Chapter 130


    Allison stared at the dark eyes, which were so cold that she felt frozen.


    She remembered how he got down on one knee in front of her and grasped her hand. He had


    exined to her that he was unable to offer her a ring, but instead, he gave her a ne that was


    really precious to him.


    Ryan looked away from Allison. She lowered her head and lifted her hand. She caressed a locket


    that hid under her dress.


    “Why did you stop? Are you not feeling well?”


    As Ethan’s voice reached her ears, her fingers curled. She gave a slight shake of her head before


    approaching the table.


    When Wade looked over, he noticed that Ethan and Allison were getting closer. He was about to


    rise up. However, Ethan motioned for him not to stand up because he was in the middle of eating.


    Ethan pulled a chair for Allison. Allison silently sat in the chair.


    “Sorry, we started first. Don’t mind us.” Elora spoke out to Allison.


    “It’s okay. Please eat. I apologize for my inconvenient behavior. I should be with you when you


    enter.”


    “That doesn’t matter. We were able to observe how romantic your Alpha is. The way he dozed off


    while holding you in his arms…” Elora paused and turned her gaze to Ethan, then continued,


    “It looked like a habit. It seems that the two of you always do that.”


    Allison ignored everything happening around her. She started eating with her head lowered down.


    Ethan gave Elora his full attention before casting a nce across to Ryan, who appeared unfazed


    by whatever it was that Elora had said.


    “We are couples. Cuddling is something thates very naturally to couples.” Ethan said and


    moved his gaze to Elora once again.


    Ethan’s smile faded when his eyes turned dark. Elora averted his gaze and then turned to face


    Ryan.


    “What are your thoughts?”


    Ryan halted moving the fork. /‘About what?” He asked.


    “About cuddling.” Elora replied.


    He furrowed his brows. She locked her arm with him and questioned him again,


    “What do you think? What is the best ce for cuddling? Bed or car, like they were doing?” Allison


    raised her head and nced at Elora’s arm. She chewed food, but she lost her appetite.


    She took a nce at her surroundings and immediately felt worse. If she had known that they were


    nning oning to this restaurant, she likely would not have approved of their decision toe


    here.


    “In the woods.” Ryan replied to Elora.


    All of a sudden, everyone heard the sound of a fork hitting the te.


    They turned their heads in the direction of Allison. Her finger became unbnced and her fork


    ended up falling onto her te, which resulted in a loud noise.


    In the meantime, Allison quickly batted her eyelids. To keep herself under control, she balled up her


    empty hand.


    The response from Ryan shook her heart.


    It took her back to the night of her father’s birthday.


    Under the moonlight and close to theke, he cuddled with her, and she fell asleep in his arms in


    the woods.


    She blinked her eyes rapidly in an effort to stop any tears from escaping them.


    Why was it that every word he spoke, everything he did, and even he himself served as a constant


    reminder of her past?


    She sensed someone putting their arm around her shoulder and rubbing it. “What happened?”


    She turned to her side. Ethan appeared to be concerned. She gave a slight nod in response. He


    gazed intently into her eyes. His eyes began to darken as if he could read what was in her eyes. He


    removed his arm from her and turned his head to Ryan, who was also looking at him.


    Everyone at the table could feel the tension that was building up.


    There was nothing to act on. Each and everyone at the table knew the past rtionship between


    Ryan and Allison. There was nothing to hide.


    Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g


    Ethan was going to say something to Ryan, but Elora interrupted him and said something instead.


    “That’s why you hugged me that night? I told you I wanted to go back home. How stupid I was! You


    should have told me that you like it.”


    When Allison heard Elora, she immediately turned her attention to Ryan. Ryan turned to Elora and


    said,


    “Private life should be private.”


    “Look who’s talking.” Ethan mocked.


    “You are right. You can not share the moment that you spent with your special person.” Once more,


    Elora was the one to interrupt Ethan.


    It really irritated Ethan. He could not help but cast an angry look in Elora’s direction.


    There was disdain in her eyes when she gazed back at him.


    “Everyone, eat fast. We have to get going so we can visit the Art Gallery.” Teresa spoke out. Max


    nodded his head in agreement.


    Both Vernon and Owen were keeping their silence as they observed the other people.


    After having a meal, everyone stood up. Allison took one final look across the rooftop before


    following the others down the stairs.


    They traveled for a total of one hour and a half before arriving at the Art Gallery.


    This was the first time Allison came here. She got down of the car and looked at the two–story


    building.


    ‘CROWN ART GALLERY‘ was written outside the building.


    She made her way into the gallery. The hallway was quite extensive. Visitors were able to view a


    large number of paintings that were disyed there.


    There were numerous visitors there, and they all strolled around while gazing at the many artworks.


    The guests‘ attention was truly grabbed by the white wall that featured vivid paintings housed in


    large wooden frames.


    Elora pointed at a painting to show Teresa and took her a little far.


    While they were looking at the painting, Ryan and his officials were walking around.


    Allison was apanied by Ethan as they walked.


    “That’s you.”


    He stopped in front of a painting. When Allison nced at it, she noticed that it was a painting of a


    wolf with white fur and blue eyes.


    She looked down at the title, which was written below the painting with blue ink.


    ‘Beautiful Omega‘


    She stared at the wolf carefully, but suddenly something hit her mind. She turned to look at Ethan


    “How do you say that it looks like my wolf?” she asked him


    Because not every omega did not have white wolves and blue eyes. There were other Omegas


    paintings too.


    Ethan gave her a warm grin but did not respond to her question. She wondered whether or not she


    had ever shifted in front of him. Perhaps he had seen her when they were both still young.


    However, she was unable to recall ever running with him.


    They walked ahead and saw Elora standing in front of a painting. Since everyone was hunting for


    their kind in the paintings, Allison refrained from disturbing her in any way. She walked past her.


    However, Ethan came to a stop and gazed at the painting.


    A woman with dark hair and a pair of green eyes. She was looking at the moon as the moonlight fell


    over her.


    Ethan looked at the title and muttered,


    “Lunar Witch?”
