Chapter 17
Catherine’s POV
“Catherine, did you send Noah and Hedwig to kindergarten? Why haven’t youe back?”
It was Mabel on the phone. To reassure her, I quickly exined, “Yeah, the kids are at kindergarten
now. And… They are doing great. I’m going to the market for some shopping and will be back soon. Is
anything wrong?”
“No, I just want to tell you that Cedrick is back.” Mabel sounded rxed and cheerful.
“Cedrick?” I felt a little familiar with the name.
“My eldest son. You met him when you were young. Oh, I forgot that you were still a baby at that time.”
Mabelughed heartily. Then she continued, “Anyway, you can know each other after youe back.”
“Okay, I will be back as soon as possible.”
After hanging up the phone, I looked at ke again and saw a strange look on his face. He seemed to
be mad at something..
Yet I was in no mood to guess his feelings. I demanded again, “Hurry to give my kids back to me. I got
something to do tonight and have no time to waste on you.”
“If you are in a hurry, go find them yourself!” ke casually spread his arms
“You wretch!” I stamped my foot in anger and picked a direction before I ran out.
‘Fine. I can look for the kids myself. I swear that I’ll find them even if I have to turn this ce inside
out.’
However, I felt like I was in arge maze as soon as I stepped out of the living room.
‘Heavens! Why did he build his house like a maze?’
As I was so confident when I came out, I was too ashamed to go back and beg him.
Then I only gritted my teeth and chanted the kids’ names as I ran forward.
I walked through two corridors and searched several rooms, but I never heard the kids’ response.
I felt a dart of panic. ‘Is there a secret room in this ce? Did ke hide Hedwig and Noah there?’
With firm determination, I walked around the vi a few more times. My throat was hoarse and my
legs were tired, but I still couldn’t find the kids.
Standing in the strange hall and looking at the strange furnishings, I knew that I was lost.
I squatted in depression and leaned against a marble column.
“Noah, Hedwig, where are you?” I felt both upset and helpless, with tears running down my cheeks.
Suddenly, I felt a kick on my leg. I looked up and then saw ke standing next to me.
“Get up. I’ll take you to them.” ke looked at me as if I was a poor puppy.
“Really?” I jumped up from the floor.
Then I realized that I might be too happy and quickly calmed myself down.
I was desperate just now. After ke offered to help me, I was so overjoyed that I even forgot how
despicable and shameless he was.
I thought that I was a little stupid. Why should I be grateful to him? He was the one who had taken my
kids away.
“Follow me!” ke strode towards a corridor with his long legs.
I quickly walked behind him despite my tired legs.
Actually, my tiredness was gone when I thought that I could see my kids soon.
Just as I quickened my pace to catch up with him, ke suddenly stopped.
Obsessed with the kids, I didn’t even have time to stop but directly ran into his back.
My nose was hurting.
‘Is his body made of iron? Why is it so hard?’
“By the way, please wash your face before going to see the kids. You look really wretched now.”
ke turned around and shot a disdainful nce at me.
I red at him and said, “It was all your fault. If you had allowed me to see them, I wouldn’t have been
like this.”
“So you’ve always thought you’re pretty?” ke sneered.
I straightened up and said in a confident voice, “Of course. When I was in Pennsylvania, a lot of men
tried to hit on me. You have a bad taste, but others don’t.”
“Well, it seems that you’re flirtatious about your rtionship. In such a case, I think that it’s not good to
leave the kids in your care. A stable home environment is necessary for werewolf cubs,” ke crossed
his arms over his chest and guessed.
For a moment, I didn’t know what to say and had a feeling that I was falling for ke’s trick.

For a moment, I didn’t know what to say and had a feeling that I was falling for ke’s trick.
He was just trying to take the kids away from me!
“Who is more flirtatious? I heard that the Lycan King didn’t mark his Luna and often dated different
lovers. So, shouldn’t you see yourself first when you pick on me?” I retorted.
“Who told you that I have a lot of lovers?” ke raised his eyebrows with a scornful smile.
I rolled my eyes at him and said, “No one told me that. After I arrived at Sayreville, the surrounding
packs were all gossiping about you.”
“Since you said it was gossip, why do you believe it?”
I snorted, “Why not? If it’s about you, I will believe it.”
ke’s face darkened.
“I’ll ask you again. Was it you or Gina who slept with me that night?” ke suddenly asked.
I was frightened by the fierce look on his face and said with fear, “So what if it’s me? Anyway, you’ve
announced that Gina is your future Lycan Luna?”
“If it was you, it would mean that Gina lied to me,” said ke coldly. “But during these years, she
always took for granted everything I gave her.”
Hearing this, I had a wicked thought. ‘Will ke part from Gina if I admit that I was the woman with him
that night?’
In fact, I had doubted why Gina would be chosen as the future Lycan Luna after I returned to
Sayreville. She didn’t get much Alpha aura from my father.
Besides, my father’s ck Moon Pack wasn’t a strong pack in Shadow Forest, let alone in New
Jersey.
More importantly, Gina didn’t have any qualifications required for a Luna.
How could a in woman like Gina who had no powerful backer be a star in New Jersey? All of
this must be credited to ke.
“Didn’t you feel the Lycan aura from Noah? Who else could it be except for me? Do you regret it now?
Are you thinking about how to exin it to the royal family and the Council?”
It urred to me that ke had been providing help to Gina for the past five years, and he had also
announced that Gina was the future Lycan Luna. But now, he found out he made a mistake. How
should he exin it to the royal family and the Council?
