Brooklyn's POV: Devin let me cry in his arms without stopping me. I didn't know how long I cried, but my eyes hurt. When I came back to my senses, I realized that there were two people behind him, with worried expressions on their faces. I may had delayed their mission. The belated shame made me escape from his hug. To my surprise, he leaned his head on my shoulders, heavier and heavier. "Devin?" "Sorry..." he replied, but his voice was extremely weak, "Brooklyn, I'm... sorry..." His body suddenly seemed to have lost its support point, and he fell on me. Just when I stumbled to lift him up, fortunately, the person behind him stepped forward in time to help him. I just found out that his abdomen was bleeding! We hurriedly took him to the hospital, and the doctor quickly took him into the operating room. I sat in a daze on the chair outside the operating room, staring blankly at the blood on my hands. Aaron also rushed over after receiving the news. The two people who asked dire
Brooklyn's POV : Okay, I had to admit that I might have a crush on Devin. It might be the special scent on him, or the plan of the moon goddess. Or... his gentleness attract me every time we met. He was not like Hale, everything he did was to please me. Devin was more like a rational adult whose every action was after thoughtful deliberation instead of emotionalism. He did nothing intentionally to please me but strangely I fell even more for him. But I did not know what was going on in his mind. I could feel that he cared about me. He was always trying his best to help me, encourage me and support me when I was in trouble. But just like what I said, whatever he did was after consideration. Was it possible that he treated everyone so well? Maybe the only wild thing he did was that kiss. But he apologized for this. I saw his regrets in his eyes. He still couldn't forget Lucy, his ex-wife. He never liked me. This fact hurt me so much. It was as painful as being run over by a car
I must admit, my mind went blank at the moment, I did not even know how to react. I could only stand in place and look at Devin. He looked at me quietly, with mixed emotions in his mind. I was not sure if this is what I want and I was not even sure what do I want, my mind was in a mess. Before I could make up my mind, he kissed my lips. His lips were hard and warm. It might be because of the fever, his lips were dry, and it annoyed me a little. But his kiss was soft and gentle, coming closer bit by bit, seducing me. I did not know how to react, I didn't even get to shut my lips, stopping him from invading me. I could only feel his lips on mine, getting more and more aggressive, his tongue slipped into my mouth just like silk. We were entangled just like knots, I couldn't help but moan a little. It was only then I got my head together and pushed him away. He seemed like he was still drowning in the fantasy. His eyes were red. I could see desperation in them. "Brooklyn." He called
Devin' POV: Sorry Brooklyn, you were right, I was a jerk. Emotions beat reason that day, and when I couldn't help kissing her, it made me feel flustered. I must admit that I had a strange feeling for this woman. She looked still fragile, like a doll. But whether she fought against her husband and family, woke up the Sever Link and changed her destiny, she was so brave and admirable. All who were struggling at the mercy of fate should come and learn her courage. I couldn't help but indulge in her charm. But there was a Lucy between me and her, there was even an Amy. Even if Lucy ruined the mate mark and didn't want our relationship at all, I couldn't let it go. Her affairs were like a stone, pressed on my heart. As long as I did't receive an answer for one day, I couldn't face my relationship of Brooklyn for one day. I felt like I was tainting Brooklyn. It forced me to pull myself together and restrain my emotions. Fortunately, B
Devin' POV: She responded with an active and passionate kiss.The reason was abandoned by me in that instant. I didn't need it anymore.The taste of Brooklyn was so good that I didn't even think I had been so excited and happy about Lucy, our moans and screams merged and we reached the other side of heaven together.Even though the injury and strenuous exercise made my physical strength drop so badly that I only had the strength to breathe after the end, my heart and body were satisfied.It was the first time I had felt satisfied since Lucy left, and I was so happy that I even wanted to reach out and put my arms around her and give her another hot kiss...Waited, Lucy!"I hope you'll take care of Lucy and talk about you and Brooklyn."Aaron's words instantly flooded into my mind, and my body trembled, my sanity awaHaleed from the capital of indulgence, the heat was covered with ice and snow, and my whole body was very cold.A sense of oppression hit me, and I
Devin' POV:"Desire breeds trouble."Susan suddenly said these words, got up, picked up the kettle from the stove, poured it into two bowls, and placed it in front of us."Drink it, it's good for your wounds to heal." She looked at me.I was a little overwhelmed and had to look at Aaron, who nodded at me before I picked it up and took a sip.The bowl of soup emitted a smell comparable to that of falling into a mouse hole, both fishy and smelly.But I had to gobble up at one gulp out of politeness.Besides, I didn't think this old woman wanted to hurt me.She was seemingly happy, the corners of her shriveled mouth drew an arc, and she kept nodding and saying, "Okay! Good!"After a while, she asked, "What do you want to ask me?"Aaron showed her the picture of the symbol on the cave floor. "Do you know what this is? Is it related to witchcraft?"Susan put the photo under the spotlight and her eyes narrowed until almost being invisible.A minute later, she suddenly threw the photo on the
Devin' POV:On the way back, I was thinking, that maybe it doesn't matter what witchcraft Hale uses.What matters is what their purpose is.What is the purpose of Lucy hanging out with them?I'm sure that in the two years I've been married to Lucy, I've never seen her have anything to do with Kate and her son.And Kate did not hesitate to steal ancient books from the ancient book pavilion, what did she wanted to do?I called the people in charge of the ancient book pavilion and asked them to check whether there were any missing books in the ancient book pavilion and what they were about.But there were a lot of books in the ancient book pavilion, and the workload of investigation is not small, I am afraid it will take a day or two."I'm wondering if Kate's purpose this time has something to do with the last council's vote?"Aaron suddenly said this.That was before Kate's incident. She has been actively promoting the war with the witch tribe, advocating the use of violence to gain pow
I didn't want to go to the Pisces pack, it was Margaret's mate tribe. Besides, I never went there before.But when Margaret called me, she noticed the lowness of my tone, and seeing that I was reluctant to say it, she said that I need to move to a new environment, change my mood, and go to a place where no one knows me to relax.Maybe she's right. Although I didn't want to meet people, I really need to escape from this environment and rethink about my future.I feel like I'm a sucker for trying so hard to escape from one restricted environment, only to get myself into another "cage".I guessed I deserved it.Aaron heard that I was going far away, and didn't say much. Instead, he just told me to be careful along the way.Abbey, who seemed to sense something, hugged me hard, and whispered in my ear, "Don't force yourself, come back sooner."I tried to avoid crowded places when I went out and drove my car into the forest.I drove for about three days and two nights. Abbey prepared enough
