It has been a couple of days since Erick had tutored Remi. And to his happiness, it seems like Amber's parents were slowly starting to trust him again. That one evening, he was done tutoring Remi. And seeing how exhausted the little boy looked, Erick thought it was definitely time to end the tutoring. He did not want to tire him out.
Giving Remi some space and breather to himself, Erick told him that he can go back to his room and rest.
To his surprise, Remi suddenly has a lot of energy as he jumped down from his seat and walked quickly to his room, saying that it was time to play.
For a 'sickly' kid like him, Erick was surprised but pleased to see that he was still such an energetic child.
Just as the boy left the room, Erick could feel Dane rousing in his mind.
'Dane?' he enquired in his mind.
'Erick, you need to bring that boy to the Cairin pack,' Dane told him.
Erick frowned. 'What's wrong? Is it because of the shifter's bite?' he asked again.
Dane murmured an agreement in his mind. 'Yes, it appears that the effect is festering much faster than expected,' he said solemnly.
'You can sense that?' Erick asked in surprise.
Dane murmured another agreement. 'There's already madness slowly stirring inside him.'
'And you think the Cairin pack will be able to heal him?' Erick asked, feeling a bit apprehensive.
'Yes. Among the packs that I've encountered, they have the best healing properties of a shifter. And that young female shifter has a strong healing skill in her. She should be able to cure him,' Dane said.
'What if it backfires?' Erick asked again as he recalled Latham's side-effects.
'It won't,' Dane reassured firmly.
Erick kept quiet as he pondered on how to tackle this situation. He had just gained a bit of Amber's parents' trust after he started tutoring Remi. He wasn't sure whether they would be able to accept the idea of having another shifter healing their son when it was caused by one.
He sat down on his seat as he held his head in his hands, trying to figure out a way.
While he was lost in thoughts, Amber just happened to pass by the study room. Hearing that there were no noises inside, she poked her head in. She tilted her head in confusion when she saw Erick in that posture, as if there was something that was bothering him.
Before Amber could surprise him, Erick had looked up and saw her. He greeted her with a huge smile, earning a roll eye from Amber.
Erick smiled with a confused look on his face. "What's wrong, sweets?" he asked as he reached out for her hand and pulled her closer to him.
Amber rolled her eyes again and kept quiet. She forgot that he has a strong sense of scent, hence why he was able to know she was here.
She then recalled his expression was before she approached and asked him what had happened.
Erick was surprised by her question as he did not expect that she would catch him out. He gave her a weak smile and contemplated whether he should be truthful or not.
Amber narrowed her eyes at him. And then smacked his arm as she mockingly threatened him. "You'd better tell me or else…" she slowly warned.
Erick laughed. It seems like he could not hide anything from her. He then patiently explained to him of what Dane had told him and what he should do. And he also told her about how he was worried of her parents' reactions to their suggestion.
Amber nodded, understanding his point of view. Her parents haven't fully trusted him and if he was to suggest this to them, he might break their trust once more. It was still fragile at the moment.
The two were quiet, both still thinking of a way on how to make her parents listen to Erick's suggestion when Amber suddenly had a little fright of her own. She looked down and saw Erick rubbing her hand against his cheek. She rolled her eyes and tried to pull away.
But it seems that a shifter's strength should not be underestimated because no matter how hard she pulled her hand, she could not get free. In the end, she gave up and let him be.
Just then an idea occurred to Erick as he abruptly turned around in his seat and grabbed hold of Amber's two hands. "I have a great idea!" he exclaimed.
Amber tilted her head in confusion. "What is it?" she asked, curious to know what was his answer.
"We could ask Roel for help!"
"Roel?" Amber repeated, looking more confused. What does Roel have to do with her parents?
Erick then quickly explained how he and Roel once 'stumbled' upon her father at the hardware store and how her father really liked him and all. Perhaps if Roel was the one who talked with Amber's father, he might have softened up a bit.
Amber let out an 'ahh' sound, as if she had just recalled something.
It was now Erick's turn to be confused. "What is it, sweets?" he asked curiously.
Amber giggled before she told him of how her father told her and her mother about him meeting Erick and Roel at the hardware store. And yes, Eren liked Roel so much that he suggested to Amber whether she could break up with Erick and be with Roel, instead.
Amber giggled again as she thought how funny it was, even though it wasn't at that time.
Erick frowned as he digested those words. Inside him, Dane was snarling in anger at the audacity that Amber's father has to suggest someone else for his mate. Even if that someone else was his brother.
Seeing how her mate was quietly seething in anger, she quickly tried to placate him, rubbing her thumbs at the back of his hands. "It was just a joke," she reassured. "You know I won't agree to that. You're the only one for me. Do you not trust me?"
Erick blinked his eyes furiously and looked at her. He then gave her the sweetest smile he ever gave and said softly, "I do. Trust you forever with my life," he vowed.
"Then believe in me, alright?" Amber said softly.
Erick smiled gently and nodded.
"So what's this with Roel?" Amber asked, changing the topic.
Erick smiled again, this time, at Amber's subtle way of changing the topic. He then talked about how they could ask for help from Roel to help talk with her parents.
She listened and nodded, thinking that this was a great idea.
Now, they only have to ask Roel to help them with this. The better they heal Remi, the better!
