Chapter 301

Catherine's POV

I reached out and held my head.

Blake immediately got worried. "What's wrong? Headache again?"

I shook my head. "No. Blake, would you believe me if I told you what happened?"

"Yes," Blake said in a low voice. He looked at me firmly. "But you must tell me the truth."

"I will. Something did happen between me and Leo, but it wasn't like what you thought." I looked at Blake nervously. I was afraid that he would be angry.

"What is it?" Blake's face was gloomy.

I plucked up my courage and said, "He did tell me that he had feelings for me before. But please don't get it wrong. Nothing ever happened between us. I always think of him as a friend."

"He told you he had feelings for you? When?" His body was tense, and his voice suddenly lowered. It took all his strength to get the question out.

Blake was trying his best to press his anger. I was worried. I wanted to hug him and comfort him.

When my fingers touched his, I found that his fingers were tightly clenched, and he was already on the verge of snapping.

"Blake, don't be angry, OK? I know I shouldn't have kept this from you. Leo and I are only friends, and we will only be friends. He has already found his mate."

"Why didn't you tell me Sunny was hired as his girlfriend?" Blake was smart. He always spotted the clue and got to the truth.

Even I could tell something was wrong between Leo and Sunny, let alone Blake.

To my surprise, Blake went straight to the point. I couldn't help but tremble.

"I'm sorry. I should have told you. I was just afraid that you would be disappointed after you knew the truth. The thought that you might get the wrong idea was killing me." I didn't know what else to say. I could only apologize to him.

"Cathy, I am very disappointed. You are my mate. I never thought you would lie to me after all we've been through." Blake's voice was thick with loss.

I trembled in fear. I could see the sadness in his eyes. He was so fragile right now. I felt as if someone was squeezing my heart.

"If you hurt him, you will suffer too," Eva reminded me.

"Blake, it wasn't my intention to lie to you. I was just so afraid. I was afraid that I might hurt

you. Please believe me. Leo did nothing out of the line. He also wanted to put it behind him," I explained it incoherently, only to replace that my lips were trembling, and my words weren't convincing at all.

I did not know what else I should say to stop him from being mad. What could I say to let him realize that everything had been settled after the Moon Goddess chose him to be my mate?

I was very worried about him. Blake hated people lying to him. Not to mention that person was me. It might be too much for him.

I prayed for help from the Moon Goddess.

Suddenly, Blake reached out his hand and pinched my chin. His hand was icy cold.

He kissed my lips with anger. At that moment, he even made me feel that he was going to eat me alive.

I pictured a lot of scenes in my mind. I thought Blake would be furious, berate me for cheating, or be disappointed in me that he would never speak to me again.

I never thought that he would kiss me right now.

By the time Blake let go of me, my lips were numb. He warned me in a hoarse voice, "If you ever lie to me again, I won't forgive you. Got it?"

Finally, I could breathe.

"Yes. I promise," I nodded and promised him.

"Let's go down. It's time for dinner." Blake pulled my hand.

I still felt uneasy. "Will you pick on Leo? Don't blame him, OK? He has been kind to me. He never crossed the line. And he knew already that he shouldn't have. Give him some time to come around, OK?"

Blake's face darkened again.

"You still care about him so much, don't you?" Blake said angrily.

I shook my head quickly. "It's nothing like that. You two are brothers. I hate to see you at each other's throats because of me."

"I am the Lycan King, and I'm tolerant. Don't worry. I can tell that Leo is working hard to deal with this. I won't blame him. I only want him to remember his place and not cross the line again." Blake calmed down.

I believed that Blake was a very tolerant werewolf. He was a decent man. Though he acted tough in front of people, he was devoted and gentle to his family.

"Will you talk to him about this?" I asked anxiously.

"Yes," Blake said. "Right after dinner."

I really hoped that they could talk in peace.

"Alright. I'll be glad if you can work things out." I wouldn't try to say more, or things would get worse.

I blamed myself when I saw the sadness and disappointment in Blake's eyes.

He loved me so much, yet I hid it from him for so long. Anyone would be sad.

After dealing with this, Blake looked calm again.

We walked downstairs.

As we came down, we saw Leo and Sunny sitting stiffly in the living room.

Meanwhile, the doors of the elevator opened. Noah and Hedwig walked out with Patricia and Emerson.

Dinner was ready, and we sat at the table and began to eat.

The atmosphere was not so bad and was somehow harmonious. Thanks to Noah and

Hedwig.

Patricia and I were busy watching Noah and Hedwig finish the food on their plates.

Hedwig was picky and wouldn't eat any fat.

Hedwig picked up a piece of meat with her fork and did not know where to put it.

"Give it to me." Blake handed over his plate.

Hedwig immediately put the meat on his plate. Then she smiled sweetly and said, "Thank

you, Daddy!"

I breathed a sigh of relief. It was a peaceful dinner.

After dinner, Leo and Sunny came up with an excuse to leave.

I anxiously looked back and forth between Blake and Leo.

"Leo, let's take a walk outside," Blake stopped Leo.

Leo's expression was a little stiff.

"Blake, what's that about?" Leo sounded uneasy.

"Let's talk outside." After Blake finished speaking, he turned around and walked out.

Leo did not follow Blake, Patricia urged, "Go and talk to Blake." Leo hesitated for a moment, and then he followed Blake out.
