Chapter 36


    The time for our departure quickly came.


    Without dy, I packed my things and waited to meet ke. Scanning my belongings onest time, my


    eyes stayed at the mask that wasid on the bedside.


    A part of me wanted to go outside and reveal myself to them for thest time. But after some time of


    pondering deeply, I decided to put the mask on my face. It was thest time I would have to see the


    Red Moon Pack. I chose for it to be a bitter yet sweet memory.


    Since my choice to leave them included my decision to be happy.


    And so I smiled and walked out of the door.


    However, my smile froze when I realized that someone was standing at the door, and it was someone


    who I least wanted to see - n.


    He was walking towards me with a te in his hand. I could only wipe the smile off my face and


    nodded at him as a greeting.


    On the other hand, n also nodded and handed over the te directly to me.


    I realized that it was a te of freshly baked blueberry cheesecake.


    “I heard that you are leaving and would no longer participate in the New Alpha’s inauguration


    ceremony, so I thought I have to bring you something to eat.” n exined.


    Looking at the te, I could not help but wonder if n had recognized who I really was and


    remembered that I liked blueberry cheesecake the most.


    But I brushed the possibility off, it must have been just a coincidence that he gave me the cake, the


    same as my preference. Still, I could not help but find it a bit ironic.


    I did not understand why n was suddenly acting like this when he and I, as one of ke’s beta, had


    no good rtionship at all.


    I looked up and questioned him with my gaze, asking the meaning behind his actions.


    n seemed to also realize the strangeness of his behavior and answered, “I only hoped that you and


    the king would have a safe journey…”


    Then without waiting for my reaction, he turned and left leaving me deeply puzzled.


    Helpless, I could only bring the food in the room and ced it on a table.


    I stared at it for a long time, until I came to a decision to pick it up.


    ‘Why not just eat it? It is my favorite blueberry cheesecake after all!’


    ke arrived at my room shortly after and we both walked to meet the rest of the party.


    “Where’s Arthur? He iste.” Looking at the time, ke asked his beta about Arthur’s whereabouts.


    “I will look for him right away, my King.” The beta immediately responded. However, before he could


    even move, our attention was caught by the coquettish cries of two she-wolves not a far distance from


    us.


    “Dr. Arthur… we heard that you will already go back to your pack! How about we go around our pack


    and look around onest time before you go~”


    “We will dly apany you Dr. Arthur~”


    We saw Arthur, being chased by two girls who were convincing him to stay a little bit longer and y


    with them.


    “Sorry girls, I need to go back because my researchboratory at home misses me now!” Arthur turned


    around and looked a bit sad.


    In the end, the girls could only give up. When they left, they could not help but to cast a pleading nce


    at him.


    When Arthur turned around, he realized that we had witnessed everything and immediately sent the


    two girls away, before running over.


    ke and I looked at each other with thoughts in our mind.


    “Come over here, we are going back to the pack.” ke looked at Arthur and ordered rather heavily.


    As for me, I deliberately asked with a teasing tone, “Hmmm, it seems that Arthur’s handsomeness


    could not be hindered by a mere mask… even the she-wolves of the Red Moon Pack could not resist


    his charms!”


    “W-what are you talking about? I did not do anything to attract those girls either! I was just doing my


    own business and those girls were the ones who took the initiative and pestered me, even if I did not


    want to!” Arthur was suddenly distressed but could not help but be arrogant as he recounted what


    happened.


    “Well… I wonder how Carrie would react when she knew about this?” I continued teasing Arthur, it was


    quite rare to see him this flustered and panicky.


    “I told you, I am innocent. I did not do anything, not even look at any of the girls in here. Didn’t we have


    to go back to the pack? Let’s quickly head back!” Arthur stressed once more and tried to change the


    topic.


    With that, we started to walk towards the exit of the Red Moon Pack.


    On the way out of the Pack, we heard loud roaring cheers. It was the first time I have heard such loud


    victorious cheers when I stayed here.


    “It should be my father officially announcing that Vanessa has be the new Alpha,” I muttered as I


    saw that everyone paused and looked at the direction of the voices.


    Both ke and Arthur looked at me, their faces filled with mixed expressions.


    At first I raised my brows, not understanding what their gazes meant but soon after I understood their


    reactions.


    Knowing my identity and my story, they were worried that even after all that had happened, the


    inevitable still happened and I would be sad about the oue.


    I smiled and gave an expression of assurance to them, “I am fine… I do not care whether Vanessa


    bes the next alpha at all… On the contrary , I feel relieved… Everything on their end is settled and


    this could no longer affect my mood.”


    I quickly took ke’s hand and pulled him away towards the gate.


    Holding his hand, and with a heart that chose to be happy at the moment, I stepped out of the Red


    Moon Pack gate.


    My hand tightened, but I took a deep breath and took my second step forward.


    This is the first time I am leaving the pack with a happy thought.


    I took another step, followed by another. Soon I also heard the footsteps of Arthur and the rest following


    behind me quietly.


    I looked at ke, who was looking at me the entire way. His hand also tightened as he encouraged me


    to continue walking. A gentle smile bloomed on our lips.


    My heart was finally free as I moved forward, not even turning to look back.


    Because in my heart, there was a home waiting for me.


    A ce that epted me for who I am and never ridiculed me for my weaknesses.


    A ce that made me feel weed and respected, filled with people who treated me fairly like a


    normal person.


    A ce where I will and would continue to be sheltered in nothing but love and kindness.

    And most probably, a ce where I may even spend a lifetime with ke and our future family.


    My new home…


    My new pack!


    My new family…


    The Silver Pack!
