Chloe's POV

"So, the Moon Goddess has heard your prayers. You finally found out that Arthur is your mate. But then…"

"You ended up running away?"

I looked at Carrie, who sat huddled in the corner of my dimly lit bedroom. The lack of light cast a mysterious aura over the room, but I could still make out her silhouette. Her body was curled up, her face buried in her knees as she clung to them tightly. As I approached, I noticed her ears were bright red and her shoulders trembling slightly.

A curious amusement welled up inside me as I observed her. She looked like a grade schooler who was first introduced to love.

Carrie didn't answer; instead, she buried her face further, avoiding my gaze. I let out a small sigh, settling myself beside her on the floor. Placing a comforting hand on her shoulder, I gently squeezed it and asked, "What's wrong?"

"You were waiting and hoping for this for a long time. Don't tell me that you changed your mind? You found out that Arthur is your mate... and now you're disappointed?"

A mischievous grin played on my lips as I teased her, "Oh no... Are you thinking of rejecting him?" I knew deep down that Carrie's bond with Arthur was special, there was nothing that could separate her from him. Still, a part of me couldn't resist teasing her about it.

Carrie's head shot up at my words, her eyes wide with a mix of surprise and urgency. With an emphatic shake of her head, she hastily replied, "No way!!! Arthur is my first love... He's my only love... the only one I want...! There's no way I'll reject him!" Her voice grew louder, filled with determination.
