Chapter 103
ke''s POV
It was yet another busy day for the pack as everyone was still busy preparing for Carrie’sing of
age ceremony.
The bustle around was usually noisy and chaos to my ears, so I would always go inside the pack house
and try to bury myself in silence while my heart was in pain of Chloe’s leaving.
But at this moment, I did not have any n to shut myself in the office to not care about what was
happening around.
No…
I could not afford to miss the opportunity to be in this ce and watch the most important person to me.
Standing in the corner, my heart could not help but be filled with longing and warmth as I watched
Chloe talking with the servants who were part of the preparation team f0r my younger sister’s birthday.
Although it came as a surprise to Chloe that Carrie’s birthday is just around the corner, she could not
let herself stay idle and went here in this ce to see if she can help in the preparation.
Watching from afar, I knew that the servants and the others had already stopped her, but seeing that
she was still there observing things, I knew that she still insisted on helping.
In her eyes, I can see the confusion and surprise upon realizing that the servants and the rest suddenly
rejected her offer to help. She was also probably thinking about the reason as before she left, almost
everyone in the pack had been close to her.
Little did she know that I had already hinted to the most trusted people around me to not let her get
involved with such rigorous activities.
While I know that she could never be stopped when ites to making Carrie’s birthday celebration
sessful, I was worried that her body and our child would not be able to handle the rigorous exercise.
Thus I gave a hard order to the servants to not allow her in such strenuous work.
Upon hearing that she was still insisting toe and help, here I am… staring at her worriedly yet
warmly.
The next moment, my view was suddenly blocked by a servant unknowingly walking in front of me.
Vexed that he suddenly walked like that, I red at him reproachfully, not noticing that my pressuring
aura had already reached his body.
His face paled and his entire body shuddered as if wanting to scream and run for his life.
“I apologize, my king! I apologize!” He suddenly bowed lower, his head almost kissing the ground
before scurrying away.
“It’s not a big deal,” I waved my hand to dismiss him while a frown appeared on my face.
I was taken aback by his reaction as I watched him stagger to go on his way.
‘Is my aura that scary at the moment?’
‘Or perhaps it strengthened somehow?’
I pondered as this was the first time I have seen my own pack show fear with my pressuring aura.
Usually, it was the enemies from the other packs who would have such simr reactions.
For the members of this pack, unless they had sinned, they would have an innate protection towards
their Alpha’s aura.
An Alpha’s aura is a mark of the pack itself. It would not make sense if it could directly hurt the pack
members everytime I use it.
Themotion created by the servant caught the attention of the nearby servants, and in the end they
realized that I was here in the area of the party and fearfully greeted them.
Immediately, the head servant also approached me as he bowed his head and trembled before me,
“Our Alpha…”
‘Even the head servant is afraid?’ My eyes flickered but I remained calm.
Usually these servants would appear amiable toward me as I always show that they should not overly
mind about my position in the pack. But now, why do they seem to be creating distance?
Even so, I could feel that they still had that respect toward me, but the walls were already too tall for me

not to notice.
“En… Why is Chloe still lingering in the work?” As I have already discovered, I have to act like I was not
watching here for a long time and have just arrived at the moment to inquire of the work’s progress.
“This… Our king…” The head servant’s face changed and his expression looked troubled.
After stuttering for a while, he replied carefully, “Our Luna has been insisting to join the preparation
even after we rejected her repeatedly… I-in the end… S-she said that she would not go back to the
pack house unless.. We allow her to h-help…”
I looked deeply at the scared head servant and my voice turned cold, “Is that so?”
“Y-yes…” He nodded and answered.
“Then do not let her do the heavy tasks, she is still devastated about what happened to her father… the
work must not take a toll on her body…” I reminded the servant repeatedly.
As I wanted to let him know the gravity of my words, I coldly stated, “Once something happens to her
because of the work in here, all of you will be held responsible…”
“W-we hear your orders… Our K-king!” The head servant shuddered once more and acknowledged my
orders.
“Then go and settle her troubles.” I shook my hand and waved towards the direction where my mate
was trying to ask for any activities around.
Watching the head servant finally solve my mate’s predicament, I could see her smile in satisfaction as
she epted the mighty colorful materials she was probably tasked to assemble for the decorations.
The smile blooming on her lips effectively infected my mood as well as I put a subtle arch on my lips.
But the bliss I am feeling at the moment was fated to be short lived as I felt Lisa’s presence behind me.
My expression turned frozen cold once more as I asked without turning to see her, “What is it, Lyra?”
“I should be the one asking you, ke… What do you think you are doing right now?” Lyra immediately
answered.
The tone in her voice was filled with admonishment and frustration to which I did not take heart.
Seeing that I did not mind her talking, Lyra continued.
“You know that you have a lot to do in the office! Since you rushed toward the Red Moon Pack so
suddenly, the things left to be addressed were now lying there in the office collecting dust!”.
My eyes squinted dangerously as a sh of irritation triggered a headache in my temples.
Hearing Lyra nagging more frequently was already getting on my nerves. I turned to her and gave her a
warning re as I said my response.
“I am protecting Chloe… right now nothing is as important as seeing her safe.”
Lyra’s expression dimmed and a trace of anger appeared on her face.
With trembling body and clenched fists, she gritted her teeth and controlled her anger between her
words,
“D*mn, ke! Can’t you see yourself right now?! You are bing more and more obsessed with
Chloe! As an Alpha and the Lycan king, you should not act like this!”
Though I could see that Lyra was controlling her tone to not attract the attention of those around, I
found it troublesome to carter her nonsense as I waved my hand and turned to where Chloe is working
again.
“The work can wait… at this moment, all I care about is Chloe and my child. That is my priority!”
No matter what the other people say, all I want now is to keep Chloe and my child safe in any threat
possible.
The two of them are the light in my life, and their mere presence had the power to instantly wash away
the negativities and grievances I am feeling.
Besides, I have once lost Chloe because of my neglect and willfulness.
Knowing my faults and my shorings, why would I allow the same thought of leaving me to enter
my mate’s mind once more?
