Chapter 109: Chapter 109

Greg laid me down on the bed as he searched in the closet for some pajamas. This man is unparalleled in kindness. When I think I'm hurting him and he feels it, I feel like a big shit. He took a little water and gently cleaned my body before changing me. He took my pajamas and put them on for me as well.

He's perfect in every way, he's nice to me, and in his words in the car, he'd do anything for me. For him even when I'm wrong I'm right in his eyes. Even if the world is against me, he will always be on my side even if he is alone against everyone.

I feel like a spoiled princess in his arms which is why I want to overcome my fear and tell him the truth. I saw him get up, switching and I straightened up quickly.

" Are you going somewhere?"

He turned and smiled at me coming to kiss my forehead.

" Yes, I'm sorry to leave you alone tonight but I have to go to a meeting. I am the master of the lycanthropes, I have called a meeting with the other pack leaders to begin the process of stopping this threat. It is certainly the work of a crank and one must put the hand on him."

I swallowed, lowering my head. I know this crank. Why can't I tell Greg what I know? Why then when it can be of great use to him? I started shaking as I sat cross-legged on the bed with my fists clenched on my thighs.

Greg looked at Sophia sadly, she still seemed to be in an internal struggle, he didn't want to put her in a difficult situation. She must know a lot of things that are beyond her, he would like to ask her to tell him everything but she seems scared by what she hides. Something or someone must put some pressure on her, she told him, she wants to tell him but she can't. He concluded that someone must be scaring her, that she was being blackmailed.

Jessy.

He clenched his jaw, Elias is on the heels of this loser, when he knows what he's up to and especially what he wants from his Sophia, he's going to eliminate this parasite.

He bent down, placing his hand on Sophia's.

" Baby... You don't have to worry. Don't think of anything but rest. It's been a rough day for you, don't worry, I'll handle everything."

I felt a sob being smothered in the back of my throat, I felt sick. Greg kissed me before walking away but before he got away from the bed, I stood up pulling his arm.

" Jessy... Jessy knows something... He is one of those who... You know these mutants they were created with... my cells... I mean I... listen…"

I lowered my head. I can no longer shut up and leave Greg in the dark. I'm sick of my cowardice, if it's Greg, I will and I can be honest.

" Sophia…"

I looked teary-eyed as I was shaking my heart out. I was afraid of what Greg would do after what I told him but I felt tired of all my Secrets.

I grabbed his shirt and started to stammer.

" I... I know... about what's going on... I have something to tell you about…"

Greg placed his hand over my mouth, surprising me.

Greg saw how Sophia was shaking and understood that it must be such a difficult subject that she was afraid of the repercussions. He suspects a lot of things and that would help him unravel a lot of the knots in this threat to the city. But he will never accept that Sophia suffers from it. If the truth puts her in this state, then she shouldn't tell him anything. Especially since he too is afraid to hear it, to hear what he dreads. He knows that when he knows the truth, there will be no turning back, the truth will not only be for him but will involve the whole town. And he knows exactly what he will do in this situation.

Another person would act otherwise but he will be panicked and will do anything so that this girl in his arms never suffers even if he attracts the wrath of the whole town.

Only Sophia matters.

All he wants is to never lose her. Yes, he prefers that she doesn't tell him anything, especially when she suffers from it so much. He'll just handle it and leave her out of it. She's been through enough of the pack stuff already, now he just wants to give her the peace and happiness she deserves.

" Don't force yourself. you don't have to tell me something difficult for you. Baby I've told you many times before, no matter what you are and what you've done. In my eyes you are the right one, I don't need you to apologize, to apologize for being who you are, because I love you with everything you have and what you are. No matter what you will do, your sins, your vices, and your remorse, abandon them because I will bear them for you. I will be the one who committed them. You can rely on me, I will never judge you for what you have done and what you will do, you are free to use me as much as you want, I will get rid of what bothers you, the main thing is that you are happy. If you are, then I don't care what happened. Honey, I put this city at your disposal, do what you want without ever worrying about anything."

I felt my eyes cloud with tears as I gritted my teeth.

" Don't say such things otherwise I might take them at face value."

"That's what I want."

I smiled before calming down, either I know that Greg suspects a lot of things about me. I also know that he wants to cover me at all costs, that I don't talk about who I am. He doesn't want to hear anything so he doesn't have to make difficult decisions if one day it leaks. We don't know who could listen to us, especially in this house where the spies of the elders are legion and Greg knows it. I smiled, putting my fingers on his lips before brushing them on his face.

" Or if you don't want to know, I'm not forcing you, but at least know one thing. I'm on your side no matter what you know about me and learn. For me too, there is only you, everything I will do, anything, I will do it first for you. You don't need to overwork yourself because I'm here to support you. We are a team you know."

Greg smiled, he suspects Sophia must be up to something. He would like to stop her but her determined gaze shows him that she has already made up her mind.

" Just be careful and don't be reckless."

" It goes without saying for you too."

They kissed and he left to go to his meeting. For my part, I sat down deciding to help Greg in my way.
