Chapter 126

Blake's POV

It's been an hour since I came down as my mother requested. I was sitting among everyone but my mind was back with Brielle. Each moment spent away from her was unbearable. I couldn't help running back to her. I was so lost, everything happening in front of me was a blur. I can't be here anymore. I was too restless and it wasn't helping.

I excused myself and made my way upstairs. Opening the door to my room, I thought I would find Brielle still lying on the bed, but she was nowhere. I went inside in alarm. Where is she? I looked around the room, wondering if she had finally regained consciousness. If she did, where was she? Where did she go without anyone noticing? In what condition is she in?

I was about to go search outside, but I heard water running in the bathroom. I looked in the direction of the bathroom. She must be in there. I went there and went inside. She had her back facing me. I felt all kinds of emotions flowing through me as I thought my eyes were deceiving me. Not until I have her in my arms and feel her body, touch and breath will I believe that she is really awake.

My feet carried me to the shower. I opened the door and went inside with my clothes still on. The water drenched me as I reached out my had to touch her. She turned to me in her naked form. I couldn't hold myself back. I pulled her into my arms and hugged her for dear life. I felt like if I were to let go she would disappear and all this would have been an illusion.

" You are awake! I am not.. This isn't a dream, is it?"

Instead of a reply, she pulled my hair, making me wince in pain. Yep, this is no dream. She is really awake.

" Let go now. I'm suffocating," she says, struggling, and I let her go.

" Sorry."

"Look at you. You are all wet now. You should have taken off your clothes before coming in."

I chuckled. She is already scolding me now that she is awake. Still, I'm so happy she is right here standing in front of me.

I quickly took off my clothes and threw them aside. Brielle blushed as she tried to avert her eyes from my body. Silly girl. She just scolded me for coming in with my clothes on.

I reached for the rag and soap.

" Come on. Let me help you wash up."

" No way. I was finishing up the moment you came inside."

" No harm in the second round," I teased her, making her blush. She agreed and allowed me to tend to her body. While washing her and roaming my hands all over her body, it was hard for me not to be aroused. All I could think of was taking her there, but I restrained myself. She has only just woken up, and I don't want to get carried away.

Once I was done washing her, she returned the favor and washed me as well. I got lost at that moment, feeling her hands touch me all over. I closed my eyes, breathing heavily as I desperately tried not to fuck her.

Being together in the shower was not helpful. Luckily, I managed to control my urges until we were done and got out of the shower. Both of us got out and got dressed. I kept glancing her way just to make sure that this wasn't a dream. I was still skeptical despite everything that happened.

" Has it been a long time since you woke up? How are you feeling? Should I call the doctor to come and check on you?"

I looked at her and touched her forehead with my backhand, trying to feel her temperature. She felt normal, but I couldn't be at ease until a doctor confirmed it.

" Don't call a doctor yet. Right now, I'm so hungry I could eat a whole cow," she joked.

At that moment, her stomach growled loudly , making us both laugh. What great timing.

" Alright. Let's go downstairs and get you some food. Everyone will. Be happy to see you."

She went silent for a moment.

" How is everyone? I must have caused them a lot of trouble."

" No, you didn't. They are worried, and they care for you as their Luna and friend. The situation couldn't be helped, but it's all over now. You are fine, and we got rid of our troubles."

Although what she did was crazy and risky, it was all worth it in the end.

" I'm glad everything worked out as well and that our baby is safe."

She placed her hand on her belly and I placed mine over hers.

I have my family back. That's all that matters. We can finally move on in life.

" Let's go. We should feed the baby as well. He or she should come to the world strong and healthy."

From now on, I'll make sure Brielle and the baby are safe. We'll live to see our happy ending and finally bury our tragic past.
