Chapter 140: Perhaps In Another Microcosm
[TAMIKO]
Listening to his best friend, Tamiko felt pride and sadness gush over him with equal measure. He wasn’t sure what Danny was aiming for at the moment, but the sincerity of the emotions in his voice made Tamiko want to lean into the hope that they were fine.
Granted, Tamiko was sure nothing would ever be the same between them because he had killed Dalya and their father, but he hoped that all would be well.
It was a leap of fate and not even faith, because sometimes even faith took a step back to let fate do its thing. Tamiko wanted to pull Danny into a hug, but he couldn’t.
He wanted to hold onto Danny but he also couldn’t because there was no telling where they stood with each other. Was it hate? Or still, love? Was Danny’s defense of him something he was pretending about or was it genuine?
Oh, how Tamiko had so many questions, even as Kosta stood aside to let the two talk.
"What do you want, Danny?" Tamiko asked at the same time that Danny spoke worriedly.
"You look thin, little brother, are you okay?"
If there was anything the young Lycan prince had expected from his former best friend, this was never it, because of the rift that Tamiko had clearly drawn between them. However, despite all that, the young prince couldn’t help but wish they were okay.
Danny had been his best friend for the longest time. Danny had truly cared for him even when he thought he was undeserving. Danny had nursed him to health when he was weak and didn’t even know that he had Lycan powers.
The young Belova had been there for Tamiko through thick and thin.
