Luna Aurora novel (Alpha Fenrir) novel Chapter 236

The days that followed were unbearable. Elyra and Dain barely spoke, each haunted by the memory of the kiss they’d shared. When their paths crossed, their eyes lingered for a moment too long before they both looked away, their guilt a tangible weight between them.

Matthew, perceptive as ever, noticed the tension. He watched them carefully during meals, his brow furrowing whenever their silence stretched on too long.

“What’s going on with you two?” he asked one evening, his voice firm.

“Nothing,” Elyra replied quickly, too quickly, avoiding his gaze.

“Just school stuff,” Dain added, his tone clipped.

Neither of them knew how to move forward, but they both knew one thing for certain: whatever was between them couldn’t stay buried for long.
