Chapter 167

167 The forever I dream of … Lyla I missed you , I murmured to Nathan for maybe the thousandth time since he arrived , placing my head gently on his shoulders .

I hadnt realized how much I missed him until now .

I missed you more , he replied , squeezing my hand gently .

You look beautiful as always and … he paused for a minute , running his eyes the length of my body .

Different but in a good way .

Did I miss out on anything ? Im sure youve been busy , too I didnt change .

I said quickly , steering the topic of my physical appearance .

Since Nymeris manifested herself to me , Ive gotten many compliments about my appearance .

Although , I havent felt Nymeris for a few days now , but I wanted to attribute it to the stress that came with all the Harvest Moon Festival .

The first thing I would do as soon as I go back to Blue Ridge was to learn everything I need to about having a wolf .

Learn everything Im supposed to learn about my wolf .

I was dying to run through the forest with the moon shining brightly above us and the wind in my fur ….

And yes , Ive .

Been busy , I continued , grinning .

But its been good .

I enjoy working , the apprentices are doing great too , and everythings on track for the festival : He smiled .

Im so proud of you , Lyla .

Every day … and Im lucky that a few months from now , well be together forever hopefully .

I smiled .

I cant wait .

We continued walking , talking and trying to catch up with lots of things .

I noticed it was just my sister Clarissa walking a distance behind us , but I didnt want to think too much of it .

I wanted to ask about my mother and all , but still , I was afraid I would ruin the mood .

Perhaps later .

because Moreso , I felt a lightness in my heart that I hadnt felt in weeks , and I knew it was b Nathan was here .

As we neared the central square , I noticed Nanny was watching us from a distance .

Her expression was unreadable , but I waved to her like a small child , earning a sad smile in return .

Nanny has been acting strange for some days now .

I would wake up to find her watching me intently by my bedside ; most times , her eyes were swollen with unshed tears ; at other times , I saw sadness in them .

All attempts to find out what could be the problem always end in the same thing … silence on her part .
