Chapter 116

Aurora’s POV

I felt fingers under my chin, lifting my face up to meet his. I’m sorry,Caleb told me, his eyes gazing into mine with a mix of emotions 1 merely name. I didn’t mean to upset you,

I know,I told him, managing a halfhearted smile. But what you told me is the truth.. and I needed to hear that.

Sighing, I took his hands in mine, realizing that I had been an utter fool all this time for believing what anyone else told me You’re my mateand feeling a weight in my chest that I needed to get out. And I should’ve listened to you instead of believing anyone else. But I was stupid enough to fall Mia’s trap and I’m sorry for thatsorry for the distance that I put between us.

Hey,Caleb pulled me closer, holding me in his arms as I felt the warmth of his embrace, the familiar scent of his. You’re not stupid. You had been thrust into the supernatural world in the blink of an eye and we’ve been info dumping on you things that we had known since our childhood. It’s a lot to take in, and when your entire world is being tilted out of proportion, it’s easy to believe someone who seems to make sense by playing into your insecurities.

I felt my lips quiver. How did he understand me the way he did? To himit all seemed so easy to explain, all the complex emotional turmoils that I had been through. But I wasn’t mad at him. I was happy that he knew what was going through my mind.

I’m really sorry,I said on a hoarse whisper, my face buried in his chest.

No, I’m the one who should be sorry.He said, weaving his fingers through my hair. I didn’t want things to be so heavy. I wanted to spend some time with you to lighten up the mood, but I did the opposite. Let me make it up to you?

I looked up at Caleb, blinking rapidly to clear my eyes of the accumulating moisture. What do you mean?

Come with me.He grinned suddenly. I want to show you something.

Where?I asked, wiping at my eyes, my face.

That’s a surprise.Caleb jumped off the bed and extended his hand towards me. Come on.

I didn’t hesitate to place my hand in his. I liked his attempt at making the mood lighter, I think we needed that. Because there was no need dwelling on the past and the future was yet uncertain. So I wanted to live in the here and now, and the only person that I wanted to live it with, was right beside me.

Caleb and I walked through the woods behind the pack house once again, but instead of taking the diversion that I knew would take us to the gazebo and the lotus pond, he took another direction instead, one that I hadn’t been on before.

Where does this path lead?I asked, following him as we moved past the tall cedar and the pine. The trees arched and twisted, the branches stretching like skeletons in the sky. The trees in this area seemed to be older than time itself, their towering canopy blocking out the light from the full moon. But even though the forest seemed to be imposing, intimidating, with Caleb’s hand firmly in mine, I didn’t feel scared at all.

You’ll seeright about now.

Suddenly, the forest gave way to the sandy beach, and the waters of the Blue Hill bay rolled to the shore, the sound of the waves crashing onto the sea a welcome diversion from the gloomy forest behind us.
