Chapter 134: Chapter 134
"You can put me in the cell for it or even banish me from the pack as a punishment. I don't deserve anyone's love. Mommy kept telling me to talk calmly after reaching the pack, but... but I didn't listen to her." She said, and tears escaped from her eyes. "Only if I would have listened to her, then this wouldn't have happened."
Calvin looked at her in shock. Five years old wanted to go behind bars and was suggesting him to kick her out of the pack to redeem her mistake because she was thinking that it was her mistake. But it wasn't her mistake in the first place. He agreed that she shouldn't have run away like that, but how could he blame her when is he being an adult, didn't handle the situation maturely?
Then she was just a pup who just wanted her father's happiness by running away from him.
"If you want punishment for this mistake, then you will get one," Calvin spoke strictly. He knew that until and unless she wouldn't get punished for what she did, she wouldn't be able to forgive herself and for a pup of her age, blaming herself for her mother's state wasn't healthy for her mind.
"But your punishment doesn't include throwing you out of the pack or sending you into the cell." He paused before continuing, "Your punishment is that you will have to listen to your mother's words ALWAYS without going against her."
"I will. I will." Roselet nodded her head and cried while Calvin wiped her tears. "But she will have to be awake from her deep sleep and start speaking to me so that I get a chance to follow all her words." She added before asking.
"She will be all right, won't she, daddy?" Roselet asked that question about which Calvin didn't have an answer. Roselet hugged him after watching him silent. "I promise you, daddy, that now I won't ask you two to stay together once she is awake. You were right. Not all pups get a chance to stay with their parents. I don't want to learn this lesson the hard way. It will be better that she stays safe and sound away from here instead of staying here and falling in danger all the time."
Calvin didn't like the way Roselet was giving up on her tiny little dream of staying with her real parents.
A large part of him was positive that the moment Ethlyn would be awake from her beauty sleep. She would LEAVE him for what he had done, and the fact that Roselet wasn't going to help him either was going to make his situation more difficult than he thought.

'Alpha, she is awake.' Hearing this from Zordan, Calvin quickly completed bathing, which he hadn't done in the last five days. Calvin barely used to leave Ethlyn's side because he wanted to be beside her so that when she would open her eyes, she would find him beside him, waiting for her.
But today, everyone kicked him away from Ethlyn, saying that the reason Ethlyn wasn't able to come out from her deep sleep was that whenever she used to try to wake up, her plan to wake up used to get canceled by smelling such an unbreathable scent around her.
'If I would have known that she would be awake only when I would take a bath, then I wouldn't have taken so much time.' Calvin thought, and immediately he realized that he didn't feel Cinder's presence even if Ethlyn was awake.
'Does that mean something...' Keanu couldn't even complete the sentence and ran as fast as he could to reach Ethlyn.
