Chapter 323: Flashback - 63

Silas’s POV

"Believe me, it won’t come true. And even if it did, I will still protect you. Don’t worry," Damon replied.

Hearing his reply, my heart became heavy again. That uneasy feeling was circling in my stomach, telling me that something bad was gonna happen—but what, I had no idea. But I think I should try to forget about that curse, just like Damon said. It was nothing more than just a ghost’s bullshit.

His fingers were rubbing on my palm, which made me snap out of my thoughts and glance at him. His eyes were already on me.

"Why are you thinking so much about that? Just forget about everything."

I nod and try to distract myself by looking around and looking at him. But my mind was repeating everything that had happened.

"Uh, yes, Damon. Why did that Alpha come to meet you earlier in the evening when me and Orian came out from your studies? An Alpha came to meet you, didn’t he?"

I asked. I’d remembered that he had said he had an appointment with Damon. I know it’s not my place to ask, but I wanted to know the reason.

And when Damon told me why that Alpha had come, I was shocked. Damon said that Alpha’s name was Krivan, and he had come to say that his pack was planning to rebel against Damon’s pack. Which is really unexpected. When he himself came to tell, I think he just wanted to show that he is not with them, he is on Damon’s side. That’s why he was exposing the truth about his own family.

"But are you sure he was telling the truth, or was it just a personal grudge against his family?" I asked.

"I don’t know. And the way he was talking, it looked like he was serious. Still, I have sent a few of my spies there to see if he was telling the truth or not. The spies will inform me as soon as they find out that the pack is preparing to rebel."

After that, when we reached my room, Orian was not there. Now I am worried about Orian and Meyer too. Why didn’t they both come back yet? It’s already so late.

"Damon, do you think something happened to Orian and Meyer?"

I was worried, and I was getting panicked. And I think Damon also sensed that.

"Orian and Meyer are not children. Keep that in mind. They have gone on a date. It means they will come back eventually."

Damon tried to comfort me with his words, but yeah, it was a little hard for me to stay calm when I know my brother didn’t come back. If I had known where he is right now, what he is doing, then I would have been calm as hell.

Damon even grabbed me by my shoulders and made me sit down on the bed.

"Just take a rest and don’t think about anything, Silas. I will go and tell the guards to check where Orian and Meyer are. Don’t worry."

I nod, and Damon made me lie down on the bed. As I did, he sat down beside me while patting my head.

There was some magic in his hand because as he was petting my head, I started to feel sleepy.

"Why don’t you lie down beside me too?"

I offered Damon because he was also looking tired, but he wasn’t saying that he would rest. That’s why—if he lies down beside me, he can take rest. But I don’t think he’s gonna do that.

But to my surprise... "Sure." He agreed and eventually lay down beside me. It was really unexpected. He covered both of us with a quilt. And soon enough, we both fell asleep in each other’s arms.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already morning—meaning the next day. I thought I had just slept for a few minutes, and it’s already the next day. Man, I want to sleep more. And just then, I noticed Damon sleeping beside me. And Orian was not in the room. Seeing him not there, my heart skipped a beat. I started to shake Damon.

"Damon, wake up! Wake up! Orian is not here! He didn’t come back last night! Something must have happened to him!"

"Dear Silas, Orian and Meyer did come last night, but you were sleeping so soundly that Orian went to sleep in Meyer’s room."

I felt lively again after knowing that Orian had come back, and he is with Meyer right now. But it was nice to sleep with Damon, and I lay down again.

"Are you still sleepy?" he asked while taking me into his arms.

"Yeah, because it was already so late last night when we went to sleep. That’s why my eyes are itching right now. I want to sleep more."

But just then, I remembered about Lysander. How is he? He is fine, right? So I opened my eyes.

"What about Lysander?"

"He is fine, don’t worry. I went to meet him a few hours ago, and he was all fine."

Thank God, Lysander is all fine now. And when did he leave? He was with me when I was sleeping. Did he leave from here while leaving me alone sleeping in this room? What if I had woken up? What if I had a nightmare? Well, since I can’t be more childish, that’s why I buried those thoughts inside me deep down. Then I noticed Damon had closed his eyes.

"Damon, don’t fall asleep. It’s already morning." That’s why I shook him. Of course, we can’t fall asleep now. Yes, I can, but he can’t.

"But you are so sleepy, right? So let’s sleep together."

But then again, when he was offering to sleep, why would I say no? Because I am a lazy person. I closed my eyes—before saying yes or no to him, I literally fell asleep.

...

"He’s looking cute while sleeping, isn’t he?"

"Look at his hands, they are so small compared to mine."

"Why are you even comparing your hand with Silas’s?"

Voices echoed through my ears, disturbing my sleep, and I slightly opened my eyes and saw... Theron, Kael, and Lysander were on the bed beside me—and Damon too. Kael was holding my hand while comparing it to his, and Lysander was telling him not to do that.

I sat up while looking at all of them. "What are you all doing here?" I asked.

"Silas, morning," Kael said, and out of nowhere, he pressed his lips against mine. And before I could understand or say anything, his tongue slipped in and started to move without wasting a second.

"Nghhh~~" He is such a good kisser that I was melting in that kiss, but just then I remembered that those four were also there, so I pushed Kael away from myself.

And turned my head behind and saw Damon, Lysander, and Theron were looking at me with shocked faces, which was really embarrassing. I should have pushed Kael away from me when he first pressed his lips against mine.

"Silas, I am really sorry about my behavior. I hurt you," Lysander said.

And because he apologized, everyone’s attention went on him. I stretched my hand and grabbed his hand.

"Lysander, I am not mad at you now because you didn’t do anything wrong, so don’t worry. And it was all that ghost’s fault, not yours," I said those words while thinking carefully because I can’t say anything that would make Lysander feel more guilty. That’s why I was choosing my words very carefully.

"But Silas, I am still guilty," his face was down as he said this. And I felt really pity for him, so I let go of his hand and pulled him to me instead and hugged him.

"There-there, my boy, don’t worry. It’s nothing, and you are fine now. That’s all that matters, you know."

After comforting him for a moment, I thought everyone would forget what they had seen moments ago, but just then—

"Silas, I didn’t realize you were so close to Kael that you are sharing a passionate kiss. But I didn’t kiss you yet," Damon said.

I was sitting there after breaking the hug, and hearing that made me feel guilty in my stomach.

"He had kissed me too," Theron said in the middle. Why did he say that now when they are already angry with me for kissing Kael?

"Wait, you kissed Theron too? Then what about me and Lysander? Don’t you want to kiss us?" Damon said.

"It’s not like I don’t want to kiss you. It’s just that we didn’t really get the chance to be alone and become this close."

Well, it was true because when me and Damon were alone in that room, he had become a monk and was giving me a lecture to not let any Alpha touch my body. And look at him now, asking me why I didn’t kiss him.

"Damon, if you want, I can kiss you now," I said in a teasing tone because I know he’s not gonna say yes.

"Yeah, sure, why not." My eyes widened hearing those words, and Damon moved closer to me. On my left side, Kael was sitting, and on my right side, Damon. Lysander was sitting right in front of me, and Theron was beside Lysander.
