#Chapter14 CLARA
Twenty years ago…
Samuel smiles gently at me. /"You’re right, Clara./" We are silent for a moment when he breaks the silence by asking me a question out of the blue. /"Are you excited to find your mate?/"
/"Are you kidding?/" And it’s like a dam has been broken. /"Of course, I’m excited. I just can’t wait for my birthday to come. I have dreamed of meeting my mate since I was five years old and could understand what mates were. I imagine how he would look how he would be, how in love we would be, how devoted we would be to each other./" I clasp my hands in front of my heart. /"I can’t explain it to you. No words I have can explain my anticipation to you./"
/"I think you have done a pretty good job./" He smiles at me and I blush under his gaze.
