Chapter 7

Elvis's POV

Looking at Lydia and the man laughing and giggling, I was so angry that I hammered my fist into the tree beside me, and the leaves fell down in droves, almost causing me to be spotted by the Glory Pack on the training ground.

This was the fourth day I'd come to the Glory Pack training ground to observe Lydia, and I'd lost count of the number of times Lydia had smiled at the man.

I already knew that the man was Lydia's mentor and that he is the beta of the Glory Pack, but seriously, was it really necessary for a mentor to be so close to his student?

"Are you sure you're secretly watching Lydia and not spying on her?" Elvo's annoying voice started again, "I'm tired of hiding with you every day, can't you just go and apologize to her and just say you were wrong and beg her to forgive you?"

"What? Apologize to her?" I furrowed my eyebrows strangely, "Do you think I need to apologize to her?"

"What are you stubbornly insisting about? You're obviously dying of guilt inside." Elvo immediately saw through my pretended composure and directly pierced my disguise.

Well, Elvo was right, I did feel guilty.

I hung my head in loss, "And Larissa seems to be waiting for me to apologize to Lydia, don't you think?"

The first day I came to observe Lydia, I was spotted by Larissa, but she didn't drive me away, she just told me not to be spotted by other Glory Pack warriors.

"I can't think of any other excuse than that for an Alpha of one pack to put up with a future Alpha of another pack coming to spy on their warrior training every day."

"I said observation, not peeping." I corrected Elvo.

"Dwelling on the word doesn't make sense. Quickly, Lydia seems to be heading to the Deep Forest Lake."

After hearing Elvo's words, I turned my attention back to the training ground, where there was no longer any sign of Lydia, and a wolf with dazzling red fur was running towards the entrance to the Deep Forest.

I hurriedly transformed into a wolf and followed Lydia, while telling Elvo, "If there is a war between two wolves, Lydia will be the first to suffer, she is too dazzling. I think she'd better dye her fur to a more normal color."

Lydia's POV

This was the first time I entered the Deep Forest alone, the tall trees blocked the sun, although it was still noon outside, but as soon as I entered the Deep Forest, it was as if the time had come to night, the sun did not even penetrate the leaves.

It was so quiet and dark that I could even hear my own breathing and heartbeat clearly.

Suddenly, a somewhat abrupt gasp came into my ears, and although it was very quiet, it seemed quite clear to me. Since being able to transform comfortably, my sense of hearing had been enhanced quite a bit.

I could tell that the gasp was not from Joseph, nor from any of the Glory Pack fighters I had fought.

The unfamiliar gasp fired my alertness to the max, and I sped myself up slightly, the voice still following me closely.

Someone was following me.

I saw a thick bush ahead of me and accelerated behind it, ready to give the stalker a surprise attack.

Subtle footsteps sounded, and the man was already close to the bush where I was hiding. When I was ready, I crouched down slightly and then jumped hard, ready to give the man a hard claw to the neck.

I saw a pure black wolf who also looked up at me while dodging my attacks with great speed, those turquoise blue eyes glowing in the gloom.

It was Elvis, and as soon as I saw those eyes, I recognized him.

Not to be exaggerated, Elvis' wolf was also quite handsome, with his athletic body and toned torso exuding a strong hormonal aura.

I had to say that although Elvis and I had a rough time, he was really hot. Especially when he obviously has such a sexy body and yet he's looking at me with those innocent blue eyes.

Damn, how did I get so caught up in Elvis' good looks again that I forgot what he had done? I mentally disgusted myself, then turned around, ready to leave.

"Lydia, wait." Elvis nimbly stopped in front of me, that powerful wolf tail wagging slightly, "I need to talk to you."

"Oh, so you still know me as Lydia, I thought my name with you was 'Miss Liar'." I was nonchalantly sarcastic about the hurt Elvis had inflicted on me.

"Look, I'm really sorry, and I only just found out what your adoptive parents did to you. I apologize to you for the mistake I made at the time." Elvis finished the sentence with great speed, and then looked straight at me with those blue eyes, "You'll forgive me, won't you?"

To be honest, his actions and what he said really scared me. I didn't expect Elvis to apologize to me, after all, he's always had that arrogant look about him, thinking he's never wrong.

But what's the use of that? The damage he did to me has already been done, could an apology heal all the past? Was a "sorry" to remove all the despair I was crying to grab his pants?

"Good." I deliberately coldly replied to Elvis, "From now on I will not take one step into the territory of Dawn Pack, and I hope you will not come to Glory Pack either, we should never get involved with each other again in the future."

After saying that, I walked around the black wolf and went forward, but Elvis did not stay where he was as I hoped, he followed, following me at a distance of one meter.

Walking to the edge of Deepwood Lake, I finally couldn't stand it anymore, I turned around and glared at Elvis viciously, "Why do you keep following me? Is the future Alpha of Dawn Pack a pervert who likes to stalk people?"

Elvis looked at me with sincere eyes and didn't refute the sarcasm in my words, "We used to be mate, I don't believe you can completely abandon our previous love affair so quickly. I can feel my heart beating violently when I look at you, don't you?"

"How dare you bring this up, do I need to remind you how you rejected me and completely cut off my hopes?" I looked at Elvis like he was a fool.

"I'm really sorry, Lydia. But since we would have chosen each other, it means that we are very compatible, doesn't it? Even if I reject you, I can still feel the connection between us." Elvis didn't pay attention to my mockery and just focused on his words, "Can you give me one more chance?"

I bet this was definitely the most humble look of Elvis had ever been.

Even so, I would never forget the countless nights when I would wake up from my dreams with tears in my eyes.

In my dreams, Elvis said over and over again, "I reject you to be my mate."

That had become a nightmare for me. I had no way to completely get rid of the pain of being rejected by Elvis, and I certainly wouldn't forgive him so easily.

I gave up trying to communicate with Elvis, he didn't even listen to what I had to say and just thought about how well we were getting along.

I turned around, ready to leave the place, but suddenly I felt a slip under my feet, then I lost my balance completely and fell into the Deep Forest Lake. It had rained only yesterday, and the Deep Forest was full of mud. I had been very careful along the way, and if Elvis hadn't interfered, I wouldn't have fallen into the lake at all.

Being wrapped in the cold water of the lake was also a part of my nightmare. Suddenly, I lost all ability to struggle and had to let the lake swallow me deeper.

I closed my own eyes tightly as the memory of falling into the waterfall a month ago kept appearing from my mind, bringing me back to that night of despair over and over again.

Nina kept saying something in my head, but I couldn't concentrate on what she was actually saying.

"So, am I going to die here today?"

I felt like I was about to lose my breath as my brain was not clear due to lack of oxygen, and I began to wonder who else would be grieving for my death besides Larissa.

Before I could come up with a name, I felt my hand being grabbed by a person and then he took me into his arms.

Even in the cold lake, his body temperature was still very high, I could not control myself and subconsciously buried into his arms.

Suddenly, he reached out and cupped my chin, two soft things came to my lips, I opened my eyes and saw Elvis's blue eyes, his gaze was full of concern.

Soon, I realized what he was doing. He was kissing me!

I reached out to push him away, but in the river, restraining myself from thinking about the desperate past had exhausted all my strength, not to mention that my strength was not as strong as Elvis. I couldn't push him away, so I let his nimble tongue pry open my teeth and give me air.

Our breaths mingled and I was actually a little fascinated, as if we were supposed to be so close.

After realizing that Elvis was saving me, I gave up resisting and obediently swam towards shore with him.

His lips never left mine. By the end of the day, I had almost forgotten we were still in the water and was almost about to indulge in his kiss.

Luckily, we finally left the cold lake before I couldn't resist responding to him.

I lay helplessly on the grass breathing fresh air, completely ignoring the mud after the rain to dirty my clothes, after all, I had been soaked, and then a little mud was no big deal.

Oxygen gradually filled my brain, and I then reacted to what had just happened.

Elvis and I kissed!

I felt my face burn a little, and I guessed I might have blushed.

I believed that whoever was in this situation would be as embarrassed as I was.

Oh my God, I couldn't even look Elvis in the eye at the point!
