บท 239: Balance in the pack

Nate wasn't sure whether Lara remembered the little incident of the morning they slept together. Yet, he didn't have time to inquire and wonder. And he couldn't leave Lara home for a second time.

He was learning from his mistakes. Running away wasn't the right thing to do, ever, because Lara would misunderstand his reasons.

«Are you sure it's the right time?» Samantha murmured, observing the charts with attention. «It's the Black Moon. What if something goes wrong? It might affect our mood for the whole month.»

«It will work,» Nate murmured.

«You seem so sure of yourself. Has something happened with Lara to make your mood so good?»

«No, nothing at all.»
