Chapter 22

Rebecca walked out of the cabin. Her eyes were filled with confusion, and her head was filled with questions.
'Was that a warning from Simara? Why did she say that about her brother? Crysler is her mate. AND it is getting impossible for her to think anything bad about him. And the way he protected her. He knows how to respect a woman.' But still, Rebecca can not trust him. She needs to know, why is he here? What is his motive to be here in the pack? If she can not find it nor anyone else can find anything about Crysler.
Rebecca will go ask him directly, she doesn't have any other choice to get the truth. Rebecca heaved a deep sigh! Crysler went for a run in the woods earlier, he didn't come back. If Crysler has left the pack boundaries. Rebecca would have known but no he is still in her pack. Once he will come back, she will talk to him.
Rebecca sat on the front stairs of the house waiting for him. After half an hour, Rebecca saw Crysler coming towards the packhouse. He smiled looking at Rebecca.
"Luna!" He greeted.
"Crysler, I want to talk to you." She said. He nodded his head.
Rebecca grabbed his hand. Crysler starts walking beside her, they came into the house and then start going towards Rebecca's office. Crysler didn't know, what she wants to talk about?
But the grip on his hand is rough. Rebecca felt the usual tingles of sparks with his touch. She stopped in front of the office door. She opened it and then came inside with him. She locked the door behind them. Rebecca left his hand and went to her seat.
Crysler was staring at Rebecca's face. He was standing near the door.
Her face was void of any expressions. But her eyes were telling a different story. It feels as if she has so many doubts about Crysler. She was looking down at her lap.
Crysler cleared his throat to grab her attention. She stares into his eyes to find them clouded with some unusual dilemmas.
"Crysler, come sit down." She motioned towards the chair. The table was in between the two chairs but Rebecca was feeling a little scared. She didn't know why she felt this fear?
Crysler walks ahead and then sat on the chair in front of Rebecca. He can still feel the scent in her office. It is the scent of Zach. He was here with her... Crysler controlled himself from growling.
'Should I ask him?' Rebecca thought inside her head but didn't say anything.
"Why are you here, Crysler?" She questioned.
Crysler noticed that she is not the sweet girl talking to him. It is the Luna of the pack. Rebecca shows many emotions. She is very kind and pure-hearted. But in here. At this time, she is talking in a very adept and static tone. There is not any emotion evident in her eyes.
Crysler stares at her for some time. She waited for an answer from him.
But Crysler didn't say anything. Rebecca saw his eyes fixed on something over her neck. She realised what it can be there, a red bruise or bite mark. Rebecca felt so embarrassed.
Unintentionally she moved her hand on her neck to hide the bruise from the earlier encounter with Zach. Crysler averted his gaze in another direction. He is hurt. He calmed down and then got up from the chair. Crysler turned around to move out of the office. But she called him.
"Crysler, wait," Rebecca said. He stopped and turned around to see her standing a few feet away from him.
"Crysler I am sorry," Rebecca said. Crysler looks at her eyes to find the soft look back.
"It's okay, Rebecca, Don't worry! I can understand the pain of someone very close treating you this bad. It will not be easy for you to forget the pain. But every wound will be healed with time." He said. Rebecca looked at his sad eyes.
"You wanted to know, why I am here. Rebecca, My whole life was so eventful. I was running all the time, I stopped trusting people. At certain times, I thought to kill myself. But after meeting you and coming to your pack. I thought I found peace. I realised I can hold on to someone, I realised that I can again trust someone. I don't want to hide it from you. But, I don't know if you will trust me or not. But, I have fallen in love with you." Crysler said. Rebecca looks so guilty.
"Crysler, I am sorry. I didn't mean to hurt you. But everybody around me is telling me, you are not good. But now I am feeling so terrible." She said. She moved ahead then grabbed his hands.
"Crysler, I never wanted to make you feel this way. This pack means so much to me. I had trouble making it strong enough to handle things. That is why I was worried." She mumbled emotionally.
It was Crysler's plan when Rebecca will trust him enough. It will be the time he will get all the pack information and details from her. So he can plan the attack. But, what will he do now? How will he handle this situation? He has to save this pack and this girl from Wolf Alpha.
"Crysler, I want to accept you in my pack. I want you and Simara to be a member of my pack. I want to give Simara a chance. I want to announce it to my pack on the full moon." Rebecca said.
Crysler moved her closer to him then hugged her tightly. He hid his face in the crook of her neck. He was finding peace in her embrace.
"Crysler, I don't want to force you into anything. You can tell me if you don't want it. I will wait till that time you will be ready to be a member." She whispered. Rebecca caressed his back. Her hands slid in his hair. Crysler stays with her for a few minutes and then moved away from her body. She was back to the sweet girl smiling and blushing.
"Thank you, Rebecca. It means a lot to me. I always wanted a mate that can understand me. I am so thankful that you are so considerate to understand me. I am ready to be a member." He said. Rebecca looked at him very innocently. A smile came upon her face.
