure Blake can handle it," Patricia comforted me as she held my hand.
I smiled tenderly, "Thank you, Patricia. I believe in him, too." After pouring a glass of water, I went upstairs. It just so happened that Nick was going downstairs at the same time.
We met again on the stairs. | He blocked my way whether I moved to | the left or the right. Such a childish prank made me very unhappy.
"I'm sorry. After you!" Seeing the gloominess on my face, Nick said right away.
Nick couldn't maintain his gentle smile anymore, which made me even warier of him.
I thanked him and then left at once. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Blake's POV There were many werewolves gathered at the entrance of the werewolf court.
They all wanted to know the results of the trial once it came out.
The werewolves who betrayed me
looked dejected. Dowen and I came out behind them, and the smile on Dowen's face was bright. Behind us were the members of the Council.
I nodded at the members of the Council who came out behind us and then left with Dowen.
We won. The crisis that the company and the pack had faced was over for the time being. What was more, the company's business expanded because of it. Those were exactly what I was hoping to see.
When Dowen and I returned to the company, we were welcomed warmly by the members of the pack.
"What a close call this time, King Blake. Some of the members of the Council have compromised. And those traitors refused to tell us who was
behind it. I'm glad that we have enough evidence, and you insist on punishing them." Dowen still felt worried when he thought of it.
"I know. It has been a couple of tough days for everyone. We should have a gathering tonight and celebrate." I decided to hold a celebration dinner tonight. It had been a hard time for everyone, and I wanted them to relax.
Moreover, I wanted Catherine to join us. It would be the perfect time to bring Catherine back into the fold.
I called Catherine and asked her.
Catherine was happy to join us, which placed me in an even better mood.
I had been very occupied with the company and the pack these days, which made Catherine worried sick. It
wasn't easy for her either. And now, she must feel relieved as well.
I planned on driving home and picking her up myself. Then we would go to the party together.
Just as I arrived at Mountaintop Villa, I saw Leo's car. What a coincidence! "Leo, why are you back?" I asked curiously.
Leo pulled the passenger door for Sunny to get out. Then he put his arm around her shoulders and said, "Blake, let me reintroduce her. This is my mate, Sunny!" J was so surprised. Then I smiled and said, "Congratulations. You finally found your mate. No more mating gathering forced by Patricia, right?"
| "That's right!" Leo laughed. I could tell that he was very happy.
"I'll take Cathy out later. You may stay home with Emerson and Patricia together with Sunny." I nodded at Sonny as a greeting.
Leo immediately agreed, "OK. Are you going out for dinner tonight? Is it for celebration?" "Yes. The timing is perfect. It's a good time to bring Cathy over," I said.
Due to the previous misunderstanding, everyone thought I was going to reject Catherine, which made her suffer a lot.
I made up my mind. I would make it clear to every werewolf that Catherine was the Lycan Luna. | would never leave her again.
"Alright. Have fun!" Leo said sincerely.
I nodded and turned to go upstairs.
Right now, I wanted to see Catherine more than ever.
