Silas' POV~
It feels so sad… and so painfully hard… to let go of Zane.
Yes, I told him I liked him but at the same time, I had also made up my mind to stay away from him because the last thing I ever want to do is hurt him.
There's no cooking competition or whatever else I claimed. That was just a lie. I only said it because I didn't want to disappear without at least giving Zane some kind of explanation.
The truth is I'm already the number one chef in the entire pack. My name is known in every kitchen and every household. I didn't need a competition.
What I needed was space, distance.
I had to get away from the packAway from Zane just for a while.
Maybe in that time, I'd finally begin to heal, the ache in my chest would be gone, maybe I'd learn to love him… from afar.
But it's hard, harder than I ever imagined.
Because Zane is literally the best thing that has ever happened to me.
