CHAPTER 72

  NALANI'S POV

   

  "I hate to see you this way." He said, bringing me into his embrace as he engulfed his arms around me with his already wet jacket wrapped around my shoulders to shield me from the cold, heavy rain, but the moment it landed on my skin, I felt warmth.

   

  I was numb, unable to imagine everything that had taken place in the last few hours—the betrayal by Terran and the fact that I ran away from him, from my family, and from my responsibility to my pack.

   

  I didn't get the chance to say goodbye to him; I was scared.

   

  I was scared that the moment I got to see his face, I would change my mind completely. I was scared that his soft and calm voice would stop me from thinking well. I was scared that I wouldn't be to think of leaving him the moment I see him, even though he has hurt and lied to me.

   

  Even though he has betrayed the trust I had in him, I was scared that I might run back to him.
