16 Mixed Signals

~Tamia-

Sylvester looked handsome, laughing, and I wanted to tell him to laugh more, but it wasn’t in my place.

“Of course I know you can ride, Green-eyes. I meant the horse.” He said, and I smiled at him.

“Not an expert, but I can survive,” I confessed, and he smiled.

I wore the necessary gear and mounted the horse. Sylvester went ahead, and I followed him.

The land was beautiful, and I felt a rush I hadn’t felt in a while as we raced the horses through the land. With the way he was riding, he was heading somewhere.

We finally got to a cliff where the alpines were visible, and the sight was beautiful.

The snow-covered mountains were a sight, and Sylvester unmounted his horse. I did the same, and he secured them by the only tree on the cliff.

“What do you think?” He asked, pointing to the mountains in the distance, and I smiled.

“They are beautiful. The mountains back home aren’t this beautiful,” I confessed, and he smiled at me.

The breeze brushed his hair, and he looked breathtaking.

“I felt you have been couped up in the estate for long; I thought this would help,” he said to me, and I was stunned at the gesture. However insignificant he tried to make it seem, the fact remains that he did this for

“Thank you, it is beautiful,” I said, and then he came to me and cupped my face in his palms.

“Not as beautiful as you are,” he said, and I was stunned by his confession.

He smiled and looked away. Those words were hard for him to say, but he said them anyway, and there was no taking it back; I appreciated it.

“Thank you,” I said with a breathy voice, and he smiled.

He stood beside me and looked ahead.

“I have sent the letter,” He said, and I looked at him. I knew it was difficult for him, but I was grateful he did it.

“Other than Leo, did you date anyone?” He asked me, and I shook my head.

“No, he was my first,” I confessed, and he looked at me and smiled.

“As beautiful as you are. I thought you would have a long list,” He said, and I smiled.

“Well, I did not have the opportunity for that. We started dating when I was seventeen and married when I was nineteen.” I said.

“I see. That explains a lot,” He said and gently touched my hand.

“Do you want to sit on the cliff?” He asked, and I was scared.

“Goddess, no, not with a weakened wolf,” I said, and he nodded.

“I felt it when you joined my pack. Your wolf isn’t so strong anymore,” he said out of concern, and I nodded.
