Chapter 911 Awkward
Crystal''s POV:
"I''ve heard that the Silver Moon Pack is a ce brimming with art and culture. I''ll definitely visit it if I
ever have the chance," I muttered casually, trying to avoid any awkwardness between us. However,
I was terrified that Warren would recognize my voice, so I spoke softly and with pauses. He must
certainly feel that I was very arrogant and strange.
The guard next to us was also puzzled. He scratched his head and watched me carefully.
I cleared my throat and asked the guard to leave us, so that Warren and I were alone.
Warren didn''t respond to myment. He was obviously behaving frostily toward me. The smile on
his face hadpletely disappeared. His lips were pressed into a thin line, and the expression in
his eyes was icy.
At this moment, I could see the arrogant and difficult Warren I had met when I had just joined
school.
But now, he was more confident and domineering than before. I presumed that he must have
adapted well to the role of Alpha in the past five years.
I felt a huge wave of relief. I was d to see my old friend living a good life.
It seemed that Warren didn''t want to continue the conversation. After saying "see youter", he
turned around and left. I noticed him being pulled aside by the Alpha of another pack for a chat, and
desperately wanted to follow him to ask if Flora had apanied him here. However, my intuition
warned me that I shouldn''t ask him this, no matter what excuses I could give himter.
Moreover, if Flora discovered where I was, she would definitely want to establish close contact with
me in the future. If I wasn''t careful, I could get into trouble.
Despite painful, I had to let go of the idea.
If there were no familiar friends around, any banquet was undoubtedly boring.
I didn''t know why Rufus didn''t attend it. Only Laura hade. I tried my best to keep a low profile.
Laura didn''t seem to spot me.
Since I didn''t get to see the person I wanted to, I didn''t want to stay here any longer, so I discreetly
left.
I couldn''t really rx until I arrived at the garden. Then, I took a leisurely stroll around the imperial
pce.
The pce was still the same as before. But it somehow felt like it had been ages since I was here
last.
Not realizing where my feet were taking me, I arrived at the pce where Rufus used to reside. It
was empty and only some guards milled around. I assumed that Rufus had shifted to the lycan
king''s pce.
When I walked by the back entrance of the pce, I gazed at the small garden from the distance.
The swing beside theke was still there, but the grape vines had withered. I guessed that no one
had tended to them in a long time.
My eyes went up to the room I used to live in. It was dark. There was no warm light within, and no
familiar person stood on the balcony waiting for me to return.
All of a sudden, my eyes welled up with tears, and I felt an overwhelming sadness.
Everything had changed.
Perhaps I had been standing here for too long, because a guard of the pce sensed that
something was amiss and rushed over to check.
He didn''t let me leave until I showed him my identity and told him that I had taken the wrong path.
I was not in the mood to continue my wanderings. After going back to my room, I dismissed the
servants. I couldn''t wait to rip my mask off and take out my mobile phone, wanting to video chat with
my kids.
But to my surprise, my phone was switched off.

Had the battery died?
This was strange. I hadn''t used my cell phone much. It should have still had power.
I took out the charger to charge it.
Just as I was about to turn the phone on, there was a suddenmotion outside the door.
"Alpha! King Rufus is here!"
The loud voice of the guard filtered through the door, frightening me. The phone slipped from my
hand and crashed to the ground.
