Kapitel 252: That mistake had killed my father...

I and Emilia stood in stunned silence, trying to process what had just happened. Emilia was the first to break, a sob escaping her as she sank to the floor.

"This is all my fault," she whispered, echoing Lucius's earlier words. "If I hadn't … if we hadn't…".

I sighed and knelt beside her, placing a comforting hand on her shoulders. "No, Emilia. This isn't your fault, or Lucius's. We were all deceived by the spell used by Jared and Jade. Blaming ourselves won't help Selene or the pack.

As Emilia's sobs subsided, I helped her to her feet. "Come on," I said gently "It's not a crime to be in love and to express your love. These few months, knowing that I have finally found a mate, something I didn't think was possible… I've been at my happiest. Although, there's still some resistance from Lucius but we're perfect together. We cannot hide what we feel for each other,".
