Counterback of the Despised Luna by Diana West

Chapter 160 SOS Caden tried to send Yale his location, but the message didn't go through, as expected.

A wave of disappointment washed over me.

95% Finished Caden put his phone away and held my hand. He said with unwavering determination, "No matter what, as long as we're together, everything will be fine." His palm was warm, as if he was transferring his strength to me.

An idea strucksuddenly. "I have a way!" "Hmm?" Caden looked confused.

I took off my necklace and held it tightly.

It was a birthday gift from Grandpa on my 16th birthday.

At that time, Grandpa smiled atand said, “Rosie, I had this necklace custom-made just for look ordinary, but it has a very special purpose." I was confused back then. I took over the necklace and asked, "What purpose?" Grandpa pointed at the pendant and said, "Do you see the plum blossom here?" you. It may I looked at the plum blossom engraving on the necklace, but still couldn't understand what was so special about it.

Grandpa explained, “This is a signal transmitter and the plum blossom is the switch. If you're ever in danger, just press the switch and I'll receive the distress signal. No matter where you are, I'll cto rescue you." I had happily put on that necklace at the time, didn't take his words too seriously.

After all, there were very few people in this world who could actually harm me.

Over the years, I had never tried it.

But Grandpa had spoken with such confidence, so it might be useful.

I just didn't know whether it would work at sea.

Given our situation, we had nothing to lose.

I explained to Caden, "This necklace was from Grandpa. He said that I could send him a distress signal. I hope it works." "Give it a try," said Caden, as he looked at my necklace.

From the appearance, this necklace looked nothing special.

I pressed the plum blossom switch carefully.

In an instant, the once-dull pendant began to glow with a faint green light. At first it was a soft, pale green, 1/3 Chapter 160 SOS "It actually works!" Both Caden and I gasped, eyes wide with surprise as the necklace blinked.

But along with my excitement, ca bit of worry, "I just hope Grandpa receives the signal." Caden's POV: "He will," I assured her, meeting her eyes with unwavering certainty.

I had never seen a transmitter like this before.

Wasn't Rosaline's grandpa just an old man from a rural town like Frostmoore? How could he have access to such an advance technology? My fiancée was definitely not as simple as she seemed.

But if she didn't want to talk about it, I wouldn't ask either.

I loved her for who she was-her identity and family background didn't matter to me.

95% Finished Besides, we had just confessed our love for each other while thousands of feet in the air. That alone had been more than enough to makehappy.

It's just that the Moon Goddess had an interesting sense of humor. Why did our mutual confession have to occur at times like this? As we drifted closer to the sea, I scanned the horizon. In the distance, I spotted a few islands.

I gently nudged Rosaline and pointed ahead, "Rosie, do you see those islands over there?" She turned to look, with her eyes lighting up. “I do! I was just about to tell you the sthing." I chuckled softly and whispered in her ear, "Does this mean we're perfectly in sync?" Before she could answer, I dipped my head and brushed my lips over her earlobe.

I just couldn't help it. I wanted to be close to her every second.

"Stop messing around," she scolded softly, turning away to focus on the islands.

Rosaline's POV: Caden's kiss made my heart flutter and feeling secured.

But we were still up in the air, and we hadn't completely escaped danger yet.

However, the islands in the distance gave us hope.

If they had fresh water, that would be even better.

The real question was-how long would it take us to swim there? Would the food Caden brought be enough to sustain us until we reached land? Could grandpa really receive my signal and cto rescue us? 2/3 08:45 Mon, 17 Mar BNA.

Chapter 160 SOS 95% Finished As I was deep in thought, Caden's deep voice broke through my worries, "Do you know how to swim?" "Yes," I nodded.

He reached into his backpack and pulled out a life vest, carefully helpingto put it on. Whee your bon.

Hurn into a wolf, you'll ride on my back. I'll carry you as we swim toward the island." "Alright, Freya can swim too. We can take turns. That way, we'll conserve our energy." "Okay." I silently prayed for a stroke of luck. If a passing ship spotted us, we could be rescued before we even had to swim.

We descended steadily, getting closer and closer to the sea.

The vast ocean stretched endlessly in every direction, with the sea breeze blowing, stirring the waves into towering swells and white crests foaming as they crashed. My heart was once again clenched with anxiety.

Even though both us and our wolves could swim, the vast ocean was filled with unpredictable dangers.

"We're about to hit the water, hold your breath!" Caden warned as he untied the rope around us and put the life vest on me.

Gripping my hand firmly, he pulledclose as we plunged into the sea.

The moment we hit the water, I gasped and accidentally choked on several mouthfuls of salty seawater. The briny taste filled my throat, makinguncomfortable.

When I raised my head, Caden's wolf had swum towardand quickly heldwith its strong paws, signalingto ride on its back.

I kissed the white wolf on its forehead and said, "I'm alright. Thank you."

There was no need for formalities now. I climbed onto his back, gripping his fur tightly as he kicked off and his powerful limbs slicing through the water, paddling towards the island. 206 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliIofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1
