Alright!¡± Nathan Gayle stopped the party, showing his hand. ¡°I think it¡¯s time to reveal the gender of the pup,¡± he added, on which everyone cheered and howled in happiness. Grabbing a ck balloon that was kept in the corner of the room, he walked toward his mate, Ethlyn Smith Gayle, with a big smile on his face. At the same time, other people hooted, and Ethlyn¡¯s sister gave her a needle with which she was going to burst the balloon, and the color filled inside it would reveal the gender. ¡°So, what do you think? Its pink inside or blue?¡± Ethlyn¡¯s mother asked the crowd. ¡°Pink!!¡± ¡°Blue!!¡± ¡°Blue¡± ¡°Pink!!¡± ¡°It¡¯s a girl, for sure.¡± ¡°No, it¡¯s a boy!! The future Alpha of the pack for sure!!¡± All the guests guessed the gender of the baby, judging the size of Ethlyn¡¯s baby bump and her mood swings in the past two months. ¡°Ready, love?¡± Nathan asked with a smile, to which Ethlyn nodded happily. ¡°This is our future.¡± ¡°I know.¡± Ethlyn agreed and burst the balloon with a needle and looked down at the color that was inside it, but she furrowed her eyebrow, finding a lot of papering cutting. Everyone stopped cheering and hooting, seeing this. Was this a new way of revealing a gender? Instead of color, boy or girl would be written on the paper cutting? Everyone wondered. Ethlyn bent down and picked a piece of paper to read what was written on that, and her eyes widened when she read ¡®Cheat.¡¯ She picked up another paper and read, ¡®Betrayer,¡¯ ¡®Hate you,¡¯ ¡®Slut¡¯, ¡®Whore¡¯, etc. ¡°What¡­ what is all this, Nathan?¡± Ethlyn said in confusion. Because of air, those paper slips flew to other people as well, even if they got confused reading it.This content belongs to N?/velDra/ma.Org . ¡°Really, Ethlyn? You don¡¯t know.¡± Immediately the tone of Nathan changed, and he didn¡¯t sound pleased but looked very pissed. ¡°I don¡¯t understand.¡± She said, hoping this to be some kind of prank. ¡°What are you talking about?¡± ¡°Wow!! I wonder how can you lie so smoothly?¡± Nathan pped, observing the actions of Ethlyn. ¡°Let me call the pack doctor to reveal your real face in front of all our close rtives and friends,¡± he added with disgust as if she had done some low-level or cheap crime. ¡°Luna Ethlyn!!¡± The pack doctor bowed his head in front of her, but Ethlyn felt angerced in his tone, not understanding the reason behind it. She had been born and raised in the same pack, so she knew everyone in the pack, including the pack doctor, but she never did in her whole life; he talked to her like that. ¡°The pup in your womb doesn¡¯t belong to Alpha Nathan.¡± ¡°WHAT?¡± Ethlyn questioned in shock, and even the expression of the other person was simr to hers. ¡°Yes, Luna Ethlyn. I have run various tests of Alpha Nathan, and the truth is that he is sterile.¡± Everyone gasped at the discovery of this news. ¡°That¡¯s¡­ that¡¯s impossible,¡± Ethlyn said, denying this. How could this be possible? She was pregnant by his pup then. How the hell was it possible that Nathan could be sterile? ¡°I knew you would say something like that, Ethlyn. After all, you weren¡¯t expecting me to find your betrayal, were you?¡± Nathan questioned. ¡°No. Nath¡­¡± ¡°Shut up!¡± He growled at her. ¡°Your mother is the head nurse of the pack hospital. So, let¡¯s ask about the same thing with her,¡± he added, to which Ethlyn looked at her mother, hopefully, who was ring at her. Now, she could understand why her mother¡¯s behavior changed all of a sudden over the past few weeks. ¡°Mom?¡± She looked at her, still expecting this to be such a kind of lie. ¡°This is the truth, Ethlyn.¡± Ethlyn¡¯s mother feels ashamed of the fact that her daughter did this. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you tell me about it?¡± Ethlyn¡¯s father asked her mother while Ethlyn felt like someone stole the ground under her feet. She wasn¡¯t ready to believe what was happening there. It looked like a bad dream to her from where she wanted to wake up as soon as possible. ¡°Natha¡­¡± Ethlyn tried to touch her mate, but he jerked her away. ¡°Don¡¯t touch me, you whore!!¡± ¡°Mind your tone, Alpha Nathan.¡± Ethlyn¡¯s father growled at his Alpha being, the former Beta of the pack. Tears started rolling out of Ethlyn¡¯s eyes, hearing that particr word from her mate¡¯s mouth. ¡°And mind your voice, Christian.¡± Nathan roared back at him, calling Ethlyn¡¯s father by name, shocking everyone. ¡°You¡¯re talking to your Alpha.¡± ¡°I won¡¯t give a damn to anyone if he or she will insult my daughter.¡± Ethlyn¡¯s father growled. ¡°I am insulting her?¡± Nathan questioned him. ¡°If showing the mirror is term as an insult, then trust me, your daughter has done something really embarrassing.¡± ¡°Ask her, with whom did she sleep, and who pup is she was carrying?¡± Nathan asked. ¡°It¡¯s yours, Na¡­¡± Ethlyns¡¯ words were cut in between when Nathan pped at angrily, making her fall on the ground. ¡°Aahhh!!¡± She cried when she felt extreme pain in her stomach. ¡°How dare you?¡± Christian, Ethlyn¡¯s father, attacked his Alpha the moment he saw his daughter in pain. He lost it. . #TBC 2 ¡°Chris, No!! Daddy¡­ Noo!! Dadd¡­¡± Ethlyn, her mother, and her sister screamed in horror. Ethlyn¡¯s father shifted into his midnight ck and grey wolf and attacked Nathan without giving him a chance to fight back. Christian would have killed him for sure, but Nathan¡¯s security members wouldn¡¯t have interrupted in between. The wolfsbane was injected into Christan to calm his wolf down, and the moment he shifted into human form, butt-naked, Nathan ordered. ¡°Take him to the cell and tie his hands and legs with silver chain.¡± ¡°Nathan, please!! Don¡¯t do this to my dad.¡± Ethlyn begged, holding his feet as she was still on the ground because of pain. Nathan pushed her away with his legs. ¡°I, Nathan Gayle, Alpha of Wind Winder Pack, reject you, Ethlyn Smith, as my mate and Luna to this pack.¡± He announced, looking at her in disgust. ¡°Nathan, there is some misunderstanding, for sure. Please don¡¯t take this decision in haste.¡± Ethlyn tried to convince her mate cum her best friend; they had been together since childhood, despite their age difference of four years, and then got marked two months back after the news of her pregnancy. She was about to say more, but then she saw the Beta of the pack dragging the unconscious body of her father in front of her with a silver cuff on her father¡¯s wrist. ¡°ept the rejection and leave, Ethlyn, before Nathan would do something really bad with you or with your pup.¡± Nathan¡¯s mother said in concern. The former Luna had always considered her as her daughter, but she had never thought that Ethlyn could stoop so low. ¡°Mom, please trust me!! It¡¯s¡­.¡± ¡°Stop it, Ethlyn. Stop your lie. I always knew Nathan was sterile. I hid this information with you, Nathan, and your family, so that I didn¡¯t want you to reject Nathan. But at the same time, I didn¡¯t expect you to start naming someone¡¯s pup as Nathan¡¯s because there is no way this pup could be of Nathan.¡± Nathan¡¯s mother yelled at Ethlyn this time. ¡°Moon Goddess, if Nathan¡¯s father would have been alive, then he would have died of shame by seeing your shameless act.¡± She added with disgust. ¡°I, Ethlyn Smith, daughter of former Beta Christian Smith of Wind Winder Pack, ept the rejection of Alpha Nathan Gayle,¡± Ethlyn said, wiping her tears, and all of a sudden, she was hit by a strong wave of pain, breaking her heart into pieces. Her wolf cried in pain, but at the same time, she knew she had to stay strong for her pups. She looked at everyone and realized that everyone was either hating her at that moment or feeling disgust for her. She didn¡¯t have to go very far. Her own mother and sister were looking at her in that way. The only person who could have stood by her side was now in the cell. ¡°You and the father of your pup can leave my pack right now, right here,¡± Nathan ordered, not even looking at her. ¡®Father of your pup.¡¯ That word repeated in her mind. Little did anyone know, she knew nothing about the father of her pup if he wasn¡¯t Nathan. She didn¡¯t remember sharing any night other than with Nathan. ¡°What happened? Why do you so lost?¡± Ethlyn¡¯s mother asked. ¡°Who is the father of your pup?¡± She asked again. ¡®Cinder?¡¯ Ethlyn asked her wolf. ¡®I don¡¯t remember cheating on our mate. The only night I was out was the night when I was in heat.¡¯ Cinder replied, recalling all her nights. ¡®But before that, we were with our mate. So, there¡¯s no way our way he can leave us in that state, can he?¡¯ She asked. Ethlyn looked at her ex-mate suspiciously, wondering if he was behind all this. Or the people she was surrounded with? ¡°Who¡¯s the father of your pup, Ethlyn?¡± Her younger sister, Reva, asked, to which Ethlyn chuckled at her situation. She herself didn¡¯t know the answer to this question. ¡°Why does it matter to you both now?¡± Ethlyn questioned, especially her mother, who didn¡¯t care to confront about the same the moment she had figured it out the pup inside her wasn¡¯t Nathan¡¯s. She stood up on her feet, wiping all her tears. She wanted to tell her that she didn¡¯t know the father of her pup, but at the same time, she knew she would be tagged with many names like slut, whore, prostitute, and god knows what more; after all, she would have slept with how many men because of which she didn¡¯t know the name of her pup¡¯s father. ¡°I can¡¯t believe you. After doing this shameful act, you have no sign of regret or guilt in your tone.¡± Ethlyn¡¯s mother scolded on which Reva and tried to calm her down. ¡°Who could have Ethlyn could something like this?¡± Nathan¡¯s mother said, shaking her head. ¡°Anyways, packs your things and leave.¡±Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. ¡°Pack her things? What¡¯s here that she has earned?¡± Nathan mocked and looked at the ring on her finger and then the pendant on her neck. ¡°Even all things belong to mine. Give back to me.¡± . #TBC 3 Ethlyn¡¯s jaw clenched, and she was still having a hard time believing all this was happening to her even though she didn¡¯t do anything wrong. She broke the pendant that she was wearing and then took off her ring and threw it at Nathan¡¯s face. ¡°Everything that is happening to me is because of you, Nathan.¡± She med, surprising him. ¡°I can¡¯t believe you. You got pregnant with someone¡¯s else pup, and you¡¯re ming me? Huh¡± Nathan shook his head in disbelief, and grabbing her arms, he started dragging her out of the pack house. ¡°Nathan!! Careful, son! She¡¯s pregnant.¡± Nathan¡¯s mother screamed. ¡°Nathan! You don¡¯t have to throw her out of the pack.¡± Ethlyn¡¯s mother ran behind him.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Alpha Nathan!! Leave my sister. Alpha¡­¡± Reva cried with teary eyes. While Ethlyn had surely covered her stomach with her hand to keep her pup safe, she was feeling numb because of a lot of things happening to her at the same time. She kept looking at the people around her to see someone smiling at all this, just like in movies and series, but she couldn¡¯t find anyone with a smirk on their lips. Though Nathan was angry, when he pushed Ethlyn out of the pack border, he kept in his mind that she was pregnant, maybe not his, but someone else for sure. ¡°Go near the father of your pup and if he is from our pack, name me, and I will kick him out as well.¡± He said angrily. ¡°Alpha Nathan¡­¡± Reva, Ethyln¡¯s sister, tried to speak when Nathan growled at her. ¡°If you have any problem, pup, then you can join your sister.¡± He ordered, scaring Reva, who was just sixteen years old. ¡°And you want to attack me, then you will find yourself in the cell beside your father,¡± he added, on which Reva shut her mouth. She wanted to attack her Alpha just like her father, but she didn¡¯t have her wolf, and she didn¡¯t stand a chance against him at this age. ¡°Nathan, she is pregnant. So¡­!!¡± Nathan¡¯s mother tried to interfere but was cut in between. ¡°I don¡¯t give a damn about it. It¡¯s not your grandchild so stop it.¡± Nathan said. ¡°I¡¯m sure that this slut wouldn¡¯t have even thought so much before sleeping with someone else.¡± ¡°ENOUGH,¡± Ethlyn growled at him. ¡°Wow! I wonder how you can carry such an attitude even after everything happened in thest half an hour? Leave, and never show your face to me and anywhere near my pack.¡± Nathan said before leaving from there. ¡°I, Nathan Gayle, Alpha of Wind Winder Pack, banished Ethlyn Smith from the pack.¡± He announced immediately that Ethlyn felt all the connection that she had with the pack break in a second. With this, he started leaving from there, not before adding, ¡°Mrs. Smith, Reva, are youing with me or not?¡± Ethlyn¡¯s mother left there. She was blinded with anger so much that she didn¡¯t know even though where and how Ethyln would survive. Or maybe she thought that she would go to the father of the pup now while Reva stayed there looking between the packhouse and her sister, who looked broken and lost. ¡°Leave, Reva!! Don¡¯t put yourself in trouble because of me.¡± Ethlyn said and started leaving from there. She couldn¡¯t shift because of pregnancy, so wherever she had to go, she had to walk. Reva watched her leave and ran away from there to reach her home as soon as possible. She saw her mother stressed, sitting on the couch, leaving her in that state; she ran toward her room. Grabbing her bag, she packed the necessary things in it and all the jewelry that Christan had gifted her at this age and ago her saving. Packing everything, she ran back out of her room. ¡°Where are you going?¡± Her mother asked. ¡°You know it very well.¡± ¡°Reva!! Reva!!¡± Her mother kept crying loudly, but Reva flew away from there. The warriors of the pack border blocked her way. ¡°It¡¯s Alpha Nathan ¡®s order that¡­.¡± ¡°Please!! Please!! Give this bag to her for everything that dad did for the pack.¡± Reva requested. ¡°Please!!¡± One of the warriors took that bag from her and delivered it to Ethlyn, who didn¡¯t have gone far away from there. ¡°Shame on you, Ethlyn!!¡± The warrior said before giving the bag to her. Ethlyn wanted to hit him with the same bag, but she gulped the saliva of anger at that moment. ¡®When your time is not right, everything is against you.¡¯ She heard it somewhere and today is that day of her life. And the cherry on the top, the weather started changing, signaling the heavy rainfall. And the rainfall in the forest used to continue for days sometimes. ¡°I swear that I will return someday!! I surely will.¡± She said, looking at the previous pack and the first drop of rain fell on her face, signaling her to find a shelter for both her and her pup, but she knew that there was nothing around here. She kept walking in the rain for hours. She was worried for her pup as the sun started setting in the west, and in the present situation, she couldn¡¯t save her pup from Rouge by shifting. ¡°Oooooooooooooooowhoo!!¡± ¡®Damn, there are two rouges nearby.¡¯ Cinder sensed. ¡®Fuck!!¡¯ She cursed and started walking quickly. All of a sudden, she slipped because of the slippery ground, and she fell down before she would have controlled herself. ¡°Aaahhhh!!!¡± She cried in pain when her stomach hit the ground again, and this didn¡¯t stop; she started rolling like a ball on the slope of the mountain. ¡°Aaahhhhhhh!!! Aaaaahhhhh!!¡± Her cry echoed in the whole valley. She kept crying and screaming until she fell down from the mountain and her voice died after a loud scream. . #TBC 4 Five yearster!! * ¡°Am Ite, Zordan?¡± Calvin asked his beta, Zordan Collin, who smiled and nodded his head. ¡°Damn it! When will I learn to reach timely on my date?¡± He cursed and was ready for the punishment that the love of his life would give. He had forgotten her birthday first. That was why he promised a dinner date, and then he forgot about the date as well. He couldn¡¯t imagine how pissed she would be.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. He signaled Zordan to leave when they reached thewn where he was supposed to have candlelight dinner with her. ¡°She is pissed,¡± Nelina warned who was standing outside thewn. ¡°I know.¡± ¡°All the best.¡± Saying this, she left to give them privacy. He slowly walked toward thewn and saw her tapping her red bellies on the floor with her hand wrapped around her chest. Her blue eyes were narrowed, throwing daggers from her eyes. Calvin quickly held his ears when he realized that all the candles had already been burned, and it looked like also the food was already cold. ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± He said and started sit-ups in his tailor-designer suit. ¡°You always say that, Calvin,¡± Sheined, shaking her head. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. Please forgive me, love.¡± Calvin apologized, knowing that she was right about it. ¡°Zordan didn¡¯t remind me of our date. Otherwise, I won¡¯t have beente.¡± ¡°I asked Zordy not to remind you. This is your responsibility to remember all these basic things.¡± She huffed, on which Calvin mentally cursed, wondering since when he started reporting to her. After all, Calvin was his Alpha. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, love.¡± ¡°Okay. Stop it.¡± She stopped Calvin from doing sit-ups. ¡°Am I forgiven?¡± Calvin asked in excitement. ¡°No.¡± She shook her head. ¡°Open your zer.¡± ¡°Ahem!! Ahem!! Someone is getting naughty. Want to spend time with me in the pool?¡± Calvin asked. She pped her forehead and muttered, ¡°Offooo! What will I do with him?¡± ¡°Okay, so if not pool, then?¡± Calvin questioned, cing his zer on the chair. ¡°Two hundred pushups.¡± ¡°Oh no!!¡± ¡°Oh yes!!¡± Withoutining, Calvin took the position for pushups and started it while his love walked toward him and sat on his back when he leaned down toward the floor. ¡°Comfortable?¡± Calvin asked softly. ¡°Hmm!!¡± ¡°By the way, I¡¯m sorry again, Princess.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay, Daddy.¡± Roselet Sophia Haysbert, Calvin¡¯s daughter of four and half years, said,yingfortably on his father¡¯s back. ¡°I understand that you have a lot of work at both pack and human world, and then you¡¯re single daddy too.¡± ¡°Hey, don¡¯t call me daddy!! I¡¯m not that old.¡± Calvin joked. ¡°Okay, Calvin.¡± Rose giggled. ¡°So, how was your day?¡± She asked, on which Calvin told her an interesting part of the day in a funny way as if he was telling her a story, making herugh from time to time. He smiled, hearing herughter. It was music to his ear. When five years back, someone left her outside his pack in a box with a note that she was the result of his casanova nature. He wanted to hit his head on the wall. After all, she had turned his life upside down by crying all the time. But he never realized when he fell in love with her. And the cherry on top, in his eyes, his daughter was the most understanding daughter in the whole world. Afterpleting two hundred pushups, he carried his princess in his arms to take her to the room. ¡°Grandma Nelina, please warmed the food up in the microwave.¡± She said to which Nelina nodded. ¡°And arrange candles as well,¡± Calvin added. ¡°Sure.¡± When Calvin reached his room, he found his red shirt and ck shorts on the bed that he was supposed to wear tonight, twinning with Roselet¡¯s red frock. ¡°Give me a minute. I will be back after a quick shower.¡± ¡°Okay, daddy.¡± Roselet agreed. Calvin made her sit on the bed and started unbuttoning his shirt. He threw the shirt away and, grabbing a fresh towel, walked into the washroom. Staying in a pack between the werewolves, it was nothing shameful to see people naked for Roselet but Calvin still never stripped in front of her, unwilling and forbade everyone the same to do the same in front of her. ¡°Offo!!¡± Roselet shook her head when she saw Calvin¡¯s shirt on the floor. She left the bed and picked it up, and kept it in theundry box. She returned back to the bed again. ¡°Na.. na¡­ na.. Na,¡± Calvin walked into the room after five minutes and wore shorts with the same red shirt, throwing the wet towels on the bed. ¡°Two minutes more, and I¡¯m done.¡± He updated with a wink. When he was getting ready, Roselet picked the wet towel from the bed and ced it on theundry box. ¡°Done!! I¡¯m ready for our date.¡± Calvin said, throwing theb mindlessly. ¡°Callvvinnnn.¡± She gave him an irritating look. ¡°Opppss!! Sorry, Mom.¡± He ced theb in its right ce. ***** ¡°I think you should get married,¡± Roselet said when they were getting married. ¡°What? Why?¡± Calvin eximed while feeding his daughter. ¡°Because you need a mommy. Someone to look after you. 24*7.¡± Roselet replied, chewing the food. ¡°And what about you? Don¡¯t you need one? Hmm.¡± ¡°No. I have you.¡± Roselet replied and hid her face in his shirt. Calvin softly caressed her hair and kissed her hair. ¡°And I can take care of myself, unlike you.¡± ¡°Very funny!! I behave like that because I like when you scold me like my cute little mommy.¡± She giggled, hearing it. * . #TBC 5 Both father and daughter finished their dinner giggling and smiling. Calvin sent her with Nelina, her nanny so that she could change Roselet¡¯s clothes, and then he read bedtime stories to her, but he fell asleep before her. She slowly woke up and saw Calvin sleeping. ¡®Daddy might be feeling too tired tonight.¡¯ She thought. ¡°Keanu, help your human body to settle in the bed properly.¡± She said to Calvin¡¯s wolf, and soon, Calvin sleptfortably. After which, she ced the nket on his body andy beside him. ¡°Good night, both of you!!¡± She mumbled, yawning. ¡®Moon Goddess! Send Mommy for daddy, please.¡¯ She prayed before sleeping. Later at night, when Calvin woke up, he found himself sleepingfortably and his love sleeping beside him. He covered her with a nket properly before sleeping again. * On the other side!! Someone moved her fingers. ¡°Inform Doctor Liara that her patient is now out of the Coma!!¡±, A junior doctor said to Nurse, observing the hand movement of thedy who was in thea. * The next morning!! Calvin silently left Roselet¡¯s room for morning training with the pack members without disturbing her sleep. When he returned after a few hourster, he asked about her studies with Nelina so that he would have an idea about homework and the things that were going on in her ss. ¡°By the way, Calvin!! I hope you remember about my retirement.¡± Nelina reminded him, on which he groaned. ¡°You really have to leave?¡± ¡°Yes, son!! I worked with your family when Caroline was five or six years old, and now her daughter is around that age. Now, my husband doesn¡¯t want me to work and rest from every work. And I won¡¯t lie, even I want to spend the remaining time of my life with him now, only him.¡± ¡°Hmm. Even though I want to be selfish, I can¡¯t. Anyway, now that you want to take retirement, then please find a nanny just like you in another term, PERFECT.¡± Calvin said, checking the refrigerator so that he would prepare breakfast for his love. He checked the schedule and found that it was ¡®Noodles¡¯ in the breakfast. ¡°Last week, I cooked Soba Noodles, didn¡¯t I?¡± ¡°Yes!!¡± ¡°Perfect then, I will prepare Egg Noodles today.¡± Calvin finalized and started preparing coffee for him. ¡°Why don¡¯t you think of marrying someone? You¡¯re already thirty-two now.¡± Nelina suggested. ¡°I mean, getting a mommy for Rose is better than a nanny.¡± ¡°Do you think that I haven¡¯t thought about it? Or Mom or Dad?¡± Calvin chuckled. ¡°Women who are interested in me don¡¯t want Rose, and those who are interested in Rose, like single mothers, Rose doesn¡¯t want them.¡± He said, sipping his coffee. ¡°Rose wants someone who loves me and cares for me, which thedies like single mothers or broken women don¡¯t want to do because they don¡¯t want to give a second chance to their life. So, topics end there.¡± Calvin said with a smile. ¡°To be honest, Rose is the best thing that happened to me. I thought Moon Goddess punished me by sending her into my life but¡­ but I was stupid to understand that she was a blessing then. Now I understand why dad loves his daughters more than his sons.¡± ¡°By the way, have you found anything about HER?¡± Nelina asked to know about the search operation that Calvin had started the night he had found Roselet. ¡°Nope. Nothing.¡± Calvin replied, shaking his head. ¡°I have visited more than a hundred packs in the past five years but haven¡¯t sensed the other scent that my daughter has. If I¡¯m not wrong then, dad, Artemis, and Aunt Ba also didn¡¯t find anyone that particr scent.¡± ¡°I think she died or something; otherwise, we would have found her in all these years.¡± He concluded. ¡°Or maybe, you should change the way of searching her, or maybe she is not a pack wolf?¡± Nelina suggested. ¡°I don¡¯t think she is an urban wolf or Rouge because, as per my calction, I met her during the mating ball, which is held twice a year for pack wolves in search of their mate,¡± Calvin mumbled. ¡°But there can be chances that she can be banished from the pack, which might have turned her rougeter, or she left the pack willing to stay in the human world as an urban wolf.¡± ¡°Oh no!!¡± Calvin groaned. ¡°I didn¡¯t think that way. And if what you are saying is right, then there is no way I can find her between humans of around 8 billion in the whole world and rouges¡­ those wild, misbehaved animals hears no one and take orders from no one. On the top, their way of living¡­.¡± ¡°We all know how they live, but at the same time, you know who can help you,¡± Nelina said and left from there to resume her other words.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Lee?¡± Calvin mumbled and recalled his father¡¯s order. ¡®If anyone will keep contact with her, then I will break all my ties with that person.¡¯ After finishing the coffee, Calvin left the kitchen to wake his love, who could stay awake like an owl but hates waking in the morning. *** ¡°Here, daddy!! I¡¯m all done.¡± Roselet said, passing her te to Calvin, leaving one-fourth te of noodles to eat. ¡°I told you earlier that you won¡¯t be eating this much,¡± Calvin told her, on which she pouted. He finished her leftovers, and since it was off for both of them, Calvin did his work on the other side of the table while Roselet was busy drawing. ¡°Need my help?¡± He asked between his work. ¡°No, daddy.¡± She replied. ¡°This is the nth number of times you¡¯re asking the same thing.¡± ¡°the nth number of times you¡¯re asking the same thing.¡± he mimicked her words and returned back to his work. . #TBC 6 He watched her leave the chair silently after a while. ¡°Daddy, I¡¯m full.¡± Roselet passed half sandwich to him. ¡°Learn to finish all your food, sweetheart,¡± Calvin said to her, but not to waste the food he ate it. After an hour!! ¡°Calvin, I don¡¯t want to eat this piece of cake anymore,¡± Roselet said, passing him a chocte cake that he couldn¡¯t deny, and ate that again. After that, Roselet went out to y with other pups.Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. ¡°What are you preparing for lunch?¡± Calvin asked after taking a break from his work. ¡°Grandma Nelina!!¡± Roselet came running after ying with her friends. ¡°Please give me some cookies and milk.¡± ¡°Rose, if you will eat those things now, then you won¡¯t eat your lunch properly.¡± ¡°Please, Calvin!! I promise to eat my lunch properly.¡± ¡°Fine!! But you eat so many snacks.¡± Calvin said, on which Roselet pouted. After eating one cookie and half a ss of milk, she silently passed it to Calvin again, on which she received a re from her dad this time. * At the time of lunch!! Roselet made sure to finish each and everything on her te while Calvin was ying with his food. He was already so full, and he hadn¡¯t done any workout between morning to noon. ¡°See, Calvin. I kept my promise and finished my lunch.¡± She said proudly. ¡°Good. I¡¯m proud of you.¡± ¡°But why are you not eating anything?¡± ¡°Because I¡¯m not feeling so hungry,¡± Calvin replied, not ming her who was the reason behind his situation. He sat to eat with her only topany her because not every day he used to get a chance to have lunch with her because of his work, of course. ¡°I know why?¡± Roselet said, nodding her head. ¡°Why?¡± Calvin asked in amusement, thinking she would take the me for everything and might promise not to repeat the same. ¡°Because you ate so many snacks.¡± Roselet med him. ¡°What?¡± Calvin looked at the little devil in disbelief. ¡°Yes. Please finish all the food on your te because we should waste the food.¡± Roselet said, more like ordered. ¡°Okay, Mommy.¡± Calvin agreed while both his wolf and he was amused by his love¡¯s smartness. * Roselet yawned after Calvin ced her on the bed for an afternoon nap. ¡°Feeling sleepy already?¡± Calvin asked to which she nodded her head. ¡°Also, I¡¯m feeling tired,¡± Roselet said, to which Calvin smiled and started pressing her tiny legs with the palms of his hand. ¡°You¡¯re the best daddy, Calvin.¡± ¡°And you¡¯re the best daughter, love. Now sleep peacefully.¡± After half an hour, Calvin left her room, closing the door silently. ¡°Nelina, pack Rose¡¯s luggage for a day. I have informed Caro; she wille here by evening to take Rose with her.¡± ¡°Okay. Does she know where you are going?¡± ¡°No. But she will understand on her own.¡± Calvin replied, walking away from there. ¡®Strange, father understands the unasked question of his daughter that where is her Mommy? And the daughter understands the sudden disappearance of her father that he went to search for her Mommy.¡¯ Nelina thought. * ¡°But where are we going?¡± Zordan asked when Calvin asked him to pack his clothes for the day and some necessary things that they might need on their trip. ¡°Can¡¯t you just apany me without asking anything?¡± Calvin questioned him back. ¡°Still, mate, I need to tell mom and dad about it. So that they will look after the pack in our absence.¡± ¡°Exactly. That¡¯s the reason I¡¯m not telling you, Zordy. Uncle Bruce is a good friend of dad, and he will vomit everything if he asks anything from Uncle Bruce.¡± Calvin responded. ¡°So, in short, you are not hiding the name of the ce from me but from Uncle Brandon,¡± Zordan concluded and started using his mind to what could be the reason for hiding anything from Brandon Haysbert, Calvin¡¯s father. ¡°You¡¯re going somewhere where Uncle Brandon doesn¡¯t want you to go because it is dangerous orrrrrr forbidden.¡± Immediately his eyes widened in shock when he realized where exactly his Alpha was nning to take him. ¡°We are going to ck council.¡± He asked more like stated, to which Calvin didn¡¯t react anything. He took out the map and packed it in the bag. ¡°Alpha, there can be chances that we will never return from that hellhole.¡± ¡°CHANCES!! It¡¯s not confirmed, right?¡± Calvin reminded him. ¡°And don¡¯t forget that Liara stays there, so we mighte out of there safely.¡± ¡°MIGHT? Seriously?¡± Zordan faked hisugh. ¡°I won¡¯t force you toe with me then. Stay here and look after the pack. I¡¯m going there for sure.¡± Calvin said, picking up his bag and walking out of the packhouse while Zordan followed him. Calvin threw his bag in the jeep, and he did the same. Calvin raised his eyebrow; looking at him on which, he spoke, ¡°I can¡¯t stay here quietly, knowing that out there you¡¯re going to hug the danger.¡± ¡°Come on! We will die together if we will have to.¡± Zordan said, grabbing the driving seat with a smile while deep down; both were scared of that ce because they were going to the scariest ce of werewolves ces. ck council, just like the name, it was all dark and the hub of the dark, evil, and heartless rouge werewolves where there was no basis for the rule. Only the powerful and strong werewolves could survive there. Calvin felt a twist in his stomach, thinking that his beloved sister used to stay there. No one had kept any rtion or connection with her for a while, and now he was going tond there all of a sudden. . #TBC 7 He didn¡¯t know whether he would even get a chance to meet her or not, but he had to try. He mentallyughed at himself, thinking how selfish he was; he didn¡¯t try to contact her all this time, but now when he needed her help, he was going to meet her. *** After traveling for more than twelve hours, Calvin pulled out the map that he had and followed the moon. No one knew the exact location of the ck Council because not every time any werewolves visited that ce, at least not at the hub of the rouges, and those who wanted toe there then they had to do extra work. ¡°Damn, the fog is too thick around this ce because of the river,¡± Zordan grumbled when he was about to hit the tree again. They both had left the jeep a way before and started trekking because of the hilly route. ¡°Be careful with your steps,¡± Calvin warned. The fog around them was so thick that even his wolf could see things more clearly. ¡°I think we are near. It is said that ck council is near if one could smell the scent of sandalwood.¡± He added. Both kept walking ahead for an hour more but couldn¡¯t find anything except for trees, fog, and the mountains. ¡°I think we are lost.¡± ¡°No. I don¡¯t think so. Keep moving. I¡¯m sure that your wolf can also smell their rotten scent.¡± ¡°Wow!! Commenting about our smell bying into our territory.¡± They heard and looked at the source of the voice but couldn¡¯t find anyone because of the damn fog, but whoever it was, he was on the top of the mountain. Thanks to superhuman hearing power, they heard that voice loud and clear. In the next moment, a man, a werewolf, of course, jumped from the top andnded on the ground in all ck, including his face. He had used ck color or paint on his face. ¡°I¡­¡± ¡°Doctor will be happy to see someone from her family here.¡± That man said, cutting Calvin in between. He didn¡¯t know that that man who recognized him this easily. Both Calvin and Zordan watched him, removing the stone from the mountain and scanning his eyes. In the next moment, the stone in front of the mountain was removed, showing them the way inside it. ¡®Holycow! Who could have thought that the ck council is inside the mountain.¡¯ Zordan mindlinked Calvin, who was thinking the same. The bags that they brought with them were kept with the strange man in ck, and then, they went through a security check just after entering the mountain-like council. Soon they were apanied by another male who was surely smelling like shit but looked fresh and had worn just a boxer. Well, what could anyone expect a werewolf to wear at two at night? ¡°Does your great father know that his son is here to meet his abandoned daughter?¡± he asked in a cold tone, more like taunted. ¡°No. He doesn¡¯t. And please don¡¯t tell him about the same.¡± Zordan replied instead of Calvin, to which that man didn¡¯t respond anything. After walking for a while, he reached the open area. Calvin saw that area was surrounded by mountains from all sides. After fifteen to twenty minutes of walking, they reached the biggest house in that area, surrounded by the small house around it. Once the door of that house opened, Calvin¡¯s jaw dropped, seeing the beauty of the house. He didn¡¯t expect to see anything like this. He couldn¡¯t count the time for how long he kept walking until finally they were asked to sit. Because of night, he could only see the guards, no one else. After a while, a robot approached them carrying water and juice in her hand. ¡°Oh, wow!! Here is a robot as well.¡± Zordan said and was ready to drink the juice when Calvin pped his hand, signaling him to keep his hand away from everything. ¡°Let him drink it, Calvin. I assure you that nothing is mixed in it.¡± Finally, Calvin heard the voice for which he was here. Calvin saw his sister carefully using her stair; at first, he couldn¡¯t understand her small baby step until his eyesnded on her small baby bump. ¡°Lee?¡± A smile appeared on his face; leaving the couch, he walked toward her and cupped her face, ¡°Moon Goddess! I didn¡¯t know that you were expecting.¡± ¡°To know that you had to keep in touch with her, you know.¡± Calvin raised his head and saw her mate, who looked annoyed with the disturbance in his sleep. ¡°Shut up and go to sleep.¡± Liara red at her mate, who wasn¡¯t in a very happy mood. He didn¡¯t say anything and returned back to his room. ¡°Don¡¯t mind him.¡± She muttered, looking at Calvin. ¡°I don¡¯t because he is right.¡± Calvin smiled meekly and hugged her. ¡°I¡¯m still not a hugger,¡± Liara said, and her voice started getting heavy. ¡°But never mind..¡± Her voice became heavy, and she hugged Calvin back. ¡°Thanks to Moon Goddess that you¡¯re here. I was going to send a message for you anyway.¡± Liara said, breaking the hug anding directly to the point. ¡°Why? About what?¡± Calvin looked at her in confusion. ¡°One of my patients is finally out of thea.¡± She said, to which Calvin looked at her in confusion, wondering where this conversation was heading. ¡°And¡­ her scent! Her scent is familiar to Rose. As we both know, that pup of the anyone has the scent of both mother and father until they grow older.¡± ¡°I know that. Do.. do you mean to say that you found the woman who gave birth to Rose?¡± Calvin asked in disbelief as he could that he had finally found HER. ¡°Yes!!¡± Liara nodded her head.Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. ¡°You¡¯re pregnant, and you needplete your sleep. Tell this to your idiot brother.¡± They heard a pissed male voice, at which Liara rolled her eyes. . #TBC 8 ¡°Umm¡­ yeah!! Your mate is right. You shouldplete your sleep first. I can wait here on the couch for the next few hours until you¡¯re awake.¡± Calvin said. ¡°Oh, shut up, both of you! And listen to me carefully.¡± Liara said before continuing. ¡°The name of your pup¡¯s mother is Ethlyn Smith.¡± ¡°Ethlyn Smith? Never heard this name before.¡± Calvin muttered. ¡°I have emailed a video of her in the hospital. Check your email to see her face. I hope you can recognize her then?¡± Liara suggested, on which Calvin pulled out his phone, but there was no signal on his mobile. ¡°Use the wifi and check the video then. The password is ¡­. ¡°Liara?¡± ¡°Moon Goddess, this man!!¡± Liara hissed. ¡°The password is Doctorliara@123. All the alphabet will be in the small letter except ¡®D.''¡± She added. ¡°I know you both are tired from the long journey, so Renee can show you the room if you want to stay.¡± ¡°We will be staying,¡± Zordan replied. ¡°Good night. See you in the morning.¡± ¡°Good night! Good night!!¡± Just after Liara left, ady appeared in front of them. ¡°This way.¡± She muttered angrily in a sleepy tone. After showing them the room, she left from there. ¡°I hope you don¡¯t mind staying here. I mean when we are already here then we can spend a night, right? The punishment from your dad will be the same in both cases.¡± Zordan exined, but Calvin didn¡¯t say anything about that connection with the wifi quickly to check the email. Zordan, too popped his head to see the video about which Liara had mentioned previously. It was the video clip of the CCTV camera of the hospital. He carefully watched a young girl who looked in her teenage or near eighteen or neen, walking out of the room. ¡°Is she the one?¡± Zordan asked, on which Calvin furrowed his eyebrow. ¡°Five years back, you slept with an underage then?¡± he questioned. ¡°Don¡¯t. Don¡¯t you dare say that? I don¡¯t remember seeing this girl ever in my life. I might not be in my sense that night, but I¡¯m positive that was not some thirteen or fifteen years girl for sure.¡± Calvin responded. ¡°Moreover, Lee said that that woman woke up from Coma, and observing her, I don¡¯t think she looks like she was in Coma.¡± Calvin reasoned out. After a while, they saw a young man walking out of the room with a doctor. ¡°Is he Rose¡¯s mother¡¯s mate?¡± Zordan questioned. ¡°Either you will keep quiet, or I will throw you out of the room.¡± Calvin hissed in irritation. ¡°But it looks like I have seen him somewhere.¡± ¡°Wow! Generally, you used to use that line by looking at any hot and sexy woman.¡± Zordanmented. ¡°I didn¡¯t know your way of flirting changed after all these five ye¡­ ¡± He shut his mouth when he saw observed Keanu on the surface. ¡°Sorry, Alpha.¡± They resumed watching the video, and then after taking a good amount of time, Zordan finally saw a woman in a wheelchair taken out of the room. ¡°I think she is the one.¡± He pointed out and looked at Calvin¡¯s eyes widened in shock and his left hand on his left cheek as if someone had given a tight p on his face. ¡°Alpha, do you know her?¡± But Calvin didn¡¯t hear him because all he could remember was a p on his face and the background song ying at that moment. ¡®My heart goes La di da, da di daBelongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. La di da, da di da La di da, da di da¡¯ * ¡°Alpha, do you know her?¡± Zordan asked again, shaking Calvin¡¯s shoulder. ¡°No,¡± Calvin replied. ¡°Neither I want to know anything about her. Moreover, there is no way she can be my daughter¡¯s mommy.¡± ¡°Why not?¡± Zordan asked in confusion. He tried to see the simrities between Roselet and the woman in the wheelchair, but he couldn¡¯t say the same with confidence. ¡°Because this woman would like to burn in the fire of hell than sleeping with me,¡± Calvin responded, closing the video. ¡°Ouchh!!¡± Zordan hissed in fake pain. It looked like somewhere in the past; their conversation didn¡¯t go well. ¡°But by any chance, she really turned out to be Rose¡¯s Mommy, then?¡± ¡°Then it¡¯s obvious that she left my princess just to teach me a lesson or because her mate didn¡¯t want to keep Rose as she already had a mate then.¡± Calvin tried to connect the dots, but he couldn¡¯t understand the fact that a wolf could cheat on her mate. And could that she-wolf this stoop low that she slept with him? The most important part was how the hell shended in the room in the room in which he was. ¡°Are you even listening to your own words?¡± Zordan asked in confusion, thinking the same thing that Calvin was thinking. ¡°Can you please sleep? I want to stay alone.¡± Calvin said, on which Zordan didn¡¯t disturb him even once and fell like a dead person on the bed while Calvin couldn¡¯t stop thinking about that she-wolf and thinking all this, he recalled the first meeting with her. * FLASHBACK!! * Everyone wasughing and smiling because of the wedding environment around them, and the groom was waiting for his bride toe as soon as possible. While Ethlyn was teasing her best friend, Ashley, who was going to marry the love of her life after a few minutes. ¡°Stop teasing me, Ethlyn,¡± Ashley whined, trying to hide her blush. ¡°You¡¯re my bridesmaid. Don¡¯t you have to walk down the aisle before me, hmm?¡± ¡°Ahh! You¡¯re in a hurry to send me away from here.¡± . #TBC 9 Ethlyn teased her again, but when her eyesnded on Ashley¡¯s father, who had just walked into her room, she spoke. ¡°I think I should be going now; Uncle is here.¡± With a wink, she left from there to join other bridesmaids Throughout the time, Ethlyn was happy for her friend and was imagining her wedding to be in the same way with her mate, Nathan. ¡°Ms. Ashley Garcia, do you take Christopher Nn as your husband?¡± The priest asked the bride. ¡°I do.¡± The priest looked at the groom before asking, ¡°Do you take Ashley Garcia as your wife?¡± ¡°I¡­¡± ¡°Christopher!!¡± Someone yelled the name of the groom as loudly as he could. Everyone looked at the guest who was thiste. And that person was no other than the reader¡¯s beloved Calvin Logan Haysbert, who had set a record for arriving or attending any ce at thest moment. His parents used to tell him the time of the meeting of 2-3 at noon when the actual meeting used to be at six in the evening so that he could make it in time. The color of Ashley¡¯s face paled, and Christopher smiled widely. After all, the best man was finally here. Calvin walked down the aisle, looking no less than a male model, which he used to be early days. He reached Christopher and hugged him. ¡°Congrattion, buddy!!¡± He congratted him, eyeing Ashley with a smirk. Ethlyn didn¡¯t miss anything that was happening. She had sensed the change in Ashley¡¯s posture from the groom¡¯s best man was here. Also, she didn¡¯t miss the groom¡¯s best man was a werewolf as well. ¡°I got you something for you as an early wedding gift.¡± ¡°Thanks, mate. But let the wedding¡­¡± Christopher tried to stop him so that he could marry Ashley first, but he stopped speaking when Calvin took out sexy panties from his suit. ¡°What the hell, Calvin?¡± ¡°Oops! I¡¯m sorry. This is actually for Ashley.¡± Calvin said innocently, looking at him, and then smirked, looking at Ashley. ¡°What rubbish?¡± Christopher shouted, getting angry at his friend. ¡°What kind of behavior is this?¡± Ashley¡¯s father yelled angrily. ¡°What kind of friends do you have, Christ?¡± Ashley¡¯s brother yelled. ¡°Don¡¯t ask any questions to Christopher,¡± Calvin said with an evil smile. ¡°Trust me; my friend is equally confused and angry at this moment. But for everyone¡¯s kind information. I¡¯m not gifting used panties to Ashley, but this panty actually belongs to Ashley that she left in my suit after spending a passionate night with me yesterday.¡± ¡°How dare you?¡± Ashley¡¯s father was ready to kick Calvin¡¯s ass for tanning his daughter¡¯s character. ¡°Rx, Mr. Garcia. Instead of shouting and yelling at me, why don¡¯t you ask about it with your daughter? Ask her where she was at her bachelorette party. Was she with her girlsst night? Hmm?¡± Calvin questioned, smiling at Ashley. He looked at all the girls, ¡°So girls, answer Mr. Garcia? Was Ashley with you all, hmm?¡± Ethlyn could smell that whatever the werewolf was saying was true, and the worst part was it was Ashley¡¯s panties because it had her scent on them. She knew Ashley had disappeared in the middle of the party, stating that she had to spend some quality time with HIM, but at that moment, she thought that HIM would be Christopher, not this unknown third party. ¡°Is he telling the truth?¡± Ashley¡¯s father asked, feeling embarrassed. ¡°Yes¡­ yes, Uncle.¡± ¡°No, Uncle.¡± Everyone told him the truth except Ethlyn. ¡°Ash was with mest night.¡± She lied again. Calvin raised his brow at this voice and turned his head to look at the face of a new liar, and he must admit that the she-wolf telling Ashley¡¯s father was a beautiful liar. He whistled, looking at her from top to bottom before speaking, ¡°Really? Ash was with youst night, sweetheart?¡± he questioned. ¡°Yes, she was with me.¡±N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°It funny to hear lies when you already know the truth. I had read it somewhere, and right now, I¡¯m witnessing it.¡± Calvin said with a smile. ¡°By the way, if you¡¯re sure that YOUR ASH was with you, then I think I should show everyone the video ofst night when I was fucking Ashley to see who is speaking the truth at this moment,¡± he added, showing his phone. Everyone was taken aback hearing it, especially Ashley and Ethlyn. Ethlyn quickly reached near her best friend before speaking, ¡°What the hell is he speaking, Ash? Give me one hint, and I swear that I will break all his bones today.¡± She hissed in anger, to which Ashley didn¡¯t reply anything to her and started crying. Ethlyn hugged her and red at Calvin, who obviously didn¡¯t y the video in front of everyone but yes, in front of Christoper for sure. But everyone near him could hear the loud, pleasuring, and crying voice of Ashley, who was begging Calvin to fuck her. ¡°Why did you do this, Ash?¡± Ethlyn hissed in anger. ¡°Why? That too just a few hours before the wedding?¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry. It¡¯s just a mistake. I was drunk and¡­ I¡¯m sorry. I didn¡¯t want all this to happen.¡± Ashley cried. ¡®Sure! This werewolf has to do something with it.¡¯ Ethlyn thought, ring at Calvin. ¡®Even if something happened between themst night, what was his motive for filming everything? He could have talked about it with Ashley personally instead of creating a scene?¡¯ ¡°Christ, my friend, how many times have I told you that this girl doesn¡¯t love you and is marrying you just because of money? Hell, one of her boyfriends killed himself because of her, because she left him to marry you, but you were not ready to listen to me.¡± Calvin said to his friend. . #TBC 10 ¡°Ashley, baby!! I¡¯m sorry. I wanted to show him what kind of woman you¡¯re. You threw yourself at me by realizing that I¡¯m richer than your would-be husband. But what did I do? I used and threw you. Aww! I feel so bad for you.¡± Calvin said, showing his fake care and concern toward Ashley. All of a sudden, someone pped him tightly, and at the same time, someone¡¯s phone started ringing. ¡®My heart goes La di da, da di da La di da, da di da La di da, da di da My heart goes La di da, da di da La di da, da di da La di da, da di da My heart goes¡¯ ¡°Don¡¯t you have mother and sister at home?¡± Calvin had stopped smiling for a second, but he started smiling again and looked at the angry beauty in front of him.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°I have both mother and sister at my home, but neither of them is characterless, you see!¡± he replied, rubbing his cheek. ¡°And I have no respect for a woman just because she is WOMAN. I would surely have respected Ashley if she would have been a prostitute, and sleeping with rich men for money would have been her work,¡± he added with a smirk. ¡°Youuuu¡± Ethlyn was about to p him again when Calvin held her wrist tightly. ¡°Just because you got a chance to p me once. Have you assumed my cheek as your private property? Hmm?¡± Calvin asked while Ethlyn tried to get her from his grip using her wolf¡¯s power. She sensed that the werewolf was some Alpha because he was using his power to hold her wrist. ¡°Leave my wrist.¡± She hissed. ¡°Why? I thought you were enjoying touching me. I don¡¯t mind sleeping with you. Trust me; I¡¯m too good in bed.¡± Calvin proposed his offer shamelessly, thinking her the same as her friend, Ashley. ¡°I will like to burn in the fire of hell instead of sleeping with you.¡± Ethlyn hissed, making Calvin chuckle. ¡°Really? Are you sure you want to reject my offer?¡± Calvin asked again. ¡°Leave my hand, you moron. I already have a mate.¡± Ethlyn responded; hearing it, Calvin left her wrist. ¡°I hope you won¡¯t cheat on him just like your best friend.¡± Calvin joked at looked at Christopher, who had broken the marriage and was ready to leave from the venue leaving Ashley. ¡°Let¡¯s go, buddy!! It¡¯s better to cry now than cry by marrying the wrong woman your whole life,¡± he said, keeping his hand on Christopher¡¯s shoulder and started taking him with him. * FLASHBACK ENDS * ¡°You didn¡¯t sleep, did you?¡± Calvin came out of this thought, hearing Zordan¡¯s voice. ¡°What were you thinking, by the way?¡± he asked another question. ¡°That I don¡¯t want a characterless Mommy for my princess!! Neither I¡¯m going to tell Rose about it.¡± Calvin said in determination. ¡°The woman who can cheat on her mate is someone with whom I don¡¯t want to keep any rtionship, not even as a mother of my pup. And to be honest, I¡¯m d that she left my pup outside my pack.¡± Zordan just kept looking at me in confusion. ¡°From today onward, the chapter of searching for Rose¡¯s mommy is closed in my life.¡± With this, he walked into the washroom while Zordan just kept staring at him. ¡®The chapter is closed in your life, but what about the other side? What if Ethlyn Smith starts looking for her pup now?¡¯ He wondered. . #TBC . Thank you for reading ?? Do leave your review and gems on the story. 11 Nathan was looking at the sleeping figure of Ethlyn and recalling her betrayal. At first, he was mad at her for doing this to him, but in all these years, he felt that Ethlyn had lost a lot more things than anyone could. First, her Luna¡¯s position; second, her pack; third, her respect; fourth, her twin¡¯s pups; and then fifth, her wolf. He couldn¡¯t help but feel pity for her. He sat beside her and spoke, ¡°Wake up, Ethlyn. You¡¯re sleeping like Aurora even after waking from Coma.¡± ¡°What are you doing here?¡± He heard Reva asking him angrily. ¡°I learned from your father that she is out of the Coma. That¡¯s why I thought to check on her.¡± Nathan replied while Reva kept ring at him. ¡°Stop giving me that look, Reva. It¡¯s not that your sister is in this condition because of me.¡± ¡°Only if you wouldn¡¯t have kicked her out of the pack.¡± Reva snared. ¡°I had sent the search team for her when I realized that I shouldn¡¯t have done that to her; I mean, at least not in her pregnancy state when she couldn¡¯t shift and could easily be anyone¡¯s victim.¡±N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. Reva wanted to open her mouth and me him for sending the search team hourste, but then she kept her mouth shut because she knew it was easy to me than to stand in that person¡¯s shoes and understand his shoes. That was the reason her parents were not mad at Nathan. Both families were close, that¡¯s why her parents considered him as their son, and she considered Nathan a big brother until he put her father in a cell and kicked her sister out. That was a different thing that he tried to undo everything that he did after he calmed down but¡­ but the damage had already been done. Nathan recalled how he fumed in anger and ran all across the forest in his wolf in the rain. He ran for god knows how long in the rain, his wolf howled in pain, and finally, he got tired from running. Because of his thick fur, he wasn¡¯t feeling cold even after staying in the rain for that long. That was when the realization hit like a train, reminding him what if she wouldn¡¯t have reached her lover¡¯s ce? What if she would be still in the rain? He immediately mind-linked his Beta to send a search team for Ethlyn in the range of the next fifteen-twenty kilometers. Because of heavy rain, the scent of Ethlyn and her footmarks were hard to find, but they sensed that she had fallen from the mountain. It took a couple of days to find Ethlyn¡¯s body which was heavily injured, and she was barely breathing. * FLASHBACK * ¡°Doctor, how¡¯s Ethlyn?¡± Christian, who was released from the cell on the same night, asked the pack doctor. ¡°One of her pups is dead. Everyone thought she was pregnant with only one pup, but another one was hidden behind the first one, and sadly, the boy is no more,¡± She responded, to which Christian gasped, and Abigail, Ethlyn¡¯s mother, ignored that part. She was more worried for her daughter than the pup, who was the reason because of why Ethlyn was in this state. ¡°And the condition of the other pup, i. e., the girl, is not great as well because of pre-matured delivery. She is not able to breathe on her own.¡± The doctor told them about the other pup. ¡°I¡¯m here to know about my daughter¡¯s health. Not about the pups whose mere existence is a curse for my daughter.¡± Abigail said in irritation. Christian red at her. ¡°Okay. Ethlyn¡¯s condition is not great itself. Her head is badly injured, and the worst part is that her wolf is not able to heal her, nor can we sense her.¡± The doctor responded. ¡°I¡¯m not sure, but I think her wolf sacrificed her life to save one of her pups.¡± ¡°No!!¡± Abigail gasped, cing her hand on her mouth and shaking her head, not able to believe that his daughter¡¯s wolf sacrificed her wolf to save someone who had no existence in anyone¡¯s life. Hell, she would never look at that brat¡¯s face for this. ¡°By then, she can recover at normal speed?¡± Christian asked. ¡°To be honest, I don¡¯t know the answer to your question because she needs treatment from a neurologist, not some normal doctor like us.¡± Christian nodded his head, not knowing what to say about that part. A part of negative him was saying that his daughter couldn¡¯t leave the bed ever in her life because rarely any werewolves think of bing neurologists by studying for hours instead of doing something else. * A week had passed since that day, and there was a change in the health of Ethlyn, while her daughter had started showing positive responses by staying under observation at the hospital. ¡°Did you hear that?¡± Abigail asked, entering the room while Ethlyn was sleeping in her deep sleep. ¡°What is it, Abby?¡± ¡°The doctor just informed me that I can take my granddaughter home in a day or two.¡± Abigail fumed in anger. ¡°I¡¯m telling this, Christ. I¡¯m not taking that curse to my home who ate my daughter¡¯s happiness, and when she was not done with it, she ate her brother as well.¡± ¡°What kind ofnguage is this, Abby? What is her mistake in all this thing?¡± Christian asked in disbelief. ¡°Just like you¡¯re worried for your pup being a mother. It was Ethlyn and her wolf¡¯s choice to keep their pup as a priority before them.¡± Christian exined. ¡°I don¡¯t care whether there¡¯s her fault or not, but it¡¯s final that I¡¯m not keeping her. She will remind me of my daughter¡¯s miserable state. That¡¯s why I have found a way to get rid of her.¡± ¡°Get rid of her?¡± Christian asked in shock. . #TBC 12 ¡°Yes, I have found with Nathan that who is the reason behind our daughter¡¯s pregnancy?¡± ¡°What? Who is that?¡± ¡°Alpha Calvin Haysbert of Blood Moon Pack.¡± Abigail hissed in anger. ¡°Nathan would have dered war against him, but it¡¯s our daughter¡¯s mistake to enter his room. That¡¯s why we can¡¯t do anything about it, and by observing the CCTV video, it looks like Ethlyn wasn¡¯t in her sense, and that¡¯s why that bastard took advantage of her situation.¡± ¡°Now, he will get the result of what he did to our daughter.¡± ¡°???¡± Christian. ¡°He has a habit of sleeping with other¡¯s daughter; now it¡¯s time to taste the result of his own medicine.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t think that¡¯s a good idea,¡± Christian suggested. ¡°I don¡¯t think Ethlyn will like this. I mean, don¡¯t you think it should be her decision?¡± ¡°She is not awake to take that decision. And I¡¯m taking this decision in her absence, her mother. I don¡¯t want to keep that pup. Hell, I don¡¯t even want to look at her. So, since she can¡¯t stay with her mother, she will stay with her father.¡± ¡°But what if that Alpha rejects her to keep with him or doesn¡¯t ept her as his daughter?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t care. It will be that pup¡¯s destiny, then. I will feel pity for her then.¡± Abigail started with hatred for her granddaughter. Christian didn¡¯t want to support her in her decision, but at the same time, he didn¡¯t want to keep his grandaughter in a such atmosphere where she wouldn¡¯t be treated right. He left everything at Moon Goddess, who knew what best for her every pup was. * shback ends!! * Christian was thinking all this thing by staying out of Ethlyn¡¯s room. It had been five years since that incident. No one knew except him that he had been silently keeping eyes on Calvin to see whether he was taking good care of his granddaughter or not, and he was feeling proud of Abigail¡¯s wrong decision, which turned out to be the best for his granddaughter. He smiled, thinking about Roselet, whom he had met twice as a stranger. ¡®I don¡¯t know what I¡¯m going to tell you about your daughter, Ethlyn.¡¯ he thought in his mind. Everyone had lost their hope that she would awake again until they heard the name of the new Neurologist, Laira Wayne, in the ck Council, who also happened to be the youngest Neurologist in the world of werewolves. It was hard to believe that any Rouge could be that educated until they found that she started living in the ck council just because of her mate. She was born and brought up in a pack and human world. Christian didn¡¯t want to leave any tiny hope if it was concerned with Ethlyn¡¯s health.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. After two sessful surgeons, Liara¡¯s treatment showed its effect. Abigail and Christian wanted to personally thank her when Ethlyn woke out of aa for the first time, but the floor slipped from their feet when they came to know the full name of the Neurologist treating Ethlyn, Laira Daisy Haysbert Wayne. Abigail suggested quickly shifting Ethlyn from the hospital of the ck council to their own pack¡¯s hospital. She didn¡¯t want Ethlyn¡¯s past to strike her anywhere in her life again, not after when she was finally awake after years, not after when Nathan didn¡¯t hold any grudge of whatever happened in the past, and Abigail could picture them together in the future again. ¡°It seems like she is not going to open her eyes in your presence,¡± Revamented, feeling irritated. ¡°Really? I didn¡¯t know you were going to be the next doctor of the pack.¡± Nathan spoke sarcastically and stood up on his feet. ¡°Stay here then; I have some other work.¡± ¡°I have some other work.¡± Reva mimicked him after he left. ¡°Dad, why are you standing out? Come in.¡± She said. ¡®How could I meet Ethlyn¡¯s eyes if she would wake up after my arrival and ask about her pup? What would I tell her?¡¯ Christian wondered. ¡°Daddddd,¡± Reva yelled. ¡°Dad,¡± Ethlyn whispered, widening Reva¡¯s eyes, and who quickly looked toward Ethlyn to check whether she really heard her voice. Reva smiled widely when she realized Ethlyn was trying to open her eyes after a sleep of twelve hours again. ¡°Dad, Ethlyn is looking for you.¡± Reva cried happily, and hearing it, Christian walked into the room. ¡°If I would have known that by sending Alpha Nathan and by shouting DAD, you are going to wake up, then I would have done that long ago.¡± Reva talked with her sister, who had opened her half eyes by then. ¡°Where¡­ where is my.. Pup?¡± Ethlyn asked the first question that Christian was expecting her to ask. * Ethlyn wanted to cry in pain when her stomach hit the ground again, and this didn¡¯t stop there; she started rolling like a ball on the slope of the mountain, but no voice wasing out of her mouth. She wanted to shout for help, but she couldn¡¯t. It looked like her voice had died or something had happened. That was when she heard a familiar voice speaking, ¡°Dad, why are you standing out? Come in.¡± ¡®Reva?¡¯ She wondered and tried to speak but failed again. ¡°Daddddd,¡± Reva yelled, and with a lot of struggle, Ethlyn spoke, more like whispered. ¡°Dad,¡± She opened her eyes slowly, sweating badly. The incident that happened years back was somewhere fresh in her memory. She was breathing heavily and looked around and realized that she was in the hospital, but the room in the hospital was different from yesterday¡¯s one. ¡°Ethlyn.¡± She saw her father reaching toward her to check on her. ¡°How are you feeling, sweetheart?¡± he asked but instead of answering him. She observed him carefully. He looked old and a little different. . #TBC 13 ¡°Dad¡­¡± She spoke, and her voice came like a hoarse one. Christian gave her water to drink. ¡°Where¡­ where is my.. Pup?¡± She asked the first thing that was on her mind. ¡°Hey!! Even I¡¯m here. Don¡¯t ignore me like I¡¯m Miss Invisible.¡± Reva whined, changing the topic. She didn¡¯t know what exactly her parents did in the past. All she was told was that both pups of Ethlyn couldn¡¯t make it. Ethlyn watched her sister carefully, who didn¡¯t look like a teenager anymore but a grown-up woman. ¡®How long I was out?¡¯ She wondered. ¡°Ethlyn, baby!! You just woke up and started worrying again, just like yesterday. You should take some rest.¡± Christian added, caressing his daughter¡¯s hair. ¡°Reva, go and call the doctor.¡± ¡°Okay, dad.¡± ¡°I.. I feel like¡­ I¡¯ve been resting for years,¡± Ethlyn replied with a sigh. She tried to lift her hand, but it looked li had been jammed. ¡°You and Reva look.. looks older. What¡¯s the date today?¡± She questioned, trying to keep her eyes open. ¡°28th September.¡± ¡°28th September?¡± Ethlyn looked at his father in surprise. ¡°I was out for around eight months. Maybe because I healed at the speed of a human, that¡¯s why. I remembered Cinder sacrificing her life to save our pup because of extreme internal bleeding.¡± She concluded and felt empty because of theck of her wolf. ¡°My pup is a boy¡­ or girl, dad?¡± ¡°I¡­ I couldn¡¯t find his or her gender on the day when it was going to be relieved.¡± She muttered and recalled the horrible memories of her life. ¡°After a few couples, he or she will be one.¡± Ethlyn smiled, thinking that she was feeling slight pain in her brain because of the surgery, which hadn¡¯t healed properly. ¡°What¡­ what is his or her name, dad?¡± She asked again. Throughout the time, she was asking about her pup, and Christian couldn¡¯t just break the news to her that her pups were no more, which was nned by Abigail. He had no idea how she would take that news, not when it was asked not to stress her about anything. Before Christian would have answered her, the doctor walked in to check on her along with Abigail. ¡°Oh, Moon Goddess, she is now finally awake for real,¡± Abigail eximed without catching her breath. It looked like she did a little marathon to reach near her. The doctor checked her vitals and shined a small shlight in front of her eyes, and moved his finger. ¡°Ms. Smith, can you hear me? Can you follow my finger, please?¡± The doctor asked to which Ethlyn narrowed her eyes. Didn¡¯t the other doctor ask almost the same question when she woke up yesterday? But she nodded her head. After a couple of minutes, even Nathan came with his mother into her room, knowing that she was awake. By observing every one of her packs, she realized that she was in her previous pack and also the fact that there was a higher chance that she had slept for just eight months. ¡®All my family members are here, then where is my pup? Is he or she with some nanny at home?¡¯ She wondered and observed everyone¡¯s expression, and which was happy to see her. Her father wasn¡¯t legging go of her hand and stayed by her side as long as the medical team kept checking on her again.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°As expected, her vitals are normal, and she is indeedpletely awake.¡± The doctor said with a smile. ¡°I told you the sess rate of Doctor Wayne is 99. 8%. Ms. Smith was being treated by the best.¡± He added before asking Ethlyn, ¡°How do you feel, Ethlyn?¡± ¡°Drowsy but¡­ better than yesterday.¡± Behind the doctor, Reva squealed, totally excited. ¡°Great. Wee back to second life, Ms. Smith.¡± Saying this, the doctor left. Ethlyn narrowed her eyes, recalling the doctor that she met yesterday. Sheined to him about her body feeling heavy, on which he had said. ¡®That is perfectly normal in your condition. We will have to work on your reeducation, of course, but overall, this is¡­ That is a great return. And your body takes some time to adjust, but it will for sure.¡¯ ¡°Ethlynn!!!¡± Reva almost jumped on her sister to hug her. ¡°Reva! Careful.¡± Abigail scolded her and then reached near her daughter to touch her and feel her after years, while Ethlyn just observed everyone silently. ¡°How do you feel, sweetheart?¡± Asked Abigail in a soft voice. ¡°I¡¯m okay, Mom. But¡­ what happened to you all? You all look so different, especially Reva. She looks like ady of neen or twenty years old instead of just sixteen, even her figure¡­.¡± ¡°I know. I look sexy now.¡± Reva said, posing like a model with a pout. ¡°Just in eight months, you turned from a teenage to a woman?¡± Ethlyn asked, still trying to absorb this news. Revaughed awkwardly and looked at everyone. ¡°Who is going to tell her?¡± ¡°Tell me what?¡± Ethlyn questioned. ¡°Are you on some medicine to increase your breast and look adult or have you gone through some¡­ some surgery?¡± She asked. When Christian signaled Reva to go ahead, she spoke, ¡°Ethlyn, I¡¯m sorry to say that both your assumption is wrong. I look like a grown-updy because I¡¯m now really a grown-up. You just didn¡¯t miss eight months of your life, but you missed four years and eight months of your life. You stayed in thea for 56 months and over 8-9 days, sister.¡± ¡®Moon Goddess¡­ almost five years? I was asleep for that long. I¡­ I missed so much rted to my pup. I would have to apologize to him or her, and what if he or she wouldn¡¯t forgive me?¡¯ . #TBC 14 ¡®I would have to apologize to him or her, and what if he or she wouldn¡¯t forgive me?¡¯ Ethlyn thought and looked at her father. ¡°Where is my pup, dad? I¡­ I have to apologize to him or her for¡­ for not having with him or her when she or he would have missed or wanted me the most.¡± ¡°Moon Goddess!! What kind of mother I am. I don¡¯t even know whether my pup is a boy or girl.¡± She said and wiped the tears. ¡°Mom, dad!! Answer me something.¡± ¡°Ethlyn, sweetheart!!¡± Abigail thought to answer that question because, looking at the face of her mate, it looked like he was ready to spill the beans any moment. ¡°The doctor couldn¡¯t save your pup.¡± She said, cupping, Ethlyn¡¯s face. The excitement, happiness, sadness, and all other expression wiped from Ethlyn¡¯s face were wiped in a second after hearing this. * Calvin thought of spending some time with his sister rather than sleeping, and also he had to return back to his love as well. He couldn¡¯t stay away from her for long, and this was the both-way feeling; even Roselet couldn¡¯t stay away from him for more than a day. When he walked out of the room, he watched her sister throwing a tantrum. ¡°I don¡¯t want to eat anything.¡± She whined and walked here and there in the living room while her mate followed her with a te in his hand. ¡°Just a little, Liara. You need to eat something; you vomited everything that you ate in the morning.¡± ¡°Please!! I¡¯m requesting you.¡± ¡°I¡¯m doing the same. Come here, love.¡± Calvin¡¯s eyes widened in shock upon hearing this. Thest thing he remembered from his previous meeting, Liara¡¯s mate, didn¡¯t want her but Tiara. Liara shook her head and hid behind Calvin, teasing her mate. ¡°Give this te to me. I will make sure that she will finish everything.¡± Calvin offered his help, on which his brother-inw gave him a te, and left from there. ¡°Come here!!¡± Calvin said, holding her arms to make her sit on the couch. ¡°I don¡¯t want to eat.¡± ¡°All right, just seven spoons,¡± Calvin said, already calcting that how he could make her eat all the oats. He had a habit of handling his princess, so he knew how to make some eat the whole food. ¡°I promise, just seven spoons.¡± ¡°Okay! Seven spoons.¡± Liara agreed. ¡°So, you¡¯re happy with him?¡± He questioned, to which she nodded her head. ¡°But he didn¡¯t want you in the beginning as much as he was interested in Tee.¡± He pointed out. ¡°Sometimes things are not exactly what it looks like,¡± Liara said before adding. ¡°Sometimes our own eyes and ears can deceive us.¡± ¡°Ahh!! Maybe you¡¯re right. And how¡¯re you adjusting yourself in this¡­ hellhole?¡± ¡°Look around. Do you think that I¡¯m in hell?¡± Liara questioned. ¡°Dad¡­ I mean, his father started making changes in this ce from the moment I came here! Everyone around here is different but¡­ but not bad, at least, not his family members.¡± ¡°Does that mean others are bad?¡± Calvin asked in concern. Liara didn¡¯t reply to anything for a while. ¡°Tell me, Lee.¡± ¡°They are rouges, Calvin, and because of me, dad is making rules, changing ways of living, so yes, I¡¯m trouble in most of the rouge¡¯s eyes. But you don¡¯t have to worry about me. I can take care of myself, and my new family is with me.¡± Liara responded. Calvin clenched his jaw in anger but kept his mouth shut. ¡°By the way, I¡¯m full now.¡± She said, pushing the te away. ¡°But two spoons are still left.¡±Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. ¡°I¡¯m done, please. Or I will vomit all.¡± Liara said, making a face. Calvin didn¡¯t insist on her and finished her remaining oats. ¡°What the? Why are you eating my leftover food? You used to hate doing that.¡± ¡°Those habits are long gone. My love has a habit of tasting everything and then leaving it, so I now started eating leftovers.¡± Calvin chuckled. ¡°So, what have you thought about her Mommy?¡± Liara asked, smiling. ¡°That woman.¡± Calvin shook his head in a big NO. ¡°Don¡¯t tell me that you lost your taste in women after Rose¡¯s arrival. I found her beautiful and¡­¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want anyone to keep a beautiful Luna as a showpiece. At the end of the day, I believe in inner beauty more than outer appearance, and a woman who can sleep with some random person even when she has a mate is characterless in my life. And you don¡¯t know anything about her. I met her once before that night; of course, she was a best friend of a golddigger and character woman. Can you imagine that? On the top, she was trying to protect a witch like that even though she knew that her best friend was wrong and was lying.¡± With that, Calvin told her everything that had happened years back. ¡°You could have revealed her real face just in front of your friend as well instead of making that wedding an entertainment show,¡± Liara said to which Calvin rolled his eyes. ¡°I know you were doing the right thing, but by doing this, you created a situation in the wedding because of which you have no idea how much embarrassing it would have be for the bride¡¯s family members to get punished for nothing.¡± ¡°I¡­¡± ¡°Listen to me, big brother!! How will you feel if anyone will insult our parents for the mistake that you made?¡± Liara asked, stopping him from speaking. . #TBC 15 ¡°I can¡¯t believe that you have grown up this big. I mean, it was a matter of yesterday when I used to help you with your studies.¡± Calvin muttered, on which Liara smiled and nodded her head when someone approached her with a file in her hand. ¡°Here!! This is the medical report of Ethlyn, as well as background detail of her. I came to know that my wolf had sensed her as Rose¡¯s Mommy a long ago, but I didn¡¯t inform you about it because I wanted to wait till she woke from hera.¡± ¡°I won¡¯t try to change your thought about her, not when I don¡¯t know a thing about her and not when I know that one can never think positively about anyone unless he or she wants to think on his or her own. You will think about her in a negative way, then everything that she does, you will find a negative reason to point out her mistake.¡±N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°But, yes!! I would like to tell you one thing, Ethlyn was in aa for the past four years and eight months, so observing her medical history, it¡¯s clear that she never abandoned our Rose. Now, reading the file is all your wish.¡± ¡°She was in aa for four years and eight months? What the hell was her wolf doing? Why didn¡¯t she heal her human?¡± Calvin asked in shock because it was rare to hear any werewolves stay in aa for that long. And he was positive that she was a werewolf when they met for the first time. ¡°There is a nerve in our brains that connects humans with our wolves. With the help of that nerves, we can share our thoughts and talk with them at that the same time; it also connects humans with the wolf. So, whenever someone injects us wolfsbane, it affects that part of the nerve because of which¡­.¡± ¡°Can you not exin me in a medical way? But in a simple way?¡± ¡°The nerve in her brain that connect her wolf and her human body was damaged, because of which her wolf couldn¡¯t heal her,¡± Liara responded to him. ¡°Her wolf could have healed it in the first ce when it was damaged, but she gave more priority to something else or someone else, because of which Ethlyn¡¯s condition worsened.¡± ¡°Are you trying to say that Ethlyn was pregnant when she met with¡­ this ident?¡± ¡°Yes. I feel so. I couldn¡¯t dig out the internal things, but that¡¯s my experience and knowledge speaking.¡± Liara replied. ¡°I couldn¡¯t get a chance to check on her after she woke up. So, I¡¯m not sure whether she is awake after all this year because of her wolf¡¯s help or her own. Her parents ran away from our hospital as if they had seen some ghost.¡± ¡°Our hospital?¡± Calvin asked in surprise. ¡°You have a hospital in this ck Council.¡± ¡°Umm¡­ yeah!! I told you things are changing, and credit goes to me for that.¡± Liara smiled. ¡°So, what was I speaking about before? Yes, her parents¡­¡± ¡°Leave HER topic for a while. You haven¡¯t asked a thing about Mom, dad, and the rest of the family members?¡± Calvin asked, changing the topic. ¡°I know Mom and dad aren¡¯t happy by kicking me out. So, I don¡¯t have to ask about them, and I already knew what was going on in my sibling¡¯s life, so I didn¡¯t ask about any of them.¡± She replied, to which Calvin furrowed his eyebrow in confusion. ¡°He keeps me updated about everyone¡¯s life, you know.¡± Calvin caressed her cheek and kissed her forehead after leaning toward her. ¡°I didn¡¯t bring anything for you and for your pup or pups,¡± Calvin said, recalling how most of the time, their family had made a list of twins kids. ¡°But I do know what you both need the most, and I promise to get you that as soon as possible.¡± * ¡°The doctor couldn¡¯t save your pup.¡± This sentence triggered Ethlyn to the extent that she lost control of her mind and body, and out of nowhere, Cinder growled at her, taking control of Ethlyn¡¯s body. ¡°Lies.¡± She growled, jerking Abigail¡¯s hand away from Ethlyn¡¯s face. Everyone was taken aback by Cinder¡¯s presence. ¡°Enough of calm tone. Tell me, where is my pup?¡± ¡°Cinder, give the control back to your human,¡± Nathan ordered, on which she kept ring at him. ¡°Cinder¡­¡± He tried to use his Alpha¡¯s aura on her, on which she scoffed before speaking. ¡°You¡¯re not my Alpha. Neither am I your pack member.¡± She said without any ounce of emotion. ¡°Now, tell me the truth about my pup, or I will set the whole world on fir¡­.¡± Immediately she stopped speaking when she felt something injected into her body. She rolled her eyes and looked at Abigail, standing beside her with an injection in her hand. ¡°Mooommm,¡± Ethlyn whimpered in pain. ¡°Sleep, sweetheart,¡± Abigail whispered, caressing her hair and making her sleep on her bed properly. ¡°What was that, Mom, dad?¡± Reva asked in tension and confusion. ¡°Nothing, Reva. Your sister can¡¯t take the news of her pup¡¯s death; that¡¯s why she behaved like this.¡± Abigail answered. ¡°Yes, nothing serious, Reva. A mother inside Ethlyn got pissed, hearing rubbish for her pup. And if this mother won¡¯t be able to calm down, then just like she said, she will set the whole world on fire.¡± Christian taunted Abigial indirectly. . #TBC . Thank you for reading ?? Do leave a review/reviews on the story. 16 ¡°Daddddyyyy,¡± Roselet came running and jumped on Calvin like a little monkey. ¡°I missed you so much.¡± ¡°Aww!! I missed you so much, darling. Throughout the way, I was thinking about my love.¡± Calvin responded, carrying her in his arms, and started walking toward his room. ¡°Really? So, what did you bring for me?¡± She asked in excitement because Calvin always used to bring something for her whenever he used to stay away from her for at least a night. After reaching his room, he made her sit on the bed and pulled out a variety of choctes for her from his zer¡¯s pocket. ¡°Thank you, Calvin,¡± Roselet said, holding all the chocte in her tiny hand. ¡°I¡¯m not the right person whom you should thank, love. I did bring choctes for you, but it is from your Aunt Lee.¡± Calvin told her. Liara didn¡¯t want to send Calvin empty hand; after all, he came to visit her for the first time, but at that time, she had nothing precious and anything of his choice until she recalled how her mate had stocked the store room with everything that she liked and she hated because of her pregnancy craving. So, she gave a lot of choctes to both her niece and Calvin from her stock.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°Why didn¡¯t shee with you?¡± Roselet questioned. ¡°Is she still busy with her studies?¡± She asked. She had been told the same reason whenever she used to ask for Liara¡¯s presence at any family function. ¡°Yes!! She is busy with her studies.¡± ¡°I will make a thank you card for her,¡± Roselet said with a smile while Calvin chuckled, knowing how much his daughter was fond of arts and crafts. ¡°That¡¯s so thoughtful of you. Now, I will be back within a minute. After that, we will have our dinner together. And you don¡¯t have to eat choctes right now, after dinner, okay?¡± ¡°But daddyyy¡­¡± ¡°Don¡¯t try to act smart, love. You shift from Calvin to ¡®DADDY¡¯ whenever you want to convince me. But I¡¯m serious about it. We both will have chocte together after dinner. That¡¯s final.¡± Giving a kiss on her cheek, he went to take a bath while Roselet sat holding the choctes in her hand. She then ced it on the bed and started counting them and then observing the height and length of all the choctes so that she would eat the biggest one. Once she finalized which chocte she would eat, she left the bed to ce Calvin used clothes in its ce and observed the whole room to see whether other things were in their ce or not. She ced Calvin¡¯s shoes in the right ce. ¡°Just two minutes more,¡± Calvin said, walking out of the washroom. He wore fresh clothes and threw the wet towel on the bed, but when he saw Roselet ring at him, he quickly ced it in its right ce. ¡°Calvin, how will you manage yourself when I will leave you?¡± She asked, picking up theb and standing on the stool while Calvin crouched to reach below her height. ¡°Leave me? Why will you leave me?¡± Calvin asked in a panic. ¡°Arline was saying that every girl has to leave their father after marriage. Aunt Caro left Grandpa Brandon after the wedding. In the same way, she will leave Uncle Artemis after marriage, and I will leave you.¡± Roselet replied, trying tob Calvin¡¯s hair; though it wasn¡¯t perfect, but Calvin didn¡¯t mind and carried her in his arms for dinner. ¡°There is a lot of time in your marriage, princess. In werewolves, a female can get marked by her mate after attending eighteen till whenever they want to. And you¡¯re barely five, so there is time in your marriage.¡± Calvin exined. Nelina served dinner, and Calvin fed his princess with his own hand, cing her in hisp, and then kept their conversation on. ¡°Still, after thirteen years, how will you manage yourself? Uncle Artemis will have Aunt Caro with her. Grandpa Brandon will have Grandma Sophia when Aunt Lee and Aunt Tee will get married, but no one will be with you after me.¡± ¡°Okay, Granny. Stop thinking about all those things and concentrate on your food.¡± Calvin said sarcastically. After dinner, they ate together just like Calvin said, and just like Calvin, his daughter was a sweet tooth. When he was young, his brother and father used to give their choctes to him. Now, he had inbuilt that habit for his daughter. ¡°I want some more.¡± Roselet smiled, looking at Calvin¡¯s chocte. She quickly ate her part and was greedily looking at her father¡¯s part. ¡°Here.¡± He gave his part to her happily. Heughed at the memories when he used to dere proudly, ¡®I will never¡­ never share my choctes with anyone, and never in my life will I give my favorite thing to others, for his or her happiness.¡¯ Everyone used to say that he would change for his woman but little did anyone know a cute little princess would change him. * After brushing her teeth, Calvin picked a storybook to read a story to her when she stopped him. ¡°I don¡¯t want to hear the story today.¡± ¡°Then?¡± ¡°You didn¡¯t tell me anything about the trip. Did¡­ did you find anything about HER? Did you now know where Mommy is?¡± She asked in a low tone. Calvin caressed her face before asking, ¡°Do you need a mommy?¡± Roselet shook her head before replying, ¡°No. I need her for you.¡± ¡°But I don¡¯t want anyone except you, love.¡± ¡°That¡¯s not the answer to my question, Daddy.¡± Roselet pointed out and kept staring at her daddy, waiting for her answer. She was being told that she was sent as a gift to her daddy from the Moon Goddess and no one had any idea about her Mommy. . #TBC 17 When she started speaking, she frequently used to ask Calvin to find her Mommy until she realized that how Calvin had to stay away from her in search of her Mommy, and that was the thing she hated the most. She soon stopped asking, ¡®Where is Mommy?¡¯ and started to stay happy with just Calvin, whose world used to surround her. She understood that Calvin might forget about the dinner date, but he never forgot any function of her school. He had a habit ofingte but never did he dropped Roselet a minutete her school. She had watched him doing all the things that her friend¡¯s mother used to use for them, from cooking for her in the morning to feeding her with his own hand at night. ¡°Yes, I found out who your Mommy is now,¡± Calvin replied, looking at his daughter, who didn¡¯t react immediately to that news. ¡°What happened? Why are you silent?¡± ¡°Daddddyyyyyy¡­¡± ¡°Yes, love.¡± ¡°Now that you know who it is she? We will live together?¡± She asked, recalling how everyone lives with their Mommy and daddy. ¡°I¡¯m not sure about that, love. I know what are you thinking right now. Everyone¡¯s mom and dad stay together, but sometimes pups stay with different parents as well. For example, Artin lives with Caro and Artemis, who aren¡¯t their real parents, but they love him like their own. In the same way, it¡¯s notpulsory that all pups live with their real Mommy and daddy.¡± ¡°You should live with one who loves you for real,¡± Calvin exined to her softly and kept kissing her hand, making sure that she understood everything. ¡°And as you already know that your real Mommy doesn¡¯t even know about your existence because Moon Goddess gifted me with a princess, not her. That¡¯s why she never came looking for you.¡± ¡°I know. Moon Goddess gifted you with me because you needed me more than Mommy did.¡± ¡°Exactly. And princess, I¡¯m not sure but¡­ but there is a chance that your real Mommy is already mated to someone else.¡± Roselet thought over Calvin¡¯s words for a while in her tiny mind while Calvin gave her the mind to process everything. ¡°Daddddyyyy¡­.¡± ¡°Yes, love.¡± ¡°I want to meet her,¡± Roselet said in a low tone. ¡°Just for once, please. And I promise that I will keep it a secret that I¡¯m her daughter from her like a movie.¡± ¡°You can¡¯t secret from anyone like me, love.¡± Calvin chuckled, pinching her cheeks. ¡°I will. I will this time.¡± Roselet said in an excited tone. ¡°Please, daddddyyyy. I¡¯m your princess, right?¡± ¡°Fine. I knew that you would ask to meet her, and that¡¯s your right as her daughter, but there are some ground rules. One, you will not leave me for your Mommy.¡± ¡°I won¡¯t,¡± Roselet said, shaking her head. ¡°And you won¡¯t start dreaming of seeing your mommy and daddy together because that won¡¯t happen.¡± Calvin cleared it. ¡°I know,¡± Roselet replied. ¡°She is already marked by someone else.¡± She added in an understanding way. She knew marking in werewolf was equal to marriage. ¡°In that way, I have two daddies and one mommy.¡± ¡°Two daddies? Really, love?¡± Calvin growled, showing his fake anger. ¡°No one is your daddy except me. Did you get that clear?¡± ¡°Calvin and Keanu are jealous.¡± Roselet giggled, kissing her father¡¯s nose. ¡°I have only one daddy and the best daddy in the world.¡± ¡°Hmm. Sound perfect, and sleep. You have school tomorrow.¡± Calvin said and patted her back softly, thinking of creating a situation where his love could get a chance to meet her Mommy. * ¡°Daddyyy!!¡± Roselet asked her father, who woke up early in the morning for his training while she woke up early because she was feeling thirsty. ¡°Yes, love,¡± Calvin responded while preparing honey and warm water to drink. ¡°Why are you mixing warm water and honey?¡± ¡°A ss of warm water and honey on an empty stomach to lose weight.¡± He replied and gave her normal water to her. ¡°But why? You¡¯re not fat.¡± ¡°I know, but I don¡¯t want to get fat even in the future,¡± Calvin replied and quickly changed the topic to teach her something interesting. ¡°Do you know that honey is the only food thatsts forever?¡±N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°Really?¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t get old, and it never expires, and this helps me to stay young forever.¡± He added with a wink. ¡°I don¡¯t think it will work,¡± Roselet said after drinking the water. ¡°Why not?¡± ¡°You are getting old. I saw one white beard. It looks like even honey can¡¯t save you from getting old.¡± ¡°What the¡­¡± Calvin¡¯s mouth widened in shock. ¡°Good night, daddy. I¡¯m going to sleep for a couple of hours more.¡± Roselet yawned and left from there to sleep again while Calvin searched for that particr white beard which he had to color as soon as possible. * ¡°All these years, every doctor that Ethlyn lost her wolf and because of which she wasn¡¯t able to heal, and now how is that possible that Cinder appeared in front of everyone out of the blue?¡± Abigail asked her mate, who was happy with the fact that finally, the other part of her daughter was alive. ¡°I thought that we could easily lie, Ethlyn, and she wouldn¡¯t be able to figure out the truth, but with Cinder¡¯s presence, she can sense lies easily.¡± She kept speaking. ¡°But at that moment, I didn¡¯t lie, did I? Nope. I told her the half-truth. She had asked about her pup, and I told her that the doctor couldn¡¯t save her pup.¡± . #TBC . Thank you for reading ?? 18 ¡°She had asked about her pup, and I told her that the doctor couldn¡¯t save her pup. Neither did she know nor anyone would tell her that she had pups, not a pup.¡± ¡°Keep dreaming, Abby,¡± Christian spoke. ¡°We had lost our hope that Ethlyn would be awake again, but she finally did. We didn¡¯t hope for Cinder¡¯s presence, but she came with Ethlyn as an offer of buy one get one free. In the same way, she wille to know about her daughter as well.¡± ¡°Are you going to tell her the truth?¡± ¡°Yes, if I will need to, Abby. To be honest, I have had enough of your drama.¡± Christian said sternly. ¡°Excuse me?¡± Abigail looked at her mate in shock. ¡°You¡¯re not excused, Abby. Aren¡¯t you ashamed of your deed? Being a mother, you are nning and plotting to keep the pup of another mother away from her?¡± Christian questioned. ¡°The pup about which you¡¯re talking is a MISTAKE.¡± ¡°And what you are doing is CRIME. Mistake happens identally, but crime is done with proper nning and plotting.¡± Christian reminded her. ¡°Fine, I agree that the pup I¡¯m talking about is the result of the mistake, but the pup you are talking about is the result of love.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to act like a wall between mother and daughter, but I¡¯m warning you, Abby, that you will build an unbreakable wall between Ethlyn and you the day she will know about her pup from someone else.¡± He warned. ¡°The list of your crimes is increasing. First and foremost was when you came to know that Ethlyn was pregnant with someone¡¯s else pup other than Nathan. You not a once confronted her or talked about it with me about all this thing. You just assumed that your daughter made a mistake by cheating on her mate and punished her by staying quiet when she was being kicked out of the pack.¡± ¡°Christ..¡± ¡°Shut up, Abby. And listen to me! Neither did you trust Ethlyn or the education that you have given to her, nor did you give her a chance to exin anything to her. All you wanted to know was who was the father of her pup.¡± The anger that was resting deep down in his heart was finally oozing out likeva, realizing that his mate was going to repeat the same mistake again that she did back then. ¡°Christ¡­¡± ¡°I¡¯m not done yet, Abby. I was also not happy with the decision that you took for our granddaughter; she¡­.¡± ¡°Oh, please,¡± Abigail scoffed. ¡°For a while, I¡¯m sorry for what I did to Ethlyn and didn¡¯t trust her when I should have, but I¡¯m not at all guilty for the decision that I took by getting rid of that pup.¡± With this, she left from there. ¡®I was going to say that I wasn¡¯t happy with the decision that you took for our granddaughter, she shouldn¡¯t have been med for the things that happened in the past, but I¡¯m happy now. She is her daddy¡¯s princess in her father¡¯s kingdom.¡¯ He thought. * Next morning!!! Ethlyn wasn¡¯t ready to ept that her pup was no more, but at the same time, she could sense that everyone was telling her the truth. Little did she know that it was just a half-truth. She couldn¡¯t thank her father for taking her to the ce where her son was resting peacefully, ¡®Chritsian Jr. Smith.¡¯ ¡°I¡¯m sorry, pup, for not being able to protect you.¡± She cried at his grave. She was feeling guilty that she failed to protect him. Only if things, she would have begged Nathan to let her stay in the pack that day then he would have been alive. She was finding numerous ways to me herself. Once she was done with ming herself, the name of the person, because of which shended in that position. She really had to give a tight p to that particr person for the insult that she faced that day. ¡®That night. I was with Nathan when I was in heat. So, whether he ns that trap for me? Or someone else?¡¯ She wondered, wiping her tears. ¡®And who the hell was the man who got me pregnant? Was he involved in the n, or was he just a prey like me?¡¯ ¡®We will find that after observing the CCTV footage of the mating ball that year. If I¡¯m not wrong, then we need the footage of the 9th mating ball from now. And sadly, no one would have ced that footage safely. We are four and eight monthste for the investigation, Ethlyn.¡¯ Cinder said. ¡®We have to find our enemies of this pack instead of looking for that man who got you pregnant.¡¯N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡®But from should I start? I can¡¯t get any lead.¡¯ She talked with her wolf, and that was when she sensed her mother cing her hand on her shoulder. ¡°Sweetheart!!¡± All of a sudden, Ethlyn¡¯s jaws clenched, and her hand formed a fist; after all, she neither trusted Ethlyn nor did she give her a chance to speak. ¡°Nathan is here to check on you.¡± She wanted to scoff at the presence of those two people who weren¡¯t there for her when she needed them the most. She wanted to leave the pack as soon as possible instead of staying anywhere near them, but she had to sort a couple of things before that. ¡°Give me some time, Mom. I will be back after a couple of minutes.¡± She said emotionlessly. * Roselet was running from her wardrobe to her bed in excitement back and front, carrying all her beautiful dresses and her matching shoes and her matching essories with them. ¡°Rose, darling! Calvin said that you¡¯re going for just two days.¡± Nelina said carefully, not to make Roselet sad. Five days had passed since Calvin told his love about her Mommy, and during this period, he came up with a n to create a situation in which Roselet could meet her mother. . #TBC 19 It was a trip of two days. Since it was a secret mission, so it wouldn¡¯t be possible for Roselet to meet her mother instantly after reaching her mother¡¯s pack; that was why after nning properly, Calvin nned it for two days. And Roselet was so happy with this news that she wanted to keep all her best dresses that she would wear while meeting her mother. Her daddy had taught her to get ready like the princess that she was whenever it was an important function or day of her life. And meeting her mother for the first time was indeed an important day of her life, and she had to look her best at that time. ¡°Please add this dress as well.¡± She requested with a pout. ¡°Please, Grandma Nelina.¡± Nelina looked at her bag and then at her, she had already kept six dresses, and this was the seventh one. ¡°Okay, fine. This is thest one, okay?¡± ¡°Okay, Grandma. Thank you.¡± She said and ran again to check something that she would be missing to pack. [Author Note: She is calling her caretaker AKA Nanny Grandma Nelina. Please don¡¯t get confused with the real one.] *Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. On the Otherside, Zordan packed the things that he would need for two days. ¡°I¡¯m telling you again that I don¡¯t know how to babysit a baby,¡± he said to Calvin, who was sending Roselet with Zordan instead of taking her on his own. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. My princess doesn¡¯t need anyone to take care of her. She can take care of herself and yours as well. And there are multiple reasons why I am sending you instead of taking Rose on my own. The first and foremost reason is I don¡¯t want anyone to know that Rose is my daughter because whoever had left Rose at my pack entrance years back would recognize Rose if she went with me. So, in case that woman has no idea about our daughter, her enemies will already turn on alert mode, thinking of us as a threat.¡± ¡°The second reason is that my parents will start trying to poke their nose more than it requires if they will get to know that I found the Mommy of my pup,¡± Calvin revealed. ¡°Anyways, the n is simple. You¡¯re going there in search of your mate, which you haven¡¯t found even at the age of twenty-eight years old, and no Alpha couldn¡¯t stop anyone who is looking for their mate from staying in a pack for a day or two. In that time, while he will be busy assembling all the unmated girls, Rose can meet her mother for once and for all.¡± ¡°Do you think that she will be fine by meeting her mother just one time?¡± Zordan asked, grabbing the sitting chair in front of him. ¡°To be honest, I don¡¯t know the answer to this question. As for now, she wants to meet her mother then. I will make sure that will happen.¡± Calvin replied, but at the same time, he was insecure as well. The thought that his daughter might choose her Mommy over him was scaring him, but he didn¡¯t want to act selfish just because of his insecurity. It was her right to know who gave birth to him. ¡°Okay. So, let me recall the n.¡± Zordan said. ¡°It has been ten years since I haven¡¯t found my mate in any mating ball. That¡¯s why I decided to visit every pack to find my fated mate before choosing someone else as my chosen mate.¡± ¡°Perfect.¡± ¡°And I brought my niece with me because she loves traveling to new ces and wasn¡¯t ready to let mee here alone.¡± ¡°Hmm. Next.¡± Calvin nodded his head at his exnation. ¡°She is dad¡¯s best friend¡¯s granddaughter and is close to our family, and her grandmother and uncles are humans,¡± Zordan said. ¡°Hmm. I couldn¡¯t smell any lie. You have to speak the same. Let everyone assume that Rose is Omega¡¯s daughter rather than Alpha¡¯s daughter; otherwise, she might get kidnapped.¡± Calvin mumbled. ¡°How can she get kidnapped? Her uncle will be there to keep her safe.¡± Zordan quickly said. ¡°She is the little princess of the pack, and her safety will be the priority of every warrior.¡± ¡°I know that, but at the same time, she is a pup who can think of ying with pups other age. You can¡¯t look after her all the time, and if you do that, then the people around her surely start suspecting Rose as some important person. I have exined everything to Rose already, so she knows how to act, just like her Aunt Tee.¡± ¡°Tiara,¡± Zordan said in a dreamy tone. ¡°Can I ask her for my chosen mate if I can¡¯t find my mate?¡± He asked softly with his best friend. All of a sudden, Calvin roared in anger. ¡°She is my sister. In the same way, she is your sister too.¡± ¡°What rubbish?¡± ¡°This is not rubbish but the fact. My parents are like your second parents to you, right?¡± ¡°Right.¡± ¡°My daughter is like your daughter to you, right?¡± ¡°Right?¡± ¡°My brother is like your brother to you, right?¡± ¡°Right.¡± ¡°Then my sister is like your sister to you, right?¡± ¡°Ri¡­ wait NOoooooooo.¡± Zordan cried, shaking his head. ¡°See, Zordy!! I¡¯m asking you to stay away from Tee for a reason. It¡¯s not because I¡¯m acting as a protective brother or something, but Tiara is different from all of us. I mean, she is not a bad person, but she is self-centered and self-obsessed, and in every word in which, ¡®SELF¡¯e first. She has lived her life like a princess and now living as a queen. She rejected her own fated mate the moment she realized that she would have to go to the ck Council by choosing him. So, beware of her and prepare yourself for a heartbeat as well, my friend, because she is all about ¡®I, ME, and MYSELF.''¡± . #TBC . A/N: Dear Readers, It¡¯s my baby brother¡¯s birthday today (he is 24 now, so obviously not so baby for others), so we have some ns for the evening. That¡¯s why there is a big chance that I won¡¯t be able able to post at night. 20 ¡°Calvin.¡± Roselet came running into his cabin without knocking it and jumped on him. ¡°My luggage is packed. See¡­¡± Saying this, she pointed her finger. Zordan¡¯s jaw dropped seeing three bags of Roselet while Calvin just chuckled. ¡°Dadddddyyyyy!!¡± ¡°Yes, love!!¡± ¡°I was wondering if you could take me shopping. I don¡¯t have any dress to wear.¡± ¡°Rose!! Darling, you can¡¯t act like olddies just from this age who have a whole wardrobe full of clothes and alwaysin about no dress to wear.¡± Zordanined. He was well aware that Calvin had gotten her varieties of beautiful dresses. Not just Calvin, but she keeps receiving dresses and matching essories from her Aunt Tee the most. ¡°Calvin!! Pleaseeeee¡±, She pouted. ¡°Sure, love, but I don¡¯t understand why you need a new dress now. There are no important uing events, and we have already bought Indian ethnic wear for Diwali.¡± Calvin pointed out. ¡°Dadddyyy,¡± Roselet changed her tone and started ying with Calvin¡¯s shirt button. ¡°Yes, love!!¡± ¡°I want to look beautiful while meeting Mommy. Can I please get one new dress? Pleassseeee, daddddyyy!!¡± ¡°Okay, anything for you but at one condition. You won¡¯t be taking three bags with you.¡± Calvin said. ¡°Exactly,¡± Zordan added, looking at her luggage. ¡°By the way, what is there in these bags?¡± ¡°Dresses, footwear, all the matching essories, and my teddy,¡± Roselet replied. ¡°You¡¯re going on a secret mission, love, where you have to look like Omega¡¯s pup. That¡¯s why you just can¡¯t all your beautiful dresses.¡± Calvin said softly. ¡°As per your wish, I will get you a beautiful dress, and as my wish, I will pack your luggage, okay?¡± ¡°Okay!!¡± ¡°Come on now!! Let¡¯s go shopping.¡± Saying this, Calvin stood up on his feet, carrying Rose in his arms. ¡°Wait! Wait! Let me get my goggles, hat, and purse.¡± Rose said, on which Calvin put her own, and she quickly ran from his office to get her belongings. ¡°I, too, want a daughter like her, mate.¡± Zordan smiled, watching her run. ¡°Adopt one!!¡± Calvin joked. ¡°In that case, I will adopt a boy who will bring Rose home as the daughter-inw.¡± Zordan joked. ¡°That boy must be her mate too.¡± Calvinughed. ¡°By the way, Caro has changed Rose¡¯s scent so that she can¡¯t be identified as my or that woman¡¯s daughter to make sure that your wolf remembers her new scent for two days.¡± ¡°Noted. Alpha.¡± ¡°Calvinnnn!! I¡¯m here.¡± Roselet arrived carrying a small purse, a hat on her head, and goggles on her eyes. ¡°You¡¯re looking beautiful.¡± ¡°Thank you.¡± Roselet smiled and gave her the box of her goggles to keep in his pocket. ¡°This doesn¡¯t fit in my purse.¡± ¡°Yeah! Yeah, I can see that.¡± Calvin nodded his head, wondering why the hell Tiara got such a small purse for Roselet. He leaned toward her to carry her when she pped his chest softly. ¡°Calvvinnnn.. I¡¯m not a baby anymore.¡± ¡°Aaahh!! I will remind you the same line when you will get tired of walking.¡± Calvin taunted her. ¡°Come on now!!¡± ** Five fucking days had passed, but Ethlyn couldn¡¯t find any clue about the viin of her life, and the fact that she was searching everything thatte that there was a big chance that the viin of her life might have erased all the proof that she could use against him or her. ¡°Ethlyn¡­ Ethlyn!!¡± ¡°Yes!¡± Ethlyn said, looking around and finding Nathan sitting beside her. ¡°Hey!! When did youe?¡± ¡°When you were lost in your own thoughts.¡± Nathan smiled, but Ethlyn didn¡¯t smile at him back. She just couldn¡¯t. ¡°How are you feeling now?¡± ¡°Wondering what would have happened the night on which I got pregnant?¡± Ethlyn spoke and looked at him. ¡°Have you¡­ ¡°Did the doctor ask you to rest as much as possible rather than stressing yourself over the past?¡± Nathan asked, cutting her in between. ¡°How can you ask me to rest when the person who destroyed my life is roaming freely in the pack or outside the pack?¡± Ethlyn eximed. ¡°You¡¯re overthinking. The person who destroyed your life is none other than you. Both your mom and I saw how you walked into the other person¡¯s room on your own. So, stop looking for a person on whom you can put all the me. You made a mistake and epted it. There is nothing wrong in epting the mistake.¡± Nathan said, exining to her calmly, on which Ethlyn stood up on her feet, shaking her head. ¡°And mom was saying that we should think about giving each other a second chance. But I don¡¯t think that without trust, we should waste our time in a second chance.¡± Nathan held her hand and made her sit beside him again, ¡°Fine!! I¡¯m sorry.¡± ¡®You¡¯re sorry; neither could bring my pup back to me nor make me forget your heartbreaking words.¡¯ Ethlyn thought.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°By the way, there is a tiny little chance that Reva can find her mate,¡± Nathan said, changing the topic on which Ethlyn furrowed her eyes. ¡°This is just a guess. I¡¯m not sure about it. Whatever was happening in your family, because of that, she never attended the mating ball after turning eighteen. So, tomorrow the beta of the Blood Moon Pack is arriving here in search of his mate.¡± ¡°So, you think that he can be Reva¡¯s mate?¡± . #TBC 21 ¡°Maybe. There is nothing to assume. He can¡¯t also be her mate as well.¡± Nathan said, shrugging his shoulder. ¡°She-wolf who lives in a pack starts meeting their mate just after attending eighteen years old. Even you have found it, haven¡¯t you?¡± ¡°Hmm.¡± Ethlyn nodded her head. ¡®If he will be Reva¡¯s mate, then I will make sure to test him properly so that he won¡¯t insult my sister and leave her at her vulnerable stage.¡¯ She thought. ¡°Who was the person with whom I slept?¡± Ethlyn asked, reaching back to her previous topic. ¡°Ethlyn, I now know that you didn¡¯t cheat on me, but it was just an ident.¡± ¡°That¡¯s not the answer to my question.¡± She said sternly. If Nathan would have heard Roselet¡¯s conversation, even then, he would have observed that even Roselet used to speak the same line when she didn¡¯t receive the answer to her question. ¡°Alpha of Blood Moon Pack.¡± ¡°The same Blood Moon Pack from this Beta ising?¡± ¡°Yes, the same Blood Moon.¡± Nathan agreed on which Ethlyn clenched her jaw. ¡°Now, don¡¯t start getting mad at each and every pack member of the Blood Moon Pack for whatever happened in the past because it was your mistake that you went in his room. He didn¡¯te into your room.¡± ¡°Really? Everything is my mistake, then where the hell was you when I was in heat that night?¡± Ethlyn questioned him in anger.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Mind your tone, Ethlyn. I¡¯m the Alpha of the pack, and I won¡¯t ept you are disrespecting me. I¡¯m trying to mold our rtionship, but you¡¯re getting mad at me as if I did something wrong with you. And I didn¡¯t know you were in heat that night. You couldn¡¯t handle yourself after a couple of drinks. That¡¯s why I brought you our room and returned back to the ball.¡± ¡°And you never came back from the ball to check on me? Huh? Where were you that night, then? You told me previously that you were with me that night. Hmm? When I woke up in the morning, I found some money on the table, which you epted, leaving for me so that I could reach the pack by taxi as you had to leave for another pack as soon as possible.¡± Ethlyn bombarded a number of questions on Nathan. ¡°Where were you, Nathan, that night? Tell me the truth, now. Because then, you agreed to be with me. Not just that, you also knew that¡­ that I slept with someone else, didn¡¯t you?¡± ¡°Hell, No!! I didn¡¯t know about you sharing¡­.¡± Nathan didn¡¯tplete the sentence. ¡°I can never stoop that low, Ethlyn.¡± ¡°Then where were you, Nathan? I want to know.¡± Ethlyn demanded. Nathan opened his mouth to answer her, but no words came out of his mouth. ¡°What were you doing that your wolf couldn¡¯t sense the danger around me? I agree that we weren¡¯t marked then, but the sixth sense of a wolf always starts working in case of any danger around his/her mate.¡± ¡°I told you that I was out of pack works.¡± ¡°What kind of work were you doing that night?¡± Ethlyn questioned. ¡°Were you with some woman that night?¡± She asked without thinking. Ethlyn chuckled,ughing at her own situation. ¡°A man is allowed to cheat on his woman, but the same woman can¡¯t do the same with her man even by mistake.¡± ¡°Ethlyn¡­¡± ¡°Open your mouth only when you can speak the truth,¡± Ethlyn said, and when Nathan didn¡¯t open his mouth, she left from there. ¡®Loyal men are almost NIL in this generation.¡¯ She thought, and surprisingly, she didn¡¯t feel any pain after finding out about Nathan¡¯s betrayal. Maybe all her feelings died the day when he rejected her. After reaching home, she sat in the living room, thinking about everything. At the same time, she saw Reva roaming in the kitchen and looking for something. She grabbed the leftover food and after started serving it on the te. ¡°What happened, Ethlyn? Why are you sitting in the dark?¡± She questioned, feeling a pair of eyes on her. ¡°Because that¡¯s what my life is now.¡± She mumbled, and Reva reached near her with a te in her hand and switched on themp. ¡°Nonsense. Stop thinking in a negative way. All you need to grab the hand that will pull you out of this darkness, but you¡¯re not ready to grab anyone¡¯s hand.¡± Reva pointed out, having her dinner for the second time. ¡°I know mom is acting cupid between you and Nathan and also wants you two to get together again, hoping he to be that person who will pull you out of this darkness. But I want to ask whether it is working?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to talk about it. Tell me, why are you eating dinner twice?¡± Ethlyn asked, changing the topic. ¡°Ahh! About that¡­ my wolf is restless. I don¡¯t know why.¡± Reva responded, eating the food. ¡°And you know, whenever I¡¯m stressed by thinking something, then I eat. I don¡¯t understand what is making my wolf so restless. I hope it will get better by morning.¡± ¡°What¡­ what kind of vibes is she getting?¡± ¡°Nothing,¡± Reva responded. ¡°That¡¯s why I¡¯m stressed, wondering whether it is good news or bad. I just hope it to be good because happiness has just arrived at our home, and I don¡¯t want to disappear again. Last time, we were so happy, and it turned out that it was a nightmare for all of us. I don¡¯t want any shock in our life again.¡± ¡°I think I know why your wolf is feeling restless,¡± Ethlyn replied, to which Reva stopped eating and waited for her to continue. . #TBC 22 ¡°I¡¯m not hundred percent sure, Reva, but there is a chance that you¡¯re going to meet your mate, and with each passing moment, this feeling will start growing, not until you finally meet him for real.¡± ¡°My mate?¡± Reva smiled, cing her te aside. ¡°He ising here? In search of me?¡± She asked in excitement. ¡°Moon Goddess! I hope thises to be true. Is¡­ is someone arriving in the pack in search of his mate or some pack meeting?¡± ¡°Umm¡­ yeah!! Nathan told me that someone wasing in search of his mate. So, maybe he will be your mate, or someone apanying him can be your mate.¡± Ethlyn said, on which Reva howled in joy, waking everyone. ¡°What happened, Princess?¡± Christian asked after listening to Reva¡¯s howl, which sounded like she was excited and happy. ¡°What is the good news? Did Nathan ask Ethlyn for marriage again?¡± Abigail asked. ¡°Mom, Did you buy me from the market? Sometimes it¡¯s about me as well.¡± Reva reminded her, frowning. ¡°Anyways, I guess I¡¯m going to meet my mate. For the past two years, I wasn¡¯t attending the mating ball because I didn¡¯t want to find my mate and settle with him; at that time, my family was my first priority, but now¡­ now it looks like its the time.¡± She added and started dancing. ¡°Finally, my biggest tension will be gone,¡± Christian teased and joined her in her dance. ¡°Dadddddd¡± Reva whined ¡°A!! I love you.¡± He said, hugging her. At the same time, they were busy enjoying this moment. Ethlyn was scared of negative thoughts that she had inbuilt into her mind, while Abigail hoped her daughter to be blessed with an Alpha mate. ¡°Join us, Mom!! Ethlyn!!¡± **** ¡®Mommy, we are going to meet soon.¡¯ Roselet thought in her mind, looking at the big mountain in front of her. Zordan informed her that her mommy¡¯s pack was on the top of the mountain. ¡°Ready for trekking?¡± Zordan teased her. ¡°I¡¯m a baby. You will carry me, Uncle Zordy.¡± She pouted, looking at the height. ¡°Ahh! Now, you have be a baby? Huh!¡± he asked. ¡°Come here!!¡± he said and lifted her in his arms. ¡°Why are you not shifting? In that way, we can reach there faster than this trekking.¡± Roselet asked. ¡°Because you have a habit of sitting on wolf in the in ground. You might fall down from my back when I will run toward up, and that is thest thing I want. That¡¯s why we will trek.¡± He replied, looking at the four best warriors of the pack. ¡°And you can sleep in my arms if possible, okay?¡± ¡°No. I will stay awake. I have to meet her.¡± She said in an excited tone. It was a journey of around six to seven hours of walking, or three to four hours by climbing straight on the mountain. Zordan cursed mentally for the non-avability of the car in that area, but then they all got habitual to the human technologies by staying near the city. After a few hours, Roselet started snoring softly.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°And someone was saying that she will stay awake.¡± Lemieux joked softly. He was her personal bodyguard who had no other work than looking after Roselet. Zordan smiled, looking at Roselet. To be honest, he was more excited to reach up as soon as possible because of his wolf, who was restless as well as excited. * Last night, Reva couldn¡¯t sleep a wink, not because she didn¡¯t want to but because the fact that finally meeting her mate couldn¡¯t let her sleep. However, Ethlyn and Christian warned her that this was just a possibility, not sure, but her wolf was positive about it. ¡®Moon Goddess, I always wanted like dad. Please consider my prayer.¡¯ She prayed. Just like Ethlyn had told her, with each passing minute, her restlessness and excitement were increasing. She couldn¡¯t help herself and sneaked out of her house to reach the pack border and thought to wait for him there by patrolling the border with other warriors even though her duty wasn¡¯t aligned to do. Finally, after waiting for hours, she smelt the mouthwatering scent, signaling that her mate was near. She was on edge to see him, a part of her wanted to run out and meet him quickly, but somehow, she held her wolf, who was letting her sit quietly. She already sensed that they were six people, out of which one smelt different, a girly one. ¡®Why the hell are they all walking instead of running in wolf form?¡¯ She wondered in irritation. After half an hour, her eyesnded on the person for whom she had been waiting for a long, and she was taken aback to see a girl of four-five years in his arms. ¡®MATE¡¯ Her wolf howled in joy. She didn¡¯t miss the surprised look on her mate¡¯s well, as if he wasn¡¯t expecting her here. ¡®Wasn¡¯t he here in searching for his mate?¡¯ She thought and looked at the girl in his arms. ¡®Don¡¯t tell me that she is her adopted daddy or something because she doesn¡¯t smell like him for sure. What if he already chose someone as his mate, and this girl is the pup of his chosen mate from someone else?¡¯ A lot of questions started going on in her mind looking at them. ¡°Hello, I¡¯m John Reeves, Beta of Wind Winder Pack.¡± The young introduced himself. ¡°Alpha Nathan asked me to attend to you all and take you to the guest house of the pack.¡± ¡°Hello, I¡¯m Zordan Collin, Beta of Blood Moon Pack,¡± Zordan responded, not removing from Reva. It was a fake n toe here, to this pack, in search of his mate, but he really found her mate here. He was surprised and shocked at this fact. . #TBC 23 ¡°I didn¡¯t know you all wereing with a pup here, Beta Zordan,¡± John said, looking at the Roselet, who was sleeping peacefully. ¡°Now, I can understand why you all were walking instead of running in wolf. Who is this cute girl? Your daughter.¡± He asked in a low tone so that Roselet wouldn¡¯t wake. Zordan wanted to answer this question immediately ande clean in front of his mate, who was also waiting for the answer to this question. ¡°Daddy,¡± Roselet mumbled in her sleep, rubbing her face in Zordan¡¯s neck.Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. ¡°Oh, she is your daughter,¡± John said, and all of a sudden, Reva didn¡¯t wait for a second after hearing this and ran away from there, feeling angry and hurt at the same time. ¡®What the fuck!!¡¯ Zordan cursed at the wrong timing. He recalled the story of his father when his mother, Joanna, assumed his father, Bruce Henry Collin as the father of Colton and Calvin when he was taking them to the park, carrying them in his arms, and a generation after, just because he was carrying Calvin¡¯s daughter, his mate assumed him as the father of Roselet. Zordan just couldn¡¯t run behind his mate to exin everything, not now, at least. Roselet wasn¡¯t just Calvin¡¯s princess, but she was the princess of the whole pack, and he just couldn¡¯t start running, ruining his princess¡¯s sleep. Zordan caressed her back and replied, ¡°She is like my daughter, my niece. She wanted to apany me, and I just couldn¡¯t say her NO.¡± Of course, he couldn¡¯t say her NO. The truth was that this n was prepared for her. ¡°Oh, I¡¯m sorry!! You all must be tired. Come on; I will show the guest house.¡± John said, smiling at them. ¡°By the way, who was she?¡± Lemieux asked, observing everything silently between the Beta and the she-wolf through their eyes. ¡°She is the younger daughter of the former Beta of the pack, Reva Smith. And by observing everything, I guess, we all know why she was here and for whom.¡± John joked to enlighten the atmosphere. Zordan didn¡¯t react to it because he was carrying Roselet, but he did recognize the surname and the fact that the woman who was his fate was none other than the sister of Roselet¡¯s mommy. ¡°Now, Beta Zordan doesn¡¯t have to search for his mate in the whole pack because now he already knows who she is.¡± John kept speaking while taking them toward the guest house. ¡°I will inform Alpha about it and then take Beta Zordan to former Beta Christian¡¯s house on my own, but I guess you all need rest for at least four to five hours, especially the little girl who is sleeping ufortably in your arms.¡± **** After a walk of ten minutes, they reached at guest house. John allotted them their room and left from there. Zordan ced Roselet on the bed and covered her with the nket, and mind linked about the same to Calvin who couldn¡¯t sleepst night without his love. ¡®You can sleep now, Mate. I have ced her on the bed, and she is sleepingfortably now.¡¯ He informed. ¡®It¡¯s time for training already.¡¯ Calvin replied, leaving Roselet¡¯s room. He stayed in her roomst night and tried to sleep hugging her big teddy bear still nothing could give him his princess¡¯s vibe. ¡®Zordy, I know I don¡¯t need to repeat again and again but take care of her.¡¯ ¡®Don¡¯t worry, Mate.¡¯ ¡®Bye now. I reached the training ground.¡¯ ¡°Did you tell Alpha about you finding your mate for real?¡± Lemieux asked, looking at Zordan when he disconnected the mind link. ¡°I thought to inform my Alpha about it, but when I mind-linked him, I met with a worried father who couldn¡¯t sleepst night. I will inform himter when his father mode will be off.¡± Zordan replied. ¡°He loves Rose a lot.¡± ¡°Even Rose loves him a lot,¡± Zordan said with a smile. ¡°There was a time Calvin couldn¡¯t keep his hand off from any woman, but I haven¡¯t seen him with any woman from the night Rosended in our pack. At first, he wanted to¡­ but at that time, Rose needed a lot of attention, so he couldn¡¯t manage the time, but when she started growing old when Calvin could spend time with a woman by leaving her with Nelina. Calvin had already transformed from a casanova to a family man. Instead of buying condoms, he had started buying story books for nights.¡± Lemieux smiled listening to this; he had joined the pack three years back when his parents kicked him out of the pack just because he revealed to them that he was interested in men instead of women. But Calvin didn¡¯t mind taking him in his pack, and it had been two years since he was handling the position of Roselet¡¯s bodyguard. ¡°Anyway, Go and sleep in her room,¡± Zordan said, yawning. ¡°Okay, Beta.¡± Lemieux walked into Roselet¡¯s room and observed her sleeping peacefully. All of a sudden, he shifted into a big wolf andy on the floor in alert mode. *** A few hourster!! ¡°Can someone help me in getting ready?¡± Roselet asked, looking at her all five uncles. ¡°Ready? But I have already kept your blue frock and all the matching things rted to it.¡± Zordan said, recalling the tips that he had received from Calvin. ¡°Men,¡± Roselet muttered in a duh tone and left from there. ¡°Lemi, see what kind of READY she is talking about,¡± Zordan said, on which Lemieux¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°I¡¯m her bodyguard, not her makeup artist,¡± Lemieux responded. ¡°But we all can help her in getting ready, right?¡± ¡°Yeah! It¡¯s not that she uses makeup or something. Also, she is not that old. Three of us have seen from the days of diapers.¡± Asher said. . #TBC 24 And after talking for a while, they all reached Roselet¡¯s room and found her struggling with zip in the back of the frock. Zordan was first to reach near her and closed her zip. Lemieux handled the hair department. While the rest of the three check the other help that they could offer by reading her baby products or with her matching footwear. It took them more than an hour to help her in getting ready by trying different styles, which didn¡¯t work out. In the end, Roselet decided to keep her hair open and use her butterfly clips. ¡°How do I look?¡± She asked after checking herself in the mirror ¡°Beautiful, pretty, cute, lovely, fantastic!¡± ¡°You all should take sses from Calvin. He gets me ready in just fifteen minutes.¡± She said, taking Calvin¡¯s name for the nth number of times. ¡°He even knows various types of hairstyle. I miss him. He should have been here.¡± She added, feeling sad. ¡°Rose, a princess doesn¡¯t divert her mind from her mission. Keep focus and remember why you are here!!¡± ¡°To meet mommy.¡± ¡°Right! Let¡¯s go now, Alpha Nathan is waiting for us, and you do remember that you don¡¯t have to lie. Divert the question when required.¡± Zordan said to which she nodded her head. He leaned down to pick her up when she smacked his chest. ¡°I¡¯m not a baby. I can walk.¡± ¡°Her ¡®BABY¡¯ word shifts from time to time ording to her convenience.¡± Lemieux joked. ¡°True.¡± ***** ¡°So, did you meet your mate?¡± Ethlyn asked, knowing very well that she sneaked out of homest night and camete in the morning. ¡°I saw him,¡± Reva replied, eating breakfast for the second time. ¡°He has a baby, maybe adopted, and who knows that he is marked as well and came here in search of his friend¡¯s mate.¡± She mumbled and took a big bite. ¡°Okay! Hold on!¡± Ethlyn thought to talk about everything because she was getting confused. ¡°As per my information, Beta of Blood Moon Pack wasing here in search of his mate. I don¡¯t know about his friend or anyone else who apanied him. So, who is your mate exactly? That Beta or some of his friends?¡± ¡°Gordon Collin¡­¡± She replied by munching food in her mouth. She quickly gulped it and spoke again, ¡°Zordan Collin, Beta of that pack.¡± ¡°So, he doesn¡¯t have a mate. RELAX.¡± Ethlyn said. ¡°But he does have an adopted daughter.¡± Reva pointed out. ¡°How can you say that? Did you talk about it with him? Huh.¡± Ethlyn asked, pping Reva¡¯s head, who was whining over nonsense things. ¡°I heard his daughter speaking. She called him ¡®Daddy.''¡± Reva replied. ¡°I don¡¯t want to be a mommy of any pup. At least, of not pup, which is not mine. I don¡¯t want to be in such a rtionship whether I will be the second priority of my fated mate.¡± ¡°Then reject him.¡± Their heads turned toward the voice, and they saw Abigail standing there. ¡°What?¡± Reva was taken aback at her mother¡¯s words. ¡°Reject him. Simple as that.¡± Abigail said sternly. ¡°You can have a way better option than him.¡± ¡°Like,ment, and subscribe to ABIGAIL SMITH for ruining your bond before it even started.¡± Ethlyn said to Reva and left from there.¡± ¡°Ethlyn! Ethlyn¡­¡± Abigail yelled, but Ethlyn ignored her and walked out of the house. She wanted to check this situation with her own eyes. She knew that her father was asked to visit Nathan¡¯s ce regarding the same thing, so she went there. * Christian Smith was shocked to learn that her younger daughter was the mate of the Beta of ¡®BLOOD MOON PACK.¡¯ Years back, everyone had thought that by leaving Roselet at that pack, everything would end with the pack but little did anyone know that chapter was not over yet. ¡°Now that Beta Zordan has already found his mate, there is no use in wasting time by asking every unmated female of the pack to visit the pack house,¡± Nathan said. ¡°I have called you and Reva here¡­ but¡­ Reva, being Reva, has sworn not to listen to me. Or maybe because of the misunderstanding that happenedst night.¡± ¡°Misunderstanding?¡± ¡°Yes!! Beta Zordan is here with his niece. Reva saw them together and assumed them as father and daughter.¡± Nathan said what his Beta had told him. ¡°I¡¯m not sure, but this is what John informed me. They areing to my office anytime soon.¡± ¡°Hmm!¡± Christian nodded. ¡®Moon Goddess, Abby will never get ready for this bond.¡¯ he thought, knowing his mate very well after all they hadpleted twenty-five together. ¡°I know the history of the Blood Moon Pack. And I know that Aunt Abby wouldn¡¯t want to keep any rtion with anyone from that pack, but I can¡¯t interfere between mate bonds topic.¡± ¡°I know,¡± Christian replied. ¡°Only Reva has the right to decide about it, and since she doesn¡¯t know the past, no one knows what she will decide,¡± he added and sensed their presence. In the next moment, the door of Nathan¡¯s office opened, and Christian¡¯s eyes widened when he saw Roselet walking in and looking at a cindere. He quickly changes his expression back to normal. He wanted to reach near her and hug her dearly. He even ignored the introduction pack because his eyes were on his granddaughter, who was looking at Nathan. ¡°Hello, Alpha Nathan!! I¡¯m Rose.¡± She said, introducing herself and bowing her head in respect. ¡°Aww!! You¡¯re so cute.¡± Nathan smiled and left his chair. ¡°Thank you, Alpha. Everyone says that frequently.¡± Roselet replied confidently.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. . #TBC 25 ¡°And everyone is true about it,¡± Nathan said and couched down at her height, pinching her cheeks. ¡°You look like mini Cindere.¡± ¡°Thank you again, Alpha. You¡¯re handsome too.¡± Roselet said and kissed his cheek, leaning toward him. Nathan melted at her sweet gesture and hugged her. A part of him regretted again for kicking Ethlyn out of the pack that day. He could have epted her pups and be the father of pups. Breaking the hug, Nathan spoke, ¡°Beta Zordan, your niece is such a charmer.¡± ¡°I know.¡± Zordan smiled, caressing her hair. ¡°Alpha Nathan, can I see your packhouse? It looks beautiful from the outside.¡± Roselet requested so that she could start looking for her mommy, who was supposed to be Alpha Nathan¡¯s mate. ¡°Rose, stay with me,¡± Zordan said. It was a written script. So, he said, showing his fake anger. ¡°Let her look around, Beta Zordan. I guess that¡¯s why she is here to enjoy herself. I will ask John to¡­¡± ¡°I will show her around. You can ask John to take them to my house.¡± Christian said, cutting him in between. He wanted to grab the opportunity to spend time with his granddaughter. ¡°Okay, Uncle Christian.¡± Nathan agreed. ¡°I will bring her to my home,¡± Christian said to Zordan, and the rest of his gang started looking at him. ¡®He is Ethlyn¡¯s father. Is there any chance that he knows Rose¡¯s identity?¡¯ Zordan thought. ¡°Okay, Zordy! I will be back after a small tour.¡± Roselet agreed quickly. ¡°Come on, Grandpa Christian.¡± She said, grabbing his hand. ¡°What¡­ what did you say?¡± Christian asked in surprise. ¡°You look like an old man, so I called you Grandpa. Is that okay with you?¡± Roselet asked innocently, knowing very well that he was indeed her grandfather. Calvin had shown her the footage of the CCTV camera. ¡°If you want, I can call you UNCLE because you look just a day older than Alpha Nathan.¡± She offered with a smile, and turning her head toward Nathan; she winked at him. Nathan chuckled at her cute behavior while Christianughed. ¡°Grand.. Grandpa, is fine with me,¡± Christian said, caressing her cheek. ¡°I don¡¯t want to be that young,¡± he added. ¡°Come on; I will give you a tour of the packhouse.¡± While Christian started taking her, Nathan asked, ¡°Is she your brother¡¯s pup?¡± ¡°Ahh. Not Exactly. I¡¯m a single child of my parents. She is the granddaughter of my dad¡¯s best friend, and I¡¯m close to her father as well.¡± Zordan replied. ¡®Why didn¡¯t Beta Zordan tell that Rose is the daughter of his Alpha?¡¯ Christian thought. ¡®Is that because of her safety or¡­. They find out the truth.¡¯ ¡°She is really a lovely pup. For a while, I wished to have a daughter just like her.¡± Nathan expressed his view. ¡°Most of us wish the same,¡± Lemieux replied. ¡°That¡¯s why her father always suggests adopting a female pup rather than just wishing. And pups are like wet soil; they will mold in a shape in which they are given shape,¡± he added. ¡®I can believe that Casanova Alpha has such amazing and intelligent pack members.¡¯ Nathan thought, not knowing that they were talking about the same Casanova Alpha. **** ¡°What¡¯s your name, dear?¡± ¡°Rose.¡± ¡°Just Rose?¡± Christian questioned to confirm his doubt and found her looking here and there. ¡°Yes, just Rose. It¡¯s my nickname.¡± She came back with a reply quickly.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°And what¡¯s your official full name?¡± Christian asked. ¡°Why are you asking so many questions?¡± Roselet questioned him back. ¡°To know you better.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Grandpa. But Daddy says that we shouldn¡¯t tell everything to strangers you just met.¡± Roselet responded cutely. Christian chuckled at her intelligence and gave her a tour of the hour. By observing her expression, it was clear that she was looking for someone. ¡°Are you looking for Ethlyn, dear?¡± He couldn¡¯t help but ask her directly by taking her to the top of the floor where there was no one to hear them. ¡°Wow!! Your pack is surrounded by so many mountains.¡± Roselet said, changing the topic. ¡°Rose!! I know you¡¯re smart and intelligent, but it¡¯s written on your face that you¡¯re looking for Ethlyn, aren¡¯t you?¡± Christian asked on which Roselet felt her n was exposed. She quickly moved away from him and looked at him, narrowing her eyes. ¡°Now, tell me the truth. You know that I¡¯m your grandfather, don¡¯t you?¡± Christian questioned her, to which she nodded her head slowly. He knelt down happily and wanted to hug her, but Roselet¡¯s question wasing next. ¡°Do¡­ do you know that I¡¯m your granddaughter?¡± ¡°I do. I do, dear. Give your grandpa a hug, princess.¡± Christian smiled and cried at the same time, opening his arms for her. ¡°Do you always know about it?¡± She questioned next in a serious tone. The smile and excitement that she had on her face previously were long gone. ¡°Dear¡­¡± ¡°That¡¯s not the answer to my question, Grandpa.¡± ¡°I¡­. I knew about it.¡± Christian epted, and hearing it, Roselet moved a little more away from him. ¡°Rose, won¡¯t you give your grandpa a hug?¡± ¡°Where were you all these years?¡± She asked, and tears started dwelling in her eyes. ¡°If¡­ if you knew, then why didn¡¯t you evere to meet me?¡± She asked another question. Roselet took out her hanky from her purse and wiped her tears with it. . #TBC 26 ¡°Daddy says a friend in need is a friend in deed. And the same rules apply to rtions; I won¡¯t give my grandpa a hug when he wasn¡¯t there to hug me.¡± She announced her decision. ¡°Rose¡­ I can exin¡­¡± Christian tried to hold her, but she ran away. ¡°Rose!!..¡± He rose on his feet to talk to her, who was now crying and running away from him. What did he expect? After kicking Roselet from their life, she would ept them with open arms just because she was a pup. Maybe it was the decision of Abigail, but his crime wouldn¡¯t lessen by ming everything on her head. ¡°Rose!! Wait, dear!! That area of the packhouse is weak.¡± He yelled, seeing her running in the wrong direction. That part of the pack house was more than a hundred years old. Roselet quickly stopped running and thought to return back to the other direction, and that was when her eyesnded on Ethlyn, who was walking toward the packhouse. She slowly walked near the railing to see her mommy, and surprisingly, she had also worn a blue top, matching her frock. ¡®Daddy told me that mommy didn¡¯t know about me.¡¯ She thought, wiping her tears. ¡°Rose,e to this side, dear!!¡± Christian requested, not going to the ce where she was because of his weight; the railing or floor might fall down earlier than expected as he could already hear the breaking of the foundation. ¡°Okay,¡± Roselet agreed and had barely kept a step toward Christian when that area broke and bent down, making her lose her bnce. ¡°Aaahhh!!¡± She screamed in fear and held the railing tightly. Christian could sense that the railing would break anytime, and then it would fall down with Roselet. He ran quickly to check there wasn¡¯t someone beneath in that area, and there wasn¡¯t, thankfully, and that was when his eyesnded on Ethlyn, who was running to breathe in that area. ¡®Dad, Moon Goddess, why the hell did you take a pup to that area.¡¯ Ethlyn mind linked him, not believing that that pup was with her father. ¡®Ask her to jump, leaving the railing.¡¯ She added. Her wolf immediately heard the of scream of the pup when Roselet screamed in fear. ¡°Rose!! Leave the railing and jump.¡± Christian said to which she shook her head. ¡°Jump, dear!! Ethlyn is there to catch you. If the railing will fall with you, then it might kill anyone who will try to catch you. So jump.¡± Christian suggested. ¡°And¡­ and now even your uncles are downstairs, jump.¡± He added, seeing Lemieux and one other man with him. Closing her eyes, Roselet left the railing and jumped from there. She was waiting for the pain, but after a while, she felt herself in someone¡¯s arms and then a loud noise of something falling after her, but by that time, Ethlyn had already moved aside, and that¡¯s when the railing fell down, it didn¡¯t harm anyone. At the same time, Roselet tightened her grip around her savior without opening her eyes. ¡°Princess, are you alright?¡± Lemieux asked, caressing her hair. ¡°Open your eyes and look around; you¡¯re safe now,¡± Asher spoke. For a while, he felt he was dead. If anything would have happened to Roselet, then Calvin would have killed each of them no matter how close they were close to him. Roselet slowly opened her eyes, and the person she looked at was the woman for whom she was here. ¡°Mommy?¡± Roselet whispered, widening Ethlyn¡¯s eyes, who were looking at her in concern. Lemieux was quick to take her in his arms, realizing what Roselet had just whispered. ¡°Just like every pup, she missed her mommy after this incident.¡± He muttered while in these times, everyone was already there. Asher checked her legs and hands in search of any injuries, but he couldn¡¯t smelt any. ¡°How does this happen?¡± Nathan asked in confusion.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°Why did you take her to the top floor, Dad? And even if you took her there, then you should have been more careful. What if anything would have happened to her? Her parents might have gotten a heart attack after hearing this news.¡± Ethlyn couldn¡¯t help but question her father. ¡°Ethlyn, rx!! Take a deep breath.¡± Nathan said, cing his hand on her shoulder. ¡°You look worried and scared like she is her daughter, and you almost got a heart attack. Right now, Rose¡¯s heartbeat and your heartbeats are running at almost the same speed.¡± he joked to lighten the atmosphere. At Nathan¡¯s words, both Ethlyn and Roselet looked at each other. Ethlyn wasn¡¯t someone who got attached to any pup by just her look, but for some reason, she was feeling a connection with this unknown pup who identally called her Mommy. * Ethlyn couldn¡¯t stop thinking about Roselet. She wanted to go and check on her, but she just couldn¡¯t do it just like that. ¡®Why couldn¡¯t? Just go to the guest house and check on her.¡¯ Cinder demanded. ¡®Did you forget how scared she looked when her uncles took her with them?¡¯ She questioned, reminded how Lemieux took her with him, cooing her softly to make her forget what just happened. ¡®And why are you so concerned about her? Till morning, you wanted me to dig for the truth, and now, you started diverting my mind already?¡¯ Ethlyn asked. ¡®She is not our pup, so stop worrying for her, OR we will suffer the most when she will leave.¡¯ Cinder growled at her but didn¡¯t answer her back because she knew that her human was right. But they both knew that Roselet had brought a lot of emotions in her just by saying, ¡®Mommy.¡¯ ¡°I¡¯m sorry, dad. I shouldn¡¯t have talked with you for a stranger.¡± She apologized. ¡°I should have known that it must be that pup¡¯s mistake.¡± She added. . #TBC 27 ¡°It¡¯s okay, Princess,¡± Christian responded. ¡°It was my mistake, so please don¡¯t me her. I just hope this incident doesn¡¯t give her any trauma,¡± he added in concern. Hearing it, Cinder started getting worried again. She could feel a bond with the pup that her human couldn¡¯t understand and she couldn¡¯t recognize. ¡°Did she reject her mate already?¡± Christian asked, entering the house and finding Reva crying bitterly while Abigail was consoling her. ¡°No. That Beta left her in the middle of the conversation and ran away.¡± Abigail responded. ¡°That¡¯s why I¡¯m telling her to reject that beta who doesn¡¯t care about her.¡± ¡°Moon Goddess, Mom!! Stop brainwashing her.¡± Ethlyn said in irritation. ¡°You¡¯re acting like a vamp in your daughter¡¯s life.¡± ¡°Ethlyn, mind your to¡­¡± ¡°She is telling the truth, Abby. Stop giving ideas to Reva for rejecting her mate, or I will have to get rid of a mate like you.¡± Christian said, cutting her in between, shocking her. ¡°Enough is enough, now.¡± ¡°But Christ¡­.¡± Christian was already pissed at himself from Roselet¡¯s rejection, and Abigail¡¯s next drama was bringing the worst out of him. ¡°Not a word.¡± He growled. ¡°Not a single word or you will find yourself out of my life and this house as well,¡± he warned. Both Reva and Ethlyn were surprised to see their father this angry. Reva forgot her crying, and her mind shifted to this incident. ¡°I don¡¯t want to insult the mother of my pups, but it¡¯s ENOUGH now.¡± He ordered and looked at Reva. ¡°There is one simple rule of any rtionship, Reva. Never! Never entertain a third person between mate bonds. Even if it includes your own parents, if you wanted to know why he left all of a sudden, then you could have followed him and would have asked about it rather than assuming things on your own.¡± ¡°Ye.. yes, dad,¡± Reva muttered. ¡°And you have to listen to your mom, then go ahead and reject him. I will be happy for that werewolf whose life got saved from getting ruined by an evil witch.¡± By saying this, Christian left from there, and Reva¡¯s jaw dropped. A secondter, even Abigail left from there. ¡°Did¡­ did dad call me an evil witch instead of a princess?¡± She asked Ethlyn, who sensed that her dad was angry with her mom for some reason. But what could her mom have done because of which her peace-loving dad was so pissed? Ethlyn reached near her and pinched her hard. ¡°Aaouch! Ouch!!¡± Reva cried. ¡°I should be going to check on my mate.¡± ***** ¡°Grandpa Christian knows our secret.¡± Roselet finally spoke. She didn¡¯t speak a single word from the moment she fell from the top floor. She got so scared that it took everyone a good amount of time to cheer her up for two reasons. One, because she was everyone¡¯s favorite, and second because they wanted to stay alive. ¡°When he told me that he always knew about me and asked me to hug him, I denied it and started running away from him and¡­ and that was when all this happened.¡± She replied with the answer to the question which they had been asking for a while, but she had kept her mouth at that time. ¡°I knew it,¡± Zordan said after listening to that. ¡°I sensed it the moment he grabbed the opportunity to give a tour of the packhouse.¡± ¡°The best thing is our princess is all right,¡± Lemieux said. ¡°And I guess jumping from that height would have been fun, like bungee jumping. After all, she is the daughter of Adventure king,¡± he said, pinching her cheek. ¡°That¡¯s true. Calvin was full of fun in his young days.¡± ¡°Really?¡± Roselet asked to which Zordan nodded his head. ¡°There is not a single activity left that he didn¡¯t do. He was known for his fearless act.¡± ¡°Okay then. I will tell him about today¡¯s incident, and he will be thrilled to know that I¡¯m following in his footsteps in terms of fun.¡± Roselet said with excitement. She was scared before until this truth was revealed to her. She loved being told that she was just like her father. Little did she know that everyone told her so that she would stop feeling scared, but Zordan¡¯s face color paled. ¡°No! No. Don¡¯t tell him about it.¡± He said quickly. As much as he knew his friend, Calvin would get a heart attack after listening to this news, even though Roselet was absolutely fine. That carefree and fearless Calvin could stay a second silently if anything concerned his daughter. ¡°But why? I don¡¯t hide anything from Calvin. And he does the same with me.¡± She asked in confusion. ¡°Zordan means to say that tell him about it after reaching near him, pleaseeee.¡± Asher requested. ¡°But Calvin asked me never to hide anything from him. Because that¡¯s bad manners.¡± ¡°We aren¡¯t asking you to hide anything from Alpha, princess. Just tell him about it after reaching there, or he might get worried and won¡¯t be able to focus on his work.¡± Asher exined. ¡°Guys, my mate is approaching here,¡± Zordan said, sensing Reva¡¯s scent. ¡°Your mate? Did you find your real fated mate?¡± Roselet asked because she didn¡¯t know about it.Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. ¡°Yes, Princess. And guess what? She is the younger sister of your mommy.¡± Zordan said. ¡°Wooooow!!¡± She jumped in excitement and recalled that Ethlyn didn¡¯t have any mark on her shoulder, just like a marked female she-wolf. ¡®It means that she is not imed by Alpha Nathan. And it also means that she can be imed by someone else. She can be imed by my daddy.¡¯ . #TBC 28 Her innocent mind thought about it and smiled on her own. She remembered Calvin¡¯s words not to dream of seeing her real mommy and daddy together, but she couldn¡¯t find any reason why she shouldn¡¯t dream about it. Not when her mommy was single, just like her daddy. * ¡°Moon Goddess, you¡¯re so cute.¡± Reva giggled. Ethlyn¡¯s ear quickly rose to wonder with whom her sister was talking. Thest time she had seen her, she was crying over nothing, and now she was giggling. After a while, she inhaled the scent of the same pup and another scent with her. ¡°Zordan, your niece is amazing.¡± Cinder started pacing in Ethlyn¡¯s mind, sensing Roselet. She started convincing her human to walk out of the hellhole and meet her, asking her how she was feeling now. ¡°Thank you, Aunt Reva,¡± Roselet replied. ¡°Noooo!! Don¡¯t call me ¡®AUNT.¡¯ I¡¯m too young for Aunt.¡± Reva said. ¡°You call Zordan as Zordy and me as Aunt? That¡¯s unfair. Call me Reva.¡± She added. ¡°I look just three to five years olderpared to you,¡± Reva said, on which Roselet giggled. It was when Reva observed the simrity between Roselet and her grandmother. She surely didn¡¯t look exactly like her grandmother, but her blue eyes and half of her facial structure were like her father¡¯s mother. No one in the family looks like her dad¡¯s mother. Hell, no one was blessed with blue eyes in this generation. ¡°Mom, dad, and Ethlyn are at home. In that way, you can get to know them and spend some time with them.¡± Reva said to which Zordan nodded his head. He wasn¡¯t interested in knowing her family members, not after having an idea of what they did with Roselet. He was here just because Roselet dragged him here. ¡°I¡¯m hungry. Can I get something to eat?¡± Roselet asked. ¡°Of course!!¡± Reva said and looked in the fruit basket. ¡°Will you eat a banana?¡± She asked her. Roselet looked at the banana and made a face. ¡°The Bananas are brown. It¡¯s time to throw them away.¡± Roseletined. Hearing herment, Abigail quickly wanted toe out of the room and give an earful lecture to this princess, who was asking to throw bananas just because it was a little bit brown, but Christian signaled her to sit quietly and listen what was happening out and how Reva was going to handle that situation. But Reva didn¡¯t know how to handle this situation, especially with a pup. ¡°So, you don¡¯t want to eat the banana?¡± Zordan asked, stepping in between the conversation, on which Roselet shook her head. ¡°Milk and cookies will be fine,¡± Roselet said and hoped for Ethlyn toe out of her room. ¡°How about Banana bread and milk?¡± Zordan offered. ¡°It sounds perfect,¡± Roselet responded. Reva leaned toward Zordan and whispered, ¡°I don¡¯t know C of cooking.¡± She assumed that Zordan was going to ask her to prepare bread. ¡°Don¡¯t worry; I know cooking. Since it¡¯s your house and your kitchen, you can help me with the ingredients, and in that way, we can spend some time in the kitchen as well, where I can teach you how to cook banana bread.¡± Reva smiled and agreed with his proposal. She quickly gave 10/10 marks to him in her mind for his understanding skill. ¡°Can I watch it too?¡± Roselet asked.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Sure, princess!!¡± * ¡°First, we have to peel our bananas and mash them together in a bowl,¡± Zordan exined the procedure. ¡°Oooohhh¡± Both girls cheered for him. ¡°Then we have to cream together some melted butter and brown sugar.¡± ¡°Ummm¡­ sugar!! I love the sweet dish.¡± Roselet said. ¡°Me too,¡± Reva said. ¡°Then we have to add our butter and brown sugar with the bananas and then add two beaten eggs.¡± Zordan kept sharing his knowledge with them and found Reva staring at him without blinking her eyes. He silently smacked at her firm ass to bring her to the real world. ¡°What the¡­¡± Reva was about to say something about it. ¡°What happened?¡± He asked innocently, and even Roselet looked at her, wondering what had happened to her. ¡°Nothing.¡± ¡°Cool. So, now we have to take another bowl, add some flour, baking soda, and a pinch of salt in it and mix them well. After that, we have to mix both dry and wet ingredients together.¡± ¡°Nelina always puts some chocte chips in the bread. Can you do the same?¡± Roselet asked. Zordan looked at Reva, silently asking whether they had chocte chips at home. ¡°We, too, have chocte chips at home,¡± Reva said and got a cup of chocte chips and poured it into the bowl. After mixing it well, Zordan kept the batter in the oven to bake it. And used that time to clean the kitchen. * ¡®Reva is surely a traitor. She never helps me in the kitchen, and today, she is helping her mate in the kitchen, learning how to cook bread with him.¡¯ Abigailined about it to her mate through the mind link. ¡®I¡¯m d that she is helping him if she doesn¡¯t know how to cook.¡¯ Christian responded. ¡®Now she is going to enter into a new phase of her life, and it will be better that she will start epting the new changes in her life.¡¯ ¡®Her mate is from Blood Moon Pack.¡¯ ¡®So?¡¯ ¡®So? Really, don¡¯t you know how the past of Ethlyn and the Alpha of the pack are connected? Moon Goddess, if¡­ if Ethlyn¡¯s pup¡­¡¯ ¡®Dare you to say any wrong words about my granddaughter.¡¯ Christian warned, cutting her in between. Abigail didn¡¯tplete her sentence, sensing the seriousness in his tone. While on the other side, Roselet sneaked from the kitchen, leaving the couple when she saw them ying a staring game. None of them was ready to blink their eyes. . #TBC 29 In normal eyes, she would have also yed with them, but she was on a mission. So, she started looking for Ethlyn. She saw a dark room near the living room, so she slowly walked in. She looked here and there, and because of the light in the living room, she could see that there were a lot of books in that dark room. ¡®This is a library. I guess.¡¯ She thought. She unzipped her purse and pulled out the phone that Calvin had given to her to talk with her as he couldn¡¯t mind link her. She switched on the shlight and looked for the switch. And finding it, she quickly switched on all the switches in the library, cing her phone in her purse. She turned around and found her mommy ring at her, maybe because someone had reced her darkness with light. ¡°Didn¡¯t your parents teach you that you shouldn¡¯t walk here and there in someone else¡¯s house?¡± Ethlyn asked rudely to keep this little trouble away from her. ¡°Didn¡¯t your parents teach you that you shouldn¡¯t speak rudely with a pup?¡± Roselet asked, getting angry. She believed that she was a well-behaved pup so that no one could get a chance to me her daddy for not raising her well, and the moment Ethlyn asked that question, the smile that was on her lips, and she fumed in anger. ¡°What the¡­¡± Ethlyn opened her mouth to scold her but couldn¡¯t find the right word. ¡°This is my house, pup.¡± ¡°This is also my aunt Reva¡¯s house.¡± Roselet came back with an answer quickly. ¡°Both of you, this is my house,¡± Christian said, hearing them fighting. Roselet and Ethlyn looked up and found Christian. ¡°Grandpa Christ, your daughter, is so rude,¡± Roseletined about Ethlyn to Ethlyn¡¯s father. ¡°Finally, someone spoke the truth,¡± Abigail said and came walking behind Christian, looking at the pup whom Reva assumed was Zordan¡¯s daughter. ¡°Daddy taught me to speak the truth,¡± Roselet responded, assuming Abigail was her grandmother. ¡°Oh, Really? And what did your mommy teach you to look around in someone else¡¯s house like a thief?¡± Ethlyn asked in a sarcastic way. All of a sudden, Roselet¡¯s face paled, and Zordan growled at Ethlyn. Reva quickly grabbed his arms because she felt like her mate might attack her elder sister. ¡°You¡¯re very bad,¡± Roselet said with teary eyes and ran away from there. . ¡°Rose..¡± Zordan was about to run after her to calm her down but not before giving the answer to the question that Ethlyn asked Roselet in a sarcastic way. ¡°I won¡¯t ask you whether your mother taught you to sleep with another man when you already had a mate like a slut¡­Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. ¡°Zordan!!¡± Reva gasped. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, mate. I didn¡¯t want to say anything to her, but she crossed her limit by saying something to Rose, and I don¡¯t prioritize my new rtionship, leaving the old one.¡± He said and looked at Ethlyn, ¡°And yes, the answer to your question is that no, her mother didn¡¯t teach her anything because she was never there for her.¡± Saying this, he left from there. Reva looked between her sister and her mate. ¡°You should follow him,¡± Ethlyn said and started leaving when Reva grabbed her wrist. ¡°I know, my sister. She can never be so rude with a pup. Then why did you treat Rose like this, Ethlyn? You, too, know that you shouldn¡¯t have called Rose a thief still; you did. Why?¡± Reva asked, but Ethlyn pulled her hand away from her grip and left from there. ¡°What the fuck!!¡± Reva muttered and started leaving from there as well to follow Zordan. ¡°Stay here. I will bring them and will apologize on behalf of Ethlyn.¡± Christian said, stopping Reva. ¡°Okay, dad.¡± Reva nodded her head and looked at her mother, who was quiet the whole time; once Christian left, Reva expected her to speak, but she didn¡¯t. ¡°Don¡¯t you want to say anything? Ethlyn has been changed from the day she woke up. Someone said it right that pain changes people. It makes them trust less, overthink more, and shut people out. She is not able to ept the fact that her pups are no more.¡± ¡°She will be fine soon,¡± Abigail muttered. ¡°I haven¡¯t be a mother, so I don¡¯t know about it but if you are saying so, then¡­ let¡¯s see.¡± * ¡°We¡¯re leaving,¡± Zordan said, entering the guest house, carrying a really sad Roselet. ¡°Why? What happened?¡± Lemieux asked, looking at the sad face of Roselet. ¡°We were going to leave from the pack tomorrow, weren¡¯t we? ¡°Rose wanted to meet her mother and she met her. I don¡¯t think there is any need to stay a day longer here.¡± Zordan said. ¡°Let¡¯s pack her bag.¡± He ordered him to pack just her bag because no one of them had brought a lot of things like her. ¡°Zordy, I want to stay out,¡± Roselet muttered, not denying his n to leave. ¡°Okay!!¡± he agreed and put her down, giving the nod to Lemieux. Roselet had barely left when Christian reached there to talk with them. ¡°I want to talk with you, Zordan,¡± Christian said, on which he just red at him. ¡°Damian, go and pack Rose¡¯s belongings. Make sure that we don¡¯t leave any single clips of her.¡± Zordan said and looked at Asher and Astin. ¡°And you both, go and inform the Alpha that we are leaving today itself.¡± ¡°Zordan, I apologize on behalf of Ethlyn. She shouldn¡¯t have talked like that with Rose.¡± Christian said. . #TBC . A/N: I¡¯m sorry for the slow update. I joined Gymst week, and I¡¯m learning to try to handle the pain that I feel all over my body. 30 ¡°Please don¡¯t take Rose from here just after this incident, or she will always have bitter memories in her mind rted to her,¡± Christian said, to which Zordan ignored him. Asher and Austin left from there to inform Nathan, just like Zordan ordered. ¡°Zordan, please ask them to stop. I request you.¡± Christian said again. ¡°I¡¯m neither going to stop them nor going to stay an hour more here,¡± Zordan said in determination. He wouldn¡¯t let Roselet stay anywhere where someone would misbehave with her or make her cry. ¡°I wouldn¡¯t have asked you to say after the words you used for Ethlyn either, but I know you didn¡¯t want to say those things. In the same way, my Ethlyn didn¡¯t behave normally and had not behaved like herself from the time she woke up from thea, and she has been told that her pup is not alive.¡± ¡°What?¡± Zordan looked at him in surprise. ¡°Yes!! That¡¯s what she thinks about her pup. That¡¯s why she is kind of going through a difficult phase, trying to handle this news.¡± Christian muttered, feeling ashamed. ¡°And she believed this lie? Didn¡¯t she smell your lies?¡± Zordan asked, unable to believe this. ¡°Actually, she didn¡¯t. Because¡­ because she gave birth to twins.¡± Saying this, Christian told him everything. Everything that he knew, everything that happened with Ethlyn until now. ¡°People don¡¯t need any enemies in their life if they are blessed with parents like you both,¡± Zordan said, shaking his head. He was thinking that Ethlyn was characterless, just like Calvin told about her, and a part of his human was doubting Reva after all; she was Ethlyn¡¯s sister, but now, listening to Ethlyn¡¯s side of the story, he felt pity for her and sorry as well that he said all those meaningless things to her in anger. ¡°I don¡¯t regret Rose keeping away from us because I know that she has been raised with a lot of love in these past years. Love that she couldn¡¯t have received among this pack members and my mate. But¡­ But I¡¯m thinking of telling the truth about her pups soon. It¡¯s just that I¡¯m not able to gather the courage to tell her the truth because I know the moment she will get to know what I did with her daughter. I¡¯m going to lose my daughter forever.¡± Hearing Christian¡¯s heavy voice, Zordan felt bad for him. Maybe what he did with Rose came out to be the best for her, but what if Calvin wouldn¡¯t have epted her or, like a cruel Alpha, would have treated his daughter like a ve, or there was a lot of chance that could have happened? ¡°We won¡¯t leave today, and I will try that Rose won¡¯t leave from here with a bad image of her mommy,¡± Zordan said. ¡°Thank you so much, Zordan.¡± ¡°By the way, do you have any idea how Ethlynnded in Calvin¡¯s room that night?¡± Zordan asked, trying to solve the mystery of that night. ¡°No. Even though Ethlyn went into Alpha¡¯s room on her own. Why did he¡­ I mean, why did he take advantage of Ethlyn when she wasn¡¯t in her senses?¡± Christian asked, not sure that Zordan would have the answer to this question, but then again, Beta stayed with his Alpha almost all the time, so there could be a chance that he might know something about it. ¡°She wasn¡¯t in her senses? Even Calvin wasn¡¯t in his sense that night. Also, he was supposed to spend the night with someone else. He realized that the woman swapped the next day, so without checking her face, he left thinking that woman would be someone who sleeps with everyone. And he has the same thinking about Ethlyn.¡± Christian¡¯s jaw clenched, hearing it, but he asked something else, ¡°So, he never asked the other woman with whom he was going to spend that night where she was that night? And why did she inform him before disappearing or anything like that?¡± ¡°No. Calvin didn¡¯t get a chance to meet her again. And she wasn¡¯t that important to him either.¡± Zordan responded. ¡°But is it possible that Ethlyn reached Calvin¡¯s room because of that woman? Maybe Calvin didn¡¯t know that woman, but somehow Ethlyn knows her? Or she knows Ethlyn, and that¡¯s why sheid that trap on Ethlyn.¡± Christian tried to think about all the possibilities. But at the same time, he too realized that only Calvin could tell what that other woman looked like and the chances of helping those people who left his daughter, and because of this, he spent years in search of his daughter¡¯s mommy as they had wiped all the evidence that could have led Calvin to Ethlyn. **** On the other side, Roselet wanted to spend some time alone, which was why Lemieux shifted and took her to the area where she pointed with her tiny finger. From afar, Roselet saw a lot of little stones, but when they reached there, she realized that it was a cemetery. Lemieux already knew that it was a cemetery, not a ce of white stone, because of his superhuman eyesight. ¡°This is a graveyard, Lemi,¡± Roselet said, still sitting on his back and looking around. ¡°We should go from here. I don¡¯t want to disturb the sleep of the people resting here.¡± She added. But Lemieux didn¡¯t leave from there immediately because he sensed someone else¡¯s presence there, so instead of leaving from there, he walked slowly, following the scent. ¡°That¡¯s her,¡± Roselet said, looking at Ethlyn, who was sitting near her son¡¯s grave, holding it near her chest. By looking at her, it looked like that she had no idea of anything around her. Roselet waited for a while to get noticed by her mother, but it didn¡¯t happen. But she did realize that Ethlyn was crying because she was bringing her hand near her face to wipe the tears. .Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. #TBC 31 ¡°Lemi, crouch, please,¡± Roselet said and then jumped from his back. She walked toward Ethlyn, hoping she would not shout at her again. Cinder was mad at Ethlyn for talking like that with Roselet; that was why she blocked her human. She couldn¡¯t behave that her human believed rudely with a pup just because she was getting attracted to her. But that wasn¡¯t in Cinder¡¯s control. Just like a mate bond, she could feel connected to Roselet. Also, when Roselet called her ¡®Mommy,¡¯ she felt that Roselet said that to her after looking at her, not because Roselet was scared. Her human¡¯s word was that she was getting desperate because they recently came to know about the loss of their pup. ¡°Mommy?¡± Ethlyn heard out of nowhere and looked at the source of the voice, lifting her head. She found Roselet looking at her in concern. * Roselet pulled out her hanky from her purse and wiped her mother¡¯s tears with it. After wiping it, she looked at her hanky and spoke dramatically, ¡°I¡¯m d that you don¡¯t wear tons of makeup; otherwise, my hanky would have been ruined.¡± Roselet looked at Ethlyn to see whether her words made her smile or not but she didn¡¯t smile at all. ¡°Feeling good?¡± She asked, keeping her hanky inside her purse. ¡°What did you just say?¡± Ethlyn asked sternly. ¡°Feeling good?¡± ¡°Before that.¡± ¡°I¡¯m d that you don¡¯t wear tons of makeup; otherwise, my hanky would have been ruined.¡± ¡°Before that.¡± ¡°Mommy?¡± ¡°Listen, pup; I¡¯m not your mommy. Just because you don¡¯t have a mommy doesn¡¯t mean you will call me mommy.¡± Ethlyn said rudely because every time Roselet used to call her mommy, her wolf used to get out of her control because of happiness and excitement. ¡°You¡¯re my mommy. It¡¯s just that this truth is unaware of you.¡± Roselet corrected her innocently. ¡°And I have a mommy; what do you think about where Ie from? My daddy didn¡¯t buy me from the mall.¡± She then responded rudely to Ethlyn. Ethlyn was taken aback hearing her, she opened her mouth to say something, anything, but no words came out of her mouth. While she observed Roselet, Roselet read the cemetery marker that Ethlyn had hugged.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. ¡®In Loving Memory of Christian Junior Smith, 5th Dec 20XX.¡¯ ¡®Beloved Son, Grandson & Nephew.¡¯ ¡°Who was he?¡± Roselet asked, sitting beside Ethlyn and touching that cemetery, thinking the person sleeping inside would be someone rted to her. Tears dwelled in Ethlyn¡¯s eyes, and immediately her tone changed, ¡°He was my pup.¡± After replying to her, Ethlyn started crying again while Roselet couldn¡¯t understand. She wanted to ask a lot of questions, but then, she knew that her mommy knew nothing. She observed the date again and started counting. Her real birthday was celebrated eleven days prior to Christmas, but this date was twenty days prior to Christmas and the same birth year. Calvin used to celebrate her birthday every month, just an excuse to celebrate a day with her by eating their favorite chocte cake, just the two of them. But she knew that when her real birthday was celebrated, all her family members used to be there with her, along with pack members. ¡®Uncle Colton and Calvin are twins. Aunt Lee and Aunt Tee are also twins. So, is it possible that I had a twin brother?¡¯ She wondered, but she had no one to answer this question. ¡®But how is it possible that he was nine days older than me? Only Calvin can tell me about it.¡¯ She thought. ¡®Or maybe Moon Goddess gifted me to Daddy and gifted my brother to mommy, and he¡­.¡¯ Tears started flowing out of her eyes with that thought. The fact that she had a brother whom she couldn¡¯t meet ever saddens her even more than before. Ethlyn stopped crying when she saw Roselet crying. Roselet hugged Christian cemetery and started crying loudly. ¡°Hey, pup!!¡± Ethlyn tried to console her, unable to understand why Roselet was crying as if her pup was also rted to Roselet for real. ¡°Ssshhh!! Stop crying.¡± Ethlyn pulled Roselet in herp and hugged her close to her chest, and tried to calm her down. ¡°Tears don¡¯t suit your beautiful eyes.¡± She said, kissing her hair. ¡°I¡­ I.. had a bro.. Brother..¡± Roselet said between her cries. ¡°¡­ whom I.. I couldn¡¯t me.. meet.¡± Ethlyn wanted to correct her that her pup wasn¡¯t her brother, but it wasn¡¯t the time to make her understand that part. At that moment, she had to just calm Roselet down, who wasn¡¯t ready to stop her tears. ¡°Aahhhh!!¡± Hearing Lemieux¡¯s cries, Roselet quickly looked toward him. She saw him in human form, and his arms were bleeding badly. ¡°What happened, Lemi?¡± She left Ethlyn¡¯sp and ran toward him, seeing him injured while Ethlyn sighed in relief when she realized that Roselet¡¯s mind had finally diverted. Even Lemieux saw Roselet crying non-stop; that was why he injured on his own by wood and then threw it away. After that, he faked his cries to gain Roselet¡¯s attention. He didn¡¯t mind injuring himself to stop Roselet from crying, and by Moon Goddess¡¯s blessing, he had the power to quickly heal. ¡°You¡¯re bleeding so much. Does someone attack you?¡± She asked, checking his wound and then looking around in search of any danger. Calvin had taught her to run away quickly, seeing danger because she wasn¡¯t big enough to fight on her own. ¡°This area isn¡¯t safe. Let¡¯s go to the pack hospital quickly.¡± Ethlyn joined the drama. ¡°Lemi, I guess that¡¯s your name. Can you shift?¡± ¡°Yes!!¡± ¡°Perfect. Shift quickly. I will ce her¡­¡± Ethlyn said, looking at Roselet, ¡°on your back. So that you can run away from here to keep her safe.¡± . #TBC 32 ¡°No. He is already injured; that¡¯s why I will sit on your back.¡± Roselet said, shaking her head. ¡°And I also have to make sure that you¡¯re safe.¡± She said. ¡°What the¡­¡± ¡°Shift quickly. We don¡¯t have time. Daddy says to use your legs and mind instead of your mouth in the time of danger.¡± Roselet gave her a lecture. Ethlyn pressed her lips tightly and shifted in the next moment. She crouched so that Roselet could sit on herfortably. To keep Roselet involved in other things, Lemieux even got bandages at the pack hospital. All of a sudden, Roselet¡¯s stomach growled loudly, reminding her that she hadn¡¯t eaten anything for long. ¡°You cane home with me. The banana bread with a lot of chocte chips is still there.¡± Ethlyn offered, recalling how Roselet couldn¡¯t get a chance to eat at her home because of their conversation. ¡°Only if you will apologize to me for your rude behavior.¡± Roselet ced her condition even though she was hungry like hell. Ethlyn narrowed her eyes but finally apologized, ¡°I¡¯m a sorry pup.¡± ¡°Hmm. You¡¯re forgiven since it was your first mistake but remember; I won¡¯t be easy on you if you will repeat the same mistake.¡± ¡°Okay, Mommmmm. Now, if you¡¯re done, can we go to my dad¡¯s house?¡± Ethlyn asked. ¡°Up!!¡± Roselet said, raising her hand. ¡°You can walk on your own.¡± ¡°I¡¯m a BABY.¡± Roselet pouted. Hearing it, Lemieux raised his eyebrow; he was well aware of Roselet¡¯s ¡®BABY¡¯ word to her benefit. Ethlyn lifted her in her arms and again felt a strong bond with her. **** ¡°So, how is banana bread?¡± Reva asked, caressing Roselet¡¯s hair. ¡°It¡¯s tasty.¡± ¡°I hope you learned that just because bananas were brown, It doesn¡¯t mean it was rotten. It still tastes the same, and we can create tasty things out of it.¡± Reva said. ¡°Noooo. Banana bread is tasty because of chocte chips.¡± Roselet said, on which Reva¡¯s jaw dropped while a smile appeared on Ethlyn¡¯s lips. It looked like this little pup had learned to shut everyone¡¯s mouth. ¡°Okay, you won,¡± Reva said and leaned toward her. ¡°By the way, I need your little help, Rose.¡± ¡°What kind of help?¡± Roselet asked. ¡°Your Zordy was saying that he will leave by tomorrow evening because he has to reach by Monday and also, you have school on Monday. Can you convince him to stay a day more, please?¡± Reva requested because she observed that Roselet was close to Zordan, and it didn¡¯t look like he would say NO to Roselet¡¯s request.Belongs to N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved. ¡°Reva, don¡¯t use her for getting your work done.¡± Ethlyn scolded her. ¡°I¡¯m not using her. It¡¯s just that I¡¯m thinking of spending some time with him, and also, mom suggested that we can introduce him to all our family members by holding a small function tomorrow.¡± Reva suggested but hearing the name of ¡®FUNCTION,¡¯ Ethlyn recalled the embarrassment and insult that she faced on her pup¡¯s gender-revealing function. Without saying anything, she left from there. Reva looked at Roselet, who was already looking at her. ¡°Rose, I¡¯m not using you, okay? It¡¯s just a request.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I will convince him to stay a day more.¡± Roselet said with a smile. She knew with whom she had to talk about it. *** ¡°Daddddyyyyy¡± ¡°Yes, love!!¡± Calvin smiled, knowing that his love had a request for her. ¡°Can I stay here a day more?¡± She asked in a low tone, and immediately Calvin¡¯s smile vanished from his lips. Only he knew how a day of 12 hours he spent was like 12 days. Since it was the weekend, he missed her like hell, and now she wanted to stay a day more. ¡°Don¡¯t you miss me, love?¡± He asked. ¡°There wasn¡¯t a second when I didn¡¯t miss you, Calvin.¡± ¡°Then why do you want to stay there a day more? Do you now love your mommy more than me?¡± Calvin asked. ¡°I will always love the most in the world, daddy,¡± Roselet confessed. ¡°Zordy found her mate, and they are keeping a function tomorrow night, so please allow him and me to stay here a day more. Please. Please.¡± Roselet requested. Zordan had already informed Calvin about him finding his fated mate and also her identity. But he didn¡¯t inform Calvin about the function nor share his desire to stay a day more, maybe because he knew that Calvin needed Roselet like oxygen to his body. ¡°Fine. Just a day.¡± Calvin agreed without saying anything, knowing that even his daughter wanted to spend some more time with her mommy. ¡°Thank you. Thank you so much, Calvin. You¡¯re the best.¡± Roselet screamed in excitement. ¡°I will die if you won¡¯t be here the day after tomorrow.¡± Calvin emotionally ckmailed her so that she wouldn¡¯t ask for ONE day more again. ¡°I promise I will be there,¡± Roselet promised him. ¡°Now, tell me, how was your day?¡± She asked, to which Calvin told her everything, and after that, Calvin asked the same of Roselet. Since everyone had asked her not to tell him the incident of falling from the roof, she skipped that part.¡± ¡°Calvin, do you know that I had a twin brother as well? Just like you have Uncle Colton.¡± She informed, dropping a bomb on him. . #TBC . A/N: The next couple of chapters would be like dropping a lot of bombs on both Calvin and Ethlyn, especially Ethlyn. As for now, in my head, the next chapters sound fantastic, but only god knows how I¡¯m going to present them. 33 ¡°Who¡­ who told you that?¡± Calvin asked. He didn¡¯t miss that Roselet used ¡®HAD¡¯ while talking about it. ¡°Mommy,¡± Roselet replied. ¡°She told me about him. Lemi and I found her in the graveyard today, and she was crying bitterly thinking about him. But Cavin, I have a question. His birthday is twenty days prior to Christmas, while my birthday is eleven days prior to Christmas. Are twins born after nine days?¡± She asked innocently. Calvin didn¡¯t answer her immediately, but as much as he could think, he assumed that he had been celebrating Roselet¡¯s birthday on the wrong date. Also, how the hell would he know that when she was born exactly when he wasn¡¯t there when she was born? He started celebrating her birthday from the day he found her in a little box. But he just couldn¡¯t drop that bomb on her over the video call; he had to talk about it when she would be near him, in his arms, where he could clear all her doubts and insecurities. ¡°I will answer this question when you will be in my arms, snuggling close to your daddy, Princess.¡± Calvin teased her, on which Roselet pouted. ¡°Dadddyyyy, No!! I don¡¯t like waiting.¡± ¡°Thene back to me as soon as possible. Your daddy misses you.¡± ¡°I miss you too, Calvin. By the way, I, too, have to tell you about the incident of how I met my mommy when we will meet.¡± Roselet said, thinking about the roof incident. ¡°I will be waiting for that. Now, resume what else you did today or what had happened around you.¡± Calvin asked curiously. Roselet told him that how Christian Smith knew about her and asked her to hug him, to which she denied. Calvin didn¡¯tment on that part because he had never taught his daughter to behave like this, but even her anger for her grandpa wasn¡¯t wrong. After talking for hours, Roselet started feeling sleepy after listening to the bedtime story. She adjusted her phone with the pillow in such a way that Calvin could still see her face, even when she would be asleep. Calvin kissed the phone screen, watching his pup sleeping peacefully. He watched how Zordan came to check on her and covered her properly with the nket.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°You can sleep now, Calvin. You didn¡¯t sleep evenst night.¡± Zordan said, looking at the phone. ¡°Sure. But before that, I have to talk with you. Rose told me that your mate¡¯s family members are nning to organize some functions for you. So, you can stay a day more there.¡± Calvin said, keeping a stone in his heart. ¡°I don¡¯t want you toe here leaving your mate just because I¡¯m having a hard time living without Rose.¡± ¡°We can return back to pack with Rose,¡± Lemieux spoke between the friendly conversation. Otherwise, it was considered as disrespecting Alpha and Beta by speaking in between them. ¡°Are you serious, Lemi?¡± Zordan asked. ¡°There is no way I¡¯m attending any party or function without my people.¡± He added. ¡°I can¡¯t invite all my family members, rtives, and friends here because this is not my pack but those who are here just can¡¯t leave me.¡± ¡°Also, I know my princess wants to spend a day more there,¡± Calvin added. ¡°When you all went together, make sure toe together as well,¡± he added. ¡°Calvin, will youe to this function then? We can then leave together from here the next day?¡± Zordan asked. ¡°I don¡¯t want anyone to know that Rose is my daughter in that pack,¡± Calvin said with a frown. ¡°Most importantly, I don¡¯t want that characterless woman to know about Rose being her daughter. By staying in touch with her, who knows, even my Rose will think of following her footsteps?¡± ¡°You do know that no one can hide the truth forever. Now that she is awake, one day or another day, she wille to know about it. On top, her younger sister being my mate, is not helping us at all. The moment Reva wille to our pack, she wille to know that Rose is my Alpha¡¯s daughter.¡± ¡°And Alpha, you should at least visit your son¡¯s grave once,¡± Lemieux suggested. ¡°I guess Rose would have told you about him,¡± he added, knowing that Roselet didn¡¯t have a habit of hiding anything from her father. Calvin became silent upon hearing this. He couldn¡¯t feel the pain of his son¡¯s loss immediately, maybe because he never knew his existence but now that he was thinking about that part. He could imagine a boy of Roselet¡¯s age ying with her. They would have shared their childhood together like just he did with his twin brother, Colton. If Roselet could think of visiting her mother after knowing about her, then why couldn¡¯t he? He should visit his son at least once. ¡°Okay!!¡± Calvin agreed. ¡°But don¡¯t tell my princess about it. I will surprise her,¡± he added. ¡°And Zordy, is your mate going toe with you? If yes, then you can tell me, and I can ask to arrange a wee party for her as female Beta,¡± Calvin asked. ¡°No, buddy. I don¡¯t want to rush even though my wolf wants to mark and mate with her immediately. It will be better if we give each other at least a week to get to know each other better. That¡¯s why, even if she apanies me, you don¡¯t have to give her the treatment of female Beta.¡± ¡°Urgh..¡± Roselet groaned in her sleep, getting disturbed by all this conversation when she was sleeping. ¡®Okay, bye!! Let my princess have her beauty sleep.¡¯ Calvin mind-linked Zordan before disconnecting the video call. ¡®I told Zordy that I wille, but I don¡¯t have a very good feeling about tomorrow night.¡¯ He thought but keeping that thought away, he smiled, imagining his love¡¯s reaction, which she would get finding him there. **** #TBC 34 Next day!!! ¡°A!! Thank you, thank you, thank you so much, Rose.¡± Reva thanked Roselet, giving her a twirl. ¡°You¡¯re the best.¡± Hearing it, Roselet giggled. ¡°I knew you would convince Zordan to stay here a day here more. From now onwards, I will ask your help every time Zordan won¡¯t listen to me.¡± She added. ¡°But I don¡¯t think that will always work,¡± Roselet replied with a smile. ¡°Still, what could go wrong in trying?¡± Reva asked, winking at her. ¡°I heard that,¡± Zordan said. ¡°Okay, now let me go. You both enjoy your time together.¡± Roselet said to go near Ethlyn. ¡°Where do you want to go?¡± Zordan asked. ¡°To mommy¡¯s home.¡± She replied and was quick to correct her answer when Reva¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°Her mommy¡¯s home.¡± She added, pointing toward her finger Reva. ¡°But dear, Mom and dad are busy decorating the home along with other people. What will you do after going there? They¡¯re no fun.¡± Reva said with a chuckle. ¡°Ethlyn?¡± Roselet asked about her mommy. ¡°She¡­ she is at the cemetery as usual,¡± Reva replied. ¡°But that area is dangerous. Lemi, let¡¯s go.¡± Roselet said in concern and quickly ran from there. Reva looked at her in surprise for a while before speaking. ¡°I don¡¯t understand why she is running after ady who was rude to her yesterday.¡± Saying this, Reva looked at Zordan. ¡°I know Rose is your niece, but my wolf feels a kind of bond with her as if she is closely rted to me.¡± ¡°She is so sweet that any wolf falls in love with her,¡± Zordan said with a small smile, not revealing the fact that Rose was her niece by blood. It wasn¡¯t that he wanted to hide anything from her, but it was her family that had hidden such big news from both sisters. ***** ¡°Why are you here again?¡± Ethlyn asked Roselet when she disturbed her ALONE space. She couldn¡¯t understand why this pup was so nosy. ¡°Why are you always so rude?¡± Roselet said, ignoring her re, and sat beside her brother¡¯s grave. ¡°Because I don¡¯t like nosy people.¡± Roselet stayed quiet before speaking, ¡°It hurts when you speak to me like that. But never mind, my uncle is also rude, but I know he loves me a lot.¡± She said, thinking about Colton. ¡°I¡¯m here to meet my big brother,¡± Roselet replied to the previous question of Ethlyn. They both stayed quiet for a while. Ethlyn didn¡¯t stop her from calling Christian as her big brother. ¡°How¡¯re you, brother? Oh, you¡¯re fine. I¡¯m good too. Thank you for asking.¡± Roselet talked with her brother as if he was talking with her from the other side. ¡°Are you having fun with Moon Goddess by staying near her?¡± ¡°What? No, you¡¯re not happy!! But why?¡± ¡°Oh, because mommy keeps crying for you, and you feel bad seeing her in tears,¡± Roselet spoke, on which Ethlyn started crying again. ¡°Oh, you have a job for me. And what is that?¡± ¡°I have to keep mommy happy and bring a smile to her face all the time.¡± Roselet kept speaking. ¡°Do you think this is funny?¡± Ethlyn questioned her. ¡°Momm¡­¡± ¡°I¡¯m not your damn mommy,¡± Ethlyn growled at her angrily, scaring her, because of which Roselet moved away from her in fear. ¡°Leave; I don¡¯t want you anywhere near me. You¡¯re pissing me off, pup. I want to stay alone with my son, not you. So, GOOOOO.¡± It took a few minutes for Roselet to ovee her fear. ¡°I won¡¯t go. Do whatever you want.¡± She said stubbornly. ¡°What the¡­¡± Ethlyn fumed in anger. ¡°What the¡­¡± Roselet mimicked her. Ethlyn looked around in search of the wolf that brought Roselet, but he was nowhere around. In that way, she couldn¡¯t even send Roselet from there. ¡°Searching for someone?¡± Roselet asked. ¡°Sadly, no one is here except us, Mommy.¡± She added with a smirk. ¡°Don¡¯t call me that.¡± ¡°Call you what? Mommmmmmyyyyyy?¡± The more Ethlyn stopped her; the more Roselet teased her. ¡°Moon Goddess!! I thought you were a well-behaved pup.¡± ¡°That I¡¯m,¡± Roselet said, bowing her head and pointing her hand toward herself. ¡°But that is for good people.¡± Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened at her words. ¡°And by spending time with you, I realized that you don¡¯t deserve my good side.¡± ¡°What?¡± ¡°Yes. The truth won¡¯t change that you¡¯re my mommy no matter how rude you behave, but if you can¡¯t behave well with me, then TIT for TAT.¡± Roselet said, and Ethlyn looked at her in disbelief. Roselet hugged her. ¡°I¡¯m sorry in advance, Mommy. I just want to spend some time with you, but you¡¯re pushing me and acting like a rude mother. But how is it possible that you love my brother so much and don¡¯t like me? Huh?¡± ¡°Or you will also love me only when I¡¯m gone like Christian?¡± She asked, breaking the hug. ¡°Shut up.!!¡± Ethlyn scolded. ¡°Don¡¯t speak nonsense. Let me take you to the guest house.¡± She said and started standing on her feet, but Roselet quickly sat in herp. ¡°I want to spend some time with you. I don¡¯t want to go anywhere else. Just you, me, and my big brother.¡± She said. ¡°Rose..¡± ¡°Mommmmyyyy, pleassseeee!!! I promise I won¡¯t disturb you and stay here silently.¡± Ethlyn sighed and made her sit in herp properly.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. . #TBC 35 Roselet grabbed both her hands and made them encircle her tiny waist. Then she leaned her back against Ethlyn¡¯s body. Ethlyn was surprised to see that Roselet was true to her words. She remained seated in thep without uttering anything while Ethlyn kept smelling her scent, especially the scent of her baby products, her hair, her hands, and her face; it smelt so amazing. * After an hour!! ¡°Let¡¯s go. You might be feeling hungry. It¡¯s time for lunch.¡± Ethlyn said, sensing her hunger. But she admired her words that, not once, Roselet opened her mouth to say about it. ¡°And yes, you can speak now.¡± ¡°Mommy, Where are we going then?¡± She asked on which Ethlyn red at her, narrowing her eyes, but Roselet shrugged it. ¡°How about you give me a tour of your pack?¡± ¡°What do you think I am? A guide?¡± Ethlyn asked. ¡°I¡¯m leaving tomorrow. Can¡¯t you give me a small tour of your pack? I promise I will give you the same treatment when you wille to my pack. Pleaseeee!! Pleaseeeee!! Pleaseeee!!!¡± She requested, hugging her tightly and rubbing her nose in Ethlyn¡¯s stomach, turning her head toward her. ¡°Fine! Fine! I will give a tour of the pack.¡± Ethlyn agreed because the word ¡®NO¡¯ disappeared from her dictionary in her cute way of requesting it. And it wasn¡¯t that she had some important work at home. ¡°Yayyyyy! Thank you, Mommy.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s start from the best restaurant of my pack. The food is great there.¡± Ethlyn said unwillingly. She didn¡¯t want to go anywhere because pack members still used to give stare as if she was some slut. ¡°I¡¯m famished already,¡± Roselet said, rubbing her stomach. Ethlyn smiled, and after a while, she started stripping in front of Roselet. Roselet held her clothes in her hand and waited for her mommy to shift. As expected, when they reached the restaurant, a lot of pack members present there started staring at Ethlyn, making her feel ufortable. She wanted to leave immediately and hide somewhere, but her n changed when Roselet held her hand. ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± She said, taking her inside it. ¡®Isn¡¯t she the Luna whom Alpha rejected?¡¯ ¡®Any mate would have rejected a mate like her.¡¯ ¡®I can¡¯t believe how she can stoop so low.¡¯ ¡®Who is the pup with her?¡¯ ¡®She doesn¡¯t belong to our pack.¡¯ ¡°Are you okay?¡± Roselet asked, seeing Ethlyn¡¯s disturbed face, who was busy hearing the words of the pack members. ¡°Hmm¡± Ethlyn nodded her head. Coincidentally, Roselet chose the same spot that Ethlyn used to choose whenever she used to visit this restaurant. Once they settled, Roselet picked up the menu card to check what she wanted to eat. ¡°What is the best food in this ce? Can you order for us?¡± She asked to keep Ethlyn busy as she was more busy looking around than focusing on her. ¡°Yeah! Sure. Do you have an allergy to anything?¡± Ethlyn asked before ordering. ¡°No.¡± ¡°Okay then, would you mind me ordering a Mozzare donut and Marinara sauce?¡± ¡°Nope.¡± Roselet shook her head. ¡°I love it, in fact. And along with that spam sandwich, crunchy chicken and waffles, ck bean cheese fire noodles, deep-fried cheese tower, and many more things are my favorites. I¡¯m not allergic to seafood, but I don¡¯t like it.¡± Roselet said on which Ethlyn looked at her in surprise because Roselet¡¯s taste was like hers. She ordered the food; whatever Roselet said was her favorite because it was her favorite too. She didn¡¯t remember when she enjoyed foodst time. Whenever her mind used to get diverted by other people¡¯s whispers and murmurs, Roselet used to do something because of which her attention returned back to her. Ethlyn did realize because of all this that what others were talking about her didn¡¯t affect her when she ignored it rather than listening to them. After lunch, Ethlyn took her to the highest mountain in that area, making sure that Roselet held her wolf¡¯s coat tightly because there was not some specific path in those areas. She mind-linked Reva about Roselet with her in case the Uncles of Roselet get worried for her. ¡°Your pack is so beautiful, Mommy. It is all surrounded by mountains, forests, and rivers, while Daddy¡¯s pack is just surrounded by forest.¡± Roselet said, on which Ethlyn smiled. Roselet gave her phone to Ethlyn and asked her to click pictures of her. ¡°Whose phone is this?¡± Ethlyn asked, looking at the brand-new Iphone14. ¡°Daddy gave it to me to use while I¡¯m here. So, I can¡¯t say that it¡¯s mine.¡± Roselet responded and closed her eyes; she opened her hand. Ethlyn clicked her photos and made videos of her when she danced and started singing. *Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°One day, my father, he told me, ¡°Son, don¡¯t let it slip away¡± He took me in his arms, I heard him say ¡°When you get older your wild heart will live for younger days Think of me if ever you¡¯re afraid¡± He said, ¡°One day, you¡¯ll leave this world behind So live a life you will remember¡± My father told me when I was just a child ¡°These are the nights that never die¡± My father told me * ¡°Come on, Mommy, sing with me.

And finally, it worked when Ethlyn joined her. * #TBC 36 ¡°He said, ¡°One day, you¡¯ll leave this world behind So live a life you will remember¡± My father told me when I was just a child ¡°These are the nights that never die¡± My father told me ¡°These are the nights that never die¡± My father told me My father told me * By evening, Ethlyn kicked the wall that she was trying to keep between her and Roselet and enjoyed her time with Roselet to the fullest, trying to do everything that she would have done with her pup after she woke up from aa if he would have been alive. She thought that Roselet was seeing her mommy in her because her mommy was never for her. That was why she did the same after learning this trick with her. At the same time, Cinder wanted to keep Roselet near her forever as her pup because she didn¡¯t like the fact that Roselet was returning back to her pack tomorrow. ¡°Is it important to leave tomorrow?¡± Cinder asked her, taking control of her human body. ¡°You don¡¯t want me to go, Cinder Mommy?¡± Roselet asked with a smile. ¡°No.¡± ¡°Thene with me to my daddy¡¯s pack and marry my daddy.¡± Roselet offered, on which she chuckled, pinching her cheek. ¡°This was your n from the beginning, wasn¡¯t it?¡± She asked to which Roselet nodded her head. ¡°Sweetheart, my mate is Nathan. I can¡¯t marry your daddy.¡± ¡°But Reva told me that you both rejected each other already. So, in that way, you can marry my daddy.¡± Roselet said, recalling a way of changing the mate and another one was by marking. ¡°Rose¡­. Please end this topic,¡± Cinder told her strictly, on which she pouted, losing her little hope. ¡°Mommy, daddy is an amazing person. If you will spend some time with him, then¡­.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s return back to the pack. We have to attend a function at my home as well.¡± Cinder said, changing the topic. Thest thing she wanted was to scold Roselet for her innocence. ¡°Umm.. okay!!¡± ***** ¡°Someone enjoyed her whole day with her mommy.¡± Zordan teased Roselet when she walked into the guest house. ¡°So, how was it? Did you enjoy spending time with her?¡± ¡°Yes, Zordy. I had a lot of fun with her.¡± ¡°More than Daddy?¡± Zordan asked yfully, but he really wanted to know the answer to this question because he didn¡¯t want her to choose Ethlyn over Calvin. ¡°Nope. Daddy is the best.¡± Roselet replied with a smile first, but immediately she became sad. ¡°I wish he was here. I miss him.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sure he misses you too,¡± Zordan said, not revealing to her the fact that Calvin was going to attend the party. Zordan checked the time and shook his head. ¡®It looks like he is runningte as usual.¡¯ He thought and knew that, as usual, his Alpha was going to make ate entry. After an hour, Zordan arrived at Ethlyn¡¯s house with his friends and Roselet and wasn¡¯t surprised to see that there were a lot of people rather than just family members, rtives, and friends. ¡°Is Reva going to ask you to mark her in front of the whole pack?¡± Damian asked. ¡°I don¡¯t think so. We spent time together by evening, and we never came to this point till then.¡± Zordan replied. ¡°Maybe she wanted to surprise you,¡± Asher suggested. ¡°Hey, everyone!!¡± Reva reached near them and hugged her mate, kissing his cheek. ¡°You look handsome.¡± ¡°You look breathtaking as well.¡± Zordanplimented her. ¡°You look like a princess, Rose.¡± ¡°Thank you, Reva.¡± Roselet responded before continuing, ¡°And you look hot and sexy.¡± Reva giggled at her words, ¡°Thank you for thepliment, dear.¡± ¡°Reva, you told me that it¡¯s a small function, but my wolf can sense that all the important people of the pack are here,¡± Zordan said, looking around. ¡°Actually, we were the star of the show tonight, but now Ethlyn and Nathan are the stars of the show. They are going to ept each other as mates and are going to get engaged as well.¡± She replied, and after hearing this, Roselet¡¯s face color paled. She ran out of the house, and Lemieux followed her to check on her. ¡°What happened? Why did Rose be so sad after learning this?¡± Reva asked, looking at Zordan. ¡°I¡¯m not sure. Maybe because we aren¡¯t the star of the function, that¡¯s why, or maybe because of some other reason.¡± Zordan chuckled. ¡°Oh!! Are you feeling sad too?¡± Reva asked him.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°No. I¡¯m not a baby.¡± Zordan said normally. ¡°But why didn¡¯t you tell me about it before?¡± ¡°Actually, I myself didn¡¯t know about it. When I reached here after spending the whole day with you, mom was crying, thinking about Ethlyn¡¯s future.¡± Zordan furrowed his eyebrow, listening to this. Both his wolf and he knew that her mother, Abigail Smith, was the biggest viin in Ethlyn¡¯s life. ¡°Mom wanted Ethlyn to settle with Nathan again, but Ethlyn was confused about it. That¡¯s why Mom asked my help, and when Ethlyn returned, I told her that if she didn¡¯t ept Nathan as her mate again tonight, I would reject you in front of the whole pack, and Ethlyn unwillingly agreed.¡± Zordan¡¯s jaw clenched hearing this, and he pushed Reva away from him. ¡°Zordan, I wasn¡¯t going to reject you. Even if I would have you, I wouldn¡¯t have done it in front of everyone to insult you. I just said so to ckmail Ethlyn.¡± ¡°I can¡¯t believe you, Reva,¡± Zordan muttered, shaking his head. ¡°You ckmailed your sister to make her do anything that she didn¡¯t want to,¡± he stated in disbelief. . #TBC 37 ¡°Mom said that Ethlyn has her whole life in front of her, and she, too, needs someone to cherish and love her. So, if Ethlyn couldn¡¯t make the decision to give Nathan a second chance on her own, then she would force her to do this. And One day, Ethlyn would thank mom and me for what we did today for her. After all, parents don¡¯t think wrong about their pup, do they?¡± Zordan looked at his mate for a good one-two minute, wondering whether his mate was an idiot or naive. Of course, parents sometimes make decisions on behalf of their children; for example, Uncle Brandon was forced to marry Aunt Sophia, and it came out to be the best decision of their life, but for some reason, he just couldn¡¯t digest the fact that Ethlyn was getting engaged to the man again, who didn¡¯t trust her and kick her out of the pack when she needed him the most. Not just that, hell, Nathan hadn¡¯t even apologized to Ethlyn for whatever he did, or did he? ¡°Does Nathan apologize to Ethlyn for whatever he did in the past?¡± Zordan asked. ¡°No. But he was genuinely guilty for what he did.¡± Reva responded. Her answer didn¡¯t satisfy Zordan, but he didn¡¯t say anything to her. ¡°Are you still mad at me?¡± Zordan sighed before replying, ¡°I won¡¯t lie, and the truth is that I don¡¯t like your involvement in ckmailing your sister.¡± he knew that his mate wasn¡¯t bad, but she was just under the bad influence of her mother. ¡°From now onwards, do listen to your mother¡¯s words but at least discuss with me as well. In that way, things will be clear between us, okay?¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Reva agreed and hugged him happily. When she broke the hug, she saw Roselet in Lemieux¡¯s arms, and they wereing inside again. ¡°Your princess is here.¡± ¡°Zordy, I want to go return back to our pack,¡± Roselet said with a long face. ¡°Really, Rose? You want Zordan to leave me alone in the middle of the party?¡± Reva asked to change her mood. ¡°Come with me; I will give you the tour of my home. And do you know I have a lot of chocte with me?¡± She added. Roselet wanted to reject that offer and ask Zordan to leave, but at the same time, she didn¡¯t want to sound mean. Didn¡¯t she want to help Reva by convincing Calvin to let everyone stay for a day more? Thinking all this, Roselet unwillingly agreed to go with Reva. After half an hour, Zordan checked the time again, waiting for Calvin, but he hadn¡¯t reached here until now. ¡®Only Moon Goddess knows when he is going to make entry.¡¯ He thought, and his mind was barely on Alpha Nathan and Ethlyn, who had finally arrived. Receiving a signal from Abigail, Reva left from there to get the rings that Nathan and Ethlyn had exchanged when Nathan marked Ethlyn for the first time, which had been sent for polishing and cleaning. The same rings that Nathan asked her to return before kicking her out. Ethlyn wanted to cut her fingers before wearing the same ring again. For others, it might be a moment to celebrate, but she was feeling like she was getting insulted again.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°Mom, dad!! The rings are not at their ce.¡± Reva informed aftering out of the room in tension. ¡°What? How is that possible?¡± Abigail asked in shock and went into the room where the rings were kept to search again. Everyone started whispering and talking about it. ¡®Maybe it¡¯s a sign that they shouldn¡¯t get together again.¡¯ ¡®Maybe Moon Goddess wants the same.¡¯ ¡®But this is not Moon Goddess¡¯s work, but anyone of us has done this.¡¯ ¡®But who will think of stealing the ring? & Why?¡¯ These were the things about which everyone was talking about when Abigail walked out of the room angrily and reached near Zordan as if he was the thief. But instead of saying anything to him, she grabbed Roselet¡¯s arm and asked, ¡°You stole the rings, didn¡¯t you?¡± ¡°Aahh!!¡± Roselet cried in pain. Zordan growled and pulled Roselet toward him, but he failed to pull her because Abigail¡¯s grip on Roselet¡¯s arms was way too tight, and Zordan just couldn¡¯t use that strength on Roselet because she was a pup, not a thing. ¡°Leave her arms, Mrs. Smith. You can treat her like that.¡± He growled again while Lemieux was ready to punch her when Christian pulled Abigail away from Roselet. Lemieux stood in front of Roselet, and Zordan crouched to hug her. ¡°I can¡¯t treat her like that? This is how a thief is treated.¡± Abigail growled at Roselet. ¡°Ask her that didn¡¯t she steal the rings when Reva gave her a tour of the house. Ask her. Because no one went in that particr room except Reva and this little thief.¡± ¡°There is no way Rose can steal anything, Mrs. Smith.¡± Damian defended his princess while Zordan wiped the tears of Roselet and asked. ¡°Rose, sweetheart!! Just tell everyone the truth that you don¡¯t have to do anything with all these things.¡± Zordan said and then red at Abigail, ¡°Then I will deal with her for hurting you.¡± ¡°Zor¡­zordy!!¡± Roselet sobbed. ¡°I.. I didn¡¯t steal.. steal the rings.¡± ¡°Did you hear her?¡± Zordan growled at Abigail. ¡°I¡­I just hi.. hide them.¡± Roseletpleted the sentence, shocking everyone. ¡°Did you hear her now, huh?¡± Abigail asked, taunting Zordan. ¡°And ¡®hide them?¡¯ Really you little thief. You had the intention to steal it, but when you realized that you might get caught, then you are trying to fool us by swiping the word by hiding instead of stealing.¡± Roselet shook her head and tried to speak between her cries but failed miserably. ¡°Mom, instead of ming her. At least hear her out.¡± Ethlyn spoke when she saw how history was repeating itself. Last time, it was her who didn¡¯t get a chance to speak, and this time, it looked like Roselet wanted to speak, but she wasn¡¯t able to because of her cries.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t go on her innocent face, Ethlyn. You were right yesterday; she is indeed a thief.¡± ¡°HOW DARE YOU?¡± A loud and furious growl roared in the entire house by a very pissed Alpha. . #TBC . A/N: Tada!! Finally, this was the chapter for which I was waiting to write. Compared to my thought, I could only write up to 80% of what I had thought exactly. But never mind, it is also good. Hehe:) I¡¯m praising myself because you don¡¯t. That¡¯s why do drop your reviews and gems on the story. 38 Roselet didn¡¯t want this engagement to happen, nor she wanted her mommy to ept Alpha Nathan as her mate again, but she had no idea what she should do at thest moment to stop this. The previous conversation with Ethlyn about marrying her daddy didn¡¯t go well. When Reva was giving the tour of the house and showed the rings to her to change her mood. An idea came to her mind. ¡®How about if I would hide these rings? Then this engagement couldn¡¯t happen, right?¡¯ With this thought, she grabbed both the rings diverting Reva¡¯s attention and hid them in another room; when Reva gave her a tour of other rooms of her house. Little did she know that this work of hers was going to get her into big trouble. She had just thought that everyone would spend their time in search of the rings but never did the ideae across her mind that she would be caught that easily because she didn¡¯t know that no one went in that room except Reva and her. And thest thing was whenever she used to make any mistakes or any naughty things; her daddy used to ask her calmly and talk about it. Never did he start ming or scolding or started hitting her. She got scared when Abigail grabbed her arms in anger tightly and started shouting at her. She tried to remove her grip from her arms, but it was too powerful for her, and the worst was she felt Abigail digging her nails into her flesh. All these things that happened scared her to the extent that she couldn¡¯t stop her tears. She was surrounded by so many people, but all she wanted was her daddy. More tears flowed out of her eyes when she was called a thief. She wanted to shout that ¡®she wasn¡¯t a thief.¡¯ While Zordan and his friends were taken aback when Roselet admitted that she hid the rings, obviously, they knew that their princess couldn¡¯t steal rings. Hell, all Roselet used to steal was choctes and sweet things when Calvin used to forbid her from eating a lot of sweets. All they were waiting for her to speak more and state the reason for doing so, In that way, Roselet coulde out of this allegation clean, but she was crying badly. No one had an idea that what was going on in her little mind. Zordan somehow assumed that Roselet didn¡¯t want this engagement to happen as she wasn¡¯t happy with this news from the beginning but why? And that was when his wolf sensed his Alpha. ¡®Oh no!! Alpha will be so pissed.¡¯ He thought and tried to calm down Roselet, but it wasn¡¯t working. In the Next moment, the face of the other four paled as well when they sensed Calvin. They then looked toward Nathan, who looked lost, which was an indication that he was mind-linking. It meant even he knew that their Alpha was here. On the other side, Calvin was excited to meet his love. It had been more than forty-eight hours without watching her for real. He didn¡¯t want to miss her smile and the twinkle in her eyes after finding him at the party. When he reached the pack, John, the Beta of the pack, escorted him to the guest house because Calvin had reached his wolf form with a bag between his teeth, and he just couldn¡¯t reach any function naked. He quickly got ready and asked John to take him to the venue. There was a time when he used to take hours to get ready like a girl, but Roselet¡¯s presence taught him to get ready in a few minutes orplete his personal business in a few minutes because when she was young, whenever Calvin used to enter in the washroom after leaving Roselet sleeping on the bed. She used to wake quickly and start crying, not even letting Calvin wipe his bum peacefully. He used toe running out of the washroom to make her sleep again. And this incident used to happen on a regr basis. All of a sudden, Calvin¡¯s ear rose when he heard Roselet¡¯s cries. All his excitement disappeared from his face, and he started running instead of walking, shocking Beta John as well, who quickly informed Alpha Nathan about it so that Nathan would have an idea that another Alpha was approaching, running like a maniac.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. ¡®Don¡¯t go on her innocent face, Ethlyn. You were right yesterday; she is indeed a thief.¡¯ He heard a woman, whom he recognized as Ethlyn¡¯s mother because of uncanny simrities between them, speaking, and then he saw that she was calling his love a thief while Roselet was crying bitterly. ¡°HOW DARE YOU?¡± Calvin roared in anger. He was damn so furious that moment no one could stop him from killing Abigail. He ran toward her and jumped on her, shifting into a wolf; Zordan and Nathan were quick to act, realizing what was going to happen next. They shifted quickly; while Nathan covered Abigail, Zordan jumped on Calvin, taking the first hit by Calvin¡¯s wolf paw on him. Both Zordan and Calvin both fall on the floor and start growling each there. ¡®Why did youe in between?¡¯ ¡®Alpha, you just can kill anyone in front of Rose. She is too young to see any murder.¡¯ Zordan tried to calm him down, but he knew that it wasn¡¯t Calvin who was speaking but Roselet¡¯s daddy wolf. ¡®That witch called my pup a thief. I won¡¯t leave her alive.¡¯ Keanu growled in anger. Everyone screamed and ran away from there, not wanting to be the food of the red werewolf which Calvin was. It was said that red werewolves weren¡¯t someone with whom one should mess because they were short-tempered among all the werewolves, and the angrier they get, the more powerful they be. Keanu tried to attack Abigail again, but Zordan took the attack on himself again. ¡®Leave my way, Max.¡¯ He ordered, using his Alpha tone, which was hard for Zordan¡¯s wolf to disobey. ¡°Rose, only you can calm down the Alpha,¡± Lemieux said to Roselet when he sensed Calvin release his Alpha Aura. Keanu was not ready to calm down or listen to anyone until Roselet came running close to him and hugged his forepaw before he would have used it to attack Zordan again for disobeying him and not leaving the path that was leading him to Abigail. . #TBC 39 Ethlyn knew that her mother had crossed her limit by calling Roselet a thief without even hearing her side, but she didn¡¯t expect HIM to see her again. The same shameless Alpha. What shocked her the more was when she realized that he was the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack. * ¡°Leave my wrist.¡± ¡°Why? I thought you were enjoying touching me. I don¡¯t mind sleeping with you. Trust me; I¡¯m too good in bed.¡± ¡°I will like to burn in the fire of hell instead of sleeping with you.¡± * She sneered at the thought that she indeed slept with that shameless werewolf. ¡®Did.. did whatever happened with me was his n? His n to take revenge on me?¡¯ She wondered. But at the same time, she didn¡¯t miss how pissed his wolf was at the insult of a pup from his pack. She didn¡¯t expect this shameless werewolf to get this pissed. Hell, he wasn¡¯t even angry at her for pping him publicly and kept grinning. But he was ready to kill Beta if he would have to, but he wouldn¡¯t leave her mother in one piece. She gasped when she saw Roselet running toward her and hugging his forepaw when he was about to attack his Beta again. Keanu growled at Roselet so that she would leave his paw. He couldn¡¯t even mind link her, so he didn¡¯t have any other choice than ring at her, but Roselet didn¡¯t move an inch. In the end, he had to shift back to human form to scold her. After shifting back, he opened his mouth to scold her, but he couldn¡¯t say a word, seeing Roselet¡¯s red eyes. He just picked her in his arms, hugging her tightly, and the moment, Roselet went into his arms, she started crying again, but this time she wasn¡¯t scared because she knew her daddy would bite everyone who would raise their tone on her. Calvin caressed her back and red at Abigail, who was trying to hide behind her mate, Christian. Zordon, too, shifted back to his human, and Reva quickly reached near him because he was injured a little.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°Alpha Calvin, please calm down. I can understand that you¡¯re pissed because my pack member behaved rudely with the pup of your pack, but there is a reason behind it.¡± Nathan spoke calmly, trying not to pick any fight with him. Everyone knew that the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack was like a cousin to Werewolf King, Steve Cornell Weasley. They might didn¡¯t know the name or face of the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack, but this information was enough to remind them not to mess with Calvin until he was wrong. ¡°It¡¯s my engagement today with my mate, but our rings went missing, and Rose epted stea¡­ I mean hiding it with her own mouth. That¡¯s why Abigail Smith, mother of my mate, lost her control over her anger, and she acted rude to Rose.¡± he said. ¡°I¡¯m sorry on her behalf.¡± he apologized and stepped away from Abigail. At the same time, he mind-linked all the pack members to leave because it looked like the engagement party had been kept on hold. ¡°I can also say SORRY after tearing her body into parts. Will you ept that?¡± Calvin asked Sarcasteldly. ¡°Mind your tone, Alpha,¡± Ethlyn growled. ¡°Why? Did your mother mind her tone while talking with a pup?¡± Calvin questioned her, shutting her mouth. ¡°If you all wouldn¡¯t have been saving this witch, then¡­.¡± Calvin tried to attack Abigail again but this time in his human form, holding Roselet in his other arms. ¡°¡­. I would have killed her now and here.¡± ¡°Dare you.¡± Ethlyn stepped in between her mother and him, blocking his attack. ¡°Instead of getting angry at my mother, why don¡¯t you ask this pup the because behind such behavior.¡± She asked. She did not want to support what her mother did, but at the same time, she wouldn¡¯t stand someone else attacking her. ¡°And who knows what my mother could be, right? I saw a brand new Iphone14 with her, which can¡¯t be afforded by any omega¡¯s pup. She might have intension to stole¡­.¡± ¡®SLAPPPPP¡¯ Ethlyn fell on the floor before she could evenplete the sentence. ¡°Mommy,¡± Roselet got scared, seeing her daddy pping her mommy. Roselet quickly wanted to check on Ethlyn by leaving Calvin¡¯s side, wigging in his arms. ¡°Ethlyn!! Ethlyn!! Princess!! Ethlyn¡±, Nathan, Reva, Abigail, and Saisha, Nathan¡¯s mother, gasped, reaching her. A tight p from an Alpha would have been powerful and painful for a wolf of lower rank. ¡°Alpha Calvin. Now you¡¯re crossing the limits.¡± Nathan spoke. ¡°Ethlyn didn¡¯t speak anything wrong. She just said what had happened. It can be possible that Rose can be lying about the rings.¡± he suggested calmly, wondering why Alpha Calvin was so protective toward the pup. Calvin had hit Ethlyn so hard that blood had started oozing from her mouth. She coughed, and teeth fell from her mouth. ¡°Lemi, take Rose out.¡± Saying this, he handover Roselet into her bodyguard¡¯s arms. ¡°Calvin! Calvin! Let me stay.¡± Roselet spoke, wiggling in Lemieux¡¯s arms. ¡°It¡¯s my mistake. I shouldn¡¯t have hidden the rings.¡± But Calvin ignored her and crouched to tell Ethlyn the biggest truth of her life. ¡°Dadddddyyy, please!! Please don¡¯t hurt Mommyyy!! Pleaseeeee!!¡± Roselet cried, making everyone shocked. A minute ago, she was calling Calvin by his name and now ¡®daddy.¡¯ Did she have a habit of calling anyone as her ¡®Mommy¡¯ and ¡®Daddy¡¯? ¡°As a father, I don¡¯t think I¡¯m crossing my limits, Alpha Nathan,¡± Calvin responded while his eyes were on Ethlyn, who was holding her cheek and was trying to ovee the incident that just happened to her. . #TBC . A/N: A lot of readers are interested in reading Colton¡¯s story. Sometimes they also ask if I have already written about him or not. The answer is NO. Neither have I written his story nor thought about it. His story will be, atst. Maybe I will start writing it in Feb 2023. 40 ¡°So, you¡¯re really Rose¡¯s father?¡± Reva asked to clear her confusion. ¡°Yes. Her name is Roselet Sophia Haysbert, daughter of Calvin Logan Haysbert.¡± Calvin cleared her doubt. ¡°Then why did she call Ethlyn as ¡®Mommy¡¯?¡± Reva asked again. ¡°Isn¡¯t it obvious, Reva?¡± Zordan replied, pulling the floor under Ethlyn¡¯s feet. ¡°That¡¯s not true. My pup died years back, and my parents didn¡¯t lie about that.¡± Ethlyn defended her parents, not agreeing with what Zordan said. Calvin chuckled, shaking his head. ¡°Really? So, much trust in that parent who got rid of Rose when you were in a Coma.¡± he taunted. ¡°Anyway, keep thinking that way. I don¡¯t want to break the perfect image of your parents in your mind,¡± he added and stood up on his feet. ¡°I apologize on behalf of my Princess, Alpha Nathan. She shouldn¡¯t have hidden the rings and ruined your evening.¡± Calvin said. ¡°But please forgive her thinking of her as a pup. I don¡¯t know what she was thinking then.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay, Alpha Calvin,¡± Nathan said. Well, what else could he say at that moment rather than epting his apology? He observed Calvin mind linking someone, and after a while, he spoke. ¡°Rose said to Lemi that she hid the rings in the bedroom of Mr. and Mrs. Smith under the pillow. Can you please check?¡± Calvin asked so that he could bring his love from this allegation. Reva left from there to check the rings that Roselet informed, and she found both rings over there. ¡°I¡¯m sorry again for all the mess again. After visiting the cemetery of your pack and meeting my other pup, who is not between me. We all will be leaving tonight now.¡± Hearing this, Reva looked at Zordan in concern. She didn¡¯t want him to leave. ¡°You can stay here tonig¡­.¡± Nathan tried to ¡°I can¡¯t stay here an hour more. So, please don¡¯t ask me to stay.¡± Saying this, Calvin walked out of there, not even looking at Ethlyn, who was in a dilemma as a lot of things were going on in her mind. ¡°Ethlyn!! Come on, Princess! Let¡¯s resume the engagement.¡± Abigail said, to which Ethlyn just looked at her without saying anything. No, Abigail didn¡¯t suggest taking her to the hospital because, by that time, her wolf had already healed her mouth injury, but she couldn¡¯t fix the canine teeth that came out of her mouth. ¡°Ethlyn!! Why are you looking at me like this, Princess?¡± ¡°Did I give birth to twins, Mom?¡± ¡°Seriously, are you believing that womanizer¡¯s words? Who is naming his pup with someone else as yours!!! If that pup would have been yours, then wouldn¡¯t she be smelling like you, huh?¡± ¡°Yes!! You gave birth to twins, Ethlyn.¡± Christian finally decided to tell her the truth that she deserved. ¡°Your firstborn pup was Christian, who is not between, and your other pup was a girl. And she is none other than Rose.¡± Her father added and then started narrating everything from the beginning to till now. Ethlyn stood up on her feet while hearing this. She recalled how Roselet had called her ¡®Mommy¡¯ when she caught her. That was because she was indeed her mommy. ¡°What rubbish, Christ? Why are you filling nonsense in our daughter¡¯s mind?¡± Abigail scolded her mate for telling the whole truth to Ethlyn. ¡°Ethlyn, listen to me, princess¡­.¡± She held Ethlyn¡¯s shoulder to talk with her. But Ethlyn jerked her hand away and pped her as tightly as she could. SLAAPPPPP!!! Reva gasped, jumping a little back, feeling scared and shocked at what had just happened. ¡°My¡­ my princess pped me?¡± Abigail stated, more like she asked in shock. ¡°My princess?¡± ¡°No.¡± Ethlyn shook her head. ¡°You were pped by that mother whose daughter was separated from her just because you wanted to get rid of her. You were pped by that mother to whom you lied about her daughter¡¯s death.¡± Ethlyn raised her hand again; Abigail shut her eyes in fear of getting pped by her own daughter again, but pushing her away, Ethlyn punched her fist into the wall behind her. She started punching her hand on the wall repeatedly. ¡°Ethlyn!!¡± She slowed her hand not to disturb her. ¡°Cinder, don¡¯t heal this injury,¡± Ethlyn said and kept hitting her hand on the wall until Abigail came in front of the wall. ¡°If you¡¯re mad at me, then hit me. Don¡¯t hurt yourself, Princess.¡± She said, holding Ethlyn¡¯s hand. ¡°I¡¯m not mad at you, Mom. I¡¯m mad at the daughter who raised her hand on her mother.¡± Ethlyn said, and a lone tear escaped from her eyes. ¡°Ethlyn..¡± Abigail whispered, seeing Ethlyn in so much pain. Ethlyn¡¯s tight p was ringing in her ear. She was not mad at her for pping her, but she wasn¡¯t able to measure the limit that she crossed, because of which her daughter had to raise her hand at her mother. Ethlyn snatched her hand from her grip and was about to walk out when her eyesnded on Nathan. She reached near him and spoke. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Nathan. I don¡¯t want you in my life again.¡± She spoke and then looked at her Ex-mother inw. ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± She started, leaving from there when she heard Saisha¡¯s words. ¡°You¡¯re leaving my son for that Alpha.¡± Ethlyn turned her head before replying. ¡°No, Aunt Saisha. Your son had asked me to go near the father of my pup back then.¡± She turned around and started leaving again. ¡°Ethl¡­¡±, Saisha was about to stop her again when Nathan held her wrist. . #TBCAll content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. 41 ¡°Don¡¯t stop her, Mom. She came to know about her pup after all these years. Don¡¯t try toe between them. And she did say it right, I was the one who asked her to leave back then.¡± he added and then looked at Abigail. ¡°I can¡¯t believe it, Aunt Abby. How could you hate that innocent pup for no reason? You do know that how much you haveplicated Ethlyn¡¯s life?¡± ¡°They both lied to every one of us, Nathan,¡± Reva said, feeling disgusted with her parent¡¯s deed. ¡°And by seeing Alpha Calvin¡¯s anger and hatred, I don¡¯t think he will allow Ethlyn anywhere near Rose.¡± She added. ¡°Moon Goddess!! I just hope my mate won¡¯t reject me because of all this drama.¡± She talked to herself and left from there to check on Zordan. **** ¡°Lemi¡­¡± Roselet tried to convince him to take her back to her mommy¡¯s house, but Lemieux red at her. ¡°It¡¯s a big NO, princess.¡±Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°You are calling me princess and not listening to your princess¡¯s request.¡± Roselet pouted, melting his heart, but he continued to maintain a fake re. ¡°Because my boss, AKA your daddy, is the king of the kingdom. I don¡¯t want to get kicked off my job.¡± He responded sternly, crossing his hands around his chest. ¡°Wait and watch. I willin about you to Uncle Colton.¡± Roselet said, pointing her finger toward him. Hearing Colton Haysbert¡¯s name, Lemieux¡¯s blood ran cold for a few seconds. That human was a killer in a suit. Not everyone got a chance to see him, but he wasn¡¯t that lucky because he was Roselet¡¯s bodyguard, and Colton liked spending time with pups, and even with a serious expression, all his nieces and nephew loved him. ¡°Sure, go ahead. I will also tell him that what you did tonight.¡± Hearing it, Roselet quickly shut her mouth. ¡°I won¡¯t ask the reason why you did do that because you have to answer your daddy that question.¡± ¡°Lemi..¡± She was about to tell him the reason when she saw him mind-linking, so she stopped and waited for a while. ¡°Change your dress and wear your tie-dye sweatshirt set that you have brought,¡± Lemieux said and started leaving the room so that she could change her clothes. ¡°Who was on the other side, Lemi? And why do I have to wear tie dye sweatshirt set? That¡¯s not what I wear at night.¡± Roselet asked, standing on the bed. ¡°It was Beta Zordan, and Alpha said that we are leaving tonight,¡± Lemieux replied and left the room. Roselet wanted to throw a tantrum and didn¡¯t want to leave this pack, but she didn¡¯t want to upset Calvin by doing this. So, she left the bag and took out her clothes to change from the luggage. After a while, she heard a knock at the door!! ¡°Rose, Did you change your clothes?¡± Roselet heard Calvin¡¯s voice. ¡°Yes, daddy.¡± Calvin walked in and saw Roselet, who was standing near the bed, looking at the floor as if there was some mystery on the floor. In reality, she was guilty of what she did. She was feeling that because of her, Ethlyn was pped by her daddy in anger. She was waiting for Calvin to scold her, and just the mere thought of him scolding her brought tears to her eyes. She quickly wiped it. Calvin wanted to scold her, too, but again no words came out of his mouth. He reached near her and sat on the bed, pulling her in hisp to hug her. ¡°Ssshhh¡­ stop crying!!¡± He said, caressing her hair. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, daddy.¡± ¡°Hmm.¡± Calvin kissed her hair. ¡°Why did you do that, Rose? What were you thinking?¡± He asked. Even though he knew the answer to this question already but he still wanted to hear the truth from her mouth. ¡°You will get mad after hearing my answer.¡± ¡°Trust me, love. I¡¯m already fuming in anger. If you would have been a little older, like Artin¡¯s age (Her cousin, who is ten years old), then you would have received a p from me for sure.¡± Calvin growled in a low tone. Rose looked up into his eyes and quickly looked down, ying with her fingers in herp. ¡°I didn¡¯t want mommy to ept Alpha Nathan as her mate, but I wanted you two to marry each other.¡± She whispered in a low tone on which Calvin growled at her again but this time a little louder. She quickly hid her face in his chest, hugging him tightly. ¡°Didn¡¯t I tell you that you can only have daddy in your life?¡± Calvin asked and pulled her away from him, holding her shoulders so that she could look straight into his eyes while answering. And also, this cute gesture of Roselet was stopping him from speaking strictly with her. He was not able to focus on his anger. Instead, he wanted to hug her more tightly. Roselet nodded her head. ¡°I want an answer in words, Roselet Sophia Haysbert.¡± ¡°Yes, daddy.¡± ¡°Then why did you still hide the rings?¡± He asked. Roselet stayed quiet for a minute before answering him, ¡°Because I want both my real mommy and daddy.¡± ¡°Why? Am I not enough for you?¡± Calvin questioned. ¡°And didn¡¯t we discuss earlier not to start dreaming of seeing your mommy and together because that won¡¯t happen?¡± ¡°But at that moment, you also told me that Mommy is marked by someone else, but there is no mark on the shoulder. It means that you both are single.¡± Roselet responded, shutting his mouth. ¡°Am I not enough for you, Rose?¡± Calvin asked again. * #TBC * A/N: Dear Readers, Ethlyn is the mother of Calvin¡¯s pup, not his mate. By the way, what kind of story do you want for Colton? Because I can see the hopes for his story is so high that I¡¯m worried whether I would be able to touch the benchmark or not. 42 ¡°You¡¯re, daddy. In fact, you¡¯re the best.¡± Roselet answered without waiting for a second.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Then why do you need Mommy?¡± ¡°For you.¡± ¡°Are you being serious? I already have a mom.¡± ¡°But Grandma Sophia is busy looking after Grandpa Brandon. I want someone to look after you and cook tasty food for you, which I can¡¯t. Also, I will leave you after finding my mate. So, she will stay by your side even when I won¡¯t be there for you.¡± Roselet tried to give reasons. ¡°Ouuuchhh!!! Calvin.¡± She cried when Calvin pinched her stomach. ¡°You can¡¯t convince me, Rose. I have passed your age twenty-seven years ago. I know what you are trying to do. Hit two birds with one stone. But for your kind information, whatever loves does for dad or dad does for mom is because of love, not because they have five children together.¡± Calvin said. ¡°And if you¡¯re so much interested in getting me a mommy except Mom, then did you forget the first rule of the requirement?¡± Roselet pouted and nodded her head. She wanted someone to love and take care of her daddy just like her daddy loved her. ¡®I can¡¯t be selfish. Mommy must love daddy, and daddy should also love Mommy. But how will they fall in love with each other?¡¯ ¡°Come on, now!! I will tie your hair.¡± Calvin said when he saw Roselet not asking him anything. ¡°What kind of braid do you want?¡± He asked her. ¡°Anything at the front with a high ponytail,¡± Roselet responded, to which Calvin nodded his head and made her seat on the bed to grab theb, her matching hair clips, and Rubber Hair Bands. Once upon a time, it was the toughest work for him. He kept Roselet¡¯s hairstyle as a boy cut till three and was nning to keep it for longer, but when Roselet started observing the long hair of girls of her age. She demanded the same for her, and not just that, she wanted different types of braids on her hair with multi-color hairclips when her hair grew longer. At present, her hairs were a little below her shoulder. It took Calvin just a couple of minutes to finally tie her hair like an expert. ¡°Perfect now,¡± Calvin said, kissing her hair. ¡°Let¡¯s pack your bag, and then we are leaving.¡± He added. ¡°Daddy, Mom¡­¡± ¡°Enough, Rose. I don¡¯t want to wear anything about her. I heard Abigail Smith saying that ¡®don¡¯t go on her innocent face, Ethlyn. You were right about her yesterday; she is indeed a thief.¡¯ It means she called you a thief yesterday, didn¡¯t she?¡± Calvin asked angrily, folding Roselet¡¯s clothes to pack them. ¡°It was my mistake. I was roaming in her house, so¡­.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t try to protect her, Rose,¡± Calvin growled at her. ¡°I can¡¯t forgive anyone calling my princess a thief.¡± ¡°But you pped her.¡± ¡°Thank me that I didn¡¯t break her jaw. How dare she!! And if your Uncle Colton would have been at my ce, then he would have cut her neck then and there. So, I did nothingpared to him. Now, change the topic.¡± At the same time, someone rang the doorbell. ****** ¡°What did you just say?¡± ¡°Mommy?¡± ¡°Listen, pup; I¡¯m not your mommy. Just because you don¡¯t have a mommy doesn¡¯t mean you will call me mommy.¡± ¡°You¡¯re my mommy. It¡¯s just that this truth is unaware of you.¡± * Ethlyn cried, recalling her conversation with Roselet. ¡®She told me that I¡¯m her mommy, and I didn¡¯t believe her.¡¯ She talked with Cinder. She didn¡¯t know how she was going to apologize to her pup. All she hoped was that Roselet to forgive her. ¡®How bad she used to feel whenever I was rude to her.¡± More tears rolled out of her eyes thinking this. * ¡®I¡¯m not your damn mommy. Leave; I don¡¯t want you anywhere near me. You¡¯re pissing me off, pup. I want to stay alone with my son, not you. So, GOOOOO.¡¯ ¡®I just want to spend some time with you, but you¡¯re pushing me and acting like a rude mother.¡¯ * ¡®I¡¯m sorry, Rose. I¡¯m so sorry. You were right. I¡¯m very bad but please forgive your mother.¡¯ She prepared for the speech that she would say to her. Feeling guilty and excited to finally meet her as a daughter, she rang the doorbell. She wiped her tears and rang the doorbell again. The next second, the door of the guest house was opened, shocking her because the man in front of her wasn¡¯t among the people thate with Zordan. ¡°Yes?¡± ¡°Alpha Calvin and his pack members?¡± She asked, sensing the light scent of them as if they were not here now. ¡°They left already.¡± Hearing it, the color of her face paled. ¡°What? When? Where did they go? Toward the cemetery or toward the exit of the pack?¡± She asked, but she got the answer to her question when she observed the sound of the chopper that she was ringing from the moment she walked out of her house, but she ignored it then. ¡®No! No! No! No!¡¯ She thought and ran a little in human form, then gave control to Cinder and followed the sound of the chopper. On the other side, Roselet was ridding on Calvin¡¯s wolf, holding his coat tightly with a long face. She wanted to meet her mommy for thest time before leaving, but she couldn¡¯t. She recalled that the doorbell had rung at that moment; it was Beta John informing them about the arrival of the chopper in their territory. Since there wasn¡¯t a helipad in their pack, so they had to climb using adder made of wood and rope. . A/N: Dear Readers, This is book 3 of the series, but it can be read standalone. You can read book 1) Billionaire¡¯s Ex-Wife & His Hidden Babies and Book 2) My Mate is a Witch. 43 Calvin chose chopper to leave instead of trekking by carrying Roselet in his arms for hours. He didn¡¯t mind trekking as well, but he had a doubt that a female werewolf whom he didn¡¯t want anywhere his daughter might follow them after learning the whole truth. After shifting back into a human form, one by one, everyone started climbing on it. While Calvin was climbing up, Roselet looked around in search of her mommy. ¡®Where are you, Mommy? Can¡¯t you hear the sound of chopper?¡¯ She thought. ¡°Let¡¯s go,¡± Calvin ordered to the pilot, sensing Ethlyn and hearing this; her hope died to meet her mommy. While Ethlyn ran as fast as she could, she could just speak in her wolf form. She shifted into human form, still running in wolf form, to call Roselet¡¯s name, because of which she fell down and got injured. ¡°Rossseeee¡± She cried loudly when she saw the chopper start flying higher a little, ready to leave. ¡°Roseeee¡± Little did she know her pup couldn¡¯t hear her because of the sound of the chopper and also because she hadn¡¯t received her wolf¡¯s power. She was just a human pup, but Calvin could hear her cries clearly, but he didn¡¯t care. ¡°Alpha Calvin¡­ let me meet my pup.¡± She yelled, standing on her feet and running in human form. ¡°Alphaaaa¡­¡± In the next second, the chopper started flying toward its destination, and Ethlyn followed it like a maniac. ¡°Alphaaaa¡­. I beg you.¡± She shouted, looking at the sky. ¡®Cry as much as you want, Ethlyn Smith. Your mother did the same to you.¡¯ He thought, recalling how his princess was crying when he saw her. Ethlyn followed the chopper, looking up into the sky, crying, begging Calvin to let her meet Roselet, and calling Roselet¡¯s name multiple times. Unaware of this, Rose ced her head on her father¡¯s chest and yawned. ¡°Sleep, love,¡± Calvin mumbled, caressing her hair. Ethlyn kept running without looking around until she ran into a tree as the chopper was above the forest. She fell down and looked chopper, moving away from her eyesight. So, she shifted and started running again. She kept running behind until another wolf jumped in front of her, and two wolves jumped on her to stop her from running further. ¡®Cinder, stop!! There is no ground to run now.¡¯ Nathan mind linked her, and that was when Cinder saw that if she wouldn¡¯t have been stopped timely, then she would have jumped from the mountain. Cinder didn¡¯t have any other option than watching the chopper, leaving her eyesight helplessly. She let out a painful howl for not getting a chance to meet her daughter.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. * It was pack warriors at the patrol who informed Nathan about Ethlyn running like a maniac behind the chopper, but it wasn¡¯t a car that she could chase easily. He immediately ordered them to stop her because she ended up doing something stupid and ran in the same direction where they informed Ethlyn was running. At the same, he mind-linked Ethlyn¡¯s family members about it. ¡°Ethlyn, have you gone mad? What were you thinking? Trying to catch a chopper?¡± Reva asked and shook her head at the stupidity of her sister. ¡°My pup, Reva. I couldn¡¯t meet my Rose. I couldn¡¯t get a chance to hold her in my arm, Reva. I think this is my punishment for pushing her away every time when she used to call me ¡®Mommy.''¡± Ethlyn bbered, feeling sad. But she also knew that she couldn¡¯t waste her time feeling sad. She quickly stood up on her legs, ready to leave. ¡°Where¡¯re you going now?¡± Reva asked. ¡°Blood Moon Pack.¡± ¡°What?¡± Reva asked in shock. ¡°What did Alpha Calvin think? That if he wouldn¡¯t let me meet my pup here, then I can¡¯te to his pack. I will. And I would. And no one can stop me from doing so. I want my pup. I want my pup with me, Reva.¡± She kept speaking until her eyesnded on her parents, who she ignored as if they were not there, and then on Zordan, who was standing, leaning against the tree, observing everything. Calvin didn¡¯t want Zordan toe with him and suggested spending some time with his mate rather than giving priority to his Beta duties. He knew Calvin had a reason for not letting Roselet meet her mother for thest time before leaving. He was scared that Roselet wouldn¡¯t be able to leave without crying, and the other part was part of him who knew that after knowing the truth, Ethlyn might want her pup. After all, it was never her who left her pup. And he didn¡¯t want all this to happen in front of Roselet. And after watching everything, Zordan knew that Calvin was right about his prediction. ¡°Are you serious, Ethlyn? Do you think Alpha Calvin would be standing at the entrance of his pack to wee you? You¡¯re thinking of meeting Rose in his area. Like really?¡± Reva asked the question which Abigail mind linked her because it didn¡¯t look like Ethlyn wanted to hear anything from her parents, at least not when she knew because of her parents, she had to go through all this now. ¡°I won¡¯t know until I try,¡± Ethlyn responded and started leaving. After walking for a while, she shifted into her wolf form and ran from there. Reva was going to run behind her along with her parents when Zordan spoke, ¡°There is no use of wasting your time in running behind Ethlyn.¡± ¡°What? What do you mean? You want us to leave Ethlyn on her own?¡± Abigail asked when Zordan red at her. ¡°Do you think, after doing everything, you have any right to say that?¡± Zordan asked rudely and looked at Reva. ¡°Let Ethlyn do what she wants and let Calvin do whatever he wants.¡± . #TBC 44 ¡°I don¡¯t understand Zordan. What do you want to say? Please borate.¡± Reva said in confusion. ¡°As much I know, Calvin won¡¯t allow Ethlyn near Rose. He is not a viin but is scared that Ethlyn might take Rose away from him. And after hearing Ethlyn¡¯s words, there is no surprise that she wants Rose, just like Calvin.¡± ¡°This problem can be solved only if they will agree to share Rose together. But who is convincing Alpha Calvin to do this?¡± Reva asked, thinking about the situation of both parties. They both want the same thing; only the difference is that Calvin¡¯s side away too much stronger. ¡°Calvin¡¯s parents. Brandon and Sophia Haysbert. Only they can talk to him about it.¡± Zordan responded. ¡°Where are they? I will talk with them.¡± Christian said immediately. ¡°Even I¡­ I will apany you.¡± Abigail said next. ¡°Whatever is happening with Ethlyn is because of my mistake. I have to help my princess in whatever way¡¯s possible for my redemption.¡± She added, feeling guilty. Abigail just wanted a fresh start for Ethlyn by getting rid of her pup, but little did she know that Ethlyn¡¯s new beginning was with his pup, not with Nathan. ¡°But won¡¯t Alpha Calvin¡¯s parents be equally angry like Alpha Calvin? I mean, mom and dad left his granddaughter at the pack border?¡± Reva asked. ¡°They will,¡± Zordan replied. ¡°And your parents have to face the wrath of Uncle Brandon. I will pray that your parents won¡¯t get a chance to face the wrath of Calvin¡¯s brother, who is the reincarnation of Lucifer in human form.¡± He added, seeing the misery of Ethlyn¡¯s and Reva¡¯s parents. ¡°But there is one thing that can convince them easily?¡± ¡°And what is that?¡± ¡°Marriage.¡± Zordan said before continuing, ¡°Do you know why Rose hid those rings? Because she didn¡¯t want her mommy to get engaged with anyone else except her daddy. So that part might favor you.¡± he added. ¡°I know there are a lot of things that you have heard about my Alpha in the past. And I won¡¯t lie; it is true. Calvin might have slept with almost female in his pack, in fact, not just that but also at his workce and all the packs nearby Blood Moon Pack, but I can assure you that he has no other female in his life except his daughter, mother, sisters, and niece.¡± Christian and Abigail looked at each other. They didn¡¯t agree with Zordan¡¯s ideapletely. They weren¡¯t sure about the marriage proposal because it was Ethlyn¡¯s life¡¯s biggest decision, but one thing was for sure they had to talk with Calvin¡¯s parents. ¡°Let¡¯s book the ticket to Paris,¡± Christian said. ¡°I was thinking of moving in with Zordan in his pack by next week, but I think we can spend time together even in his pack,¡± Reva mumbled, looking at Zordan, who smiled at her supporting her decision. ¡°You will move in with him?¡± Abigail asked. ¡°That¡¯s what anyone does when they find their mate. Zordan can¡¯t leave his position to be with Reva for nothing.¡± Christian replied, knowing what Abigail was thinking. No parents could ever be prepared for this day. ¡°Hmm. Go and start packing your things then.¡± Abigail said with a heavy heart. Reva nodded her head and grabbed Zordan¡¯s hand to leave from there. ****** When Calvin reached his pack, Roselet was already asleep. He carried her to her room. ¡®I hope you can forgive me for not letting you meet your mommy while leaving.¡¯ He thought, caressing her face. ¡®I¡¯m sorry, love. But from the beginning, I¡¯ve been very selfish and mean. I didn¡¯t like sharing. Your Uncle Colton used to share everything or give up on everything that belonged to him with me, but I never did. And I never will. You¡¯re all mine, ALL MINE.¡± He kissed her hair and kept staring at her. He didn¡¯t realize when did he fall asleep by her side. He felt someone bugging his mind. He opened his mind link when Lemieux spoke. ¡°Alpha, she is here.¡± ¡°Who?¡± ¡°Rose¡¯s Mommy.¡± Calvin¡¯s eyes were wide open upon hearing this; he looked around and found it was morning already. He checked the time; he had missed the training already. ¡°Did I hear Rose¡¯s mommy?¡± ¡°Yes, Alpha. She is here.¡± Lemieux confirmed. ¡°It seems like she haspleted the whole journey by running. And just like I had heard, the wolves of Wind Winder Pack are blessed with speed as their strength.¡± He said in admiration. ¡°If it had been us, then we would have taken three to four hours more because the strength of our pack wolves is..¡± ¡°Lemi¡­ don¡¯t let her enter the pack. She will leave on her own when she will realize that there is no way she can get a chance to meet my daughter.¡± ¡°Umm.. okay, Alpha. She is here without anything like clothes, so¡­.¡± ¡°Dare you to help her in any way by giving her food or clothes? I have to make her leave. Any kindness shouldn¡¯t be offered.¡± Calvin said in between and closed the mindlink. Lemieux looked at Ethlyn, who was waiting for his response.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°What did Alpha Calvin say?¡± She asked, still trying to catch her breath. She ran like there was no tomorrow because she had to reach Blood Moon Pack before morning because she just couldn¡¯t run like anyone was watching her in the human world, and at the same time, she couldn¡¯t shift as well because shifting naked in the human world meant bing a headline. ¡°Same that we both know, Ethlyn.¡± He said. ¡°I will suggest you leave.¡± . #TBC 45 ¡°Leave? There is no way I¡¯m leaving without my daughter. Rose is not just his daughter, but she is mine as well.¡± Ethlyn yelled at him, losing her patience. A couple of warriors started looking at her as if she had gone mad or what? Lemieux didn¡¯t waste his time by arguing with her or making her leave forcefully because where she wasn¡¯t standing in their territory. ¡°Your wish. Stay here, then. But let me warn you that this is a hunter¡¯s prone zone as well. The story of Blood Moon Pack existence by a hunter around fifty years back is famous.¡± Saying this, he left from there. Ethlyn gulped nervously at this information. She had read about this incident in her pack school as an example of how dangerous hunters could be. Hunters had killed each and every werewolf in this pack, only the werewolves who were out of the pack that night could only survive. She stayed there standing for a while until she observed a warrior checking her naked frame. She fumed in anger and shifted into her wolf form. She sat a little distance from there, taking some rest. The news of a mysterious she-wolf at the pack entrance, iming Roselet as her daughter, flew like a forest fire in the whole pack. Pack members started visiting her to see who the woman was, who left her pup here years back and was here to im her pup shamelessly without knowing the full truth. ¡°Calvin, I heard about that woman¡­.¡± ¡°Make sure that Rose wouldn¡¯te to know about it,¡± Calvin said, cutting Nelina in between. * At night Lemieux informed Calvin that Ethlyn left from the pack entrance, on which heughed mentally. ¡®Only this was your love for Rose? That you left from here just after twelve hours.¡¯ Calvin thought. As in person, he wanted Ethlyn to leave, but at the same time, he didn¡¯t want a mother to not give up on her pup this soon. After two hours, Lemieux updated him about Ethlyn¡¯s arrival again. ¡®It looks like she left for a hunt, Alpha. After all, she must be hungry.¡¯ Lemieux suggested. ¡®I didn¡¯t ask what you think.¡¯ Calvin growled at him before closing the mind link. ¡®She will have to leave before Mom and dad¡¯s arrival.¡¯ He thought, knowing that sooner orter, he would have to throw a party for female Beta. A party meant the arrival of Zordan¡¯s parents, who were out for their god knows on which honeymoons, and also his parents because Zordan was also like a son to his parents. ****** Otherside!! ¡°Boss, I saw a female werewolf.¡± A hunter informed his leader, who listened to him without any interest. ¡°And she is not from Blood Moon Pack.¡± ¡°Are you sure?¡± The leader asked because he didn¡¯t want to mess with the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack by harming their pack members. ¡°Yes, Boss!! She came to our area in search of food.¡± He informed. ¡°All the pack members of the pack know very well that there is no food in our area.¡± ¡°It means that she is still hungry.¡± The leader smirked, thinking something. * Ethlyn was lying on the ground, closing her eyes. She wanted to sleep because she hadn¡¯t slept since thest night, and also, she ran a lot after waking from a deep sleep but damn to an empty stomach, which wasn¡¯t letting her rest properly. She searched for the food nearby but found nothing except some fruits, and as a werewolf, her diet was way too much than just some fruits. Hours had passed since she arrived after searching for food, and all of a sudden, she smelt blood; her wolf raised her head, wondering from where it wasing. She looked at the warriors of the border who were also looking around, maybe after smelling the scent of the blood. A part of Ethlyn wanted to go and check from where this smell wasing, but then she decided to go against that thought; she had no interest in bing the actress in the horror movie who always left their room in search of ghosts after hearing some noise. After a while, her ears rose when she heard the noise of someone¡¯s paw hitting the ground. She focused on the sound and scent and realized it was a deer. She licked her mouth with her tongue and quickly stood up on her paws to finally have her dinner; she couldn¡¯t miss even a single chance. She ran in the direction of the food to chase it quickly before she lost him from her sight. And finally, after running for a while, her eyesnded on the deer eating leaves. She leaned down on the ground and started moving toward the deer silently. She was about to jump on the deer, but he became alert and started running to save his life, and while Cinder started chasing him to her food, she couldn¡¯t stay hungry more. Little did she know that she was at gunpoint with someone else. She was about to catch the door when the hunter shot her. She howled loudly and for a longer time, indicating that she was in pain. * On the other side, Calvin tried to sleep, but he couldn¡¯t. He couldn¡¯t even have his dinner properly tonight, knowing that Ethlyn was sitting outside his pack to meet her daughter without having any food. He could understand why he was feeling so uneasy because Ethlyn was his love¡¯s mother, and he knew when his daughter woulde to know about it, she wouldn¡¯t be happy with what he was doing. Though Lemieux told him that she might have left for the hunt for two hours, he knew that there wouldn¡¯t be any food around. ¡®What if she would die by doing a hunger strike by sitting outside my pack?¡¯ He wondered. His wolf was nagging him to at least offer food to her. ¡®Didn¡¯t mom teach you that you should always provide food and water to the needy even if he or she is your enemy?¡¯ Keanu reminded him. ¡®What if you tell to your daughter if something goes with her mommy? Will she be pleased knowing her daddy did all this to her mommy?¡¯ . #TBCN?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. 46 ¡®Why are you talking like some Romeo? Don¡¯t tell me that you fell in love with her in love at first sight?¡¯ Calvin questioned him. ¡®Rubbish. My feeling for that characterless woman is the same as yours, but I also can¡¯t ignore the fact that she is Rose¡¯s mother.¡¯ Calvin shut his wolf, which was diverting his mind toward Ethlyn; he wanted her to be safe and sound. After so many years, a female had made him this anxious, except Rose. His love was sleeping in front of his eyes, he could sleep peacefully holding her in his arms, yet his mind was consumed by the thought of her mother. The area around the pack was too dangerous. He was even worried for her safety. ¡®Damn, I have to let her enter the pack and offer food to her.¡¯ He finally decided, feeling annoyed when he realized bitterly that he couldn¡¯t sleep a second until he would be assured that she was safe and had had her dinner. ¡®Let that she-wolfe inside the pack.¡¯ He mind-linked the warrior at the pack entrance. ¡®And arrange some food for her.¡¯ he added. ¡®Alpha¡¯¡­ a little pause. ¡®That she-wolf left already.¡¯ ¡®Oh, when?¡¯ ¡®Just a moment before.¡¯ ¡®All right, let me know if shees back.¡¯ Calvin said, closing the mind linking. ¡®She really left?¡¯ he wondered in concern instead of feeling happy. ¡®Or she left in search of food?¡¯ He knew he couldn¡¯t sleep peacefully, not until he would find out where did Ethlyn go? Returned back to her pack or, worst, got trapped in hu¡­ He quickly shook his head and left the room in search of Ethlyn. Impatience and annoyance began pumping his veins when he realized that he was worrying for that woman. Fuck!! No matter how much he wanted to do nothing with Ethlyn. He knew that they were connected with Roselet. A string of cursed came out of his throat the more he walked toward the pack entrance at two at night instead of sleeping. All of a sudden, he heard a loud cry of a wolf in pain. ¡®Ethlyn¡¯ Fear quickly engulfed him, freezing him for a while. His heart started pounding loudly against his heart as his brain tried to think of all the possibilities behind this howl. He started running, giving control to Keanu. He couldn¡¯t let anything happen to Ethlyn. ¡®I have to bring her safely, or I won¡¯t be able to forgive myself.¡¯ ****** Ethlyn shifted into her human form immediately when she fell on the ground because of the enormous pain in her arms. She looked at her right arm. It was bleeding, and the fact that silver bullets coated with wolfsbane had been used to shoot her wasn¡¯t in her favor. ¡®Hunters,¡¯ She hissed when she realized that she had fallen into a trap because of her hungry stomach. She didn¡¯t move and stayed lying on the ground as dead so that her enemies coulde in front of her. Due to theck of Cinder, she just couldn¡¯t sense them, and also, she was positive that they had used herbs to hide their scent. ¡°Why is she not moving? Did you shoot her heart instead of arms?¡±Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°No. I don¡¯t know why she is not moving. Or maybe she is just acting.¡± Saying this, the shooter shoots Ethlyn¡¯s leg to see her response. While Ethlyn bit her tongue, not letting her cry escape from her mouth. ¡°You idiot, you killed her for real.¡± The first one scolded another one angrily and started walking toward Ethlyn carefully. The first one kicked Ethlyn¡¯s body while the other one pointed his gun at her. In case she would be ying tricks with them. He would shoot her then and there to save their life. He kicked her hard to turn her body. They observed that they didn¡¯t shoot her in her heart. ¡°Maybe she fell unconscious.¡± He mumbled and crouched to check her vein, finding this as her chance. Ethlyn opened her eyes and threw a lot of soil on the hunter holding gun and then grabbed the head of the first hunter and twisted his head, killing him then and there. Before she would have dealt with the hunter holding gun, someone injected something in her neck from the back. That was when Ethlyn realized that there weren¡¯t just two hunters. A loud, angry howl ripped through the air, shaking all the trees around them with its power. Ethlyn was having a hard time opening her eyes, but she recognized that howl. She had heard itst night. The hunter with a gun tried to shoot Calvin too, seeing him running toward them, but each time Calvin escaped from his shot because he could see all the bullets fired from the gun crystal clearly. The other hunter, who had injected Ethlyn, started running from there to save his life. Leaving his partner to die. Calvin jumped on the hunter without wasting any time, his teeth grabbed onto the neck of the hunter, and with one hard pull, he ripped the head off his body. Ethlyn was watching this all in a blurry image. She saw that red werewolf shifting into a human form. Though his face wasn¡¯t clear to her but she knew he was her pup¡¯s daddy. Alpha Calvin. ¡°Ethlyn¡­ Ethlyn!!¡± Calvin quickly reached near her, but till then, she had lost her conscience. He gently picked her up in his arms, holding her close to his chest, and started running toward the pack. He really hoped nothing to happen to Ethlyn, or he would have to live all his life in guilty. Keanu agreed with this and med Calvin for Ethlyn¡¯s state. ¡°Why are you bringing her inside the pack, Alpha?¡± Alisha, a female warrior, asked. ¡°I have heard that she was rejected and kicked out of Wind Winder Pack for cheating on Alpha Nathan. Bringing such a characterless woman inside the pack is not good for the pack¡¯s teenage and pups.¡± Calvin was already mad at himself, and when a warrior on patrol started giving him a lecture at this moment, he started losing it. . #TBC 47 ¡°Be careful with your words, Alisha. You¡¯re talking about that woman who gave birth to our princess.¡± Lemieux said, saving her from Calvin¡¯s anger. Calvin admitted her to the pack hospital as soon as possible. And didn¡¯t leave the hospital throughout the time. ¡°How is she, doctor?¡± Calvin asked. ¡°Thankfully, non of her organs are injured. I have removed the silver bullets from her body and given antidote of the wolfsbane in her system. As for now, she is not healing, but the moment her wolf will be back, she will start healing her human.¡± ¡°Okay. Thank you.¡± Calvin said and nodded his head when the doctor left from there after bowing his head in front of him. ¡°What now, Alpha?¡± Lemieux asked, wondering what his Alpha was going to do next because Ethlyn was finally inside the pack. ¡°I can¡¯t push this woman away from my daughter more than this. Because the more I would do that, I would stoop low in my own eyes and my princess¡¯s eyes.¡± Calvin muttered with a frown. ¡°That¡¯s why now, I will not push her way, but my princess will,¡± he said with a smile and watched the time. ¡°Let¡¯s go. It¡¯s time for the training.¡± * On the other side, Ady in her early fifties with blonde hair and green eyes checked the time again while traveling on the flight. ¡°It will take a couple of hours more to reach, Mon Amour [My Love]. Please sleep.¡± A man in his early sixties mumbled, cing a kiss on her forehead. * A few hourster!! Ethlyn stirred in her sleep and felt a soft mattress under her. Without opening her eyes, she inhaled the scent around her to see where she was at that moment, and she quickly opened her eyes when she realized she was in the hospital smelling the scent of medicines and sound and sound of cries of babies, people calling ¡®doctor¡¯ and a few more. She looked around and found an olddy sitting beside her and reading a magazine. ¡°Good Morning, Ms. Smith,¡± Nelina said, seeing her awake. ¡°Good Morning,¡± Ethlyn said and recalled what had happenedst night and how she could havended in the pack hospital. ¡®Now that I¡¯m inside the pack. I have to use this opportunity to meet my daughter.¡¯ She thought. ¡°How are you feeling now?¡± Nelina asked. ¡°Not that great.¡± Ethlyn half lied. It was true that she wasn¡¯t feeling good, but it was because she didn¡¯t have proper food, not because of the incident that happenedst night. Nelina chuckled at her answer before speaking, ¡°You¡¯re all right, Ms. Smith. The doctor has confirmed about it. If you¡¯re trying to fool me so that you won¡¯t get kicked out of the pack, then rx. That¡¯s not happening.¡± She added.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°I just that because Calvin asked me to bring you to the pack house so that you can meet our princess,¡± Nelina said, widening Ethlyn¡¯s eyes. ¡°I¡¯m alright. I¡¯mpletely fine.¡± She said, quickly leaving the bed. She couldn¡¯t wait for a second to meet Roselet. She didn¡¯t know what made a change in Calvin¡¯s heart, but whatever it was, she didn¡¯t want to waste the moment. ¡°Well, that¡¯s a lie. You¡¯re notpletely fine.¡± Nelina pointed out. ¡°Please, I want to meet my daughter.¡± Ethlyn requested, changing the topic. ¡°All right.¡± Nelina agreed and got a bag from the couch. ¡°Change your clothes first.¡± She said, giving that bag to her. Ethlyn looked inside a found a dress inside. She wasn¡¯t sure whether it would fit her or not, but when she checked the size, it was of her size but was a used dress. Ethlyn didn¡¯t ask the real owner of the dress and changed from a hospital gown to that chiffon-smocked tiered midi dress. She tied her caramel hair color into a high pony tale and then looked at Nelina. ¡°I¡¯m ready now,¡± Ethlyn said, to which Nelina looked at her carefully; Roselet definitely didn¡¯t take up on her. ¡°Come with me,¡± Nelina said, and Ethlyn started following her in excitement and happiness to finally meet Roselet. She rehearsed the sentences that she would speak when she would meet her pup. Ethlyn¡¯s jaw almost dropped when she saw the size of the pack house. Except for the pack house, there were only eighteen small houses around it. ¡°This way.¡± Nelina guided. ¡°All the pack members stay in a one-pack house?¡± Ethlyn asked in surprise. ¡°Yes, This mansion has 2401 rooms,¡± Nelina replied. ¡°Calvin has started this pack from scratch after whatever had happened around fifty years back. So, not everyone could afford a house then.¡± They entered the elevator, and after a while, they walked out to the topmost floor of the packhouse. Ethlyn realized Nelina was someone close to Calvin because she wasn¡¯t just calling him by his name but also had the Pincode of the lock at the entrance of the penthouse. ¡°Now, another song, Calvin.¡± She heard Roselet¡¯s excited tone. Her feet started following her voice. ¡°Sure. How about this one?¡± Calvin asked her and started making sounds by hitting his foot on the floor. ¡®There once was a ship that put to sea The name of the ship was the Billy of Tea The winds blew up, her bow dipped down Oh blow, my bully boys, blow (huh)¡¯ * In the next paragraph, Roselet joined him happily, enjoying the song and also her time with her daddy. Ethlyn reached where they were singing. * ¡®Soon may the Wellermane To bring us sugar and tea and rum One day, when the tonguing is done We¡¯ll take our leave and go¡¯ * #TBC 48 For a while, she was surprised to see Calvin in the kitchen, and Roselet was on his back, holding his neck and wrapping her legs around him. Calvin was singing while preparing Salmon and sd bagels for Roselet¡¯s lunch box and shaking his legs at the same time. * She¡¯d not been two weeks from shoreAll content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. When down on her a right whale bore The captain called all hands and swore He¡¯d take that whale in tow (huh) * She didn¡¯t want to admit it, but she was jealous of the bond between Roselet and Calvin. She had thought that Calvin would be a careless father; after all, Calvin didn¡¯t look like a person to her who would have ever handled the responsibility for anything. But damn, she was so wrong about him. * Soon may the Wellermane To bring us sugar and tea and rum One day, when the tonguing is done We¡¯ll take our leave and go * Ethlyn wanted to gain Roselet¡¯s toward her, but she looked so happy and so cute while singing that she didn¡¯t want to disturb her and waited for Roselet to see her, but atst, she couldn¡¯t control herself and started joining father and daughter. Da-da-da-da-da Da-da-da-da-da-da-da Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da * ¡°Mommmmmyyyy,¡± Roselet screamed happily, unable to believe her eyes, and quickly looked at Calvin. ¡°Calvin, is mommy really here? She asked him to confirm, to which he nodded his head with a smile. ¡°Daddddyyyy¡± ¡°Yes, love.¡± ¡°Can I go in her arms?¡± She asked with a pout. She didn¡¯t want to make Calvin feel bad that she left his side the moment Ethlyn came into the picture. At the same time, Ethlyn clenched her jaw, seeing the control of Calvin over Roselet, while Calvin smirked, silently showing her where he stands in Roselet¡¯s life. ¡°Sure, love.¡± ¡°When did you arrive here, Mommy?¡± Roselet asked, wrapping her hands around her neck. ¡°Yesterday morning, dear,¡± Ethlyn replied with a smirk. ¡°And I wanted to meet you when you were leaving my pack, but your daddy didn¡¯t let me meet you.¡± She told Roselet the truth about her father and then red at Calvin, who was a stupid grin on his face. Ethlyn walked out of the kitchen and sat on the couch, keeping Roselet in herp. ¡°At that time, Calvin was angry, but it looks like he isn¡¯t angry anymore; otherwise, you wouldn¡¯t be here,¡± Roselet responded, knowing her father very well; sometimes, he might behave rudely in anger, but he undoes his mistake as well when he realizes his mistake. Roselet turned her head and looked at Calvin. ¡°I¡¯m so proud of you, daddy. I¡¯m d that you didn¡¯t let me down.¡± She said, giving him a flying kiss. Calvin caught it and brought it close to his heart, faking to faint, on which Roselet giggled. By observing them for a while, Ethlyn felt that she wasn¡¯t needed in Roselet¡¯s life anymore. ¡®Am I thatte that my pup learned to survive without me?¡¯ She wondered. ¡°By the way, Mommy, are you here just to meet me?¡± Roselet asked hopefully. ¡°No, sweetheart. I¡¯m here to apologize to you for my rude behavior. I¡¯m so sorry for hurting you and making you cry.¡± Ethlyn sincerely apologized while Calvin sat beside them on the couch beside them, holding Roselet¡¯s breakfast in his hand. Of course, Roselet could eat her food on her own, but Calvin used to feed her in the morning because she used to take a lot of time to finish the food, and she had to reach school timely. ¡°You don¡¯t have to apologize, Mommy. It¡¯s fine. Grandma says that only a person with a big heart can apologize and only a person with a bigger heart can forgive, and my heart is very big,¡± Roselet said, widening her whole hand on which Ethlyn kissed her cheek, wiping her happy tears that her daughter was raised so well. Roselet then looked at Calvin and opened her mouth for the first bite. Ethlyn wanted to feed her too, but at that time, she controlled her emotions. ¡°Except for apologizing, why are you here, Mommy?¡± Roselet asked again. She wanted to hear that particr thing that her innocent eyes had dreamt of. ¡°I¡­ I¡­ Rose, sweetheart¡­ please don¡¯t get me wrong but is it possible for you to stay some time with me.. Just with me. Just in the way you lived with your daddy all these years? I mean, we can create a great bond together, and then..¡± ¡°Mommy, Mommy!!¡± Roselet stopped her after munching her food. Calvin had told her already that she couldn¡¯t have both her real father and real mother at the same time, and listening to all this; she understood what her mommy was suggesting. ¡°I can¡¯t live without daddy.¡± She said and saw Ethlyn¡¯s sad face. ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± Ethlyn smiled meekly and careless her hair, ¡°I¡¯m d that you love your daddy so much. And don¡¯t be sorry for telling the truth.¡± She said so that Roselet wouldn¡¯t feel bad. While Calvin was so proud of her daughter, he would buy her anything she would ask at that moment. Roselet smiled, ¡°Now, except for this topic, why are you here, Mommy?¡± ¡°I guess nothing,¡± Ethlyn mumbled. ¡°I just wanted to share each and every moment of my life with you, but I also respect your decision to stay with your daddy.¡± ¡°But I never said I don¡¯t want to stay with you,¡± Roselet said, and all of a smile wiped from Calvin¡¯s face. ¡°You can stay here with us. In that way, I will have both mommy and daddy.¡± She suggested. . #TBC 49 ¡®As if I will let that happen?¡¯ Calvin thought. ¡®I will talk about it with herter rather than cutting her words in front of her mommy.¡¯ ¡°Really? I can stay here?¡± Ethlyn asked in surprise and looked at the frown on Calvin¡¯s face while Roselet nodded her head. ¡°How?¡± ¡°By marrying daddy, but before that, you have to fall in love with daddy,¡± Roselet said with a big smile on her face, and hearing it, Ethlyn¡¯s face paled while Calvin startedughing loudly. ¡°Hahhahhahha!!¡± Heughed, holding his stomach. He tried to control hisughter when Roselet red at him, but he just couldn¡¯t, so, Roselet pushed breakfast in his mouth so that he would stopughing, and it worked. ****** Calvin let Ethlyn drop Roselet school today along with Nelina because Roselet wanted the same. And after the conversation that happened in the morning, he was positive that his daughter wasn¡¯t leaving him at any cost, and at the same time, Ethlyn couldn¡¯t stay around Roselet all the time because as much as he knew her, she would like to die than marrying him and for falling in love with him, she had to take a couple of lives. And, and, and the most important part was that even Calvin had to fall in love with Ethlyn in case there would be any chance of marriage between them. And Calvin was hell positive that he could never fall in love with someone like her. Hell, to be honest, he never fell in love, just like his twin brother Colton. Only the difference between them was that his twin¡¯s brother was a virgin and had nothing to do with any woman, while he had to do everything with women before. He shook his head to remove all these things from his mind and removed his t-shirt because it got spoiled when Roselet forcefully made her eat breakfast to shut his mouth. He had barely thrown the t-shirt off the bed when he sensed Ethlyn, who was about to enter his room, fuming in anger. ¡°You¡¯re enjoying this, aren¡¯t you?¡± She yelled, feeling frustrated. ¡°You taught all those things to Rose, didn¡¯t you?¡± She yelled again, reaching near him. ¡°I knew you¡¯re a shameless man, but I didn¡¯t know that you would break the record of shamelessness by using my daughter against me.¡± She yelled, making Calvin lose his temper. He grabbed her neck and hit her head against the wall. He couldn¡¯t understand why he used to lose control of his anger in front of her. Hell, he had never felt this angry in his whole life before, but thanks to HER, she was forcing his beast toe out of him again and again. ¡°Aahhh!!¡± ¡°She is my daughter, Ethlyn Smith,¡± he said with a low growl. ¡°Just because you gave birth to her doesn¡¯t make you a mother. I have¡­ I have fulfilled all the responsibilities and duties of a mother in her life, so you stand nowhere around me.¡± He hissed, leaving her neck. ¡°I have a reason because of which I wasn¡¯t there for her,¡± Ethlyn said, rubbing her neck. ¡°But now that I¡¯m back, I want my daughter.¡± ¡°Yeah! Yeah! Keep dreaming.¡± Calvin taunted. ¡°And why do you even need Rose? A slut like you can sleep with anyone again and have a pup. It¡¯s not a big deal for you, is it?¡± he said and watched her body getting stiffened, and her wolf was on the surface. ¡°I can say the same for you, Manwhore. I have sure you would have fucked a lot of chicks, so choose one and get her pregnant with your pup. It¡¯s not a big deal for you, is it?¡± She taunted him back in the same tone. ¡°It will be easier for you inparison to me because I have slept with only two men, unlike you, who have fucked for more than centuries.¡± She added.All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°As if I have seen you getting fucked by just two, Slut.¡± Calvin said, and in the next moment, Ethlyn attacked him for calling her slut again and again. They bothnded on the bed as Ethlyn jumped on Calvin. Only Moon Goddess knew what Ethlyn was thinking before attacking Calvin. Before in a couple of seconds, Calvin flipped the position, pinning her down. As his one hand was on her throat, and he had one knee between her legs. Ethlyn tried to fight, but Calvin pinned both her hands above her head with his other hand. ¡°I might throw you in the cell for attacking an Alpha.¡± Calvin hissed. Ethlyn tried to fight but failed. ¡°You pushed me to the extent that I lost control over my anger.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t speak anything wrong, just the truth. Now, you can¡¯t ept the truth; then it¡¯s not my problem, Slut.¡± Calvin hissed. ¡°I¡¯m not a slut.¡± Ethlyn said, but this time, her voice didn¡¯t hold anger but pain, ¡°I was just framed that night. Someone plotted against me, and I fell into the trap.¡± She mumbled, and again her anger returned, looking at Calvin, ¡°Or who knows it was you to take revenge on me for pping you publicly.¡± Calvin was about to say that he didn¡¯t do anything when his nose hit a familiar scent, and he turned his head to confirm whether she was indeed her or his smelling power was ying tricks with him. ¡®Mom,¡¯ His eyes widened, seeing his mother, Sophia Haysbert, at the door. While using Calvin¡¯s distraction as a benefit, Ethlyn hit her head hard with his and flipped the position, pinning Calvin down on the bed. ¡°Leave me, you idiot,¡± Calvin said, trying to throw Ethlyn¡¯s away. ¡°No way.¡± ¡°Woo!!¡± Sophia pped, and hearing it, Ethlyn quickly left Calvin and looked at thedy, feeling embarrassed of their position, while Calvin quickly jumped off the bed. ¡°You two,e outside.¡± . #TBC . A/N: Yes, you will get a slight glimpse of Colton in the uing chapter, but since this is not his story, so don¡¯t keep the hope high. 50 ¡°You two,e outside.¡± Saying this, Sophia left from them. Ethlyn sensed that she was just a human, but still, she ordered an Alpha with authority, and also, by seeing her, the color of Calvin¡¯s face paled. Calvin quickly reached toward the wardrobe to get a fresh t-shirt. That was when Ethlyn sensed her parents¡¯ scent. ¡®Why am I having the scent of my parents here? There is no way they can be here. This shameless Alpha won¡¯t let them in this easily, or will he?¡¯ ¡°Do you need the invitation to leave the bed?¡± Calvin asked sarcastically. Ethlyn quickly left the bed before asking, ¡°My parents are here, aren¡¯t they? What are you nning against me?¡± ¡°O hello, I¡¯m not a criminal who has done a Ph. D. in nning and plotting. I¡¯m damn sure that it must be your parents¡¯ n toe here with my parents.¡± Calvin responded bitterly. ¡°Now,e out quickly; Dad doesn¡¯t like waiting.¡± Saying this, he left the room first, and Ethlyn quickly followed him, cursing her parents if it was really them behind everything. ¡®Why did they involve Alpha Calvin¡¯s parents? Now, they will also stand against me just like Alpha.¡¯ She mentally thought and watched her parents sitting on the couch, and a man in his sixties, who looked like an older version of Calvin, was sitting on the other couch, and the samedy that came to call them. Ethlyn¡¯s cheeks turned red in embarrassment; by thinking about the position, she caught them on the bed. Also, she was positive that the other people would also have an idea about it. After all, they were werewolves, and the door of the room was open. ¡°Mom!!¡± Calvin reached near them and hugged Sophia first, and kissed her cheek. After breaking the hug, ¡°What a pleasant shock, dad!!¡± He added, hitting his fist with Brandon¡¯s in a friendly way, and sat beside him, giving him a side hug. Seeing the bond of Calvin with his parents, Ethlyn was positive that now she would have to fight with everyone for her daughter. ¡®Mom, please tell me that you¡¯re not behind it.¡¯ She mind-linked Abigail, throwing daggers through her eyes. ¡®Trust me, princess. They¡¯re here to help you, not to be a barrier between you and your daughter.¡¯ Abigail assured Ethlyn, recalling the conversation on the phone. Instead of going to Paris and talking to them, Zordan shared Sophia¡¯s number with them so that Brandon and Sophia could also reach Blood Moon Pack together with them. ¡°I¡¯m d that you felt that way because even we were shocked to learn that you didn¡¯t share the news about finding Rose¡¯s mommy,¡± Brandon said, patting Calvin¡¯s back and pulling out a chocte bar from his pocket, forwarding it toward him. ¡°Thank you, dad,¡± Calvin said and quickly started eating it, not caring over the fact that he was thirty-two years old man and three more people were sitting over there. While for Brandon, Calvin was the same little pup who always used to get happy, seeing choctes from his father. So, he was also a father now, but he was still a pup for Brandon. ¡°We all were searching for her since day one, then what happened all of a sudden that you not just share about it with us and also didn¡¯t want her to do with Rose?¡± Brandon asked. Calvin stopped, eating his chocte, and replied bluntly, ¡°Because I don¡¯t want my Rose to be anywhere this characterless woman.¡± Christian growled at Calvin for using that word for his daughter, and Ethlyn¡¯s fist tightened, but Brandon growled at Christian for growling at his pup. ¡°I will give you and your daughter a chance to speak, Mr. Christian Smith. Dare you disrespect my son because you three are in his pack right now.¡± Brandon said in a cold tone, releasing his Alpha aura. Sophia held her arms to calm him down while Calvin enjoyed his chocte, watching everything. It wasn¡¯t every day that his father supported him. Brandon looked at Calvin and asked, ¡°I hope you have a reason for calling her by that particr name.¡±Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Yes, I have it. I met her once at my friend Christopher¡¯s wedding, Dad.¡± Calvin said and narrated everything to his parents, whatever was in his knowledge. ¡°¡­ and this woman¡­ who knew that her friend was wrong but was still supporting her. What kind of morals will she give to my daughter to speak lie? Support the wrong deed?¡± ¡°I¡­¡± Ethlyn tried to speak when Calvin cut her in between. ¡°You will get a chance, Woman. Let me finish first,¡± he said rudely, shutting her. ¡°She was supporting the cheating of her friend. Not just that, she herself cheated on her mate by sleeping with me.¡± He pointed out. ¡°I might have slept with unlimited women, but I have never cheated on anyone because I was nevermitted to anyone,¡± Calvin spoke. ¡°I don¡¯t have a problem with a woman having a lot of affairs, or they do n their life, but what I hate is betrayal, and she is one of that women. And I don¡¯t want Rose anywhere near her and learn anything from her.¡± ¡°And do you know what had recently happened in her pack?¡± With this, he told them how they insulted Roselet and made her cry unstoppable. Sophia was quick to hold Brandon, who was ready to tear Abigail into pieces. Over the phone call, Christian and Abigail just told them about their past deed, but never did they mention the recent incident. ¡°Dad, Dad!! Please listen to my words instead of ring at them.¡± Calvin said, gaining Brandon¡¯s attention toward him. ¡°To be honest, I don¡¯t expect anything good from Mr. & Mrs. Smith. And their daughter is following their footsteps who not a once stopped her mother that night.¡± . #TBC 51 ¡°That¡¯s the reason I don¡¯t want this woman in my daughter¡¯s life. And now, I¡¯m done.¡± Calvin finished speaking. Ethlyn was about to speak when Abigail spoke, ¡°Mr. Hasysbert, the mistake of my daughter of that night is that she loves us a lot. Alpha Calvin wanted to kill me that night, and she spoke so to that Alpha Calvin ended up pouring his anger on her instead of me. And exactly the same thing happened that night. People change the topic, but she changes the angle of Alpha Calvin¡¯s anger. She paused before continuing, ¡°And Ethlyn did try to stop me before Alpha Calvin¡¯s arrival.¡± ¡°Sir, Ma¡¯am!!¡± Ethlyn spoke, ¡°I wasn¡¯t helping my friend in her lies for her favor. It was just that I couldn¡¯t stand seeing the insult of Ashley¡¯s parents. What your son did was a good thing, but I wouldn¡¯t support his ways of doing it.¡± She said confidently. ¡°He could that done all thing privately as well. I mean between the family. What was the need to do all that drama publicly? It takes years to build an image, and Alpha Calvin ruins the reputation and image of Ashley¡¯s parents in a few minutes. He told everyone that how one of Ashley¡¯s loversmitted suicide but did he know that Ashley¡¯s father couldn¡¯t handle all this at died of a heart attack?¡± ¡°Did he know that how embarrassing it was for her family members in that locality that they had to leave from there by selling everything?¡± Ethlyn questioned. ¡°And I¡¯m ashamed of supporting Ashley at that moment because I was just thinking about saving her parent¡¯s reputation.¡± ¡°How easily Alpha Calvin named me as Characterless and for cheating but did he ever ask me that how I ended up sleeping with him?¡± Ethlyn questioned. ¡°But I won¡¯t me him for that; even my mother thought about me in the same way.¡± ¡°I never talked about that night because no one asked me before. I was in heat that night, so I had no memory of who was with me that night after Nathan left me in our room after I fell unconscious after a couple of drinks, and I don¡¯t know that Inded in Alpha Calvin¡¯s room. But who knows, Alpha Calvin would have done this to take revenge on me for pping him?¡± ¡°Excuse me¡­¡± ¡°You got your chance to speak. Now it¡¯s my turn.¡± Ethlyn shut Calvin in between just like he did when she was about to speak. ¡°I know you have done a lot of things for Rose in all these past years, but it wasn¡¯t that I was enjoying my vacation in the Maldives after abandoning my pup. When I fell down because of slippery soil on the mountain, my first priority was to keep my pup safe. I was in aa for all years because Cinder used her powers to keep Rose safe instead of healing the nerves that joined us. I could have let Rose die if I wouldn¡¯t have wanted her, but I didn¡¯t. I wanted her then. I want her now.¡± ¡°Sir, Ma¡¯am. Please!! Please, don¡¯t take any decision against me. I have already lost my son. I don¡¯t want to lose my daughter.¡± Ethlyn said again, revealing that she was pregnant with twins. ¡°Alpha Calvin couldn¡¯t feel the pain of his death because he wouldn¡¯t have waited for his pup¡¯s birth. But I did. I used to count the days until my pup¡¯s arrival.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sure that Alpha Calvin wouldn¡¯t have celebrated Rose¡¯s sudden arrival in his life, but I¡­ I had celebrated each and every moment with my pup and waited to see him/her. It was my destiny that I couldn¡¯t get that then, but thanks to Doctor Liara Wayne that I¡¯m finally awake from a deep sleep.¡± Ethlyn said, unaware of the fact that she was Calvin¡¯s sister. And hearing that name, Sophia¡¯s eyes moistened, and Brandon¡¯s body stiffened. ¡°No matter how many times I would thank her, it wouldn¡¯t be any less. She gave me a second chance.¡±Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. Brandon¡¯s chest tightened in pride, hearing Liara¡¯s praise, and he recalled his words before kicking her out of the family. ¡®Get lost from here before I end up ripping your mate¡¯s head. I thought you would be a DOCTOR in the future, but you¡­ you left your career for your mate who is not even of your standard.¡¯ ¡°I agree, Mr. Haysbert,¡± Christian spoke. ¡°I didn¡¯t know Doctor Liara is your daughter. I must say, she is really very talented.¡± ¡°Please don¡¯t mind me, but you¡¯re an urban werewolf, so you¡¯re not really famous in all the packs, but your daughter is making you famous all over the packs now. You must be very proud of her.¡± He added. Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened in shock at this new information. She didn¡¯t know these people were that famous and powerful. Calvin observed his parents getting overwhelmed after hearing about Liara, so he spoke. ¡°Now that you¡¯re finished. Let me rify for you that I didn¡¯t spike your drink or control your mind toe in my room because I can never stoop that low.¡± Calvin spoke. Ethlyn answered back when she observed his words. ¡®Could these things have been with me?¡¯ She wondered, and surprisingly the same thing came across Calvin¡¯s mind. The woman he was supposed to share his night with vanished in thin air. ¡°And just like you, I wasn¡¯t in my sense,¡± Calvin said and recalled that the unknown she-wolf was aware of it. ¡°Enough now. I have heard the points of both of you. And Calvin, I feel not everything is what it looks like in its first impression. I won¡¯t go far and will be an example of your own brother.¡± Brandon said. . #TBC 52 ¡°Why don¡¯t you give her a chance to understand and know Ethlyn in a better way?¡± ¡°And why would I do that?¡± Calvin asked in confusion. ¡°For the marriage, of course!!¡± ¡°No way!¡± Both Calvin and Ethlyn said at the same time. Brandon looked at Ethlyn, narrowing his eyes. ¡°Then you can leave. Call us selfish, but We aren¡¯t sending my granddaughter away from her home.¡± ¡°But Sir, Ma¡¯am..¡± ¡°Sometimes children have to face the consequences of their parent¡¯s wrong deed, Ethlyn,¡± Brandon said, cutting her in between. ¡°If you want to spend your life with your pup, then, unfortunately, you don¡¯t have any other choice. Please leave with your parents now if your answer is NO.¡± He added, giving no room for discussion. Ethlyn opened her mouth to speak, but she couldn¡¯t. ¡°You can force her to marry me, but you can¡¯t do that to me because there is nothing that you can use as a weapon against me,¡± Calvin said, leaving the couch. ¡°I¡¯m enough for Rose. So, I don¡¯t want her in Rose¡¯s life.¡± ¡°Was I not enough for you, Calvin?¡± Sophia asked, opening her mouth for the first time during the whole conversation. ¡°Was I not enough for you when you were a kid? I didn¡¯t remember failing in fulfilling any duties as both mother and father.¡± ¡°That¡¯s because you fulfilled both the responsibility of mom and dad,¡± Calvin replied, recalling his childhood when his father wasn¡¯t with her mother because they both had gotten divorced. It wasn¡¯t that her mother failed anywhere, but he just wanted a daddy, just like a normal family, just like other kids of his age, so that he could save him from his mother¡¯s wrath. He immediately remembered that how Roselet said that she wanted to stay with her mommy and daddy. Without answering Sophia, Calvin walked out of the penthouse. *** A few hourster!! A man who looked like an exact copy of Calvin entered in the penthouse, carrying Roselet in his arms. At the same time, Roselet¡¯s hands were full of choctes. ¡°Go and ask Nelina to keep all the choctes except one in the fridge,¡± he said, putting her down.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Thank you so much, Buddyyyyyyy.¡± She said happily with a smile, but he didn¡¯t smile at all. But Roselet didn¡¯t mind it because she knew how her uncle Colton was and ran away from there. Colton didn¡¯t see anyone around and assumed his parents must be having a rest after a long journey. He was about to leave from there when someone said, ¡°Listen¡­.¡± He turned around to see a woman wearing her mother¡¯s midi dress. ¡®What¡¯s wrong with his scent and his wolf? He now smells like a human.¡¯ She wondered, looking at him with a frown. Thest thing that she remembered was Calvin leaving in a t-shirt and boxers, and now he was standing in a three-piece suit. ¡°Anyways, I just want to say that¡­ that I am ready to marry you.¡± Colton arched his eyebrow at this statement, wondering who the hell this woman was proposing to him for marriage. * Ethlyn didn¡¯t know what to say more. Just a few hours back, she didn¡¯t want to marry him, but now she would do anything for her daughter, even if it included marrying a person like him. When she saw Calvin didn¡¯t give any reaction to her, she felt like stupid. So, she left from there when she heard Roselet whispering about choctes with Nelina. She had barely made a move toward the kitchen when Colton walked out of the penthouse. ¡®Weird.¡¯ She thought and silently went toward the kitchen. ¡°Can I keep five choctes with me?¡± Roselet asked, holding choctes in her hand. ¡°No. You will end up eating all of them at once.¡± Nelina said. ¡°Now, give me the choctes, or I will tell Calvin.¡± ¡°Pleaseee, Nilu.¡± Roselet pouted, showing her cute face. ¡°Nelina is right, Rose,¡± Ethlyn said in between, on which Roselet looked at her. ¡°Please give her your choctes. Eating a lot of choctes at the same time is not good for teeth.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t understand, Mommy,¡± Roselet responded. ¡°Calvin has a bad habit of stealing my choctes at night.¡± She said. It was true that Calvin used to share his favorite things with Roselet in her presence, but this was also one of the truths that sometimes he used to end up ending all her choctes and chips in her absence. Ethlyn remembered how Calvin started eating chocte that his father got for him like a child. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. He won¡¯t eat your choctes this time.¡± Ethlyn said. Hearing it, Roselet giggled and spoke, ¡°I know my daddy but to prove that I¡¯m right, here goes my choctes.¡± Saying this, she gave her choctes to Nelina. ¡°Let¡¯s go. Help me in changing my clothes.¡± Roselet said, grabbing her hand. She took Ethlyn to her princess-style room. Ethlyn was again surprised to see her big room. The wall was painted with a Frozen theme because Elsa was Roselet¡¯s favorite and blue was her favorite color, unlike pink. ¡°How is my room?¡± ¡°It¡¯s so beautiful,¡± Ethlyn said and was about to touch her wardrobe when Roselet stopped her and made her sit on the bed. ¡°Are you upset because I refused to stay with you leaving Calvin?¡± Roselet asked in concern. ¡°No, dear,¡± Ethlyn said, cupping her face. ¡°In fact, I was thinking over the fact that you asked me in my pack and also in the morning.¡± ¡°Really? You¡¯re thinking of marrying my daddy?¡± ¡®To be with you. I¡¯m ready to do anything.¡¯ Ethlyn thought and nodded her head. ¡°And Love? What about loving my daddy?¡± She asked in excitement. . #TBC 53 ¡°Ahhh!¡± Ethlyn smiled because she was ready for this question. ¡°Rose, baby!! Only the rtionship between parents and pups is the one in which they fall in love with each instantly or at first sight. Other people take some time to fall in love.¡± ¡°How much time?¡± Roselet asked quickly. ¡°I won¡¯t lie to you, but the truth is that I don¡¯t know the answer to this question, sweetheart,¡± Ethlyn said without giving any false hope to her daughter. ¡°Okay, I will ask grandma. After all, she is already in love with Grandpa.¡± Roselet said innocently. ***** On the other side, ¡°Hahahhaha!!! Hahahhaha!!!¡± Calvin wasughing at his father¡¯s state because his mother had just threatened his father to divorce him for the second time. ¡°Shut up!¡± Brandon growled at Calvin and held Sophia¡¯s hand to calm her down. ¡°Mon Amour.¡± ¡°No, Hunter. Enough is enough. I want my daughter, my Lee, now. Because of your anger and your punishment, I ced a stone on my heart and didn¡¯t keep any contact with her but not anymore.¡± Sophia said, taking her hand out of his hand. Once the topic of Calvin and Ethlyn had been ended after Calvin walked out of the penthouse. Sophia couldn¡¯t control herself from asking about Liara to know how she was now from Ethlyn¡¯s parents casually, health-wise, not telling them about the family issue, and that was when Abigail informed her, ¡®Doctor Liara is taking precautions and the extreme care of herself because of early days of pregnancy. I was there because of Ethlyn¡¯s operation when she found out that she was pregnant, and since that day, her mate has had to make sure that she doesn¡¯t stay in the hospital for longer. In fact, she used toe to the hospital only when she was asked to.¡¯ Hearing this, Sophia lost control of herself. ¡°I respected your anger first, but now a mother inside me is ready to kick your ass if you will stop me from meeting my daughter. Hell, I couldn¡¯t sit silently after knowing that my pup is pregnant, and I didn¡¯t check on her, not even once, and will die in regret.¡± Sophia said. ¡°On the top, when I can forgive you for killing my father, then why can¡¯t I forgive my princess?¡± ¡°Talking about Liara?¡± Colton entered the Alpha¡¯s office. ¡°And also about divorce.¡± Calvin joked.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Divorce reminded me who the woman in the penthouse is. She proposed to me for the marriage.¡± Colton said with a frown. Hearing this, Calvin stoppedughing, and a deep frown appeared on his face. Brandon cleared Colton¡¯s confusion by telling him everything. ¡°Just because she is ready. That doesn¡¯t mean I¡¯m ready too.¡± Calvin said. ¡°It¡¯s not hard, too, to convince you. Tell us the price.¡± Colton said, knowing his little brother very well. ¡°Or I guess I already know the price, to keep a condition in front of dad to ept Liara and her mate,¡± Colton said, knowing very well how far his brother could think. ¡°Is Colton right, Calvin?¡± Brandon asked. ¡°Can your smartest pup among all ever be wrong?¡± Calvin asked him, shrugging his shoulder. He had to return his sister to her whole family before the birth of her birth so that his future niece or nephew wouldn¡¯t be derived from the love of his/her family members from his/her mother¡¯s side. ¡°But I need something from my smart brother as well.¡± Saying this, Calvin smirked. ¡°Nooooo¡± Colton shook his head when he realized what Calvin wanted. ¡°I don¡¯t want a mate. I have already decided that she will be with you.¡± ¡°It¡¯s not that bad, you know, but you see, my princess wants her real mommy, so even if I want to, I can¡¯t be with a woman with whom I¡¯m destined to. Because now I might have to marry a rejected Luna.¡± He joked. Little did he know that Ethlyn was listening to everything because he butt-dialed Roselet¡¯s number, and at that moment, Roselet¡¯s phone was in Ethlyn¡¯s hand, checking the photos and video of Roselet of that day in the mountain again. She didn¡¯t want to receive his call, but Roselet was in the washroom, and she asked Ethlyn to pick up the phone and ask him the reason for the call at this moment. ¡®Falling in love with this man? My foot.¡¯ Ethlyn thought, disconnecting the call. * ¡°Hey,¡± Zordan peeped into Calvin¡¯s office to check on him. All of a sudden, his head was smacked with a ss paperweight. ¡°Ouhh!!¡± and his head started bleeding. ¡°Bastard, you ditched my side the moment your mate walked into your life.¡± Calvin hissed. ¡°I know you¡¯re the reason because of which Ethlyn¡¯s parents got my mom¡¯s number, and because of which, mom and dad are here.¡± ¡°I was thinking in Rose¡¯s favor. She needs a mom, mate. And I know your thought about Ethlyn is not so good, but I feel that she is innocent and isn¡¯t the kind of woman you think about her.¡± Zordan spoke after his injury got healed, cing the paperweight on the table. Calvin rolled his eyes. ¡°There is something that you should know about her.¡± He paused before continuing, ¡°Reva¡¯s father told me how her life was turned upside down when the gender of the pup was going to reveal, and also Reva confirmed it.¡± With this, Zordan told Calvin everything that happened with Ethlyn, how shended in Coma and how this incident caused the death of one pup, and another was almost dead, but thanks to Moon Goddess, Roselet survived. ¡°When I came to know about all these things, I couldn¡¯t help but pity Ethlyn. Also, you must have her cries when you were taking Rose, but I saw everything with my own eyes. I bet your reaction and your desperation for Rose wouldn¡¯t be any less than her.¡± . #TBC 54 Calvin sighed before speaking, ¡°I want to meet a sketch artist. The best one.¡± he said, out of nowhere. ¡°Sketch Artist?¡± ¡°Hmm. I need to search for that woman who disappeared that night, and Ethlynnded at her ce.¡± Calvin said, analyzing the whole situation. ¡°So, you believe that Ethlyn is innocent and¡­.¡± ¡°Not this soon, Zordan. But I can¡¯t even let this matter go just like that. I wouldn¡¯t forgive myself if I would find out that whatever Ethlyn said was true.¡± he said and saw Zordan smirking, ¡°Stop thinking whatever your mind is thinking. I¡¯m not interested in solving her issues, but I don¡¯t want anyone to speak rubbish about my daughter¡¯s mother if that is not true.¡± ¡°Oh, okay. I get it. Everything is rted to Rose.¡± Zordan nodded his head and left toplete the work that was assigned to him. ¡®I won¡¯t sit quietly until I find the whole truth. I hope whatever you have told is true, Ethlyn, if anything¡­ anything will lead to my thoughts about you right then that will be thest day in my daughter¡¯s life.¡¯ Calvin thought. Now that he had all the information regarding that night from Ethlyn¡¯s side. He had to search for the missing piece of information. ***** Hourster!! The sketch of that woman from the mating ball was in Calvin¡¯s hand. He recalled meeting her years back, when he had attended the mating ball in search of his mate and also as an Alpha of Blood Moon Pack because all the Alphas had to attend the mating ball if single, then with his Beta or with his Luna to keep their pack member in check. To relieve from the pack by breaking his/her bond with the pack, in case any of their pack members wanted to move out of the pack after finding their mate. In the end, a report used to share with the Alphas giving them how many new pack members were added to the pack and how many of them were left. That night, when Calvin didn¡¯t find his mate anywhere, he thought to enjoy his night with someone who hadn¡¯t found her mate instead of spending time alone because Zordan hade there with his girlfriend. They had decided to stay in a rtionship until any one of them found their mate. That was when Calvin saw that woman sitting at the bar, wearing a golden color bandage dress of sheer fabric. He checked her out from top to bottom before reaching near her. ¡°Hey, beautiful,¡± She looked at Calvin from top to bottom and admired his good looks and, obviously, his masculine body. Calvin chuckled, realizing that she was already impressed by his good looks. ¡°Hii,¡± She said. ¡°You¡¯re?¡± ¡°No one important. But yes, a warrior of the Blood Moon Pack.¡± Calvin didn¡¯t lie to herpletely; he was indeed a warrior, and nor did he tell her the truth about his Alpha position because he wanted the craze among women to be LUNA of the pack. ¡°A very handsome warrior, you¡¯re.¡± ¡°What about you?¡± ¡°Same as you. No one special for now, but hope to be someone important one day.¡± She responded, looking around and then turning her head back to Calvin. ¡°I mean, I¡¯m praying to Moon Goddess to pair me with an Alpha or Beta, you know.¡± She said, shrugging her shoulder. ¡°But until then, I¡¯m single and not ready to mingle.¡± She added, running her hand on Calvin¡¯s shirt. ¡°You¡¯re talking to me, but it looks like you¡¯re looking at someone else,¡± Calvin said, grabbing her waist and pulling her in his arms. ¡°Really? I gave you that vibe?¡± She giggled, running her finger sensually. ¡°I was making sure that my wolf doesn¡¯t smell any mouth-watering smell.¡± Calvin looked around in search of someone better than her, but unfortunately, whoever he found a better choice was with someone already. ¡°Now, don¡¯t take revenge on me by looking around.¡± She spoke, making him look toward her. ¡®Only she has a figure; otherwise, she is so irritating.¡¯ Calvin thought, looking at her. ¡°She is beautiful, Calvin.¡± Calvin was taken aback, hearing Roselet¡¯s voice. He looked to the side and saw Roselet standing there, looking at a sketch. He then looked at someone else standing near the door, her mommy, who was throwing daggers from her eyes, thinking of him as a shameless person. ¡°Who is she?¡± Roselet asked. Calvin rolled that sketch and kept it away. Then he picked her up and made her sit on hisp. ¡°Love, now you should stop entering my office without taking permission. I¡¯m your Alpha as well, along with your best friend and your daddy, okay?¡± ¡°Okay.¡± Roselet pouted. ¡°By the way, who was she?¡± ¡°She is someone who I¡¯m searching for. So, from now onwards, you¡¯re also on a mission to search for her and inform your Alpha immediately if you find anything about it. Did you get that Alpha Heir?¡±Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Yes, Alpha.¡± Roselet nodded her head. ¡®And mom and dad told me that he is not a womanizer anymore. A person like can never change.¡¯ Ethlyn thought. ¡®Thank Moon Goddess that there is a conditioner to ¡®FALL IN LOVE¡¯ before marriage by Rose. And I will use that time to show his real face and what kind of man he is, and my daughter definitely shouldn¡¯t be with him. Who knows he would even like to have Rose when she will grow old?¡¯ That alone thought scared her. And that was when she observed that Calvin had to make Roselet sit in hisp. She had watched a lot of movies and even read books about how a single father assaulted his daughter. One was from her favorite book ¡®HOPELESS¡¯ by Collen Hoover. . #TBC 55 ¡°Now, tell me, why are you here?¡± Calvin asked lovingly, nuzzling ¡°Mommy told me that Grandpa Christian and Grandma Abby, along with Reva, are at Zordy¡¯s house. So, I¡¯m going there with her because she doesn¡¯t know the house of Zordy.¡± Roselet replied Calvin¡¯s jaw tightened when he heard this. ¡°Tell me if anyone misbehaves with you, and don¡¯t dare to lie to me, or wait, let me send Lemi with you,¡± Calvin said, not trusting those people. Even though they were at Zordan¡¯s ce, it wasn¡¯t that Zordan was at his home at this moment. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Calvin. Mommy will be with me, and she promised me today that she won¡¯t let anyone hurt me. ANYONE.¡± Roselet said with a smile and looked at Ethlyn, who was still standing near the door. ¡°Come inside, Mommy. Why are you standing there? The future Alpha of the pack is giving you permission toe in.¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine here, dear.¡± Ethlyn politely refused. ¡°Oh, okay.¡± Roselet didn¡¯t force her and looked at Calvin. ¡°Can I go, Daddddddyyyyy? Pleeeeassseee.¡± ¡°Sure. Just take of yourself.¡± Calvin kissed her cheek and let her go with Ethlyn. * ¡®Alpha, we have bad news.¡¯ Zordan mind linked. ¡®We found seven dead bodies of pups who were from our pack with a note from hunters.¡¯ Calvin quickly shifted and reached the ce where Zordan found the body. It was a little away from the pack border. He closed his eyes, seeing the head of the pups hanging with one tree and their bodies nailed to another tree. ¡®Game of Death began¡¯ It was written on the trees around them. ¡°Alpha¡± Zordan gave a letter to Calvin. Calvin read the letter and fumed in anger, reading it. ¡°What is written inside it?¡± Since hunters had used some type of herbs or magic because of which, the letter could be read by only that person whose name was written on the top. That was why for other people, it was nothing but a nk page. ¡°They want to repeat history because by wiping our pack.¡± Calvin hissed. ¡°Make necessary arrangements for the funeral, Zordan,¡± Calvin said, not telling theplete truth because it was written in the letter that they wanted Ethlyn or they would repeat the history. Because the previous night, the hunter whom Ethlyn had killed was the son of the hunter¡¯s son. He demanded Ethlyn, or he would turn the whole pack in the graveyard. ¡°But what happened all of a sudden, Alpha? You and the hunter¡¯s leader had gone into a peace of treaty. Hadn¡¯t you? Then why do they want war out of nowhere?¡± Alisha asked, not understanding the sudden change in the situation. ¡°Because I killed one of his membersst night,¡± Calvin replied because he knew this question would be asked by a lot of pack members. He didn¡¯t want to involve Ethlyn¡¯s name because he knew that pack members would start hating her as for the loss of all the seven pups, but their feeling toward him wouldn¡¯t be the same. ¡°And you did that to protect that uninvited guest.¡± Alisha sneered, giving the pack members around them that who was the real culprit behind it. ¡°Get the work done, Alisha.¡± Calvin glowed at her. ¡°There are a lot of things that we have to do immediately rather than wasting time in thinking about the things that have been already done,¡± he added. ¡°The first thing is to increase the security of the pack border and make sure that no one. I repeat, no one should leave the pack after seven in the evening.¡± ¡°Alpha, do your brother can help?¡± One of the warriors asked. ¡°No. Involving him in all this mess means adding an enemy because, duties-wise, he is a hunter before my brother. Also, it¡¯s not easy to calm him down after he picks up his sword. He ends up killing everyone. EVERYONE.¡± Calvin mumbled, recalling how Colton almost got in control of the sword. He almost killed Brandon once, but Sophia controlled him by pping him hard on his face. Though no one med him for that incident but it was thest day when Colton stayed near any of his family members. He sometimes used to visit everyone and disappear again. ***** On the other side, ¡°Rose, dear!! Does your daddy always make up you sit in thep?¡± Ethlyn asked Roselet on the way to Zordan¡¯s house because he didn¡¯t use to stay in the pack house. ¡°Yes. And sometimes, if he doesn¡¯t, then I run into hisp.¡± Roselet replied with a smile, talking about Calvin. Ethlyn spent the whole day with Roselet after her school, and 95% of the part of the conversation was all about her daddy. ¡°Oh, okay. And what is your daily routine from morning to night?¡± She asked, trying to find something against Roselet. ¡°Daily routine. Hmmm.. Daddy wakes me up after hees from training with a lot of kisses and loves. He says that I take around half an hour to wake up, but he never gets mad or gets irritated or scolds me for this. Sometimes, he carries me to the washroom and keeps me under the shower.¡± Roselet giggled. ¡°What?¡± ¡°Yes, it¡¯s so much. Sometimes, he throws me in the pool when I act to sleep for more than half an hour.¡± ¡°Moon Goddess!!¡± Ethlyn eximed. ¡°What was he thinking by doing this? To kill you?¡± ¡°Chill, Mommy. I have known swimming since I¡¯m two years old.¡± Roseletughed, seeing Ethlyn¡¯s reaction. And then she continued again, ¡°Daddy can never think of hurting me. NEVER.¡±N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°I¡¯m d that your daddy loves you that much,¡± Ethlyn mumbled with a fake smile, still not ready to ept that Calvin was really that good person. . #TBC * 56 ¡°And daddy ever tried to force you to do something that you didn¡¯t want to do? Even you would have cried to make him stop, but he didn¡¯t stop nor listen to your request.¡± She asked. ¡°Yes. A lot of time.¡± Roseletined. ¡°Even my pout, request, and cries can¡¯t change his mind.¡± ¡°When? What does he do you?¡± Ethlyn asked. ¡°At least once or twice a week, Mommy.¡± Hearing this, Ethlyn fumed in anger and was just waiting for Roselet toplete her sentence, and then that was it. ¡°Mommy, will you make him stop doing all those things to me?¡± ¡°Of course, sweetheart!!! Just tell me that what does he do you?¡± Ethlyn asked in concern, seeing Roselet¡¯s long face. ¡°Daddy force me to do¡­ YOGA.¡± Roseletined. Ethlyn didn¡¯t know how to react to this. ¡°He said that my official training would start when I will be eight years old, but he makes me do workouts in the Gym.¡± Roselet filed her secondin in front of her mommy.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°He makes me eat green veggies even though I don¡¯t want to eat them. Even if I cry to convince him, but he doesn¡¯t listen to me.¡± She said, filing a thirdined against her daddy. ¡± One after the other, Roselet shared all the childishints with Ethlyn, like ¡®Calvin doesn¡¯t allow her to eat ice cream more than two scoops, he doesn¡¯t let her sleep without brushing her teeth whenever she feelszy, he forcefully sends her to school every day without any bunk, he doesn¡¯t let her watch cartoon tillte night, and many more.¡¯ Hearing all these, Ethlyn couldn¡¯t get mad at Calvin even if she wanted to because all those things indicate that Calvin had been the best father for Roselet. If he spoiled Roselet in some of the things, then he did act strictly like a mother for Roselet¡¯s betterment. ¡®Maybe he is a shameless man, but he is the best father.¡¯ Ethlyn thought, realizing how wrong she was about him. ¡°Mommy, you will make him stop doing all those things to me, right?¡± Roselet asked hopefully. ¡°You can¡¯t say NO, because you said ¡®of course, sweetheart.''¡± She added, mimicking Ethlyn. Roselet couldn¡¯t imagine her life without any restrictions. She could bunk the school whenever she wanted to, and she did have to eat green veggies only, junk food, and many more things, but all her dreams were crushed when Ethlyn spoke. ¡°No, dear. Your daddy is absolutely right in all this matter.¡± Ethlyn said, shaking her head. Her heart melted when she saw Roselet¡¯s long face and her puppy eyes, but she just couldn¡¯t spoil Eoselet by supporting her in those things that weren¡¯t right. ¡®Alpha Calvin already thinks of me as a characterless woman. If I will start supporting Roselet¡¯s these requests, then he will tag me as an irresponsible mother and throw me out of Roselet¡¯s life. Because I¡¯m positive that he is not dying to marry me, and just like me, he will be looking for a chance to kick me out of his and Rose¡¯s life.¡¯ She thought. ¡°But you said that you will.¡± ¡°I thought you would say that ¡®Alpha Calvin scold you for unnecessary things or even hit you.¡¯ Because daddies are generally strict ones, you know.¡± Ethlyn tried to make Roselet understand. ¡°But hearing yourints, I feel you¡¯re blessed with the best father in the world.¡± ¡°That¡¯s true, Mommy. Calvin is the best.¡± Roselet said cheerfully. ¡°Even though I have a lot ofints from him, it seems like it¡¯s my destiny to live all my life with thoseints.¡± She faked her sadness, trying to manipte Ethlyn for onest time. ¡°If Moon Goddess has sent me as his daughter to bear all these tortures and a mommy who doesn¡¯t support me, then it¡¯s fine.¡± She said dramatically. ¡°Drama queen!!¡± Ethlyn eximed, on which Roselet started giggling. ¡°If you have so much from your daddy, then will you change him if Moon Goddess gives you a choose another daddy?¡± ¡°Nooooo,¡± Roselet yelled quickly, shaking her head. ¡°NEVER. I love my daddy. I won¡¯t change him even when I get a chance to choose a daddy who won¡¯t stop me for anything.¡± She said. ¡°By the way, mommy, why were you asking all those questions?¡± Roselet asked. ¡°Nothing. Just to know your daddy in a better way.¡± Ethlyn replied, to which Roselet didn¡¯t question anything next. ¡®I will tell Calvin that mommy was trying to know him in a better way. Even he should do that.¡¯ Roselet thought innocently. Little did she know that her daddy would be a walking volcano ready to burn her mommypletely after learning about this conversation. * The environment of the pack was immediately changed after that incident. Though the security of the pack had been increased along with the number of warriors in patrol but what damages had been done couldn¡¯t be recovered. Calvin couldn¡¯t bring the pups from the deathbed, nor could he understand the exact pain of losing a pup, but he got goosebumps when Lemieux informed him that Roselet used to y with those pups on a daily basis in the evening. Today she didn¡¯t go to y with them because she was busy spending time with her mommy. Pups used to run out of the pack border while ying hide and seek or other games for years and had nothing happened to them, so no one had any idea of this attack. Pups who ran out of the pack for hiding disappeared first, at first a pup searching them thought they all hid at some search spot, but when he couldn¡¯t find them even after an hour, he returned to the pack, saying that he didn¡¯t want to y the game anymore. * #TBC . A/N: One of you asked for lovey-dovey parts. Please wait for a while; you will get it. 57 The warriors started getting worried when the pups didn¡¯t return even after an hour more. So, after discussing it between themselves, a group of warriors left the pack in search of them and was shocked to find them in this state in the hunter¡¯s area. Lemieux went and brought Roselet with him at the time of the funeral because those pups were her friends as well as she should keep learning how an Alpha acts and behaves at the time of the funeral by watching him. ¡°Calvin,¡­ if.. if I would ha.. have gone to¡­ y wit.. with them then thi¡­thiss wouldn¡¯t have hap¡­happened.¡± She said, crying bitterly. ¡°Be.. because Lemi s.. stays near.. near me.¡± She added, hugging Calvin. ¡°Don¡¯t me yourself, love.¡± He whispered softly, caressing her back. ¡°I know my daughter would have gone to y with her friends if she would have any idea that this could have happened. So that Lemi would have been you to protect everyone.¡± Roselet stopped crying, listening to this, and nodded her head, indicating that he was right. She would have done the same and then looked at the parents of those pups who were crying too.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Calvin put me down,¡± Roselet said, on which Calvin did the same and was her daughter walking toward her other friends. She stopped them from crying, too, and then walked near those parents with all her friends. ¡°Mom, please don¡¯t cry.¡± She said, wiping the tears of Alexia¡¯s mother. ¡°My daddy won¡¯t kill everyone who did this to my brothers and sisters.¡± She added, hugging Alexia¡¯s mother. Eva, Alexia¡¯s mother, hugged her back and started crying, holding her. Roselet¡¯s friends copied her and tried to calm down the mother and fathers of their parents. Ethlyn couldn¡¯t help, but her respect for Calvin as father increased a lot in her heart for raising their daughter in the best way. She could bet that even Roselet¡¯s maternal Grandparents couldn¡¯t raise Roselet this well. *** Roselet stared at her ck clothes. She used to love wearing ck, but today she knew she had got ready in ck to attend the funeral of the pack. ¡°Ready?¡± Ethlyn asked her, to which she pointed toward the zip in the frock. ¡°Where is Calvin?¡± She asked. ¡°Your daddy is busy, dear,¡± Ethlyn replied. ¡°An Alpha has a lot of things to do in such a situation.¡± ¡°Oh,¡± Roselet mumbled, nodding her head. After a while, they reached the ground where they had asked to arrive. ¡°Evening, everyone. I wish we were meeting tonight under a different situation.¡± Calvin spoke, and his voice rang all over the area because of the pin drop silent. He looked at the faces of all the pack members, gathering strength to continue because it was the hardest thing that he had to face as Alpha. He had lost a lot of warriors but never did pups targeted. ¡°Seven innocent pups of the pack are brutally killed by the hunters. Although they were just pups and didn¡¯t contribute to pack development, but it had a huge impact on us because they were the future of the pack. We lost nieces, nephews, friends, sons, daughters, granddaughters, and grandsons that can never be reced or forgotten. Tonight, we will bid them a final goodbye and pray to Moon Goddess to give them the peace they deserve. We will also pray to send them in one or the other form.¡± With this, he bowed his head slightly, respecting the soul of the pups. Following him, everyone did the same, and then one by one father of those pups came forward and ced the bodies in mes. Once again, the cries of the families filled the silence. This was the second time when Calvin was facing the same situation,st time, he managed to sign the peace of treaty with the hunters because he wasn¡¯t powerful to defeat thempletely, neither were they powerful even to wipe out the whole pack, not when Calvin had Caroline, a witch by his side. But it was the incident of twelve years back. All the wolves howled loudly for a long time, expressing their pain. ***** ¡°We have to find the exact location of the hunters, and this time, I won¡¯t be signing any peace of treaty but just wipe them from our life,¡± Calvin said in front of one of his best spies. ¡°They can¡¯te inside our pack because of the shield around the pack made by Caroline, but that part can only keep us safe; it won¡¯t sort the problem.¡± He said and pointed toward the map. ¡°This whole area belongs to hunters.¡± ¡°You need to enter their area, and the fact that you are human is the benefit to you. I don¡¯t care what method you will use. Act to fall in love with a woman who is a hunter if required, but I need each and every information of that hunter¡¯s group.¡± ¡°You¡¯re the best in your work, David, so I won¡¯t suggest how to do your work, but just don¡¯t end up making any woman pregnant to get this job done,¡± Calvin warned. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, Alpha. I give you my words; this matter will be permanently solved before Christmas.¡± David Fincher, a human born from a human father and werewolf mother, was used to being treated weak and useless all his life just because he was a human until he realized that even the fact that he was a human was a boon in a lot of cases. ¡°Hmm. Just don¡¯t get caught.¡± Calvin advised, and once he left, Calvin looked at Zordan, who was looking at the sketch of that woman. ¡°You have to scan that sketch and send it to the Beta of the pack all over the whole,¡± Calvin said, on which Zordan red at him. ¡°Like seriously? You should at least have asked her name or from the pack she was.¡± Zordan muttered, looking at that woman. . #TBC 58 ¡°I didn¡¯t have to settle with her. It was supposed to be just a one-night stand.¡± Calvin reasoned. ¡°Now, please get this work done as soon as possible,¡± he added. ¡°Hmm. By the way, Mom & Dad are returning to the pack tomorrow. And if I¡¯m not wrong, then they might throw a small family party at home the day after tomorrow. I mean, dad would have thrown a big party for Reva¡¯s arrival, but because of this incident, he wouldn¡¯t.¡± ¡°You have to be there by the positions of my brother as well as my Alpha. So that you can add Reva to the pack officially.¡± Zordan said, even though Calvin would surelye. ¡°By the way, are you going to add Ethlyn to the pack as well?¡± ¡°Of course NOT. Hearing her name, I wonder where she is staying tonight. Your house, right? After all, she is your sister-inw.¡± Calvin asked. ¡°I doubt she would have left Rose¡¯s side,¡± Zordan said and checked the time. ¡°Good night now. My mate will be waiting for me.¡± ¡°Yeah! Yeah! Good night!!¡± Calvin checked the time, and it was one at night. He hissed, realizing that Roselet must be waiting for dinner. He quickly left his office to reach his daughter. But when he entered the penthouse, all the lights were off. He couldn¡¯t help but feel sad when he realized that Roselet wasn¡¯t waiting for him. But she used to wait till ten or eleven at night. He was reallyte tonight. ¡®I hope she would have eaten her dinner properly.¡¯ He mentally thought and canceled his n to eat dinner without her, but that was when the door of Roselet¡¯s room opened silently, and Ethlyn walked out of it. ¡®Calm down, Calvin. Calm down.¡¯ He mentally spoke and went into his room to freshen up. After a while, he came back quickly to check on his love, who was sleeping peacefully, opening her mouth. ¡®I¡¯m sorry, sweetheart. I didn¡¯t join you at the time of dinner, but daddy was busy tonight.¡¯ He apologized and kissed her forehead. He tried to sleep but couldn¡¯t because he wanted to know whether she had eaten her dinner properly or not. When he couldn¡¯t control himself, he dialed Nelina¡¯s number, and it was switched off. He left Roselet¡¯s room to knock the door of Nelina¡¯s door. ¡°She ate her dinner properly,¡± Ethlyn spoke, who was in the kitchen and was taking out the warm food from the microwave. ¡°On a condition that you will also have your dinner properly or from next time, she wouldn¡¯t eat anything.¡± Calvin opened his mouth to say that he wasn¡¯t interested in eating dinner, but he controlled his mouth. He knew Roselet would ask about it tomorrow morning. ¡°You don¡¯t have to act like my wife already.¡± Calvin hissed when he saw Ethlyn bringing warm food to the table. ¡°I¡¯m not interested in bing your wife. It¡¯s another condition of Rose that I should be with you, helping you in serving food and sitting beside you while you will have your dinner because you don¡¯t like eating your dinner alone.¡± Ethlyn hissed back.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°Lie to her that you were with mest night,¡± Calvin said, stopping her from serving his food. ¡°Why will I? If you have any problem, then you can tell her that you ate dinner.¡± She fired back and served his food. Both red at each other for a while, and then they realized what they were doing. * After dinner!! ¡°Where the hell are you going?¡± Calvin asked when Ethlyn started going toward Roselet¡¯s room. ¡°In my daughter¡¯s room.¡± ¡°Sure. Come on!! I will be sleeping with her. I won¡¯t mind sharing a bed with you as well. After all, it¡¯s not the first time when we will sleep together.¡± Calvin said sarcastically. ¡°Youuuu¡­¡± ¡°What did you do before staying here at night? Your father gifted this penthouse to me, huh?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t you dare involve my father in the conversation,¡± Ethlyn growled, and Calvin showed a glimpse of Roselet in her. Just like her mother, she couldn¡¯t tolerate anyone speaking about her father. He sighed before speaking again. ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened because she didn¡¯t see thating from his mouth. ¡°I think we should talk.¡± He said and walked toward the couch, signaling her to join him. ¡°I heard everything that you told dad.¡± He paused before continuing. ¡°But my thoughts about you are still the same.¡± Ethlyn¡¯s jaw clenched hearing it, but she thought to speak only after he would finish himself. ¡°But at the same time, I don¡¯t want to ignore the words of the mother of my pup, who is saying again and again that whatever that night was a trap. That¡¯s why I have started the investigation.¡± Calvin said, surprising Ethlyn again. No one! No one had thought about it. Never her parents nor Nathan. So, it really meant a lot to her. ¡°It¡¯s already toote for tonight, so tomorrow, I would like to know the story before you lose consciousness. Everything that you can recall about that night, okay?¡± Ethlyn nodded her head. ¡°Word, Miss.¡± ¡°Yes, Alpha Calvin.¡± Ethlyn said before asking, ¡°Thank you so much.¡± She spoke with a smile. ¡°You don¡¯t have to pass a smile. I promise I will wipe it when I will find out that my thoughts about you are right and forget about staying anywhere near my daughter after that.¡± Calvin said rudely before leaving from there. ¡°By the way, you can stay in thest room in the row.¡± ¡®I shouldn¡¯t stoop so low that when if she woulde out clean. I would have no words to apologize.¡¯ He mentally thought, entering Roselet¡¯s room. . #TBC 59 ¡®He is rude and shameless, but he is not bad.¡¯ Ethlyn thought, walking toward the room that Calvin had allotted her. ¡®Maybe he has his own reasons to find the truth, but I¡¯m happy with the thought that he is doing something that no one did for me in all these years.¡¯ She smiled at that thought, and immediately she recalled his words. ¡®You don¡¯t have to pass a smile.¡¯ but this time, she didn¡¯t stop smiling. ** Next Morning!! ¡°Wake up, love,¡± Calvin said, tickling Roselet. She giggled and tried to her face with the pillow, but Calvin snatched all her pillows and then turned off the AC. ¡°Urrgghh,¡± She groaned, feeling hot. ¡°Come on, babe!! Wake up.¡± ¡°Five minutes more, daddddddyyyy.¡± ¡°You¡¯re saying the same from thest twenty minutes. Wake up, or I will throw you in the pool.¡± Calvin threatened, on which Roselet shook her bum, signaling NO. ¡°I was thinking of spending some time with you as I couldn¡¯tst night. But never mind if you don¡¯t want to spend time with me.¡± Calvin faked his sadness, and hearing him, Roselet quickly sat on the bed. ¡°That¡¯s wrong. I¡¯m ready to spend time with you anytime.¡± Roselet replied and quickly sat in Calvin¡¯sp. ¡°I love you, daddy.¡± ¡°I love you too, my love.¡± Calvin kissed her forehead. ¡°Did you have your dinner properlyst night? What did you eat? How was your day yesterday? Anything new happened in school?¡± Calvin asked her the question which he used to ask at night. Even Roselet used to do the same. Roselet started narrating everything in the excitement that she learned in school. ¡°Calvin, I¡¯m learning archery in school. I can¡¯t wait to use the real one so that I can also aim at our enemies to kill them.¡± She said in excitement. Calvin heard her patiently without telling her that things weren¡¯t that easy in the real world. Aiming at moving objects is too difficult than non-moving. She then told him how her Uncle Colton received her after school and brought a lot of choctes for her. She then told him everything that she did with Ethlyn in the noon. ¡°Calvin, Do you know that mommy was trying to know you in a better wayst evening by asking me a lot of questions about you?¡± ¡°Really?¡± ¡°Yes!!¡± Roselet nodded her head. ¡°I think you should do the same to know her better. I¡¯m sure that Grandpa Brandon would have told you both to get married, wouldn¡¯t he?¡± ¡°How do youe to know about that?¡± Calvin questioned, looking at her suspiciously. When his parents arrived here, she had already reached school. And his parents barely met her for a while before leaving because his mother had to meet Liara as soon as possible. ¡°Mom & dad talked with you in front of me while leaving the pack, and I didn¡¯t remember them telling anything to you.¡± Roselet started looking around on which he made her look at him. ¡°Tell me, Rose. It was you who asked him to say so, weren¡¯t you?¡± ¡°Yes, daddy.¡± She whispered with a pout. ¡°I dialed Grandma Sophia yesterday to know how people fall in love from your phone, and that was when I came to know that they areing here, and that was when I convinced Grandpa Brandon to¡­¡± She didn¡¯tplete her sentence, just hid her face below his chest. ¡°But I didn¡¯t see her number in the calling history,¡± Calvin asked in confusion. ¡°I deleted it because they said that ¡®it¡¯s a surprise¡¯ for you. Sorry, dadddyyyy.¡± She replied, to which Calvin didn¡¯t scold her and spoke after a minute. ¡°Force Marriage doesn¡¯t have long life, love. Give your parents some time, okay?¡± ¡°I¡¯m just scared that what if you will find your fated mate and¡­. won¡¯t choose mommy,¡± Roselet muttered, thinking about the third person between her parents. ¡°I sound selfish? Don¡¯t I?¡± ¡°You won¡¯t.¡± Calvin shook his head. ¡°Even Colton and I wanted our parents together and a normal family like other pups. So, you¡¯re no different. But give us time, don¡¯t rush things.¡± ¡°I promise. I will wait for you both to fall in love.¡± Roselet agreed. ¡°By the way, what was your mommy asking about me yesterday?¡±All content ? N/.?vel/Dr/ama.Org. ¡°Actually, she was asking that¡­¡± The moment Roselet finished, she observed Keanu¡¯s eyes. ¡°Keanu? Why are you here at this moment?¡± She asked the wolf of her daddy. ¡°Nothing. You and freshen up. I will send Nelina to your room.¡± He said calmly in front of the princess who had the power to tame him. ¡°Okay, daddy Keanu.¡± She said and kissed him before jumping from the bed. The moment she went into the washroom, Keanu jumped from the bed as well to find her as soon as possible but not before closing the door. ¡®How dare she?¡¯ Calvin thought by sitting in the backseat of his mind. ¡°Ethlyn,¡± Keanu roared loudly. Ethlyn came running from the kitchen after hearing the same dangerous sinister growl on her lips. It wasn¡¯t that she had heard this growl for the first time, but she knew that she was wrong this time, so she shivered, seeing the anger in his eyes. Her wolf screamed in fear, but her feet were glued to the floor, stopping her from moving even an inch. She wasn¡¯t sure, but she almost had guessed what would have made him this angry. ¡°Ethlyn!! Run!!¡± Nelina yelled, sensing the Alpha¡¯s anger. She had seen the anger of both brothers; she knew that they wouldn¡¯t calm down until they ended up killing their prey. . #TBC . A/N: Sorry I didn¡¯t post anything yesterday. I was a little disturbed after my argument with my mother, because of which no idea was clicking in my mind. 60 Keanu ran toward her like an animal using Calvin¡¯s human legs and his hands and jumped at her., mming her on the floor as hard as he could. Nelina could imagine a situation simr to The Twilight Saga: New Moon when Edward¡¯s head was mmed into the floor by a vampire while saving Be. ¡°How dare you?¡± he growled at her face and choked her. His eyesnded on the floor, which was covered by her blood, but it didn¡¯t calm him down. He couldn¡¯t understand what he had done, because of which this woman thought something so low about him. He was a womanizer but not a rapist. Hell, he could never think something like that for any woman. In fact, he stopped sleeping with underage after he turned twenty-one years old. ¡°Alpha, she is Rose¡¯s mommy,¡± Nelina said, standing away from Calvin, not risking going near him. Keanu¡¯s anger started slowing down upon hearing this. He wanted to break her neck and end her chapter then and there, but he couldn¡¯t. And he knew why the fact that she was his princess¡¯s mommy. He just couldn¡¯t hurt the way he wanted. He observed her fighting for breath; her hands were wrapped around his wrist, trying to move his wrist away from her neck. ¡°I¡¯m.. so.. sorry, Al.. Alpha Calv.. in.¡± She apologized in pain. She knew what she did was not easy to forgive any father, and she was sorry for that. Keanu stopped choking her but now dug his ws into her skin, making her bleed more. The moment he thinks of treating her with the respect that she deserves as a mother of his pup, she ends up ruining everything. Keanu left her neck and moved back, standing on his feet, giving control to Calvin, who was equally pissed at her. ¡°Nelina, Rose is in the washroom. Go near her.¡± Calvin said, still ring at Ethlyn, who was healing herself. ¡°Okay.¡±Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. After healing herself, Ethlyn, too, stood up on her feet and looked at the floor. The marble on the floor had been broken into pieces, where her head was mmed, and her blood was all over the floor. She touched her hair; it was wet because of blood, and so did her clothes. ¡°I know your anger for me is valid for me, but you can¡¯t me me either. I judged you on the basis of your previous track record.¡± Ethlyn spoke after a while, pissing Calvin off even more. ¡°Don¡¯t give me that look, okay? You did the same to me, judged me by observing the circumstances.¡± She spat. ¡°You can assume me a slut and whore, but I can¡¯t assume you as a father who might have assaulted his own daughter? Huh?¡± She asked, getting equally angry. Calvin wanted to answer her back, but he couldn¡¯t because he knew, just like she was showing him the mirror. He called her names without knowing her well, and if she did the same, then how could she be wrong and he was right? ¡°I won¡¯t say that I didn¡¯t make any mistake because I know that I did. And I¡¯m really sorry for that. I know you won¡¯t believe me for what I¡¯m going to say, but I¡¯m d that my daughter is blessed to have a father like you.¡± And just like Ethlyn said, Calvin didn¡¯t believe her. Moreover, he sensed two scents approaching his penthouse. ¡°Zordan ising here with your father.¡± He said. Hearing this, Ethlyn¡¯s face paled; she quickly wanted to clean the blood on the floor because her father would surely attack Calvin for hurting her. Just like an angry father attacked her. Moon Goddess, attacking an Alpha was a crime, and Calvin was no Nathan who would just lock him in the cell; he might kill Christian then and there. ¡°If dad gets mad at you, then please attack him back.¡± She requested Calvin, who didn¡¯t react. She didn¡¯t have much time to clean the blood, change her clothes, and wash her head. She was so dead. ¡®What if dad will take me from here, away from my daughter, after this incident? No!! No, No, NO!!! I can¡¯t let that happen¡¯, She got worried thinking all this while Calvin smirked, crossing his arms around his chest. No father would let his daughter anywhere near a man hurt her. ¡°Ethlyn,¡± There came a concerned voice of Christian. All of a sudden, he started feeling restless a few minutes before when Zordan informed Reva that he and the whole pack could sense Alpha¡¯s anger and wondered what anyone would have done to piss him off to this extent. Christian was sure that Alpha Calvin¡¯s anger was for Ethlyn, and knowing this, he just couldn¡¯t sit quietly and ask Zordan to take Ethlyn, praying in his mind that whatever he was thinkinge out to be wrong, but his eyes widened when he smelt blood and then looked at Ethlyn¡¯s clothes and hair wet with her blood. ¡°Ethlyn¡­¡± He quickly reached near her to check on her. ¡°I¡¯m fine, dad. Cinder healed me already.¡± She started exining. Christian tried to reach Calvin, who was grinning, teasing him silently, but Ethlyn was quick toe in between them. ¡°Dad, please calm down. It was my fault. I pissed him so much that he lost control of his anger.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t try to defend¡­¡± ¡°I¡¯m not, dad. I was indeed something that could have pissed anyone. If I will tell you, then even you will scold me, please, calm down!! Pleasee!!¡± She requested while Calvin showed him tongue like a child. Calvin walked into the kitchen to prepare breakfast and lunch for Roselet. ¡°Then why was the need to invite your death on your Ethlyn?¡± Christian scolded, checking her head, but it was already healed but looking at the floor and the blood, he understood that Alpha Calvin was in the mood to kill his daughter for sure. . #TBC 61 ¡°Come with me; you¡¯re not safe here.¡± He said and grabbed Ethlyn¡¯s wrist to take her with him, but she didn¡¯t budge. ¡°I¡¯m not going anywhere, dad. Not leaving my daughter.¡± ¡°And I won¡¯t leave my daughter here.¡± ¡°I wish you would have thought the same thing while leaving my daughter near him.¡± Saying this, she pulled her wrist from her father¡¯s grip. ¡°I¡¯m staying here, and that¡¯s final. I have to go and change before Roselet sees me in this state.¡± With this, she went into the room she had stayed inst night. She had already brought her clothes from Reva¡¯s home in the morning. It was true that she didn¡¯te here with anything, but when Reva and her parents came here, they brought her necessary belongings with them.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. Meanwhile, Zordan mind linked one of the Omega to get the mess clean. ¡°How can you treat someone else daughter like this when you, too, have a daughter?¡± Christian asked when Calvin was preparing an omelette for breakfast. ¡°I thought you would thank me for not killing your daughter,¡± Calvin said sarcastically, adding fuel to his anger. He kept ring at Calvin, with anger and rage growing in his eyes. ¡°The only reason I¡¯m silent is that I¡¯m responsible for Ethlyn¡¯s situation; otherwise, I would have killed or died in the practice of killing you.¡± Christian hissed. ¡°Really? Do you think you can kill me? Beta blood?¡± Calvin mocked him. ¡°Go ahead, try your strength. We will see on your own who will end up killing whom,¡± he added. ¡°If I could, then I would have killed both you and your mates of yours who are a shame on the name of parents.¡± Calvin hissed while preparing Egg mayonnaise and lettuce bap for Rose¡¯s lunch box now. ¡°Yes, you both are the reason for Ethlyn¡¯s situation. Only if your mate had supported her, then both the pups of Ethlyn would have been alive. Only if you have know how to control your mate, then she wouldn¡¯t have started dancing on your head. She suggested getting rid of Rose, and you did the same. What are you? A man without backbone?¡± ¡°I..¡± ¡°I¡¯m in no mood to listen to your stupid words!!¡± Calvin shut him before continuing, ¡°I have no respect for those people because of which one of my pups is not between us. I will deal with Alpha Nathanter about it. I would ask what kind of love he had for Ethlyn that he left her in her most crucial time?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t understand what kind of love is that. My sister, Liara, went against everyone to be with her mate. My brother-inw, Artemis, left his Alpha position to be with his mate. My dad passed the type test and transferred all his properties to be with my mom. This is LOVE and MATE BOND.¡± ¡°Not the one which Alpha Nathan or Ethlyn shared.¡± Calvin pointed out. ¡°I pped Ethlyn that night in front of him, and all he could do was speak. If I would have been at Alpha Nathan¡¯s ce, then I would have attacked even God if he would have pped my mate. Because only I own the right to do anything with my mate, and that too privately.¡± ¡°Because if I won¡¯t respect her in front of others and protect her dignity in public, then who will?¡± Calvin questioned him. ¡°This hunter thing¡­. This is happening because of your daughter because she ended up killing the son of the hunter¡¯s leader and wants her in return to end the war. I¡¯m sure Alpha Nathan would have sacrificed the life of one pack member to keep the others safe. Even that pack member would have been his mate; that¡¯s what his love for his mate is, weak.¡± Calvin spat. ¡°A part of me wants to approach you and Alpha Nathan, who is acting to be Ethlyn¡¯s wellwisher now, and p both of you. I mean, in thest five years, you didn¡¯t care to find out what exactly happened with your daughter? Instead, you or your mate or whoever he or she was, wiped the proof.¡± Serving breakfast on the te, he started leaving to make Roselet eat the breakfast in the room today. He was positive that Nelina would have held her in the room to avoid seeing all this mess. ¡°You¡­ you¡¯re not giving Ethlyn to them, are you?¡± Christian asked in fear. Ethlyn wasn¡¯t even Calvin¡¯s pack member, so he could easily give her to them. ¡°I won¡¯t. I can¡¯t. After all, she and her wolf is the reason because of why Rose is alive.¡± Calvin left from there, assuring Christian that nothing would happen to Ethlyn, but he couldn¡¯t stop himself from getting worried for Ethlyn. ¡®Oh, that woman is the reason behind everything that happened to those innocent pups.¡¯ The Omega cleaning the floor thought after hearing all the conversation. Even his brother¡¯s son was killed by the hunters yesterday, and the fact that it wasn¡¯t Alpha¡¯s mistake, but an outsider¡¯s mistake, was something that had filled his heart with rage toward Ethlyn. * ¡°Calvin, why are we having our breakfast here?¡± Roselet asked while munching her food. ¡°Because the marble near the kitchen area has been broken, and I have asked someone to clean and fix that area as soon as possible.¡± ¡°Oooo,¡± Roselet made her sound before asking, ¡°Where is Mommy?¡± ¡°I heard her speaking to her father that she was going to take a bath,¡± Calvin replied, to which she smiled, thinking her daddy had an idea about where her mother was. ¡°Tonight, we will have dinner together, and I will ask mommy to cook something nice for us.¡± She spoke, to which Calvin didn¡¯t react. ¡°You will join us at the time of dinner, won¡¯t you?¡± ¡°Sure.¡± ¡°Perfect. It will be more like a family date.¡± Roselet cheered happily. Calvin smiled, seeing her happy, and looked at Nelina. . #TBC . A/N: Thank you for reading!! 60K Words have been posted, but I barely have reviews on the story ?? Please leave your review. 62 ¡°You wanted to retire, didn¡¯t you? I guess you can do that now. Please exin each and every routine of Roselet to Ethlyn so that she can look after Roselet in your absence in the same way you do. And after giving her training for a week or more if required, you can finally retire.¡± ¡°Okay, Calvin.¡± Nelina agreed. Just like yesterday, Ethlyn went to drop Roselet school with Nelina. ¡°Yes, she is my mommy. Meet my mommy. Yes, I, too, have a mommy now.¡± Roselet introduced Ethlyn to the remaining pups to whom she couldn¡¯t introduce yesterday. Once she went inside the school after the bell rang, Nelina spoke, ¡°She is so happy to have you in her life.¡± ¡°I missed a lot of things of her life. I think the feelings are mutual.¡± Ethlyn said, looking in the direction in which Roselet disappeared. ¡°I want to know each and every little thing about her from the beginning to now.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry. You will get a lot of time to do so because I¡¯m taking retirement, and you will get a chance to do all the things that you missed all these years.¡± ¡°Retirement?¡± Ethlyn was shocked to learn that. ¡°Yes. I told Calvin a couple of times before, and finally, he said that I could retire after guiding me to all the routines of Rose. I know as a mother, you don¡¯t need any training, but¡­.¡± ¡°Nelina!! Nelina!!¡± Ethlyn quickly stopped her in the middle. ¡°I won¡¯t lie, but I know nothing about the mother role¡± She quickly cleared her misconception. ¡°I became a mother for the first time with Rose and her brother and had no experience with pups. All I can do is basic things because I have a younger sister. Other than that, my knowledge is ZERO.¡± ¡°Please tell me you¡¯re joking.¡± Nelinaughed in tension, but when she saw Ethlyn with a serious face. She realized that Ethlyn was telling the truth. ¡°Do you know how to tie someone else hair?¡± She asked, recalling Roselet¡¯s demands of different hairstyles on a daily basis, to which Ethlyn shook her head. ¡°Do you know how to change a pup¡¯s clothes?¡± ¡°No. But how hard could it be?¡± Ethlyn mumbled. ¡°They have to enter their head in round or V shape neck of t-shirt and top. And hands in the sleeves.¡± She replied, thinking it was so easy. ¡°Ahh!! I think you will realize that on your own when you will have to make Roselet wear anything except dresses and frocks.¡± Nelina responded. ¡°Umm¡­ the most important one. Do you know cooking?¡± Ethlyn ¡°¡­..¡± ¡°Oh no!! Rose told Calvin that you will cook a special dinner for her and him.¡± Nelina said, dropping a bomb on Ethlyn. ¡°What? But I don¡¯t know how to cook.¡± Ethlyn confessed in tension. ¡°Now, what will I do? Moon Goddess, what will she think of me? Her daddy knows everything, while I don¡¯t know anything.¡± ¡°You will have to help me, Nelina. You will have to tell them that what are the things that they like so that I will be ready with the recipe in advance.¡± ¡°Sure. By the way, don¡¯t mind me asking, what did you use to do in your free time when you were growing up? I mean, most of the females learn doing households in those periods.¡± ¡°I had a dream back then, and I was busy fulfilling it,¡± Ethlyn said. ¡°But unfortunately, I met with an ident, and I couldn¡¯tplete it.¡± ¡°What dream?¡± ¡°Nothing special. That was the story of my past. For now, I want to spend all my time with Rose.¡± Ethlyn said, brushing away the topic.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°Every dream is special, Ethlyn. It¡¯s fine to keep your pup as priorities but don¡¯t forget your own individual identity while doing so.¡± Nelina said, not forcing her to tell her about her dreams. ¡°Come on, let¡¯s go before Rose drops a bomb on you aftering from the school.¡± ***** By the time they returned to the penthouse, the floor had already beenpleted. Ethlyn saw Calvin leaving his room in a three-piece suit, unlike a boxer and t-shirt. ¡°Don¡¯t forget about your dinner, Calvin.¡± Nelina reminded him before leaving. ¡°I won¡¯t.¡± He replied, to which Nelina gave him a surprised look. ¡°I mean, I will try not to forget.¡± Saying this, he left from there. ¡°I don¡¯t understand. Why does he wear these types of clothes in the pack?¡± Ethlyn asked, recalling the man in the suit yesterday, but something was off about him. ¡°He is going to the office today, which is in the human world. He is the CEO of Haysbert Studios.¡± Nelina said before asking, ¡°You don¡¯t know anything about him, do you?¡± Hearing this question, Ethlyn shook her head. ¡°Do you want to know?¡± She asked next, to which Ethlyn nodded her head. She didn¡¯t want to keep a wrong assumption about Calvin without knowing anything about him. She couldn¡¯t forget the words that he had said to her father. A part of her was angry that he was insulting and misbehaving with her father, but her heart fluttered hearing those words. She could never have thought that he had those amazing thoughts about mate and mate bonds. She remembered how he was ready to kill her mother because she made Roselet cry and also insulted her publicly. The fact that he would have done the same for his mate increased the respect for him in her heart. Calvin knew that Roselet shouldn¡¯t have hidden the ring, and she was positive that he might have scolded her or asked herter the reason for doing but not once he said a word to her publicly. This was one of the signs of good parenting. . #TBC 63 Instead of scolding for everything, one should ask the pup about the reason behind him/her doing it and correct him/her at that time with love. Instead of embarrassing the pups in public, one should confront them privately. ¡°Okay then, let¡¯s start with his family. Calvin is the third child of his parents; Caroline and Colton are his older siblings, while Liara and Tiara is his younger sibling or, say, sisters. Both Colton and Calvin are twins, just like Liara and Tiara.¡± ¡°Twins?¡± ¡°Yes!! It is in family genes from Calvin¡¯s father¡¯s end. It¡¯s notpulsory that one can¡¯t have a single pup. Obviously, it is possible.¡± Nelina said with a smile. ¡®That¡¯s why I was also blessed with twins.¡¯ Ethlyn thought before speaking. ¡°I can already see that as an example, Caroline is a single child and maybe the oldest among all, isn¡¯t she?¡± ¡°Actually, Mr. & Mrs. Haysbert adopted her when she was a day old,¡± Nelina replied with a smile. ¡°I was appointed by them as a nanny for her years back.¡± ¡°Oh, you¡¯re that old,¡± Ethlyn said.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°Old? Do you think I¡¯m old?¡± Nelina asked with a serious face. ¡°No. Not at all. You look like you¡¯re in your sweet sixteen.¡± Ethlyn said that same line to Nelina, which she heard Roselet using to make Nelina smile. ¡°You¡¯re coping your pup¡¯s cheese line.¡± Nelinaughed. ¡°That¡¯s her way to get her things done. By the way, I was just kidding.¡± She added. ¡°So, where I was!! Yes, I used to look after Caroline in the beginning, then Lee and Tee, while Jake, my husband, looked after Calvin and Colton in the absence of their parents. Caroline, Colton, and Lee were self-dependent, while Calvin and Tee were the most pampered pups of the family.¡± After an hour, Ethlyn realized that she could just know the details of Calvin by all this, not his nature and behavior. Little did she know that she had to stay close to Calvin and watch him carefully to know more about him. She prepared the lunch that noon on Nelina¡¯s guidance and sent a tiffin box for Calvin¡¯s office when an omega came to take it; then, she went on her own to bring Roselet from the school. She felt someone keeping an eye on her, and whenever she used to look around, she found no one. ¡®Moon Goddess!! Am I going paranoid?¡¯ She wondered and started walking in the direction of the school. That feeling worsened when she reached school because a lot of mothers or fathers of the pups started staring at her as if she was an Alien. She touched her face from time to time, thinking something might have stuck on her face while making lunch. Ethlyn diverted her mind and waited for Roselet, but she could sense the anger of those parents. She couldn¡¯t understand the reason behind it. When she couldn¡¯t handle the stare of those pack members, she asked, ¡°Is there any problem?¡± ¡°Yes,¡± One of the women among them replied. ¡°Okayyy. And what is that?¡± She asked and saw a couple of women forming a circle around her. ¡°We can¡¯t risk the lives of all the pack members because of your presence in the pack.¡± ¡°Sorry? I don¡¯t understand.¡± Ethlyn said, looking at those angry mothers for a while until she recognized the face of two mothers who had lost their pups yesterday. **** Calvin felt someone trying to mindlink him in the middle of the meeting. ¡®What is it?¡¯ He asked,ing directly to the point. ¡®Alpha, Ethlyn is missing.¡¯ Lemieux¡¯s mind linked. * Calvin looked at his business partner, Ben Davis, and signaled him to listen to all the things carefully and note them down if required so that he would ask for the detailter. Ben Davis was Calvin¡¯s old friend from his modeling days. They both had a dream of opening a production house in the future. At first, they wanted to go individual, but when Calvin got another responsibility after bing the Alpha of the pack, he asked Ben to join him in the business because it would have taken a lot of time for Ben to have his own production house as his family didn¡¯t support him in his dream. Ben couldn¡¯t understand why Calvin used to disappear all of a sudden and used to stay absent for at least three to four days a week until he caught Calvin¡¯s glowing eyes and heard him growling like an animal in the camera that he had set in Calvin¡¯s cabin. Ben couldn¡¯t understand how this was possible, so he confronted Calvin and came to know the whole truth about what Calvin was. And since then, Ben had helped Calvin in work as much as he could so that Calvin could manage his other responsibility. ¡®What the hell do you mean she is missing?¡¯ Calvin asked after a while because he was in the middle of hearing the storyline of the uing movie. He would have to n and coordinate various aspects of film production, such as selecting the script, coordinating writing, directing, editing, arrange financing after listening to the story of the movie. ¡®Use your smelling power and find her before Roselet gets to know about it.¡¯ Calvin scolded him. ¡®I haven¡¯t kept you all in the pack for nothing.¡¯ He added. ¡®That¡¯s the problem, Alpha. There is no ¡®ALL¡¯ here. Most of the pack embers are not helping me in finding her by answering my question. I don¡¯t know why they are acting so selfish.¡¯ Lemieux responded. Nelina asked him about Ethlyn when he came to the penthouse with Roselet after her school. That was when he realized that Ethlyn had gone to pick Roselet up alone and had left the penthouse before the time so that she wouldn¡¯t gette at all. But Lemieux had no idea about it. Hell, when he came out of school with Roselet, he didn¡¯t find her anywhere. . #TBC 64 He used to stay in the school throughout his time as a trainer, so he was positive that Ethlyn wasn¡¯t there waiting for Roselet. At that moment, he had no idea about Ethlyning here, so he didn¡¯t even bother to look for her. ¡®She might have lost the way of the school.¡¯ Nelina suggested, but that was impossible because the route of the school wasn¡¯t a maze where anyone would get lost, but yes, the way to the school was underground, so there could be a chance that Ethlyn couldn¡¯t find the underground route. ¡®Or she might be at her sister¡¯s ce?¡¯ Nelina suggested next. To find where Ethlyn was, he looked at Beta¡¯s ce and all the way to the school, but he couldn¡¯t find her scent anywhere. He even asked a couple of warriors on patrol, who informed him that no one had left the pack. He then asked the parents of the pups who were there about Ethlyn, while a couple of them replied that they had no idea about it, while the others avoided the question at all, which made Lemieux suspicious. ¡°Excuse me, everyone!!¡± Calvin excused himself before speaking, ¡°I will have to leave because the mother of my daughter is in town, and she got herself in trouble. I¡¯m sorry.¡± He exined that one of the writers among the two was his old client and had a record of giving superhits movies. ¡°Mother of your daughter, Mr. Haysbert?¡± Tessa Bale questioned in surprise. ¡°Yes, Mrs. Gale. I¡¯m sorry again.¡± Saying this, Calvin said before dashing toward the exit of the meeting room. ¡°That¡¯s¡­that¡¯s so unprofessional of him, Tessa,¡± Her co-writer, Jame Waititi, said. ¡°He first schedules the meeting as per his timing, and now this. There are a lot of production houses out there.¡± He suggested. Tessa Bale smiled before replying, ¡°I have known that boy for decades, Jame. And the fact he gives priority to his family before work is the best thing about him. Leave it; I will ask him to fix this damage by inviting us to a family dinner. And trust me, you will fall in love with his daughter.¡± ¡°Anyway, let¡¯s resume the meeting.¡± Tessa Bale suggested, looking at Ben Davis. * ¡®Lemi, Damien, Asher, Artin, Daniel, Sonia, Nate, Liam, Aiden, Naomi, Chloe, and Zordan, Kidnap each and every pup of the pack.¡¯ Calvin mindlinked all his pack members. ¡®WHAT?¡¯ Only Zordan questioned back, even though all other members at this order of the Alpha. ¡®Do what I¡¯m asking you to do, Beta Zordan, without question, and hide them in Bunker by cloaking their scents so that no one can find them. Is that clear to everyone?¡¯ ¡®Yes, Alpha.¡¯ Everyone replied. ¡®Perfect. I will be there within half an hour. I need this work to be done by then.¡¯ Calvin closed the mind linked after saying this. ¡®If you¡¯re bad, then I¡¯m your dad, pack members.¡¯ He mentally thought, already assuming what could have happened. After half an hour, when he reached at the pack, he could already see the a lot of worried and tense faces, running here and there, talking to each other and on the verge of crying. ¡°Alpha, we can¡¯t find our pup.¡± Two women came running to him. ¡°Where would they go? Search them nicely.¡± He responded and started to leave from there when another few pack members blocked his way. ¡°Alpha, even we can¡¯t find our pups. We asked Beta, Gamma, Delta, and the warriors appointed at the border about our pups, but no one is helping us.¡± The other pack member said while the pack members behind nodded their heads. ¡°In the same way? A lot of you didn¡¯t help Lemieux when he came to your doorsteps looking for Ethlyn, the mother of my pup.¡± Calvin asked casually. ¡°But Alpha, I really don¡¯t know anything about it.¡± ¡°Same here, Alpha.¡± ¡°We didn¡¯t say anything like that to Lemieux.¡± Those pack members who werepletely innocent started speaking while the other one stayed silent. ¡°Does¡­ does that mean you have to do anything with the missing pups?¡± One of the pack members asked Calvin meekly, not sure whether he was right or not. ¡°All I know is that missing pups is rted to missing Ethlyn. And no help will be offered from my end if the silent pack members can¡¯t open their mouths.¡± Calvin replied and started leaving. ¡°She is the reason because of why my pup was killed because she killed the son of the hunter¡¯s leader.¡± Eva, Alexia¡¯s mother, said,ined. Calvin turned around and looked at her, narrowing his eyes. ¡°If we will give her to the hunters, then the reason for the war would end on its own.¡± Lily, Jasper¡¯s mother, said. ¡°As long as I¡¯m alive, that¡¯s not going to happen for sure,¡± Calvin said in determination.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org. ¡°And if Ethlyn wouldn¡¯t have killed that son of hunters and I would have done it for sure for hurting her,¡± he added. ¡°Now, you all will get your pups back only when Ethlyn will be back.¡± He announced before adding, ¡°I know she is still in the pack because Lily just mentioned that ¡®If we WILL give her to the hunters¡¯. It means you all haven¡¯t given her to the hunters yet.¡± Calvin left from there, giving them time to think it over. He didn¡¯t want to make harsh decisions against his own pack members for doing this because he knew they were just angry and in pain. They weren¡¯t criminals, just trained warriors who definitely knew how to hide anyone. And the fact they were in the majority was a bonus point for them. The moment the elevator opened, which Calvin was going to enter, Roselet walked out with a long face. . #TBC 65 ¡°Daddy,¡± Roselet quickly hugged Calvin¡¯s legs. ¡°Yes, love¡± ¡°Where is Mommy?¡± She asked, lifting her head up. ¡°I heard Grandma Nelina speaking that she went to receive me at school, but I didn¡¯t see her anywhere.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, sweetheart, just trust me, your mommy will be back to you by evening, okay?¡± ¡®Alpha, they brought Ethlyn with them.¡¯ Zordan mindlinked. ¡°Rose, go upstairs. I will join you after some time.¡± Calvin said, sending Roselet back. He didn¡¯t want her to witness all these things. ¡°But dadd¡­¡± ¡°Roselet Haysbert, GO.¡± Calvin said sternly. Hearing her full name from his name, she nodded and went in the elevator without speaking a word. Once she left, Calvin went out and found Ethlyn¡¯s hand and legs tied, and a big tape was on her mouth. Calvin couldn¡¯t sense her wolf, nor could he smell her scent. So, he already realized what his pack members would have done to her. He red at everyone before asking, ¡°Where was she?¡± ¡°We have locked her in the school store room.¡± The principal of the school spoke, not looking at Calvin but ring at Ethlyn. Calvin walked toward Ethlyn to remove the tape from her mouth. ¡°Did you forget the woman whom you were hurting is the mother of your princess? How would Rose feel if she knew about all this?¡± He questioned her, to which she couldn¡¯t reply anything.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Princess should know how her mother left her when she was born and what kind of characterle¡­.¡± Lily¡¯s words were not evenpleted when Calvin growled at her angrily. Calvin carefully started removing the tape so that Ethlyn wouldn¡¯t feel pain. And finally, after struggling for a while, he was sessful in his work. A lone tear escaped from Ethlyn¡¯s eyes. Calvin wiped it gently and started opening the rope of her hands. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Alpha, but with the amount of respect that you have for this woman, we don¡¯t think she deserves it. And nor will she receive any respect from any of us. She is nothing but a slut for¡­.¡± A loud growl escaped from Calvin¡¯s throat, and a few of the pack members moved back, cowering in fear while others looked like they were ready to bolt. ¡°Enough NOW. If anyone has any problem with her, then they can leave my pack now and here.¡± Calvin growled, removing the rope around her legs after removing them around her hands while Ethlyn was looking at him in shock, like she couldn¡¯t believe that Calvin was ready to kick his pack members for her. ¡°You said that she won¡¯t receive any respect from any of you. I would like to see how the hell you won¡¯t respect your Luna.¡± Saying this, Calvin looked at Ethlyn, who had been looking at him in shock for a while. Calvin stood up on his feet and pulled her into his arms. He tore her t-shirt from the neck, covering her shoulder and neck, dipping his head. Calvin licked her soft skin with his tongue before sinking his teeth in her sink. Ethlyn gasped and clung to Calvin when he pierced his long elongated teeth into her skin. Soon, Ethlyn felt her body start epting the bond. Tears escaped from her eyes again in both pain and pleasure. She couldn¡¯t believe that this was really happening for REAL? Everything was like a shock to her. No one had done so much for her until now, and the person who did was the most unexpected person in her life. She felt, seeing the unity between the pack members, Calvin would choose their side, but she was wrong again; Calvin chose her and didn¡¯t give her to the hunters. This also proved to her that Calvin was powerful enough to go against anyone if his point was. Calvin chose the option of war rather than trading her with hunters was also the point that he wasn¡¯t scared of anyone. She hadn¡¯t seen anyone doing something this crazy before. If not for his own pack members, he would have killed them for sure. Of course, he had heard him saying all those things before, but a lot of people had a habit of bluffing in the heat of the moment. Little did she know then that Calvin was a werewolf of his words. * A minute passed since Calvin¡¯s teeth were deep in Ethlyn¡¯s skin, and her body started feeling tingling everywhere Calvin touched her. She felt his wolf and mindlink getting connected with her next. This all was happening with Ethlyn for the second time, so neither she nor her wolf was excited about it because they didn¡¯t have very high hope for this rtionship, but at the same time, they couldn¡¯t control the change in her hormones. Because a part of her was screaming in joy already. At the same time, Calvin knew that a lot of eyes were on them, but he ignored them. It was true that he hadn¡¯t thought about this step before doing this, but now that he had already marked her. He doubted his decision to do that. He wanted to choose anyone as his chosen mate in case of failure to find his fated mate without any pressure. He wanted to choose her of his own will, but this was anything but not the way he wanted to choose his chosen mate. A part of him was indirectly pushed into it, and just like Ethlyn, he, too, didn¡¯t have a high hope for this rtionship. Calvin lifted his head after making Ethlyn and looked around at his pack members. They knew if they wouldn¡¯t ept Ethlyn as Luna now, then they would end up losing the pack, and the life of rogue wasn¡¯t something that any wolf wanted to choose. So, they knelt down, bowed their head, and howled loudly, epting Ethlyn as Luna. Ethlyn knew there were forced to do so for fear that they might lose everything if they would go against Calvin, but Calvin didn¡¯t give a damn about this fact. . #TBC 66 ¡®They¡¯re epting Ethlyn for their selfish reason, not because I made them do so. They were free to leave the pack but wondering where they would go; they ended up staying here for their safety reason.¡¯ Calvin thought. Soon, all the pups came running out of the packhouse happily. They didn¡¯t even have the idea that they were kidnapped because they went in the bunker on their own, that too in excitement because the whole bunker was a y zone and pups enjoyed their time ying various types of games. All Zordan and his men had to do was to tell kids about taking them to the y zone if they would bring at least ten other pups with them. And all the pups did this on their own wish. ¡°Thank you, Alpha!! Thank you, Alpha,¡± multiple pups started thanking Calvin. Calvin smiled at them. Little did those innocent pups know that the moment they were enjoying was also the moment where their parents were worried sick for them. ¡°Pups!! Meet Ethlyn, the Luna of the pack.¡± Calvin introduced Ethlyn to them on which their smile widened. ¡°I was going to ask the same,¡± Brad said. ¡°Because I feel connected to her, and we have been told that while the adults are connected with the Alpha of the pack, pups are connected with the Luna of the pack,¡± he added, to which other pups nodded their heads. ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± Calvin smiled at them. The adults of the pack felt connected to the Alpha of the pack. In the case of Calvin¡¯s anger or any other emotions, they could feel that. In the same, pups were connected to the Luna, and these bonds were vice-versa. Calvin sensed Ethlyn¡¯s pain, who held his arms for support. ¡°Excuse me, everyone.¡± He said, picking Ethlyn in his arms. Damn, he forgot in the rush that Ethlyn was beta blood and the amount of pain that Ethlyn would feel would be unbearable for a while, and the fact that her wolf wasn¡¯t with her now was also not in her favor. ¡°You okay?¡± Calvin asked, observing her face in pain.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. She shook her head before replying, ¡°I feel like someone pierced thousands of needles in my body at once. But I¡¯m trying to handle it because it¡¯s the third time I¡¯m going through this phase.¡± She added, groaning in pain. Calvin already realized why she mentioned ¡®THIRD¡¯ time. She might have felt the same pain when Alpha Nathan would have marked her and rejected her. That was the reason most of the wolves died during rejection because they couldn¡¯t find any reason to stay alive after rejection. ¡®And I will have to go through this pain for the fourth time as well.¡¯ Ethlyn thought, which Calvin heard loud and clear. ¡®Will I reject her too, just like Alpha Nathan?¡¯ Calvin wondered, and just a simple thought of leaving her made him feel guilty. His father taught him never to im anything which he didn¡¯t want, whether it was any rtionship or toys or some food or pet. ¡°Mommyyyy!!¡± Roselet came running from the living room when she heard the sound of the door getting opened and found Ethlyn in Calvin¡¯s arms in a bridal style. ¡°What happened to her, Calvin? Where was she?¡± She asked. ¡°Later, Rose. She needs rest.¡± Calvin replied. Roselet didn¡¯t ask anything and followed her father, she watched Calvin cing Ethlyn on the bed, and that was when she observed Ethlyn¡¯s torn t-shirt. Without asking anything, she silently reached near Ethlyn to check whether she was injured or if something had happened to her mother. ¡°Mommy, please turn a little.¡± She requested Ethlyn when she saw her swollen neck. ¡°Do it, mom; I have to see what happened to you.¡± Ethlyn looked at Calvin, but when she didn¡¯t receive any response from her, she turned around as requested by Roselet. Roselet observed a big area of Ethlyn¡¯s neck and shoulder bitten, and it was still fresh. Ethlyn was still bleeding. ¡°Daddy?¡± Roselet held Calvin¡¯s hand in concern. ¡°Don¡¯t worry, sweetheart. Whenever a werewolf marks anyone, then, in the beginning, it looks like in the same way before forming¡­.¡± ¡°Tattoo?¡± Roselet asked in between, to which Calvin nodded his head. ¡°Now, go and have your lunch. I know you haven¡¯t eaten anything. Our question and answer time is in the night.¡± Calvin said, patting Roselet¡¯s back to walk toward the door. Roselet pouted. ¡°Go, love.¡± ¡°Okay, daddy.¡± Roselet agreed when she observed Calvin¡¯s narrowed eyes. Once she left, Calvin turned his head toward Ethlyn, who was ready to sleep by covering herself with the nket. ¡°Wait!!¡± He mumbled. ¡°You will end up ruining the bedsheet, pillow cover, and nket with your blood.¡± He said rudely and made her turn around to examine his mark on her shoulder. It could be healed by him by licking that area. He sat beside her on the bed and started leaning toward her neck. Sensing his warm breath on her skin, Ethlyn turned around and found her face just an inch away from him. ¡°What are you doing?¡± She asked, not expecting him to start his shameless activity just after some minute of marking her. But then, all her thoughts about him were proved to be wrong. She kept her mouth before knowing his intention. ¡°I have to close my mark properly, or it will take days to heal. And I don¡¯t want Rose to get worried all those days by observing it.¡± Calvin replied, making her turn around. ¡°Don¡¯t start getting any stupid idea, okay,¡± he added because he again heard her thoughts that he was going to start a shameless activity with her just after marking her. He leaned a little more and ran his tongue along his mark slowly. And the moment he did so, Ethlyn¡¯s heart started pounding loudly in her chest. She wouldn¡¯t be surprised if Calvin would say that he could hear her heartbeats, and it was true. . #TBC 67 The second time Calvin ran his tongue, she grabbed the bedsheet tightly, shutting her eyes, and couldn¡¯t control the pleasure that she was feeling at that moment. At the same time, Calvin inhaled her coffee and walnut scent, the presence of scent that he could trace in Roselet, the scent that had been his favorite all these years. Not just that, feeling the soft skin with his tongue after so many years had awoken his desire that had no longer his priority. He wanted more of her, and all of a sudden, her arousal hit his nose, bringing him to reality. ¡®Fuck!!¡¯ He stood up on his feet and left the room, mming the door hardly. * Calvin hit the vase in his room with his hand the moment he walked inside. ¡®What the hell was that!! Control on this one-sided bond, Keanu.¡¯ He talked with his wolf, who was getting affected already. ¡®I¡¯m not the only one to be med here.¡¯ Keanu resorted. ¡®You should have known what mess you were getting into by marking her.¡¯ he added, shutting his human mouth. ¡®Thank you for making me realize that I¡¯m screwed.¡¯ Calvin said before calling Ben to know the update on the meeting that he had to leave in the middle for all these reasons. Ben exined the remaining storyline of the movie in detail before speaking, ¡°I liked the storyline, but Jame Waititi was annoying. He keptining about how irresponsible you were after you left, even after Tessa Bale tried to exin him your situation.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay, Ben. I can¡¯t expect other people to understand my situation. Anyways, I will apologize to him personally again.¡± ¡°Ahh! About that, you might have to because Tessa suggested the same thing to him.¡± Ben said, recalling what Tessa Bale told Jame Waititi!! ¡°Anyway, what was that?¡± ¡°What?¡± ¡°The mother of your daughter in the city? Was this true?¡± Ben asked because he knew how Calvin became the father of a daughter overnight. ¡°Yes. And she indeednded into trouble.¡± Calvin mumbled, wondering why she alwaysnded in trouble. ¡°Now, she is out of that trouble but to save her, I feel like I ended up in trouble.¡± ¡°What happened?¡± ¡°You can say that I kind of married her in a werewolf way to save her, and the problem is that we don¡¯t love¡­ leave love, we don¡¯t even like each other, not even a bit. We are just connected to each other because of Rose.¡± ¡°She doesn¡¯t like you?¡± Ben asked in amusement. ¡°Damn, I¡¯m interested in meeting her, man,¡± he said in amusement. He personally believed that any woman not liking Calvin would be special for sure.¡± ¡°Do you think I¡¯m in the mood to have fun now?¡± Calvin asked, getting irritated. ¡°Fine. Fine. You both can try to work on your rtionship together, you know?¡± Ben suggested. ¡°And who knows, you both would end up falling for each other?¡± ¡°You know that I don¡¯t fall in love with anyone. No matter how much I tried to but I just couldn¡¯t. I used to get bored with women after knowing them.¡± Calvin responded. ¡°They are so fucking irritating. The moment they open their stupid mouth, they reveal that the upper floor of their mind is empty.¡± ¡°Oh, please!! Don¡¯t me women. You always chose stupid women.¡± Ben corrected him. ¡°After hearing about your situation, I will really suggest you to give a fair chance to this rtionship if you love Rose because it¡¯s not good for kids to see their parents acting like strangers, no matter whether that kid is a child of human or a werewolf. And I¡¯m telling this with my personal experience, my parents remained married for almost two decades, but they both dated someone else behind my back.¡± ¡°So, just don¡¯t do that. You can fool Rose now, but someday she will start understanding everything in detail, and she will lose her faith in any rtionship.¡±Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°I hope you will bring the mother of your daughter to the Diwali celebration at our office.¡± ¡°At the office?¡± ¡°Yeah!! Rosees here every year to celebrate Diwali with Indian Employees. So, why not bring your whole family this year?¡± Ben questioned casually. ¡°Also, in that way, female staffs will stop hitting on you.¡± he joked. **** After disconnecting the call, Calvin started working again, and Roselet walked into his room, holding a tray in her hand. ¡°Daddy!! Leave the work and have your lunch first.¡± She ordered. ¡°Did your mother have her lunch?¡± Calvin asked, closing the file and cing it aside. ¡°No. I went into her room, but she was sleeping, so I didn¡¯t disturb her. Grandpa Nelina asked me to let mommy rest properly.¡± Roselet replied, cing the tray on the bed, and didn¡¯t leave Calvin¡¯s side until he finished his lunch. ¡°Do you want to say something?¡± ¡°Nothing important. Just¡­ I love you, daddy, and you¡¯re the best.¡± Roselet said, giving him a flying kiss. Calvin caught it and ced it on his chest. ¡°I love you too, princess. And you make me the best.¡± Calvin responded. ¡°Come here, take your afternoon nap beside me.¡± He said, pointing toward his bed. Roselet quickly agreed, but before that, she grabbed the tray and went into the kitchen to give it to Nelina. ¡°Thank you, daddy,¡± Roselet said for the fourth time. She wasn¡¯t telling the exact reason for saying so, but Calvin knew his daughter was extremely happy today with the fact that her daddy marked her mommy. ¡°And this ¡®thank you¡¯ is for?¡± ¡°For loving me so much,¡± Roselet replied with a grin. ¡°Okay, enough now. Sleep, or you won¡¯t wake up after two hours, and then you won¡¯t sleep easily at night.¡± ***** #TBC 68 On the other side!! ¡°I can¡¯t believe you, Zordan,¡± Revained the moment she saw Zordan using hisptop in their room. She ced a couple of shopping bags on the floor and reached near him, wondering whether she should close hisptop or not. Their rtionship wasn¡¯t that old, so she didn¡¯t close hisptop; instead, she picked hisptop in her hand and sat in hisp, ring at her mate, who wasn¡¯t looking at her. ¡°Reva.. I¡¯m working on something important, sweetheart.¡± Zordan said. ¡°If you will work so much, then when will we spend time together?¡± Reva questioned. ¡°I didn¡¯t want to go anywhere because ofst evening¡¯s incident in the pack, but you took my parents and me for the shopping to change our mind and then left us in the middle by asking to shop on our own and handed over your card in my hand. That¡¯s rude.¡± Sheined, not having any idea what happened in the pack in her and her parent¡¯s absence and why Zordan had to rush to the pack immediately because both Alpha and Beta weren¡¯t present at the time when Ethlyn disappeared. ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± Zordan apologized, caressing her cheek. ¡°Actually, I have reason to do so. I didn¡¯t want you all to start getting worried. That¡¯s why I left you and your parents in the mall without exining anything.¡± ¡°Yes, you should be sorry,¡± Reva said, pouting her lips. ¡°Anyway, now tell me what had happened?¡± She asked next. ¡°Actually¡­..¡± ¡°Moon Goddess!! So, many things happened in just a few hours.¡± Reva eximed. ¡°I should go and check on Ethlyn and also tell mom and dad about it.¡± She was about to leave hisp when Zordan made her sit in hisp again. ¡°Not now. Alpha is in the penthouse. And he doesn¡¯t like someone disturbing his privacy. He is not rude, but for the past few years, he has been staying with just Rose and, before that, all alone, so you know..¡± ¡°I get it,¡± Reva mumbled. ¡°Moreover, I don¡¯t want to deal with Alpha Calvin¡¯s anger. I used to argue with Nathan if he used to hurt my sister, but I feel like I will pee in my pant when Alpha Calvin res. So, arguing with him is a big NO.¡± ¡°But still, I don¡¯t like him hurting my sister,¡± Reva whispered softly. ¡°me his wolf for this. He has a bad temper. And the fact that he is already thirty-two years ago and hasn¡¯t found his mate didn¡¯t help him either.¡± ¡°His mate? His fated mate?¡± Reva asked to which Zordan nodded his head. ¡°Please tell me that Ethlyn, too, marked Alpha Calvin back?¡± ¡°Nope. That didn¡¯t happen.¡± Zordan replied. Hearing this, Reva furrowed her eyebrow in tension. ¡°Stop worrying about your sister. It¡¯s not that Calvin is going to find his fated mate tomorrow, and Calvin will end up rejecting Ethlyn.¡± Reva pouted. ¡°Come on, Reva. They both are adults. Don¡¯t behave like Rose, dreaming of seeing them together. If they are meant to be together, then they will.¡± Zordan cheered her mood. ¡°Now, give me myptop; I¡¯m working on something very important,¡± Zordan said, on which Reva looked at hisptop and found a sketch of the woman who Calvin was searching for. She checked a couple of emails, not able to control her jealousy or say insecurity. ¡°This is important?¡± She questioned, not liking the fact that her mate was searching for a woman. ¡°Yes, very.¡± Zordan teased her, kissing her cheek. ¡°This is not funny,¡± Reva whined. ¡°Who is this? Just don¡¯t tell me she is your ex-girlfriend and¡­¡± Her words were cut in between when Zordan mmed his lips against her. Zordan kept theptop aside and kissed her passionately. They got so engrossed in their kiss that they didn¡¯t realize that someone had arrived in their room. ¡°Son, I think you should start closing the door of your room.¡± Reva quickly pushed Zordan and turned out and found Zordan¡¯s mother with a sly grin.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡®How could I forget that his parents were going to arrive today?¡¯ Reva cursed in her mind, and her cheeks turned embarrassment. ¡°Hey, Mom!!¡± Zordan blushed. ¡°We will join you all downstairs after five minutes,¡± he added. Joanna, Zordan¡¯s mother, smiled and left from there. ¡°Kiss was not the answer to my question. Who is she?¡± Reva returned back to her question. ¡°She is the woman who Calvin thinks is behind everything that happened with Ethlyn and Calvin. He just thinks he is not sure about it.¡± Reva didn¡¯t say anything and looked at the sketch of that woman again. But this time more properly. ¡®Why do I feel that I have seen her somewhere? But where?¡¯ She thought. ¡°Go and freshen up now. You¡¯re going to my parents officially for the first time.¡± Zordan said, sending her to the washroom. ***** Calvin returned back to his penthouse after meeting Zordan¡¯s parents and discussing the arrangement of the party for Reva to add to the pack and also to introduce her as the female Beta of the pack. He had a lot of chocte in his hand as well that they had brought for him. Roselet would get her shares of chocte when she would meet them personally. He went into Roselet¡¯s room to tease her by showing her choctes because she refused to apany him when he was going to visit Zordan¡¯s parents. ¡°Rose, see¡­¡± He said but didn¡¯t find her in the room. ¡°Where did she go?¡± He asked himself. ¡°Ahh! Maybe near HER.¡± he went into Ethlyn¡¯s room to check on Roselet, but they were not even there. . #TBC 69 He took a long breath and smelt them in his room, along with a third scent that was familiar, but he couldn¡¯t name who exactly was the owner of this scent. The moment he opened the door of his room, he was taken aback to see what was happening in his room. ¡°What is happening here?¡± He asked in irritation. ¡°Daddddyy!! I¡¯m shifting mommy¡¯s belonging to your room. Now that you marked her, she is yours, and I know how much you love keeping your things close to you.¡± Roselet answered and looked at the omega, who was watching his Alpha in fear. ¡°Why did you stop, Uncle? Daddy won¡¯t say anything.¡± Roselet said casually. She had no idea that Calvin was releasing his Alpha aura in anger. ¡°Yes, go ahead,¡± Calvin said, not saying anything to Roselet at that moment. ¡°Alpha, I was just taking the measurement of your walk-in closet so that it can be erged a little, and in that way, Luna¡¯s belongings can be adjusted here, but I don¡¯t think that is possible because you will have to renovate your whole closet and make it a bigger one. By doing that, the size of the room will be a little small.¡± ¡°Hmm. You can show me some designs of the new closet with new measurements. I will decide ordingly.¡± Calvin spoke and signaled him to leave. Once the omega left, Calvin looked at Roselet, who was still standing on the stool and looking around the closet, which was full of Calvin¡¯s clothes, his watches, his shoes, his wallets, his sunsses, and a lot of essories. ¡°Daddy, You have way too many clothes. I mean, what is the need for so many clothes when you are a werewolf?¡± She questioned with a frown. Calvin reached near her and picked her up in his arms. ¡°Oh! In that way, even your mother doesn¡¯t need clothes. What is the need to renovate the whole closet, huh?¡± Calvin asked her sarcastically, to which she pouted. ¡°This is thest time I¡¯m warning you, love. That I don¡¯t want anyone from the pack in my room without my presence, this is Alpha¡¯s room, and there are a lot of important documents inside it.¡± ¡°Last time, you brought your friends here, and now Evan. Just because you¡¯re Alpha heir and no one goes against your request or order doesn¡¯t mean you won¡¯t use your mind before doing it.¡± Calvin scolded her. Roselet quickly lowered her eyes and hugged Calvin, hiding her face in the crook of his neck. ¡°That¡¯s cheating, okay? You just can¡¯t try to calm me down when I¡¯m angry.¡± Calvin said, pushing her away. Roselet looked at Ethlyn for help, but she had already warned Roselet, but she didn¡¯t hear Ethlyn¡¯s warning.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Do you think that she is protecting you?¡± Calvin asked, looking at Ethlyn. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you stop her when she was making a stupid decision?¡± He asked Ethlyn. ¡°Is this how you¡¯re going to raise her? By letting her do whatever she wants?¡± ¡°I tried to stop her,¡± Ethlyn replied meekly. ¡°And she didn¡¯t listen to your words? Huh? Tell me one thing; she is your mother, or you¡¯re her mother?¡± He started throwing one after another question at her. Not a single word came from anyone¡¯s mouth. ¡°Youuuu.¡± Calvin looked at Roselet again. ¡°Go to your room and wear gym clothes.¡± Saying this, he kept her down on her feet. Roselet knew that the next two hours of her life wouldn¡¯t be any less than hell. ¡°Won¡¯t you punish mommy too? She just told me once and then didn¡¯t even try to stop me again,¡± Roselet said, pointing her finger at Ethlyn. ¡°That will be unfair, daddy, if you will let her go just like that.¡± She added. ¡®If you won¡¯t save me from daddy¡¯s anger, then I won¡¯t be the only one who will work out in the gym.¡¯ Roselet mentally thought. ¡°What the¡­¡± Ethlyn looked at her daughter in shock. ¡®Is she really my daughter?¡¯ She wondered. ¡°Wear your gym clothes, too,¡± Calvin ordered. ¡°I don¡¯t have gym clothes.¡± ¡°Daddy¡¯s have few.¡± Roselet quickly replied and ran into the closet to get Calvin¡¯s clothes and came back with them. ¡°Here.¡± She said, giving Ethlyn Calvin¡¯s clothes and shorts. Both Calvin and Ethlyn red at her. Because of using this as an excuse, both Calvin and Ethlyn wanted the same thing. Ethlyn didn¡¯t want to go the gym, and neither Calvin wanted her to be the third wheel between him and Roselet. ¡°I¡¯m going to change my clothes,¡± Roselet said and ran out of the room. ¡°You have only five minutes,¡± Calvin yelled, following her, more like to say that sentence to Ethlyn. He shut the door of the room behind him so that even Ethlyn could change. After five minutes, ¡°Are you done?¡± he asked before walking into his own room. ¡°Ummm.. yeah,¡± Ethlyn said, holding Calvin¡¯s shorts with her hand because it was too loose. Calvin walked in and found her in such a position, ¡°Use the drawstring to adjust the shorts.¡± ¡°I tried to, but It¡¯s too tight,¡± Ethlyn responded. Calvin reached near her before speaking, ¡°Remove your hand.¡± he said, and the moment Ethlyn removed her hand, Calvin started trying to open the knot of the drawstring with his hand. Ethlyn had lifted her t-shirt a little so that Calvin could see the drawstring easily. ¡®Damn,¡¯ He cursed mentally and knelt down, bringing his mouth close to the drawstring. He tried to knot open the knot with his mouth. The heartbeat of Ethlyn quicked again when she felt his warm breath on the naked skin of her waist, and Calvin heard it loud and clear. . #TBC 70 Finally, the knot was opened, and he pulled it tight, on which Ethlyn moved closer to him. He looked at her face, her eyes were closed, and her hand had held the t-shirt tightly. He tied a light knot and stood up on his feet. He wanted to tell her that it was done, but he silently just observed her in his clothes before walking out of the room. ¡°Mommy? Why are you standing like that?¡± Roselet asked in confusion, looking at Ethlyn when her father asked her to bring her mother with her. * Ethlyn was surprised to see how active and flexible Roselet was. ¡°Stop staring at her and show me some moves,¡± Calvin said, cing his hand on his height level, signaling her to touch it. It had been years since she worked out, so her body was not at all flexible. She tried to touch his hand but failed even after trying for a while. ¡°Tomorrow onwards, you will be joining the training at four in the morning,¡± Calvin said, observing her poor performance. ¡°I will have to join the training?¡± Ethlyn asked to confirm whether she heard it right because, in her previous pack, females were not allowed to train. Whatever she had learned was from her father just in case of self-defense. ¡°Did you hear me the first time? Hell, an omega can do much better than you. Your performance is below average.¡± ¡°You can¡¯t expect me to jump like a monkey just after waking from the hospital.¡± Ethlyn pointed out. ¡°Do I look like a fool? It clears that you don¡¯t know how to fight, and you can¡¯t give an excuse by saying you were in the hospital. I haven¡¯t fucked anyone since Rose entered my life, but that doesn¡¯t mean I have forgotten how to fuck.¡± ¡°E!!¡± Ethlyn made a face hearing it. ¡°You are giving me a reaction like you¡¯re a virgin, and I have said something to corrupt your innocent mind,¡± Calvin said, making a face. ¡°I¡¯m no virgin. But do you really have to use that point as an example?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t tell me you didn¡¯t like that example? Because I think you¡¯re among those students who used to feel shy while reading reproductive parts of humans and, at the same time, used to enjoy reading that chapter a lot.¡± ¡°Gross!! You be a shameless person whenever you open your mouth.¡± Ethlyn said and started trying to touch his hand again. ¡°Rose, 100 pushups,¡± Calvin yelled, looking at his daughter, who had just finished the squad and was listening to songs via AirPods. Roselet nodded her eyes and took the position. ¡°She can do 100 pushups?¡± Ethlyn asked in surprise. ¡°No. Just 40. But I always give her a big target so that she will feel blessed when I will give her a big discount.¡± Calvin replied. ¡°Now, start 100 pushups.¡± He ordered.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°100?¡± ¡°Yes?¡± ¡°You mean just 40?¡± ¡°It¡¯s a hundred for you,¡± Calvin ordered, narrowing his eyes and showing her the right position. He ced a hand on her stomach and another one on her back. ¡°Keep this straight.¡± He said while the butterfly flew into her stomach on his touch again. Thankfully, Calvin removed his hand away soon and started doing pushups along with them. ***** ¡°Just one sip,¡± Calvin said softly, on which Roselet turned her head in the other direction, shaking her head. Ethlyn smiled at their bond. Roselet was mad at Calvin for scolding her multiple times during the workout and also had scolded her before. ¡°It¡¯s a yummy chocte smoothie. You really don¡¯t want to drink it?¡± He asked again. ¡°No.¡± ¡°Fine.¡± Calvin started drinking it and showed her the finished ss. ¡°Tada. It¡¯s finished.¡± Roselet¡¯s face paled, looking at the ss. She thought her daddy would convince her a little more, but it looked like daddy was a foodie too. ¡°Aaaaaa¡± She cried, looking at the empty ss. ¡°Calvin, how could you dri¡­.¡± She stoppedining when she saw Calvin showing her another ss. ¡°Do you want it, or should I drink it too?¡± Calvin teased. ¡°I want it.¡± She cried. Calvin gave her share of the smoothie and tried to touch her ss, but Roselet quickly turned her face in another direction holding her ss. Calvin grinned at her cute behavior and looked around, only to find Ethlyn looking at them with a smile on her face. ¡°I¡­I was observing the bond you both share with each other.¡± Ethlyn started exining when she got caught by Calvin when her eyes were on her. ¡°I wasn¡¯t staring at just you.¡± ¡°But I didn¡¯t even say anything.¡± Calvin grinned. ¡°By the way, I talked with you about the investigation. Do you have anything to share?¡± ¡°Hmm.¡± Ethlyn nodded her head. ¡°After Roselet will be asleep, then we can talk about it.¡± Roselet looked at her parents suspiciously, wondering what they were going to talk about after she would be asleep. ¡°Finish your smoothie instead of using your mind unnecessarily like your mother,¡± Calvin said, hitting her head softly. ¡°What do you mean by that?¡± Ethlyn questioned. ¡°The same you understood,¡± Calvin replied, and they started arguing by pointing out one another¡¯s a mistake. Roselet silently watched them drinking her smoothie, looking at each of her parent¡¯s faces. ¡°I¡¯m pregnant,¡± Roselet said in the middle. ¡°What? WHAT?¡± ¡°Just kidding.¡± She said, leaving the chair. ¡°I didn¡¯t want both my parents to be together if you two are going to fight all the time. And I will go and stay with Grandpa and Grandma if you both will behave like this.¡± ¡°Rose¡­¡± ¡°Mom, I want to eat butter chicken with Garlic Naan for dinner.¡± Saying this, she left from there, dropping the jaws of both her parents. . #TBC 71 ¡°Moon Goddess, my daughter, is such a drama queen,¡± Calvin said in disbelief, still trying to adjust that her daughter said that she was pregnant. ¡°You mean ¡®OUR¡¯ daughter?¡± Ethlyn pointed out. Calvin red at her and started leaving from there as well when Ethlyn spoke again, ¡°Alpha Calvin, Where is Nelina?¡± ¡°She is on leave.¡± Replying to her, he had barely taken a step when he heard her speaking again. ¡°I don¡¯t know how to cook butter chicken and Garlic Naan.¡± She said this line in a low tone. Calvin turned around to re at her, but this time Ethlyn looked here and there. * ¡°Hello, Grandma,¡± Roselet waved her hand, looking at the screen of her Ipad. ¡°You won¡¯t believe me. They are cooking together for me,¡± She added with a wide smile. ¡°Aww!! You look so beautiful while smiling.¡± Sophia Haysbert said with a smile. ¡°But how did you manage this?¡± ¡°Just like always, a little acting, a little drama, and fake threat,¡± Roselet said, ying with her hair and then blowing air with her mouth to make her hair fly in style. * ¡°It¡¯s strange that being a girl, you don¡¯t know cooking,¡± Calvinmented, guiding the steps of Ethlyn of preparing chicken. ¡°Don¡¯t tell me that your thinking is that old that girls are born to handle the kitchen and family,¡± Ethlyn said, frowning at his words. ¡°No. Obviously not. I¡¯m sorry that I sounded like that.¡± Calvin quickly corrected himself. ¡°Even my youngest sister, Lee, I mean, Liara, doesn¡¯t know how to cook. Hell, she doesn¡¯t even know how to fight. But that¡¯s because she spent all her life between books.¡± ¡°You won¡¯t believe me, but shepleted high school when she was just twelve,¡± Calvin said. ¡°She was the extraordinary type of genius. I used to call her NERD to tease her.¡± ¡°No doubt that¡¯s why she is the youngest doctor in our world.¡± Ethlyn appreciated. She had a special type of respect for the medical students because her mother was a nurse, and she, too, wanted to be like her then. Calvin observed how Ethlyn¡¯s eyes shined with pride and happiness while talking about Liara, but immediately she became sad. ¡°What was your dream because of which you stayed away from both the training ground and kitchen?¡± Calvin asked, all of a sudden, shocking Ethlyn. ¡°Nothing important. It doesn¡¯t matter now.¡± She muttered and started cing the marinated chicken in the oil to fry. ¡°Carefully, or you will end up burning your hands,¡± Calvin said, grabbing her hand when she was most likely throwing chicken in the oil. ¡°I¡¯m a werewolf. I can heal easily.¡± Ethlyn said. ¡°That doesn¡¯t mean that you won¡¯t take precautions,¡± Calvin said and removed her hand, sensing the tension between them. He could sense this easily because he had marked Ethlyn already, but it wasn¡¯t that Ethlyn couldn¡¯t see that it was affecting Calvin too. ¡°So, what was your dream?¡± ¡°Why do you know about that? To mock me for how I couldn¡¯t achieve my dream as well as I¡¯m good at nothing?¡± ¡°Tone, Lady. I was just asking casually. There is no reason to react like this, and trust me; I won¡¯t say that you¡¯re not good in anything because I know you¡¯re great in bed.¡± Calvin taunted and grinned like an evil, increasing the temperature of Ethlyn¡¯s mind. She gritted her teeth but didn¡¯t say anything about that. ¡°Everything was fine that night until I drank six shots of tequ,¡± Ethlyn spoke about that night. ¡°Actually, I had turned eighteen just a couple of days before the mating ball, so¡­ I just wanted to explore everything, you know.¡± ¡®She was just eighteen then? And I was twenty-seven. Moon Goddess, she is nine years younger than me.¡¯ Calvin mentally thought. ¡°I started feeling dizzy after drinking those shots.¡±Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°By only six shots?¡± Calvin asked in surprise because the werewolves never get intoxicated that soon as they have high tolerancepared to humans. ¡°Yes!!¡± Ethlyn nodded her head. ¡°Then Nathan took me to the hotel where rooms were arranged for all the Alpha/Luna and Beta of the packs,¡± Keanu was getting irritated by listening to everything, but Calvin somehow calmed down his wolf. ¡°After I fell asleep, he left me in the room to attend the mating ball.¡± ¡°Why? In the absence of Alpha, Beta can handle everything.¡± Calvin pointed out. Hell, why the hell would anyone leave his intoxicated mate¡¯s side, that too when she had drunk for the first time? What if she would have vomited or something else? Ethlyn looked at Calvin without having any answer to this question because even she had the same question in her mind. ¡°I¡­ I don¡¯t know.¡± She mumbled, taking out the fried chicken on the te. ¡°I don¡¯t remember much after that. All I remember was extreme pain all over my body and body burning in fire at god knows what hour. The pain¡­ in which I felt I would die. The pain in which was getting unbearable for me.¡± Ethlyn kept exining how she was feeling while Calvin¡¯s jaws tightened hearing all this. If Nathan would have been standing in front of him at that moment, then he would have surely kicked his ass for leaving his mate in this situation. ¡°Whether you were a virgin, or your wolf was a virgin, or you both were virgins back then?¡± Calvin asked bluntly because only that were the chances when a wolf could be in heat. In short, the heat was a way when a female wolf wanted to intimate with her mate for the first time after finding him. ¡°My wolf, Cinder, was a virgin,¡± Ethlyn replied, looking at Calvin. . #TBC 72 She watched him, getting angry but then she looked away, knowing that one-sided bond was affecting him too. ¡°Hmm. How couldn¡¯t Alpha Nathan sense his mate in pain? Were you two marked?¡± He questioned.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°No. He marked me after I was pregnant with his pups which Iter came to know wasn¡¯t his.¡± ¡°I came to know from Zordy how it was told to you that you weren¡¯t pregnant with Nathan¡¯s pup,¡± Calvin said, shaking his head. ¡°Anyway, let¡¯s not add red chilies to your wound.¡± He added, brushing that topic. He couldn¡¯t imagine the amount of insult that she would have on one of the most important days of her life. ¡°How could you not realize that it wasn¡¯t your mate with whom you slept? I mean, you both might have talked about it, don¡¯t you?¡± He asked. ¡°I did.¡± Ethlyn agreed. ¡°And he told me that he was with me that night and left me in the morning when he had attended an important meeting out of the pack.¡± ¡°WHAT?¡± Calvin shouted in shock. Why did Alpha Nathan say that he was with her? ¡°Tell me each and exact word of that conversation,¡± he said next. **** FLASHBACK Ethlyn woke up in the afternoon and found herself in the room and no one around. Her head was spinning as if she had been on a roller coaster ride for an hour. She drank the water beside her and tried to think about thest night, but everything was a blur. All she remembered was some voices. She didn¡¯t have vivid memory after drinking shots. She then looked at her body, and was to be so many bruises all over her body. ¡®I didn¡¯t know Nathan was this wild.¡¯ She mentally thought, and all she could was the smell of body wash. ¡®Did I take a shower after sex? Moon Goddess, why do I have no memories ofst night?¡¯ She mumbled and mindlink Nathan to know where he was. ¡®Nathan, where are you? I just woke up and found that you¡¯re not around. My head is spinning, and I¡¯m feeling kind of sick, and the worst part is that I have no memory ofst night.¡¯ ¡®I¡¯m sorry, Mate. I had to leave for another pack in the morning because of some urgent work, and I didn¡¯t want to disturb your beauty sleep.¡¯ ¡®Oh, okay!!¡¯ Ethlyn believed him. ¡®By the way, you were amazingst night. I love it.¡¯ She said, feeling shy. She was still young and was new to everything, so she just couldn¡¯t find the exact word to say about what she was talking about. ¡®I¡¯m d that you loved it. And you loved this so much; then we can do this frequently, you know.¡¯ Nathan said, on which her cheeks turned into a red tomato. ¡®By the way, here is some cash. Have you left it for me so that I can reach the beginning point of her pack with the cab?¡¯ She questioned, thinking everything on her own and smiling, thinking how thoughtful Nathan was, who kept in his mind that she didn¡¯t have money with her and remembered to leave some money for her. ¡®Yes! I did. I will talk to youter.¡¯ Nathan said, closing the mind link. FLASHBACK END ***** ¡°That bastard!! He lied to you, Ethlyn.¡± Calvin fumed in anger at Nathan. ¡°That money, I had left $500 for you thinking of you as a prostitute,¡± he added, and that was when he realized what he ended up speaking to her face. Calvin hissed and felt guilty for not using filters before speaking when he saw Ethlyn wincing at his choice of words, ¡°I¡­ I¡¯m sorry. I.. I¡­¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay,¡± Ethlyn said, trying to hide the pain in her eyes. ¡°Anyone else at your ce might have thought in the same way. Hell, the pack members who knew me all my life didn¡¯t think twice to call me by multiple names then; you were just a stranger who knew nothing about me.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be sad,¡± Calvin whispered softly, not liking to see her in this mood. ¡°Huh?¡± ¡°I mean, I don¡¯t want Rose to see you in this state; otherwise, she will think that I¡¯m the reason because of which you¡¯re upset,¡± Calvin said sternly, not showing her his soft side. He didn¡¯t want to fall for just her side of the story. He had to find the truth instead of believing her blindingly. ¡®How to mean! And I thought¡­ ¡®She thought and sighed. ¡°So, you never talked about that night again with Alpha Nathan in person?¡± Calvin asked. ¡°No.¡± Ethlyn shook her head. ¡°That¡¯s why I couldn¡¯t figure out that he lied to me. But yes, I came to know about all this a few days back when he was trying to mold our rtionship. That was when he epted that he wasn¡¯t with me nor had anything that happened with me.¡± ¡°When I asked him where he was that night, then he didn¡¯t have any answer about it. I even asked him whether he was with some woman then; he didn¡¯t deny that part.¡± Ethlyn exined while Calvin prepared dough for Naan. ¡°Hmm. Do you think that he can be behind everything?¡± Calvin asked. ¡°I don¡¯t know. Maybe or Maybe not. But he looked like he was in great pain after knowing that I cheated on him with I didn¡¯t, obviously. I think I didn¡¯t do anything by my own choice or willingly. Also, he recently admitted that he can¡¯t stoop that low.¡± Ethlyn shared. ¡°Do you trust him?¡± Calvin asked to which Ethlyn couldn¡¯t reply anything to him. ¡°My brother onw says that whether there is trust or there is no trust. There is nothing in between. And looking at your confused face, the answer is clear. So, stop stressing on your mind.¡± He added, wondering that do peopleplicate things by thinking so much. . #TBC 73 ¡°I have a way to find whether Alpha Nathan is included in all this or not?¡± Calvin said, chopping the garlic. ¡°How?¡± ¡°I will exin to you that after dinner, but you need to corporate.¡± ¡°I will. I surely will.¡± Ethlyn nodded her head. ¡°I will see at that moment.¡± ****** Hourster, ¡°You need my help in this way?¡± Ethlyn shrieked, looking at everything in front of her. ¡°I told you then, ¡®I will see at that moment.''¡± Calvin grinned, enjoying her expression. ¡°I thought you would have some n, but I didn¡¯t know that you would ask me to drink shots of tequ.¡± Ethlyn hissed in anger. ¡°This is one of the things that spoiled my life, and you¡¯re asking me to drink these stupid shots. NEVER.¡± Saying this, she started leaving when she heard Calvin speaking. ¡°If you leave right now, then don¡¯t you dare to tell others that it was a trap because, at that moment, I will remind you that you had one chance to find the truth, and what you did was walked away,¡± Calvin said. ¡°I want to check your tolerance level so that we can find out whether it was really just shots or something else because of which you got intoxicated that soon,¡± he added. ¡°And what if I will get intoxicated for real and¡­ something¡­ something will happen between us again then? I don¡¯t trust a man like you.¡± Ethlyn pointed out. ¡°If something between us, then Rose will be blessed with a younger sister or brother.¡± Calvin teased to irritate Ethlyn more. ¡°Everything is funny for you, isn¡¯t it?¡± She asked, getting annoyed. ¡°No. It¡¯s funny to see that I¡¯m ready to fight with everyone for the mother of my pups, and she doesn¡¯t take a second to me the father of her pup as characterless.¡± Calvin taunted and pulled out a chocte bar from his pocket. ¡°I¡¯m sorry,¡± Ethlyn mumbled, but Calvin ignored her sorry and started munching his chocte bar. ¡°Hey, that¡¯s Rose¡¯s chocte.¡± She added when she recognized the wrapper of the chocte.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°So, what? I¡¯m her father. I can eat her choctes.¡± ¡°Exactly. You¡¯re her father, not her siblings.¡± ¡°My brother got these choctes for her. And he is my sibling, so indirectly, I have the right to this chocte.¡± Calvin argued with her. Ethlyn wanted to ask when did his brothere here but then brushed that topic because that was not the main topic going on here. She looked at the shots of tequ. She had to take the risk to know the truth. ¡°Don¡¯t waste your time overthinking. Drink it quickly when it is chilled.¡± Calvin said, reading her confused face. It was clear that she wanted to drink but was hesitating. All she needed was just a little push which Calvin did, and one by one, she drank all the shots without salt and lime. A moment passed, and they both stared at each other, waiting for some reaction from Ethlyn¡¯s end but except for making a weird face after drinking it. ¡°I¡¯m not feeling dizzy to that state that I can¡¯t even stand,¡± Ethlyn mumbled. ¡°Do you think I drank tequ of another brand?¡± She asked. ¡°I don¡¯t know. Maybe. Let¡¯s try all the brands one by one every night.¡± Calvin suggested, but a part of him had already figured out that there was no chance that a werewolf could get dizzy to that extent which Ethlyn told him. Was she drugged? Most probably, yes! Someone might have spiked her drink. But who? The more he used to think about everything, the more he wanted to kick Alpha Nathan. ¡°I can¡¯t wait to try it every night. If possible, then can we go to some pub and try all kinds of tequ?¡± Ethlyn asked, bing restless because she wanted to solve this mystery as soon as possible. ¡°I know the pack is already going with the hunter issue, but if it is possible, then, please!! Please!!¡± She requested, more like begged desperately. ¡°You sure? You¡¯re not drunk?¡± ¡°Not in the same way. That night I wasn¡¯t even able to walk, but today I can dance.¡± She said and started dancing by jumping here and there like a monkey. Calvin¡¯s eyes widened, seeing this type of weird dance and her weird steps. ¡®Is she trying to copy ballet moves by jumping here and there?¡¯ Calvin asked Keanu. ¡®How would I know, human?¡¯ Keanu asked in equal confusion. ¡°Okay, enough,¡± Calvin said, but Ethlyn kept jumping. ¡°Enough.¡± He said, but Ethlyn was still jumping. He sighed and went near her to stop her. ¡°Stop this disaster.¡± He said, holding her arms. It was when Ethlyn looked at him with her teary eyes. ¡°Thank you, Alpha Calvin. Thank you for helping me.¡± She said and wiped her tears. ¡°Thank you for believing me.¡± ¡°Oh, hello!! Stop being so emotional, and stop this shower of tears. I¡¯m doing nothing for you but for my daughter and me, and the only reason I want to find out all the truth is to kick you out of our life. So, don¡¯t be so thankful.¡± Calvin said rudely because he hated to see her crying like this. ¡°The moment I start thinking like you¡¯re an amazing person behind an irritating and shameless man, you prove to me how wrong I¡¯m about you,¡± Ethlyn said, wiping her tears in anger. ¡°And listen to me very carefully, I¡¯m not going anywhere away from my daughter¡¯s life, and you will realize that after discovering everything.¡± ¡°We will see.¡± Calvin grinned, seeing her in anger. . #TBC 74 ¡°Thankkkk¡­ youuuu, Alphaaaaa Calvinnnn¡± Ethlyn slurred after trying a lot of drinks after drinking all three types of tequ, nco, Reposado, and A?ejo. She started feeling a bit dizzy after trying everything. That was when she realized that she was indeed trapped. She realized the fact that Calvin had realized it a long time ago. After that, she started drinking everything in anger, in pain, in confusion, and in tension, thinking, what now? She just couldn¡¯t go and grabbed Nathan¡¯s neck without any proof. He was an Alpha, not just a normal werewolf whom she just could beat the shit out of him. While she was spending her time wasting herself on Alcohol, Calvin used his mind and sources to get figure out what to do next. ¡°Stop thanking me. Let¡¯s go.¡± Calvin said in irritation, trying to make her stand, but she wasn¡¯t even able to stand on her feet. He sighed and carried her in his arms before mind-linking Lemieux to close the door of his house. Calvin didn¡¯t leave the pack thatte; instead, he visited Lemieux¡¯s ce because he had a hobby of keeping a collection of all types of drinks from all ages. ¡°Thannnkkk youuu, Alphaa!!!!¡± Ethlyn thanked him again and giggled. ¡°Stop giggling. Is this how a mother should act? This is what you¡¯re going to teach Rose? Huh?¡± He asked in anger shutting her mouth. She blinked her eyes a couple of times before speaking. ¡°Rose doesn¡¯t have to¡­ learn anything from me. Nor can I te.. teach her anything because she has the best father in the whole world.¡± She said with a smile and pinched Calvin¡¯s cheek. ¡°I¡¯m jealous that you have¡­ have left no space for me in her life.¡± ¡°That¡¯s not true,¡± Calvin responded, not knowing that these things were going on in Ethlyn¡¯s mind. ¡°I have raised Rose, and I know that she wants you in her life.¡± ¡°Just for you,¡± Ethlyn said, recalling her conversation with Roselet. ¡°She told me so. And you don¡¯t want me.¡± ¡°You are thinking too much,¡± Calvin said, making her lie on the bed. ¡°We will talk about it tomorrow, okay?¡± Saying this, he was about to leave when Ethlyn wrapped her hand around his neck. ¡°We won¡¯t talk because all you will do is scold me for drinking so much, and you might use this as a reason to show how irresponsible I am as a mother role!!¡± Ethlyn pouted after speaking this. Calvin studied her face closely, and then his eyesnded on her lips. ¡°Is it tempting?¡± Ethlyn asked, and a yful smile appeared on her lips. ¡°Not that much. I have seen more beautiful lips than this one.¡± Calvin responded back. He tried to move away from her, but Ethlyn tightened her grip around his neck. ¡°Eth¡­. Cinder¡± He looked at her face and realized it was her wolf. ¡°What are you doing, Cinder? Let me go.¡± Calvin said before his wolf took control of his body.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Sleep with me.¡± She spoke, giving goosebumps to Calvin. ¡°Bu¡­¡± ¡°Ssshh!!¡± She ced her finger on Calvin¡¯s lips. ¡°I will go crazy because of the sexual tension between us because of your mark. So, sleep with me.¡± With this, she pulled him forcefully, making him fall on her, and his lips touched her nose. Calvin quickly moved away andy down on the bed beside her, maintaining some distance. But Cinder wasn¡¯t Ethlyn; she reached near him and snuggled into his chest, cing her hand on his waist. Calvin tried to sleep but couldn¡¯t. His mind was busy thinking about various things. He didn¡¯t realize it was around four already until he felt someone trying to mind-link him. ¡®Will be there in five minutes.¡¯ He said before closing the mind link again. He removed her hand from his waist. He tried to leave when Ethlyn quickly lifted her head and looked at the person disturbing her sleep. ¡°Alpha? What¡­ ¡°Dare you to ask that question? Freshen up and join me in the training ground.¡± He said and left the room. Ethlyn sighed and closed her eyes, recalling how her wolf asked him to sleep with her. She hissed when she realized that he would definitely think of her as characterless now, but she would me the one-sided bond. She thought of waking up in a minute, and when she opened her eyes, the sun was now ascending the sky. It was no darker outside. ¡°Holy shit!¡± She cursed and checked the time. ¡°It¡¯s already seventy-twenty. I¡¯m so dead.¡± She said, running into the washroom. Changing her clothes, she came running out of the room and found Calvin drinking coffee silently. ¡®He is already back from training. He will scold me again.¡¯ She thought and found him turning his gaze toward her at her presence. Ethlyn started wondering whether she should return back to the room or walk toward the kitchen to prepare lemonade for herself. ¡°Do you always have this much time to decide something?¡± Calvin asked more like mocked. Ethlyn didn¡¯t say anything and walked toward the kitchen, but the moment she took a step past Calvin, he grabbed her arms and signaled toward something on the dining table. A ss of lemonade, a tablet, and normal water was kept in it. Calvin left her arms when he realized that she had already seen what he had arranged for her. ¡°Thank you, Alpha,¡± She muttered, taking ce near him. ¡°And I¡¯m sorry for wasting myself on Alcohol. I promise that will never happen again. And I¡¯m sorry for forcing you to sleep with me. That¡­ that, too, won¡¯t happen again. Also, I¡¯m sorry for not being able to attend training in time; I had just closed my eyes for a minute and¡­ ended up sleeping for more than three hours.¡± . #TBC 75 Throughout the time, she was looking at the ss of lemonade that he had prepared for her. When she didn¡¯t hear anything from Calvin¡¯s end, she lifted her eyes and looked at him, who was eating cookies. It observed him carefully from top to bottom; He was just in shorts. It looked it he had a habit of eating something just after arriving from the training because he looked very hungry by the amount of dedication he had toward his mini-breakfast. ¡®He is damn too handsome.¡¯ She studied his body. Her eyes couldn¡¯t leave the sight of his nipple. ¡°Done staring at me?¡± He mocked, and finally, their eyes met again. ¡°Don¡¯t get any wrong ideas. I have seen better. I was justparing them in my mind.¡± She said, feeling her cheeks flush slightly. The moment she lied, her heartbeat rose, and she mentally prayed in her mind that he couldn¡¯t hear it. ¡°Really? I didn¡¯t know you liked doing such things.¡± Calvin mocked her, finishing his mini-breakfast. Ethlyn was about to answer him when she saw a lipstick mark on the left side of his neck.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Wait!!¡± She quickly left her seat and stood in front of Calvin. ¡°Whose lipstick¡¯s mark is this?¡± She questioned, feeling extremely angry. ¡°You said that you have no one in your life except Rose,¡± Ethlyn asked, getting irritated for no reason. Calvin chuckled and pulled her close to her, grabbing her butt. ¡°Are you getting jealous?¡± he asked, leaning toward her lips. Ethlyn quickly changed her face in another direction, ¡°Alpha¡­ Alpha Calvin, this is not¡­ not the answer to my question.¡± ¡°Why¡¯re you turning your face away, huh? Look into my eyes if you want the answer to this question.¡± Calvin whispered into her ear and enjoyed how much she was getting affected by his touch, his voice, and everything rted to him. Ethlyn looked at him before speaking, ¡°I have never seen a shameless man like you who wants to admit his affairs by looking into my eyes.¡± ¡°This is the lipstick of the woman who¡­.¡± He paused, increasing the suspense for Ethlyn. ¡°Who?¡± Ethlyn questioned. ¡°Who is your mistress?¡± She filled in the ck instead of noticing their position. ¡°Who is in my arms right now.¡± Calvin corrected her with a chuckle. ¡°That¡¯s a lie. I didn¡¯t do anything.¡± ¡°Really? Didn¡¯t you wear lipstick of this color yesterday?¡± He questioned, shutting Ethlyn¡¯s mouth. Both Calvin and Ethlyn had no idea when she ended up leaving her lipstick mark on his neck. Maybe when he carried her in his arms or maybe when she snuggled in his chest, hiding her face near her neck. It was Calvin¡¯s friends who observed that mark. Calvin immediately wanted to remove it, but he let it be to show the pack members how close he was with Ethlyn, and the fact that he had a faint scent of Ethlyn on him was also helping him to prove that whatever they were watching and smelling was true. He forgot to clean it even after returning from training. Little did he know, the person who was behind it was demanding an exnation about this lipstick mark. He couldn¡¯t help but feel amused by her behavior. Ethlyn¡¯s cheek turned crimson red when she realized that she was getting mad at Calvin for no reason. She wanted to earth to open and swallow her so that she would be saved from this embarrassment. ¡°I¡¯m¡­ ¡°Sorry again?¡± Calvin mocked her, cutting her in between. ¡°You don¡¯t think twice before opening your big mouth, do you?¡± He questioned. Ethlyn started, looking at the floor, feeling guilty. ¡°Aahhh!!¡± She hissed in pain when Calvin pinched her ass as hard as he could. That was when she realized that his hand was still on her ass. ¡°What kind of behavior is this?¡± She questioned, trying to remove his hand from her butt, but he grinned, enjoying her wiggling left and right in his arms. ¡°There is a party at Zordan¡¯s ce to wee female Beta officially in the pack. Even my parents will attend it, and they would be disappointed after learning what the mother of their granddaughter did thest night?¡± He grinned. Ethlyn stopped wiggling, and her face paled. She knew that she wasn¡¯t a woman who drank on a regr basis. Hell, it was the second time she drank yesterday. The only mistake that she made was she crossed her limit to the extent that she wasn¡¯t even able to walk. ¡°You won¡¯t tell them anything,¡± Ethlyn warned. ¡°Try me,¡± Calvin smirked. ¡°And do you know what mom and dad hate those who drink?¡± he stated more as he asked. ¡°Please, you won¡¯t. I¡¯m sorry for that.¡± Immediately Ethlyn¡¯s voice turned soft. She didn¡¯t want them to think of her as a careless and irresponsible mother of this incident. ¡°I drank so much confidence because I knew I was with you and also because I knew that you won¡¯t take advantage of me. Because I trusted you. Please, please, please, don¡¯t portray me as a bad woman in front of your parents.¡± She requested. ¡°Go. It¡¯s time to wake up the princess.¡± Calvin said, removing his hand from her. ¡°You¡­ you won¡¯t tell aboutst night to your parents, right?¡± Ethlyn asked. ¡°You will stay a second more than YES.¡± The moment Ethlyn heard this, she flew from there. Calvin smiled, shaking her head. ¡®Because I trusted you.¡¯ Her words rang in his mind. He opened the fridge to check what he had to cook for breakfast, but that smile didn¡¯t leave his lips. ¡®I drank so much confidence because I knew I was with you.¡¯ ***** #TBC 76 ¡°Wake up, dear!!¡± ¡°Five minutes more, Mommy,¡± Roselet said, shaking her butt, which she had lifted in the air while her face was hidden in the pillow. Ethlyn found this cute and spanked. Roselet quickly sat in the bed and stared at Ethlyn before speaking, ¡°Daddy never hit me while trying to wake me up.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t hit you that hard, sweetheart. It¡¯s just your butt was looking cute, so I just couldn¡¯t control myself.¡± Ethlyn exined, pinching Roselet¡¯s cheek, but she didn¡¯t smile at all.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Dadddddddyyyyyy¡± Roselet screamed. After a few seconds, ¡°Yes, love.¡± Calvin reached into her room as fast as he could. ¡°Mommy spanked me and is saying that my butt was looking cute. Didn¡¯t you tell me that I should never let anyone touch your butt, and if anyone does that, then I should tell you about it so that you will spank that person so that he or she will never think of spanking me?¡± Roselet reminded Calvin, widening Ethlyn¡¯s eyes. Even Calvin¡¯s expression was no different. Calvin told her so that no one could think of taking advantage of Roselet, thinking of her as a pup but now hearing her, he realized that he should have told her ¡®any MALE instead of anyone.¡¯ ¡°Love, that is for strangers and for males. It won¡¯t look good spanking your daddy spanking females, right?¡± Calvin said, trying to exin his daughter. ¡°You¡¯re saying this to save mommy, aren¡¯t you?¡± Roselet questioned. ¡°But it won¡¯t work for me. You have to keep your word, daddy.¡± ¡°Okay. I will. Just go and freshen up.¡± Calvin said, pointing toward the washroom. Roselet nodded her head and went into the washroom. ¡°Moon Goddess!!¡± Ethlyn sighed in contentment. ¡°Thank you for lying. I thought she would leave only after watching you spanking me.¡± She said in relief. ¡°Who said I lied to her?¡± Calvin questioned, rubbing his hands against each other. ¡°Alpha Calvin, No!!!!¡± Ethlyn said, ready to run from there. ¡°How could you spank my daughter?¡± Calvin asked yfully. ¡°It was looking so cute. And what do you mean by ¡®my daughter¡¯? She is OUR daughter as well.¡± She pointed out. Calvin tried to reach near her, and in a second, Ethlyn ran to the other side of the bed. ¡°Dare you, Alpha Calvin.¡± ¡°Really? You dare me?¡± Calvin grinned. ¡°Dadddddddyyyyy, don¡¯t leave, mommy,¡± Roselet screamed from the washroom. ¡°Sure, love,¡± Calvin smirked. ¡°Aaaaaaaa¡± Ethlyn screamed and started running to escape this. * ¡°Mommy, daddy spanked you hard?¡± Roselet asked when Ethlyn was wiping her wet body after a bath. ¡°Why did you provoke dad against me? Don¡¯t you love me?¡± Ethlyn asked her, narrowing her eyes and ignoring Rosele¡¯s question because how could she exin how hard her daddy spanked her mommy? ¡®Damn, my buttock still hurts.¡¯ She mentally thought, recalling how Calvin spanked her using his Alpha power. He could have spanked slowly as well, just like she did to Roselet. ¡®But we can¡¯t deny the pleasure that we felt after that.¡¯ Cinder said. ¡®Not again.¡¯ Ethlyn said, rolling her eyes. It angered her more that she enjoyed it. It was more like excitement and thrill to her than punishment for spanking Roselet. ¡°I love you, Mommy.¡± Roselet quickly hugged. ¡°But I love daddy a little more than you.¡± Saying this, she kissed Ethlyn¡¯s cheek. ¡°Hmm. I know.¡± Ethlyn mumbled, kissing her back. Calvin had raised her and fulfilled all the responsibilities of both mother and father, so Ethlyn could understand the reason why he was her¡­ their daughter¡¯s favorite?¡± ¡°Are you sad?¡± ¡°No, sweetheart,¡± Ethlyn responded and then helped a little bit in wearing her school dress, rest Roselet managed it on her own. Ethlyn made her wear socks because Roselet didn¡¯t know how to do it properly. Then instead of Calvin, she fed Roselet breakfast with her own hand. A part of Calvin wanted to be selfish and didn¡¯t want to share any work rted to Roselet with her, but at the same time, he remembered how Ethlyn too longed for her involvement in Roselet¡¯s life. If he would keep handling the position of both mother and father in Roselet, then Ethlyn would never get a chance, and this would be unfair to both mother and daughter. Calvin wasn¡¯t much concerned about Ethlyn, but he didn¡¯t want Roselet to look down at her father the moment she would start understanding everything. So, he used that time in his other works. After half an hour, ¡°Oh, someone is using the time that used to be mine toplete his work.¡± Calvin heard Roselet speaking and raised his head from hisptop to see her. ¡°My love is jealous? Hmm,¡± He asked, keeping theptop aside to get ab and rubber band to tie Roselet¡¯s hair because Ethlyn didn¡¯t know how to tie someone¡¯s else hair. ¡°Yeah!! Little bit. But I know I will always be your priority.¡± Roselet responded, sitting on the bed to get her hair done. ¡°But at the same time, I want you to make mommy your priority as well.¡± ¡°Your wish is mymand, highness!!¡± ¡°It¡¯s a party tonight. So, will you take her to the shopping? I mean, you have a lot of clothes, and I have a lot of dresses, but mommy doesn¡¯t have much.¡± Roselet said, thinking about what she had observed. ¡°If I¡¯m the princess of this pack, then mommy is also a queen, right daddy? So, she must look like a queen.¡± ¡°Okay. I will take her to the shopping.¡± Calvin said and kissed her hair. ¡°Your hair is done.¡± . #TBC 77 ¡°Thank you so much, daddy. You¡¯re the best.¡± Roselet said, turning her face toward him and hugging her tightly. ¡°I know. I¡¯m the best.¡± Calvin smiled, hugging her back. ¡°Daddddyyy¡± ¡°Yes, love.¡± ¡°I want one more thing.¡± She whispered in a low tone, wondering if her daddy would fulfill it or not. ¡°Hmm. I¡¯m listening.¡± Calvin said, clearly understanding the way of his daughter. ¡°Can I have a baby brother or sister too? Just like Artin has Artin, Xavier has Xander, You have Aunt Lee and Aunt Tee, Aunt Caroline has Uncle Colton, you and Aunt Lee and Aunt Tee, Mommy, has Reva, Grandma Sophia has Grandpa Oliver, Grandpa Owen, and Grandpa Oscar.¡± Roselet pointed out the name of all the people she could remember with siblings. ¡°But Zordy doesn¡¯t have anyone, and even your uncle Artemis and uncle Santino are a single pup of their parents.¡± Calvin pointed out. ¡°But the number of people with siblings is more than the number of people with no siblings. Can I also get one?¡± Roselet said, pouting and showing her puppy eyes. ¡°I can¡¯t say YES without discussing it with your mommy. And the other truth is that I won¡¯t talk with her about this topic, at least not now.¡± ¡°Why?¡± ¡°Because love, your mommy lost around five years of her life in hospital. There could be a lot of things that she might want to do in her life, but she couldn¡¯t. So, at first, let her live her life first. Just like Rapunzel wanted to explore a lot of things before getting married and having kids.¡± ¡°Oooo.. you mean to say that mommy to has something on her wishlist?¡± Roselet asked after summing up two into two together. ¡°Yes!!¡± Calvin replied and sighed in relief that Roselet believed his story. Because he just couldn¡¯t say NO to her. She was his weakness. ¡°Moreover, your mommy is still young; she can have pups even after five years.¡± ¡°That¡¯s true, daddy. But I¡¯m worried about you because you¡¯re getting old.¡± ¡°What did you say?¡± Calvin started tickling her, making Roseletugh louder. ¡°I¡¯m old, huh? I¡¯m old.¡± ¡°Mom¡­ mommy!!¡± Roselet cried for help. ¡°Stop it, please!! Alpha Calvin.¡± Ethlyn intervened, entering the room. She wasn¡¯t far away from his room. In fact, she was silently listening to their conversation while cleaning the used tes and dining table. She surely didn¡¯t know how to cook, but she did know the basic work of the house. And she felt herself falling toward Calvin¡¯s words again. ¡°Yes, daddy. Tickle mommy instead of me.¡± Roselet said, taking a deep breath. ¡°WHAT?¡± Ethlyn looked at her daughter in shock, who always used tond her into trouble. ¡®Is she really my daughter or a daughter of a devil?¡¯ She thought and looked at Calvin, who was grinning evilly. ¡°Alpha Calvin, No! No!!!¡± She screamed when he ran toward her, and she ran from there toward her room. She couldn¡¯t understand what was happening to her. First, she got spanked by him, and now this. All thanks to her tiny little daughter. Ethlyn was about to close it, but Calvin entered the room, pushing her away. ¡°Moon Goddess!! I love chasing you.¡± He grinned while Ethlyn looked at him like a scared kitten. She quickly ran into the washroom to lock the door of it, but as usual, she failed again. ¡°Where will you go now, kitten?¡± he teased after finally catching his prey. * On the other side!! Roselet checked the time and realized it was time for her school. She didn¡¯t disturb her parents; grabbing her bag, she walked out of the penthouse and found Lemieux outside, just on time as usual. ¡°Alone?¡± Lemieux asked in surprise. ¡°Yes, Mommy and Daddy are busy,¡± Roselet replied with a wink. ¡°Hahhahhaa!!¡± Lemieuxughed and held her hand to take her to the school. * ¡°Rose!!¡± Ethlyn used it as an excuse to escape this beast, who was grinning happily after catching his prey. ¡°She has to go to school.¡± She added.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°She knows that,¡± Calvin said, walking toward her, on which Ethlyn moved back. ¡°I¡­ I have to drop her.¡± She said and tried to leave when she had a wall behind her, and there was no way she could escape him, but Calvin ced his hands on either side of her head, blocking her way. He was enjoying everything that was happening around him, especially Ethlyn¡¯s fear and the loud pounding sound of her heart. ¡°Lemi will drop her.¡± He said and watched her looking at his lips. ¡°Want me to kiss you?¡± He questioned with a smirk. That was when Ethlyn¡¯s gaze met his, and anger med in her eyes. She tried to push him away, but he didn¡¯t move an inch. ¡°You¡¯re so weak.¡± Calvin pointed out. He felt like a baby was pushing him away. ¡°And you love irritating and annoying wolves below your rank, don¡¯t you?¡± Ethlyn hissed, trying to push him away. She tried to escape, but she couldn¡¯t when Calvin pressed his body against her. Calvin didn¡¯t mind her words because he knew whatever she was saying was because of what she was experiencing with him. Little did she know that Calvin wasn¡¯t a bully, but yes, he used to irritate her sisters a lot. ¡°Alphaaaaaaaa¡­ aaaa¡± She started screaming,ughing, and wiggling when Calvin started tickling her. She kept throwing her hand, here and there, because ofughter and ended up turning the knob of the shower. ¡°What the fuck!!¡± She cried when cold water started drenching Calvin and her. Calvin left ticking her andughed at her expression. Ethlyn was about to yell at him for all this, but she just couldn¡¯t because he looked so handsome with genuineughter on his face that she didn¡¯t want to snatch it from him. . #TBC 78 The rest of the time, he used to grin or smile to annoy her, but this wasn¡¯t one of them. She studied his feature properly. He had light brown hair, just like Roselet, with brown eyes. Now that his hair was wet, a lot of hair fell on his forehead, giving him a new look, and she couldn¡¯t deny that he looked handsome in that as well. His face was strong, defined with a sharp jawline. Her eyes moved slightly to his pink lips. She was sure that his lips would have touched her that night, but she couldn¡¯t recall that part. At the same time, she hadn¡¯t forgotten how great that night was. She had had sex with Nathan after that night a couple of times, as well, but she always used topare those nights with the other night at the mating ball. Now she realized why Nathan couldn¡¯t give her the same satisfaction level again because he was never him in the first ce. ¡®I want to taste him, Ethlyn.¡¯ Cinder said, looking at him lustfully. ¡®No.¡¯ Ethlyn quickly said, but her eyes widened when Cinder started fighting for control. All of a sudden, Calvin¡¯sughter died when Ethlyn flipped the position, mming him against the wall. He saw Cinder in control of Ethlyn¡¯s body. He saw the hot raw need in her eyes. ¡°Laughing at my innocent human?¡± She asked,ing dangerously close to him and smirking, hearing the loud thudding sound of his heart which was indicating that she wasn¡¯t the only one who was getting affected. She ced her palm on his chest and started leaning close to him. Calvin¡¯s breath hitched when he realized what was going to happen next. Did he want this? He wasn¡¯t sure about it, but Keanu was positive that he wanted this. Cinder enjoyed touching his hard chest, and slowly, she grabbed his chest, giving it a squeeze. Calvin hissed in pleasure, she kept leaning forward, but instead of going toward lips, she changed her route to the area where one bear mate¡¯s mark. She nted a soft kiss on the crook of his neck. Calvin realized what she was going to do. Mark him back andplete the bond.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. He had to mark Ethlyn because, at that moment, he felt that was the right thing to do but was he want to get marked by her? He wasn¡¯t sure about it. And he didn¡¯t want to make this decision in a rush. In the next moment, Calvin pushed her away, shaking his in disapproval. ¡°Give control to your human, Cinder. And get ready. We are going to Mall. And then we have to go somewhere else to find the real culprit, okay?¡± He said and stormed out of the washroom. Seeing this, Cinder windered and slipped against the wall under her buttock, and touched the floor. She felt like getting rejected again, and maybe it would be official when Calvin would find his fated mate. *** On the other side, Calvin was feeling restless, fighting with his own wolf, who was growling at him for pushing Cinder away like that. She might have felt rejected. ¡®It¡¯s all your fault because of which she behaved like this.¡¯ Keanu med Calvin. ¡®No matter how much you me me for what happened now, but you can¡¯t say that I had a choice other than marking Ethlyn. How could I sit silently and listen to anything like that about the woman who gave birth to my daughter? If Roselet would have been at my ce, then I¡¯m sure that she would have gone against all the pack members even though she is barely five.¡¯ Calvin said, shutting Keanu¡¯s mouth. ¡®So, what now?¡¯ ¡®I¡¯m not thinking of getting marked by her. Not until the whole truth will be out.¡¯ Calvin said in determination. An hourter, Calvin and Ethlyn left the pack together for the shopping, just like Roselet had suggested to Calvin. If not her, then his mother, who was going to arrive in the evening, would have told him the same. That was why Calvin always used to listen to all words of Roselet carefully because even though she was a pup, a lot of things that she used to end up speaking innocently used to be right. ¡°Is Cinder okay?¡± Calvin couldn¡¯t help himself from asking about her wolf. ¡°Umm.. yeah,¡± Ethlyn replied. ¡°She just doesn¡¯t want to talk with me and has blocked me.¡± She added. Silence!!! Both started feeling awkward about the silence between them. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯m sorry!!¡± Both said to each other. ¡°Why are you saying sorry?¡± Ethlyn asked. ¡°It¡¯s Cinder¡¯s mistake. She shouldn¡¯t have crossed the limit.¡± She added. ¡°It¡¯s not her mistake at all, Ethlyn. Stop ming her. If anyone here is to me, then it¡¯s me. We are feeling this tension because of what I did to you both. But I did what I felt was right at that moment. Nothing else.¡± he added. Cinder whimpered, hearing Calvin¡¯s words but remained silent under Ethlyn¡¯s mind. After reaching the Mall, Ethlyn didn¡¯t want to take anything costly with Calvin¡¯s money but whatever Calvin chose for her was expensive. Yes, Calvin chose dresses and other clothes for her. When he observed her checking the price of the clothes and finding them expensive, she quickly used to cancel that dress. Once he was done with dresses, he took her to get bags for her, but Ethlyn started applying the same method, so in the end, Calvin got multiple different types of bags for her. ¡°Why are you spending so much money on me? I can¡¯t return you so much ever in my life.¡± Ethlyn asked in tension. ¡°You don¡¯t have to return anything,¡± Calvin said casually. ¡°How don¡¯t I have to? I¡¯m already staying at your ce, using all your things and now this. Everything is too much for me, Alpha Calvin.¡± Ethlyn spoke. . #TBC 79 ¡°And it will be better that I will be within my limit to others who know of our fight; you can point out anytime that everything that I use or wear is given by you. I don¡¯t want to go through that reality check again.¡± She added, recalling how Nathan had told her. ¡®Pack her things? What¡¯s here that she has earned on her own? Everything belongs to me. So, give them back to me.¡¯ Nathan had said about her ring and the pendant she was wearing. ¡°Again?¡± Calvin repeated her words. ¡°What do you mean by that ¡®AGAIN,¡¯ Ethlyn?¡± He asked, clenching his jaw. Though Ethlyn didn¡¯t answer his question, but he understood on his own. He mentally nned to give Nathan a powerful punch whenever he was going to meet him next time. ¡°Leave it. Forget that I even asked that question.¡± Calvin mumbled. ¡°And if you¡¯re wondering how you can repay me the price of these things, then start working instead of stopping me. Because there is no way, I¡¯m going to stop myself from buying everything for you.¡± ¡°Start working? There is no job that will pay me this much, that too, to a woman who had justpleted her studies.¡± Ethlyn frowned at his words.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°Then dream higher, Ethlyn. It¡¯s your fault that you made yourself incapable of nothing.¡± Calvin taunted. ¡°Or you¡¯re among those women who want a powerful man to be powerful.¡± ¡°I¡¯m not a gold-digger.¡± Ethlyn hissed when her temper rose. ¡°I wanted to be a nurse practitioner. It¡¯s just that¡­ I couldn¡¯t continue my studies.¡± ¡°Oh, that¡¯s why you are useless in both the kitchen and the training ground.¡± Calvin mocked, on which she red at him. Calvin grinned, seeing her like this rather than the sad one. Moon Goddess, he liked the fire in her eyes. ¡°You can prove to me that you¡¯re not useless by proving to me that you¡¯re good in studies.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t have to prove anything to you,¡± Ethlyn said. ¡°So, you want to remain useless all your life?¡± Calvin taunted her. ¡°I¡­I will learn how to cook and do all the household work. And I will also learn how to fight.¡± Ethlyn pointed out. ¡°Even after doing all those things, you won¡¯t be self-dependent. You want Rose all by yourself, don¡¯t you?¡± Calvin asked to which Ethlyn nodded her head. ¡°How will you raise her? On your parent¡¯s money? You will have to look up to your parents to fulfill her wish. And the part you¡¯re good for nothing. No one will keep you as Beta female even though you¡¯re beta¡¯s blood in your vein. And no one will keep you as omega as well because you don¡¯t know any household work.¡± Ethlyn wasn¡¯t liking that Calvin was making her feel that she was good for nothing and was useless, but at the same time, she couldn¡¯t deny that he was right about everything. ¡°Come on, we have to go into the footwear section now,¡± Calvin said, dragging her from there. ¡°You might be thinking that I¡¯m insulting you by showing you your ce, but there is nothing wrong in epting what you¡¯re. And to be honest, you have done nothing in front of my eyes to earn my respect. Any achievements? Nope. Not at all.¡± ¡°I know how you are feeling now because my father showed me the same mirror when I didn¡¯t want to keep Rose with me,¡± Calvin said, to which Ethlyn looked at him, getting surprised because it didn¡¯t look like Calvin was raising Roselet as a burden. ¡°I didn¡¯t want to keep Rose with me; instead, I suggested them to raise her, and that was when dad showed me my real ce. If I wouldn¡¯t have raised Rose, then he would have kicked me out of his will. That was when I realized that I was nothing without dad¡¯s money. NOTHING.¡± ¡°And then I decided to reach at least that level where I wouldn¡¯t need his money and financial support to survive, and between all this, I fell in love with Rose madly and unconditionally. I mean, I never hated her before, butter, I just couldn¡¯t stay a day without looking at her pretty face.¡± He said with a smile. ¡°There is always someone behind anyone¡¯s sess. And I have given that reward to Rose in my life. Because of her, my parents are now proud of me.¡± Calvin said before continuing, ¡°Everyone has a misconception, especially your parents, that right now we are together and you¡¯re staying with me because my parents paid me a visit, but that¡¯s wrong. My dad can¡¯t threaten or create any kind of pressure on me anymore. That¡¯s the power of standing on your own feet, and that¡¯s why I will suggest you to start your studies. It¡¯s never toote to start something new.¡± ¡°You want to learn household work. Go ahead, learn that but what next?¡± Calvin questioned. ¡°If your father didn¡¯t threaten you or create any kind of pressure on you, then why are you letting me stay near Rose?¡± Ethlyn asked because she had a misunderstanding that Calvin¡¯s parents forced him to let her near Roselet, but if that wasn¡¯t the case, then why was he doing a favor to her? ¡°Out of everything, you heard only that part?¡± Calvin hissed in annoyance. He had given the biggest lecture of his life, and the woman with him just ignored it, seriously? ¡°Alpha Calvin, that¡¯s not the answer to my question.¡± Ethlyn pointed out. ¡°I have observed that you¡¯re blunt and use no filter while speaking, so please tell me the truth.¡± . #TBC 80 ¡°Ahh!! That¡¯s because I had to hit two birds with one stone. My parents and my brother. The rtionship between Lee and my dad wasn¡¯t good when she decided to choose her mate¡¯s side by going against everyone. And the other reason is that I wanted Colton to ept our mate. I mean, we are twins, so there is a high chance that we will have the same mate. Umm¡­ so¡­¡± ¡°So, you used me to get your work done?¡± Ethlyn asked in disbelief. ¡°Not act like a saint. Your parents nned to use my parents against me. What did go wrong if I did the same?¡± Calvin asked, shrugging his shoulder. ¡°You are casual toward giving up on your fated mate. It makes me feel like you were nning this for a long. You can share with your other brother.¡± Ethlyn suggested. ¡°I don¡¯t share, and my brother doesn¡¯t have anything that I want. And I know he needs a mate more than me. And my wolf agrees to that part. So, we were ready to make that sacrifices from day one.¡± Calvin said. ¡®Maybe Colton¡¯s wolf is more dangerous than his. So, Alpha Calvin wants to give up on his mate for his brother.¡¯ Ethlyn thought. ¡®And that also means that we¡¯re not going anywhere from Alpha Calvin¡¯s life.¡¯ Cinder finally spoke after a long time in excitement. ¡®I was getting worried for nothing. We won¡¯t get rejected by him.¡¯ She added, howling happily.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. Ethlyn didn¡¯t say anything at that moment because she didn¡¯t want to kill her wolf¡¯s excitement but what she had learned from life was that the table of life could be turned anytime. **** On the other side, A woman wiped the blood from her lips; feeling pity for her situation, she spoke, ¡°I hope to meet you soon, Mate.¡± * After an hour, ¡°This diamond set is beautiful, isn¡¯t it?¡± Calvin said. Now, they were in the jewelry store. Ethlyn felt that she didn¡¯t belong there. All the people around were wearing damn too expensive and beautiful dresses, along with costly jewelry. ¡°Alpha¡­ now it¡¯s too much. I don¡¯t want these all things.¡± Ethlyn whispered when she saw him buying the ninth set of jewelry of all different varieties and designs. ¡°These are for Rose when she will grow old. Until then, you can use it.¡± Calvin replied, winking at her. ¡°All right, pack all these.¡± ¡°Sure, sir.¡± The salesman said, nodding his head. ¡°Washroom?¡± Calvin asked. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, sir. The washroom in our store is under maintenance. The other washroom is on the same floor of the mall.¡± The salesman replied. ¡°Okay then. You can prepare the invoice. I will see you at the billing counter after a few minutes¡± Saying this, Calvin left there. And even the salesman left from there after giving her a small smile to her to get the bill prepared for the purchase.¡± ¡°Sir, one of the earnings of the diamond set is missing.¡± Ethlyn heard another saleswoman saying this to the store manager. ¡°What? How is this possible?¡± The manager hissed in anger, keeping his tone as low as he could. ¡°Search it quickly; I don¡¯t care how. Until then, I¡¯m going to check the CCTV camera,¡± he said before leaving from there. Ethlyn unintentionally heard the conversation and tried to hear the sound of the heartbeat of everyone present there to check if anyone had stolen that ring, but their heartbeats were normal. It looked like no one had stolen it. At the same time, the other salesman was tense and had no idea how to search for that diamond earning. He didn¡¯t have that much sry to pay the amount equal to the diamond earnings. He wanted to go and check every customer¡¯s purse and bags, but they all looked like high-ss people who could have gotten offended easily until his eyes were on Ethlyn, who was sitting at the ce where Calvin had left her with a couple of shopping bags in her hand. He quickly reached near her before speaking, ¡°Excuse me.¡± ¡°Yes?¡± ¡°I have to check your shopping bags because we lost one earning of a diamond set. And it¡¯s very costly.¡± He said rudely, looking at Ethlyn from top to bottom. ¡°You should be searching it where you lost it instead ofing near me and asking to check my bags,¡± Ethlyn said calmly and saw a couple of customers leaving the store. ¡°And what is it? The other customers are leaving the store, and you want to check my bags.¡± She frowned after asking this. ¡°See, Ma¡¯am, it depends on us to whom we want to check the bag and to whom we don¡¯t want to.¡± The salesman exined. ¡°I will request you to corporate instead of creating an issue.¡± Ethlyn looked around and found everyone staring at her. ¡®Do I look like a thief to them just because I don¡¯t belong here?¡¯ Ethlyn thought and sensed Calvining toward the store from the washroom. She didn¡¯t want to create any scene and wanted to clear this mess before his arrival. Moreover, when she hadn¡¯t done anything wrong, then why was she fighting with him? By thinking all this, she passed her shopping bags to him. The salesman grabbed one of the bags and pulled out the dress from it. ¡®Oh no!! He increased his speed.¡¯ Cinder said in tension. ¡°These clothes are branded and expensive. Where is the bill of it?¡± The salesman asked, not able to believe that the woman in front of him could afford something this expensive. In the next moment, the salesman was found flying in the air because Calvin threw him forcefully in anger after snatching Ethlyn¡¯s dress from his hand. Ethlyn quickly grabbed Calvin¡¯s arms to calm him down while everyone looked at him in shock. Thankfully that salesmannded on the sofa, arranged for customers to sit instead of anywhere else, and nothing happened to him. . #TBC 81 ¡°How dare you?¡± Calvin shouted, controlling Keanu at the same time, who wanted toe out and tear him into pieces. ¡°Mr. Haysbert.¡± The manager that had gone into the CCTV room to check the footage came running to Calvin when he saw in the footage what was happening in the store at that moment. ¡°Get that idiot here,¡± Calvin yelled at him angrily. Ethlyn held his arms to calm him down, but it didn¡¯t look like it was working. The moment the salesman reached Calvin, he started apologizing. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, sir.¡± ¡°Sorry? Just a simple sorry for this insult? That, to a wrong person.¡± ¡°Sir, that Ma¡¯am¡­¡± ¡°My wife,¡± Calvin said, cutting him in between. Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened upon hearing him. ¡°She is my wife.¡± He added, fluttering Ethlyn¡¯s heart. ¡°Do you want to say something to her?¡± ¡°Mr. Haysbert.¡± The manager intervened in between. ¡°He doesn¡¯t know that she is your wife. I mean, you alwayse here with your little daughter for shopping,¡± he added, exining the situation. It was true; Calvin used to go visit here with his daughter at least twice or thrice a year and used to purchase a lot of jewelry for all his family members that he had a habit of gifting everyone at the time of Christmas and birthday. ¡°So what? Hold on, why is he sorry? For assuming my wife, Mrs. Calvin Haysbert a thief or he is sorry for judging a customer just because she hadn¡¯t worn expensive and branded clothes?¡± ¡°Please calm down,¡± Ethlyn said to him softly, but Calvin ignored her. ¡°Answer me, damnit!!!¡± ¡°Sorry, sir, I was going to check every customer.¡± The salesman tried to defend himself. ¡°Lies. I can smell a lie from your words.¡± Calvin hissed and started snapping his fingers, ¡°Within seconds, within seconds, this whole store will be out of this mall if you won¡¯t stop using your stupid mouth.¡± ¡°Mr. Haysbert, please calm down.¡± The manager requested in tense because he knew that the owner of this mall was Caroline Gosling, who was apparently his elder sister. Caroline Gosling had grown up to be a famous architect in thest few years. Earlier, her work was limited to helping her husband renovate and build new hotel branches but now herpany was also into building plush societies for the people,mercial buildings, and many more. She could kick them out of the store even though they have been paying the rent timely. ¡°I¡¯m sorry on his behalf. I¡¯m sorry, Ma¡¯am.¡± He said, looking at Ethlyn. ¡°Don¡¯t be. I understand that you have to check the customers because you lost one of your diamond earnings. So, let¡¯s start checking from me.¡± Calvin yelled again. ¡°Please, sir. Don¡¯t embarrass us.¡± The manager said meekly. ¡°Really? Your staff can insult my wife, and I can¡¯t even embarrass you? Come on, check me. And I request every one of you to please corporate.¡± He said to other customers. ¡°Excuse me, sir!!¡± The other staff came running toward the manager. ¡°I just found in the CCTV footage that the customer who already left the store took that diamond earning with themselves.¡± ¡°Damn, go and search the whole mall for the customer.¡± The managed ordered and looked at Calvin in tension. What could be worst than this situation for him? ¡°I¡¯m so¡­¡± ¡°Keep that sorry in your¡­.¡± Calvin didn¡¯tplete the sentence, but he indirectly signaled the salesman where he meant to keep his sorry. ¡°Let¡¯s go.¡± Saying this, Calvin kept Ethlyn¡¯s dress in another bag and grabbed her hand. ¡°Sir, your purchase¡­¡± The other salesman said. ¡°You could have stopped your colleague from all this drama, knowing very well that with whom she was here. But nope, you stood there like a statue and just minded your own business. Do you really think that I will buy anything now?¡± Calvin taunted, and holding Ethlyn¡¯s wrist; he walked out of the store. ¡°Alpha¡­ Alpha Calvin.¡± Ethlyn called his name, but Calvin ignored her. After a while, she stopped walking, making him re at her. ¡°Can you please calm down?¡± ¡°I¡¯m mad at you, Ethlyn. You¡¯re ready to fight with me all the time but can¡¯t do the same for yourself? Now, dare you to speak a word. I¡¯m in no mood to talk with you.¡± Saying this, he started dragging her again while Ethlyn kept watching her wrist, which Calvin had held. ¡®It wasn¡¯t that I couldn¡¯t take a stand for myself at that moment, Alpha Calvin. I just didn¡¯t want to create a scene. That was why I tried to corporate with him.¡¯ She mentally thought. And at the same time, she couldn¡¯t control her happiness by thinking the way Calvin was ready to beat the shit out of that salesman for HER. Just for HER. Calvin had booked an appointment for Ethlyn in Spa as well. He felt like she needed one. ¡°You will take a couple of hours here. That¡¯s why I¡¯m leaving because I¡¯ve some work. I will ask Lemieux to pick you up.¡± ¡°Okay.¡± ¡°Just don¡¯t get into any trouble, please.¡± ¡°It¡¯s not that I go to meet trouble. Troublees looking for me.¡± Ethlyn pointed out. ¡°See how your tongue started working like a scissor in front of me.¡± Calvin red before leaving from there. ¡°Anyway, take care of yourself.¡± After a moment, when Calvin left the mall and Ethlyn was busy in the spa, hunters walked out of their hidden spot. ¡°Phee!!! I thought the Alpha wouldn¡¯t leave.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s kidnap that bitch quickly.¡±N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. ¡°Yes!!¡± . #TBC 82 Ethlyn stared in the mirror and smiled, looking at the beautifuldy in the mirror who was smiling back at her. She had gotten a new haircut. All these years, her hair was cut in irregr shapes when she was in Coma but not anymore. Her skin looked fresh and clean. She grabbed her belongings and started leaving. No one stopped her; it made her realize that all the payments were already made. ¡®My wife. She is my wife.¡¯ Calvin¡¯s words rang in her ear again, and she smiled, thinking about him. He called her his wife, even though she wasn¡¯t. But then exining to everyone that Ethlyn was the mother of her daughter wouldn¡¯t look that good. Throughout the time, she had a smile on her face. She walked out of the mall and looked around ever there. Lemieux wasn¡¯t at the ce as well. ¡®Alpha Calvin told me that he would send Lemieux to pick her up.¡¯ She thought and couldn¡¯t understand what she should do. She pulled out Roselet¡¯s new phone from her pocket that Roselet gave to her because Ethlyn didn¡¯t have a phone. Moreover, Roselet didn¡¯t need a phone at this age; she already had an Ipad, which she was allowed to use for half an hour to an hour in the presence of anyone so that Calvin would have an idea of what his daughter kept doing. And just like any other child, she had a habit of watching videos on youtube, sometimes rted to food, sometimes rted to new ces for vacation, and sometimes songs and dances. Sometimes, she also used to y games. Ethlyn opened the contact and found only one number saved in it. ¡®Daddy.¡¯ She dialed Calvin¡¯s number, but he didn¡¯t receive the call. She called him again, but he again didn¡¯t receive the call. ¡®Did he leave me here?¡¯ She asked herself. ¡®Not possible. He took all the things that he purchased for me with him, not to leave me here like this. Moreover, it¡¯s not that I can¡¯t reach his pack.¡¯ She replied to the question that she asked herself. ¡°Alpha Calvin, Can you please send Lemi soon? I¡¯m standing near the exit of the mall.¡± She sent it and didn¡¯t leave her ce because she remembered Calvin¡¯s word for not inviting any trouble because of stupidity. She turned around and found two women having ice cream from Mcdonald¡¯s. Ethlyn started looking forward, cing the phone in her pocket. ¡®Instead of waiting, I can book the cab near the pack, right?¡¯ She thought. ¡®But I don¡¯t have money with me.¡¯ With this, she nned to walk till pack instead of waiting for Calvin or Lemieux for a long time. She couldn¡¯t understand why Calvin did do this to her!! One minute, he was too good with her, and in the other moment, he just left her like he didn¡¯t care about her at all. All of a sudden, a van stopped near her, and before she could have got a chance to react or act, she was pushed inside the van by the same two women who were eating ice cream. ¡°What the¡­. aaaah¡± She cried in pain when she was injected with wolfsbane, and in no moment, her hands were cuffed, and her mouth was sealed. ¡°Quick¡­take her to the base.¡± One of the women said to the man who was driving. Ethlyn tried to fight, but by that time, all those three hunters had already overpowered her. ¡®Where are you, Alpha Calvin?¡¯ Ethlyn mentally thought. She knew that his wolf would have already felt that she was in trouble again. ¡®I hope he wouldn¡¯t have set me up as a bait to¡­. Trap them?¡¯ She used her mind. ¡®Yes, maybe that could be the reason, or maybe to get rid of me permanently?¡¯ ¡°You¡¯re so death, bitch.¡± One of the women said. ¡°I want to kill you here for killing my brother, but dad wants you.¡± She added, punching Ethlyn¡¯s face. ¡°We¡¯re being followed.¡± The driver said. ¡°What?¡± ¡°Yes, cops are after us.¡± ¡°But how is that possible? We made sure to kidnap her at that point where there was no CCTV and no¡­.¡± ¡°That doesn¡¯t matter now.¡± The driver muttered and started driving recklessly to escape from the cops who were behind them. ¡°Fuck!!¡± He hissed when he realized that the traffic was jammed. He had personally checked the route before the kidnapping. Everything was clear then; how the hell everything started working against their n until¡­. Until this was someone¡¯s else n. ¡°Give a high dose of wolfsbane to her so that she will fall unconscious.¡± He said. ¡°I¡¯m going to stop the car and tell them she is our friend,¡± he suggested. ¡°Ummm¡­mmm,¡± Ethlyn shook her head in protest, but in the next moment, she was weed by the darkness. * On the other side!! ¡°I don¡¯t get it, Alpha. Why are we doing this in a human way?¡± Lemieux asked. It was all Calvin¡¯s n from the beginning because his wolf had already sensed someone keeping an eye on them, but he couldn¡¯t find anyone around who would look suspicious. That was why he had left Ethlyn alone in the store, thinking someone might approach her at that moment, but no one did. Then he left her alone in the spa, but no one approached her again during that time.N?velDrama.Org holds text ? rights. Atst, he left Ethlyn alone when she was standing at the exit of the mall by ignoring her call and also ignoring her voice message. But he didn¡¯t miss how his phone¡¯s disy popped up when she called him, ¡®Love¡¯ with a heart sign on in front of it. ¡°Because they know that I¡¯m the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack, but I don¡¯t know who are they and they real identity in the human world,¡± Calvin replied. He didn¡¯t know how they would have found out this. . #TBC 83 But at the same time, he couldn¡¯t underestimate them. If they were aware of Calvin Haysbert as the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack, then this also meant that he might attack him in the human world by staying between humans or many more. ¡®I just hope that they wouldn¡¯t harm Ethlyn.¡¯ Keanu muttered in tension. From the moment he sensed that Ethlyn was in trouble, he wanted to y the role of a superhero. ¡®They won¡¯t. That¡¯s why I have included humans instead of doing anything on our own.¡¯ Calvin assured him. After a while!!! ¡°Mr. Haysbert, we have caught them near the traffic signal, and right now, we are taking them to the police station.¡± The cops informed Calvin. ¡°We have found your wife with them, but they are saying that she is their friend and is demanding the reason why we have stopped them.¡± ¡°We¡¯re behind you. By the way, what is my wife saying about everything? Are they really her friend?¡± ¡°She is unconscious. We tried to wake her up, but she wasn¡¯t waking up. These people are saying that their friend fell unconscious all of a sudden, and that¡¯s why they were taking her to the hospital. Any dy may cause death to their friend.¡± ¡°They are scared that any dy might cause disaster in their lives,¡± Calvin muttered and mind-linked Lemieux to overtake the first car of the cops. ¡°Or, they¡¯re scared of me.¡± Saying this, he stepped out of his car in anger. The cop who had called Calvin disconnected the call and walked out of the car. He gave a smile to Calvin and opened the backseat of his car. ¡°Mr. Haysbert, here she is.¡± He said, pointing toward sleeping Ethlyn. Calvin reached near her quickly and sensed the presence of wolfsbane in her blood. He knew that this could have happened when he was nning to use her bait, but Keanu was growling at him in anger. ¡°Where are they?¡± He asked and went to the other car behind the first one. He memorized the face of two men sitting in the second car and then two women. He could see anger and hatred in their eyes for him. Well, his feelings for them were no different after all; they were born enemies. ¡°I want them behind bars in charge of kidnapping my wife,¡± Calvin said and took a deep breath. ¡°And make sure to cake their van who know they might drug in the car.¡± He added and watched them ring at him. Both Calvin and those hunters knew that wolfsbane was a type of drug in the human world, so they might have to spend a lot of time behind bars if someone would save them. They were silent because they knew that anything that they would do or would say couldn¡¯t be used against them. So, the silence was the best answer. ¡°Let me know if they do anything in their favor. That includes even a call to their family members or anywyer.¡± Calvin spoke in a low tone, walking near the officer in charge. ¡°What if they are really your wife¡¯s friend?¡± The officer asked. ¡°You will know about it tomorrow when she will be awake,¡± Calvin said. ¡°For tonight, make sure that they shouldn¡¯t be released at any cost. I will be apanying you to the police station and file an FIR against them.¡± Cavin said in determination. ¡°Okay, Mr. Haysbert.¡± ¡°Thank you so much,¡± Calvin said before reaching near Ethlyn and picking her in his arm, and taking her in his car. Lemieux was already ready with the antidote of the wolfsbane. Calvin grabbed it from him and injected Ethlyn without wasting a single second. ¡°Your wolf likes her, doesn¡¯t he, Alpha?¡± Lemieux asked when he observed Calvin getting worried for Ethlyn.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Hmm. He likes her.¡± Calvin admitted, caressing her face. * On the other side!! ¡°Boss, both your daughter, got arrested.¡± A man informed the leader of the hunter. ¡°What? What did they do?¡± The leader asked in shock because he had a good image in the human world, and so did his children. ¡°That dog filed an FIR against them for kidnapping his wife. And the wolf that killed your son is his wife. This is what he said to everyone.¡± ¡°Who told those stupid girls to use their minds? I had already nned to trap that dog. He had left a meeting in the middle, and I was going to ask him toe to my house for dinner with his whole family. And then I would have ended the chapter of all his family that night, but these girls spoiled everything.¡± The leader hissed in anger. ¡°So, what now, Boss?¡± ¡°Let them stay behind bars. I can¡¯t risk revealing my identity to Calvin Haysbert openly. He is from a powerful family. We can attack him only by staying in the dark. That¡¯s the reason I stay close to him all these years because it is said to keep your friends close and enemies closer.¡± ¡°Now the water is going above our head. I have to invite him for dinner sooner.¡± The leader said with a smirk. *** ¡°Ouch!! Ouuchh!!¡± Calvin didn¡¯t block the two punches at his face before grabbing the wrist of the attacker for the third time. ¡°Why the hell are you hitting at my handsome face? Do you even know how important this is to me? Huh,¡± He asked, jerking Ethlyn¡¯s hand away, who was fuming in anger for using her as bait. Well, to be honest, she wasn¡¯t mad at him for using her as bait. Since this whole hunter issue started because of her so she would have helped him in the best way possible, but what she didn¡¯t like was that Calvin didn¡¯t share his n with her. ¡°Why didn¡¯t you tell me that what were you nning all this? ¡°Ethlyn asked in anger. ¡°Why should I tell you anything about my n? Are you my girlfriend? Are you my mate?¡± . #TBC . A/N: Dear Readers, I post a lot of chapters when I forget to post to chapters throughout the day. Otherwise, I post the chapter just after reaching the word count. 84 Calvin asked casually, wondering why she was making this a big issue. ¡°What matter is that I didn¡¯t let happen to you, and here you see, you¡¯re absolutely all right. So, stop creating a scene.¡± ¡®How do you are able to this, Alpha Calvin? One moment you make me feel special, and in the other moment, you make me feel that I¡¯m no one to you except the mother of your pup¡­. Our pup.¡¯ Ethlyn thought, looking at Calvin painfully. ¡°Now that you¡¯re finally awake. Come on, get ready quickly. It¡¯s a party for your sister, remember?¡± Calvin reminded her bringing her from her thoughts. ¡°You have to wear this sky blue dress because Rose is also wearing a dress in the same color. For the twinning purpose, you know?¡± He added, selecting the dress for her. ¡°From next time, I will get the matching dress for you both because Rose loved twinning all the time.¡± Calvin kept speaking while Ethlyn kept staring at his face, watching his talk about Roselet with a smile on his lips. If she wouldn¡¯t have been their daughter, then Ethlyn would have definitely been jealous of her. ¡®I like his voice.¡¯ Cinder purred. ¡®Or maybe I like him. He is not that bad which you had thought about him.¡¯ She added, looking at Calvin with dreamy eyes. Calvin snapped his finger in front of her, bringing her out of her dreand again. ¡°What are you thinking so hard?¡± ¡°Uhh.. Umm.. I was thinking, how did you manage to wake me this soon? I mean, I was drugged, right?¡± Ethlyn asked meekly. ¡°Oh, that¡­ That was so easy. All I had to make you smell my used socks. That I¡¯ve been wearing fromst month.¡± ¡°WHAT?¡± ¡°Yes!! Not just that. I also had to make you smell my boxer, and guess what? It worked. You awake just like that.¡± He said, enjoying her anger. ¡°What the fuck!! You¡¯re lying. This is not possible.¡± Ethlyn yelled at him angrily. She felt like vomiting at the thought of smelling used socks. In the next moment, Calvin startedughing at her state. ¡°I won¡¯t leave you, Alpha Calvin.¡± With this, she ran behind him. ¡°Really? Can you even catch me? Useless woman?¡± Calvin teased and started running, teasing her more. But catching Calvin was impossible for Ethlyn because he was quicker and faster than her. ¡°Aaahhh!!¡± She cried in pain when her knee hit the bed by running around. ¡°Damn, you can¡¯t even run properly, useless woman.¡± Calvin reached near her scolding her, and then the moment he bent a little to check her knee, Ethlyn grabbed his fully from his top. ¡°Caught you.¡± Ethlyn grinned at her aplishment. ¡°Aaahhh!!¡± She cried when Calvin grabbed both her thighs and turned her body into a 360-degree turn, throwing her on the bed. He smirked before speaking, ¡°You are barely twenty-two or twenty-three, and I have been training for thest twenty-four years.¡± Ethlyn was still in shock at Calvin¡¯s move. ¡°What¡­ what¡¯s your age, Alpha Calvin?¡± She asked because Calvin didn¡¯t look like too old to her. Maybe because he had maintained his figure, and also, werewolves grow old more slowly than humans. ¡°I¡¯m Thirty-two.¡± ¡®He is nine years older than me.¡¯ Ethlyn thought. ¡®In that way, even his younger sisters will be older than me.¡¯ ¡°Now, get ready quickly instead of using your mind unnecessarily.¡±Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°But you didn¡¯t answer my question. How did you manage to wake me this soon?¡± Ethlyn questioned. ¡°One of my uncles, Uncle Oliver, is too good with the herbs. So, he keeps inventing medicines and poisons for us to fight against our enemies.¡± Calvin replied, shrugging his shoulder. ¡°Uncle Oliver¡­. umm.. Isn¡¯t he the Werewolf King, Oliver Weasley, Mate of Reba Cornell?¡± Ethlyn asked. ¡°Was.¡± ¡°Sorry?¡± ¡°He was the Werewolf King, not anymore. The new Werewolf King is Steve Weasley. A lot of things changed in thest five years.¡± ¡°But I had heard that he is blind. Then how can he be a king?¡± Ethlyn questioned. ¡°Is he not blind anymore?¡± ¡°We¡¯re already running an hourte,¡± Calvin said, widening her eyes. ¡°WHAT?¡± ¡°Yes, be quick.¡± Saying this, Calvin walked out of the room that he had allotted to her. ¡®Alpha, the CCTV footage of the mating ball of that night is here.¡¯ Damian mind linked Calvin when he was going to get ready. ¡®I will be there in a minute.¡¯ He replied and closed the mind link. Calvin knew the footage of the hotel had been deleted, but now that he had a doubt that someone spiked Ethlyn¡¯s drink, he wanted to see what exactly had happened during the ball. At first, he had nned to visit on his own to get that cassette of that footage, but when he realized that he couldn¡¯t leave Ethlyn alone during shopping. He asked Damian to get the cassette from Steve Weasley, the werewolf King, to whom all the cassettes of the mating ball were sent so that the King and queen would know about how many werewolves found their mate in all and whether in all reports matched with the footage. ¡®Ethlyn had left the ball early, so we don¡¯t have to watch the whole footage near the bar.¡¯ Keanu said. ¡®I hope so. Seems like we are going to enter the party atst.¡¯ Calvin joked, but it wasn¡¯t his fault. Always the important workes at the end. ** #TBC 85 Ethlyn wore a soft sky-blue velvet with a low cut at her chest and a long slit at the bottom. She had to admit that Calvin had good taste in female clothes. She was looking sexy. And to be honest, she had never worn anything like that. She wasn¡¯t to hide her chest area, but then she did have observed others wearing this type of revealing clothes. With a long sigh, she walked out of her room but couldn¡¯t sense anywhere. Knowing that both Calvin and she werete, she didn¡¯t hope for Roselet at home as well. ¡®I have to go there on my own? Moon Goddess! That¡¯s so embarrassing. I wish Alpha Calvin would have been with me too.¡¯ She thought. ¡®Maybe he left because I was taking a lot of time.¡¯ She concluded and opened the door of the penthouse and found Calvin standing out with a frown on his face. ¡°Alpha Calvin!!¡± She had a wide smile on her face, but for some reason, her mind started telling her that he wasn¡¯t Calvin. And that was true; he was Colton. ¡°You smell and look a little strange again.¡± She mumbled, on which Colton arched his eyebrow. ¡°Are you here to receive me?¡± She asked. ¡°Hmm,¡± Colton just hummed because he knew the moment he would start talking, one could recognize him, but unlike Calvin, he didn¡¯t have a habit of speaking too much. He hated how Calvin assigned this work to him at thest moment when he had to disappear because of work. ¡°Thank you. That¡¯s so thoughtful of you.¡± Ethlyn smiled. ¡®Ahh! One more fan of Calvin.¡¯ Colton thought and looked away. Only if Calvin wouldn¡¯t have helped him multiple times by acting like him in the human world, then Colton would have never done this. ¡°You were telling me in the morning that we would go somewhere to find the real culprit behind everything. Where were you going to take me?¡± Ethlyn questioned when she started missing Calvin¡¯s annoying voice. Colton didn¡¯t reply to her anything. ¡°What happened? Not in the mood to speak now?¡± Ethlyn questioned again. ¡°Alpha Calvin,¡± She had barely touched his zer when Colton jerked her hand away before speaking. ¡°STAY. AWAY. FROM. ME.¡± Colton said loud and clear. ¡°Jerk,¡± Ethlyn said angrily. ¡°Fine, even I don¡¯t have to talk with you.¡± She hissed and started walking ahead of him. ¡®Poor Calvin.¡¯ Colton thought and followed her silently. He was here only to meet Liara with her mate and congratte them on their first pup, and after meeting them, he was going to leave. Just like everyone had mentioned, it was a small party of fewer than a hundred people. More of the people were family members from both the family, and also all the family members of Haysbert were here to meet the woman who was the mother of Roselet. Even though Ethlyn was surrounded by all nice people who were not mean to her and were trying to know her better but her eyes were on Colton throughout the time, who she was assuming as Calvin. He was busy with five pups, giving choctes to them and listening to their demands for what they wanted next.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°He is close to Mom and pups.¡± She heard and looked in the direction of the voice. ¡°Hey, Tiara!!¡± Ethlyn spoke to the model and the most beautiful woman in the family. ¡°I can already see that.¡± She added, looking at Colton. ¡°I watched you throughout the time and realized you want his attention, don¡¯t you?¡± Tiara asked, not telling her exactly that he was Colton, not Calvin, to know her feelings. ¡°No.. no!! Nothing like that.¡± Ethlyn stuttered and mentally pped herself for stuttering. Tiara gave her a knowing smile. ¡°To be honest, I don¡¯t know. Everyone told me that ¡®I¡¯m looking beautiful,¡¯ but he didn¡¯t ever look at me properly. He is not acting like Alpha Calvin. It looks like that person just has a face simr to Alpha Calvin¡¯s but not he is not him.¡± She added what she felt from the moment she saw him outside the penthouse, or she was feeling. ¡°Alpha Calvin is a shameless person. He couldn¡¯t stop his eyes from checking me out even for a once.¡± Ethlyn said in anger. ¡°Wow! I can¡¯t understand whether that¡¯s apliment or his insult.¡± Tiara chuckled, and identally her eyesnded on someone who, too, hadn¡¯t looked at her from the moment he had been there. ¡°He is also your mate, isn¡¯t he?¡± Ethlyn asked, looking at the man standing by Liara¡¯s side, who was smiling when Liara said something. ¡°Was. He was my mate. I rejected him because I didn¡¯t see any future with him.¡± Tiara said and looked at Ethlyn, who looked speechless. ¡°Call me selfish, but I couldn¡¯t make a decision in my whole life getting emotional. Am I wrong, Ethlyn?¡± ¡°No.¡± Ethlyn shook her head. ¡°You weren¡¯t selfish when you rejected your mate for your better future, but I think what you¡¯re doing now is selfish. I might have read it wrong, but I saw that you want your sister¡¯s ce. But when you weren¡¯t in his bad time, then you don¡¯t have any right to be with him in good times.¡± ¡°Ahh! You speak like mom. No wonder she started liking you this soon.¡± Tiara said with a smile. ¡°But you read it wrong. I don¡¯t want my sister¡¯s ce because I know I can¡¯t have it.¡± While hearing all this, Ethlyn looked in the direction where Colton was. He wasn¡¯t there. In fact, he wasn¡¯t anywhere around. ¡°Looking for someone? Hmm?¡± ¡°No.¡± Ethlyn shooked her head. ¡°I have a way to bring him in close to him. I can tell you if you want the same.¡± Tiara teased. . #TBC 86 ¡°What is that?¡± Ethlyn bit her inner cheeks after asking that stupid question ming this bond for everything. She wanted to scream at her wolf to stop making her feel like this, but it looked like this wasn¡¯t in her control as well. She was angry at herself for feeling like this and what was pissing her more was that she was the only one who was suffering. She wanted Calvin to feel the same way. ¡°Nothing much. You have to dance with an unmated male like Austin or Tyler.¡± Hearing this idea, Ethlyn¡¯s face color paled. Damn, if Calvin would see that, then he would surely tag her with ¡®Characterless¡¯ for real. ¡°What if this n of yours backfires?¡± Ethlyn asked meekly because she had already lost one of her teeth. Thest thing she wanted was to lose all her teeth. ¡°Oh! I don¡¯t know anything about that part.¡± Tiara muttered. ¡°But it¡¯s all on you to go ahead with this n or not.¡± She added on which Ethlyn started thinking what worst Calvin could exactly react. Moreover, she also had to keep in mind that it was a big day for her sister, and she didn¡¯t want to get spoiled because of Calvin¡¯s anger. ¡°Please don¡¯t mind my son¡¯s behavior, Ethlyn.¡± Sophia Haysbert said when she saw Ethlyn standing alone between all the couples even though she wasn¡¯t single anymore. ¡°I¡¯m sure that something important might have caught up.¡± She added. ¡°It¡¯s okay, Aunt Sophia. I understand.¡± Ethlyn replied, trying to hide her pain. ¡°Again, Aunt?¡± ¡°Umm¡­yeah!! Things aren¡¯t clear between Alpha Calvin and me until now. So, I just want to keep all the rtions to the limit.¡± ¡°Oh, I see.¡± Sophia nodded her head and signaled Lemieux toe near them. ¡°By the way, what have you thought about Tee¡¯s idea?¡± She asked next. ¡°I don¡¯t want to create any chaos on my sister¡¯s big day. So, I dropped it.¡± Ethlyn replied, ¡°Yes, Mrs. Haysbert.¡± Lemieux greeted Sophia by bowing his head. ¡°It¡¯s your Luna¡¯s first party in the pack, and my stupid son is busy with work. Why don¡¯t you ask her to dance?¡± Sophia suggested, to which Lemieux quickly agreed while Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened. ¡°Go and have fun. Everyone in the pack knows that Lemi is interested in men. So, enjoy.¡± Sophia added with a wink. Ethlyn didn¡¯t go against her words when she realized that Calvin¡¯s mother was right about Lemieux. Holding Ethlyn¡¯s hand, Lemieux took her to the dance stage. Sophia took a picture of them and sent it to Calvin¡¯s phone. Brandon reached near Sophia, wondering why the hell she did something like that. ¡°Why are you acting like fuel in Calvin¡¯s anger?¡± Brandon asked, watching Ethlyn dancing with Lemieux. ¡°Because I don¡¯t want our son to repeat a mistake that you did,¡± Sophia replied. ¡°You took more than a year to fall in love and, except that, more than five years to confess your love.¡± ¡°That¡¯s why I¡¯m trying to add fuel to Calvin¡¯s anger. Now, just wait and watch.¡± Sophia said, looking at the blue tick at the message that she had sent to Calvin. ¡°Can you sense him?¡± ¡°Yes!!¡± Brandon nodded his head. ¡°Five, Four, Three, Two¡­¡± A loud roar tore through the entire atmosphere. * Calvin signaled Damian to leave and enjoy the party instead of staying near him. The cassette had the footage from 102 CCTV cameras, and there were four bars in the whole hall. So, Calvin started checking them one by one. All of a sudden, he remembered that Ethlyn was alone at home and she might feel a little ufortable to go a party all alone. Immediately a broad smile appeared on his face, thinking to irritate his older brother. He grabbed his phone and dialed Colton¡¯s number. ¡°You¡¯re still here, aren¡¯t you?¡± Calvin asked, ¡°About to leave; why are you asking that?¡± ¡°Can you please receive Ethlyn from the penthouse? I don¡¯t want her to feel awkward.¡± Calvin requested. ¡°Have you lost your mind?¡± Colton hissed. ¡°Please, brother. I have an idea that she might be looking sexy and seductive, so I don¡¯t want any male to go anywhere near her.¡± ¡°So, what do you think I¡¯m? A Female?¡± Colton asked sarcastically. ¡°I can trust you.¡± Calvin said before continuing, ¡°BLINDLY.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sending Tee to receive her.¡± ¡°No. I want you to get her. I want to check whether she recognizes you or not. And don¡¯t say NO. Don¡¯t forget that I have helped you a lot of times by acting like you. Can¡¯t you do the same for me?¡± Calvin told him, reminding him of all the help. ¡°Helped me? You barely keep your mouth shut while acting like me. People who knew me but not you, started wondering whether I woke up on the wrong side of the bed.¡± Colton sneered,ining at his bad acting. ¡°That¡¯s not a mistake at all. My stomach used to start aching by staying silent for that long.¡± Calvin pointed out the struggle that he used to face while acting like Colton. ¡°Keepining about my behavior, but what if when Ethlyn falls in love with me because of my behavior, instead of you, who is annoying and irritating,¡± Colton asked, on which Calvin growled at his phone. Colton¡¯s grip tightened around his phone when he heard Calvin¡¯s growl. ¡®Kill him.¡¯ He heard another voice in his mind. ¡°I¡¯m sorry on behalf of Keanu.¡± Calvin apologized, knowing very well that if Colton would get pissed, then the whole pack members would be in danger. And thest thing he wanted was to attack his own brother, who got possessed by his sword in anger. ¡°You okay?¡±Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. . #TBC 87 ¡°Hmm.¡± With this, Colton disconnected the call while Calvin scolded Keanu for losing his temper. ¡®What the hell were you thinking, Keanu? You know very well that he can kill us easily. Death is not what I¡¯m scared of, but what I¡¯m scared of is that everyone would lose Colton in darkness forever.¡¯ ¡®I¡¯m sorry.¡¯ Keanu apologized. ¡®But I must warn you that you are ying with fire by inviting him to pack. We both are short-tempered, and if¡­ if we don¡¯t be able to control ourselves only day, then that will be the day the first andst times when brothers will fight to the death.¡¯ He added before disappearing in silence. Calvin knew that Keanu was right, but just because his brother was different and his enemy. He couldn¡¯t cut all his ties with Colton. He resumed watching the footage, but his minds were on Colton¡¯s word. ¡®Is this possible that she will like someone like Colton? I mean no offense to his behavior, but how can like someone that boring?¡¯ ¡®But at the same time, I can¡¯t change the fact that I¡¯m annoying and irritating.¡¯ He shook his head and focused on the word he was doing. He didn¡¯t count the time that he spent watching the footage when the door of his office opened and Colton walked in. ¡°Leaving already?¡± Calvin asked. ¡°Hmm.¡± Colton nodded. ¡°How is she looking?¡± ¡°As always, princess. Sheined to me about you eating her choctes at night.¡± Colton replied, thinking Calvin was talking about Roselet, while Calvin sighed in relief when he realized that his brother didn¡¯t even notice Ethlyn. ¡°By the way, these are for you.¡± He said, giving two chocte bars to him. ¡°Thanks,¡± Calvin mumbled, quickly grabbing it from his hand. Colton shook his head, looking at his brother, and walked toward Calvin¡¯s desk to leave through the secret exit of the pack, which was made in case of any sudden attack on the pack. Finally wasting hours, he found the part when Ethlyn had tried those shots. Everything looked fine there; that was why he rewound the video and found nothing suspicious. ¡®There must be something that I¡¯m missing.¡¯ He said in frustration, watching that whole part again. ¡®Alpha, it¡¯s time.¡¯ Zordan mind-linked Calvin. ¡®The party is about toe to an end after the dance.¡¯ ¡®Okay. Coming.¡¯ Calvin replied and grabbed the same color suit that Colton had worn from his office¡¯s wardrobe. They had different scents still, but not all the pack members ever suspected Colton because pack members knew that Calvin had a sister who was a witch, so changing scent for Calvin wasn¡¯t a big deal for him. ¡®We should give this footage to Rose. Maybe she can find out the odd which we are failing.¡¯ Keanu said. ¡®I was thinking the same. Sometimes all we need to see is the whole situation in a new way.¡¯ Calvin agreed and wondered how three different were going to happen in his life. One is the real identity of that hunter. Two, that identity of that woman, and Three, to know the person behind spiking Ethlyn¡¯s drink. He was almost ready when he received his mother¡¯s message. He opened her message, thinking she might have sent the photo of Roselet, but his eyes narrowed, and jaws clenched watching that picture. cing the phone in his phone, he stormed out of his cabin fuming in anger. Little did he know the part which he was searching for in the footage was ying in his cabin. While Ethlyn was drinking the shots, she hissed, realizing something had been injected into her body. She turned around to see who had done that to her. ¡®I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯m sorry.¡¯ Ady apologized to her. ¡®I think you got hurt in your shoulder because of my ring.¡¯ She said, pointing toward the unfinished of her ring. ¡®It¡¯s okay.¡¯ Ethlyn said, brushing the topic. ***** Calvin couldn¡¯t control his jealousy when he saw Lemieux and Ethlyn dancing together, and he growled loudly. Everyone looked at him, wondering what angered Alpha to this extent, and found him ring at Lemieux. Calvin marched toward him, ready to tear him apart, but before he would have reached Lemieux, Roselet came between them. ¡°Daddy, would you like to have a dance with me?¡± Roselet asked softly. And without waiting for his answer, she spoke, ¡°Please resume the music and y ¡®Still Falling for you.¡¯.¡± ¡°That¡¯s my granddaughter.¡± Sophia Haysert gave a flying kiss at her. ¡°She surely has wrapped our son around her finger.¡± Brandon Haysbert said when he saw Calvin agreeing to her request. ¡°Fire and ice This love is like fire and ice This love is like rain and blue skies This love is like sun on the rise This love got me rolling the dice Don¡¯t let me lose Still falling for you Still falling for you¡± Throughout the dance, Calvin was throwing daggers through his eyes at both Lemieux and Ethlyn, watching them still dancing together. Lemieux wanted to run away from there immediately, but Ethlyn was already pissed at Calvin for ignoring her at the party, and she was in no mood to irritate the shit out of me. ¡°Beautiful mind Your heart got a story with mine Your heart got me hurting at times Your heart gave me new kind of highs Your heart got me feeling so fine So what to do Still falling for you Still falling for you It took us a while With every breath a new day With love on the line We¡¯ve had our share of mistakes But all your ws and scars are mineText content ?

Transferring Roselet to Lemieux carefully, he pulled Ethlyn in his arms in anger. ¡°And just like that All I breathe All I feel You are all for me I¡¯m in And just like that All I breathe All I feel You are all for me No one can lift me, catch me the way that you do I¡¯m still falling for you¡± . #TBC 88 Ethlyn¡¯s heart started pounding loudly in her heart the way Calvin made his way to her; his eyes were shooting daggers. She could see the tension in the environment because of him because the music had already been stopped, and not just her; everyone was looking at him. Calvin looked like he was ready to pounce on Lemieux. Well, she wouldn¡¯t be surprised if he would end up killing Lemieux because the look on his face was murderous. She watched how he didn¡¯t give a damn about anyone around but was looking at her and only at her after he was done ring at Lemieux. She swore that he looked extremely handsome and dangerous when he used to hold that rage in his eyes. It was written all over his face that he didn¡¯t like her dancing with Lemieux. ¡®But it¡¯s his fault that he left us here alone and ignored us throughout the time.¡¯ Cinder said. But at the same time, they both were scared of Calvin¡¯s anger. Thankfully, their princess handled her father¡¯s temper so smoothly that it didn¡¯t save Ethlyn from Calvin¡¯s anger for long, who continued dancing with Lemieux, even observing that he was getting irritated because of it. Pulling Ethlyn close to him, Calvin whispered, ¡°The moment you found that I¡¯m not around, you started showing your true color.¡± Ethlyn couldn¡¯t understand his words at first until her eye¡¯s widened in shock. She didn¡¯t want to dance with him anymore and wanted to leave immediately, but Calvin didn¡¯t let her go. ¡°Leave me.¡± ¡°Why? You were enjoying dancing, weren¡¯t you? Then dance with me.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to dance with you.¡± Ethlyn hissed and started struggling to let out of his grip. ¡°Please don¡¯t create a scene here, Alpha Calvin. It¡¯s a big day in my sister¡¯s life.¡± ¡°Then I will suggest you to dance because you¡¯re the one who started ying with Fire. Now deal with it.¡± Calvin hissed, not letting her go from there. Not until he teaches her a lesson. He started dancing harshly with her, scaring her to death. He kept twirling her for an unlimited time, and when she was about to fall because of feeling dizzy, he didn¡¯t even hold her until thest second. ¡°What do you want? Make fun of me by making me fall?¡± Ethlyn asked in anger when Calvin saved her from falling when she was an inch away from the ground. ¡°No. I¡¯m enjoying your scared expression when you feel like you¡¯re going to kiss the ground.¡± Calvin grinned evilly. All of a sudden, the song changed to some other song which Ethlyn recognized immediately. It was Fire from the movie Kites. After all, she and Reva used to jump randomly in this song. She watched everyone leaving the dance floor except them. ¡®I¡¯d be so dead if I had to dance on this song,¡¯ She thought, and everyone started hooting and cheering for Calvin and Ethlyn. ¡®Trust him, Ethlyn. He will never think of embarrassing us. At least not in public.¡¯ Cinder said, and in the next moment, Calvin lifted in the air as if she was some gym equipment, but she controlled her fear and trusted Calvin even though he was mad. ¡®Love and lust fest will make you go blind Devil ying with your mind yeah Fire, gotta say, gotta say, said is ho?¡¯ Calvin then threw Ethlyn up in the air and didn¡¯t hold her arm until her head was about to hit the ground. A lot of pack members gasped, thinking that Ethlyn would end up getting hurt, but in Calvin¡¯s family, everyone knew how good he was at dance. ¡®Love is the game you y and pain is the price you pay If you wanna grow older way you got to go for it today Don¡¯t listen to the word they say, forever is an old cliche No matter how hard you pray, love is never gonna stay¡¯ Calvin tossed Ethlyn here and there but was assumed by her confidence when she wasn¡¯t scared of falling anymore. When he realized that his tricks weren¡¯t working on her, he left her went and signaled his love to join him. Roselet grinned and did a 360-degree flip to enter the dance floor. Everyone cheered Roselet¡¯s name, seeing her amazing entry. Soon, they startedpeting with each other. ¡°Moon Goddess!! Rose is such an amazing dance.¡± Reva said,ing near Ethlyn, observing her twirling on her head and lifting her full body in the air. ¡°Well, I guess the credit goes to her father for that,¡± Ethlyn said and quickly corrected herself when Brandon joined them. Three generations were dancing together, and everyone was cheering for all of them, especially Roselet, because she was giving closepetition to all her elders. ¡°Or maybe I should say, this talent run in the whole family.¡± ¡°So, true. I thought Alpha would drop you the way; he was throwing you here and there.¡± Revamented next.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°That¡¯s where everyone is wrong about him,¡± Ethlyn said and scolded herself for doubting Calvin in the beginning. In the next moment, Calvin and Roselet paired up as a team, and Brandon and Tiara became another team. Ethlyn smiled when she saw Roselet¡¯s blind trust in Calvin. He was ying dangerous stunts with her while dancing, but not once a sign of fear was on her forehead. After ten minutes!! ¡°And the winner of the dance face-off is¡­. my great-granddaughter, My Rose.¡± Jasmine Smith, Ethlyn¡¯s parental grandmother, announced. By observing them together, everyone realized from where Roselet was blessed with blue eyes. In fact, Roselet¡¯s facial structure was also like her a little bit, especially the part above her nose. ¡°Thank you, Grams.¡± Roselet gave a flying kiss to her, on which Jasmine Smithughed. ¡°Come here!!.¡± Emma Gilbert, Abigail¡¯s mother and Ethlyn¡¯s maternal grandmother, signaled Roselet toe near her. She couldn¡¯t believe that her daughter had done something like that to her own granddaughter. Both Emma and her mate, Tobey Gilbert, were mad at their daughter when they found out the whole truth. . #TBC 89 Roselet looked at her father first, and when she received Calvin¡¯s approval, she ran to her great-grandparents. That night Roselet was introduced to a couple of new rtions, which was why she wasn¡¯t open to them and always used to take the elder¡¯s approval before going near them. ¡°This is for my little princess.¡± Emma Gilbert said, showing Roselet a beautiful anklet. They had asked Reva about Roselet¡¯s likes and dislikes, but she was clueless about it. So, Zordan helped her. ¡°Sorry, I can¡¯t take it. Daddy says not to ept anything from a stranger. They might kidnap me by offering me something.¡± Roselet responded as though she liked that anklet. Both Emma and Tobey Gilbert red at their daughter hearing this. Because of Abigail, their own great granddaughter was telling them they were strangers to her. ¡°Rose, Love!! They¡¯re not strangers. They¡¯re family.¡± Calvin told her on which she looked at him in confusion. ¡°I will exin everything to you by drawing a family tree from your mommy¡¯s end. Just like you have a big family from your daddy¡¯s side. In the same way, you have a big family from your mother¡¯s end as well.¡± ¡°Oooo¡± ¡°So, you can ept gifts from them,¡± Calvin said next. ¡°Really?¡± ¡°Really.¡± ¡°Thank you, daddy. Because I really like this anklet.¡± Roselet chirped in excitement. Everyone chuckled at her innocent behavior. ¡°Thank you, Grandma..¡± ¡°Emma¡± ¡°Thank you, Grandma Emma. Daddy, I have so many Grandmas now to spoil me.¡± She said, winking at Calvin. Ethlyn smiled, hearing her daughter¡¯s words, while Abigail smiled after finding her daughter smiling wholeheartedly. She excused herself from there to go to the washroom when she identally heard Zordan speaking on a phone call. ¡°You sure that she is the same woman in the sketch?¡± ¡°Perfect.¡± ¡°I will ask Alpha Calvin to talk with your Alpha. It is important to meet her because Alpha Calvin wants to know what happened that night, because of which my Alpha became father all of a sudden.¡± Zordan said that the news of Alpha Calvin had traveled in all the packs like Fire because, generally, a woman became a mother overnight and had no idea of her pup¡¯s father, but the situation waspletely opposite in Calvin¡¯s case back then. ¡°He won¡¯t rest in peace until he finds out the whole truth,¡± Zordan said, on which the color of Abigail¡¯s face paled. She wanted to know with whom Zordan was talking, but she couldn¡¯t because of a witch spell at the party; no one could use his or her superhuman hearing power. Because any werewolf would start getting a headache by listening to so many voices at the same time, and neither anyone was there to stay silent throughout the time. Abigail looked behind and saw Ethlyn still smiling. ¡®No! No! No! Alpha Calvin can¡¯t find the whole truth about that night because it will destroy my daughter¡¯s happiness. I have to stop this. I have to stop this from happening.¡¯ * ¡°There is no omega here, so in case of anything, please help yourself,¡± Calvin said, looking at his parents and his sisters with their mates and pups. ¡°You go and sleep in your room. I will handle everything.¡± Sophia said to him because he looked tired, just like others, and was holding Roselet in his arms. ¡°Ahh! Thank you, Mom. Good night. I love you.¡± ¡°Good night, and love you too.¡± Sophia patted his back before looking at her girls. ¡°Don¡¯t act like you all are here for the first time. Everyone knows their room, right?¡± She asked, looking at Caroline, Liara, and Tiara. ¡°Good night, Mom & Dad.¡± Tiara was the first to disappear into her room. Then Liara with her mate.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°I have two kids, and Xavier and Xander are also with us.¡± Caroline pointed out. ¡°No issue. Arline can sleep with Roselet. Roselet¡¯s bed is big enough for two-three kids. And Artin, Xavier, and Xander can sleep in the guest room. ¡± Sophia said, widening Ethlyn¡¯s eyes. ¡®Where will I sleep then?¡¯ She wondered but didn¡¯t say anything about that. After all, it was Calvin¡¯s penthouse, and his family members woulde first. However, Calvin had arranged the rooms for her extra family members who arrived here because of Reva¡¯s Beta female ceremony. ¡°Ethlyn!! Why are you standing here, sweetheart?¡± Sophia asked when Caroline and Artemis left from there to settle Xander and Arline in their respective rooms, who were sleeping in their arms while Artin and Xavier followed them. Even Brandon walked toward his room in Calvin¡¯s penthouse. ¡°Aunt Sophia, I¡­ I was thinking about where I will be sleeping?¡± Ethlyn said, and her eyesnded on a room beside the kitchen. ¡°That¡¯s Colton¡¯s room, and no one is allowed there. Not even any other family members or the cleaning staff.¡± Sophia said before Ethlyn started thinking about sleeping there. ¡°And I don¡¯t understand what is there is the wonder? You are sleeping in Calvin¡¯s room, and that¡¯s final.¡± ¡°But¡­¡± ¡°You¡¯re marked by him. So, that gives you the right to sleep in his room. Now, don¡¯t argue with me about it.¡± Sophia said strictly, leaving no room for further discussion. Ethlyn nodded her head and went toward Roselet¡¯s room to check on her and found Calvin and Caroline sitting on both opposite sides of the bed while Arline and Roselet were sleeping together, holding each other. ¡°Remember, we used to share the same bed, too, when we were young. And mom and dad in between.¡± Caroline said, watching them sleep. ¡°Those were the golden days of my life. Colton and I used to hug dad, and you used to hug Mom while sleeping. And at that time, Colton didn¡¯t mind hugging but not now¡­Uff..!!¡± Calvin chuckled. . #TBC 90 ¡°Come in, Ethlyn!! Why¡¯re you standing there?¡± Caroline said when Calvin ignored her presence. ¡°No, it¡¯s okay. You guys continue. I just came to check on Rose and was about to leave because I¡¯m feeling sleepy.¡± Ethlyn said and yawned, leaving there quickly, not giving Caroline one more chance to stop her. She didn¡¯t want to be third wheels between siblings. ¡®Fuck!! I forgot to tell Alpha Calvin that Aunt Sophia told me to sleep in his room because of this running thing.¡¯ She thought in her mind. *** ¡°Make her feelfortable, Calvin. I saw the reluctance in her eyes around us.¡± Caroline spoke. ¡°It¡¯s your job to make her feel at home between us. Or if you want, I can ask Arti to give you some tips.¡± She added with a wink.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to make anything official among us, Caro. Not when I figured out the whole truth.¡± Calvin said. ¡°And that¡¯s the reason I haven¡¯t added to the pack yet.¡± ¡°Okay!! Okay!! That¡¯s your decision. I won¡¯t try to change that decision of yours. But Calvin¡­ what is stopping you from trusting her?¡± She questioned. ¡°I don¡¯t know. Maybe because I don¡¯t know her properly and also because I want the best for Rose, that includes that the best mother for her, and Ethlyn has no qualities of any mother in her. Our mom used to handle all of us just like this.¡± he said, snapping his finger. ¡°But Ethlyn doesn¡¯t know a single thing. Hell, she is so young to be a mother. She can barely handle herself. I guess she can¡¯t even handle herself. Do you know she doesn¡¯t even know how to cook?¡± ¡°These all are excuses, Calvin. No one has experienced bing a mother from birth. They learn it when they be a mother. And you have no right to say that. You, too, weren¡¯t born as a perfect father either. And age is not important in all this, and you know that, right? Mom was twenty-one when she had me. And cooking? Are you serious? That¡¯s the most stupid reason I have ever heard.¡± Caroline chuckled. ¡°What matters to be a mother is to have selfless feeling and enormous love toward the pup even before the pup¡¯s birth. And you can¡¯t deny the fact that Ethlyn doesn¡¯t have that one.¡±Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°And you said that you don¡¯t know her properly. That¡¯s why you don¡¯t trust her. I learned from Artemis that you don¡¯t have to know everything to have trust. Not when you know each other¡¯s hearts. And we all can see that Ethlyn¡¯s heart is clear and pure. That¡¯s the reason she already ends up getting in trouble.¡± ¡°I mean, I saw the gap between her teeth. She paid the price of the things that her mother did. In fact, she is still paying for the price that her mother did with our Rose.¡± Calvin¡¯s jaw tightened, recalling how they had left Roselet in a box outside his pack. What if¡­ what if instead of his warrior, hunters or rogues would have found Rose and worst would have killed her? ¡°Brother,¡± Caroline held Calvin¡¯s hand. ¡°Ethlyn has gone through a lot of things. If you can¡¯t heal her, then please don¡¯t try to hurt her more.¡± ¡°Urrghh.. Let me sleep.¡± Roselet whined in her sleep. Both Caroline and Calvin smiled and silently left the room. ¡°Good night!! Good night!!¡± ¡°By the way, you¡¯re staying here tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?¡± Calvin asked. ¡°Tomorrow, I mean on Saturday, YES. But we will be leaving on Sunday after lunch. But make sure that you will be free OR there is no use in staying here.¡± ¡°Sure! Sure!¡± Calvin agreed, but in the next moment, he did realize that his work would be dyed for two days but nevermind anything for his family. With a smile on his lips, he opened the door of his room and found Ethlyn in his clothes, lying on his bed. She quickly sat on the bed and started speaking, ¡°Pups are in the room that you allotted to me. Since there was no room in the penthouse. Aunt Sophia asked me to sleep in this room.¡± ¡°So, you want to say that my penthouse is small?¡± Calvin asked in a serious tone and started opening the button of his shirt. He wasn¡¯t surprised to see her in his room because he knew his mother would end up doing something like this. If she had wanted, then she could have Roselet in his room and Arline with Caroline and Artemis in that way, Ethlyn could have slept in Roselet¡¯s room, but nope, she didn¡¯t suggest this idea then and nned all this. ¡°No!! No!! It¡¯s big. Big enough for all your family members, but¡­ I think you didn¡¯t think about the pups when you were building it. Well, how can you think about them when they weren¡¯t not even born back then.¡± Ethlyn said, getting nervous after watching Calvin open his shirt. He threw it on the bed. She watched him open his belt and gulped her saliva nervously. ¡°My¡­my clothes were in that room¡­ that¡¯s why..¡± She took a deep breath when he threw his pant on the bed next. He looked no less than a model or better than a model in underwear ads. She didn¡¯t realize that she had stopped talking and started staring at him. ¡°Want to hold my rod?¡± He questioned, teasing her. ¡°Huh?¡± Ethlyn took a few seconds to realize what he had just asked. ¡°What nonsense? You¡­ you¡¯re such a shameless man.¡± She added and turned her head to another side. . #TBC 91 ¡°Ohoo!! After watching me from top to bottom for a good amount of time, you¡¯re acting like a saint that you aren¡¯t.¡± Calvin teased her more. Ethlyn¡¯s cheeks turned red as a tomato, but she still didn¡¯t look at him to answer him. ¡°You shouldn¡¯t have started stripping in front of me in the first ce.¡± Sheined. ¡°This is my room. I can even do a nude catwalk. Want to see?¡± Calvin asked. ¡®Yes!!!¡¯ Cinder howled happily. ¡°Noooo!! Please wear something.¡± Ethlyn said, shaking her head. Calvin chuckled and went into the washroom. ¡°Moon Goddess!! In what I got myself into?¡± Ethlyn questioned herself. ¡°How could we share the same bedroom again with so much tension between us?¡± She mumbled and got irked, seeing the way Calvin had thrown his clothes on the bed.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. She left the bed and kept the shirt in theundry bag, and arranged his zer and pant on a hanger. ¡°Hmm. Perfect.¡± She mumbled and was about to reach bed when Calvin walked out of the shower. ¡®Generally, he is alwayste, but he takes a bath so soon.¡¯ She mentally thought without looking at him, looking very well that he would be showing his body. At the same time, Calvin didn¡¯t miss that his used clothes were not on the bed anymore while Ethlyn was looking at the other side of the room. He started whistling to the same music on which he had danced with both Roselet and Ethlyn, on which Ethlyn turned her head, looking at him in anger, assuming that he was teasing her, but he was busy in his own world, drying his hair with another towel while one of the towels was around wrapped around his lower waist. She observed his wet back and how water droplets were moving his hair to his whole back, disappearing under his towel. It wasn¡¯t that she hadn¡¯t seen him naked before. She had, but never did she study his feature this closely. All of a sudden, the way Calvin was whistling changed, making Ethlyn look up in the mirror and find him looking at her. She was caught red-handed while checking his body again, and she couldn¡¯t deny that. She gulped her saliva when she realized that Calvin was doing the same. Ethlyn didn¡¯t know, but she had worn Calvin¡¯s favorite t-shirt that Roselet got for him on hisst birthday. Lemieux carried her in his arms throughout the time in the mall when she had to find the best t-shirt for her daddy. She had spent hours deciding that. Lemieux was ready to hit his head on the wall thinking how she had built a habit of spending hours in the mall. Since Calvin¡¯sst birthday, Roselet had started understanding that one has to give a gift something on the birthday. Calvin studied how his t-shirt was so loose to her. He wouldn¡¯t be surprised if both mother and daughter would fit in his t-shirt. Under his t-shirt, she was wearing her own shorts that she had worn under the dress in the evening. That was a different story that; if anyone would ask her to stand, then he/she couldn¡¯t see her shorts near the t-shirt. ¡°What are you staring at? Don¡¯t make me feel that you¡¯re really a characterless woman ready to open your legs for me again.¡± ¡°Youuuu¡­ what do you think you¡¯re? Handsome Hunk, huh? You¡¯re an old man, to be honest, and I¡¯m interested in young men.¡± Ethlyn replied in anger. Little did she know that she had hurt Calvin¡¯s ego by calling him ¡®OLD.¡¯ ¡°I¡¯m old?¡± Calvi asked her turning his head toward her. ¡°Yes,¡± Ethlyn said, and her heartbeat quickened when Calvin started walking toward her, narrowing his eyes. ¡®Oh no! What should I do now?¡¯ She thought and stayed still. She watched him crawl toward her on the bed. When a pup started crawling, she found it cute, but a beast like him started crawling; it was a sign of danger. Ethlyn¡¯s breath caught in her throat as he leaned toward her. She watched his beautiful brown eyes like choctes closely. Her mind was screaming that he was anything but not good news, but her body didn¡¯t move an inch away from him and kept staring at him. ¡°Look carefully. Do I look old?¡± Calvin asked her aftering dangerously close to her. He could hear the loud thudding sound of her heart. He liked the effect that he had on her, and he wouldn¡¯t deny that he also liked making her nervous. ¡®No! Of course, No!¡¯ Her mind yelled loudly. Just like actors at the age of thirty-two looked perfectly young and handsome. In the same way, Calvin didn¡¯t look a day older than twenty-five years old. But this wasn¡¯t the answer that she was going to give. Not when she had finally got the chance to tease him and irritate him by telling him old. ¡°Yes!! And an old man will still look old man whether he will stand twenty feet away or an inch away.¡± She said before adding, ¡°Now, move away! I have to sleep.¡± She mumbled and started opening the nket. Calvin grabbed her wrist and made her look into his eyes, ¡°What is wrong with you, Old man? Let me sleep.¡± Ethlyn asked, trying to take her hand from his grip. ¡°The man you are calling old still holds the stamina of fucking you the whole night, making sure that you won¡¯t be able to walk in the morning.¡± Calvin hissed, pulling her close to him. Though it was a threat for Ethlyn to shut her mouth but for some reason, she wasn¡¯t ready to take ept the defeat. What angered her the more was her wolf, and her body was excited to hear this threat. It sounded more like a thriller than a threat to her wolf. ¡°Says the old man who doesn¡¯t have fucked anyone in thest five years.¡± Ethlyn taunted. . #TBC 92 ¡°You¡¯re tasting my patience, aren¡¯t you?¡± Calvin asked, studying her every move. ¡°Maybe I¡¯m,¡± Ethlyn spoke, looking into his eyes. At the same time, he didn¡¯t take his eyes off her and after staring at the beautiful woman, who had a scent almost simr to his daughter. Her heartbeat rose again when he leaned over her, smoothing the sheets beside her. The more he leaned toward her, the more she started leaning back toward the bed until her body finally touched the mattress, and she had nowhere to escape. Calvin looked at her hungrily, watching how her chest kept rising and falling because of her breathing. He always imagined how Roselet¡¯s mother would have been and how he would have felt with her. He had always fucked women, never ever had made love to anyone because his wolf never permitted him for that. But this time, even his wolf was excited. The room was quiet except for the sound of both of their heart pounding in their chest and the sound of their breathing. Calvin had given enough time for Ethlyn to say NO to escape this, but when no such response came from her end, he crashed his lips against hers. A delicious taste of Mango ice cream sensed his tongue. He didn¡¯t break the kiss to ask that stupid question. He just assumed that she might have eaten that as a dessert. What he liked more about the kiss was Ethlyn¡¯s response. She wrapped her hand around his neck, and one of her legs wrapped around his waist. In the next second, Calvin dropped his weight on her, which he had held on his hand, feeling her whole body against him. Ethlyn¡¯s breath hitched, and she gasped, realizing his rod against her stomach, standing proudly. Using this as an opportunity, Calvin deepened the kiss. He waited for long this night to have the mother of his daughter under him again but in his sense. So that he could relive that night again. Ethlyn¡¯s lips moved in sync with his as he kissed her as if it was thest kiss of his life. Her hands ran through his naked back, which she had observed closely. A moan escaped Ethlyn¡¯s lips when Calvin squeezed her ass. At the same time, Ethlyn wasn¡¯t being innocent herself; she remembered Calvin wearing just a towel. She pulled his towel and threw it away. But they didn¡¯t break the kiss and kept exploring each and every part of each other¡¯s mouth, while Ethlyn wrapped her both legs against his waist, rubbing her feet against his naked buttock. Calvin liked that. That was the perk of experienced women. He had fucked a virgin woman just once and swore not to do that again because she spoiled his mood because of her naivety and innocence. Hell, he would concentrate on sex or teaching sex. He lifted his body a little and started pulling up the t-shirt that she was wearing instead of tearing it into pieces without breaking the kiss. He cursed mentally for not observing this before, maybe because he was more into observing her face than her body, that Ethlyn hadn¡¯t worn a bra under the t-shirt. ¡®Fuck, yes!¡¯ He mentally howled in excitement after grabbing her breast in his hand. It was neither too small nor big but perfect enough for him to hold them in his hands. * Calvin squeezed her breast hard, making her whimper. He wasn¡¯t satisfied with that; he started ying with her nipples between his finger and squeezed them as hard as he could, making her break the kiss. Her eyes moisturize a little. She looked at Calvin withining eyes, but not once a word escaped from her mouth. ¡°Does daddy¡¯s little girl want to cry?¡± Calvin teased her pinching her cheek in the same way she did to him by calling him OLD. ¡°You can still ask me to stop.¡± He added when Ethlyn pped his hand, pushing it away from her cheek. ¡°Neither am I a little girl, nor I¡¯m going to cry.¡± She said confidently, not sure of what was going toe next. ¡°And if you¡¯re already tired, then you can stop because I¡¯m big enough to handle this.¡± She added. Calvin didn¡¯t say anything about that but carefully removed his t-shirt from her head first. He didn¡¯t want to admit it, but the determination and confidence in Ethlyn had turned him on more than before.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. Again, he didn¡¯t want to admit that he didn¡¯t want Ethlyn to stop him. He swore to fuck her senselessly and wouldn¡¯t stop until she would beg him to stop. Without wasting a second, he tore her shorts and her underwear under them. Ethlyn gasped in surprise because she thought Calvin would calmly remove them just like he did when he had to remove the t-shirt which she was wearing. Calvin studied her naked body from top to bottom carefully and closely for the first time. He ran his finger below her belly. There were the marks of stitches. He looked up into her eyes to know the reason behind this mark. ¡°Rose and her brother came out of me through an operation, and at that time, Cinder wasn¡¯t with me, so I healed in a human speed,¡± Ethlyn responded to an unasked question of Calvin. ¡°Though she can heal it now, but I want to keep this mark with me as one of the memories of my life.¡± She added. Ethlyn already had no memories of her pups when they were born, so she wanted to keep the marks of the stitches. When she realized that Calvin¡¯s mind diverted into some other zone, she took a bold move that she didn¡¯t know was capable of doing until now. She slowly parted her legs on her own. And the most she did, the intoxicating scent of her arousal hit his nose, bringing Calvin out of the zone of Ethlyn that grew after learning that those ugly marks were important for Ethlyn. And from that moment, that scar would be important to him as well. All of a sudden, Calvin¡¯s eyes darkened when Keanu, too, joined him, seeing her soaking wet pussy. Damn! He hadn¡¯t even done anything by then, and she was in this state. He grabbed her thighs and pulled her toward him, making her legs rest on his shoulder so that he would explore her core in the best way possible. . #TBC 93 Ethlyn grabbed the sheet tightly, seeing the hunger in Calvin¡¯s eyes. Unlike him, she used to feel tingles in all those parts of her body where he used to touch her. She watched him leaning toward her pussy. She felt ticklish when his warm breath hit her thigh, so she started moving. He growled in a low tone before speaking, ¡°Stay still.¡± And without warning, his face delved between her thighs. She gasped and lifted her ass in the air the moment she felt his tongue inside her pussy. ¡°Allpphaaa.. Calvi.. nn¡± She moaned, arching her hips against his face. She was moving a lot, so Calvin grabbed her ass tightly to make her still and dove his tongue inside without any disturbance. ¡°Moon¡­ Goddess!!¡± She moaned when he swirled his tongue, making her go crazy. Soon enough, Calvin increased his speed, making Ethlyn crazier than before. ¡°Fuck!!¡± She moaned, lifting her body in the air, but the more she used to try to lift her body in the air, she used to feel more pain because Calvin had almost dug his fingers in her ass to make her stay still. ¡°I will, Kitten. I will.¡± He muttered, taking a small break. ¡°I will fuck you so hard that you will be screaming my name throughout the night.¡± ¡°We will.. See!! Ohh.. Ahhh!!¡± Ethlyn moaned in pleasure. Soon, Ethlyn came, and Calvin drank her fluid like a drink of hunger. Calvin didn¡¯t leave her even when her body was a quivering mess. He had nned to clean her as much as he could so that she wouldn¡¯te soon when his manhood would enter inside her pussy. A momentter, Ethlyn¡¯s cry filled all over the room because of pleasure again, ¡°Ahh!! Ohh¡­ Calvin¡­ Alpha Cal.. Ahh!!¡± She let out a whimper when the fourth orgasm hit her. She couldn¡¯t believe her body which had betrayed her again and again by acting this sensitive to Calvin¡¯s touch. She had barely closed her eyes, feeling tired when she sensed Calvin lifting his body into a kneeling position while her legs were still in the air. She opened her eyes to see what he was doing and found his manhood against her pussy. He winked at her and mmed his big rod inside her in one go, giving no room for any mercy. Ethlyn cried loudly in pain, but Calvin picked her up, holding her waist, and he kissed her hungrily, shutting her mouth. He couldn¡¯t understand why did he bother to calm her down when she was in pain? He wasn¡¯t like this before. Trying to calm the woman in pain was not something he had done before. A minuteter, Ethlyn kissed him back; throughout the while, Calvin didn¡¯t move and stayed silent. Breaking the kiss, Ethlyn whispered, ¡°You can move now.¡± ¡°Just don¡¯t start crying like a little girl because if you do, then I will shove my dick in your mouth instead of kissing you again.¡± He taunted her, on which she red at him. A secondter, Calvin finally started moving inside her. And just like Calvin said, he made sure that Ethlyn would be screaming his name all the time because he fucked her senselessly. Ethlyn was having a hard time coping with his stamina. Damn, he wasn¡¯t stopping even for a second. Though it wasn¡¯t her first time but it was definitely after a long time, so her pussy was trying to adjust Calvin¡¯s rod, which looked like too big for Ethlyn. Tears dwelled in her eyes, but it was for both pain and pleasure. She looked at Calvin¡¯s face, who was definitely enjoying this. After all, his rod was free to fuck anyone after around five years. He wanted to release all his tension, workload, anger, frustration, irritation, and all other emotions through it. And the best part was Ethlyn¡¯s screaming his name in pleasure. ¡°Please, stop!! Please, stop!!¡± Ethlyn finally said. ¡°I agree¡­.!! I agree that you aren¡¯t old.¡± She added when she wasn¡¯t able to handle Calvin¡¯s harder, faster and rougher fuck. She felt like she would pass out at any moment. ¡°Turning on my mood, you¡¯re asking me to STOP?¡± Calvin asked, who didn¡¯t want to stop though he had sworn that he would if she would ask him. ¡°This beast had been sleeping for thest five years, and you just can¡¯t ask him to sleep again after waking him up?¡± he asked another question again and fucking Ethlyn as hard as he could so that she wouldn¡¯t be able to think properly. ¡°Pleasseee¡± Ethlyn begged. ¡°Fine!! Tomorrow night and all other nights until it is satisfied. I will have you. Done?¡± Calvin questioned with a smirk. ¡°Okay. Done¡­ Ahhh¡­ Done.¡± Ethlyn quickly agreed. By that time, even Calvin¡¯s body tensed up, and he finally stopped just toe inside her. He started breathing heavily, trying to catch his breath and watching Ethlyn slowly, closing her eyes after a tiring night. Calvin watched her sleeping while he was still inside her. He tucked her hair behind her ear. It was all wet because of sweat, even though the AC in the room was working perfectly fine. He took a deep breath and smelt the scent of sex, sweat, and his own arousal because he was still hard for her, but at the same time, he knew that pushing further than this would term as rape. After a while, he left the bed and went into the washroom for a cold shower. ¡®Damn, it was damn so good.¡¯ He talked with his wolf. ¡®To be honest, I had not kept any hope of enjoying this moment again after Rose.¡¯ He added with a sigh.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡®Now that you are back to active mode. Just don¡¯t start fucking every other woman in the pack. After you get bored from Ethlyn.¡¯ Keanu warned him. . #TBC 94 ¡®That wouldn¡¯t happen. If anything, what I love the most in my life is my daughter. And I can never stoop low in her eyes.¡¯ Calvin said. And he meant it. With each passing day, she was growing old; he didn¡¯t want to her to hear anyment about her father sleeping with a new woman every night. Everything looked good til some age. ¡®The worst case is what if Rose starts following your footsteps from childhood.¡¯ Keanu said, scaring Calvin to his core. He was positive that he would kick any boy near her, but he just couldn¡¯t stay with her all the time. It would be better if she would be raised in a better way. He would surely let her enjoy her teenage and adulthood just like his father gave freedom to his sisters but not before her sweet sixteen or eighteen, whatever she decides. After showering, he returned back to his room and again, the scent of sex and sweat his room. ¡®Moon Goddess! I have to get a room freshener soon, or I will get aroused again and again.¡¯ He mentally thought and went to bed. Ethlyn was sleeping in the same tempting way, opening her legs in which he had left her a moment before. It took him all his will to control himself from not fucking her again. Hey down on the bed and watched her face for a while before pulling her into his arms. He licked his mark on her body. ¡°Umm.. Nathan!!¡± She moaned in her sleep. Hearing someone else mouth her name, Calvin¡¯s blood boiled in anger. He wanted to kick her out of his bed, but he had a better n than that. ¡®Let¡¯s fuck her to the extent that she would scream just our name even in her dreams.¡¯ Keanu growled in anger. He sat on the bed and grabbed her thigh, waking Ethlyn from her beauty sleep. Her eye¡¯s widened when she realized what was going to happen next. ¡°Aaahhh¡­Godd!!¡± She cried, gripping his wrist, which was on both sides of the sheet. ¡°Calvin!! My name is Calvin, not NATHAN.¡± Calvin hissed in anger, thrusting his rod inside her as fast and as hard as he could. ¡°Ahh!! Cal¡­Calvin!! Ca.. Calvin!!¡± Ethlyn cried loud because she couldn¡¯t contain it after getting fucked by a pissed Alpha, who was pouring all his anger into her core. She wasn¡¯t in the condition to speak, as she could barely breathe. She was in pain, but at the same time, she didn¡¯t deny the pleasure that she felt on every deep thrust of Calvin hitting her G-spot. Whenever Calvin used to feel that Ethlyn was gettingfortable with one position, he quickly used to change her position. He kept pounding inside her until he came inside her again. This kept in motion, Ethlyn begged multiple times to let her sleep, but Calvin did no mercy on her, not until he was finally drained out. **** ¡°Good morning,dies!!¡± Calvin greeted his mother and sisters in the kitchen when he returned from the training. ¡°What¡¯s in the breakfast because of which everyone is in the kitchen?¡± He asked in surprise. ¡°We are all preparing the favorite breakfast of all of the family members.¡± Sophia Haysbert when Calvin looked at his pregnant sister, Liara, who was chopping tomatoes a second before, and now she started eating those tomatoes. ¡°You sure? That we will get chance to see the face of the breakfast because that fatso standing there might eat everything.¡± He teased. ¡°Mommmm¡­¡± Liara whined. ¡°Calvin, don¡¯t tease her. She threw up everything that she ate yesterday at dinner. That¡¯s why she is feeling hungry. Moreover, tomatoes are a good source of Vitamin C, an essential nutrient during pregnancy to ensure your baby develops healthy bones, teeth, and gums.¡± Sophia exined. ¡°Leave it, Mom. Nothing can stop him from teasing her.¡± Caroline giggled. ¡°That¡¯s because he won¡¯t understand my situation,¡± Liarained while her mouth was full of food. ¡°Okay, fine. At least, have a proper seat before eating anything.¡± Calvin said before asking, ¡°By the way, I had to ask a very important question from you all. Mom, this question is for everyone except you, of course.¡± ¡°Does anyone have contraceptive pills?¡± He asked his sisters instead of his mother because she had already crossed her age to be pregnant again. ¡°I¡¯m on contraceptive injection,¡± Caroline replied and smiled, looking at Sophia, who was getting tensed about Calvin and Ethlyn. After all, they shared a room together. She didn¡¯t want them to end up killing each other by fighting. ¡°I don¡¯t have it,¡± Liara replied in a short and straight answer. ¡°I have,¡± Tiara replied. ¡°Perfect. Do give them to Ethlyn when she joins you all at the time of breakfast.¡± Calvin said, more like ordered. After all, he was her elder brother. ¡°Oka¡­¡± Tiara was about to agree when Sophia cut her in between.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°What, okay?¡± She questioned, looking at Calvin and narrowing her eyes. ¡°I was thinking that you might have had a fight because of which she didn¡¯t get proper sleepst night, and that¡¯s why Ethlyn is still sleeping. ¡°Mo¡­¡± ¡°Shut up and listen to me!! I know you all are adults now. That¡¯s why I won¡¯t ask Tee why she has pills when she is still single officially and what exactly happened between you twost night, but that doesn¡¯t mean I won¡¯t stop acting you like a rude ass.¡± Sophia scolded Calvin. ¡°Better handle your mess on your own, and if you can¡¯t, then I will tell Rose to give pills to Ethlyn.¡± ¡°What?¡± ¡°Yes!! Then keep exining to her what happened to her mother when she will ask multiple questions. And we all know that you don¡¯t lie to her.¡± Sophia pointed out. . #TBC . A/N: Bad news for you all; I¡¯m feeling 30-40% sick. I already have the medicines for a cold and headache. I might disappear if my situation gets worst because my blood pressure drops during the fever. 95 ¡°If not you, then someone should stay near Ethlyn to pamper her and take care of her.¡± ¡°Fineeee!!! I get what you want to say.¡± Calvin mumbled and grabbed the coffee that Caroline passed to him just the way he liked. ¡°Thank you, Caro.¡± ¡°Great then. I will ask Brandon to fill some sense and idea in your mind.¡± Sophia chirped. ¡°Seriously, Mom?¡± Calvin scoffed. ¡°I don¡¯t need dad¡¯s idea because I might not have done this before, but I definitely know how to pamper a woman,¡± he added, rolling his eyes. ¡°Hey, you, Tee!! Bring breakfast for Ethlyn and me in my bedroom with the pills.¡± Calvin ordered. ¡°Add ¡®PLEASE¡¯ for forget about it.¡± Tiara fired back angrily. ¡°Why will I say PLEASE? You should be thanking me that I¡¯m allotting you some work so that you won¡¯t gain more weight. You already look like a baby elephant.¡± Calvin mocked. ¡°You¡¯re so dead,¡± Tiara said, carrying a knife in her hand. ¡°Calvin, Tee!! Oh god, I have given birth to animals, not humans!!¡± She said, shaking her head in disbelief. ¡°Well, that¡¯s true, Mom. They both are indeed half animals.¡± Caroline said,ughing at the scene in front of her eyes. Calvin was the most mischievous kid of all, and he always used to get into a fight with Tiara and sometimes with Liara, but Colton and Caroline used to ignore his stupidments, which he used to anger others. After a while!! Calvin was about to enter his room and had just opened the door when his phone rang; he saw the name on disy and received it immediately. ¡°Hello Tessa, my darling!! Howe you called your lover early in the morning.¡± He flirted with his favorite writer, who was a woman of his mother¡¯s age. He closed the door, walking away from there instead of disturbing Ethlyn¡¯s sleep because of his conversation. ¡°God!! You and your cheesy lines!!¡± Tessa Baleughed. ¡°I called you to ask whether you¡¯re free tomorrow evening.¡± ¡°Tomorrow evening?¡± Calvin mumbled and realized that by then, all his family members would be gone. ¡°Yes, I¡¯m. Why? Are you nning a date?¡± He teased her. ¡°Yes!!¡± Tessaughed. ¡°There is a dinner at Jame Waititi¡¯s house, and you¡¯re invited there with all your family members. Since I¡¯m the bridge between you two from the beginning, so I¡¯m inviting you on his behalf.¡± ¡°Sure, Tessa. Rose and I will be there.¡± ¡°And also the mother of your daughter because of whom you ditched us in the middle of the meeting.¡± Tessa Bale said. ¡°Oh, okay.¡± Calvin agreed, and after talking for a while, he entered the room and found Ethlyn awake but staring at him with anger.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. That was because ¡®Hello Tessa, my darling!! Howe you called your lover early in the morning.¡¯ This sentence was ying in her mind. Obviously, she wasn¡¯t expecting him to pamper her after fucking her mercilessly, but at the same time, she wasn¡¯t expecting to start her day after hearing this sentence. Ethlyn was sleeping like a dead person until she heard the name of some other woman from Calvin¡¯s mouth. Her ear rose up like a rabbit¡¯s to listen more of the conversation, but she couldn¡¯t because Calvin had left from there. She thought to get up on her feet and follow him to listen to the whole conversation, but her body was aching so badly that she couldn¡¯t even sit on the bed. Both her wolf and she was extremely tired as if some bulldozer had run over their body. After a while, Calvin walked, and she red at him as if she was ready to attack him, but her problem was she could just give him this look and could do nothing about it. It wasn¡¯t that they were couples, and what happenedst night was not a big deal for him. ¡°You can sleep for a couple of hours more. I¡¯m sure you must be feeling tired.¡± Calvin said after checking the time. Ethlyn didn¡¯t say anything about it and started to sit on the bed but failed when Calvin reached near her and helped her to sit. ¡°You need food so that Cinder can heal you as soon as possible,¡± Calvin spoke, and out of nowhere, he carried Ethlyn in his arms. ¡°What happened? Why are you ring at me?¡± He asked, but Ethlyn again didn¡¯t say anything. ¡®Please don¡¯t tell me that she is mad aboutst night. I hope not. What happened between us with consent and being an adult that shouldn¡¯t be a big deal for her.¡¯ He thought, and when Ethlyn didn¡¯t reply to him even after a while. He did something to get her reaction. ¡°What the¡­ put me down,¡± Ethlyn yelled at Calvin, trying to hide her naked frame from Calvin. ¡°Put me down, Alpha Calvin.¡± She shouted again. Calvin grinned, finally getting a reaction from her. ¡°I said, put me down,¡± Ethlyn said again, but Calvin ignored her just like she did to him previously. He made her sit near the bathroom sink. ¡°Why did you bring me here? I¡¯m asking you something. Why are you ignoring me?¡± She demanded when she observed him looking for something. He got a new toothbrush from the shelf. He lubricated that brush with a small amount of water and put a small amount of toothpaste on the head of the toothbrush. He passed the toothbrush to her. Ethlyn didn¡¯t touch it; instead, both her hands were busy hiding her breasts from him as if he hadn¡¯t seen them. But hemented on that. Calvin sighed before getting a towel and made her stand on her feet with the support of the sink. . #TBC 96 ¡°Raise your hands.¡± He said. It wasn¡¯t that Ethlyn couldn¡¯t do this on her own, but she liked the way Calvin was doing all this for her. Ethlyn raised her hands, and in a second, Calvin wrapped a towel around her. While she was brushing her teeth, she observed Calvin preparing a bathtub for¡­ her? ¡®I seriously couldn¡¯t understand this man.¡¯ She mentally thought. After brushing her teeth, she wanted to do her personal business, but Calvin was not ready to leave because he had no idea what was going on in her mind. ¡°Thank you for everything, Alpha Calvin. Now, I want some alone time in the washroom.¡± She mumbled, looking in all directions. Calvin didn¡¯t speak about that and walked away. ¡°Moon Goddess!! How much attitude he has? I didn¡¯t reply to his answer, and now he is treating me in the same way.¡± ¡®What did you think that he would ask the reason behind your anger again and again?¡¯ Cinder asked, shaking her head at her human bipr¡¯s behavior. Part of them knew that they wanted to do the same, but Calvin being Calvin, if anyone would show him a 1% attitude, then he would show a 10% attitude. * After an hour!! ¡°Mommy!!¡± Roselet knocked on the door. ¡°Come out quickly, or Calvin will eat a whole breakfast.¡± She said, hitting the door with her hand. When she learned that her parents were going to have breakfast alone, she too joined them, but Ethlyn had been in the washroom for a long. ¡°Five minutes, sweetheart,¡± Ethlyn responded, even though she knew that Roselet wouldn¡¯t be able to hear her. Roselet ran quickly toward Calvin, pping his hand, who was ready to eat breakfast. ¡°What? I¡¯m hungry.¡± Calvin whined. ¡°No. Wait for mommy. She will be joining us soon. And then we will feed one another like a small and sweet family.¡± Roselet said in a dreamy tone. Calvin rolled his eyes, hearing her words, on which Roselet went close to him and sat on hisp. ¡°Daddyyyy¡± ¡°Yes, love.¡± ¡°You¡¯re my role model; you know that, right?¡± ¡°I do. But what do you mean to say by pointing out that part?¡± Calvin questioned. ¡°I want to look up to you and wish to have a mate like you in the future.¡± Roselet wished and found Calvin looking at her silently. ¡°Love, you should pray to have a better mate than me, like your uncle Artemis; he is the perfect role model in terms of a mate,¡± Calvin responded. He didn¡¯t want Roselet¡¯s mate to be a yboy and obviously not a short-tempered one. Hell, what if he would p or hit her in anger, then? ¡°But you once told me that no one can be perfect. Everyone has some ws.¡± Roselet pointed out when she tried to cook in the kitchen after watching some videos of the kid preparing pizza. She ended up ruining the whole dough because she wanted to do everything on her own without taking anyone¡¯s help. She cried a lot after that incident. That was when Calvin told her so. * ¡®Daddy, Grandma Ba started cooking in the kitchen from the moment she turned three years old; Aunt Charlotte followed her mother¡¯s footsteps and started cooking when she was four, and I can¡¯t even pour water in the flour properly.¡¯ Sheined and cried at the same time. ¡®Not everyone can be perfect, love. Everyone has some ws. For example, if they are too good at cooking, then they aren¡¯t good dancers like you.¡¯ Calvin said, wiping her eyes. ¡®And they didn¡¯t be the chef on the very first day of the kitchen. Remember, even a champion is once a beginner. They might have made a lot of mistakes to reach where they¡¯re today.¡± ¡®Always remember that Life is all about learning new things thanining about not having knowledge about it.¡¯ He added before kissing her cheek. * ¡°If you think that you¡¯re not perfect mate, daddy. Then learn how to be one instead of asking me to change my role model.¡± Roselet said, mimicking Calvin¡¯s words. ¡°I wonder if you¡¯re my daughter or Colton¡¯s,¡± Calvin muttered, narrowing his eyes because he was pity sure that he wasn¡¯t this intelligent at her age. ¡°Yours!!¡± Roselet hugged her father cheering his mood. At the same time, Ethlyn walked out of the washroom wearing an oversized robe, which belonged to Calvin¡¯s. ¡°Mommy, hurry up!!¡± She shouted before adding. ¡°I have decided that you will feed me the breakfast; I will feed daddy, and daddy will feed you, okay?¡± Ethlyn looked at Calvin, who didn¡¯t go against Roselet¡¯s suggestion. So, she too agreed with her. Calvin mentally thanked the whole universe that Roselet didn¡¯t sit in hisp during breakfast. Otherwise, he would have been caught red-handed. Every time his fingers used to touch her lips or slipped into her mouth, he had to control himself from not doing anything in front of his daughter.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. He couldn¡¯t ignore how good her mouth felt around his fingers that sometimes he used to let it inside her mouth even after entering food in her mouth. At the same time, he could say that he wasn¡¯t the only one who was feeling this tension again; Ethlyn¡¯s unsteady breath, her pounding heart, and the way she was licking her lips were clear that she was enjoying this too. ¡°Mommy, I¡¯m full. Now you two feed each other.¡± Roselet said after finishing her part of breakfast. ¡°Bye, I¡¯m going to y with my cousins.¡± ¡°Wait¡­¡± Calvin stopped her. ¡°There was a medicine here. Did you take it?¡± Calvin asked when his eyes didn¡¯t find the pill that was kept on the desk. ¡°Yes, it is with me,¡± Roselet replied, and in the next moment, she crossed both her legs together. . #TBC 97 ¡°Nature¡¯s call.¡± Saying this, she quickly ran from there. Calvin looked at her suspiciously because how was that possible to run that fast when one had to go to the washroom? Actually, she had found that medicine with the breakfast and had asked about it. Calvin didn¡¯t lie to her and told her that it was a medicine that wouldn¡¯t let her mommy get pregnant any time sooner. ¡°What medicine? And why did Rose take that medicine with her?¡± Ethlyn asked in confusion. ¡°So that she can have a little sister or brother,¡± Calvin mumbled. ¡°Moon Goddess!! From where is she learning to use so much of her tiny brain?¡± he asked himself and ran behind her to get the pills. Calvin went straight into her room, and after waiting for a while, he saw her walking out of the washroom. ¡°It was really nature¡¯s call, daddy,¡± Roselet said with a pout. ¡°I didn¡¯t do my personal business in the morning. That¡¯s why I couldn¡¯t control myself after breakfast.¡± She added. ¡°Okay!! I get it.¡± Calvin said. ¡°Give me the pills.¡±Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. Roselet pouted but eventually returned the pill to her father by taking it out of her pocket. Once he left, she smiled widely at her sess. She slowly took out the original pills from her other pocket. Then she recalled what she had done a few minutes before. The size of contraceptive pills was almost equal to the size of healing pills that were used in case of any injury of werewolves. She knew that there was a First-aid box in her washroom and also all the basic medicines in it because it was taught in her school for safety reasons. So, Roselet used her time in the washroom to change both pills. ¡®But daddy might realize that I changed the pill if he reads the name on the medicine.¡¯ Roselet thought and thought to cross-check. ¡®If I will get caught, then he will definitely kick my ass.¡¯ That alone thought scared her. * ¡°Catch it!! Don¡¯t forget to take this pill after breakfast. I don¡¯t want any pup because of what happenedst night.¡± Calvin said, throwing the pill at Ethlyn. ¡°As if I¡¯m dying to have another pup out of love,¡± Ethlyn responded after catching the pill. Immediately they sensed Roselet¡¯s scenting toward their room. As the door was opened, so there was a chance that she could hear their conversation. All of a sudden, Calvin¡¯s tone changed, ¡°Babe!! What did you say? Pleasee again.¡± ¡°Nothing.¡± Ethlyn hissed while taking the pill while ring at him. She caught Roselet peeping in the room but didn¡¯t act like she had seen her already and yed along, ¡°I¡¯m done with my breakfast, but you didn¡¯t have your breakfast properly because Rose¡¯s hands were too tiny to feed someone big like you.¡± She said sarcastically. ¡°Come, I will feed you with my own hand.¡± ¡°So, you are saying that I¡¯m big?¡± Calvin asked, getting offended, and sat beside Ethlyn. ¡°Of course not. You¡¯re a baby who likes to eat the chocte of your daughter.¡± Ethlyn teased and forwarded her hand toward his mouth. Calvin intentionally licked her fingers while taking a bite of pav bhaji. ¡°Do you have any problem with that? If yes, then you can let me drink your juice, and I swear to leave eating Rose¡¯s chocte.¡± Calvin said with an evil grin on his face while Ethlyn¡¯s face flushed, realizing the double meaning of his words. ¡°I¡­ I don¡¯t have any problem with that.¡± Ethlyn stuttered. ¡°When Rose doesn¡¯t have any problem with that, then who am I to say anything.¡± She mumbled, looking away from him. ¡°By the way, what is this? Rose and you ate it so easily while I found this so spicy.¡± She asked, changing the topic. ¡°In short, you don¡¯t want to share your juice but want Rose to share her chocte with me,¡± Calvin concluded, enjoying her red cheeks. ¡°By the way, this is pav bhaji. It is an Indian disk. Colton and I were raised by Aunt Eden and Aunt Arya when we were pups. Aunt Arya¡¯s mother was from India. In that way, my tastebuds developed by eating spicy food. That¡¯s a whole different thing that this is not at all spicy.¡± He replied. ¡®Not at all spicy?¡¯ Ethlyn repeated his words. ¡®My lips and area around it are burning as if it is on fire.¡¯ ¡°Mom had prepared chicken soup for you. You should have that in breakfast.¡± Calvin said. ¡°Really? It was you who was feeding me. Don¡¯t you think that you should have kept that in your mind? But nope, you didn¡¯t because you were busier slipping your fingers in my mouth.¡± Ethlynined. It was when Calvin ran behind Roselet; she had had that soup and a lot of water to calm herself from crying because of spices. She wondered how she didn¡¯t feel that before. Maybe she was too busy enjoying Calvin¡¯s finger in her mouth? ¡°Liar!! You were so desperate to enjoy that moment that you would have had my dick in your mouth if I would have slipped it inside.¡± Calvin taunted when he sensed Roselet left from there. ¡°You¡¯re such a shameless man.¡± ¡°And you¡¯re a characterless woman.¡± ¡°Says the man who lied about non-involvement with any woman after Rose. Says the man was flirting with another woman just after fucking me.¡± Ethlyn resorted. She couldn¡¯t believe that she used the ¡®fucking me¡¯ type of word for herself in front of Calvin, but she just couldn¡¯t control her anger. ¡°I was flirting? But whom?¡± Calvin asked in confusion. ¡°Oh! You¡¯re talking about Tessa?¡± He asked because it was the moment when Ethlyn started giving him angry res. . #TBC . A/N: Thank you for your wishes!!! I¡¯m feeling almost good now. 98 He looked at Ethlyn, expecting an answer from her, but she was still ring at him. ¡°Will you please open your big mouth?¡± He asked in irritation. ¡°Is there someone else too whom I should know?¡± Ethlyn asked back in pure rage. ¡°I thought you¡¯re just a shameless man who speaks nonsense. I thought that you weren¡¯t the same as I thought about you. But I was wrong. If I would have known that you¡¯re a lover of some Tessa or Pessa, then I wouldn¡¯t have let you. touch me.¡± ¡°How can you call me characterless or anything when you can¡¯t have control your dick?¡± Ethlyn questioned angrily. ¡°What did you say once? Ahh! You never mind sleeping with countless women because you never cheat on anyone; after all, you weren¡¯t serious with them, nor did you promise anything to them about the future with you. Then answer me, Alpha Logan Haysbert, what will you say about the incident that you did before?¡± ¡°First, you marked me without asking my consent and then didn¡¯t let Cinder mark you. Now all this¡­ if you think that you will hurt me by this one-sided mark then¡­ then I won¡¯t leave you too!!¡± Ethlyn threatened. ¡°I will make sure to irritate you and your wolf to the extent that you both will go crazy for cheating on me.¡± She added, ring at him. She just couldn¡¯t control her anger, and the fact that Calvin was just staring at her without answering anything was irritating her a lot. At the same time, Calvin was dumbstruck by her anger and the way she was mad at him for flirting with Tessa. ¡°Will you now even speak, or cat get your tongue when I showed you the mirror?¡± She spoke, getting annoyed. She wanted him to speak. Tell her that whatever she was thinking was rubbish. Tessa was actually a man or a pup of three years, something or anything, but Calvin was all silent. ¡®I don¡¯t know what I was thinking.¡¯ She thought and then started getting mad herself for believing his words in the first ce. She knew what kind of person he was from the moment she met him at Ashley¡¯s wedding. But never mind, she would correct her mistake now. She left the bed to wash her hand, and when she came out, she found Calvin still sitting in his ce. Since she was still in a robe, she had to change her clothes before walking out of the room. That was when she saw a fresh cloth that Calvin had bought for her yesterday on the bed. And that was when she also realized that Calvin¡¯s family members might have heard their argument if they would have concentrated on their conversation. ¡®Fuck!!¡¯ She hissed and first closed the door of the room. She turned around and found Calvin just behind her. She tried to walk past him, but he blocked her away with his hands. ¡°Leave my way, Alpha.¡± She said in anger. At first, Calvin didn¡¯t want to clear the misunderstanding and let her fume in her own anger, but he knew that this little fire wouldn¡¯t sit quietly. If she would burn, then her fire would affect him too. ¡°I¡¯m not anyone¡¯s lover.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to hear anything now. Your time is over.¡± Ethlyn said and tried to leave, but Calvin pressed his body against her, locking her between the door and him. ¡°I said¡­¡±Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Ssshhh!!!¡± He kept his index on her lips. ¡°This is my ce, so everything will happen as per my wish. And there will always be my time.¡± Calvin said and received a re from Ethlyn. He enjoyed seeing anger in her eyes again. ¡°Tessa is of mom¡¯s age and is married.¡± ¡°So, you¡¯re interested in amitted woman and a woman of almost double your age?¡± Ethlyn asked without listening to his whole story, removing his finger from her lips. ¡°What? Nooooo,¡± Calvin sneered at that idea. ¡°I mean, there is nothing wrong in showing interest in a woman double your age or older age because LOVE is blind, but I was just casually teasing Tessa because we kind of share a bond of mother and son.¡± ¡°I flirt with mom as well by calling her hot and sexy. That doesn¡¯t mean I¡¯m interested in her. Rose, too calls me by my name sometimes as ¡®BOYFRIEND,¡¯ but that doesn¡¯t make me her boyfriend in that way.¡± Calvin exined and couldn¡¯t understand why the hell he was exining to her by going in such depth, maybe because his wolf was getting affected by seeing the disgust in her eyes for him. Ethlyn kept looking at him suspiciously, not believing him fully. Some werewolves were trained to lie without getting caught by telling just a half-truth, so maybe Calvin would be doing the same. At the same time, Calvin had a hard time controlling the desire that he was feeling by staying that close to Ethlyn. ¡°Your expression says that you don¡¯t trust my words.¡± Calvin pointed out. ¡°But it will get cleared when you will meet her tomorrow at the dinner.¡± ¡°She ising here?¡± Ethlyn asked with a frown. ¡°No. We will be going to join her with her family members at dinner. It¡¯s kind of important to know the people with whom you¡¯re working personally as well.¡± Calvin said before touching her lips with his thumb sensually. Just at his mere touch, her lips parted, and her heart started pounding loudly. ¡°And you used your mouth a lot today.¡± He muttered, looking at her lips lustfully. ¡°I¡¯m sor¡­¡± Ethlyn¡¯s voice was cut in between. Calvin hugged her. A normal, gentle hug. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Cinder, for marking you without taking your consent.¡± he apologized softly. In anger, Ethlyn might have said a lot of things, but she did make Calvin realize that he never took Cinder¡¯s consent before doing anything that involved her more than her wolf. Cinder whimpered and hugged him back. . #TBC . Thank you for reading ?? Do leave a review and let me know what you think about the part. 99 ¡®Alpha, It¡¯s about the woman from that sketch.¡¯ Zordan mind linked to Calvin. Hearing it, he quickly broke the hug and stepped away from Ethlyn. ¡®I will be in my office within seconds.¡¯ He replied and then looked at Ethlyn, who might have understood that he was mind-linking someone. She was about to move away from the door when Calvin blocked her way again. ¡®What now?¡¯ She questioned in her mind and saw Calvin leaning toward her, cing a kiss on her forehead; he left the room, leaving Ethlyn with a small smile on her face. * ¡°What is it?¡± Calvin asked. ¡°She is the Luna of Star Light Pack, Isabe West,¡± Zordan replied. ¡°Oh, so she figured out the way to be Luna,¡± Calvinmented. ¡°Anyways, what next?¡± ¡°She is two months pregnant. So, she can¡¯t travel to our pack for any of your queries.¡± Zordan said, to which Calvin frowned because this piece of information wasn¡¯t in her favor. ¡°Also, the beta of the Star Light Pack became suspicious, wondering why we were searching for his pack¡¯s Luna. And he informed his Alpha about this. So, Alpha Anthony West wants to speak about it with you.¡± ¡°Hmm. Anything else?¡± ¡°Yes. When do you want me to fix this meeting?¡± Zordan asked. ¡°Monday morning.¡± ¡°Okay, Alpha.¡± Zordan agreed before adding. ¡°I¡¯m saying this as a friend to not to open up about Isabe West in front of her mate. I mean, we don¡¯t know what she had told Alpha Anthony West about her past. What if you end up ruining their rtionship because of your blunt nature? So please.¡± ¡°Like, really? There is never a third person who spoils any rtionship.¡± Calvin said, shaking his head. ¡°By the way¡­¡± Zordan showed his hand to stop speaking when his phone started ringing. He received the call from an unknown number before speaking, ¡°Hello, Alpha Anthony West!! Good Morning.¡± He quickly mind-linked Calvin. ¡®He wants to talk with you right now. Are you free?¡¯ ¡®Yes.¡¯ ¡°Just a second, I¡¯m handing over the phone to my Alpha,¡± Zordan said and passed the phone to Calvin. ¡°Good Morning Alpha Calvin!!! I hope I didn¡¯t disturb you on Saturday.¡± ¡°Good Morning, Alpha Anthony!! And it¡¯s all right. I know you might be wondering why I¡¯m looking for your mate. So, I understand your curiosity to know the truth. Actually, please don¡¯t get me wrong, but I think your mate knows something about the mother of my pupnded in my room approx five years back. I mean, you might have an idea that I found my pup outside my pack in the past. That¡¯s why I was looking for her. Nothing serious.¡± ¡°Oh!! Is that so? Moon Goddess, I¡¯m d that it wasn¡¯t what I was thinking.¡± Alpha Anthony West sighed in relief before adding, ¡°I will check on Be and will see how she can help you with this.¡± ¡°And yes, Alpha Calvin¡­ I think there is someone else too. Who knows what exactly happened that night? Her name is Abigail Smith. I don¡¯t know who she is and how she is rted to all this, but I heard my mate talking on the phone with her in the morning.¡± Hearing this, Calvin¡¯s blood boiled. ¡°To be honest, I wanted to talk to you in order to ask whether my mate is the mother of your daughter. But thankfully, that¡¯s not the case, but I assure you that I will help you to solve this mystery for sure.¡± After a minute, Calvin disconnected the call, and his grip around Zordan¡¯s phone started tightening. ¡°Bro, it¡¯s my phone.¡± Zordan quickly snatched his phone before Calvin would have broken it.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°I can¡¯t believe this woman. She knows something about that night and has kept it hidden.¡± Calvin hissed and stormed out of his cabin to meet Abigail Smith. * ¡°What happened? Why do you look so happy?¡± Christian Smith asked, observing his mate who had been tensed sincest night, and now she was super duper happy. He knew that something was definitely going on her mind, but she wasn¡¯t sharing this with him. ¡°Nothing. I¡¯m just happy for Ethlyn.¡± Abigail replied with a smile. ¡°Abby, you do know that I have known you for almost half of my life. So, I know that¡¯s definitely not the real reason.¡± Christian said, frowning. He observed how his mate was concerned about Ethlyn, but when she met Haysberts, she realized that all the family members were really good and nice toward Ethlyn except Alpha Calvin, who didn¡¯t let anyone speak against her, but he couldn¡¯t control his own behavior. It was clear that he wanted to scare Ethlyn or might hurt her. ¡°It¡¯s nothing, really. I was just getting worried for Ethlynst night after watching her dance with Alpha Calvin but not anymore, but I realized that Alpha Calvin might have a temper issue, but he can¡¯t hurt the mother of his pup.¡± Abigail replied. ¡°Anyways, stop interrogating me!! We¡¯re leaving from here. Let¡¯s go and meet Ethlyn and Rose.¡± ¡°Umm.. yeah!! I have something for Rose.¡± Christian said and grabbed a wrapped box. ¡°What¡¯s that?¡± ¡°Keyring of her name. Zordan told me that she loves to use attractive keyrings around her school bag.¡± Christian said, showing the keyring. ¡°It will also glow at night.¡± He added. ¡°It¡¯s beautiful, but Alpha Calvin has got her the best things in the whole world. Do you think that she will like it?¡± Abigail asked in confusion. ¡°She is a pampered princess, not a spoiled one. I¡¯m sure she will love it.¡± Christian said and sensed Calvin¡¯s presence at his door. . #TBC 100 He didn¡¯t waste a second before walking toward the door. The moment Calvin knocked on the door, Christian opened the door. ¡°Good Morning Alpha Calvin.¡± He greeted and sensed Calvin¡¯s anger next. ¡°Where the hell is that mate of yours?¡± Calvin growled venomously, pushing Christian away from the door, and walked in like a king who owned the whole ce. And that was true. It was indeed his pack house. Last night, they chose to stay in the extra rooms of the pack house instead of staying at Zordan¡¯s ce because Abigail had to answer a lot of questions from her parents, who were very pissed at her. ¡°What happened, Alpha Calvin?¡± Christian quickly stood between Calvin and Abigail, wondering what had happened all of a sudden. ¡°Why don¡¯t you ask that question with your mate?¡± Calvin growled before adding, ¡°In fact, not you; I will ask that on my own.¡± Saying this, Calvin pushed Christian toward Zordan to hold him because he wanted to deal with Abigail Smith on his own. ¡°Alpha Calvin, dare to touch my mate,¡± Christian growled at Calvin. ¡°Whatever the problem is, you can talk rather than hurt her physically.¡± He added and tried to fight with Zordan, but Zordan had locked him in his grip. ¡°Zordan, I¡¯m your father-inw.¡± ¡°That¡¯s why I¡¯m making sure that my mate won¡¯t end up losing both her parents at the same time, dad,¡± Zordan said and mentally thanked himself for sending Reva and his parents to Calvin¡¯s penthouse because everyone was nning some games between men verus women. ¡°What do you know about that night that we don¡¯t?¡± Calvin asked, walking toward Abigail dangerously. ¡°Nothing.¡± Keanu took control of Calvin¡¯s body and mmed Abigail into the wall. ¡°I won¡¯t repeat my question, woman. Don¡¯t trust my patience.¡± He warned. ¡°Tell me why did call Isabe West, and how did you know her?¡± He asked again, fuming in anger. ¡°I don¡¯t know what you are talking about?¡± Abigail asked, acting all innocent, and that was when Calvin lost it; he grabbed her by her neck and started mming her head against the wall in a repeat mode. ¡°No!! Stop it!!¡± Christian shouted and used all his strength to fight against Zordan, and thankfully it worked this time. He ran toward Calvin to attack him, but Calvin was already prepared for it. He did not just stop Christian¡¯s fist that was going to say hi to his face but also threw him away. ¡°Christ!!¡± Abigail cried in pain and horror. ¡°Ohh! You didn¡¯t cry once when I was hitting you, but your heart was ready toe out when you saw your mate in pain.¡± Calvin smirked and started walking toward Christian, knowing very well that where he had to use his energy to get the answer to his question. ¡°Wait! No!!¡± Abigail tried to stop Calvin. ¡°Zordy,¡± Calvin said, and Zordan came in between Calvin and Abigail. ¡°Mom, either you will have to open your mouth or see your mate getting tortured in front of your eyes,¡± Zordan said with a smile. ¡°He is your mate¡¯s father.¡± Abigail cried when Calvin picked Christian with his cor. ¡°Unfortunately, he has to pay the price of his mate,¡± Zordan replied. ¡°Nooo!!!¡± Abigail cried when Christian received the first punch, and the worst, Christian didn¡¯t even try to protect himself. He just watched his mate, wondering what did she know but no one else didn¡¯t. Even he wanted to know the answer to the question that Calvin was looking for, and if this was the only way, then let it be¡­ ¡°Christ!! Alpha Calvin!! Please stop!! You will kill my mate. Please stop¡­ please stop!! Please¡­pleasee!!¡± She kept shouting and crying, but Calvin ignored her plea. Abigail could see that if she wouldn¡¯t speak the truth, then Calvin would end up killing her mate for sure. ¡°I will tell the truth. Please, Alpha!! Please leave my mate.¡± She begged when her wolf sensed that the bond with Christian¡¯s wolf started getting weak. It wouldn¡¯t be long before Christian would die. ¡°Keep speaking, Abigail. The moment your mouth will stop speaking, my hand will start punching your mate.¡± Calvin said, still not leaving Christian, who was almost unconscious and bleeding badly.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Ethlyn was right. She was right. It was indeed a trap.¡± Abigail said, on which Calvin¡¯s jaw clenched. ¡°You did to her?¡± Calvin asked. ¡°No. She is my daughter. Why will I do this to her?¡± ¡°Then Nathan?¡± ¡°No,¡± Abigail replied, shaking her head. ¡°Even he was unaware of it.¡± ¡°Then whom are you trying to save, Abigail Smith?¡± Abigail started crying instead of replying to Calvin. ¡°Speak up, damn it! I don¡¯t have a whole day.¡± Calvin growled in anger. ¡°My¡­my other daughter.¡± ¡°Reva?¡± Zordan muttered in confusion. He couldn¡¯t believe that Reva could do something like that. She was immature but not evil. ¡°No.¡± Abigail shook her head. ¡°Elena, my first child and Ethlyn¡¯s elder but half-sister.¡± She replied, wiping her tears. ¡°She was already mad and hated me for abandoning her when I separated from her father. She just couldn¡¯t control her anger when she came to know that Nathan was Ethlyn¡¯s mate because both Nathan and Elena were dating before Ethlyn came into the picture.¡± ¡°But Nathan left her for Ethlyn. So, she made sure Nathan would leave Ethlyn too.¡± Abigail said before adding. ¡°She was the one who had drugged Ethlyn that night. She was the one who set Ethlyn in your room by hypnotizing her with the help of a witch. Ans she was also the one who was keeping you when you started flirting with Isabe West. She was the one who had paid Isabe West never toe into your room so that she could use that moment to swipe Isabe West with Ethlyn. Everything. Each and everything was her n.¡± . #TBC 101 ¡°That¡¯s why you contacted Isabe to keep her mouth shut?¡± Zordan asked. ¡°Yes!!¡± ¡°But how the hell did you get her number?¡± Zordan asked in confusion. ¡°I fooled Reva and got the number of the Beta with whom you were talkingst night. And then I dialed his number in the morning and acted like I was the beta female of this pack and got the number of the Luna of his pack. He couldn¡¯t give Isabe¡¯s number to you because you were a male, but that issue wasn¡¯t in my case.¡± ¡°What the fuck!!¡± Zordan eximed and looked at his mother-inw in disbelief, ¡°Why did moon Goddess make her a werewolf? She should have a FOX. Damn, she is such a cunning woman. I have to keep my innocent Reva away from her.¡± he cried. ¡°But her older daughter got all her cunning abilities,¡± Calvin said in pure rage and anger. To be honest, nothing wrong happened with him that night. He had to enjoy his night with a woman, and he clearly did, but Ethlyn was the one who had to face everything. ¡°How did you know that Elena is behind everything? Was this recorded in the CCTV footage?¡± ¡°No.¡± Abigail shook her head. ¡°She confessed all this to me on her own when I confronted her after I found Nathan and Elena arguing about that night, just a few days after Ethlyn¡¯s ident. That was when I came to know that Nathan was with Elena that night. And that was when I came to know that Elena was my first child.¡± ¡°Nathan.. Hmm!! Do you think that Nathan was aware of any of the things?¡± Calvin asked. ¡°No. I don¡¯t think so. He believed that Ethlyn cheated on him. He had no idea that Elena yed a game with both Ethlyn and him to break their rtionship, and eventually, she was seeded at the end because Nathan didn¡¯t trust Ethlyn when she kept saying that it was his pup she was carrying.¡± ¡°Where do the hell I can find this, Elena?¡± Calvin asked to settle the score with her. ¡°I don¡¯t know. I haven¡¯t seen her for thest few years. Nor Nathan kept any type of contact with her.¡± Abigail replied and looked at Christian, who was healing slowly. ¡°Now that you know the whole truth, please don¡¯t tell this to Ethlyn or anyone.¡± Abigail requested when Calvin pulled out his phone from his pocket and kept the phone on speaker. ¡°Everyone, please act like you didn¡¯t hear anything,¡± Calvin said in a sarcastic way on which the color of Abigail¡¯s face drained. ¡°M.. Mommm!!¡± Abigail heard the heavy sound of Ethlyn and realized that everyone had already heard her confession. That was a different question that she didn¡¯t know by then that, who all were included in ¡®EVERYONE.¡¯ * Though Christian was recovering on his own, Calvin didn¡¯t want to take a risk around the fox name Abigail. Who knew she would kill her own mate and trap him in the murder of Christian Smith? So, he got him admitted to the hospital and let the doctor check whether Christian¡¯s wolf was able to him in a proper way or not because Calvin had done a lot of damage to him by breaking his ribs and a couple of other bones. ¡°What now, Calvin?¡± Zordan asked, locking Abigail in the room, enchanted with a witch¡¯s potion that no supernatural power could break. Calvin wanted to throw that fox and let her riot in the cell, but Zordan reminded him that she was Ethlyn¡¯s culprit and that he should let her take the decision. When Abigail agreed to tell the truth, Calvin immediately mind-linked Reva ordering her to keep Ethlyn¡¯s phone on speaker when he would call her after a minute and assemble all her family members near that phone. He could have mind-linked Ethlyn too, but he wasn¡¯t sure that she would take her order as easily as others would. A few secondster, he speed-dialed Ethlyn; he wanted everyone to see the true color of Abigail Smith, including Abigail¡¯s parents, her mother inws, and her daughters. ¡°If you ask me, I want to dig the whole earth if I will have to find that Elena and give her a piece of mind.¡± Calvin hissed in anger. ¡°How could an older sister do such a thing to her younger sister even when they share the same blood? On the other side, Caro and I don¡¯t share the same blood, but she never thought of harming me or any of her other siblings when the whole world knows that witches are the wicked creature.¡±Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°By seeing Abigail and hearing about Elena, I feel so blessed to have such an amazing family,¡± Calvin mumbled. ¡°Anyways,ing back to your question, I don¡¯t know ¡®what now¡¯! As much as I know Ethlyn, she would forgive her mother and sister even after all this because that woman could fight with the whole world but not with her family.¡± ¡°I mean, just look at her even after knowing that her mother kicked her daughter out of their life. She cut her tie with her while my dad was ready to cut all ties with me for his granddaughter who was just born.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s go to the penthouse. Everyone was nning something today.¡± Calvin said, cing his hand on Zordan¡¯s shoulder. ¡°I hope nothing would have been ruined because of all this,¡± Zordan muttered. ¡°Intentionally or unintentionally, you always end up spoiling everyone¡¯s mood.¡± He joked. * A moment before!! Ethlyn was sitting with all thedies of the family, trying to get along with them. And just like thest night, everyone tried to make her feelfortable and feel at home. ¡°So, how was the night? Was my brother good?¡± Tiara teased her, turning Ethlyn¡¯s cheeks red. ¡°Come on, don¡¯t be shy!! We¡¯re in a team. We all will share our experience with you.¡± She added, hitting her shoulder slightly. . #TBC . A/N: Sorry for thete post. I¡¯m sleeping a little more than the other days because of the effect of the medicine. 102 ¡°Really?¡± Sophia asked. ¡°Then why don¡¯t we start with you?¡± She suggested. ¡°Yes, Mom. Let¡¯s start with her.¡± Liara responded. ¡°Just like Calvin, she loves teasing others, and now Ethlyn is her new target.¡± She pointed out. ¡°I agree. She is trying to target Ethlyn because she is the youngest among all.¡± Caroline spoke. ¡°Why don¡¯t you tell us why you were carrying concentration pills with you when you¡¯re officially signaled?¡± She questioned with a yful smile. ¡°Oh! Please! Don¡¯t give me that look. I¡¯m indeed single. And I bought those pills months back.¡± Tiara said, rolling her eyes. ¡°And you all know that I was with Wylder before he left.¡± Ethlyn observed how frank everyone was with their sister or mother. She never shared this bond with her mother. Tiara lost her virginity to someone else before her marriage was not a big deal for Sophia. ¡°Wylder!! Damn, I miss him.¡± Caroline spoke with fondness. ¡°I wonder where he is now? Mom, do you know anything about him?¡± She asked. ¡°Nope.¡± ¡°Who? Who is Wylder?¡± Ethlyn asked curiously. ¡°I don¡¯t know if Calvin ever mentioned you or not, but Calvin and Colton were raised by two more mothers other than me, Eden and Arya, my best friends,¡± Sophia exined from the beginning. Ethlyn nodded her head because she had heard these names from Calvin¡¯s mouth. ¡°For years, they treated Calvin and Colton as their own pup, butter they decided to adopt a pup, whom they could give their own name. So, Wylder is basically their adopted son.¡± ¡°Oh, why did Caroline mention that ¡®I wonder where he is now?¡¯?¡± Ethlyn questioned next. ¡°That¡¯s because he left. I don¡¯t know where but he left when he fell in love with my ambitious daughter again, but she didn¡¯t fall in love with him again.¡± Sophia replied. ¡°I¡¯m an actress, Mom. A lot of people love me. I can¡¯t marry everyone. Moreover, love can¡¯t be a force.¡± Tiara said, shrugging her shoulder. ¡°For me, my career is my second love after you all. I don¡¯t understand why you all have so much issue with me choosing my career over mate or love?¡± She asked in irritation. Ethlyn felt that the conversation started getting into a heated argument than a funny one, she chose to speak. ¡°Thest night was amazing.¡± ¡°What?¡± Tiara looked at her in confusion. ¡°Thest night with your brother was amazing.¡± She replied. She never thought that she would be discussing this with everyone. ¡°He is just not good but a wild beast. I felt like I won¡¯t be able to walk in the morning.¡± ¡°It means he was fast, rough, and hard?¡± Caroline questioned on which Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened at first, but eventually, she nodded her head. After that, Caroline started sharing her experience. Sophia smiled, looking at them. She didn¡¯t miss how smartly Ethlyn changed Tiara¡¯s mind. She knew all her kids were different from one another, just like the fingers of her hand. And at the same time, she just couldn¡¯t agree with all the decisions that her children made for their life. ¡®God, I don¡¯t know what the future has held for my children. But I really hope Calvin settles with Ethlyn. She is a lovely child.¡¯ She mentally thought and heard the doorbell. She signaled the kids to keep gossiping and stood on her feet to open the door. ¡°Hey!!¡± Bruce Collin, Zordan¡¯s father, hugged Sophia the moment she opened the door. ¡°Hi, Henry!!¡± Sophia broke the hug with him and then hugged his mate. At first, she used to get jealous of Bruce and Sophia¡¯s friendship but eventually, she learned to handle it just like Brandon learned to control his jealousy by seeing Bruce and Sophiaughing and chatting together. ¡°You¡¯re a carbon copy of your sister,¡± Sophiamented, pinching Reva¡¯s cheek. ¡°Thank you, Aunt Sophia.¡± ¡°Come in!!¡± Sophia invited them inside that was when Reva spoke ¡°Actually, Aunt Sophia, My¡­ I mean, our grandparents were leaving the pack. So, they wanted to spend some time with Ethlyn before leaving. So, can I take her for a while?¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t you call them here?¡± Sophia offered. ¡°At Alpha¡¯s penthouse?¡± Reva asked with little hesitation. ¡°Yes!! And don¡¯t worry about Calvin.¡± ¡°Okay!!¡± Reva had barely taken a breath after inviting her grandparents when Calvin¡¯s mind linked angrily, ordering her to receive Ethlyn¡¯s phone and keep the phone on speaker. She thought that he would give an earful lecture to her sister and all her family members foring to his ce without his permission, but the floor escaped under her feet when her family, all the females of the Haysbert family, and Zordan¡¯s mom heard Abigail¡¯s confession. All eyes were on Ethlyn, who was numb, not reacting anything after hearing this. ¡°Excuse me!!¡± She muttered and started leaving when she felt Reva felt following her. ¡°I want to be alone, Reva.¡± ¡°But..¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry; no one will harm me likest night because I¡¯m their Luna.¡± She said and left from there. *Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. Zordan joked, on which Calvin narrowed his eyes, and that was when his eyesnded on all the pups who were ying. ¡°I wish I would have spoiled everyone¡¯s mood for real, Zordy, but I failed. I can¡¯t sense Ethlyn¡¯s pain.¡± He said in a worried tone. ¡°It¡¯s better than, isn¡¯t it?¡± Zordan asked. ¡°No. It¡¯s not. Sometimes it is important to show feelings. At this moment, no one can understand her feelings because she might be feeling betrayed by her mother, that one rtion whose age is three months more than any of the other rtions.¡± ¡°What an irony, Zordy!! I made sure that no pack members would speak a thing against her, I made sure that no one in the pack would attack her, but she was mugged by her own mother.¡± . #TBC 103 Calvin took a deep breath before adding, ¡°She is near. I¡¯m going near her.¡± ¡°Why are you disturbing her? Maybe she wants to stay alone?¡± ¡°Because I¡¯m free, and I have no other work than disturbing her.¡± Calvin grinned, on which Zordan shook his head in disbelief. ¡°By the way, enjoy your Saturday and Sunday with your mate because, from Monday, you will have new work for you.¡± ¡°What¡¯s that?¡± ¡°To find that bitch.¡± Calvin said and started running in the direction in which Ethlyn was all alone. He realized that Ethlyn was forgiving and could forgive her mother and her so-called half-sister, but he wasn¡¯t like her. He would do the same to her that she did to Ethlyn. Call him a viin, but he didn¡¯t care. He swore to destroy Elena¡¯s life for sure. * ¡°Ah!! I thought you would be nning for a party.¡± Calvinmented when he saw Ethlyn sitting near theke. Ethlyn didn¡¯t turn her head toward him. So, Calvin went near and sat beside her, wrapping his arms around her shoulder. ¡°What happened, Cinder? I thought you would be happy thinking now that the whole truth is out, and now you can mark me.¡± All of a sudden, Cinder started fighting for control with Ethlyn. That was the best thing about any animal; they couldn¡¯t stay away from the people they loved no matter what their mood would be. In the next moment, Cinder hugged Calvin, resting her head on his chest. Calvin kissed her hair, caressing her arms. ¡°My human is hurt. That was why I couldn¡¯t think about the positive part of this whole thing.¡± Cinder muttered. ¡°But why is she hurt? She should be happy that now no one will say tag her characterless or a cheat. She, too, wanted to get her name removed from all this, isn¡¯t she?¡± ¡°No.¡± Cinder shook her head. She tried to speak further, but Ethlyn started fighting to keep her mouth shut, but Cinder overpowered her. ¡°She didn¡¯t want to do it by keeping her mother¡¯s reputation at stake. Because she thinks that no one knew about the existence of her older sister until now because her grandparents were equally shocked. Maybe dad knew.¡± ¡°Or maybe not? Who knows what are the things that your mother has kept hidden from everyone?¡± Calvin muttered. ¡°Only Moon Goddess, what else she would have done in her young¡­.. ¡°This.¡± Cinder cut him in between. ¡°This tone. She didn¡¯t want others to use this tone for her mother.¡± Cinder pointed out, looking at Calvin while he was shocked to hear this. ¡°So, can you please just not talk about mom in this way?¡± she requested. Calvin¡¯s jaw dropped, hearing this, and he kept looking at Ethlyn¡¯s face as if she was an alien. ¡°Whatever happened with her and whatever her sister did in the past. It all happened with her; she didn¡¯t want any third party to speak anything about it.¡± ¡°Third-party? I¡¯m the father of Rose. So, I have the right to speak.¡± ¡°You have the right to speak in any decision rted to Rose.¡± Ethlyn snapped, pushing Calvin away. Calvin fell on his back on the grass and peered up at her with hooded eyes. ¡°You¡¯re no one to give your opinion on my mother¡¯s character and whatever she did. It¡¯s between mother and daughter.¡± She said in pure anger. Calvin wanted to speak again when Ethlyn shut his mouth again. ¡°Speak only when everyone is perfect, and never did anyone take the wrong step with your family members because I, too, have a mouth,¡± Ethlyn warned. Calvin couldn¡¯t utter a word hearing her because he knew how his dad betrayed his mother by breaking her trustpletely. He knew how his mother got pregnant with her boyfriend and had married his dad to hide the secret of her pregnancy from her family members.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. Ethlyn stood up on her feet and was ready to leave from there to sit somewhere silently, someone where no one would disturb her. ¡°Where the hell are you going?¡± Calvin growled. ¡°Away from you,¡± Ethlyn replied. Calvin quickly stood on his feet and rushed toward her, grabbing her waist from her back. A current ran all over Ethlyn¡¯s body, and when his hand touched her naked waist because of the design of the dress that she was wearing. She was about to yell at him when she sensed someone around. Since it was an open area, then anyone could be there. And thest thing she wanted to do was shout at the Alpha of the pack in front of anyone. If he never let anyone speak against her and how could she do anything because of which, Calvin would be the talk of the pack. ¡°What do you want, Alpha Calvin?¡± she asked calmly. ¡°I want you to stay,¡± Calvin said, not understanding the change in her tone. His eyesnded on the mark on her neck, which was screaming loudly that she was his. He softly pressed his lips at his mark, and in no time, Ethlyn¡¯s heartbeat quickened. Calvin took a deep breath of his favorite scent from the day Roselet came into his life before speaking. ¡°I promise I won¡¯t touch that topic,¡± he added. ¡°Okay,¡± Ethlyn agreed because until when she could run away from him. In the end, she might have to share the same room with him at night. Moreover, Calvin just promised that he wouldn¡¯t touch that topic then. There was nothing to be mad at him, right? A minute passed, but Calvin didn¡¯t let her go from his arms. That was when Ethlyn whispered softly, ¡°We can sit just like our previous position rather than standing.¡± ¡°Hmm, yeah!!¡± Calvin said, stepping away from her. ¡®Stupid, one-sided bond.¡¯ He cursed mentally. They silently sat beside each other, but unlike previous times there was a slight gap between them. . #TBC 104 Ethlyn thought about the situation again and again. Yes, it was true that she was hurt by the news that her mother had hidden the truth from her, but at the same time, she tried to find the reason behind it. She was just trying to protect her other daughter, the daughter whom she left, the daughter who hated her. Who knows, she was trying to prioritize her first daughter for the first time. There was a lot of maybe or maybe not. A lot of questions were running in her time, but at that time, she wasn¡¯t ready to hear the answer to her questions. She needed time to prepare herself for those answers. ¡®Mom hid this from Nathan. Maybe to save Elena from his anger.¡¯ She tried to put two and two together. ¡®Or maybe Nathan would have done nothing to her. After all, he had loved her once. She did this to protect the anger of dad?¡¯ ¡®Yes, that might be the case because dad would definitely have killed that person who did all this to me.¡¯ She tried to conclude things. ¡®Dad can¡¯t kill anyone, even for the person he loves a lot.¡¯ Cinder corrected her. ¡®At least, not a woman. I know only one person who doesn¡¯t give a damn whether the person is a woman or man before hitting.¡¯ She added, and all of a sudden, her head turned toward Calvin. ¡®Please don¡¯t tell me that he is nning to kick Elena¡¯s ass?¡¯ Ethlyn thought when she observed Calvin thinking something deeply with a frown. ¡°Alphhhaaaa¡­¡± Ethlyn opened her mouth to speak but ended up crying loud when Calvin pulled her toward him without warning and wrapped his hand around her waist. ¡°Hmm. This was our previous position.¡± He muttered, on which Ethlyn red at him as if she wanted to use him that he could have done this after giving her a warning, but nope, he dragged her holding her arms. ¡°So, what were you saying?¡± ¡°I was about to ask that; what were you thinking so hard?¡± Ethlyn asked. ¡°Nothing much.¡± Calvin shrugged his shoulder. ¡°I was thinking of asking you out tonight, and then we can date each other for a couple of weeks, hardly a month for our wolves, and then avish wedding in the morning and a proper luna ceremony at night.¡± Ethlyn¡¯s jaw dropped upon hearing it and her cheeks turned red automatically. She scolded herself for thinking so wrong about Calvin that he was thinking of kicking Elena¡¯s ass. He was thinking about her, about them. ¡°I have enjoyed my whole life to its fullest. So, I¡¯m thinking of enjoying this phase of my life as well. I mean, how hard it would be to fall in love with a useless woman.¡± Calvin said in a teasing tone. ¡°Ha,¡± Ethlyn hit his arms angrily. ¡°But it¡¯s very hard to fall in love with a shameless man.¡± Sheined and then smiled, watching Calvin smiling face. ¡°Let¡¯s give it a try. An honest try.¡± ¡°For my¡­ I mean our daughter.¡± ¡°In case it didn¡¯t work out, then we will tell the truth to Rose,¡± Calvin suggested. ¡°And I¡¯m sure she will understand,¡± Ethlyn added. ¡°Yes!!¡± Calvin nodded his head. ¡°Finally, all good between us?¡± ¡°Yes. All good.¡± Ethlyn said before continuing, ¡°By the way, I forgot to ask how did you manage to make mom speak the truth? Because I don¡¯t think that she will do this on her own.¡± She asked in confusion, and immediately the smile on Calvin¡¯s lips disappeared. The woman sitting in front of him got mad at him for speaking rubbish about his mother when she was the culprit. He couldn¡¯t imagine how she would react after learning that her innocent father was in the hospital because of him. ¡®Fuck!!¡¯ * ¡°Dadddd,¡± Ethlyn quickly rushed toward Christian when her eyesnded on him. She held his hand and looked at him in worry. ¡°I¡¯m fine, princess,¡± Christian said, caressing her face when he saw tears in the corner of her eyes. He looked at Calvin, who walked into the room a momentter. ¡°I wasn¡¯t badly injured,¡± he added, bowing his head toward Calvin to greet him. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Christian. I had to use you as bait.¡± Calvin apologized.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Thank you for not doing anything to my mate.¡± Christian Smith showed his gratitude. ¡°I thought the worst¡­ but I mind-linked her I came to know that you had just locked her in a room. We will leave for our pack today.¡± He said it because he had to deal with Abigail there rather than create any drama in the pack, where his daughters were. Why didn¡¯t she ever tell him that she had a daughter before she met him? ¡°Dad, how can you travel tonight? Why don¡¯t you stay till tomorrow?¡± Ethlyn suggested. ¡°After all, this is also your daughter¡¯s pack.¡± She added to create some pressure on her father and waited for Calvin to speak anything about that, but he didn¡¯t. Neither was he surprised to hear that from her mouth because he just couldn¡¯t show Ethlyn¡¯s ce as per his mood. He was the one who made her the Luna of the pack. ¡°Some other day, princess!! There are some things that I need to fix first.¡± Christian said, politely denying her request. ¡°Dad, please don¡¯t be mad at mo¡­.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want your opinion between us, at least not in this case. I have had enough of Abby.¡± Christian said in determination. ¡°I don¡¯t think I can live my further days of life with your mother, Ethlyn. And there is nothing that you can do about it. I expect you to understand.¡± Ethlyn didn¡¯t say anything about that, while Calvin was happy that by this way or that way, Abigail was going to reap what she sowed. Maybe that was what anyone calls as KARMA. . #TBC 105 Ethlyn opened her mouth to speak after a while, but she couldn¡¯t because she might have to say the same things to Roselet if things wouldn¡¯t work between Calvin and her. How could she expect a girl of barely five years to understand this when she wasn¡¯t ready to understand that her parents were separating after knowing each other for around twenty-five years? ¡°By the way, Alpha Calvin, I must appreciate your medical team. Whatever dose they gave me healed me quicker than my wolf ever did.¡± Christian said, changing the topic and looking up at Calvin. ¡°Thank you. But I won¡¯t take the credit for the work done by my Uncle Oliver; he is great with herbs and all these medicines.¡± Calvin said before adding, ¡°At the same time, I promise you that I will take thispliment happily when both Ethlyn and Reva will raise the bar of the medical department of my pack.¡± He added, to which Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened, and she looked at him in shock. ¡°Ethlyn?¡± Christian muttered in equal shock as Ethlyn. ¡°Yes!! Why not?¡± Calvin said, shrugging his shoulder. He learned from Zordan about Reva¡¯s pursuing her studies in medicine. So, basically, both sisters had their dream in the same sector. ¡°I didn¡¯t miss how proud you were feeling while talking about Lee in front of my dad.¡± ¡°I really hope that one day your useless girls will make you feel proud in the same way,¡± Calvin said, on which Ethlyn growled at him. ¡°What? Nothing is there to feel bad about. It¡¯s true. You both don¡¯t know a thing.¡± ¡°Dadddd. He keeps teasing me about it.¡± Ethlynined, ring at him. ¡°Well, he is not saying anything wrong. Either ignore him or shut his mouth by showing that you¡¯re not useless.¡± ¡°Excuse me, both of you!!! Ethlyn, tonight at 8 PM.¡± By saying this, Calvin left, letting them spend their time together. ¡°What was that?¡± Christian asked in confusion. ¡°Actually, dad¡­¡± Ethlyn started narrating everything. ***** ¡°Hey everyone!! Sorry for joining you allte.¡± Calvin apologized, joining the male teams who were ying football. ¡°What is this?¡± he asked in shock, watching his dad, Bruce Collin, Zordan, Artemis, and Ethlyn¡¯s Grandfather against Liara¡¯s mate. ¡°Five against one?¡± Calvinughed. ¡°Don¡¯tugh, Calvin. Theo is not letting anyone goal and also checking the score.¡± Artemis said, rolling his eyes. ¡°No way!! The score is already 1-0.¡± He cried. ¡°I¡¯m also joining you all.¡± Saying this, Calvin joined them. ¡°Nothing personal, buddy,¡± he added, looking at Liara¡¯s mate, who showed his thumb. ¡°Dad, so you got along with him?¡± Calvin asked Brandon, and he earned a re from his father. ¡°I got my answer.¡± He was about to start when all the females and pups joined them to watch the match. ¡°Who called them?¡± Brandon asked. ¡°I did,¡± Zordan replied. ¡°What can be better than our mates cheering for us, isn¡¯t it?¡± ¡°Yep!!¡± Ethlyn¡¯s Grandfather agreed, waving his hand to his mate. ¡°Let¡¯s begin the game, Calvin.¡± Calvin nodded his head and kept the football on the center mark, and looked into Theo¡¯s eyes, who took his position. Along with him, others too took their position. Calvin passed the ball to Zordan, but in a second, everyone saw how Theodore grabbed the ball before it could have reached near Zordan. ¡°What the hell!!¡± Calvin cried in shock while other was looking at it as if this was normal for them to see this. Liara started, pping happily. ¡°Why can¡¯t we see Uncle Theo when he runs?¡± Roselet asked in confusion, and other kids looked at their elders for their answer. ¡°That¡¯s because Uncle Theo is a hybrid. Half Vampire and Half werewolf, that¡¯s why humans can¡¯t see him, and without your wolves, you all are just like humans.¡± Liara replied. ¡°Oooo!! That¡¯s nice.¡± Roselet looked at her uncle in Aww. ¡°He is different, just like Arline, who is half witch and half werewolf, isn¡¯t it, Aunt Caroline?¡± ¡°Yes, sweetheart.¡± In the next minute, everyone started stopping that one man from reaching the Goal area while Brandon was ready as a goalkeeper. He missed a goal for once; that wasn¡¯t going to happen again. ¡°Damn!!¡± Theodore hissed when Brandon grabbed the ball when he hit it toward the goalpost. They both red at each other before he threw the ball as hard as he could. Theodore quickly ran from there to reach the near-goal area. While the pups and females were watching the match with interest by eating popcorn. * After forty-five minutes!! ¡°And the winner of the match is Uncle Theo,¡± Roselet screamed, running toward him happily and hugging his thigh. ¡°Pup¡­ shoo¡­ shoo!!¡± Theodore muttered, silently asking her to go away from him. ¡°You¡¯re very funny, Uncle. But I¡¯m not a dog.¡± Roselet giggled. ¡°Come on, carry me!! Grandma told me that you don¡¯t know how to behave around pups, and I have to teach you that.¡± Hearing it, Theodore helplessly picked her in his arms. ¡°Me too. Me too.¡± Arline came running next to him. Theodore also picked her up in his other arms. ¡°It¡¯s the first time you met us, and we met you, and you didn¡¯t bring anything for us, Uncle Theo. It¡¯s a ground rule to always bring something for kids.¡± Both princesses of the house started teaching him a lot of things about pups, as asked by Sophia. Liara looked at her mother and smiled widely.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°She is great, isn¡¯t she?¡± Calvin spoke. . #TBC * A/N: Sorry, Today I wasted my time scolding myself for notpleting this story yet instead of writing story. I was kind of pissed at myself and wasn¡¯t happy with this month¡¯s performance. My highest word count is 146K a month, and I have touched 90K this month, the lowest in the whole of 2022. Feeling so disappointed. 106 ¡°Yes! She is. I wonder how she can do this magic being a human.¡± ¡°True. No one feels like an outsider because of her presence, whether it is Ethyn or your mate. She is the strongest pir of the family.¡± Calvin said, looking at their mother. ¡°The only problem is that she is growing old and just like Grandpa Logan¡­ one day¡­.¡± ¡°Let¡¯s not talk about that part.¡± Liara stopped him. ¡°Yeah!! I have better news than that.¡± Calvin quickly changed his mood. ¡°I¡¯m taking Ethlyn on a date tonight. I mean to think, what next?¡± ¡°That¡¯s great. Just¡­ just be on time.¡± Liara said, knowing the weakness of Calvin. ¡°Yeah, sure!! I promise I will be on time.¡± **** Hourster!!! ¡°Hello, officer!! Did anyonee there for their bail?¡± Calvin asked the officer who had arrested those four hunters in disguise. ¡°No. Mr. Haysbert. In fact, none of them has opened their mouth sincest night. We found a lot of injections and silver chains, and handcuffs in their van. I wonder what they were up to. But we finally figured out who they were by finding the details of the van in which they were caught.¡± ¡°That¡¯s great. Who¡¯re they?¡± ¡°The van is registered in the name of¡­. ¡± All of a sudden, Calvin heard someone firing aimlessly on the other side of the phone. ¡®Fuck! No.¡¯ Calvin quickly left from there to reach the police station as soon as possible and dialed the emergency contact numbers of both police and the ambnce. It took a while for Calvin to reach the spot, but by the time he reached there, he watched a lot of humans taken out of the station on a stretcher in an unconscious positions because of injuries or death. He looked for the officer to with he was talking over the phone, but his heart sank when he found him dead.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡®Damn it!! I won¡¯t leave those hunters. First, they killed the innocent pups of my pack, and now these innocent humans.¡¯ He mentally swore, and in the next moment, he smelt a mouth-watering smell of a water lily and green tea, and Keanu started pacing in his mind in tension. ¡®Oh! NO!¡¯ He realized whose scent was that, and that was when his eyesnded on an injured woman on a stretcher. ¡®Mate.¡¯ * ¡°You can¡¯t change until the purpose of your getting ready will be served.¡± She said. ¡°But dear¡­¡± Ethlyn tried to exin to her when she was cut in between. ¡°I know Calvin is not here. But someone more original than him is here.¡± She said and grinned. Ethlyn and Sophia looked at her in confusion while Liara focused on eating peanut butter with french fries. That was when Sophia realized that everyone in the home had disappeared when Calvin didn¡¯t show up till eight three. Roselet ran toward Ethlyn and grabbed her wrist. ¡°Mommy, before you, daddy always used to take me on a date or used to arrange a dinner date at home.¡± She said with a smile on her face. ¡°What happens if he is not here, his daddy is here to take to out.¡± She added with a grin. ¡°WHAT?¡± Ethlyn¡¯s jaw dropped when she heard this. ¡°Presenting you, the most handsome man in the house.¡± Tiara cheered along with others, and Brandon walked out of his room, wearing a custom-made suit, looking incredibly tall and handsome, which he was. Even in his sixties, Brandon looked no less than any adonis in his forties. Ethlyn couldn¡¯t take her eyes off him, and for the first time, she was closely observing that Calvin had taken approx 90% from him by appearance. From almost the same hair color and eyes to height. She couldn¡¯t be surprised if she came to know that a lot of women would still try to hit on him. At the same time, Sophia Haysbert fell in love with her husband again; she didn¡¯t know whose idea was that, but the fact Brandon agreed to it had won her heart again. She recalled how her father-inw, Brandon¡¯s father, always made her feel like she was his daughter instead of his daughter-inw. A lone tear escaped from her eyes, thinking about that moment. ¡®God! How many times will I fall for the same person again and again?¡¯ She thought, and immediately the idea of a hot and romantic night as a gift to her husband came into her mind. ¡°Shall we?¡± Brandon offered his hand toward Ethlyn. She didn¡¯t know what to say because this was totally unexpected for her. ¡°What are you thinking, girl? Say yes!! And don¡¯t ruin the mood of yours from my stupid son.¡± Sophia said, grinning ear to ear. ¡°Grandma, don¡¯t call my Calvin a ¡®stupid.¡¯ He must have a reason for that.¡± Roselet pointed out, defending her father. ¡°Yeah! Yeah! How can we forget that Calvin has awyer by his side.¡± Tiara said, rolling her eyes while othersughed. ¡°Mr. Haysbert¡­¡± ¡°Call me Uncle if you¡¯re notfortable with dad. And who knows, after this date and after knowing each other a little better, you might start calling me ¡®DAD.''¡± Brandon offered. Ethlyn was touched by his gesture and just couldn¡¯t say NO. **** At the same time, Calvin was in the hospital for his mate, who was injured, and the doctors were treating her. ¡®She is a human.¡¯ Keanu said in tension because humans were weak in most of things. ¡®Better for Colton; otherwise, he would have wanted to kill her every single second. Just like when a vampire is mated with a human.¡¯ ¡®You really want to give herpletely to your brother?¡¯ Keanu asked. He knew Calvin¡¯s decision to give up on their mate for his brother but now that that moment was here for real. He wasn¡¯t sure that he wanted to support his human in this decision.¡¯ . #TBC 107 Werewolves were known as the most possessive creature of all, and giving something that belonged to them wasn¡¯t something that they ever did. ¡®Keanu, I know what you are feeling right now. And after finding our fated mate, you¡¯re least worried for my brother at this moment, but I know you love our pup more than anything, more than our fated mate whom Moon Goddess has chosen for us. So, please don¡¯t forget that we¡¯remitted to Ethlyn.¡¯ Calvin reminded him. ¡®But you also told her that if things wouldn¡¯t work out between you two, then you both will part away.¡¯ Keanu reminded him and thought about his future with his mate. ¡®But I also told her that I would give it an HONEST try. If you¡¯re thinking that we should find each and every moment to kick her out of our life by rejecting her, that will be unfair to both Ethlyn and Rose. Do you want to stoop low in Rose¡¯s eyes?¡¯ Calvin questioned, on which Keanu whimpered and didn¡¯t say anything because they both knew who was the first priority in their life. ¡®Damn, it reminded me that I had asked Ethlyn out for dinner and forgot to inform her that I wouldn¡¯t be arriving there.¡¯ Calvin hissed, realizing his mistake. He was about to mindlink her to inform her about the same, but that was when he remembered that she couldn¡¯t answer him back because she wasn¡¯t added to the pack yet. And it would be a little rude to just inform her without listening to what she had to say in return. So, he dialed her number, which was still saved with the name ¡®Love,¡¯ but Ethlyn didn¡¯t receive his call. He redialed her number again, but she again didn¡¯t receive the call. ¡®Look like she is pissed or slept already? But there is no way she can sleep this early when there are so many people at home.¡¯ Calvin thought and dialed her number again, and this time she received the call. ¡°Hello.¡± ¡°Where were you? Why were you not receiving my phone? Don¡¯t tell me you¡¯re mad at me because, till now, we don¡¯t even share that rtionship where you can get mad at me, or I can get mad at you.¡± Calvin said, getting irritated. ¡°Rx, Alpha Calvin,¡± Ethlyn said calmly. ¡°I¡¯m not mad at you because I know you might have been stuck with something important.¡± ¡°Ahh. That¡¯s cool. But if you were not mad, then why were you not receiving my phone?¡± Calvin questioned. ¡°That¡¯s because I¡¯m on a date.¡± Hearing this, red hot invisible smoke starteding out of Calvin¡¯s ear. ¡°And I didn¡¯t want to get disturbed, but it looked like you weren¡¯t going to stop calling me, but unwillingly I ended up receiving the call.¡± ¡®Why the hell am I getting jealous? She might be on a date with Rose.¡¯ Calvin convinced himself, knowing very well that how his daughter was, but he couldn¡¯t stop himself from asking, ¡°Date? With whom? Are you with Rose?¡± ¡°No. Rose sent me with someone else.¡± ¡°Someone else? Who? Tell me, Ethlyn, that someone else is a woman.¡± Calvin said in a threatening tone, controlling himself from growling in the hospital. ¡°No. He is a man. And I must say Rose chose a perfect man for this evening. He is a gentleman and not at all annoying.¡± That was it. It was thest piece of control that both Calvin and Keanu were holding, and immediately his legs started walking outside the hospital. He wasn¡¯t going to spare that man who took Ethlyn out. He quickly mind-linked the guards of the pack to confirm whether Ethlyn really left the pack, and he was pissed when the answer was YES. ¡®With whom?¡¯ ¡®I don¡¯t know, Alpha. The scent of the person in the car was masked. And since it was your family¡¯s car. We didn¡¯t check it. All we were told was that the Luna was in the car.¡¯ The guard informed. Calvin bit his inner cheek when he realized that Caroline helped Ethlyn by masking the scent. ¡°I can¡¯t believe you, Ethlyn. Just because I didn¡¯t show up to take you out on a date, you went with someone else?¡± He hissed, starting his car. ¡°And dare to me our daughter for this. She is a baby. She suggested this maybe to cheer you up. You could have said ¡®NO.''¡± ¡°I could have, but I didn¡¯t. Anyways, I¡¯m ending the call because you¡¯re spoiling my evening.¡± ¡°Spoiling your evening? I swore once I would be there, I will beat the shit out of the man who dared to ask you out.¡±Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°And I will bite his ass,¡± Keanu growled. ¡°Just tell me, where the hell are you right now?¡± ¡°Why? Complete your work first. I will go back home safely after dinner. And I assure you I will just have dinner and dance with him. NO KISSES.¡± Keanu growled loudly, ¡°If he dares touch you, then he will regret the day on which he was born, Ethlyn. Now tell me the damn ce where you¡¯re now?¡± he roared. ¡°At Artemis¡¯s hotel. I¡¯m enjoying my beautiful evening on the terrace of the building under the moonlight and¡­¡± Keanu disconnected the call and drove like crazy to reach there as soon as possible. He wasn¡¯t going to leave that man. If Roselet knew him that he might be close to Calvin as well, but no matter how close that person would be, he would wake up in the hospital the next morning. After twenty minutes!! Calvin reached the terrace and found Ethlyn in the arm of a man whose scent was hidden, and he could just watch his back, but Ethlyn¡¯s face was clear. She was definitely enjoying hispany, and this could be guessed by her wide smile. ¡®How dare you, Colton?¡¯ Calvin thought and marched toward them in pure rage. . #TBC 108 He had never thought a day woulde when he would hit his brother for a woman, but here it is. He was so pissed that he couldn¡¯t think that both Colton and he were almost a carbon copy of his father. Calvin was about to attack Brandon when he turned at thest second and grabbed Calvin¡¯s fist. ¡°Hello, son!!¡± ¡°Dadddddd,¡± Calvin¡¯s jaw dropped. * A moment before!! Ethlyn was having a good time with Brandon while talking with him, knowing him personally about his likes and dislikes, his birthday, and other minor things. She realized that, unlike Calvin, his father was not talkative. He was a man of few words. ¡°This is the first time I¡¯m speaking so much,¡± Brandon confessed. ¡°I felt that because you want me to keep speaking, and your facial expression changed on its own when you realized that it¡¯s your time to speak.¡± Ethlyn smiled. ¡°Am I boring a little?¡± Brandon asked to which Ethlyn shook her head. ¡°Come on, don¡¯t lie to me,¡± Brandon said, to which Ethlyn started nodding her head. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I didn¡¯t mean to..¡± ¡°It¡¯s fine, Ethlyn. There is Nothing wrong in showing a mirror to the person about how he or she is.¡± Brandon said, cutting her in between. ¡°I was worst than this before Sophia¡¯s entry into my life,¡± he added with a smile. ¡°Really?¡± ¡°Yes!! I wonder how did she fall in love with me? And somehow, if she fell in love with me, then how is she still in love with a boring person?¡± Brandon chuckled. ¡°Maybe because she saw something in you that nobody couldn¡¯t. And I feel youplement each other like she is talkative and you¡¯re a good listener. She is an extrovert, and you¡¯re an introvert.¡± Ethlyn said before adding, ¡°Since I¡¯m not very talkative. I want someone who can speak.¡± ¡°Someone like Calvin, isn¡¯t it?¡± Brandon questioned. ¡°What? Nooo. He is annoying.¡± Ethlyn said quickly, but he watched Brandon arching his eyebrow. ¡°You want to talk about it?¡± Brandon offered, ¡°Because one thing I¡¯m good at is in listening.¡±Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°No, no, I¡¯m not a baby who willin about his pup to his father.¡± ¡°You sure?¡± ¡°Mm.. hmm. Nothing to talk about him. It¡¯s just that Alpha Calvin is Alpha Calvin. Never show up at the right time. You know. Yes, of course, you know, after all, he is your son.¡± Ethlyn spoke. Brandon nodded his head, watching clearly that Ethlyn was hurt and mad but was trying her best to cover it up. ¡°Yeah. I know. Go ahead. Pour whatever is in your heart.¡± ¡°No!! No!! I¡¯m fine. As I said that¡­ I don¡¯t want to rant like a baby.¡± Ethlyn muttered and took a sip of red wine in front of her. ¡°I know being an Alpha; there can be a lot of things on his te. First, he wanted to know everything that happened to me in the past, and when I came here, I ended up creating a war between the hunter and the pack. And maybe many more other things. I want to ask for whom he is doing this, directly or indirectly. For me, right? Then why couldn¡¯t he spare a few hours for me?¡± She questioned Brandon on which he listened to her calmly. ¡°I don¡¯t know why he ends up ruining his every first impression in front of me. When I saw him first, I thought he was a characterless and shameless man with no brain, which was not totally true, and now this. If he was busy, then he shouldn¡¯t have asked me at the first moment. And when something urgent came up at thest moment, then he could have told me but NOPE¡­¡± Ethlyn shook her head. ¡°He vanished with no exnation, Nothing. How much time would it have taken? Two minutes to five minutes? But nope, THE GREAT ALPHA IS VERY BUSY. He didn¡¯t even drop a single message or call about the same.¡± ¡°I felt like stupid when I was all ready, and he didn¡¯t show up,¡± Ethlyn shouted at Brandon in frustration. She drank another sip of wine before adding, ¡°It tastes weird. I mean, in a good way, weird.¡± ¡°I know.¡± ¡°If you think that I¡¯m hurt, then you¡¯re wrong because I¡¯m all good. And I understand he is busy because he has a lot of work, unlike me, who is useless.¡± Ethlyn spoke again. Brandon wanted to clear her that she wasn¡¯t useless, but she beat him. ¡°What do you think? Where is he busy at this hour? It¡¯s Saturday today, so his office will obviously be closed in the human world. Then what is he doing out there in the human world?¡± ¡°If you want, then I can call him and ask about it.¡± ¡°No. It¡¯s fine. In fact, I¡¯m wondering why I even care. This sounds so stupid.¡± ¡°This is your feelings, Ethlyn, and trusts me with it, and feelings are not stupid.¡± ¡°But any feelings for Alpha Calvin are stupid. He is out there, not even thinking about me while I¡¯m talking about him non-stop. We are just the parents of Roselet. Nothing else. So, I shouldn¡¯t be talking about someone who is Nothing but just a father of my pup.¡± ¡°Okay, I agree. He always had my back from the moment Inded here. And he does that because I¡¯m the mother of his pup, Nothing romantic.¡± ¡°So, what are you upset about that he doesn¡¯t have any romantic feelings for you?¡± Brandon questioned. . #TBC 109 ¡°Noooo. Of course, not. It¡¯s not about romantic feelings, but it¡¯s about his absence without any message or anything.¡± Ethlyn said, and her eyes moisturized a little, ¡°I don¡¯t expect him to make me his first priority because I understand that he has other responsibilities as well. But this is not done. How will he feel if I will do the same to him?¡± ¡°I¡¯m sure that he will have some exnation.¡± ¡°Which I won¡¯t hear at all,¡± Ethlyn muttered in anger, trying to hold her tears. ¡°Right now, I just hate myself for expecting anything for him, even if it includes his time. I just hate that I might sound like a love-sick puppy to you, but I¡¯m not. I¡¯m not in love. I¡¯m not¡­ it¡¯s just that he told me that he would honestly give it a try to this¡­ this rtionship but if he will behave like this, then I¡¯m not sure it will work, and in the end, I might have to leave Rose because she won¡¯t leave her father.¡± ¡°I really want to give an honest try, Uncle,¡± Ethlyn muttered sadly. ¡°And it hurts to see that the other person doesn¡¯t share the same feelings just as mine.¡± Immediately, Ethlyn¡¯s eyes traveled to her phone when it rang, and her cheeks turned red when she found Brandon reading the name on the disy of her phone. ¡®Daddy.¡¯ ¡®Moon Goddess!! I should have renamed Alpha Calvin¡¯s name.¡¯ She mentally thought. ¡°Pick it up. I¡¯m sure your dad has something important to speak.¡± Brandon said, thinking it was Christian Smith¡¯s call. They had earlier decided to keep the phone away and enjoy each other¡¯spany rather than giving priority to the phone. Hearing it, Ethlyn started coughing. ¡°Ac¡­ Actually, Uncle, It was Rose¡¯s phone. She didn¡¯t need it now, so she gave it to me. That¡¯s why the ¡®Daddy¡¯ here is Alpha Calvin.¡± She muttered, feeling embarrassed. ¡°May I?¡± She asked before receiving it. ¡°Oh! Finally, he remembered that he had a date tonight.¡± Brandon muttered, not really pleased with his son¡¯s behavior. ¡°Don¡¯t receive it. I want to see something.¡± He added on, which Ethlyn didn¡¯t argue. ¡°You know this ¡®Daddy¡¯ name reminded me of something. When Calvin was of Rose¡¯s age, even smaller than Rose, he had saved my number in Sophia¡¯s phone with ¡®Daddy¡¯ name, and one of her office staff assumed that Sophia had some sugar daddy.¡± ¡°What?¡± Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened in shock while Brandon nodded his head with a smile and observed how Calvin called her twice without wasting time. It made Brandon realize that his son was desperate to talk with Ethlyn. ¡°Ah! Now I have a n, Ethlyn.¡± Brandon said and exined everything to her in short when her phone stopped ringing after a second full ring. Her phone started ringing for the third time, on which Brandon¡¯s signaled her to receive the call and heard everything that Calvin told about him, unknowingly, while Ethlyn tried to control herughter during the call. They both started waiting for his arrival, and the moment, Ethlyn sensed Calvin, she couldn¡¯t control her big smile, thinking about the things that were going to happen next. For a second, she was scared, thinking that Calvin might end up hurting his own father in this prank. But thankfully, Brandon was quick to stop Calvin. ¡°Hello, son!!¡± Brandon said with a smirk on his lips while Calvin¡¯s face paled, finding his father with Ethlyn.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Dadddddd,¡± ¡°What did you say before, ¡®I swore once I would be there, I will beat the shit out of the man who dared to ask you out.¡¯ huh?¡± Brandon questioned, to which Calvin shook his head. There was no way he could do that. ¡°And Keanu, you will bite my ass, huh?¡± Hearing this, Calvin¡¯s wolf disappeared as soon as possible. ¡°What else he had said, Ethlyn?¡± Ethlyn grinned before speaking, ¡°If he dares touch you, then he will regret the day on which he was born.¡± Calvin red at her for all this misunderstanding. ¡°I will regret the day I was born?¡± Brandon asked. ¡°No!! No¡­No, dad¡± Calvin kept shaking his head, and the next moment, Brandon twisted his hand. It wasn¡¯t that he couldn¡¯t fight, but he remained standing like an innocent kid that he was years back for Brandon. ¡°Dadddd,¡± He cried when Brandon spanked his buttock. ¡°Daddd¡­ I didn¡¯t know it was you.¡± Calvin tried to justify his point when Brandon spanked him for the second time. ¡°Ouch,¡± He hissed when Brandon twisted his wrist more tightly. ¡°That wants me to hit you more,¡± Brandon growled in anger. ¡°You have no right to act in that way. First, when you weren¡¯t there for her, and then you were getting mad at the person who was for her. I mean seriously, Calvin Logan Haysbert?¡± he asked, leaving Calvin¡¯s wrist and letting him go. ¡°I¡­¡± Calvin thought over the words that Brandon said, and he realized that his father was right. ¡°There are many stupids out there who realize the importance of things or people after losing them, so don¡¯t be one of them. I was lucky that your mother¡¯s hand was so busy handling you two that she didn¡¯t get time to fall in love again, but I can¡¯t say that you will be lucky, just like me.¡± Brandon said to which Calvin red at Ethlyn, silently warning her that she wasn¡¯t allowed to fall in love with someone else. ¡°Don¡¯t give her that look to my daughter.¡± Brandon made him look toward him, into his eyes. ¡°Or I will take your eyes out of your body.¡± Calvin¡¯s eyes widened upon hearing this. He wondered what kind of magic Ethlyn did on his father in his absence. . #TBC 110 There were already three daughters against two sons, and now the fourth one was added. ¡®This is so unfair.¡¯ He mentally thought. The whole universe knew how a father favored the daughter over the son. ¡®Mommm.¡¯ He mentally thought. ¡°Don¡¯t tell me that you haven¡¯t let my boy eat dinner.¡± He heard his mother¡¯s voice, and he quickly turned around only to see Sophia appearing there out of nowhere through Caroline¡¯s teleportation power. Well, she wasn¡¯t alone. Caroline and Artemis, along with Liara and Theodore, were also with her. When Calvin was on the way to Artemis¡¯s hotel, Brandon called Sophia and asked her out for dinner by exining the sudden change in the n. So, she took all this time to get ready for this sudden dinner n. And not just her; she also suggested both her daughter enjoy their night by doing something else except jumping on each other at the bed. It didn¡¯t take Artemis more than a couple of minutes to arrange three extra tables for all of them. Though the best view and the best location was the one which was booked by Calvin for the date and was big enough to adjust all of them but why to be third wheels between them? ¡°Look at his face, he hasn¡¯t eaten anything for a long time and¡­¡± Sophia looked toward the table. ¡°And it looks like you didn¡¯t even let him order anything till now.¡± She scolded Brandon, and that was when Calvin realized that he was indeed super duper hungry. ¡®Moon Goddess! I could never understand the power of my mom. How can she find out even those things that I¡¯m not aware of?¡¯ Calvin thought. Till a moment before, he didn¡¯t know he was hungry, but now he was. ¡°Come on!! Leave them alone. Arti has booked individual ces for us as well.¡± Sophia said and grabbed Brandon¡¯s wrist to take him from there. ¡°And you, keep a timetable of your eating habits. You¡¯re getting thinner with each passing day.¡± Sophia scolded Calvin. ¡®But I haven¡¯t lost a single pound.¡¯ Calvin thought but didn¡¯t argue because, in the end, MOM IS ALWAYS RIGHT. The moment everyone left, Calvin grabbed Ethlyn¡¯s arms and pulled her close to him. ¡°Looks like you were enjoying a lot,¡± he growled at her mouth. ¡°Well, why not? It¡¯s not every day when I watch Uncle spanking you.¡± Saying, she grinned while Calvin stared at her with hooded eyes. All of a sudden, her breath hitched when Calvin grabbed her ass, pulling her closer to him. Calvin smirked when with one act, theughter of Ethlyn vanished, and also how her heart started thudding loudly. He enjoyed the way her body reacted under his touch. ¡°This was your cheap way to bring me here.¡± Calvin used her on which she red up at him and started to stay away from that jerk. Little did she know that her wiggling awakened his rod. ¡°I never asked you toe here if you remember my words clearly. I made clear that I told you toplete your work.¡± Ethlyn growled, and her eyes widened when in less than a minute, she felt Calvin¡¯s manhood against her stomach, making her realize his presence. Ethlyn quickly stopped wiggling. ¡°Why did you stop? Keep wiggling. I was enjoying a lot.¡± Calvin spoke shamelessly. ¡°And I¡¯m sure you will enjoy it too.¡± ¡°Leave it.¡± ¡°Why? You wanted me here, didn¡¯t you? Otherwise, you would have never created this misunderstanding, and I would never havee here.¡± ¡°Did you ever even ask that with whom I was here? Nope. So, you can¡¯t me me for not answering those questions you never asked. So, stop ming me. You should ask yourself why you are here. Because neither did I ask you to be here nor did I create any misunderstanding.¡± Ethlyn defended herself, shutting Calvin¡¯s mouth. They kept looking into each other¡¯s eyes with anger.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Tell me, why are you here, Alpha Calvin?¡± She asked again. Calvin opened his mouth, but no words came out of his mouth. That was because he had no fucking answer to this question. ¡°Your wolf could have sensed immediately if I would have cheated on you with someone, so please don¡¯t give me that excuse.¡± She added in a low tone, not leaving his eyes even for a second. ¡°I was concerned for you. You know that those hunters are after you, especially.¡± Calvin replied more like he lied because he didn¡¯t want to admit that he¡­ he was jealous with the thought of her spending time with someone else, especially any male that excluded that was of a father like Ethlyn, like any uncle or her real father, or son alike to Ethlyn, like Artin, Xavier or any other male pup. ¡°Lies,¡± Ethlyn mumbled after taking a deep breath. She ced her hand over his chest above his heart. She observed how his heart was pounding against his chest. His situation was no less than hers, and that was true because Calvin was getting tempted by her closeness who wanted to throw Ethlyn on the table and fuck her till dawn. ¡°Why are you here, Alpha?¡± She asked softly, hoping him to speak the truth. ¡°Because I¡¯m hungry,¡± Calvin replied, pushing her away. ¡°And this time, you can even smell that I¡¯m not lying.¡± He taunted. ¡°So, let¡¯s eat.¡± He added, tearing his gaze from her. She gave him an irritated look but then focused her mind on the dinner because, just like Calvin, even she was hungry, and she had had nothing with Brandon because they were busy talking the whole time. Well, it was Ethlyn, who talked about Calvin the whole time, and Brandon heard her. Calmly and with patience. After a while, they ordered food, a lot of food to be exact, but something was still bothering both of them, especially the tension among them. The silence between them was eating both of them, but neither of them what to speak. . #TBC 111 They couldn¡¯t have any conversation without fighting or arguing. Calvin¡¯s little member was still disturbing him. He med Ethlyn¡¯s wiggle, wiggle for that. On the other side, he was hungry, and the food they had ordered was still not there yet. Ethlyn could sense this aura that he was releasing in anger and frustration. ¡°If you¡¯re angry because you have to stay here, leaving your important work, then you can leave,¡± Ethlyn said, thinking Calvin was mad at her. ¡°Damnit!!¡± Calvin mmed his hand on the round table in front of him and stood up on his feet only to reach near her in a second. In the next second, his lips were against her. ¡®What the fuck!!¡¯ She thought in shock. A moment before, she was sitting on her chair talking to Calvin. In the next moment, he reached near her only to pull her up from her seat harshly and m his lips against her. She wasn¡¯t expecting this at all. She gasped when Calvin squeezed her ass, only to enter his tongue in her mouth. ¡°Kiss me back.¡± He growled against her mouth. Ethlyn wrapped her hands around his neck and kissed him back with the same passion. The world around them disappeared once they lost in each other in a passionate kiss. Calvin buried his hands in her hair and tugged her as much as closer to him. He felt nice having every part of her molded to every part of his body. He couldn¡¯t help the way; Ethyln was making him feelplete. He enjoyed, feeling her breast pressed against his chest. She moaned and ran her hands upon his chest, trying her best not to tear it into pieces. Calvin¡¯s lips ced more pressure on her as if he would eat her instead of food. He sensed waiters with their food, so he used his hand to signal them to leave. They kept the food on the table and didn¡¯t wait to ask whether they needed anything else or to serve them. Throughout the kiss, Ethlyn kept wiggling in his arms because what Calvin had mentioned then was true. She liked his manhood rubbing against her stomach. ¡°Stop moving, Ethlyn.¡± He said breathlessly, breaking the kiss and pressing his forehead against her. ¡°Or I will fuck you right here, right now.¡± He mumbled, touching her swollen lips and admiring his piece of art on her lips. ¡°Besides, we both are hungry.¡± ¡°Yeah!¡± Ethlyn agreed, and at the same time, her stomach growled, embarrassing her a little. She looked downward, not wanting to meet Calvin¡¯s gaze, but her cheeks flushed when her eyesnded on her art of work on Calvin¡¯s manhood. She was positive that Calvin would have been in great pain because of this erection against his pant. Calvin smirked before speaking, ¡°You need to take care of it after dinner.¡± While saying this, he showed his hand to her asking her to settle on her seat, and he walked toward his seat to attack the food because even he was too hungry. ¡°Why would I? Take care of your asset on your own.¡± Ethlyn responded with a frown. ¡°My asset? Wow!! A medical student is using themercenguage. Anyways, my asset is your liability. So, you have to take care of it in one way or another.¡± Calvin pointed out and pressed the switch under his table so that waiters would be there to serve both of them. Ethlyn was about to speak something when Calvin beat her in that, ¡°Arrange your hair a little. I don¡¯t want to kill a human for staring at you for more than 15 seconds because of your look.¡± ¡°As if I will let that happen,¡± Ethlyn muttered, arranging her hair. ¡°You will find me between you and any innocent human, even if I will have to lose my whole teeth for that.¡± Hearing it, Calvin recalled the incident of breaking one of her teeth in anger. He wasn¡¯t guilty for it at all, and neither he could he fix what had already been done. But it did remind him that because of the loss of her canine teeth, Cinder would feel a hard time catching her prey, and even Ethlyn couldn¡¯t mark him properly. ¡®Damn!! Why didn¡¯t I think about it until now?¡¯ He wondered and kept in mind to ask to search for a dentist in werewolves world who could fix this problem. Ethlyn observed thinking something deeply and started eating food at the same time. She didn¡¯t raise any topic for a while, but again his silence started haunting her. Once the waiter left after filling Calvin¡¯s te, she spoke, ¡°I have decided that I won¡¯t take care of your not-so-little member.¡± She had never thought that she would speak this shamelessly. But she med Calvin for it. She was turning like him by staying with him. ¡°Seriously? You¡¯re still there?¡± Calvin asked in disbelief. ¡°By the way, don¡¯t forget that what did you promise mest night?¡± he reminded. ¡°If you have forgotten that part then I¡¯m repeating it again, ¡®Tomorrow night and all other nights, I¡¯m allowed to fuck you until my NOT SO LITTLE MEMBER will be satisfied.¡± He said, mimicking her tone. ¡°No way! I didn¡¯t sign up for this.¡± Ethlyn said, shaking her head. ¡°Not after you fucked me like a beast after I had fallen asleep. And at thest thing, I remember you not so little member was satisfied and you were all drained by the morning. Long story short, you were fully satisfied. So, I¡¯m not liable for anything.¡± Calvin hissed when he realized that Ethlyn was right. But he had to trap her into this in any way without requesting for IT. ¡°I will tell you why did Ie here if you will take care of my baby.¡± Calvin offered. ¡°Umm.. exciting offer, but sorry, time expires. Now, I already know the answer to that question.¡± Ethlyn said, teasing him a little. But deep down, she wanted him to confess it without any condition. .Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. #TBC 112 ¡°That¡­ that wasn¡¯tpletely true. You know that don¡¯t you?¡± Calvin said on which the yful smile on Ethlyn¡¯s lips vanished. ¡°In that case, I also know why were you here. It¡¯s just that I want to hear it from your mouth.¡± Ethlyn spoke, keeping her point straight and clear instead of ying with words like a teenager. They kept looking into each other¡¯s eyes. ¡®An honest try,¡¯ Calvin recalled his own word. He sighed before speaking, ¡°I was jealous.¡± Before a smile could have appeared on Ethlyn¡¯s face listening to these three magical words, Calvin continued, ¡°Please don¡¯t be hopeful. It¡¯s because of the one-sided bond.¡± ¡°Mm.. hmm. I know.¡± Ethlyn nodded her head, agreeing with him. ¡°I know.¡± To hide the pain that she felt from Calvin¡¯s blunt reply, she changed the topic, ¡°By the way, what was that urgent work because of which you didn¡¯t show up?¡± She asked casually. Calvin was taken aback by her question. He had two options at that moment, one, either to skip the question, or second, to tell her the truth. And he really felt that he should go for the second one. He had never lied to his daughter then how could he do lie to the mother of his pup? Also, when he was trying to be honest, then he should go for the truth even if it would hurt her. Her mother always told him that three things couldn¡¯t be hidden for long, the sun, the moon, and the truth. ¡°Remember the incident that happened when you walked out of the mall?¡± Calvin asked to which she nodded her head. ¡°Those hunters were behind the bars for kidnapping you, and I had nned that I would find out about them through the officer, but those hunters attacked the police station.¡± Ethlyn gasped, hearing this. ¡°Not just those captured hunters fled but also a couple of other criminals who were behind bars. Those monsters kept on firing at the police station until each and every people present there was either injured or dead. That was why I ran over that ce as soon as possible because the officer had found out the detail of one of the hunters, and I had to ask him about them.¡± Calvin narrated to her everything about how the officer was dead by the moment he reached there. Hearing all this, Ethlyn now felt guilty for calling Calvin here by ying with words while he was helping those poor officers in the hospital. ¡°I¡¯m so sorry.¡± Ethlyn apologized. ¡°May Moon Goddess give peace to the soul of those officers who couldn¡¯t make it today.¡± She said and felt she was the reason behind all this. ¡°Don¡¯t be sad, Ethlyn. Maybe this was their fate.¡± Calvin tried to cheer her up. ¡°Along with all this, I want to confess that¡­ that I found my fated mate.¡± ¡°You what?¡± ¡°I¡­ I found my fated mate.¡± Calvin repeated his words and saw the same expression on Ethlyn¡¯s face that he had expected. ***** On the other side!!! ¡°A trap isid for your brother. Save him before it is toote.¡± Colton read the letter. ¡®What trap?¡¯ Colton thought and checked the letter again to see if something other else was written on it or not, but he couldn¡¯t find anything. ¡®Surely, this stupid will have trusted someone easily. It looks like I have to save his ass from getting a kick.¡¯ With this, he fished in his pocket in search of his phone and dialed Zordan¡¯s number. ¡°Share the schedule of Calvin outside of the pack for the next couple of days.¡± After a minute, he got Calvin¡¯s schedule out of the pack, but it was from Monday. Sunday was missing. And he knew who could help him with the Sunday schedule.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°Haysbert. Roselet Haysbert.¡± Roselet received the call from the other end, talking like some detective. ¡°What¡¯s Calvin¡¯s n for tomorrow?¡± ¡°Nothing much. He told me that we would go to someone¡¯s ce for a family dinner.¡± ¡°Oh, okay.¡± Colton started thinking about it before asking, ¡°Why are you acting like a detective, by the way?¡± ¡°Calvin gave me a task to find who mixed something into Mommy¡¯s drink by watching a video, but I couldn¡¯t find any lead, Uncle Colt.¡± ¡°That¡¯s because you¡¯re looking for something specific, which your daddy told you, but a detective has to look at all the factors instead of just one. Just look for that moment since when your mommy held her head or started walking with support or something like that.¡± ¡°Okay. I get it. I will let you know if the mystery gets solved. Over and out.¡± ¡°Sure. All the best.¡± * Calvin¡¯s words shocked Ethlyn. She couldn¡¯t understand how she should react. She wouldn¡¯t lie, but one of the truths of her life was that she definitely didn¡¯t like this at all. She wanted to ask Moon Goddess why now? She meant all these years when she wasn¡¯t in Calvin¡¯s life. He didn¡¯t find his mate, but the moment he talked about a future with her¡­ Tada¡­ Mate took an entry into his life. Why did the truth have the power to break her heart and hope beyond repair? She was already dealing with the shock of her mother and her sister¡¯s truth, and now this. She couldn¡¯t believe that she was really listening to this for real until she reconfirmed it and she got the same answer. ¡®So, what now? He will reject us?¡¯ Cinder asked her human. ¡®I don¡¯t know.¡¯ Ethlyn replied. She tried to mask her expression before speaking, ¡°Cong¡­Congrattion, Alpha Calvin.¡± She said with a tight smile on her lips. ¡°You can reject me.¡± She added by keeping the stone on her heart. She shouldn¡¯t be feeling bad, right? She was aware of this situation. . #TBC 113 ¡°I would be lying if I would say that I¡¯m not happy that I found my mate, but it doesn¡¯t mean that I¡¯m going to reject you. I¡­I told you before that I want my brother to have our mate.¡± Calvin stuttered while saying thest sentence, and this didn¡¯t go unnoticed by Ethlyn. ¡°I appreciate that you spoke the truth first, but please don¡¯t lie to yourself. You don¡¯t want to do that, do you?¡± Ethlyn asked, even when she was getting hurt while asking that question. Calvin¡¯s silence broke her heart. She just wished him to speak that whatever she asked was just her assumption, but it wasn¡¯t. His silence made her believe that he would reject her sooner orter by taking his fated mate in. She wanted to tell the truth to Calvin that she wouldn¡¯t be able to take this heartache again. The selfish part of her didn¡¯t want that to leave but wouldn¡¯t be so wrong by forcing herself into someone¡¯s life. She had thought that from today onwards, there would be a new beginning for both of them after all the issue with her character was solved, but it looked like that was not the case. Fate had nned something else for her. ¡°But that doesn¡¯t mean I want to reject you. I didn¡¯t have held your hand to leave you.¡± Calvin spoke. His heartache, seeing her expression, observing how hard she was trying to show that everything was all right, that she was all right. ¡°You better not think about keeping both of us because I won¡¯t be your mistress,¡± Ethlyn growled at him after hearing his words. Thest thing she would wish to be the third wheel in anyone¡¯s rtionship. Maybe because of Calvin¡¯s fear, everyone might respect her, but behind her back, everyone would call her by the same name; she knew that. And she wants to lose her self-respect in her own eyes. Calvin was taken aback by Ethlyn¡¯s anger, but how did he expect her to behave? It was clear from her end that he had the option of choosing only one. Ethlyn watched his tensed face and knew it was a tough decision for him, but he had to take this decision, and in case he wouldn¡¯t be able to make this decision sooner, then she would have to because she was scared the more time Calvin would take to decision, the more her feelings for him would start increasing for him. She was scared that in the end, she might fall in love with this stupid and annoying Alpha, but he wouldn¡¯t. And she had read somewhere, ¡®Don¡¯t make someone a priority in your life when you¡¯re only an option in theirs.¡¯ She didn¡¯t speak but had already made a mental note that she would leave him like a choice if she would feel that she was just a choice for him. ¡°I¡­ I¡¯m sorry. I didn¡¯t want to say that though it sounded like that.¡± Calvin apologized and clenched his fist tightly when he realized that he was the reason behind Ethlyn¡¯s pain. He was mad at himself, but he couldn¡¯t do anything to make her feel better. ¡°It¡¯s okay. I know you didn¡¯t want to make me in that way.¡± Ethlyn mumbled in a heavy voice. She prayed in her mind to give her strength because she really didn¡¯t want to cry in front of Calvin. She focused all her mind on food and started eating it like a maniac ignoring all the table manners. Calvin observed that but didn¡¯t say anything because he knew that what she was trying to do. Just like he had a habit of eating food in the middle of the night, in the same way, he knew that his daughter had a habit of eating a lot of food when she would be upset. So, he could tell that Roselet had taken after her mother in this nature. They finished their food in silence, but it was eating both of them; even the car ride back to the pack was in silence. Calvin could swear that this was one of the longest times when he had stayed quiet. Ethlyn quickly walked out of the car to cry somewhere away from him.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Ethlyn.¡± Calvin stopped her because he didn¡¯t want to leave her alone even for a second. Ethlyn ignored him and continued to walk toward the pack house. ¡°Ethlyn¡± he shouted this time when he smelt her tears. ¡®Damn it.¡¯ He cursed and was about to follow her when his mobile rang. He received the call while walking toward Ethlyn. He was about to hold her arms when he heard. ¡°Hello, Calvin Haysbert?¡± ¡°Yes, speaking.¡± ¡°You asked me to inform let you know when the female patient would be awake for whom you stayed for hours in the hospital.¡± He heard the doctor speaking on the other side of the phone. Not just him, even Ethlyn heard this, and she now ran inside the elevator, not able to bear that, most probably, Calvin had already chosen whom he wanted by his side. ¡°I want to tell you that her situation is critical; you can check on her once before you lose that chance.¡± ¡°I will be there soon,¡± Calvin answered and disconnected the call. He hissed that he had to leave Ethlyn in her own state now. ¡®I promise I will make it for you. I promise you that.¡¯ He mumbled and ran back toward the car. * ¡°I don¡¯t think we can do anything. Her internal bleeding is not stopping at all, even after the surgery. And all her spinal cord has been damaged in the worst way, as if someone intentionally shot her.¡± The doctor informed Calvin once he was there. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Mr. Haysbert.¡± Calvin¡¯s heart sank when he heard that. He didn¡¯t want to lose his mate but instead of grieving over this news. He used his mind to save her. ¡°It¡¯s okay, doctor. Can you please prepare her discharge paper, then? I would like to take her to my home. So that she can be where she belongs.¡± Calvin said and mind-link the pack doctor to know the avability of the vampire blood. . #TBC 114 Though he knew that the answer would be negative but he asked him, and as expected, the result was the same as he had thought. Vampire blood was dangerous for werewolves, but it was the best medicine for humans in case of any injuries. And at that moment, if anything could stop Calvin¡¯s mate¡¯s injury was vampire blood. ¡®Or we can mark her. In that, I can help her in healing throughout the bond.¡¯ Keanu suggested. ¡®Let¡¯s keep that as thest chance to save her.¡¯ Calvin said, not really approving this as a suggestion. He had already marked Ethlyn. The moment he would mark his mate, Ethlyn would feel the pain of betrayal, and hurting her was thest thing that he wanted. He hadn¡¯t missed the hurt expression on her face. Calvin knew who could have vampire blood. He quickly dialed Colton¡¯s number, but his number wasn¡¯t avable, and again and again, his call was diverted to voicemail. ¡®Where is he?¡¯ He muttered in tension and dropped a message at Colton¡¯s message. ¡°Brother, I found our mate, and she is human. She is seriously injured. These human doctors are saying that there is nothing that is in their hands now. Can you quickly reach the pack with vampire blood? I¡¯m taking her there.¡± ¡°Be quick; otherwise, I will have to mark her to heal her. She doesn¡¯t have much time, so it¡¯s an emergency. And dare you to let ignore this message because I know you¡¯re not interested in having our mate but remember, if I will have her, then maybe your niece wouldn¡¯t feel good watching his father with someone other than her month.¡± Colton hissed when he heard this message approx twenty minutes. Calvin knew that though Colton never showed, but he loved all the kids of the family. And Roselet was his favorite one because he used to look after her in the absence of Calvin. The fact that Roselet didn¡¯t get a chance to spend her time with her mother. All other family members used to keep checking on her more often and helped Calvin to be the best dad that he was now. ¡®Maybe this was the trap about which it was mentioned in the letter.¡¯ Colton muttered, grabbing the vampire blood from his stock. ¡®But this couldn¡¯t be the full n. Something big is going on.¡¯ he kept thinking to understand the whole n that could have been prepared for Calvin. He thought to run to the pack instead of taking the car. He dialed Calvin¡¯s number, ¡°Please tell me that you didn¡¯t reach the pack with HER.¡± ¡°I just entered inside the pack. Why? What happened?¡± Calvin asked, on which Colton shook his head in the disaster that had been already done. He wanted to answer Calvin¡¯s question, but then he wasn¡¯t sure whether his allegation would be right or not. Maybe he could be wrong. Colton trusted his brother, who trusted him blindly but not his wolf, who wasn¡¯t a great fan of his because Colton was naturally his enemy. Just like wolves despise Vampires, in the same way, their feelings for other creatures who could be dangerous to them were no different. ¡°Okay, answer that questionter. Are you on the way or not?¡± ¡°I¡¯m on my way,¡± Colton replied. ¡°Just do me a favor that doesn¡¯t tell her about our little secret. Don¡¯t tell her that we are two.¡± ¡°But¡­¡± ¡°Without any question.¡± Colton cut him in between. ¡°I didn¡¯t ask you why haven¡¯t you shared with Roselet¡¯s mother that we are two, not one. So, do the same in this case.¡± Calvin didn¡¯t argue with him on this, but he understood that something was definitely cooking in his mind. He hid that information from Ethlyn because he wanted to have some fun and wanted Ethlyn to find that truth on her own. But Colton couldn¡¯t think that way. The FUN word didn¡¯t exist in his dictionary. Calvin didn¡¯t care to think about that part then because he was worried for his mate at that moment. By the time the doctor settled his mate in the pack hospital, Zordan had reached near and given him what he was waiting for. ¡°Here!!¡± Zordan gave it to the doctor. ¡°Moon Goddess!! Finally.¡± Calvin sighed in relief. At the same time, he knew that, unlike him, his brother was either a person punctual to time or before time. ¡®If in case he getste, then something is definitely wrong with him, or he is in trouble.¡¯ he thought with a smile and stayed near his mate. He wasn¡¯t nning to leave her side until she would finally awake. ¡®Alpha, he wants to talk with you and ask you to send you to the Alpha office.¡¯ Zordan mind-linked Calvin. ¡®I¡¯m not leaving anywhere right now.¡¯ ¡®It may be important.¡¯ Zordan added, to which Calvin looked at him for a while before speaking. ¡°Okay. You should go now. I¡¯m sure Reva will be waiting for you.¡± ¡°In that way, even Ethlyn will be waiting for you.¡± Zordan reminded him, making Calvin feel guilty. ¡°Anyway, good night. I¡¯m going to check on the guards on patrol and then go home. I hope you won¡¯t need anything for now.¡± ¡°Nope,¡± Calvin said and mind-linked Damian to reach the hospital, alloting his night duty there. Once Damian reached the hospital, he walked toward his office, wondering what Calvin had to say to him. ¡°What happened?¡± Calvin asked, walking inside his office. ¡°Is it about mate?¡± He asked in concern.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°First of all, she is just mine as per your formermitment.¡± Colton reminded him, widening Calvin¡¯s eyes. ¡°You told me that you would give a chance to Ethlyn only when I will ept my mate, and here I¡¯m. So, it will be better if you will stop acting like a parasite around her.¡± ¡°You¡­ really want her?¡± . #TBC 115 ¡°Yes.¡± ¡°Okay. Now better speak the truth because I know that you don¡¯t want to do anything with our mate.¡± Calvin said, crossing his arms around his chest. ¡°Is it because of Ethlyn? or for Rose? Maybe for Rose because you might be thinking of giving her aplete family with her real parents, but all pup is not that lucky.¡± Colton stared at him and realized that the more he would push away from the woman who he was calling his mate, either by forcefully or ckmailing, the more he would run toward her. ¡°Yeah. Maybe right. But she will be that one lucky pup whose real mom and dad will be part of the same family, if not together.¡± Colton said, and in the next moment, he threw Calvin away when heunched at Colton in anger. ¡°Ethlyn and I¡­¡± Calvin growled at him, dangerously cutting him in between. ¡°I will kill you, Colton, and would die happily even if I have to, but I swear, I won¡¯t mind ripping you apart.¡± Keanu threatened. ¡°Oh, I¡¯m scared.¡± Colton mocked, and immediately his eyes turned ck, and tattoos started appearing on his whole body. The ring on his finger turned into a sword. ¡®Kill him. Kill this mutt.¡¯ Colton heard his sword speaking. ¡®Holy shit.¡¯ Calvin cursed when Colton¡¯s sword started flying in the air, pointing toward him. Onceunched at him, the sword would rest in peace only when it would be finally stabbed him in his heart. ¡°Zordy told me¡­¡± Sophia walked in happily into Calvin¡¯s office and found Colton in the sword¡¯s power. She came happily to meet Colton because she learned from Zordan about Colton¡¯s presence when she reached the pack after dinner. While hearing Sophia¡¯s words, Colton returned back to his old self. ¡°Mom, I¡­¡± ¡°Surely, he would have said anything to piss you, and you being you, became hulk,¡± Sophia scolded both of them. ¡°I¡¯m staying here until one of you leaves.¡± She added and sat on the couch. After half an hour!! Calvin walked out of the cabin toward the elevator to stay by Ethlyn¡¯s side, leaving his mother with his other son. ¡°Try to mediate and control your anger, okay?¡± Sophia suggested. ¡°Or I should just stay away from you all,¡± Colton suggested and received a smack on his arms from his mother. ¡°Nonsense. I will have your back always until you find your mate. Or maybe you already did. Go and check on that woman whom Calvin had brought.¡± Sophia said to which Colton nodded his head. In the next couple of minutes, Colton was in the room where his mate was resting peacefully. He kept looking at her for hours without blinking, but he felt NOTHING for her. Colton knew that he was not fond of women, but as per studies, he should have felt something or anything for his mate, but the result was a big NO. Even a cruel and cold-hearted person feels something for their mate or finds her attractive, but I don¡¯t feel anything. This means only one thing. Either we are blessed with different mates, or you¡¯re neither of us mates.¡¯ Colton thought, ring at the woman sleeping in front of him. * Calvin walked into his penthouse and kept thinking about Colton¡¯s words again and again. ¡®Stay alert, brother, because the danger is going to visit you very soon. I don¡¯t know the ways.¡¯ He was positive the danger about which Colton was talking was rted to the hunters. And he really needed to put them in ce.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org. But that couldn¡¯t be possible until he figured out their n and stepped ahead of them. ¡®What happened? What are you thinking so hard?¡¯ Calvin asked his wolf. ¡®That we have to share our mate.¡¯ Keanu growled, thinking how Colton would be sitting beside their mate. Calvin chuckled before speaking, ¡®Just because he gave upon his every right doesn¡¯t mean he is born to sacrifice his everything for us. If not for you, I would have given up on her already because you didn¡¯t get a chance to know Colton, but I¡­ I was just a few minutes behind him, and I knew what he had done for me all my life. He has always stood ahead of me, acting like a big strong wall.¡¯ ¡®But why are you whining about Colton staying with her? It was you who agreed with it.¡± Calvin questioned his wolf, who kept pacing in his mind. ¡°That¡¯s because he said that he would spend time with Ethlyn if we stayed beside our mate. He better keeps his thought and hands off Ethlyn; he is only and only ours. Moon Goddess didn¡¯t destine her with him.¡± he growled in anger. He wanted to kick Colton¡¯s guts for saying so in front of him. While he was having his discussion with his wolf, he walked into the kitchen to drink water. Immediately he threw all the water out of his mouth when Caroline and Artemis arrived there out of nowhere. ¡°Moon Goddess!¡± He cried. ¡°Don¡¯t do this teleportation thing in the house. I got scared,¡± heined. Caroline giggled at first but then frowned. ¡°Why do I sense a witch around you?¡± She questioned. ¡°Really?¡± Calvin questioned and looked at Artemis, who raised his hand in the air. ¡°No idea about witch thing, Brother-inw.¡± Artemis said before adding, ¡°Only a witch has the power to sense that.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know then,¡± Calvin mumbled because he couldn¡¯t recall any witch near him, but Caroline still kept staring at him suspiciously. ¡°How do you feel? I mean, is anything unusual? Any change in emotions?¡± ¡°I feel perfectly fine.¡± ¡°Regina, he was with Ethlyn the whole evening,¡± Artemis suggested. ¡°I had sensed the same thing when I reached the terrace, but I was thinking of having a third baby at that moment. That was why I didn¡¯t notice it then.¡± Caroline said. ¡°You are nning for a pup?¡± Calvin asked in excitement. . #TBC 116 ¡°No. Not in that way.¡± Artemis chuckled. ¡°We¡¯re nning to adopt a pup,¡± he said more clearly. ¡°I don¡¯t want her to watch her in so much again. Of course, that pain was worth it, but we were thinking, why not adopt a pup and give a bright future to him or her.¡±Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°That¡¯s so cool.¡± Calvin expressed his thought. ¡°Anyways, let¡¯s not change the main topic. Calvin, stay very, very careful because if any witch gets a chance to enter the pack, then she can break the protective shield from inside that I have prepared. And then all your enemies can enter the pack.¡± ¡®Even Colton warned me about the uing danger. Now, this.¡¯ Calvin thought before speaking, ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I have already tightened the security of the pack.¡± he added, and it was true when Colton warned him about danger. He had already mind-linked warriors to stay alert and had increased security. He reached near Caroline and careless her cheek, ¡°Stop worrying. I¡¯m big enough to handle my problems.¡± ¡°That can¡¯t stop an elder sister from getting worried.¡± Caroline smiled and added, ¡°Just be careful with the people around you. And maybe deep down, you have figured it out on your own that who could be that witch who came around you because you¡¯re not that Calvin who used to allow multiple women around yourself. Good night.¡± ¡°Good night,¡± Calvin said. Both Calvin and Keanu understood who could be that witch about which Caroline was talking because they were around only one other woman, and now she was in the pack. But wouldn¡¯t this be wrong to judge anyone without knowing her? There were good witches as well, and Caroline was one of that examples. And witches are human with powers, so maybe that could be the reason he couldn¡¯t sense her power in her unconscious phase. Calvin was a little reluctant to walk into his own room, but finally, he did and saw Ethlyn sleeping on the other side of his bed, and lots of pillows were in the center of the bed. He recalled their previous conversation and how it ended up. He went into the washroom to freshen up, and after five minutes, he joined her in the bed after taking a bath. ¡°Are you mad at me?¡± Calvin whispered, knowing that she was awake by no reply came from her. ¡°I know you¡¯re awake, Ethlyn.¡± ¡°No. Why should I? I¡¯m mad at Moon Goddess.¡± ¡°You sure?¡± ¡°Yes. I¡¯m not mad at you.¡± ¡°Are you really not mad at me?¡± Calvin asked to reconfirm because her tone was rough. ¡°Why will I be mad at you, Alpha? We don¡¯t share that bond or rtionship, remember?¡± ¡°Then can I hug you?¡± ¡°Go and hug your mate,¡± Ethlyn growled, turning her head toward him. Calvin grinned when he realized that she was mad at him. There was a lot of reason to be mad at him, so he didn¡¯t waste time thinking about the reason. ¡°Okay, then! I¡¯m going to stay beside her.¡± He said nonchntly, widening Ethlyn¡¯s eyes. She watched Calvin leave the bed at the speed of a sloth. She quickly lunged at him, stopping him from leaving. He grinned, watching her res. He wrapped his arms around her waist. ¡°I wasn¡¯t leaving anyway,¡± he said, pushing a strand of her hair behind her ears. Ethlyn tried to pull herself from his grip, but she failed. It looked like this was a one-way route. She coulde in on her own wish but couldn¡¯t leave without his permission. ¡°She was in hospital. I couldn¡¯t stop myself.¡± Calvin whispered and narrated everything from the beginning until now to her. ¡°You brought her to the pack as well?¡± Ethlyn stated more as she asked. She couldn¡¯t believe the speed of everything that was happening. She wouldn¡¯t be surprised if, by tomorrow, his mate would bending on his penthouse. ¡°I had to. I told you that her situation was critical. Thankfully Colton brought vampire blood in time, or I would have to¡­.¡± ¡°Mark her?¡± Ethlyn¡¯s tongue burned with acid when she said these two words. She wasn¡¯t special whom he marked for saving her from the anger of the pack members. He could do the same for¡­ his mate. ¡°That was thest option, okay? I wasn¡¯t thinking of doing that in real.¡± Ethlyn wanted tough at his words. That thought came into his mind, and he was telling her that he wasn¡¯t thinking of doing anything like that in real. She wanted to tell him to observe his own words, but she didn¡¯t. Instead, she wanted to make this fact realized to him on his own. ¡°You really wouldn¡¯t have chosen to opt for that option if your brother wouldn¡¯t have been here?¡± ¡°But the good thing is that he arrived, right?¡± ¡°What if he wouldn¡¯t have been here?¡± Ethlyn asked her question again. ¡°Give me a clear answer, Alpha Calvin.¡± ¡°I would have marked her for saving her life.¡± Ethlyn didn¡¯t know whether the pain of betrayal would have hurt her or the pain of the truth. Someone had said right, ¡®Everyone wants the truth, but not everyone can handle the truth.¡¯ ¡°Please tell me that you are here because you wanted to. No one forced or asked you toe here.¡± Ethlyn asked, and her voice started breaking. She waited¡­ she waited for a while for Calvin¡¯s answer, but it never came. ¡°Leave me.¡± ¡°Ethlyn¡­¡± ¡°Please, Alpha. If you hesitate between her and me, don¡¯t choose me. You¡¯re free to go near her and stay by her side when she is in hospital. I don¡¯t want to spend a second with you whose body is with me, but his mind is someone else. I don¡¯t want to spend a second with you, who will be holding me in his arm and will keep thinking about somewhere else.¡± . #TBC 117 Ethlyn pleaded, and Calvin let her go. She knew that Calvin didn¡¯t want to hurt her. That was why he kept her updated with all the truth so that she wouldn¡¯t get hurt by knowing everything from someone else or anything like that.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. But unknowingly, he was still hurting her. ¡°Thank you.¡± She mumbled and looked into his eyes before speaking, ¡°Please LEAVE.¡± She watched Calvin¡¯s face pale. His mouth parted, and he gasped. ¡®Why do you look hurt, Alpha?¡¯ She asked in her mind. ¡®I¡¯m giving you what you want. You should be happy, right?¡¯ She turned her face in another direction to stop reading the wrong emotions in Calvin¡¯s eyes. He didn¡¯t want to be here with her in the first ce. Calvin grabbed his clothes and walked out of the room. And the moment he was out, Ethlyn started crying at her fate. * Calvin felt that he was nothing but a fucking mess because of his wolf, who wasn¡¯t able to decide what exactly he wanted. Well, he couldn¡¯t me him entirely. He knew that he was also responsible for all the thing that was happening in his life. Ethlyn¡¯s plea for not to choose her when he was forced to was making him feel miserable. Earlier, he wanted to stay beside his mate; now, he wanted to stay beside Ethlyn. He didn¡¯t go near his mate just like Ethlyn wanted; he just couldn¡¯t. But he realized that he would do the same with her, i. e., he would physically present near her and mentally near Ethlyn. He could sense that Ethlyn was in pain, but could he go near her and console her? Nope. Because he was the reason behind her pain. So, he stayed at Lemieux¡¯s ce, drowning himself in the liquor. It was something that he never did, but never did he feel this miserable in his life. He was giving himself and Keanu time to think about everything. Observing this situation, he wanted to choose Ethlyn, but at the same time, he didn¡¯t want to spend the rest of his life questioning whether he made the right choice or not. Calvin knew that Ethlyn didn¡¯t want to be treated in that way. She deserved someone who would be crazy for her. AND ONLY HER. At this moment, he didn¡¯t want anyone else to go anywhere around her. ¡®Damn it; I¡¯m being such a dick here.¡¯ He didn¡¯t count how much time passed by thinking all this. He raised his head when he sensed Colton over there. ¡°Seriously? Are you nning to damage your kidney or liver?¡± he asked, not really impressed with the condition in which his brother was. ¡°I¡¯m not going to drink on a regr basis. And why the hell would I do anything like that? It¡¯s not that my situation is like dad, where the love of his was assumed dead.¡± Calvin scoffed, ring at him. His anger toward his brother hadn¡¯t settled from the previous argument, but because of Sophia, he didn¡¯t get a chance to settle the score. ¡°I thought I asked you to go near Ethlyn.¡± ¡°It¡¯s my life. I will do whatever I want, and guess what? Your concern is no more required. So, please stop it.¡± Calvin growled at him. He was already pissed at himself and everything that was happening in his life. On the top, Colton¡¯s reminder of going near Ethlyn reminded him how he was asked to leave the room. ¡°It¡¯s not you, but the alcohol you have consumed is talking.¡± Colton pointed out. ¡°Anyway, I¡¯m here to tell you that shift that woman out of the pack in the human world because she is not our mate.¡± ¡°Oh really? And how is that a hunter figured that now?¡± Calvin grinned. ¡°Because as far as I know, humans don¡¯t have that power to sense whether the person in front of them is their mate or not. So, tell me, Colton Ethan Haysbert, how can you say that?¡± Calvin questioned again, leaving his seat and trying to stand on his feet, but he was having a hard time standing on his feet. Colton knew he was mocking him, but he ignored it, knowing that he wasn¡¯t in his sense. ¡°That¡¯s because I didn¡¯t feel anything for her. NOTHING. TOTALLY BLANK. And mate bond doesn¡¯t work in that way. I should have felt something, but I didn¡¯t. I can say that it¡¯s a trap, Calvin.¡± Calvin chuckled and walked toward him in a baby step, ¡°Do you know why didn¡¯t you feel anything toward her?¡± he asked and ced his hand on Colton¡¯s shoulder for support. ¡°That¡¯s because you¡¯re bing a heartless person with each passing day. That¡¯s because you¡¯re a monster in human form, and that day is not far when you will be a monster for real.¡± ¡°You often snap and are ready to hurt anyone who cares or loves you. What do you think you¡¯re?¡± Calvin slurred. ¡°Hmm? A wall that always protected our other siblings or me after dad. But that¡¯s wrong¡­. that¡¯s so wrong, Colton Haysbert. The truth is that we need protection from YOU.¡± he said, poking his index finger in Colton¡¯s chest. ¡°My mate is not going anywhere from here.¡± Calvin dered his decision. ¡°It¡¯s not my problem that you didn¡¯t feel anything. Because I know what did I feel. And I know she is my mate, and I¡¯m not going to leave her just because you said something to me. Artemis went against everyone, including his parents, for Caro. And I would do the same if required.¡± ¡°You will regret taking this decision, Calvin,¡± Colton spoke and removed Calvin¡¯s grip from his shoulder. ¡°But I guess it¡¯s high time that you will learn your lesson on your own.¡± Saying this, he left Calvin¡¯s hand and moved away. . #TBC 118 All of a sudden, Calvin fell on the floor because of his drunken state. Colton recalled how Calvin used to fall on the ground as a kid; he always used to be there to help him in standing up again. But he couldn¡¯t do that all his life, could he? ¡°Damn it! This alcohol.¡± Calvin cursed. ¡°Help me,¡± he said, raising his hand toward Colton. ¡°Help yourself,¡± Colton said emotionlessly and turned his heels to leave from there. That was when he realized that there was a third person in the room as well. Ethlyn. She was looking at him in concern. Colton ignored her presence and started leaving from there. ¡°Whatever Alpha Calvin said was not true.¡± She spoke. Colton¡¯s step halted in the middle, but he didn¡¯t turn toward her. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I didn¡¯t mean to listen to the conversation.¡± She muttered. ¡°I just want to tell you that you are neither a heathless person nor a monster,¡± Ethlyn spoke. She didn¡¯t know much about Colton, but she had heard a lot about him, and all she realized was that he loved everyone and was someone who didn¡¯t know how to express his love for others. ¡°I know you might be thinking that I¡¯m saying so just to make you feel good, but I¡¯m just saying what I have heard from Rose about you.¡± Colton looked past his shoulder and spoke, ¡°You speak a lot just like him,¡± he sneered before adding, ¡°Hope you will use your mind if you have heard the whole conversation, unlike him.¡± With this, he left from there without looking back even for once. Ethlyn turned her head toward Calvin and saw him sleeping on the floor where he fell. * Ethlyn tried to sleep, but she couldn¡¯t because her mind kept imagining the image of Calvin with some woman whose face wasn¡¯t clear to her. She cursed mentally when she realized that she couldn¡¯t sleep peacefully. She wondered about the condition of Calvin¡¯s mate. ¡®Would she be fine now? Is she awake by now? Did Alpha Calvin tell her about Rose and me? Moon Goddes, how will she take that news?¡¯ She kept thinking whatever she could. She thought to check on them at least once. ¡®There can also be a chance that Alpha Calvin wouldn¡¯t be there?¡¯ Cinder asked hopefully. ¡®Keep your heart strong, Cinder.¡¯ Ethlyn responded and looked at the nightwear that Calvin had got for her. ¡®It¡¯s not that revealing. I can wear it outside.¡¯ She thought before picking herself off the bed. She left the room first and then the penthouse. The guards outside the penthouse bowed their heads in front of her, and she gave a tiny smile in return. Instead of looking for Calvin direct to the hospital, she asked the guards about him. ¡°Can you mind link any of the guards in the hospital and let me know where Alpha is there or not?¡± She asked. His eyes widened before asking, ¡°Can¡¯t you mind link the Alpha on your own?¡± She shook her head before replying, ¡°Not yet. But after Luna Ceremony for sure.¡± ¡°Oh.¡± He nodded his head and mind-linked the other guards of the pack. After a minute, he spoke, ¡°Alpha left the pack hospital five minutes before. He went toward Lemieux¡¯s ce.¡± Ethlyn smiled. ¡°Thank you so much.¡± ¡®So, he was with her. I shouldn¡¯t be feeling bad, right? I was the one who asked him to leave because he didn¡¯t want to stay by my side willingly.¡¯ Still, a tiny part of her expected him to stay. To fight with her by saying that he wouldn¡¯t leave. After all, it was his room, not hers. But he did none of the things that she expected deep down. Ethlyn wasn¡¯t sure whether she should go to Lemieux¡¯s ce or not. ¡®I should and ask him to return back to the penthouse. Yes, that will be a better excuse to check on him, and I will apologize to him as well.¡¯ After thinking about all this, she went to Lemieux¡¯s ce. Lemieux was surprised to see her at her in surprise. ¡°Alpha Calvin is here?¡± She asked softly, though she had sensed Calvin¡¯s presence along with the familiar another scent that she had smelt around Calvin twice. ¡°Yes, he is here.¡± Lemieux agreed and stepped away from the door, letting her walk in. ¡°Umm.. mm Is he busy with someone? I don¡¯t want to disturb them.¡± She muttered, not sure that she should go toward the bar area.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°He is with his brother, Colton,¡± Lemieux replied, leaving the decision to Ethlyn whether she wanted to go there or not. ¡®Oh, the same mysterious brother whom I haven¡¯t met.¡¯ Ethlyn thought and followed Calvin¡¯s scent to see his brother for the first time. ¡°¡­ didn¡¯t feel anything for her. NOTHING. TOTALLY BLANK. And mate bond doesn¡¯t work in that way. I should have felt something, but I didn¡¯t. I can say that it¡¯s a trap, Calvin.¡± She heard Calvin¡¯s voice, but why would he speak his name on his name? ¡®Maybe their voice is almost the same.¡¯ She concluded. ¡°Do you know why didn¡¯t you feel anything toward her? That¡¯s because you¡¯re bing a heartless person with each passing day. That¡¯s because you¡¯re a monster in human form, and that day is not far from when you will be a monster for real. You often snap and are ready to hurt anyone who cares or loves you. What do you think you¡¯re? Hmm? A wall that always protected our other siblings or me after dad. But that¡¯s wrong¡­. that¡¯s so wrong, Colton Haysbert. The truth is that we need protection from YOU.¡± She felt bad for Colton the way Calvin talked with him. She watched them talking, and she observed Colton from behind. . #TBC 119 He looked like Brandon and Calvin from the back. Not just that, Calvin dered how he didn¡¯t want his mate to go anywhere. She didn¡¯t know whether Calvin was speaking the truth after drinking so much or was lying. She felt bad when Colton didn¡¯t help him in standing, but at the same time, she understood that Calvin had hurt his brother a lot. Never did Reva speak to talk with her in that way, so she didn¡¯t know the pain that Colton would have felt, but she definitely knew how it felt when someone close to our heart talked to us in this tone. The moment Colton turned his face toward her to leave, she was shocked by looking his face. ¡®Holyshit! He is¡­. He is the carbon copy of Alpha Calvin.¡¯ She screamed in her mind, and immediately her cheek flushed, recalling how she assumed him, Alpha Calvin, twice. ¡®That¡¯s why he was rude to her when he was about to touch him and was ignoring her throughout the party.¡¯ Now she could understand the difference between both brothers clearly when she thought that they were two, not one. And among them, one was human, and the other was a werewolf. She could read Calvin¡¯s expression, but Colton was unreadable.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. ¡®But how does this human have vampire blood in stock?¡¯ Cinder asked. Sheposed herself quickly when Colton walked past her and started leaving. She just couldn¡¯t let him go just like that. She couldn¡¯t sense his feeling, but she knew he was hurt. She tried to talk with him and received a bitter response from Colton in return. Ethlyn didn¡¯t mind him, and at the same time, hisst sentence didn¡¯t go unnoticed by her. ¡®Does this also mean that we aren¡¯t going anywhere, but that fake mate is?¡¯ Cinder asked in excitement. ¡®Not sure, Cinder. But everyone in the house thinks that Colton¡¯s sixth sense is too good. So, we just can¡¯t let this topic go that easily.¡¯ Ethlyn went toward Calvin, who was sleeping on the floor. ¡°If this is a trap, Alpha Calvin, then I promise to have your back just like you had mine all the time.¡± She spoke, looking at him. Not sure if he was listening to her or not. She leaned toward Calvin and picked him in her arms with Cinder¡¯s power. ¡°Umm.. urgh,¡± Calvin groaned in her arms while she smiled, taking him out of that ce. ¡°Luna, let me help you.¡± Lemieux quickly came by her side to help her. ¡°No. It¡¯s fine.¡± Cinder replied. ¡°Thank you, Lemi.¡± * After a moment, Ethlynid Calvin on the bed and removed his footwear. She thought to remove the t-shirt that he was wearing because it was slightly wet because of alcohol and was sticking as well. The moment she started lifting his t-shirt, Calvin pushed her hand away. ¡°I¡¯mmitted¡­ for now.¡± He said in a sleepy tone. Ethlyn smiled and tried to open his t-shirt again, but this time, Calvin not just pushed her hand away; his eyes were also opened a little. ¡°Ethlyn¡­ oh! It¡¯s¡­ It¡¯s you?¡± ¡°Yeah! May I?¡± She asked, and this time, Calvin let her touch him. Calvin fell asleep in the next minute again, and Ethlyny on the other side of the bed, already knowing what she had to do early in the morning. ¡®You might hate me tomorrow, Alpha. But deep down, I really hope that you will trust me.¡¯ Ethlyn thought, caressing his face. Early in the morning, Ethlyn felt someone¡¯s hand around her waist. The little tingle all over her body made her realize who the person was touching her in her sleep. The next, she felt wet kisses around her neck. A low moan escaped her lips. ¡°I want you, Ethlyn. Just don¡¯t say NO.¡± Calvin pleaded in a husky voice. ¡°I won¡¯t say NO.¡± She mumbled. A few hourster, Ethlyn woke up and checked the time. She looked around and saw Calvin sleeping beside her. She carefully removed his hand around his waist and left the bed silently, grabbing her clothes. She freshened up as soon as possible and ran out of the room. ¡°Good Morning, Aunt.¡± She greeted Sophia when she saw her in the kitchen. ¡°Good Morning, Ethlyn. Wake up early today? I mean, it¡¯s Sunday. I hope everything is fine.¡± Sophia said, preparing coffee for both Brandon and her. ¡°Yeah!! Yeah!! Everything is fine. I just needed to talk with Caroline.¡± Saying this, she walked toward Caroline¡¯s room and knocked on the door. It took a while until, finally, the door of the room opened. She was not surprised when the room smelled of sex and sweat, observing the time they took to open the door. ¡°Ethlyn?¡± Caroline furrowed her eyes. ¡°I need your help, and it¡¯s urgent.¡± Caroline understood that tone and also the fact that it had anything to do with the things that she sensed yesterday. She stepped aside and let Ethlyn walk inside the room. * ¡®Alpha, she is awake.¡¯ Damian mind linked to Calvin when he grabbed the seat on the couch just after bidding everyone goodbye. This morning, he spent time with his family members and kept calling Colton to apologize for thest night but got no response from the other side. He knew he fucked up a big time. He said hurtful words to his brother just because he was trying to be protective, just like always. Calvin agreed that sometimes Colton¡¯s extra protective nature did piss him off because it forbade him from trying things on his own and experiencing things through his point of view. Still, that didn¡¯t give him the right to say those things to Colton. ¡®I will be there in a few seconds.¡¯ Calvin replied and started leaving from there as soon as possible. ¡°Calvin¡± He heard his name being called and turned around to see Roselet frowning. ¡°Where are you going in such a hurry? And you didn¡¯t even tell us about it.¡± She pointed out, signaling at both Ethlyn and her. . #TBC 120 Ethlyn. Since morning everything was fine between them. If pure silence could be counted as FINE, then. ¡°Umm¡­yeah!!¡± Calvin responded and realized that he hadn¡¯t talked about his mate with Roselet. He mind-linked Damian informing him that he would be slightlyte in arriving and reached Roselet. ¡°I.. I¡¯m sorry to both of you.¡± he apologized. ¡°I was going to the pack hospital?¡± ¡°What? Why? Is everything alright?¡± Roselet asked in concern. ¡°Let¡¯s talk about it on the way to the hospital.¡± He offered, carrying her in his arms, and looked at Ethlyn, who gave him a small smile in return. Observing this, he smiled back at her. ¡®Right now, you¡¯re smiling at me, but after knowing what I have done, you will be ring at me.¡¯ She thought. Calvin took Roselet from there and calmly exined everything about his fated mate and about her condition. He also told her that both his father and mother had decided to give an honest try for this rtionship and would see whether it worked or not. Roselet heard his father without disturbing him in between. ¡°Are you upset with the arrival of my mate in our life?¡± Calvin asked her when she didn¡¯t speak anything after hearing everything that Calvin had to say. ¡°No¡± She shook her head. ¡°I know what I wanted before mommy¡¯s arrival in our life.¡± She paused before speaking. ¡°Your happiness.¡± Calvin fell in love with his daughter again and gave a long kiss on her cheek, But it also reminded him that both father and daughter had always kept each other¡¯s happiness first in their life. ¡®Let¡¯s reject our mate, Calvin.¡¯ Keanu said, cing a stone on his life. For a while, he had be selfish, but now he couldn¡¯t. Being a five years old girl, Roselet wanted her father¡¯s happiness first even though she wished to see her parents together. Then why couldn¡¯t he do the same for her? What if, by choosing his mate, he would end up bringing a cruel mother for his daughter? He was thinking all this when his eyesnded on the decoration of the lobelia flower in the hospital. His jaws clenched when he saw that. Lobelia flowers were used to stop the witch from concentrating so that she wouldn¡¯t be able to cast any spell. ¡°Wow, blue flowers.¡± Roselet chirped. ¡°What is the name of this flower, Calvin? I haven¡¯t seen this type of flower before.¡± ¡°That¡¯s because it is not easily found here. This is Lobelia. It is used as a prevention from witches¡¯ spells.¡± ¡°Ooo!!¡±ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°Hey!!¡± Calvin said, looking at his mate and putting Roselet down on her own feet, who ran toward Calvin¡¯s mate while Calvin followed her. ¡°Hii, how are you feeling?¡± Roselet asked, reaching beside his mate. ¡°Aww!! You¡¯re so cute. I¡¯m feeling good. Thank you for asking.¡± She spoke, caressing Roselet¡¯s cheek. ¡°What¡¯s your name?¡± ¡°I¡¯m Rose, and you¡¯re?¡± ¡°I¡¯m Chloe Wallis.¡± ¡°I¡¯ve seen you somewhere, Chloe, because you seem familiar.¡± Roselet pointed out. ¡°I¡¯m not able to remember when and where did I see you before.¡± ¡°Really? Let me know about it, too, because I don¡¯t think I have met you before.¡± Chloe replied with a smile. ¡°Rose, go and greet the pack doctor and check on the pack members in the hospital. Congratte those who are happy and support those who are sad, okay?¡± Calvin said, caressing her hair. ¡°Sure, Calvin.¡± Saying this, Roselet ran out of the room. ¡°She is such an amazing kid,¡± Chloe said, to which Calvin nodded his head. ¡°I know. She is a sweetheart.¡± ¡°Thank you for saving my life, Alpha Calvin,¡± Chloe said, bowing her head in front of him. ¡°It¡¯s¡­ it¡¯s fine.¡± Calvin stopped her. ¡°I wasn¡¯t sure where I was until I heard a couple of wolves howl around this ce, so that¡¯s how I figured out that I¡¯m in the pack,¡± Chloe spoke. ¡°To be honest, I thought that I was with those merciless hunters who shot me when I saw these flowers in my room, but then I mentally pped myself for thinking in that way when I realized that hunters have dozen of reasons to torture witches like me instead of using this flower.¡± She added with a sad smile. Calvin¡¯s fist clenched, and he wanted to kick the person who was behind this decoration. ¡®Who could have done this without taking his permission? Or Who could have ordered to do this?¡¯ He thought. Ethlyn!! His mind replied to him on his own because he had observed her talking with Zordan a couple of times, but he didn¡¯t care to check what they were talking about; after all, Ethlyn was Zordan¡¯s sister-inw except Luna. ¡°I apologize for this. But¡­ I hope you will understand that a witch in a pack is dangerous. So, precaution is better than cure, you know.¡± Calvin replied, not going against Ethlyn¡¯s decision. At the same time, he didn¡¯t want to me her in front of someone else but deep down, he was fuming in anger. ¡°I think you should rest. I will talk to youter about this whole incident. Bye, take care.¡± He said, not waiting near her even for a second more, and dashed out of her room to demand an exnation about this. Once he was out, Chloe mmed her hand on the bed in anger and grabbed the half-broken phone that was on the table near her. She looked toward the door, which was closed, and then dialed someone¡¯s number. ¡°Our n is not going in the way we wanted,¡± Chloe spoke. ¡°What? Howe? He should have marked you by now to keep you alive.¡± ¡°Sorry to burst your bullshit bubble, but nothing happened liked that.¡± Chloe hissed. . #TBC 121 ¡°How the hell is that possible? Hunters shot you in such a way there was no way you could stay alive until he marked you?¡± The person on the other side cried in frustration. ¡°He should have marked you by assuming you as his mate, and by the time he would have realized that he was trapped, it would have been toote because you would have been the Luna of the pack, and he would have been dead.¡± ¡°Well, He figured out another way to keep me alive. And now that I¡¯m alive and not marked by him. I¡¯m scared that sooner orter, he will find the truth, and then I will be dead for sure.¡± Chloe pointed out. ¡°And the worst part is that instead of jumping in front of me like a love-sick puppy that werewolves like him are, he decorated the whole room and maybe the hospital with the Lobelia flower. I can¡¯t even use my power in this way. I don¡¯t think I can break the protective shield of the pack that his witch sister has formed around the pack.¡± ¡°You¡¯re not there to say that ¡®I don¡¯t think I can break the protection shield.¡¯ You have to do that at any cost. Use your mind and get this work done. By then, hunters are preparing to attack the pack.¡± ¡°Okay, Elena.¡± With this, Chloe disconnected the call and recalled how Elena and hunters were working together to get a hand on Ethlyn and, of course, the Alpha of the pack that would be the bonus. The moment Chloe looked around after disconnecting the call, her eyes widened because Roselet was looking at her. * ¡°I was busy with my family, so I¡¯m sure you were aware of what was going on behind my back. Still, you didn¡¯t care to inform me about it,¡± Calvin growled in anger, looking at Zordan. ¡°I didn¡¯t inform you about it because I didn¡¯t think that Ethlyn was doing anything wrong as a Luna of the pack,¡± Zordan replied, to which Calvin red at him. ¡°Precaution is better than cure, right?¡± ¡°But that¡¯s her insult. She is feeling like a prisoner, and I didn¡¯t want to make her feel that way.¡± Calvin responded. ¡°But I guess I¡¯m talking to the wrong person about it. And if you think that it is done because of precaution, then you¡¯re so wrong. This is done because of jealousy that one woman can¡¯t handle because of the presence of a second woman.¡± ¡°Calvin, I think you¡¯re getting¡­.¡± Calvin didn¡¯t wait to hear what he had to say because he was damn too mad at Ethlyn. On the other side, Ethlyn was waiting for Calvin to walk into the penthouse and st like a bomb. But she wasn¡¯t scared of his anger. When she went into Caroline¡¯s room earlier in the room and shared the conversation with both the brothers with her, Ethlyn felt Caroline was really knowledgeable among the siblings. She couldn¡¯t have talked with Brandon as well, but then she didn¡¯t want t mention in front of them that both brothers foughtst night. So, she chose Caroline in the end. From where she learned if this was really a trap, just like Colton had mentioned, then it was a high chance that the woman Calvin brought into the pack could be a witch. That was a different thing that Caroline confirmed the same after visiting Chloe in her room.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . Caroline exined each and every weakness of a witch in detail. ¡®Alpha Calvin mentioned that your mate went against everyone, including his parents, for you. After all, you know, you¡¯re a witch.¡¯ Ethlyn mentioned the conversation between Calvin and Colton. ¡®That¡¯s true. He was really supportive from the beginning. It wasn¡¯t that his parents or his pack members were evil or bad. They were just scared of what I was and what I was capable of doing. So, almost the whole pack was decorated with lobelia flowers so that I wouldn¡¯t be able to use my powers.¡¯ Caroline told her and narrated everything that happened. ¡®The best thing was Artemis¡¯s support. But with time, pack members realized that I¡¯m not evil, so everyone apologized by throwing a party for me.¡¯ ¡®There is nothing wrong in making mistakes or understanding a person. A lot of these incidents keep happening in our day-to-day life but what matters is that you should have the guts to apologize when you realize that you¡¯re wrong.¡¯ Considering thest sentence, Ethlyn took all the precautions that she needed and had expected the same reaction from Artemis, pissed. ¡°Ethlyn¡± ¡®There you go.¡¯ Ethlyn thought when she saw Calvin walking into the penthouse with an angry expression. She was already prepared for this. ¡°What the hell is the stunt that you yed behind my back?¡± Calvin growled at her. ¡°I made you the Luna so that no one who say a word or do anything against you, but you started showing your true color just after a few days. I can¡¯t believe you.¡± Ethlyn rolled her eyes, ignoring his words. ¡°Did you just roll your eyes?¡± He growled and grabbed her chin tightly, making her look into his eyes. ¡°I won¡¯t tolerate you disrespecting me, Ethlyn. So, it would be better if you will behave.¡± ¡°By doing all this, you proved that you¡¯re your mother¡¯s daughter. No different from her. What upset me more was that I really thought that you¡¯re different.¡± Ethlyn didn¡¯t say anything about that but did observe how Calvin rted her with her mother¡¯s character. It made her heartache. Getting mad at her was another thing, but saying mean and insulting things were another. What was the need for this ¡®honest try¡¯ thing when he didn¡¯t respect her and could say anything in anger? ¡°Order Zordan to clean the mess that he has created, but I really don¡¯t want to go against your orders and make you feel any less than me,¡± Calvin ordered, leaving her chin. ¡°I won¡¯t do that because I didn¡¯t do anything wrong by doing this,¡± Ethlyn said in determination. ¡°As a Luna of the pack, I¡¯m concerned about the pack and¡­¡± . #TBC 122 ¡°Dare you use the pack¡¯s name under your personal intention? You weren¡¯t happy with Chloe¡¯s arrival from the moment I told you about her, and it was written all over your face at that time. You¡¯re doing this to torture her, don¡¯t you?¡± ¡°I won¡¯t stoop that low. I can never think of hurting anyone. You know that, right?¡± ¡°I doubt I do. And maybe I was wrong to think that we should think to give ¡®US¡¯ a try because you definitely don¡¯t deserve it. I wonder how your father handled that toxic woman for around twenty-five years, but I won¡¯t make a mistake of doing it for that long.¡± Cinder whimpered in fear, thinking about the meaning behind Calvin¡¯s words while Ethlyn held a poker face. ¡°Then go ahead. Reject me.¡± She spoke, and her own voice started acting like acid on her tongue. ¡°You were right about the part that you were wrong to think that we should think to give ¡®US¡¯ a try because it¡¯s not me, but it¡¯s you who doesn¡¯t deserve me.¡± She said, ring at him in anger. ¡°Don¡¯t try to me me now. This all is happening because of your stupid stunt. The topic of rejection started because you pissed me off to the extent that¡­ ¡°¡­ that you couldn¡¯t see the damage you did with your words?¡± Ethlyn questioned. ¡°Every couple has disagreements between them, but they don¡¯t n to reject each other just after the first fight. I know everything is new for you, but that doesn¡¯t mean that you haven¡¯t stayed with your family and haven¡¯t countered this situation ever in your life.¡± ¡°And most importantly, you just can¡¯t treat me like a queen in front of the whole world and treat me like a door mate when we are alone.¡± She growled at him in anger. ¡°This¡­ this rejection is not in my hand because I haven¡¯t marked you yet, but leaving you is definitely in my control, and I won¡¯t mind LEAVING you forever.¡± ¡°Ahh,¡± Ethlyn cried in pain when Calvin grabbed hold of her hair and brought her inches away from his face so that Ethlyn could stare right into his eyes. Ethlyn was taken aback, observing the pain in his eyes about the thought of her leaving him. ¡°As if I will let you go.¡± He whispered against her eyes, and her body trembled in response. ¡°Learn to deal with my attitude because you¡¯ve got to handle it your whole life.¡± Ethlyn couldn¡¯t understand whether she should be mad at him at that moment and observed his sentence where he mentioned, ¡®your whole life.¡¯Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. She furrowed her eyebrow before asking, ¡°My whole life? What does that mean? Am I dying soon?¡± ¡°What? No!!¡± Calvin looked at her in shock and was surprised at her killing his mood. He was going to confess that he finally decided that he would choose his princess¡¯s happiness over his. He was going to confess that he had decided to choose her over Chloe. He opened his mouth to exin when Lemieux mind linked him, ¡®Alpha, Rose is missing.¡¯ * A moment before!! Chloe¡¯s eyes widened when she found Roselet looking at her, but then she sighed in relief when Roselet opened the door and walked inside. ¡®Thank god she didn¡¯t hear anything.¡¯ Chloe thought and ced a small smile on her lips. ¡°Hey, beautiful,¡± Chloe spoke with a smile. ¡°Hii again,¡± Roselet responded with a smile. ¡°I told you earlier that I have seen you somewhere, remember?¡± ¡°Of course I did. I told you to let me know if you will remember where you saw me.¡± Chloe responded nonchntly. ¡°That¡¯s why I¡¯m here. To tell you, where did I see you?¡± Roselet said in excitement as if she had solved the puzzle. ¡°I have seen you in CCTV footage of the mating ball.¡± The moment Roselet said this, the color of Chloe¡¯s face faded. ¡°I had watched that video multiple times, so I remember that you identally hit mommy when she was drinking something, and she even talked with you because I saw her turning in your direction.¡± Roselet said, finally solving the mystery but little did she know she had unknowingly pulled the ground floor under Chloe¡¯s feet.¡± It was indeed Chloe who had drugged Ethlyn and had control of her mind, making her walk into Calvin¡¯s room, leaving her own when she was in heat. But she hadn¡¯t thought a girl of barely five years would catch her. That, too, this soon. ¡°You have attended that mating ball, don¡¯t you?¡± Roselet asked to confirm whether she was right or not. ¡°I mean, around five years back?¡± ¡°No, beautiful. I didn¡¯t attend any mating ball back then. If I would have attended that ball, then your daddy and I would have been together. You¡¯re mistaken about some other woman like me. There are seven people of the same face, you know.¡± Chloe lied smoothly because she knew that Roselet could smell lies at this age. ¡°Really?¡± Roselet asked in surprise. ¡°Yes, dear. It¡¯s true. You can confirm with your father about the same.¡± Chloe offered and sighed in relief when she realized that Roselet had almost believed her. ¡°Okay, I¡¯m going to ask daddy about the same and will ask him whether the girl from the video is really you or not!! It will be fun to see whether he will able to guess the right answer or not.¡± Roselet said in excitement and turned her heels to leave from there. ¡°Wait, beautiful!!¡± Chloe quickly stopped her before that little pup would end up revealing her identity. She knew that she had to do something before her game would be ruined, ¡°I told you that woman is not me.¡± Roselet smiled before replying, ¡°I do not doubt you, but my uncle says that you shouldn¡¯t trust anyone blindly.¡± ¡°He has given you indeed a good lesson, beautiful,¡± Chloe said with a smirk, and now she knew where she had to attack. . #TBC 123 ¡°Now, I really wish that woman would have been me. In that way, I would have a daughter of your age. Of course, that would have cost your absence from everyone¡¯s life.¡± ¡°What do you mean?¡± Roselet asked curiously. ¡°Nothing. It¡¯s a big people stuff; you won¡¯t understand.¡± ¡°I will. Calvin says that I¡¯m the most understanding daughter in the whole world. So, speak up. What do you mean by that?¡± She demanded. ¡°Okay, if you insist. What I meant is that your daddy and your mommy shared a room together in their drunken state, and you¡¯re the result of that mistake that neither of them wanted tomit in their conscious mind.¡± ¡°But¡­ daddy told me that I¡¯m a gift from Moon Goddess.¡± Roselet¡¯s voice broke, and she was ready to cry. ¡°I¡¯m sorry to break this to you, Rose. But just because you asked me the truth, I have to say this that you¡¯re a mistake, neither a gift nor a pup made out of love. That¡¯s the reason your other grandparents got rid of you just after you were born and left you outside the pack in a box.¡± ¡°And Alpha Calvin had to keep you with him against his wish because his parents forced him to raise you; otherwise, you¡¯re an unwanted pup in both your parents¡¯ life.¡± ¡°You¡­ you¡¯re lying,¡± Roselet said, wiping her tears. There was no way she was unwanted. Her daddy never let her feel that way, or she felt to understand his feelings for her. Was she really a mistake? ¡°I don¡¯t have any reason to. Moreover, these are the things that your daddy told me on his own. He told me how he had to sacrifice his happiness, his mate, because of you and for a long how he had to suffer for the mistake that he hadmitted back then.¡± ¡°But I¡­ I never asked him to¡­ sacrifice his¡­ his happiness for me.¡± Roselet cried. Not able to handle all these things. ¡°I¡­ always¡­ wan.. wanted his happiness.¡± ¡°But he will always have to unwillingly because of you; otherwise, your grandparents will cut their ties with your father. If you really love and want your father¡¯s happiness, then I will suggest you leave.¡± ¡°Le.. leave?¡± Roselet huped. ¡°Yes. Because you¡¯re the reason behind all the tension and stress in your father¡¯s life, imagine how amazing his life would be without you. He doesn¡¯t have to work three shifts. In the human world, then in the pack, and then around you.¡± Hearing this, Roselet recalled how tired his father used to get by the end of the night that he most of the time used to sleep on her bed while telling her bedtime story. ¡°Neither he has to spend life with your mother, whom he doesn¡¯t like. Just like he and his wolf wants to stay with his mate.¡± ¡°Alpha Calvin is suffering because of you. If I would have been you, then I would have left my father for his happiness. You can do that same if you really love him.¡± Chloe leaned toward Roselet and looked into her eyes, trying to control her mind, which was damn too difficult because of the flowers. ¡°You have run away from here.¡± She ordered her. Roselet nodded her head and ran out of the room. ¡®Problem solved.¡¯ She thought mentally and really hoped that Roselet would be able to leave the pack even in the presence of this tight security because her spell wasn¡¯t that strong, and Roselet would be out of it anytime. ¡®Even I should leave because my truth will be out in any minute if that little pup would end up opening her mouth in case she couldn¡¯t run away. Or what if Ethlyn recognizes me?¡¯ Chloe thought and started leaving the bed. She grabbed her belongings and really hoped in her mind that her n would work. At the same time, Lemieux walked inside, looking for Roselet. Calvin mind linked him to get her after he had reached the elevator in anger, telling him that Roselet was still in the pack hospital. ¡°Is Rose here?¡± ¡°No. She ran away just a minute before.¡± Chloe replied and watched him leave. ¡®No one can save me if anyone from the pack will get a hand on that pup.¡¯ She gulped her saliva in tension and left the room in which she was and looked around to leave.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. Before she would have walked out of the hospital, she heard a loud roaring howl of a wolf; a shiver ran down her spine when she realized that it was an Alpha¡¯s howl. ¡®Does that pup sessfully sneak out of the pack?¡¯ She thought, and a smile appeared on her lips. She quickly dialed the number of the hunter¡¯s leader. ¡°Hello, It¡¯s me, Chloe. The princess of the pack is somewhere in yournd. Alert all your hunters. Once you will get her, the killer of your son and the Alpha will be begging in front of you.¡± ¡°In which direction she ran from the pack?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know. You might have to search in all three directions of the pack.¡± Chloe said before disconnecting the call. After disconnecting the call, she looked around and found all the pack members in the hospital ring at her. ¡®Holy shit! I was talking to the hunter in the corridor.¡¯ She realized her mistake that she ended up doing in excitement. In the next second, she received a punch in her punch. ¡°Aahhh!!¡± She fell on the floor and looked up at the person who had attacked her. . #TBC . A/N: Thank you for reading ?? Please do vote and drop a review on the story. 124 ¡®What the hell do you mean by Rose is missing from her own pack?¡¯ Calvin growled when he heard this. ¡®Find her.¡¯ He disconnected the mind link and then mind-linked all the pack members. ¡®Lemi is not able to find Rose. Anyone who knows anything about her mind link me back.¡¯ Saying this, he disconnected the mind link. ¡°What happened? Why do you look so tense?¡± Ethlyn asked when she observed him. But Calvin didn¡¯t answer her and started leaving the penthouse, and Ethlyn followed him. ¡®Alpha, I saw her leaving the hospital a few minutes before.¡¯ ¡®Alpha, She was crying when she left the hospital.¡¯ ¡®Alpha, She went into your office.¡¯ ¡®She hadn¡¯t left your office since then.¡¯ ¡®Your office is locked from the inside. Only you can open it now.¡¯ These were the answers that Calvin received. ¡°Alpha, what happened? Why do you look so worried?¡± She asked again because Calvin¡¯s expression was telling her that something was not right. But It wasn¡¯t definitely some attack on the pack; otherwise, Cinder could have heard the noise. ¡°It¡¯s Rose. But don¡¯t worry, it¡¯s nothing serious.¡± Calvin replied, but his face didn¡¯t say it that way. He was worried sick for Roselet. The fact that Roselet was crying when she walked out of the hospital was something that he wasn¡¯t able to digest. What and who could have made her cry? He would KILL that person for sure. Anything that he hated the most was seeing tears in her beautiful blue eyes. ¡°What, Rose, Alpha? Tell me everything that you know. I have the right to know everything about my daughter.¡± Ethlyn demanded. Even her heart raced when she came to know that something had involved her daughter. Calvin told her everything that he came to know and walked out of the elevator, rushing toward his office, not bothering to check whether Ethlyn was following him or not. At the same time, Ethlyn dashed toward the hospital to know whether what she was thing was right. She swore she wouldn¡¯t leave that witch if she were behind Roselet¡¯s tears. Calvin opened his office and couldn¡¯t spot Roselet inside it. He sniffed, and it led him to the emergency and secret exit of the pack. ¡®Fuck!¡¯ He cursed mentally when he realized what had happened? He howled loudly, signaling every warrior to gather outside the pack house. He really couldn¡¯t understand why Roselet would have taken this step. But at that time, he couldn¡¯t waste his time solving that puzzle. The emergency exit led to the city if anyone would follow the right path. In terms of any wrong move, one could end up reaching the ground owned by no one. Both hunters and rouge could be there. And they both were a big red sign for Roselet. **** On the other side, ¡®The princess of the pack is somewhere in yournd. Alert all your hunters. Once you will get her, the killer of your son and the Alpha will be begging in front of you.¡¯ ¡®In which direction she ran from the pack?¡¯ ¡®I don¡¯t know. You might have to search in all three directions of the pack.¡¯ Ethlyn¡¯s blood boiled when she heard this a little far from the entrance of the hospital. She didn¡¯t know the voice of that woman or had seen her face, but her guts felt that this could be none other than that witch. And there she was!! Looking at everyone with wide eyes!! Ethlyn reached near her and used all her strength to punch Chloe¡¯s face. Cinder sighed in satisfaction when Chloe fell on the floor, and two of her teeth came out of her mouth. Chloe looked up to see who punched her and saw her death. Ethlyn grabbed her hair mercilessly and started hitting her face non-stop. A part of her felt that she had seen her somewhere, but she was so blinded with anger that she was ready to murder that witch. ¡°Calvinnnnn¡­. Aaahhhh¡­. Alpha Calvin¡­¡± Chloe cried in pain, expecting Calvin to save her from this devil because of the fake mate bond; otherwise, Ethlyn wouldn¡¯t rest in peace until Chloe was dead. ¡°What did you say to my daughter because of which she ran away?¡± She asked, growling in anger. ¡°Answer me, damn it,¡± Ethlyn growled at her face, scaring the shit out of her. The fact that Chloe couldn¡¯t use her power was a bonus to Ethlyn. She pulled almost all of Chloe¡¯s hair out of her head and threw her away. Chloe cried in extreme pain, but that wasn¡¯t going to stop Ethlyn. Ethlyn was about to grab Chloe¡¯s neck this time when Calvin grabbed her wrist, stopping her from touching Chloe. ¡°What the hell is this?¡± Keanu asked, jerking her hand away. He reached near Chloe to help her, who was crying bitterly because of the pain. ¡°Seriously? You¡¯re saving her. The one who hurt our daughter.¡± Ethlyn asked, shaking her head in disbelief. ¡°And what on earth you¡¯re doing here? Should you be searching for our daughter?¡± She asked him angrily. ¡°I was about to leave when I came to know about this drama. This is why you wanted me to leave so that you could kill my mat¡­¡± Words died in Calvin¡¯s mouth when he received a tight punch on his jawline, making him fall to the ground. He felt his world took spun around for a while; on the other side, Ethlyn hissed in pain, which she felt on her knuckles after punching Calvin. Calvin was startled to see this behavior of Ethlyn. He didn¡¯t expect that she could punch him publicly because she was always into handling the situation privately rather than creating an issue in front of everyone. ¡°This punch in front of the pack members will always remind you that you chose to prioritize an imposter over our daughter. It¡¯s not always about jealousy or personal issues if your brother or I was trying to show you the truth and learned to believe it. And if you want proof against this witch, then all the werewolves standing here are the proof.¡± ¡°If anything happens to MY daughter because of your unnecessary stay here in the pack, then you¡¯re going to regret it your whole life, Calvin Logan Haysbert,¡± Ethlyn warned him and left there. Calvin didn¡¯t miss how Ethlyn shifted from ¡®OUR¡¯ daughter to ¡®MY¡¯ daughter. He looked up at his pack members, who were giving him a disappointed look. ¡°I don¡¯t know what all the things that she has done, Alpha, but we all listened that she was giving our princess¡¯s detail to the hunters.¡± One of the nurses said. ¡°Earlier, there would have been a chance that hunters could have found her, but now they all are looking for her.¡± She added, reminding Calvin that he was still here, trying to save that woman who was indeed behind everything. ***** Otherside!! Roselet was standing on the point of a silver dagger.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . . #TBC . A/N: Trying to post one more part before sleeping, but the chances are a little low because it is already 1:49 here, and Mumma has warned me not to stay awake like an owl by 4. 125 Calvin was shocked would be an understatement. His head was still trying toprehend this unexpected piece of information, and surprisingly, the moment he came to know about it. All the care and concern that he had for Chloe vanished as if it wasn¡¯t not there in the first ce. Realization hit him like a truck when he realized that everything that he felt was because of that stupid spell that might be this witch had put on him. He recalled how Colton told him that he felt nothing, absolutely nothing, for Chloe, but he just not believed him but also insulted him. He was already feeling bad at the thought that he was rude to his brother. Now the fact that he figured out that Colton was right. He felt worst. Apart from this, he hurt Ethlyn again and again by prioritizing Chloe before her. ¡°Alpha Calvin¡­¡± Chloe whispered, hoping him to still trust her over everyone, thinking that he might be thinking her was his fated mate, right? She was in so much pain that she missed realizing that the spell on Calvin had been broken.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. Keanu¡¯s blood boiled when he heard Chloe¡¯s voice, he wanted to kill her then and there, but he remembered what Ethlyn was asking before he interrupted her. ¡°What did you say to my daughter because of which she ran out crying and even left the pack?¡± He asked, looking at her dangerously. He doubted that it was just her behind everything. If she was with the hunters, then she might be knowing their real identity as well. ¡°Alp..¡± ¡°Answer it,¡± he growled, cutting her in between. ¡°Trust me, I¡¯m worst than Ethlyn when Ie to torture,¡± he added, scaring her. ¡°Answer me the damn question, and I will let you go.¡± ¡°Y.. you will?¡± Chloe asked in disbelief. ¡°Yes, I give you my word that I will let you go. Because all that matters to me is my daughter¡¯s safety.¡± Calvin lied smoothly with a poker face. The fact that the witch was just like a human, Chloe couldn¡¯t sense his lie. ¡°I¡­ I told her¡­ that she.. she is a mistake of one night¡­ st.. stand.¡± Chloe replied in fear. A muscle ticked in his jaw as he felt anger increasing with each passing second. The more Chloe spoke, what else she said to Roselet, the more he felt anger rushing through his veins. Calvin felt like crying when he came to know how Chloe made her feel UNWANTED. Roselet¡¯s heart would have been broken when she would have told her that she wasn¡¯t a gift which her daddy kept telling her for years but was just a mistake. And how Chloe suggested her to leave the pack for her father¡¯s happiness. Anyone who knew Roselet knew that she loved her daddy the most and would do anything for his happiness and the fact that she felt that her departure would make her daddy happy, so she ended up taking such a stupid as well as a naive step. ¡°So, who is the leader of the hunters, and did they send you here?¡± Calvin questioned. ¡°I¡­ I don¡¯t know his name. I just talked with him over the phone. I.. I can give you the phone number, though.¡± Chloe suggested, pulling out her phone from her pocket, but it was totally damaged because of punches and treatment that she received from Ethlyn. SLAPPPPP!! She received a tight p from Calvin before he spoke, ¡°Nice try, but I¡¯m sure you remember his number as well,¡± Calvin knew very well that she might have another alternative to contact those hunters in case her phone would havepletely destroyed in the drama that she had yed yesterday of getting injured to this extent that he ended up bringing her to the pack. The color of Chloe¡¯s face paled. She was thinking of leaving from here smartly, but it looked like it wasn¡¯t going to happen. ¡°Now, tell me the whole truth from beginning to end. If I smell a single lie, then you will be dead in the next moment.¡± Calvin threatened on which Chloe tried to control her crocodile tears. ¡°I want to know everything. EVERY single THING that you know.¡± That was when Chloe started telling him how she was a best friend and also a childhood friend of Elena and what she had done for Elena by nning against Ethlyn from the beginning. She gave Calvin the number of the hunter¡¯s leader, but she really had no idea about who they were; only Elena knew about them. ¡°And where is your best friend? Calvin asked. ¡°I¡­ I can¡¯t tell you about that.¡± Chloe said, shaking her head, ying the role of the best friend for REAL. Calvin pressed his lips tightly but didn¡¯t say anything to her. He turned his head, looking at the pack doctor. ¡°Doctor, treat her injuries and the rest of you all, ¡± he paused, looking at the pack members in the hospital. ¡°Make sure to return her the same pain once she is fine that she had given to the princess of the pack.¡± ¡°Alpha¡­¡± Chloe looked at Calvin in horror. ¡°Doctor, once she returns back to this state, then you will treat her again so that the others pack members can kick her ass again,¡± Calvin ordered, ignoring Chloe. ¡®Make sure that she won¡¯t get a chance to leave the hospital because her powers will start working in that area.¡¯ He mind linked his pack members, running out of the hospital. Then he mind-linked Zordan, whom he had sent behind Roselet along with one-fourth of the pack warriors, to know the status, but sadly they hadn¡¯t found Roselet by then. Now that he knew that hunters would be searching for Roselet as well with all their force, he wasn¡¯t sure that only one-fourth of the warriors was enough. They might end up in a tiny or big war. ¡°Where is your Luna?¡± Calvin asked when he didn¡¯t find Ethlyn in the penthouse; he thought of apologizing to her before he left. However, he knew that just a simple SORRY was nothing for the insulting words that he used for her. ¡°No, Alpha. She never came here.¡± The guard replied. ¡®Does anyone know where Ethlyn is?¡¯ Calvin mind linked everyone instead of searching for her in the whole pack. ¡®Alpha, she too went in search of the princess through the secret exit.¡¯ Calvin wanted to m his head on the wall when he heard this. ¡®She doesn¡¯t even know how to fight. What the hell was she thinking before leaving the pack?¡¯ He fumed in anger at her stupid move. But could he me her? . #TBC 126 ¡®No mother could sit silently after knowing that her daughter could be in danger out there. On the top, the father of her daughter had prioritized other things first.¡¯ Thinking about this, Calvin felt guilty for hurting her. He pulled out his phone and dialed his family member¡¯s numbers one by one. ¡°Hello, Dad!!¡± ¡°Hello, Caro!!¡± ¡°Hello, Colton!!¡± ¡°Hello, Tee¡± ¡°Hello, Lee¡± He didn¡¯t involve Laira in the war because risking her pup for his pup would be stupid, but he asked her to return to his pack for medical help. ***** A moment before!! Roselet was running as fast as she could toward the city. She knew that her Uncle Colton used this way toe into the pack. She ran away from her pack without any thought, but soon she realized that ¡®where the hell will she go?¡¯ Her grandparents had left the pack an hour to meet Uncle Colton first, and then they were nning to leave for Paris. ¡®I should go near Grandpa and Grandma.¡¯ She finalized, and she knew where she could find them. ¡®In her Uncle Artemis¡¯s hotel suite.¡¯ Little did she know that she ended up choosing the wrong way instead of going anywhere near the city. She kept running deep down into the dark forest that was leading her toward the hunter¡¯s area. ¡®Why do I feel that I¡¯m on the wrong path?¡¯ She thought and looked around. She heard the sound of leaves, and immediately she quickly picked up a stick when she found one. She started taking further steps by putting sticks on the ground first. And finally, she found the trap, which was covered with leaves. If her legs would havended there, then she would have been hanging on the tree in the opposite direction.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡®Oh! No. I¡¯m in hunter¡¯snd.¡¯ She thought when she realized when she had observed the same pattern of traps in almost all the trees. She had learned all this in her school. This was a way to identify thend around them, and it was important for all the pups to know because their packs were just attacked the hunter¡¯snd. She had barely turned around to leave from there when a silver dagger was pointed toward her by a boy of her height. ¡°Who are you?¡± He asked angrily, pointing his dagger toward her neck and looking at her from top to bottom. ¡°Definitely not a rouge because they don¡¯t wear fancy and clean clothes. You¡¯re from Blood Moon Pack, aren¡¯t you, mutt?¡± he asked again. Roselet hit his hand with the stick in her hand, making that dagger fall to the ground. She kicked his dagger with her feet away from there. ¡°Ouchh,¡± The boy cried. ¡°My Aunt Tee says it¡¯s rude to check out anydy,¡± Roselet said and kept her stick on his neck. ¡°I identally came here and was about to leave.¡± Saying this, she removed the stick from his neck and started leaving. ¡°This is it? You won¡¯t hurt me by hitting me with the stick in your hand.¡± He asked. ¡°I¡¯m your enemy.¡± ¡°My daddy says that we should never attack pups, pregnant women, and old people, even if they¡¯re our enemy,¡± Roselet replied. ¡°I didn¡¯t know an animal could think so much.¡± He mocked. ¡°Daddy says animals are better than cruel humans. We don¡¯t attack anyone unless they attack us first.¡± Roselet responded. ¡°Why don¡¯t you take an example of a dog, then?¡± ¡°Daddy! Daddy! Do you always do what your ¡®DADDY¡¯ says?¡± He mimicked, teasing her. ¡°No!!!¡± Roselet hissed in anger. ¡°Bet you do. Because you seem like you¡¯re a daddy¡¯s little princess.¡± he teased, on which Roselet fumed in anger. ¡°I¡¯m not his princess. I¡¯m just a mistake.¡± Roselet yelled and started running away from there. Immediately the boy stopped teasing her and watched her running in the wrong direction again. ¡°Hey!! That¡¯s not the way to exit.¡± He shouted and ran behind her. Hearing him, Roselet stopped running and turned around, ¡°Come on, I will show you the way out of ournd.¡± He spoke before adding, ¡°Ournd is protected with witch spell too. If what you said is true, then your people can find you here because they won¡¯t be able to smell you.¡± Saying this, he grabbed her wrist and started taking her out. ¡°Now, don¡¯te into mynd, or next time I will kill you, pup or not.¡± He warned her after showing her the right path. All of a sudden, they heard a growl and found a dirty and hideous wolf a little away from them. He was looking at them as if they were his food. ¡°Oh, No!¡± Roselet muttered in fear. ¡°Rogue!! Runnnnn!!!¡± The boy cried, and they both started running together to save their lives. ¡°Run toward the tree,¡± Roselet shouted and quickly climbed up, recalling her training from the school. The boy followed her in fear because a big bad wolf was behind his buttock, continuously growling and trying to attack with his paw and dirty nails. They sat on the top of the brach and sighed in relief when they watched that rouge looking at them with anger. Roselet knew that a wolf couldn¡¯t climb a tree, so she enjoyed her little sess. ¡°I thought it was myst day.¡± The boy spoke, breathing heavily. ¡°Same here.¡± Roselet smiled, looking at him. She showed her tongue to him to tease him, but her face color paled when the rogue started shifting into human form to climb the tree. The boy poked her shoulder and looked at the area where the trap was around the trees. They both nodded their head. All they had to do was take the rogue near those particr trees. ¡°Eat here!! She is a pup of Blood Moon Pack.¡± The boy said when rogue was almost close to them and jumped from the branch of the tree and started running away, leaving Roselet alone. ¡°Hey!!¡± Roselet cried in fear when she saw that rogue smirking at her, scaring the shit out of her. ¡®But this is not the time to pee in your pant, Rose. Come on; you¡¯re a fighter.¡¯ She self-motivated herself and looked around. She started moving toward the edge of the branch slowly before that rogue would get a hand on her. She looked at the branch of the other tree and started preparing herself to jump over there, and finally, she seeded. She showed her tongue to that rogue again, teasing him, and found him ring at her. But he didn¡¯t follow her this time but targeted that boy who was looking for his silver dagger. ¡°Hey, watch out¡± She yelled, and this helped him to look toward the rogue, who had shifted already and was most probably ready to n to eat him. ¡°Don¡¯t worry about me. I can kill him with this.¡± The boy spoke confidently, showing his dagger. Roselet doubted that he was capable of doing something like that because he was so tiny to kill an adult werewolf, and that was when she observed him moving slowly near the trap. The moment that rogue jumped on him in order to attack him, he moved aside, and that rogue got trapped in a, and out of nowhere, a lot of arrows were shot in that direction, killing him then and there. Roselet closed her eyes and ear even the boy looked away instead of watching his dead body. After a while, ¡°I can¡¯t believe that you left me there to die.¡± Roseletined aftering down from the tree. ¡°Well, I kind of figured out that you can handle yourself.¡± he spoke before adding, ¡°You¡¯re pretty brave.¡± Roselet blushed at thatpliment because, for the first time, some strange had praised her. ¡°Thank you. You¡¯re brave too.¡± She spoke. . #TBC 127 ¡°Man!! You jumped from the tree. I was so impressed when you ended up standing on your feet instead of reaching the hospital.¡± It was that boy¡¯s turn to blush. ¡°We will make a good team,¡± Roselet said in excitement. ¡°That¡¯s not happening. We are from the opposite team, and one day, we will stand in front of each other to kill each other; maybe when we will grow older, then.¡± The boy said in excitement. ¡°I can¡¯t wait for the day when I will attack you, and you won¡¯t stop yourself by thinking of me as a pup. And then¡­ the strongest among us will stay alive,¡± he spoke. Roselet frowned but didn¡¯t say anything about that. She was offering him her friendship, and he was talking about killing each other one day. ¡°By the way, My name is Hunter, and yours?¡± ¡°I¡¯m Roselet.¡± ¡°Come on, Roselet!! Now, get lost from mynd before my people will be here and will kill you.¡± ¡°Umm!! Yeah¡­ I have to reach the city as soon as possible.¡± Roselet said and heard the sound of leaves again. They both looked at each other and then quickly looked for a ce to hide, thinking more rogues were there but little did they know, it was Zordan with a couple of wolves in search of Roselet. ¡®Our sensing power, as well as hearing powers, are not working here, Beta.¡¯ ¡®I know. That¡¯s because there is a trap everywhere. One wrong step, and you¡¯re dead. Just like that rogue.¡¯ Zordan mind linked, pointing toward the dead rouge. They looked around carefully for a while but couldn¡¯t find Roselet. ¡®Let¡¯s go. I think she isn¡¯t here.¡¯ He mind linked everyone. Once they left, both kids came out of their hidden ces approx ten to fifteen minutes. ¡°Pheww¡­ that was a close one. We almost got caught.¡± Hunter sighed. ¡°It looks like a lot of roguese here,¡± Roselet concluded. ¡°But what were you doing here alone? Are you nning to die?¡± She asked. ¡°No. It¡¯s just that I was missing my dad and wanted to stay alone for a while.¡± He replied. ¡°My dad was recently killed by someone like you, I mean, like your people. My family will deal with them on their own. A part of me wants to kill that person on my own, but¡­¡± ¡°But you¡¯re so young.¡± Roseletpleted his sentence. ¡°Yes!!!¡± Hunter nodded his head. ¡°I miss my dad. I wish he was here to see how I kill this rogue.¡± ¡°Hey.¡± Roselet hugged him. ¡°It¡¯s okay. I¡¯m sure wherever he is, he is so proud of you.¡± She said, caressing his back. ¡°After all, you¡¯re so brave.¡± She spoke, breaking the hug. ¡°I should leave now.¡± ¡°Yeah!!¡± Hunter agreed, running his fingers in his hair, and both of them again walked toward the exit. ¡°Bye.¡± ¡°Bye.¡± Roselet had barely taken a few steps toward the right path when a wolf growled at her from the back. She knew this growl. For others, all wolf growling sounds appeared the same, but she definitely recognized a couple of growls clearly. She turned her head and found Cinder looking at her. Cinder couldn¡¯t believe that she had found her daughter this easily. ¡®Wow!!¡¯ She thanked Moon Goddess first and quickly ran toward her, but all of a sudden, she frowned and looked at the little boy in shock who stood between Roselet and her, pointing a tiny silver dagger at her. ¡°Run!!¡± Hunter said to Roselet, thinking this wolf was going to harm Roselet, while she mmed her palm on her forehead and spoke. ¡°She is my mommy.¡± ¡°Mommy?¡± Hunter¡¯s eyes widened, and he looked at Roselet, who nodded her head. He quickly stepped aside and hoped that she wouldn¡¯t hurt him after all; Roselet told him that they don¡¯t attack pups or kids in the human term. Cinder finally came close to Roselet and took a deep breath, inhaling her sweet scent. She thanked Moon Goddess again for keeping her daughter safe. ¡°I¡¯m fine, Mommy,¡± Roselet replied, studying the gesture of Cinder. Hearing this, Cinder growled at her for running away and crouched so that she could sit on her back. ¡°I¡¯m not going to pack again, Mommy.¡± Cinder looked at her, which she kept, shaking her head. In the end, she didn¡¯t have any other left than to shift into her human form, and the other kid standing here had to watch that. She was positive that he was a pup of some hunters, a human, and getting naked in front of a human pup was really ufortable for her, but then she really needed to talk with her daughter and know the reason behind her behavior. She wondered what that witch had said to brainwash her daughter, because of which she took this big step. Cinder imagined her human form, and after a few seconds, Ethlyn was in front of Roselet on her knee. ¡°What happened, dear? Why don¡¯t you want to go the pack?¡± She asked softly, holding Roselet¡¯s arms. ¡°Because I¡¯m the reason because of why daddy has so much responsibility on him. He can¡¯t enjoy his life because of my presence in his life.¡± She said, and her voice started bing heavy again. ¡°Most importantly, mommy, he never wanted me. Grandpa Christian left me outside the pack to get rid of me. I¡¯m.. I¡¯m UNWANTED.¡± Tears rolled out of her eyes at that particr word. Ethlyn wiped her tears with her thumb.ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°And I.. I am t.. the result o¡­ of mis.. mistak.. ke.¡± By now, she was almost a crying mess. ¡°I¡¯m¡­ n.. not a gi.. gift fro¡­ from M.. moon god.. goddess.¡± Ethlyn hugged her tightly and started preparing how to exin things to Roselet because that witch had ruined Roselet¡¯s thoughts by telling her the truth in this way. ¡°Can we talk about it in the pack? She asked softly so that things would be a lot easier when both of Roselet¡¯s parents would be there to exin her doubts and questions. ¡°No!! I do¡­ don¡¯t wa.. want to go the.. ere.¡± She responded, shaking her head. ¡°If you won¡¯t, then how will you get to know the truth from another side as well, sweetheart,¡± Ethlyn spoke, caressing her back. ¡°After that, you¡¯re allowed to make whatever decision you want, but you should at least give yourself a chance to tell yourself the whole truth.¡± ¡°Just like I heard you calmly in the way, you should also give me a chance to hear what I have to say about everything. Hmm?¡± She tried to convince Roselet. ¡°Do you know what the meaning of UNWANTED is? Something that is no longer needed or desired, and we both know that your daddy always cherished you like a princess.¡± ¡°That¡¯s because Grandpa and Grandma threatened to cut their ties with him,¡± Roselet responded, breaking the hug. ¡°So, you mean to say that your daddy loves his parents more than you?¡± Ethlyn questioned. Roselet thought about this question before replying, and she didn¡¯t feel that way. ¡°No, he loves me the most,¡± Roselet whispered. ¡°It¡¯s your mind who is ying games with you by confusing you, but your heart already knows the truth, princess,¡± Ethlyn told her. ¡°People regret his mistake, Rose, but I bet your daddy has always treated you as a blessing in his life.¡± Hearing this, Roselet started, thinking about everything in more detail. Because it was true, Calvin always told her that she came into his life as a blessing. ¡°Your daddy came running to my pack back then because he couldn¡¯t stay away from you for a day longer. Do you really think that he will live happily without your presence in his life?¡± Ethlyn asked softly and sensed Calvin¡¯s presence nearby. ¡°Come on, now!! Be a good girl that you¡¯re ande with me to the pack. Because I really hope that you should give us a chance and hear what we want to say instead of running away from us.¡± She said, and Roselet nodded her head. That was when her eyesnded on her daddy¡¯s wolf and all the other pack members in their wolf forms behind him. Leaving Ethlyn¡¯s side, she ran toward Keanu. Keanu got excited to see her running toward him and quickly lowered his head to lick her face out of love. Ethlyn smiled, watching them together. She realized that Roselet didn¡¯t need her mother in her life because Calvin had been a really great father but¡­. but he couldn¡¯t be the man she wanted to spend her whole life. That was why she had to leave even though she wanted to be the part of Roselet¡¯s life, but there were other ways too to be around her rather than staying with a man who couldn¡¯t respect her. She then turned her head toward the little boy, who was still there with a silver dagger in his hand and was watching Roselet. She lifted her eyes from him and looked around, and her smile vanished when she saw someone aiming a gun at Calvin¡¯s head. Before she would have shouted at him to move, she watched the bullet out of the gun already. She ran and jumped in the air shifting into her wolf form to reach Calvin quickly. She growled at him because she couldn¡¯t mind link him and informing him about the bullet, but Calvin didn¡¯t understand that. Though she was sessful in pushing him away but she ended up copsing on the ground because that bullet hit Ethlyn. Calvin was still trying to understand what the hell had happened when he heard. ¡°ATTACK!!!¡± . #TBC . A/N: Thank you for reading ?? Don¡¯t forget to support my story by showing gems and your reviews ?? Good night. It¡¯s 2:30. Now!! 128 Calvin didn¡¯t even get time to hold Ethlyn when he saw a lot of bullets in their direction. He let out a loud and painful growl so that other wolves of his pack could assemble there as soon as possible. Hunters were using silencers in the gun because of which no one couldn¡¯t see what wasing next. Moreover, they were also trained hunters, not just mere humans against supernatural creatures. Werewolves tried to dodge the bullet because they could watch theming, but Calvin covered Roselet with hisrge body because she wasn¡¯t that quick to escape the bullet neither could her eyes see thating. Damian came in front of them to take the bullet that was for Calvin to save them. He howled in pain and fell to the ground, turning into a human. But that didn¡¯t stop him; he again stood up and took all the other bullets from his body. In the end, he copsed on the ground and died then and there. A lone tear escaped from Calvin¡¯s eye when he felt his death through the bond. All the others wolves howled loudly when they saw Damian dead and ran toward those hunters to rip them apart. Soon, the other wolves joined them soon. Lemieux ran toward Calvin. ¡®Alpha!!! Join the war. I will¡­¡¯ Lemieux was speaking when he felt someone behind him and turned around only to find whole family members and also rtives of Calvin popping out one by one because of Caroline¡¯s teleportation power. ¡®Ah. This is going to have fun.¡¯ He thought. Caroline quickly ran near Ethlyn. ¡°I¡¯m taking them with me.¡± She spoke, looking at Roselet, who had hugged Keanu in fear and was crying at the same time. Keanu nodded his head and pushed Roselet with his head. She was his weakness, and her presence over there wouldn¡¯t let him fight with the enemies because the whole time, he would be worried for her. Colton couldn¡¯t kill his own people, i. e., hunters, not when they weren¡¯t doing anything wrong by killing werewolves; his sword wouldn¡¯t allow him to go against hunters. So, his work was to dodge all the bullets & arrows that wereing toward werewolves with his sword. It looked like the whole hunters of that area started arriving there after a while with multiple weapons. ¡°Step aside!!!¡± Colton ordered, holding the grip of the sword¡¯s hilt, and hit the ground with the point of the de, bringing an earthquake over there. Thend started parting away, and hunters started falling inside it. ¡°He is a supernatural hunter, a human with powers almost like a supernatural creature.¡±Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°He has Alexander¡¯s sword.¡± ¡°Who is he?¡± ¡°His face is covered with a mask.¡± Those hunters were definitely not prepared for this. And the moment Caroline teleported with Ethlyn, Roselet, and Damian. Calvin got up on his paws, and all he could see was red, thinking of the state of Ethlyn, who ended up taking the bullet in her head to save him. Keanu threw his head back and let out an ear-piercing howl. He was raging as the only thing in his mind to destroy the whole n of hunters. He joined his pack members and family members next in ripping out the head of the hunters. Both Calvin and Keanu could feel the pain that Ethlyn was feeling because of the one-sided bond. They were busy killing their enemies to distract his mind from the oue of the bullet that hit Ethlyn¡¯s head. Any attack on either both ¡®Heart and Head¡¯ could lead any wolf to its dead. Soon a witch from the hunter¡¯s side joined the war, who had always helped them with her spell. That was the reason werewolves smelling and hearing power couldn¡¯t work in that area. First, she gave a pain simr to a migraine to everyone, giving of which everyone howled in pain except Colton, who remained unaffected because he was blessed with the power that any kind of magic or spell wouldn¡¯t work on him. So, a lot of hunters attacked him to keep him busy so that he wouldn¡¯t be able to help those werewolves. While that witch increased her spell of Calvin¡¯s brain to kill him by sting all his veins, after all, he was the leader, and once he would be dead, his pack members would run away on their own. ¡°How about picking someone of your own size?¡± Caroline asked with a smirk, joining the war. The moment she used her against Caroline, Caroline absorbed all her power inside her. The pain those werewolves were feeling stopped when Caroline absorbed almost all her powers. ¡°What happened? Why do you look so surprised?¡± Caroline asked with a sly smile on her lips. ¡°What are you?¡± The other witch asked in shock. ¡°Siphoner, if you have heard the name,¡± Caroline replied, attacking her with her own power and throwing you away from there. She watched one of the wolves of the pack ripping her head out of her body. She looked up at the sky and started observing power from the sun and then started throwing fireballs at the hunters. In the next second, the battlefield turned in Calvin¡¯s favor again, and he swore not to leave any alive who was present there or came there to fight with them, who were the reason behind Damian¡¯s death and Ethlyn¡¯s state. The little boy watched this with his own eyes. He was scared and was crying at the loss of his members. The scene around was hard to look at, with dead bodies and blood tainting the ground and trees everywhere. ¡°You should leave from here, boy,¡± Caroline said when she found him hidden under the ground. He looked at her in fear and pointed his dagger with his shaky hand toward her. Caroline smiled at his state before speaking, ¡°I won¡¯t hurt you, but if you will stay here, then you might get hurt.¡± ¡°Come here; I will take you from here.¡± She said, forwarding her hand toward him, on which he shook his head and kept crying. ¡°I promised Rose that I would keep her friend safe, so don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t harm you.¡± She repeated again, and that was true. When Caroline was about to leave after admitting Ethlyn and Roselet to the hospital, Roselet requested Caroline to keep her friend safe who got stuck on that battlefield. Hearing this, Hunter reached near her, really hoping that she wouldn¡¯t hurt him, just like Roselet mentioned earlier. Caroline carried him in her arms and teleported herself to the other side of the battlefield. ¡°Go.¡± She said, putting him on the ground. Hunter looked at her for a while and then ran away from there. After half an hour!! ¡®Alpha, let¡¯s return back to the pack.¡¯ Zordan mind-linked Calvin. ¡®We found out the identity of the hunter¡¯s leaders. David just informed Reva of his name and also that they ran away from here with his family members already.¡¯ [David Fincher, a spy appointed by Calvin to find out the real identity of the hunters. I have mentioned him in Chapter 32.] ¡®We can handle themter.¡¯ Zordan suggested because Calvin was so pissed that he didn¡¯t even want to spare anyone. ¡®Luna is injured, and your presence near her will strengthens her wolf to recover as soon as possible.¡¯ ¡®Ethlyn!¡¯ Keanu whimpered, thinking about her. She was in this state because of him. Neither did he bring that witch into the pack, nor would Roselet have got a chance to meet her, and all other things that followed behind wouldn¡¯t have happened. He knew he was under a spell because of which he thought Chloe was his mate, but he couldn¡¯t give that as an excuse for the insult and hurtful things that he said to her. That also reminded him of his conversation with Colton, he looked around in search of him, but he was nowhere to be found. He needed to reach Ethlyn first before apologizing to his brother sincerely, not to forget Ethlyn was also on that list. . #TBC 129 ¡°Is she fine?¡± Calvin asked Liara when he reached the hospital. He very well knew that she was the best in her work. ¡°I have removed the bullet from her brain, but the bullet was coated with wolfsbane, because of which I can¡¯t sense her wolf. And we both know that if wolfsbane reaches any werewolf¡¯s brain, then it damages¡­.¡± ¡°Lee, I don¡¯t want to know that part. Just tell me that she will be fine, right?¡± Calvin asked, cutting her in between. ¡°I can¡¯t say that she will be absolutely all right,¡± Liara replied instead of giving any hope to him. ¡°I know that right now, I may sound selfish, but¡­ but is it possible that you can use your power in this state?¡± he asked, getting desperate. Out of all the siblings, Liara was blessed with a special power that made her more special than she already was. [You have read her book to know that. ] ¡°Trust me, I already did, but the rest of the things depend on Moon Goddess and how Ethlyn¡¯s body reacts to the medicines,¡± Liara replied, and her face paled when her eyesnded on her mate, who was giving her a cold look. ¡°Seems like I¡¯m going to get the silent treatment.¡± She muttered. That was when Calvin noticed Theodore¡¯s presence. He might be mad at his mate for using her powers when she was pregnant. Liara gave him an innocent and walked toward him while Calvin looked at her mom, who was there for him. Actually, his whole family wanted to be there for him, but a lot of werewolves were admitted to the hospital because of the injuries. So, it was better to stay with only one or two family members with the patient rather than shifting the whole family to the hospital.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°She will be all right. Don¡¯t worry.¡± Sophia Haysbert said, reaching Calvin and wiping the tear that rolled out of his eyes which he didn¡¯t know about until his mother wiped it. ¡°I can¡¯t feel Cinder, Mom,¡± Calvin said in worry. His panic was growing with each passing second. ¡°I¡¯m scared, Mom, that I might end up losing Cinder.¡± Saying this, he started crying bitterly and hugged Sophia tightly. ¡°I¡­ I used to tease her¡­ by.. by calling her USELESS.¡± Calvin spoke. ¡°Never did I think that she would shut my mouth, showing that how important she was in this way.¡± Calvin cried in Sophia for god knows how long and then when into the room in which Ethlyn was. He came there to apologize to her after crying on his mother¡¯s shoulder but seeing her between the machines; he couldn¡¯t control his tears again. She looked like she was in a deep sleep, the sleep in which she used to be when he had left her after fucking her the whole night, not moving an inch. He couldn¡¯t even see her breathing on her own, but the machines surrounding her was the one helping her in breathing properly. ¡°I¡¯m sorry is a very small word for the things that I said to you and for the way I made you feel.¡± He finally spoke, holding her cold hand. Even Keanu was going nuts for not being able to feel Cinder even when she was sleeping right in front of her. The thought of her going into aa for again five years or something simr to that was making him worried. ¡°Why did you save me? Why?¡± He asked and received no answer from her in return. ¡®I can never think of hurting anyone. You know that, right?¡¯ ¡®I doubt I do. I wonder how your father handled that toxic woman for around twenty-five years, but I won¡¯t make the mistake of doing it for that long. ¡®Then go ahead. Reject me. This¡­ this rejection is not in my hand because I haven¡¯t marked you yet, but leaving you is definitely in my control, and I won¡¯t mind LEAVING you forever.¡¯ Ethlyn¡¯s words rocked his brain as he fought to control his tears which had apparently stopped a moment before. He fought to keep hisposure. He fought to control the pain that he felt at the thought that came into his mind unknowingly. What if ¡®LEAVING¡¯ meant leaving the world? That simple thought was making him lose his shit, and his heart wouldn¡¯t stop throbbing. Keanu felt like he would die if that happened for real. All he recalled all he hadst memory with Ethlyn was that he had hurt her badly. Still, she risked her life to save him. **** A few hourster!! ¡°Rose, please eat something, sweetheart.¡± Caroline tried to feed her, but she just shook her head, refusing to eat anything, and cried thinking about Ethlyn¡¯s situation. ¡°Mommy is in this condition because of me.¡± She said, and tears dwelled in her eyes again. Just like Calvin, even she was a crying mess. ¡°That¡¯s not true.¡± Caroline tried to exin to her again, but Roselet was not ready to believe her. She kept ming herself because only if she wouldn¡¯t run away from the pack wouldn¡¯t this incident have happened. ¡°Thank god you¡¯re here.¡± Caroline sighed when Calvin walked into Roselet¡¯s room. ¡°Only you can make your daughter understand that what she is thinking is so wrong.¡± She added. Calvin didn¡¯t want to leave Ethlyn¡¯s side, but then Tiara informed him that he had to attend to his daughter as well because she was sitting extremely sad after crying a lot, not eating anything, and also she wasn¡¯t talking to anyone about it except repeating, ¡®Mommy is in this condition because of me¡¯ as if she went into some trauma. ¡°Daddddyyy,¡± Roselet ran on the bed toward Calvin and started crying on her own when she saw him. Calvin was quick to pick her up in his arms and hugged her. ¡°Yes, love?¡± He whispered, kissing her cheek and caressing her back. Caroline smiled and left from there by keeping the dinner on the table, giving Roselet space so that she could talk to her father about whatever she had inside her heart. ¡°How¡¯s Mommy?¡± She asked and received no answer from Calvin. She broke the hug and looked at Calvin, who was also crying. She wiped his tears. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. It happened because of me.¡± She spoke. . #TBC 130 ¡°You can put me in the cell for it or even banish me from the pack as a punishment. I don¡¯t deserve anyone¡¯s love. Mommy kept telling me to talk calmly after reaching the pack, but¡­ but I didn¡¯t listen to her.¡± She said, and tears escaped from her eyes. ¡°Only if I would have listened to her, then this wouldn¡¯t have happened.¡± Calvin looked at her in shock. Five years old wanted to go behind bars and was suggesting him to kick her out of the pack to redeem her mistake because she was thinking that it was her mistake. But it wasn¡¯t her mistake in the first ce. He agreed that she shouldn¡¯t have run away like that, but how could he me her when is he being an adult, didn¡¯t handle the situation maturely? Then she was just a pup who just wanted her father¡¯s happiness by running away from him. ¡°If you want punishment for this mistake, then you will get one,¡± Calvin spoke strictly. He knew that until and unless she wouldn¡¯t get punished for what she did, she wouldn¡¯t be able to forgive herself and for a pup of her age, ming herself for her mother¡¯s state wasn¡¯t healthy for her mind. ¡°But your punishment doesn¡¯t include throwing you out of the pack or sending you into the cell.¡± He paused before continuing, ¡°Your punishment is that you will have to listen to your mother¡¯s words ALWAYS without going against her.¡± ¡°I will. I will.¡± Roselet nodded her head and cried while Calvin wiped her tears. ¡°But she will have to be awake from her deep sleep and start speaking to me so that I get a chance to follow all her words.¡± She added before asking. ¡°She will be all right, won¡¯t she, daddy?¡± Roselet asked that question about which Calvin didn¡¯t have an answer. Roselet hugged him after watching him silent. ¡°I promise you, daddy, that now I won¡¯t ask you two to stay together once she is awake. You were right. Not all pups get a chance to stay with their parents. I don¡¯t want to learn this lesson the hard way. It will be better that she stays safe and sound away from here instead of staying here and falling in danger all the time.¡± Calvin didn¡¯t like the way Roselet was giving up on her tiny little dream of staying with her real parents. Arge part of him was positive that the moment Ethlyn would be awake from her beauty sleep. She would LEAVE him for what he had done, and the fact that Roselet wasn¡¯t going to help him either was going to make his situation more difficult than he thought. ***** ¡®Alpha, she is awake.¡¯ Hearing this from Zordan, Calvin quicklypleted bathing, which he hadn¡¯t done in thest five days. Calvin barely used to leave Ethlyn¡¯s side because he wanted to be beside her so that when she would open her eyes, she would find him beside him, waiting for her. But today, everyone kicked him away from Ethlyn, saying that the reason Ethlyn wasn¡¯t able toe out from her deep sleep was that whenever she used to try to wake up, her n to wake up used to get canceled by smelling such an unbreathable scent around her. ¡®If I would have known that she would be awake only when I would take a bath, then I wouldn¡¯t have taken so much time.¡¯ Calvin thought, and immediately he realized that he didn¡¯t feel Cinder¡¯s presence even if Ethlyn was awake. ¡®Does that mean something¡­¡¯ Keanu couldn¡¯t evenplete the sentence and ran as fast as he could to reach Ethlyn. ¡°Calvin, Calvin!! Wait. There is a problem.¡± Zordan stopped him outside Ethlyn¡¯s room in which she was. ¡°I already know. Her wolf.¡± Saying this, he quickly opened the door of the room. ¡°No, it¡¯s¡­¡± Words died in Zordan¡¯s mouth when he realized that it was toote to inform anything to Calvin. Calvin looked at Ethlyn, who had a smile on her face and was holding Reva¡¯s hand. She turned her head toward Calvin and smiled at him. Calvin¡¯s eyes lightened up when he saw her smiling at him. He was about to open his mouth when Ethlyn spoke, ¡°And now, who is he?¡± She asked and looked at Reva.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Umm¡­ mm, he is the Alpha of my new pack,¡± Reva replied, and hearing this, Calvin felt that someone stole the ground under his feet. ¡°That¡¯s cool. It seems like you¡¯re everyone¡¯s favorite here. That¡¯s why all the family members on your Alpha are here.¡± Ethlyn said, and that was when Calvin looked at the face of his family members, who were equally shocked by all this. ¡°Everyone is here, dad,¡± Ethlyn said, looking at Christian Smith. ¡°¡­ but where is Mom? And most importantly, where is Nathan? I thought he woulde here running like an idiot to see me.¡± She added with a big smile on her face. If her previous words had snatched the ground under Calvin¡¯s feet, these words would have been like a tight p on his face. ¡®Please tell me that this is all dream.¡¯ He thought in disbelief and pain. First, she forgot him, and second, she remembered that¡­ that Nathan. This was no less than a joke. ¡®Was this the problem that Zordan was talking about earlier?¡¯ He wondered. ¡®And what happened to her wolf and her memory?¡¯ he questioned and looked at Liara, who was writing something on the notepad and might be studying this case. ¡®Do hell with the study.¡¯ He cursed and spoke, ¡°Lee, Can I have you for a few minutes?¡± ¡°Excuse me,¡± She said and left the room with Calvin. ¡°If you¡¯re going to ask me what happened with her wolf, then for your kind information, I don¡¯t know about it yet. And it looks like she is suffering from amnesia.¡± ¡°Looks like? Is there anything else that you can tell me that I don¡¯t? Because I figured out both the situation already.¡± Calvin said, getting annoyed. He wasn¡¯t able to understand what was making him more upset, the fact that Cinder wasn¡¯t here or the fact that Ethlyn was looking for Nathan. ¡°She doesn¡¯t remember anything from the moment she turned seventeen.¡± Liara said, to which Calvin gave her a ¡®you gotta to be kidding me¡¯ look. In short, Ethlyn had no memory of Calvin. All she remembered was that cheater Nathan, who practically broke all his ties with Elena after cheating on Ethlyn once and had been acting like a saint since then. ¡°But don¡¯t worry, it won¡¯tst long.¡± ¡°Still, how long?¡± ¡°Maximum a month,¡± Liara replied meekly when she saw her brother fuming in anger. ¡°Alpha,¡± Reva spoke behind him after walking out of the room. ¡°I wanted to ask if we can call Nathan here. Ethlyn is asking for him again and again. And you know, there was a time when Nathan and Ethlyn were both inseparable.¡± Calvin¡¯s fist clenched, hearing it. ¡°What are you nning to do then?¡± He growled in anger, turning toward her. ¡°Acting like a cupid between them.¡± ¡°No! No! Absolutely not. I have told her a part of the truth already, and thankfully she is taking it in a good way. I¡­ I¡¯m not just ready to tell what happened between Nathan and her¡­ that¡¯s not a good memory of her life, you know!!¡± She replied in a low tone. That was right. That part of Ethlyn¡¯s life was definitely not something that she should remember, but he wouldn¡¯t let NATHANe between them. Calvin didn¡¯t reply anything to her and dashed out of there. While he was angrily walking toward his office, he heard Roselet¡¯s voice. He halted in between and turned around. ¡°Are you going to call Alpha Nathan here, daddy?¡± ¡°No.¡± ¡°But why? Mommy wants him by her side.¡± Roselet asked in confusion. ¡°Because I don¡¯t want to.¡± ¡°But why? I don¡¯t understand. I have already told you that I don¡¯t want to stay with my real parents now. If she is happy with someone else, then let her be.¡± She spoke. Calvin bit his inner cheeks and stopped himself from notshing at her. He wouldn¡¯t let Ethlyn go, that was for sure. ¡®And I will kill, kill, kill anyone who will try to be the third wheel between him and her.¡¯ Keanu swore. . #TBC 131 ¡°Anything else that you¡¯re feeling?¡± Liara asked Ethlyn, who shook her head. ¡°I¡¯m feeling drowsy and have a headache. I guess I need more sleep.¡± Ethlyn replied and ran touched at the ce where she had no hair now because of surgery. Even the hairs around that ce had been trimmed. ¡°Okay then, you can have some rest. We will talkter.¡± Liara replied, and Tiara quickly added. ¡°And I get hair extension or wing. So, you won¡¯t feel awkward if that is what you are thinking.¡± She said to cheer her up, to which Ethlyn smiled. ¡°Thank you, Tiara.¡± ¡°Oh, please!! Don¡¯t be formal again. Call me ¡®Tee.''¡± ¡°Okay, enough now. Let Ethlyn rest for a while.¡± Sophia said and caressed Ethlyn¡¯s cheek. ¡°Don¡¯t take any kind of stress, okay.¡± ¡°Hmm.¡± Ethlyn nodded her head and watched everyone leave one by one. She couldn¡¯t help but feel special watching so many people get worried for her. She had barely closed her eyes when she heard someone open the door again. She opened her eyes and saw Roselet, who was ready to leave, watching Ethlyn sleeping. ¡°I¡¯m awake, pup.¡± She spoke when she watched how sad Roselet looked finding her sleeping. ¡°Mommy?¡± ¡°Listen, pup; I¡¯m not your mommy. Just because you don¡¯t have a mommy doesn¡¯t mean you will call me mommy.¡± Ethlyn said rudely, narrowing her eyes. ¡°You¡¯re my mommy. It¡¯s just that this truth is unaware of you.¡± Roselet corrected her, walking toward Ethlyn. ¡°And I have a mommy; what do you think about where Ie from? My daddy didn¡¯t buy me from the mall.¡± She then responded to Ethlyn. They both kept ring at each other for a while before they started smiling. Ethlyn opened her arms for Roselet, and she quickly ran to hug her. ¡°My princess,¡± Ethlyn mumbled and kissed her hair. She recalled how they had fought in the same way when they had met. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Mommy,¡± Roselet whispered, breaking the hug, and started struggling to climb on her bed. Ethlyn helped her a little, and finally, she was on the bed. ¡°I thought I would lose you forever.¡± Ethlyn smiled meekly and kissed the top of her hands. ¡°I would have started a war against Moon Goddess if she would have separated me from my daughter.¡± Roselet giggled, hearing it before speaking, ¡°I can¡¯t doubt that because you¡¯re pretty brave.¡± She watched Ethlyn holding her head. ¡°I should be going now. You can rest for a while.¡± ¡°If you want, then you can rest with me, beside me, because this bed is big enough for both of us.¡± Ethlyn offered. ¡°Only if you don¡¯t have anything else to do.¡± She added. ¡°I¡¯m free.¡± Roselet agreed in the next second. After a moment, Roselet slept, holding Ethlyn¡¯s waist. Ethlyn learned from Sophia that how Roselet was miserable without her. That was when she recalled when she gained consciousness two nights before when Calvin had left her side just to feed Roselet dinner because she didn¡¯t use to eat it without him. It was also her way of making Calvin eat his dinner. It was a tough time, so both father and daughter were looking after one other. When she had gained consciousness, Caroline was sitting beside her. *Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. FLASHBACK * ¡°Oh my god, Ethlyn!!¡± Caroline carefully watched Ethlyn¡¯s eyes to check whether it was really open or she was dreaming because Ethlyn¡¯s eyes were half opened. ¡°Finally, you¡¯re back. Let me call Calvin. He just left her.¡± She said in excitement was about to leave when Ethlyn held her hand and shook her head. ¡°What happened? You don¡¯t want me to call Calvin?¡± She asked in shock. Ethlyn again shook her head before speaking. ¡°No!!¡± Ethlyn replied. ¡°I¡­I don¡¯t want to do anything with him.¡± Hearing this, Caroline¡¯s face paled. She couldn¡¯t help but feel bad for Calvin, who wanted Ethlyn to wake up, but after Ethlyn was awake, she didn¡¯t want him at all. ¡°Can you please help?¡± Ethlyn asked. ¡°Okay, I will, but only if you will tell me the reason behind your this decision.¡± Caroline kept the condition. Ethlyn wasn¡¯t sure whether she couldin about her brother to her face or not, but she indeed felt that, as a woman, she would understand her anger toward Calvin. With this thought, she wound up everything that had happened. ¡°So, what do you want?¡± Caroline asked calmly. It was clear that Ethlyn was mad and hurt by Calvin¡¯s behavior. ¡°I don¡¯t want to stay anywhere near him, and I don¡¯t want to talk to him either,¡± Ethlyn replied. She wanted to take revenge on him by hurting him in the same way in which he did but guess what? That wasn¡¯t her. And she couldn¡¯t stoop that low just to teach him a lesson. She couldn¡¯t insult his mother just because he did the same. ¡°That is it?¡± Caroline asked. ¡°My little brother needs to taste his own medicine. Giving silent treatment and cold looks are a childish way to show anger. The real revenge is when you will make him feel the same way that he did it to do. Otherwise, he will never learn to value your presence and will take you for granted.¡± ¡°But¡­¡± ¡°No, but wut!! You shared your problem with me, having faith in me, right?¡± Caroline asked to which Ethlyn nodded her head. ¡°Then let me solve your problem in the best way. You told me that he didn¡¯t let you mark him, but I will make sure that he will be begging on his knees to mark him now, keeping his damn attitude by his side.¡± ¡°But¡­ but I can¡¯t feel Cinder.¡± ¡°That¡¯s because of medicine or something. Lee will check on that. And after hearing what Calvin has done with you, trust me, each and every family member will favor you over him.¡± Caroline spoke. ¡°To be honest, we can never thank you for what you did for that idiot. So, I won¡¯t thank you for that.¡± ¡°But still, I could have understood if you would have risked your life for Rose, but what did you think when you risked your life for Calvin? I mean, if anything would have happened to him, then Rose would have been all yours, just like you wanted.¡± ¡°I won¡¯t lie, but if anyone else would have been there at the ce of Alpha Calvin, then I would have done the same. So, by saving him, I don¡¯t think I did anything big. But yes, I had forgotten how to breathe when I saw a bulleting in his direction.¡± ¡°Have¡­ have you fallen in love with that stupid?¡± Caroline asked, to which Ethlyn didn¡¯t say anything because she wasn¡¯t sure of that question. ¡°All right, think about that. By then, I will talk to everyone about an excellent skit that is going on in my mind.¡± She said with a smirk. ¡°Won¡¯t be able to smell lies? I mean, if you¡¯re nning anything, then he can sense it.¡± ¡°I¡¯m a witch, remember?¡± Caroline said confidently. ¡°But I have to keep Colton away from all this. Not that he is interested in all this skit and drama, but the fact that anyone¡¯s power doesn¡¯t work on him. He won¡¯t be able to lie, and in case he did, Calvin would smelt it. Ethlyn was about to ask why it was possible that her power couldn¡¯t work on Colton when Caroline spoke, ¡°Calvin is here. Act like you were never awake.¡± * shback ends!! * Ethlyn didn¡¯t know how long she slept holding Roselet in her arms, but the moment she opened her eyeszily, she found a pair of brown eyes looking at her. ¡°You¡¯re taking revenge on me by acting to forget me, aren¡¯t you?¡± . #TBC . A/N: Phe¡­ The third chapter of the day!! Done and dusted. ?? Thank you for reading ?? Please share your views and drop GEM on the story ?? 132 Calvin spent some time reading about Amnesia over the inte. He wanted Ethlyn to remember everything within a second, if possible. He knew that those were not very moments for Ethlyn, but that was where their connection had begun, unknowingly. He read in detail about how to deal with Amnesia and then groaned in frustration recalling how she didn¡¯t recognize him. While after that incident, Calvin kept recalling each and every moment. He smiled, thinking about the p from her and the background song at the same time. ¡®My heart goes La di da, da di da La di da, da di da La di da, da di da¡¯ ¡®I should go and make her listen to this song.¡¯ He thought and hoped for her to remember something about her past. With this thought, he ran back to her and was surprised to see her sleeping with their princess. ¡®Is her memory back?¡¯ This was the first thought that came to his mind and a big smile appeared on his lips. He sat on the stool near the bed and kept staring at both thedies. He kept staring at them while they were sleeping and a lot of things kept running through his mind, wondering how this was possible that she got her memory back. She was holding Roselet as if her life depended on her. ¡®What if her memory is all right and she is ying with me to take revenge on me?¡¯ He wondered and felt that this could be the possibility of this. As much as he knew his family members, they could go against their own family members if they would know about how he behaved with Ethlyn because of Chloe, not just that he even insulted Colton. But Ethlyn wasn¡¯t someone who wouldin about him to his family members, was she? When he was thinking all this when he sensed her waking from her sleep.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. In the next moment, her hazel eyes met his brown, and he threw the arrow aimlessly, ¡°You¡¯re taking revenge on me by acting to forget me, aren¡¯t you?¡± ¡®Please say YES, YES, YES!!¡¯ He kept chanting in his mind and found her furrowing her eyes. ¡°I¡¯m sorry is a very small for what I have done, Ethlyn, but¡­ but just not take revenge in this way. I know I have hurt you. I made you wait for me like a stupid and didn¡¯t even care to apologize when I finally came to have dinner with you because of my so-called ego. I¡¯m sorry for that.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry for even thinking about Chloe even for a once when I had thought to give US a chance. You never told me, but I know that I hurt you and Cinder a lot. I won¡¯t give an excuse that I gave you both that pain just for a while because that doesn¡¯t matter whether you kill someone once or twice; the pain will be a pain.¡± ¡°I couldn¡¯t even begin to imagine the pain I¡¯d put you through but somewhere, I could guess that it would have broken your heart into tiny pieces to see me giving more priorities to someone else. Because right now, I¡¯m thinking in the same way by imagining you with Nathan. I saw the hurt in your eyes that I¡¯d put there by not mentioning even a once that I chose you over her when Colton said that he would spend time with you if I would stay with Chloe.¡± ¡°I know that was selfish of me that I thought to have both of you, but not once I thought to leave you. I know that was also wrong. It¡¯s not that I realized all this in thest couple of days. I knew that about it all along but did nothing at that moment is the past that is killing me inside.¡± ¡°I hate myself for what I have done and trust me, the guilt within me is eating me. I won¡¯t me Keanu fully for all this because only if I would have determined my decision, then wouldn¡¯t this have happened. I¡¯m willing toy down my life if you will ask that from me for what I have done. Also, I owe my life to you.¡± ¡°I agree that I didn¡¯t kiss Chloe or sleep with her but thinking of spending my life with her even for a second is counted as cheating. I know what I did is unforgivable, but I promise that I¡¯m willing to spend the rest of my life making up for it.¡± ¡°I¡¯m not asking you to forgive me now and here. Take your time. Just¡­ just don¡¯t y this game with me.¡± Calvin nearly begged, and a lone tear escaped from Ethlyn¡¯s eyes. ¡°Please, say something.¡± Ethlyn took a moment to respond to the speech that Calvin said in front of me, ¡°Wow!!¡± She whispered, wiping her tears. ¡°Your acting and your dialogues were so real that I felt that I was in another world.¡± She said, showing how impressed she was with his speech. ¡°Ethlyn¡­¡± ¡°Now, tell me, where is the camera?¡± Ethlyn asked, looking around as if she was searching for the camera. ¡°Just because I don¡¯t have my memory, you¡¯re trying to prank me, right?¡± She questioned with a yful smile, trying her best not to show that she wasn¡¯t really affected by Calvin¡¯s heartfelt apology. ¡°This¡­this is not a prank, Ethlyn,¡± Calvin spoke in a low tone. He felt like his tiny hope was crushed badly when Ethlyn called his feeling a prank. ¡°I¡­. I was sincere with my words.¡± ¡°Oh, okkkaaayyy!! Reva didn¡¯t tell me about all this, but anyway, now that I don¡¯t remember the pain you gave me, you don¡¯t have to apologize to me. And if that is not enough, then you¡¯re forgiven if that is what you want.¡± Ethlyn said as if she wasn¡¯t a big deal for him. She really wished him to leave the room, or she would be exposed because it was hard to pretend in front of him with each passing second. ¡®You¡¯re forgiven if that is what you want.¡¯ Calvin repeated her words in his mind. He didn¡¯t just want forgiveness. He wanted more. He wanted her. ¡°Will you please leave now, Alpha?¡± Ethlyn asked. ¡°I want to sleep again.¡± She added to kick him out from there. ¡°I will be back again because this is not over,¡± Calvin whispered and stood up on his feet, and started leaning toward her. Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened at first, thinking that he was going to kiss her, but instead, he shifted toward Roselet and kissed her hair. He smirked when he heard her heart pounding loudly inside her chest. ¡®She might have forgotten me, but her heart still has the same effect that it had before.¡¯ He thought before leaving. . #TBC . Thank you for reading ?? I was thinking of posting the first chapter of my new book tomorrow. ¡®Fated Mates,¡¯ The story of Liara and Theodore, one can avoid reading that book who don¡¯t prefer rape and abuses kind of things. 133 Calvin thought about Ethlyn¡¯s situation calmly. And that was when he realized that Ethlyn¡¯s memory loss wasn¡¯t that a big deal for him. It was like a new and fresh chance for him to impress Ethlyn in a good and perfect way this time. Last time, she had made a wrong opinion about him from the beginning, not that he didn¡¯t give her a chance to do so. But this time, things could be different. Maybe that was because Moon Goddess had created this situation so that he could make everything right this time. ¡®Fuck! Why the hell I didn¡¯t think this way?¡¯ He thought, taking this situation in a positive way. He quickly mind-linked Reva and asked her toe to his office. ¡°Oh, no!!¡± Reva shook her head after her Alpha disconnected the mind link. ¡°What happened?¡± Zordan asked. ¡°Alpha called me into his office. I¡¯m kind of scared of his anger and the fact that he doesn¡¯t think for a second before raising his hand, even on the woman in anger, is something because of which I don¡¯t want to face his bad side.¡± She muttered. ¡°You¡¯re the beta female of the pack, Reva. You can¡¯t avoid facing him.¡± Zordan pointed out. ¡°Moreover, we already know what could be the reason why he would be calling you right now. So, go ahead and let us know what Calvin is thinking or nning his next move.¡± ¡°I just hope that he wouldn¡¯t be nning to kill Nathan,¡± Reva said in tension before walking toward Calvin¡¯s office. ¡®Poor, Nathan! He doesn¡¯t have any idea what is going on here, and if Alpha Calvin would n anything against him, then he won¡¯t be able to figure out the reason behind it.¡¯ She mentally thought. After thinking about all this, she knocked on Calvin¡¯s office door. ¡°Come in,¡± She heard and walked inside his office. She bowed her head to greet him. ¡°Grab a seat,¡± Calvin said, pointing at the chair in front of him. Once Reva settled on the chair, Calvin spoke, ¡°Alpha Nathan and Ethlyn know each other from their young age, isn¡¯t it?¡± ¡°Yes, Alpha.¡± Reva nodded her head, thinking that his jealousy was at its peak. ¡°Now, it¡¯s your job to make sure that I know most of the things about Ethlyn. More than anyone. More than Nathan, of course. And in case you¡¯re going to say that you don¡¯t know much about your very own sister, then I will make sure that from tomorrow onwards, you will have to attend a training for no less than three hours.¡± Calvin already warned before he could get a chance to hear ¡®NO¡¯ from Reva. Reva¡¯s face paled upon hearing this. Now, she didn¡¯t have any other option but to say yes. ¡°Perfect. Let¡¯s start with her favorite food, then.¡± Calvin started, to which Reva nodded her head. Reva couldn¡¯t understand why Calvin was making a note of each, and every likes and dislikes, favorite and not favorite things of Ethlyn because, to her, it was so childish. He started from Ethlyn¡¯s favorite color, her favorite movie, her favorite season, her favorite visiting ce, mountains or beaches, to many more very little tiny things.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. After an hour, Reva was finally done with providing all the information that Calvin needed; Calvin asked her to leave. ¡°Alpha, Ethlyn was asking about Nathan. Can you ask him to¡­¡± ¡°Not happening,¡± Calvin said, cutting her in between. ¡°If Ethlyn will ask about that coward who doesn¡¯t have a backbone, then ask her to talk to me directly. Or, you can deliver my message to her that she is here for treatment, and only family members are allowed as long as she is here in my pack.¡± Calvin replied rudely. ¡®And there goes his mood.¡¯ Reva thought. ¡°Okay.¡± She agreed. ¡°By the Alpha, I have to talk about the woman in the sketch. About which you were searching before. The same Isabe West.¡± ¡°What is it?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know much, but I have seen her once with Nathan,¡± Reva told him. ¡°Hmm. I know about that. It¡¯s just that I¡¯m currently busy with Ethlyn¡¯s situation, so I didn¡¯t get time to look at the other things. But thanks anyways.¡± Calvin said. Once she left, Calvin brushed that topic from his mind for a while. But he had to close the chapter of Elena from Ethlyn¡¯s life once and for all before she would start nning something against Ethlyn again. At that moment, he had more important work that he had to do today. * ¡°You want me to lie to Ethlyn that her situation is serious and make her stay here in the pack,¡± Liara asked again to reconfirm what she had heard. Calvin smiled and nodded his head. ¡°Yes!! I don¡¯t think that¡¯s a tough job for you. You can do that, right?¡± Calvin asked her with a lot of hope. ¡°I won¡¯t lie, Lee, but I have messed up everything a big time. So, I¡¯m thinking of starting everything fresh.¡± ¡°But why?¡± Liara questioned. ¡°What do you mean by that?¡± Calvin asked and frowned. ¡°My question is simple, Calvin. Why are you doing this or nning to do all this? Is it because you¡¯re feeling guilty for hurting Ethlyn by judging her, or you¡¯re grateful to her for saving your life, or you want a mother for Roselet who can help you in another way as well? You better know what I mean!!¡± She asked again, on which Calvin was nk. All he knew was that he wanted her, no matter what it cost; of course, it only included materialistic stuff. He recalled each and every moment that he had spent with Ethlyn. He always felt happy and his true self around her by teasing her or irritating her. He was positive that Ethlyn enjoyed his behavior too. That was it. So, it was sure that he was definitely not in love with her. But¡­ ¡°I feel I¡¯m falling for her,¡± Calvin replied, thinking about the feelings that he had for her. ¡°I¡­ I don¡¯t know when and how this happened, but I obviously know what I feel for her. I¡­ I¡¯ve been jealous, frustrated, annoyed, and irritated from the moment that Nathan Python entered the picture. I¡¯m scared that to lose her. Even though Rose doesn¡¯t want her real parents to be together but¡­ but I want that to happen. I won¡¯t lie, but I don¡¯t want Ethlyn just because she is Roselet¡¯s mother. I want her because I want her. So, will you please help me?¡± ¡°Umm.. mm, Well, how can I say NO?¡± Liara said, shrugging her shoulder. Calvin couldn¡¯t control his happiness and hugged her. ¡°I¡¯m not a hugger,¡± Liarained. Calvin looked down at her before speaking, ¡°Really? Don¡¯t tell me that you haven¡¯t hugged your mate even once.¡± he mocked. ¡°Actually, it took us three years to hug each other,¡± Liara said, breaking the hug. ¡°Three fucking years? Damn, it¡¯s slower than a sloth. At the same time, I can give you three nieces or nephews in three years if I will count one pup each year and six in case of twins.¡± Liara shook her head in disbelief and hit him lightly. . #TBC 134 ¡°What happened? What¡¯s the update?¡± Ethlyn asked, trying to hide her excitement, but she failed miserably. To be honest, the moment Calvin had apologized to her, she wanted to forgive him then and there and wanted to reveal that she was faking her memory loss, but Caroline had assured her that if she would have some patience, then she would get both Cinder and what she desired. ¡°Ah!! Someone is so excited.¡± Reva teased, walking inside her room. ¡°Reva¡­.¡± ¡°Hold on!! Act like you don¡¯t remember anything, or you might get caught because the whole pack is not included in this n.¡± Reva warned. ¡°And only Moon Goddess knows about Alpha¡¯s mood; it flips any moment into one eighty degrees.¡± She added with a tense look. ¡°What happened? Did he do anything?¡± Ethlyn asked. ¡°No. Nothing. At least not now.¡± Reva replied, shaking her head. ¡°May I ask you something?¡± ¡°Yeah! Sure.¡± ¡°If you will have to choose between Alpha Calvin and Nathan, then whom will you choose? Ignore the part that Alpha Calvin is your daughter¡¯s father.¡± ¡°Comparing Alpha Calvin with Nathan is so wrong. Nathan and I had spent our childhood together and had watched each other growing older still¡­. Still, I can¡¯t forget what he did to me on my pup¡¯s gender revtion day. On the other side, Alpha Calvin barely knows me¡­ still he can¡¯t do the same to me. That day, when I beat the shit out of that witch, he could have raised his hand at me in anger. After all, by then, he was assuming she was his fated mate.¡± ¡°I¡¯m not praising Alpha Calvin for this, but that man has insulted me multiple times either because of anger or misunderstanding, but never did he allow anyone else to insult me.¡± Ethlyn pointed out. ¡°But he shouldn¡¯t insult you at all,¡± Reva said, to which Ethlyn didn¡¯t say anything. ¡°Anyways, I won¡¯t speak in that matter. Can you point out something better? Because from the point where I¡¯m watching everything, they both hurt you. The difference is one hurt you a little more, and one hurt you a little less.¡± ¡°Ah! In that way¡­. Alpha Calvin didn¡¯t hide anything from me. He hurt me by telling me the truth but Nathan¡­ Nathan spent a night with someone else and didn¡¯t care to tell me about it, even when we were together. Most importantly, Reva, Alpha Calvin apologized to me when he realized that he hurted me. On the other side, Nathan knew he did wrong but never¡­. Never did he agree that he wasn¡¯t a saint either.¡± ¡°Saying ¡°I¡¯m sorry¡± actually shows strength, not weakness. A person who can apologize-and truly mean it-is self-aware.¡± Ethlyn said. ¡°We can¡¯t grow unless we fail.¡± ¡°And now that I know the truth. I don¡¯t think SORRY will work in Nathan¡¯s case. Because Sorry works only when a mistake is made, but not when trust is broken.¡± ¡°Hmm. That¡¯s the point.¡± Reva said and forwarded a book toward her. ¡°Here. Just like you had asked, a book to kill your time here in the hospital.¡± Ethlyn grabbed the book and saw its thickness before opening it. ¡°Are you sure that you want to resume your studies?¡± Reva asked. ¡°Yes!!¡± Ethlyn nodded her head. ¡°I don¡¯t want to be a warrior, so it will be better that I will do something that I like instead of staying useless.¡± She mumbled with a frown and also because she wanted to make her father proud. ¡°All the best then!!¡± ¡°Yeah! Thanks.¡± ¡°How is Cinder? ¡°I don¡¯t know. I can¡¯t feel her. Caroline has done something to her. Maybe has sent her into a deep sleep just to hide this scam from Calvin because she is connected to Keanu, and the witch¡¯s magic doesn¡¯t work t that extent.¡± Ethlyn replied. ¡°That reminds me, what happened to that witch, Chloe?¡± ¡°She is in the dungeon. Alpha announced that you would decide her final punishment because it was her, because of which you went into Alpha Calvin¡¯s room and because of which everything happened. And Guess what? Whose was behind this? The one and only Elena.¡± ¡°That witch also confessed that she had sent you into Alpha Calvin¡¯s room, thinking of Calvin as some mere warrior of the Blood Moon Pack. Because that is what he had told Isabe West, the same woman with which he was going to spend his night.¡± ¡°Ohhh!! Is that woman, Isabe West, beautiful?¡± Ethlyn asked in a low tone. ¡°Seriously? Out of everything, you heard only that part?¡± Reva asked in amusement. ¡°By the way, yes, she is sexy. I had seen her even in person with Nathan when you were in aa back then. I don¡¯t know what they were talking about, so I won¡¯t create any story on my own.¡± ¡°In that way, how much will you rate her in terms of sexiness out of five?¡± Ethlyn questioned, ignoring the fact that Reva had seen her with Nathan because it didn¡¯t matter to her now. ¡°Are you feeling insecure with the thought that a woman like her might catch Alpha Calvin¡¯s attention?¡± Reva teased. ¡°It¡¯s¡­ It¡¯s not like..¡± She couldn¡¯t get a chance toplete the word when Lemieux knocked on the door. ¡°Hello Beta Female!!¡± he greeted Reva when he walked in with a bouquet of white lilies. ¡°Hello, Ms. Smith.¡± He greeted Ethlyn so as not to confuse her with LUNA things. ¡°Hi, Lemi, What brings you here?¡± Reva asked, eyeing the red roses. ¡°Umm¡­ I¡­¡± Lemieux reached near Ethlyn. ¡°These are for you, BUT these aren¡¯t from me.¡± he quickly added when Ethlyn raised her eyebrow. ¡°There is a card in it. You can check the name over there.¡± He said. ¡°Thank you, Lemi,¡± Ethlyn replied. Lemieux smiled and left from there. Just a momentter, a nurse came inside with a basket of fresh apples. ¡°These are for you, Ms. Smith.¡± She said with a smile, and after a while, she, too, left the room. Reva quickly snatched lilies from Ethlyn¡¯s hand to read what was written on the card. ¡®Get well soon.¡¯ ¡°There is no one¡¯s name on the card.¡± Reva pointed out. ¡°Because he knows that I will get to recognize the sender of my favorite flower and fruit even if he wouldn¡¯t tell me.¡± Ethlyn smiled and snatched her flower from Reva¡¯s hand and inhaled its fragrances. That was when Reva realized why Calvin was asking about Ethlyn¡¯s likes and dislikes.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡®Should I tell her what had happened today? Nope, let¡¯s keep that as a surprise for her.¡¯ Reva talked with herself. ¡®I¡¯m going to murder Zordy, now. He never gave my favorite flowers to me.¡¯ * #TBC 135 Ethlyn couldn¡¯t control a stupid smile from appearing on her lips whenever her eyes used tond on the flowers. At night, she gasped when she saw her favorite dish on her te. She wasn¡¯t interested in eating boring hospital food. She didn¡¯t wait for a second and tasted her favorite Sushi. And the moment her tastebud hit an amazing vor, she recognized who had cooked it.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. And the fact that Calvin had cooked it for her was more like a shock to her. She couldn¡¯t understand what he was up to. And from where he came to know about it? She kicked all those thoughts away and enjoyed her meal. * On the other side, Calvin smiled after knowing that Ethlyn enjoyed her meal. He had heard somewhere that the way to the heart was through the stomach. So, he used it that way, and at the same time, he was positive that somewhere¡­ a tiny part of his mind would recognize the taste of the food that he had prepared because she loved food cooked by him even though she never admitted on her own but the continuous moan while having breakfast had told him everything. ¡°Dadddddyyyy¡± ¡°Yes, love.¡± ¡°I have to confess something,¡± Roselet spoke, munching the Sushi in her dinner. ¡°Hmm. Go ahead.¡± Calvin said, having his dinner with her. ¡°Therecanbeachancethatmommycangetpregnant.¡± Roselet spoke in one go. Calvin narrowed his eyes and broke onerge sentence that she spoke in one breath, ¡®There can be a chance that mommy can get pregnant.¡¯ ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± She whispered, looking everywhere except looking at him. Calvin smiled and pinched her cheek, ¡°Don¡¯t be sorry because your mommy is not going to get pregnant.¡± ¡°Not going to get pregnant?¡± Roselet asked in surprise. ¡°But I had changed that medicine.¡± ¡°And do you really think that your daddy is that stupid?¡± Calvinughed, messing with her hair. ¡°I have crossed your age twenty-seven years back, princess. I had given the right pills to your mommy along with the one which you had given to me. That was also good medicine, by the way. It helps Ethlyn to heal quickly.¡± Calvin said and winked at the end. ¡°I haven¡¯t given birth to you, love. But I definitely know what you think?¡± ¡°When you knew everything, then why didn¡¯t you scold me then?¡± Roselet asked in a low tone. ¡°I didn¡¯t scold you because I love my baby girl a lot,¡± Calvin said, pinching her cheek again. ¡°You didn¡¯t even make me realize that you already know everything.¡± ¡°Well, that¡¯s the trick. Sometimes you have to act in the way the other person wants to surprise them with your move. It¡¯s a lesson. Keep it in your mind so that you can use it in the future.¡± ¡°Sure, Calvin.¡± ****** ¡°Hello, Nathan!!¡± ¡°Elena? Why have you called me?¡± Nathan asked, getting annoyed with this woman. He couldn¡¯t believe that he had once loved her. He came to know from Christian Smith, Ethlyn¡¯s father that what she had done in his life and how she had actually messed it up a big time. He cursed that moment when he decided to be with her that night. Though he had ended his rtionship with her aftering together with Ethlyn but that night, he just couldn¡¯t control himself from talking to her and checking on her to see how she was doing for onest time when Ethlyn wasn¡¯t by his side. And it cost him the most precious things in his life. Not just that he ended up cheating on his mate, but also his fated mate ended up sleeping with someone who was not him. ¡°To apologize to you,¡± Elena spoke, to which Nathan scoffed. Anger was clear in his voice. Not just was he mad at her but also at himself for not trusting Ethlyn when she kept saying that the pup was his. He should have trusted her that she couldn¡¯t have cheated on him. Even recently, when she mentioned getting trapped in all this but he again trusted her and brushed that topic away. ¡°Your apology is five yearste, Elena. And your apology can¡¯t bring my mate back into my life. You intentionally nned all this, didn¡¯t you? And I¡¯m sure you have called me because of some motive; otherwise, there is no way you would want to get in touch with me, knowing very well how much I wanted to kill you.¡± ¡°I¡¯m really very sorry, Nathan. I really am.¡± Elena apologized on which Nathan rolled his eyes at her fake words. ¡°That¡¯s why I called to you to tell you that Moon Goddess gave created a chance because of which you can have your mate back.¡± ¡°Listen, Elena, I love her, but that doesn¡¯t mean I will stoop that low where I will n and plot to separate Ethlyn from her daughter,¡± Nathan growled in anger. ¡°What if her daughter wants Ethlyn to choose whomever she wants? What if Ethlyn had forgotten about having a daughter? What if Ethlyn doesn¡¯t have any memories of anything that happened to her? Perfect chance, right?¡± ¡°What do you mean?¡± ¡°I mean¡­.¡± Elena told Nathan about Ethlyn¡¯s amnesia and how she had no memory of her life after her seventeen birthday. Not just that, she also informed Nathan that no one was trying to remind Ethlyn about her horrible past, which she went through. ¡°This can be a perfect chance for you to have your mate back because back then, Ethlyn had a crush on you, and she liked you a lot.¡± ¡°How do you know about all this? Nathan asked. ¡°Because someone inside the pack is my well-wisher. Anyways, that¡¯s not the point of discussion. I have given you the suggestion; following it, or NOT is your choice.¡± Saying this, Elena disconnected the call and broke the Simcard only to throw it away. ¡®I will never let you stay happy, Ethlyn. NEVER. You just can¡¯t have the best always. I won¡¯t let that have.¡¯ She swore in her heart. * Ethlyn was about to sleep when she saw something in the basket of apples. She leaned toward it and grabbed the paper in it. ¡®Maybe I didn¡¯t love you Quite as often as I could have And maybe I didn¡¯t treat you Quite as good as I should have If I made you feel second best Girl, I¡¯m sorry I was an idiot.¡¯ Ethlyn¡¯s heartbeat rose after reading this. She kept reading it again and again with a big smile on her lips. By now, she knew that Calvin had asked Liara to make her stay in the hospital for fake treatment. To be honest, she hated staying here. It reminded her how she ended up missing her daughter¡¯s childhood by staying in the hospital. But this time, if staying in the hospital meant getting a chance to see this side of Calvin, then she would stay her whole life here. ¡®He told me that he will be back again.¡¯ She thought. ¡®Maybe he would have got busy with our daughter.¡¯ Ethlyn didn¡¯t realize when she ended up falling asleep while she was waiting for Calvin. When Calvin walked into her room, he mentally cursed himself foringte, but then he wasn¡¯t sure how she would have reacted after finding him again and again in her room. ¡°Sorry, Our daughter took my time tonight, OR I was thinking ofing here sooner.¡± He whispered, looking at her sleeping figure. ¡°Sorry reminds me that I have to apologize to you for multiple reasons and for multiple numbers of times.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry that we fought and argued. I¡¯m sorry for all the trouble that ensued. I¡¯m sorry I took you for granted. I promise it wasn¡¯t what I had intended. I¡¯m sorry I made you feel so bad. Forgive me, kitten; I swear I¡¯m going mad!!¡± He apologized again in a low tone. He wanted to lean toward her and steal a kiss, but he was scared that if he would get caught, then his image would be tarnished in front of her AGAIN. . #TBC 136 Ethlyn kept smiling ear to ear by reading all the notes that she had received, either through choctes, fruits, flowers, or something else. ¡®Chocte says ¡®I¡¯m sorry¡¯ so much better than words.¡¯ * ¡®I¡¯m sorry for my awful behavior! I will not act that way again.¡¯ * ¡®Remember, we all stumble, every one of us. That¡¯s why it¡¯s afort to go hand in hand.¡¯ * ¡®One of the hardest things in life is having words in your heart that you can¡¯t utter.¡¯ * ¡®Forgive me. Forgive this fool. Sorry that I acted so cruelly. Take my hand, and let¡¯s start anew.¡¯ * It had been three days since all this started, and she wouldn¡¯t deny the fact that she was melted already. Every day Calvin used toe to see her, but by keeping a stone in her heart, she was acting like an utter bitch by hurting him by talking about Nathan in front of him or keep saying how much she missed him. Why? Because Caroline assured her that if she would keep doing this, then Calvin would be begging her to mark him, etc., etc. ¡®I don¡¯t think I can do this act anymore.¡¯ She thought. ¡®I don¡¯t want him to beg in front of me. I¡¯m okay with these cute and lovely notes. Also, what matters the most is that he is guilty and sorry for what he did to me, right?¡¯ After thinking a lot, Ethlyn finally decided to end this whole drama today. She would tell him that she did all this because she was mad at him, but not anymore. ¡®But what if he would start showing his attitude again?¡¯ ¡®Then I will punch him again if needed.¡¯ She replied to the question that she asked on her own. At the same time, her morning breakfast was there with a note that Ethlyn was looking for. * ¡®I know you¡¯re still there. I know you¡¯re still mad at me. Take your time, don¡¯t worry. I will wait forever if that is what it will take for you to forgive me.¡¯ Her eyes moistened after reading this. ¡®You¡¯re already forgiven, Alpha Calvin.¡¯ She spoke to herself in her mind and looked at Lemieux, who was there with flowers again. ¡°Thank you, Lemi.¡± She mumbled, taking the flowers from him, ¡°Umm.. mm where is your Alpha?¡± She asked. ¡°Alpha just left for his office in the human world,¡± Lemieux replied. ¡°If there is something important, then I can mind link him,¡± he suggested and really hoped that whatever conversation Ethlyn was going to have with his Alpha would go well. Because both Zordan and he were Calvin¡¯s close friends, so they knew how their conversation usually used to start with a simple talk and used to end with an argument. ¡°No. It¡¯s fine.¡± Ethlyn quickly stopped him. She was aware that Calvin hadn¡¯t visited his office in the human world for a long time. Thest she remembered of him going to his office was also the day when he had marked her. It was also the day when she was kidnapped by the pack members so that they could give her to the hunters. The simple memory gave goosebumps all over her body. ¡°Once Alpha is back. I will let him know that you were asking for him.¡± He said before leaving the room. Ethlyn looked at the time. It was still morning. Since he went back to work, there was no chance he would return back early. Sadly, she looked at the food again. Just like on other days, it was her favorite dish. She came to know from Reva the other day how Calvin practically threatened Reva to tell each and everything about her. Not just that, he also made a note of all those things. At first, this might sound childish to maintain a note of everything that the other person likes or dislikes, but when the same other person starts receiving gifts and surprises rted to these things. She or He couldn¡¯t help but feel blessed and lucky that someone was there in their life who noticed and cared about each and everything that was rted to them. Ethlyn leaned forward to have her breakfast, but all of a sudden, she moved away when she inhaled the scent of fish. She felt like she would throw up any moment with that smell, but somehow she controlled herself from doing so. After a while, when she finally felt a little good. She started having her breakfast. The taste of the breakfast was fine, but still, she was getting the smell of the disgusting scent. Even though she was feeling hungry, she couldn¡¯t finish her breakfast.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. She then started reading books to kill time, but the next moment, she jumped out of bed and ran toward the washroom, only to throw up everything that she had had a moment before. She took time to clean herself properly and then washed her face. While washing her face, her mind kept thinking about the sudden change in her mood and how she ended up throwing up. Immediately something struck her, and her eyes widened in shock. She looked at her face in the mirror in horror. ¡®No! No! No! That¡¯s not possible. I had pills after both nights with Calvin.¡¯ She shook her head, denying the possibility of bing pregnant. She counted the number of days that had been since she had had sex with him, and unfortunately, it wasn¡¯t even ten days. A werewolf could find out about her pregnancy within seven to ten days. ¡®Did pills didn¡¯t work out?¡¯ She questioned, but she had no answer about it. She sat on the toilet seat and recalled whether she had pills on both days or not. And the answer was positive. On the first day, she had two pills, the first one to heal her, and the second one was concentration pills. And on the second day, she had concentration pills before going to Caroline¡¯s room. She would sue thatpany for sure if she would get pregnant. . #TBC 137 At the same time, she was worried as well. She recalled Calvin¡¯s words. ¡®Don¡¯t forget to take this pill after breakfast. I don¡¯t want any pup because of what happenedst night.¡¯ Her blood ran cold thinking that. At first, she had to make sure that what she was thinking was right or not instead of panicking and sitting on the toilet seat. ¡°Ethlyn?¡± Ethlyn sneered at the owner of the voice and walked out of the washroom, only to get shocked when she saw Nathan in her room. How the hell did hend here? Who even let hime inside? ¡°Thank Moon Goddess!! You¡¯re all right.¡± Saying this, he came near her to hug her, but Ethlyn moved back, not even letting him touch her. ¡°Howe you¡¯re here?¡± She questioned and really hoped that Caroline wouldn¡¯t have called him here to add spices and chilies to the drama that she had started making a few days ago. But still, Calvin wouldn¡¯t let him enter the pack, would he? ¡°Alpha Calvin asked me toe here. He told me that you were asking about me all the time and also told me about your situation. So, I didn¡¯t waste a second and came running near you.¡± ¡°He did that?¡± Ethlyn asked in shock. She was a hard time believing this, but then as much as she knew that Calvin didn¡¯t want her anywhere around Nathan or vice-versa but at the same time, Nathan couldn¡¯t be here without his approval. ¡®Did he really give up on me?¡¯ Ethlyn wondered. There was no doubt that she made him feel that she wanted Nathan desperately. ¡®Or he asked Nathan toe here for her happiness? Moon Goddess, what was Alpha Calvin thinking?¡¯ ¡°Yes!!¡± Nathan nodded his head before continuing, ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Ethlyn¡­.¡± he paused and added, ¡°¡­. for everything.¡± Ethlyn looked into his eyes, and even though Cinder wasn¡¯t with her at that moment, she could say that Nathan was sincere with his words. Before she would have said something, he sniffed in the air. All of a sudden, her heartbeats rose, realizing what he was trying to smell. The fact that he was an Alpha, she knew that his ability to sense things were better than other ranked wolf, just like a Lycan had an ability of all the things better than any alpha. ¡°Your scent¡­ it is changing slowly. A very faint one.¡± Nathan pointed out, and a big smile appeared on his face when he realized that what did it mean? Soon, her change in scent would start getting stronger enough to make other wolves indicate, too, that she was pregnant. When Nathan told her this, Ethlyn couldn¡¯t understand how she should take this news because she wasn¡¯t positive that Calvin wanted any pups. To be honest, she too didn¡¯t want the same, but that too that pills or damn to Calvin¡¯s strong sperm that didn¡¯t die even at the effect of the pills. ¡°Congrattions, Ethlyn.¡± Nathan hugged her without notice. ¡°I¡¯m happy for both of us.¡± Hearing this, Ethlyn quickly pushed him away, ¡°Us? What do you mean by US here, Nathan?¡± ¡°I can see that you¡¯re shocked with this pregnancy because you couldn¡¯t recall how the hell you became pregnant and who could be the father of your pup because you don¡¯t know anything of your past.¡± Nathan said before asking, ¡°Well, who do you think is the father of your pup?¡± He asked happily, pointing his finger toward himself, while Ethlyn was taken aback after listening to his words. ¡°Obviously me. I don¡¯t know if Reva told you or not, but we have been together for a while now, and it¡¯s me who got you pregnant.¡± Ethlyn was so shocked to hear him that no one word came out of her mouth. She couldn¡¯t believe to what extent Nathan could reach. Back then, when she wasn¡¯t aware of the truth, she thought it was him who got her pregnant, but this time¡­ this time, she knew who was the father of her pup or pups if it would happen to be twins then. ¡°Oh my god¡­ I¡¯m so happy. You¡¯re pregnant. We¡¯re pregnant.!!¡± Nathan spoke and held her arms in happiness. Ethlyn was about to knock some sense in him. That was when they heard a loud, ear-piercing growl. ¡®Damn, the door was open. And Alpha Calvin had heard everything. Calvin marched toward Nathan.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Alpha Calvin¡­ Alpha!!!¡± Ethlyn tried to exin that what he had heard wasn¡¯t true. He raised his hand; Ethlyn closed her eyes in fear when she felt that Calvin would hit her but that never happened. Instead, his fistnded on Nathan¡¯s face, throwing him away from Ethlyn. ¡°How dare you?¡± Calvin growled and reached near Nathan; when Ethlyn felt that Calvin had moved away from her, she opened her eyes, and she wasn¡¯t at all surprised when Calvin punched Nathan again and again. ¡°Alpha, stop it!!¡± She screamed in horror when she felt that Calvin might kill him in anger. ¡°Alpha, please stop it!!¡± She tried to save Nathan from Calvin¡¯s anger. ¡°Alpha Calvin.¡± She cried when Nathan¡¯s nose started bleeding. ¡°Alpha, please leave Nathan; we both know that he is lying.¡± Ethlyn¡¯s words didn¡¯t stop Calvin from hitting Nathan. ¡°Calvinnn¡­ Keanuuu!!!¡± She finally called him by his name this time and pushed him away from Nathan. She stood in between them to keep Nathan safe from Calvin¡¯s anger. ¡°STOP IT. You know that it¡¯s not true, right?¡± She asked and really hoped him not to doubt her character. She had asked him once. ¡®I can¡¯t stoop that low and think about hurting someone else. You know me, right?¡¯ On which his response was, ¡®I doubt that I do.¡¯ ¡°I know what the truth is, but I don¡¯t understand why the hell you are so concerned about him. Does he really matter to you so much?¡± Calvin asked, clenching his fist. Ethlyn would have gotten mad at him for asking this question, but then wasn¡¯t she the one who made him think of him in that way? She made Calvin think in that way because she never told him how she felt about him. When Ethlyn didn¡¯t reply anything to him, Calvin spoke again, ¡°All this time, you had your memory. Still, you kept torturing me by calling his name in front of me.¡± Calvinined. ¡°I was a fool to think that you were taking revenge on me or trying to make me jealous because, congrats, that was working.¡± ¡°But I was wrong. I was so wrong.¡± Calvin said to which Ethlyn shook her head. ¡°That was your way to say that Nathan is the one whom you wan¡­¡± Ethlyn ced her palm on her mouth, shutting his mouth in the middle. ¡°Shut up! Will you?¡± She yelled at him. No one was giving her a chance to speak. ¡°Your intuition was right from the beginning. Yes, I was mad at you. Yes, there was nothing wrong with my memory. Yes, I was taking revenge on you. Yes, I was making you feel jealous. And I did all this because I love you, duffer.¡± . #TBC 138 Ethlyn immediately realized what she ended up speaking in all this mess, but she wasn¡¯t regretting it. It had bound to happen, right? Either this way or that way, she had to tell him. And what mattered the most was to clear the misunderstanding that she unintentionally created in his mind in the process of making him jealous. ¡°And I¡¯m not protecting Nathan right now because I¡¯m concerned for him. I¡¯m protecting him because I¡¯m concerned for you because I don¡¯t want him to do anything in anger which isn¡¯t required at all.¡± Ethlyn exined and removed her hand from her mouth. She waited for his response for a while, but it never came, maybe because he was still trying to absorb what he had just heard. Calvin wouldn¡¯t lie, but Ethlyn¡¯s confession made his knees weak. ¡®I love you, duffer.¡¯ The words circled in his head. So, he couldn¡¯t move or react; just simply stared at Ethlyn without even blinking his eyes. Ethlyn turned her head toward Nathan and spoke, ¡°I can¡¯t believe you, Nathan. Just because you came to know that I don¡¯t have my memory of my past, you stoop this low?¡± She asked in disgust. ¡°What the hell were you thinking? Taking advantage of my situation?¡± She asked again. ¡°Leave the pack after¡­ after treating your nose.¡± She added, pointing toward his nose, which was still bleeding. ¡°Damn, why are you standing? You should sit on the bed and lift your head up, throwing it backward.¡± She guided him by making him sit on her bed. She turned around to see whether Calvin was jealous because of this gesture, but it looked like he wasn¡¯t. ¡°Don¡¯t you think you should call the nurse or doctor, Alpha Calvin?¡± Nathan said in a sarcastic tone. Ethlyn really thought that Nathan was nning to die but what surprised her was Calvin¡¯s words. ¡°Why should I call them? Let me provide you the first aid on my own.¡± Calvin responded in a sarcastic way and searched for the first aid box that was kept in the room as it was mandatory to keep it in all the rooms of the hospital. Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened when Calvin started cleaning Nathan¡¯s injury. Like seriously? Was she dreaming? But she doubted that they would be this friendly. ¡°What am I missing?¡± She asked, looking at her past and present together in a friendly way. ¡°Alpha Calvin, you were so mad at him just a moment before, and now you are dressing him. Not just that, you also ignored what I just confessed.¡± She pointed out. Taking a deep breath, she asked in a low tone, ¡°Does¡­ does it matter nothing to you?¡± ¡®Please don¡¯t say ¡®NO¡¯ just for the sake of your EGO.¡¯ She mentally spoke. Calvin gave cotton to Nathan¡¯s hand so that he could help himself. ¡°What did you confess?¡± He asked with a poker face. ¡°I want to listen to it again.¡± Ethlyn narrowed her eyes and started thinking about whether she should confess her feelings in front of him again. He might mock her or make fun of her. ¡°I love you, DUFFER.¡± She repeated, stressing thest word. All of a sudden, she was in his arms; Calvin read her face before speaking, ¡°Did I ever tell you that you look super sexy when you¡¯re pissed?¡± ¡°Well, I kind of figured that out on my own.¡± She hissed. ¡°And if you¡¯re thinking that I will apologize to you for ying this game, then keep dreaming that won¡¯t happen. Because I¡¯m not at all sorry for what I did in the past few days.¡± ¡°Trust me; I¡¯m not expecting any type of apology from you because I know I behaved like an utter dick with you. So¡­ I know that I deserved that.¡± ¡°Then¡­¡± She couldn¡¯t get a chance toplete her words because Calvin kissed her passionately as he couldn¡¯t get a chance to do it in the past week or more than that. Ethlyn wanted to hear his feelings for her now, but she could wait for a while because, just like Calvin, she missed him too. And at that moment, she kissed him back. She started feeling Cinder¡¯s presence back in her mind. ¡®Witch¡¯s magic is strong but not stronger than mate bond and love. So, I can¡¯t Cinder away from her mate for longer. She will appear anytime if something triggers her.¡¯ She recalled Caroline¡¯s words. And just like she had mentioned, Cinder was already howling and jumping around in her mind because of happiness. Calvin broke the kiss when he sensed Cinder and looked at the ce where he had marked Ethlyn. His mark was back on her shoulder.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°I knew it. I knew that Caroline was using her power to mess with me.¡± Calvin pointed out that because all these days, he was spending a lot of time studying things, and his guts told him that Cinder¡¯s disappearance had something to do with the witch¡¯s spell. The first person where he reached was Chloe, who was in the dungeon, thinking she was behind all this. But she denied doing anything with anyone¡¯s wolf. And the second witch who was in the pack was his sister, who had the power to do this. ¡°She was in this n, wasn¡¯t she? And who else was in it?¡± He asked suspiciously. ¡°Umm.. mm. Everyone.¡± Ethlyn grinned. ¡°Everyone is our family except Colton.¡± She added. ¡°I guess I can¡¯t me anyone.¡± Saying this, he kissed her again. They closed their eyes and savored each other¡¯s vor. Their kiss was getting more intense with each passing second. Nathan wouldn¡¯t be surprised if they would start having sex over there. ¡°Ethlyn, Alpha Calvin hasn¡¯t responded to your feelings until now.¡± He reminded them to stop them from making him feel awkward. But his words didn¡¯t affect both of them. He couldn¡¯t believe that they were ignoring his presence, as if he wasn¡¯t at all there. ¡°Ethlyn is pregnant with my pup,¡± he said, on which Calvin couldn¡¯t help himself, and breaking the kiss, he growled at him. ¡°I swear, I will kill you if you will repeat the same thing again. This wasn¡¯t in the n.¡± Calvin growled in anger. ¡°n? What n?¡± Ethlyn asked in confusion. ¡°Well, this¡­ I mean, my lie and our conversation were all scripted and nned by Alpha Calvin.¡± Nathan replied, shrugging his shoulder. ¡°To know whether you have really lost your memory or are just acting and figured out that you were also ying with him.¡± He added. ¡°Even the punch? And the injury?¡± Ethlyn asked in disbelief. ¡°Umm¡­. yeah!! Those were for hurting you again and again. And for not standing for you whenever you needed me the most. For cheating on you. Though I did that only once, but I won¡¯t give it as an excuse. Cheating is cheating, and I guess ¡®I¡¯m sorry¡¯ is not enough for that.¡¯ ¡°Unbelievable,¡± Ethlyn muttered, shaking her head. She was having a hard time wrapping up this all¡­ everything that happened before was all scripted. ¡°Why the hell did you do that?¡± Ethlyn asked, hitting Calvin¡¯s arms. ¡°Well, to know the truth. To know what is going on in your mind. And to know your feelings,¡± Calvin replied, grinning. ¡°Well, what can I say? Two can y that game,¡± he added with a wink on which Ethlyn fumed, thinking how stupid she was to fall into his trap. ¡®Now, there is no way. He will tell his feelings.¡¯ She thought, and that was when she heard. ¡°Ethlyn, you deserve someone better and worthy because you¡­. you¡¯re selfless and an amazing person. You always put yourself first in case of any danger to all the people you know, or maybe you will do the same for a stranger, even though those people don¡¯t deserve your kindness, for example, your gold-digger friend Ashley, your mother, your dickhead ex¡­¡± ¡°Hey¡­ I¡¯m still here.¡± Nathanined. ¡°Or whether it¡¯s me.¡± Calvin continued. ¡°You deserve someone that worthy, who can have those amazing goodness just like you have inside you. You deserve someone who appreciates you even though you¡¯re useless.¡± Ethlyn giggled, hearing it, and kept staring at Calvin blinking her eyes with lots of love. ¡°Someone who will not tease or annoy you. Someone who won¡¯t make you cry. More importantly, Ethlyn, you deserve someone who is as good as you because¡­. well, you¡¯re very special, and I know I¡¯m not worth it.¡± ¡°Even after knowing all this, I wanted you to choose me. And the fact that you love me is like a dream thates true. That¡¯s why I was taking so much time to absorb this news. Ethlyn, I havepletely fallen for you. Everything you do, everything you say, everything you¡¯re. You¡¯re my second thought in the morning, but you¡¯re thest thought before I fall asleep, and you¡¯re almost every thought in between.¡± Ethlyn started crying after all this and hit his chest repeatedly. ¡°You could have said that ¡®I love you too.¡¯ What was the need of giving a speech on it?¡± Sheined while crying and then hugged him. Calvin hugged her back and smiled before teasing, ¡°Don¡¯t cry in jealousy. Just because Rose will always be my first thought in the morning.¡± Heughed when Ethlyn hit him again. . #TBC 139 Nathan watched them together, in each other¡¯s arms. He wouldn¡¯t lie, but the truth was it was hurting him to see Ethlyn moving on in her life. While he was still in the same ce where he was the day he rejected her. He wouldn¡¯t deny the fact that right then, if Ethlyn was confessing her love for someone else or was in someone else arms, then it was because of him. He recalled her words while rejecting her. ¡®Nathan, there is some misunderstanding for sure. Please don¡¯t take this in haste.¡¯ But he didn¡¯t listen to her, and the result was in front of his eyes. Only if he would have stayed with her that night and wouldn¡¯t have fallen into Elena¡¯s trap, then Ethlyn would have been still his. Or if he had handled the news of Ethlyn¡¯s pregnancy well and had discussed it with her, even in that case, the situation would have been different. A few days back when Elena contacted him for this brand new information and suggested the stupid idea of getting Ethlyn back in his life. Her idea was tempting, but the question was, until when? Until when would this lie live? A month? A year? A decade? Not more than that. And would he be able to stay happy by doing all this? Nope! He would have to spend all in tension that Ethlyn would get her memory and then¡­. Then she would choose her pup over everything, just like any other mother. He had already ruined his rtionship with Ethlyn because of his mistake; he still couldn¡¯t forgive himself for the death of her other pups. Thest thing he wanted to stoop low in his own eyes by creating any trouble in Ethlyn in any way. He took around three days to think about all pros and cons of everything. And at the end, he decided that he would go ahead with Elena¡¯s idea even though he wanted Ethlyn in his life. That was why he came here to meet with Calvin to warn him about Elena¡¯s move and her spy in the pack who was transferring all the news rted to Ethlyn to her. He wasn¡¯t sure whether Calvin would believe his words or not, but he had to try. ¡°Why are you helping me by telling me about this?¡± Calvin asked him when he heard Nathan¡¯s side of the story. ¡°As far as I can see, you have a chance to have Ethlyn by taking advantage of lying to her and fooling her.¡± ¡°But for how long, Alpha Calvin?¡± Nathan asked. ¡°Ethlyn doesn¡¯t hate me at this moment, but she will definitely hate me if I will do this to her. I know I had done a lot of things to her in the past, but we all learn, and we all grow.¡±Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. Calvin could see that the man sitting in front of him wasn¡¯t lying. He had run a background check on him, and surprisingly he didn¡¯t find anything bad about him except for the part that he once cheated on his mate, which was revealed recently; unlike Calvin, Nathan wasn¡¯t even a womanizer and was an amazing Alpha. Moreover, he himself approaches Calvin to tell him about Elena¡¯s n against Ethlyn. ¡°Thank you for your help, Alpha Nathan. I mean, I¡¯m really d that you came here to inform me about it. To be honest, I wasn¡¯t expecting that from you but then again¡­ people changes along with time, and yes, we all learn, we all grow.¡± Calvin appreciated Nathan¡¯s favor. ¡°By the way, I need two favors from you.¡± ¡°Favors? What favors?¡± Nathan asked in confusion. ¡°One, I need a sketch of Elena because I guess no one knows how she looks except you and Ethlyn¡¯s mother, who is obviously more into protecting her pup from me, and another one is that I need to know whether Ethlyn has really lost her memory or is taking revenge on me.¡± **** ¡°By the way, how could you get pregnant?¡± Nathan heard Calvin asking this question. He really felt that he should leave instead of hearing this conversation. He didn¡¯t want to use his mind to think about why Calvin asked this question. Wasn¡¯t it obvious that a woman gets pregnant after having sex or making love, or after getting fucked? He shook his head, imagining anything in his mind. All he could hope was that Calvin wouldn¡¯t end up repeating the same mistake that he did by doubting her character because Ethlyn was an amazing woman, and there was no doubt of that. Thinking about all this, he left from there. ¡°Since when do you know about pregnancy?¡± Ethlyn asked in a low tone. ¡°I learned about your pregnancy when Nathan spoke about it. I mean, the n was to make you believe that Nathan was taking advantage of memory loss so that you would end up confessing the truth, but I lost my control when he used your pregnancy as a way to make you believe that you¡¯re pregnant with his pup.¡± He responded before cursing Nathan, ¡°Cheeky Bastard.¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know. Maybe because pills didn¡¯t work out.¡± Ethlyn mumbled, still hugging him. She wasn¡¯t sure that she wanted to keep the pup. ¡°What are we going to do now about it?¡± ¡°Let¡¯s take our time and think about it. But one thing that I¡¯m positive about is that Rose is going to be super-duper happy with this news.¡± ¡°Rose,¡± Ethlyn said and broke the hug, looking at Calvin. ¡°Mentioned of Rose, I remembered that I wanted to meet that witch, Chloe.¡± She added. . #TBC 140 ¡°I have kept her in the dungeon just for you so that you can punish her.¡± Calvin said nonchntly, but something struck his mind at the same time, ¡°You won¡¯t punish her, will you?¡± He asked, knowing what kind of Ethlyn was. ¡°Please let me take that decision on my own,¡± Ethlyn responded to his words softly. ¡°By the way, don¡¯t you have to go to the office? Lemi told me that you left for the office already.¡±Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. ¡°Well, I had but returned as soon as possible when guards informed me about Alpha Nathan¡¯s arrival. I just couldn¡¯t make him stay outside all the time; neither I wanted him to meet you when you were alone.¡± Calvin said and looked at the time, ¡°Seems like I¡¯mte again.¡± He added on which Ethlyn chuckled. . ¡°Hey!!¡± Ethlyn spoke to Chloe, who was in a dungeon decorated with lobelia flowers. Chloe red at her because it was Ethlyn, because of which she barely had hair on her head. ¡°Lemi,¡± She said, pointing toward the door to open it. Lemieux did the same. ¡°You can leave,¡± Ethlyn said when she watched Chloe not moving an inch from her ce. ¡°I can?¡± Chloe asked in surprise, more like a shock. ¡°Yes!! Please be quick. We don¡¯t have the whole day.¡± She spoke, and that was when Chloe finally stood up on her feet from the ground and walked out of the cell. She couldn¡¯t understand Ethlyn¡¯s behavior at all. Why was she asking her to leave? Was she nning to kill her or anything? ¡°I will suggest you not to help Elena if she will n anything against me again,¡± Ethlyn spoke once Chloe was out of the cell. ¡°Because next time, I don¡¯t think I can convince Calvin to spare your life.¡± ¡°Then why did you convince him to let me leave this time?¡± Chloe asked, narrowing her eyes. ¡°Because no one matters how much trouble you have brought into my life, Chloe. I can¡¯t change the fact that the biggest treasure of my life is because of you. My daughter and now a loving partner as well. That¡¯s why I¡¯m forgiving you and will really pray to the Moon Goddess that she will fill some sense in you.¡± Ethlyn said calmly. ¡°I came to know from Calvin how you took all the torture but didn¡¯t open your mouth for Elena. I must say, she is lucky to have a loyal friend like you, but a good friend also prohibits the other from doing something that¡¯s not right.¡± ¡°Please don¡¯t think I¡¯m poisoning your mind against Elena. It¡¯s just that that¡¯s how friendship works.¡± Ethlyn added with a smile. ***** ¡°Long time, Tessa!!¡± Calvin winked, looking at Tessa Bale and James Waititi. ¡°Good Morning, Mr. Waititi.¡± ¡°You¡¯re againte, Mr. Haysbert.¡± James Waititiined. ¡°Well, you see, I¡¯ve been running busy sincest week because the hunters ended up shooting the mother of my pup in order to kill me,¡± Calvin said bluntly, looking at both of them with a big sly smile on his face. ¡°What are you talking about, Calvin?¡± Tessaughed to ease the atmosphere, but when she watched that, Calvin¡¯s expression didn¡¯t change at all. She stopped smiling and red at Calvin. ¡°So, you now know.¡± ¡°Seems so!!¡± Calvin replied, cing her hand on the table. ¡°To be honest, I was shocked to learn that the main leader of the hunter is actually a woman who is older than my mother of her age.¡± He chuckled and looked at James Waititi. ¡°James Waititi, a distance cousin of Tessa Bale and also a hunter.¡± ¡°You took that dialogue too seriously, keep your friends close and enemies closer. If that little war wouldn¡¯t happen that day, then you were nning to kill me by poisoning me during the dinner, weren¡¯t you?¡± ¡°You can¡¯t me us for that, can you? That she-wolf broke the rule bying into ournd and also killed my son.¡± Tessa Bale hissed in anger. ¡°The worst part is that you¡¯re saving her with your life.¡± ¡°And I will. Did you forget that you all killed innocent pups of my pack brutally?¡± Calvin said in determination. ¡°That¡¯s a different thing that we did the same with all the hunters that fought with us, making sure that no one could survive who were there against us.¡± ¡°And now that your identity is revealed, I will suggest you to back off, or I will ruin your lives along with all other family members in such a way that you all won¡¯t be able to survive in the human world. And Mark my word about that.¡± he threatened. He mentally thanked David Fincher again, who brought this news to him. ¡°Do you want to see the live demo? That what I can do?¡± Calvin asked, and without waiting for their answer, he grabbed a lighter and turned it on, and all of a sudden, a hideous demon appeared in front of them from the fire. ¡°Meet my one of the brothers-inw, Samuel, prince of hell, whose element is fire. He will make sure that you all will burn in the fire of hell here on earth.¡± Calvin showed offed, on which Samuel smirked. Tessa and James quickly left the chair where they were sitting because they felt that chair was burning their buttock. ¡°You better not mess with us, humans.¡± Samuel hissed before disappearing along with the fire. Calvin grinned and offered, ¡°Now, let¡¯s discuss the story of the uing movie if you want or can leave; it¡¯s all your wish.¡± . #TBC 141 ¡°That mutt.¡± James Waititi hissed, reaching the hotel where they had hidden. Apparently, Calvin knew where they were staying. ¡°He not just knows about us, but he is also keeping an eye on us,¡± he added, tossing his phone away. ¡°What now, sister?¡± He asked, looking at her cousin, who looked extremely angry but was thinking something at the same time. ¡°Tess? Did you hear me?¡± He checked on her again. ¡°Have you heard that you do not insult the mouth of the crocodile while your foot is still in the water? I¡¯m not very pleased to admit this, James, but right now, that mutt is that crocodile in this case.¡± She said, epting the defeat because that was the bitter truth. All Tessa Bale was thinking was how Ethlyn entered theirnd, killed her son, and then that stupid Alpha was supporting her. Why? Because she was the mother of his pup. She wasn¡¯t looking at the part about how mercilessly she had killed those innocent seven pups. She wanted revenge, but her hands were tight, and she knew if she would do anything against them, then she, along with all her family members, would be five feet under the ground. So, it would be better if she would take a few steps back for now. ¡°Does that mean that we will leave him or his pack members just like that? Those dogs killed 80% of our members, and those who are left are either mostly women or kids.¡± ¡°Then we have to wait until those kids would be ready to avenge the death of their family members. Let¡¯s poison their mind from now onwards so that when they would grow up with hatred in their heart and the thought of killing those mutts no matter what.¡± ¡°That will take years.¡± James Waititi pointed out in frustration. ¡°Rome wasn¡¯t built in a day either. But they wereying bricks every hour. You don¡¯t have to build everything you want today; justy a brick, James. I hope you are getting what I¡¯m trying to exin.¡± Tessa said, folding her arms around her chest in determination. ¡°Yes, I get it.¡± ¡®I will be back, Calvin Haysbert. I will be back when you will think that all your problems have been solved. I will be back at that moment.¡¯ Tessa Bale talked with herself. At that moment, she didn¡¯t have any other choice other than to wait until she would have the upper hand. * [A/N: The part of hunters in this story ends here. Their part will continue further in the story of Roselet and Hunter; I¡¯m sure a lot of readers would have guessed that part already. And no, I¡¯m not going to write Roselet right away. I will finish the story of all the elders first. That¡¯s the most asked question from the readers.] * ¡°Don¡¯t you think that you shouldn¡¯t have let them go?¡± Zordan asked when he heard that Calvin just scared those hunters, nothing else. ¡°What else do you want me to do, Zordy? Hmm. To kill everyone except the pups of those hunters? Do you want me to make those pups orphans? I can¡¯t do that.¡± Calvin said, shaking his head. ¡°That would be so cruel. I have just warned them so that it would be now in their hand how they¡¯re going to shape their future.¡± ¡°Ah. I can already see that the pups whom you¡¯re leaving alive just because they¡¯re too young will be the ones who will try to kill us tomorrow.¡± Zordan sighed. ¡°We will be prepared for that then. And I promise that I wouldn¡¯t mind killing those pups when they would grow older. We are enemies, and this enmity won¡¯t end ever¡­ ever¡­ ever¡­ because the leader of hunters is not interested in doing that.¡± Calvin said, shaking his head. ¡°What if the next leader would want to end this all mess?¡± Zordan questioned. ¡°Anyone raised by that woman couldn¡¯t be less evil than Tessa Bale. She killed those innocent pups mercilessly for nothing. Rose will be the next leader of the pack, so I¡¯ll make sure that she will be ready to cut the head of the next leader of the hunters when the timees.¡± * Nathan was watching pups ying together on the ground, running from here and there. He couldn¡¯t help but smile looking at them. He was nning to leave in the morning itself, but Sophia Haysbert suggested staying in the pack for a day for some rest because he had covered a journey of near about eight hours to reach here. So, he was practically free in Calvin¡¯s pack. That was why he was sitting on the ground and watching pups ying. ¡°Hey!!¡± He raised his head and saw Tiara Haysbert. ¡°Mom send this for you.¡± Saying this, she had a cup of coffee with him. ¡°Thanks.¡± He said, taking it from her. Tiara sat beside him with her cup of coffee. ¡°So, what are you celebrating tonight? Mrs. Haysbert said that she is throwing a small dinner tonight.¡± He asked, sipping his coffee. ¡°There are practically three things to celebrate,¡± Tiara replied. ¡°First, Calvin and Ethlyn are finally not fighting,¡± Hearing this, Nathan chuckled. ¡°Second that we found the gender of Lee¡¯s pup. She is going to have a boy.¡± ¡°That¡¯s great.¡± ¡°But dad is ming Theodore that he didn¡¯t try harder. Otherwise, Lee would have been pregnant with twins.¡± Tiara chuckled. ¡°But¡­¡± ¡°I know, that¡¯s stupid. But that¡¯s dad. He wants a lot of grandchildren.¡± Tiara said, cutting him in between. ¡°And third is Ethlyn¡¯s pregnancy, but she doesn¡¯t look very much happy with that news. Let¡¯s see what the couples decide.¡± ¡°Hmm.¡± He nodded his head while looking at two boys of around four to five years and a toddler. The older boy was helping his younger brother to walk. ¡°I think you should also think of moving on,¡± Tiara spoke, watching where Nathan was looking. ¡°If you¡¯re not nning to stay alone or are married to your work.¡± ¡°No one wants to stay alone. At least, I¡¯m not one of them.¡± Nathan replied, looking at Tiara. ¡°But at the same, I¡¯m not ready for any woman.¡± ¡°That I can see already. You¡¯re interested in pups, aren¡¯t you?¡± Tiara asked. ¡°I came to know about your problem. I mean, I heard how you had used her that the pup in her womb wasn¡¯t yours and the also fact that you couldn¡¯t be a father.¡± ¡°You can go for adoption if you want,¡± Tiara suggested. ¡°And the best part is the pups you¡¯re looking at orphans.¡± ¡°What?¡± Nathan finally turned his head toward Tiara in shock. ¡°They are Damian¡¯s pups. Both Damian and his mate couldn¡¯t make it to the war. I don¡¯t know whether you know him or not, but he was the delta of the pack.¡± ¡°I¡­ I knew him, not personally, but he came to my pack with Rose and Zordan before.¡± Nathan spoke and felt bad for those pups. He watched the younger one walking slowly toward his older brother. But he fell down and started crying. ¡°Excuse me!!¡± he excused himself from there and reached near them, especially near the one who was crying. * A momentter!! Ethlyn walked out of the pack house to get Roselet because she had been ying for hours now. And that was when her eyesnded on Nathan, who was encouraging a toddler to walk with a boy of Roselet¡¯s age. They were hooting, cheering, and pping together while there was a big smile on that toddler¡¯s face. He took a couple of steps and was about to fall when Nathan caught him and carried him in his arms, bothughing and enjoying. Nathan leaned and then carried the older pup as well after a few seconds in his other arms. She smiled, looking at this. She hadn¡¯t seen Nathan genuinely happy for a while; either he used to keep himself busy with work or overthinking things that happened in the past. ¡®I missed these moments with Roselet. Maybe this is my chance to enjoy those moments with this pup?¡¯ She thought mentally and kept her hand on her stomach. . #TBC . A/N: A couple of you recognized Samuel as Charlotte¡¯s partner. I don¡¯t know when I will resume that story. As per my n, the next story will be of Liara, then Tiara, then Colton, then Santino, then Cornell¡¯s series (3 stories are pending out of 6.) Then Weasley¡¯s series.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org. Well, my mind is packed till 2023 end, I guess. 142 ¡°We have just confessed our feelings for one another and¡­ and this pup popped up. I want to enjoy some time with you, enjoy some moments with just us. So, I was thinking of not keeping this pup. What do you say?¡± Calvin suggested, on which Ethlyn¡¯s stomach sank. She was thinking of keeping this pup. ¡°And not to forget that you are also thinking of resuming of studies, aren¡¯t you? I observed you reading some book which was definitely not a romantic one.¡± Calvin joked and hugged Ethlyn behind her back. ¡°I missed you.¡± He mumbled, nting soft kisses on her neck. Ethlyn moaned under his touch. ¡°What happened? What¡¯s disturbing you?¡± ¡°Nothing.¡± Ethlyn shook her head. ¡°You sure?¡± Calvin asked again. ¡°Yeah!!¡± ¡°You can talk to me about it.¡± ¡°No. I¡¯m fine.¡± ¡°Okay,¡± Calvin shrugged his shoulder, and after giving a perk on his cheek, he went inside the washroom. He knew that something was going on in her mind, but he gave her some space instead of nagging her. At the same time, Ethlyn was confused about her decision to keep this pup or not. She wanted to talk about it with Calvin, but the fact that he didn¡¯t want this pup was disturbing her. They recently got together, and fighting and arguing with him was thest thing that she wanted. After freshening up, Calvin observed Ethlyn still struggling with something, so he didn¡¯t disturb her and started ying games in his mind. Half an hour passed, and Ethlyn noticed that Calvin was not at all interested in checking on her instead, he was busy with his mobile. She silently went where he was and peeked to see what he was watching with so much interest. ¡®He better not be watching porn or nude girls.¡¯ Cinder thought, and they fumed in anger, watching him PUBG. Calvin sensed her presence and looked at her, who was ring at him, crossing her hands around her chest. It was a treat to Calvin¡¯s eyes watching her breast, which was looking a little bigger right then. Ethlyn snapped her finger in front of his eyes, making him look into her eyes before speaking, ¡°You started ignoring me already?¡± ¡°Me? No. I was giv¡­.¡± ¡°You were. Since then, I¡¯ve been disturbed, but you don¡¯t care at all.¡± Ethlynined and snatched his phone from his hand, cutting Calvin in between. ¡°But. I asked you what happened, remember?¡± Calvin reminded her. ¡°Yes!! Just three times.¡± Calvin¡¯s eyes widened when Ethlyn said, ¡®JUST THREE TIMES.¡¯ How many times was he supposed to ask? ¡°After that, you didn¡¯t ask me anything and were busy with this stupid game,¡± Ethlynined. Calvin took a deep breath; he didn¡¯t want to fight with her. He made her sit on the bed before speaking, ¡°Okay. I¡¯m sorry. Tell me, why are you disturbed?¡± He asked softly. ¡°Now you¡¯re asking now when I mentioned it; otherwise, you don¡¯t care, do you?¡± ¡®Side effects of a rtionship.¡¯ Keanu joked, recalling Calvin¡¯s line about how he used tough at others when they used to get a hard time from their woman. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. Now, please tell me what is disturbing you?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to talk with you about it.¡± ¡°Okay. It¡¯s fine. You can talk with mom. I¡¯m sure she will help you out.¡± Calvin suggested and immediately bit his inner cheeks when he found Ethlyn ring at him again. ¡®Did I say anything wrong again?¡¯ ¡®Apparently so.¡¯ ¡®RUN,¡¯ His mind suggested to him. He gave her an innocent smile to her and quickly left from there, leaving his phone with Ethlyn. He needed a piece of expert advice to deal with this time of situation. **** ¡°There is one simple rule for a happy marriage,¡± Brandon said, on which Calvin, along with Artemis and Theodore, listened to him. ¡°If it¡¯s your mistake, then apologize to HER. And when it¡¯s not your mistake, then also apologize to her.¡± ¡°What?¡± Calvin shook his head in confusion, wondering what the hell was that while Artemisughed and Theodore smiled. ¡°That¡¯s what everyone says, buddy, ¡®A happy life is a happy life.''¡± Artemis guided him. ¡°The rtionship between husband and wife is very psychological. One is psycho, and the other one is logical. And to stay alive, don¡¯t try to figure out who is who.¡± ¡°Do your mates know that you are speaking all these things about them?¡± Everyone¡¯s eyes widened when they heard a new voice. They turned heads and found Roselet, the night owl of the home, wearing a long ck coat, a ck hat on her head, ck goggles, and magnifying ss in her hand. Seriously? She was ying James Bond in the house. And how did no one smell her? She walked toward them and looked for her seat, and when she didn¡¯t find any, she sat in Calvin¡¯sp. ¡°I need cash if you want me to shut my mouth.¡± She said, opening her goggles. ¡°Grandpa,¡± She looked at Brandon and showed her hand. He helplessly forwarded ten dors to her.Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Hundred,¡± Roselet said, not taking it from Brandon. ¡°Huh?¡± ¡°Do you want me to tell you about this conversation with Grandma?¡± She questioned, on which Brandon gave her a hundred dor note to her, and other men followed her. ¡°I¡¯m your father,¡± Calvin said, on which she shook her head and forwarded her hand toward him. Calvin, too, gave her a hundred-dor note to her. ¡°Wow. I started earning so early. All I had to use the perfume to hide my scent.¡± Roselet said, looking at the money that she had just earned. Calvin narrowed his eyes at her words. ¡°Now, Calvin, don¡¯t listen to them; they are just scaring you.¡± She spoke. ¡°Really?¡± Brandon asked. ¡°Yes!!¡± Roselet nodded her head. ¡°Grandma says that we girls are so simple. All you have to do is to love Mommy, and within seconds, she will melt down like a cube of ice.¡± She said. ¡°Well, I agree on that part.¡± ¡°Same here.¡± ¡°True.¡± ¡°Wow!!! You three are now agreeing with my daughter¡¯s suggestion. I should have reached near her for help instead ofing here.¡± Calvin frowned, watching how all males agreed with Roselet¡¯s words. ¡°Calvin, William Golding said that whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she will give you a baby. If you give her a house, she will give you a home. If you give her groceries, she will give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she will give you her heart. She multiples and erges whatever is given to her. So if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit!.¡± Roselet said like an old aunt in her fifty. ¡°Moreover, you and Mommy need a break. Break from all the things around. I heard Grandpa and Grandma¡¯s story; they went to Paris for a break, Uncle Arti and Aunt Caro went on a Spain tour, and Aunt Lee and Uncle Theo went to the Maldives. You should also take Mommy somewhere.¡± ¡°Wow! Why does that idea click my mind?¡± Calvin muttered. ¡°Do you know where she wants to go?¡± She asked. ¡°Yes!! I know. She wants to go Greece.¡± Calvin replied. ¡°Perfect then, we all three will go there once your school¡­¡± ¡°Not me!!¡± Roselet quickly said, cutting him in between. ¡°I will join you on the next trip. For now, you should spend a lot of time together and get to know each other well.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t worry about me. Grandpa and Grandma could stay here for me until you both will be back from your trip, right Grandpa?¡± Roselet asked, turning her head toward Brandon. ¡°Right.¡± ¡°See, problem solved,¡± Roselet said, shrugging her shoulder. ¡°Now, go, solve your fight with mommy.¡± She said, standing on her feet. ¡°You¡¯re the best thing that ever happened to me, love,¡± Calvin said, cupping her face and kissing her forehead. ¡°How about I go near your mommy after tucking in your bed?¡± he offered. ¡°I will.¡± Brandon said, ¡°Just like Rose suggested, you should go near Ethlyn.¡± * ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sorry.¡± Both Ethlyn and Calvin confessed to each other at the same time. But Calvin didn¡¯t get a chance to speak what he had to speak because Ethlyn ced her palm on his mouth. ¡°Let me speak first!!¡± ¡®Well, I can¡¯t speak in this position in anyways.¡¯ He thought. ¡°I shouldn¡¯t have behaved in that way. I was disturbed, and of course, how would you know about it until I would share about it.¡± She spoke and felt the tingle in her palm because Calvin was kissing her palm softly. A small smile appeared on her lips; she removed her hand from his mouth and kissed her palm at the same ce where he had kissed. Calvin smirked and wrapped his hand around her waist, ¡°So, why were you disturbed? Thinking about Elena?¡± ¡°Of course not. I know you will take care of her. It¡¯s just that I was confused about our other pup. I¡¯m not able to make mistakes whether I want to keep him or her or not.¡± ¡°Not an issue. We are going to Greece for two weeks. You will have enough time to think about him or her.¡± ¡°Greece?¡± ¡°Yes!! Because in case you or we n to keep the pup, then there is no way you can go anywhere. Moreover, my expert advised me to take a break from everything for a while.¡± ¡°Your expert?¡± Ethlyn asked in amusement, wrapping her arms around his neck. ¡°Who is he? Uncle Brandon.¡± ¡°Nope. Our Rose.¡± . #TBC 143 ¡°Bye, Mommy, Bye, daddy!! Have a lot of fun, and don¡¯t worry about me at all. And most importantly, bring something precious from there for me.¡± Roselet cried, waving her hand for one morest time when Calvin and Ethlyn walked toward the private jet. Both turned around and waved their hand toward their princess, who was a lot happier than they were with this trip. Roselet gave them a flying kiss and jumped, waving both her hand toward them. It was hard for her to live without Calvin for fourteen days straight, but she wasn¡¯t worried because she knew that someone would be there for Calvin to look after him. She had already told them the basic and first rule of the trip, ¡®Daddy has to take care of mommy & Mommy has to look after daddy¡¯ was her first rule. ¡®You both will try not to fight or kill each other in anger¡¯ was her second rule. It was a journey of around ten hours, so Calvin nned to travel at night and reach there by the morning after discussing it with Ethlyn that night. Ethlyn had thought to pack the necessary thing that she might in her Greece trip the very next day, but instead, Calvin took her to the hospital and got her full body check-up to make sure that everything was fine with her and their pup. And most importantly, to know what were the things that he needed to take care of, from food to any activity, especially sex, of course. Aftering from the hospital, Ethlyn thought to pack her belongings, but that was already taken care of by her sister inws. She didn¡¯t have admitted by then, but she felt really very lucky to have such amazing family members. * ¡°I don¡¯t know much about Rose¡¯s choices. Do help me in getting something very precious for her.¡± Ethlyn said, resting her head on his chest. She was preparing to sleep so that she could enjoy the fullest tomorrow. ¡°Sure,¡± Calvin said and kissed Ethlyn¡¯s hair. He knew very well what his daughter wanted to say by mentioning ¡®something precious.¡¯ She might have seen in movies that how two people go on a honeymoon and return back with good news. Roselet was his daughter, but she had gotten the intelligence from her Uncle Colton. Calvin hadn¡¯t forgotten how his brother had stolen their father¡¯s ck card from their mother¡¯s purse at the age of just Four years and had indirectly left a message to their dad about their existence. [If interested, you can read Billionaire¡¯s Ex-Wife & His Hidden Babies]. Not just that, he knowingly fell from the chair, so Sophia wouldn¡¯t be able to catch him. That was a different thing that he ended up hurting himself and had cried for a lot because of the pain. ¡°What happened?¡± Ethlyn asked when she observed Calvin lost. ¡°Nothing. I¡¯m thinking about Colton. I still haven¡¯t got a chance to apologize to him because his phone number is switched off, and as per his assistant, he is on his new mission. And no one knows where he is right now!!¡± ¡°Mission? What mission?¡± Ethlyn asked in confusion. ¡°What do you think my brother is, Ethlyn? Just a mere human?¡± Calvin asked with a chuckle. ¡°He is a supernatural hunter, chosen by the sword of the very first hunter in the whole world, who died at the age of thousand years old,¡± Calvin said to which Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened in shock. ¡°Moon Goddess, how on earth he left you alive after you said so much?¡± Ethlyn questioned in horror. ¡°Well, practice and meditation, you can say. He has been learning to control his anger for thest twelve years.¡± Calvin replied, ¡°I remembered the day very clearly when that sword had chosen him. It was my eighteen birthday, and I had shifted for the first time. Our lives had been changed by one eighty degrees that day. I wanted to be a human just like everyone had said one of us would be human, and Colton¡­ he wanted to be a werewolf.¡± ¡°To be honest, I wasn¡¯t happy with this decision of Moon Goddess, but Colton¡­ that was the first andst time when I had seen him devastated. To be a werewolf was like a dream to him; on the other side, all the pack members had given him the hope that he would be a werewolf all his life for sure because he was so smart.¡± ¡°I can¡¯t understand the pain that he would have felt then,¡± Ethlyn mumbled. ¡°He was so pissed at Moon Goddess that he vowed to wipe all her children, and since then¡­. Then he had been killing vampires or werewolves most of the time.¡± Calvin said, rubbing his temple. ¡°That¡¯s why I want our mate in his life to control the darkness within him; otherwise, he would kill everyone one day just like he killed grandpa Logan.¡± ¡°He what?¡±Text content ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Colton was about to kill dad in possession of the sword, and Grandpa Logan came in between to save dad.¡± Calvin¡¯s voice started getting heavy. ¡°Grandpa personally talked with him that she shouldn¡¯t me himself for all that happened because it was his choice, but since then, he started thinking of himself as a monster, and that night¡­. I reminded him of all those things by calling him a monster.¡± ¡°I really wish I could apologize to him, but I know I can¡¯t undo the damage that I had already done by speaking nonsense. He can forgive me easily, but what is the worst part that he won¡¯t forget.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t overthink, and let¡¯s hope that he will find his mate soon.¡± She said before adding, ¡± But before that, I have to mark you; otherwise, you will also run behind her like a lost puppy.¡± She added, hugging him tightly. Calvin chuckled and hugged her back. After a while, Ethlyn slept already, maybe because she was feeling tired because Calvin didn¡¯t let her sleep peacefullyst night. Unlike the other two previous nights, he was gentle yesterday because he was scared of her pregnancy. And for a record, he was having sex with a pregnant woman for the first time. ¡®Moon Goddess, Now I have started wondering whether our mate is alive or not?¡¯ Calvin asked in his mind. ¡®If she would have died before we would have found her, then Moon Goddess would have blessed us with another mate.¡¯ Keanu said, ¡®So, don¡¯t me her. Who knows if our mate is hiding from us? Or someone is hidden our mate from us?¡¯ ¡®Maybe.¡¯ Calvin thought and looked at the beauty in his arms. ***** #TBC 144 ¡°What? What are you doing?¡± Ethlyn asked, stopping Calvin from opening her clothes. They had barely closed the door of the suite which was booked for them. Since it was also a branch of Artemis Gosling¡¯s hotel, they got a suite even at thest moment. ¡°I want you.¡± He whispered in a husky voice. ¡°Now?¡± Ethlyn bit her lips shyly because it was morning time. That meant Calvin could see him clearly; until now, whenever they had sex, it was during the night. Obviously, he would have seen clearly even in the dark because of his supernatural eyesight. ¡°Don¡¯t tell me that you¡¯re here to feel shy.¡± Calvin teased and perked her lips, but Ethlyn grabbed his face and kissed him like no tomorrow. That was it. He was waiting for it. They both soon fell into steamy kisses, parting their mouths and dancing their tongues together. Calvin carried Ethlyn up, and she was quick to wrap her legs around his waist. They broke the kiss and smiled, resting their forehead against each other. ¡°I¡¯m turning shameless like you.¡± ¡°I bet you know my shamelessness.¡± Calvin grinned and returned to kissing her again, grabbing her at the back of her neck. In the next moment, he threw her on the mattress carefully. ¡°I so wanted to have you since night,¡± Calvin admitted shamelessly, climbing on top of her while Ethlyn¡¯s heart started pounding against her ribcage. ¡°How do I look?¡± He asked when he threw away the t-shirt that he was wearing. Ethlyn¡¯s ear burned at this question. ¡°Come on, Kitten, don¡¯t be shy. Tell me, how do I look?¡± ¡°You look hoooottt¡­ damn too hot,¡± Ethlyn said and blushed at her own words. Calvin grinned and started sensually touching her naked leg, slowly reaching her thighs only to remove the shorts and underwear, both the same times which she was wearing under a knee-length dress. Then he removed all her dress and looked at the siren in front of him. He smiled, looking at her red face, ¡°You¡¯re so beautiful, Ethlyn. I really wanted to have you under me the moment my eyesnded on you for the first time.¡± He said, while his three fingers reached toward her pussy. ¡°No doubt¡­¡± Ethlyn threw her head backward because of pleasure and, after biting her lips, ¡°¡­. I called you shameless for a reason.¡± In the next moment, Calvin started thrusting his fingers repeatedly, making her moan repeatedly. ¡°Now, who is moaning like a shameless person?¡± Calvin mocked. He was sitting near Ethlyn¡¯s legs, so Ethlyn raised her leg to kick him when he grabbed both her legs and leaned his face toward her pussy to give her much better service than what he was giving before. ¡°Ahhh¡­umm.. Mm, Calvin.. Ahh¡± Erotic moans like this kept escaping from her lips because Calvin was giving her the ultimate pleasure. Thought it wasn¡¯t the first tie, but every time, she used to feel like it was the first time. Soon, Calvin started moving his tongue faster than before, making Ethlyn cry in pleasure. She grabbed the sheet tightly with her hand and felt so good that she could exin it through her moans. That time wasn¡¯t far away when she came to a conclusion, and Calvin drank her juice as if it was his favorite one. While Ethlyn was breathing heavily, Calvin reached up to her and spoke, ¡°Let me know if you feel any type of pain, okay? I will stop. Our pup is more important than anything.¡± Ethlyn nodded her head with a smile. She couldn¡¯t help that how protective he was for their unborn pup since yesterday. Calvin covered her lips, caressing her breast and ying with her nipples between his fingers. They got engaged in a heated kiss again; while Calvin knew how to use his hands and his lips at the same time, he kept massaging and squeezing her breast while tasting more of her. Breaking the kiss, Calvin sat up to remove his denim shorts, and just like she had guessed, his manhood was standing proudly, ready to enter inside her. ¡®No doubt why I always face a hard time after sex. That¡¯s because his manhood is sooooo big. Bigger than Nathan, for sure.¡¯ She thought. ¡°Kitten, are you ready?¡± Calvin asked softly, rubbing the tips of his manhood with her clit. Ethlyn nodded her head and waited for the sudden pain but instead, Calvin was gentle with her and started entering it inside her slowly. She threw her head backward, trying to adjust his size. She mentally thanked him for not started fucking her right away. It would be a lie if she would say that she didn¡¯t like hard, fast and rough, but at the same time, sometimes gentle sex is what any woman wants to feel loved. ¡°Damn, you feel so good, Kitten,¡± he mumbled and gave her a passionate kiss before moving inside her gently. He watched Ethlyn¡¯s expression, which had a smile on her lips, and her eyes were closed; it might be she was enjoying the evening second of it. He kept perking and kissing her between the sex, making her feel special, making her feel loved. * #TBCConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . 145 After an hour!! Calvin was holding naked Ethlyn in his arms and was squeezing her ass to enjoy this moment. ¡°I love you, Kitten.¡± He mumbled, nting a kiss on her neck. Ethlyn turned around and kissed him before replying. ¡°I love you too.¡± She hugged him and closed her eyes, inhaling his scent. ¡°How will you react if I will say that I want to keep this pup?¡± ¡°I will celebrate, obviously, and this time, I don¡¯t have to raise the pup alone. And don¡¯t worry, I think you can manage both studies and pups together. If not, then, in that case, you can resume your studies from next year when our pup will be more than one year old.¡± ¡°And yes, how can we forget our Rose? She will definitely be the biggest helping hand in raising our other pup.¡± Calvin spoke, on which Ethlyn smiled. ¡°I was thinking, how about if we gift her the pictures of ultrasounds? I¡¯m sure her happiness will have no barrier after watching that. And it would also be something precious for her.¡± Ethlyn suggested. ¡°You won¡¯t believe me, but I was thinking the same thing,¡± Calvin said, breaking the hug. ¡°Perfect then, we will tell her the truth after the ultrasound report. And the best part will be that we will get a chance to listen to the heartbeat of our pup by then.¡± Calvin felt a shiver down his spine, hearing this. He had experienced almost all the moments he counted but hearing heartbeats and watching a baby growing inside was totally a new thing for him. He wondered how it would be to feel his pup¡¯s heartbeat when he or she would be a size a pea. He was being told that his dad¡¯s eyes had been moistened, and he wanted to get all the shopping for the pup at the moment itself, but it was his mother who stopped his father. ¡°What do you think? I will be again pregnant with twins?¡± She asked softly. ¡°I¡­ I don¡¯t know. Lee is pregnant with only one pup. So, maybe we can also have just one or maybe two. Leave that topic for the night ande on, we aren¡¯t here to stay in bed the whole time.¡± Saying this, Calvin sat on the bed and spanked Ethlyn¡¯s ass. ¡°Come on,zy ass¡± He grinned widely when Ethlyn red at him. ¡°Carry me¡±ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . ¡°dly.¡± He leaned toward her and gave a long kiss on her lips before carrying her in his arms in a bridal style. * Roselet was right that they needed a break and to give each other as much time as they could because not everything can be learned about each other by talking. Calvin used his time to spoil Ethlyn as much as he could because she was a little too perfect. He tried to her shameless, just like him, but she kept saying, ¡°After three months.¡± ¡°Why? Why not now?¡± ¡°Because pup starts learning from his or her mother¡¯s womb,¡± Ethlyn exined. ¡°Oh!! Does that mean they will be super active in sex?¡± Calvin teased. ¡°Ah. You¡¯re really a shameless person.¡± Ethlyn scolded him angrily, on which heughed. Throughout the trip, they kept trying their stupid and silly ways to guess when they would have two pups or one. And finally, that day came after two weeks when their trip ended. Both Calvin and Ethlyn were excited to hear the heartbeats of their pup or pups. Calvin had held Ethlyn¡¯s hand when she was lying, and the doctor was going to check on her. ¡°I¡¯m Nervous,¡± Calvin muttered, on which Ethlyn chuckled. ¡°Don¡¯t worry; everything will be fine,¡± Ethlyn assured him as if he was the one who was carrying their pup. In all these days, she saw another side of Calvin, who used to get nervous or scared, seeing her pain. Instead of him assuring her, she used to be the one who used to handle him. For example, if the doctor was going to inject some dose of medicine into Ethlyn¡¯s body, then he used to one who used to get panic. Ethlyn found this nature cute. Even then, Calvin¡¯s hands were getting cold, and he was holding Ethlyn¡¯s hand because it was he who needed emotional support. Hell, she could hear his heartbeats till here. ¡°Is everything fine?¡± ¡°Is our pup safe?¡± ¡°How many pups are we going to have?¡± ¡°Alpha, please rx.¡± The doctor said, calmly down the nervous Alpha. A big smile appeared on her lips when she saw something. ¡°Here, listen carefully to the heartbeat of your pup.¡± She added next. Ethlyn had once gone through this stage, so yes, she was excited but watching Calvin¡¯s expression was more beautiful to her, whose eyes twinkled hearing the heartbeat of their pup; a small appeared on his lips. She thought that she was pregnant with only one pup when the doctor said, ¡°Now, listen to the heartbeat of the second pup.¡± Their eyes widened, and they looked at each other happily. ¡°Yes, we are continuing the legacy,¡± Calvin said in excitement. ¡°It¡¯s time to hear the heartbeats of the third pup.¡± The doctor said. ¡°Seems like we aren¡¯t continuing the legacy.¡± Calvin joked and was super duper excited that he was going to be a father of Triplets. ¡°We are going to have Triplets, Kitten.¡± He said and leaned toward her to kiss Ethlyn when the doctor stopped them. ¡°Hold on, Alpha. It¡¯s not the end.¡± ¡°What?¡± Calvin asked in shock. ¡°It¡¯s the heartbeats of the fourth pup.¡± She said. Both Ethlyn and Calvin were shocked now. ¡°How many are left?¡± Calvin asked, on which Ethlyn pped his arms. ¡°What?? The count is not ending.¡± He reasoned out and looked at her stomach. ¡°I wonder how they will all fit here.¡± ¡°Not much, Alpha, just two pups more. In short, Luna is pregnant with just six pups.¡± ¡°Just?¡± Ethlyn¡¯s eyes widened again, listening to the word ¡®JUST.¡¯ ¡®Sextuplets.¡¯ Calvin thought in his mind, and his eyes were equally wide open, just like Ethlyn¡¯s. . #TBC . A/N: Thank you for reading ?? 146 Before breaking this news to family members, the couple took their own time to digest this shocking news. With this news, the tension also grew in their mind because carrying six pups were too risky. A Mother could suffer a miscarriage as well. Not just that, the chance of any of the pups¡¯ death in the mother¡¯s womb was also there. ¡°Sex! Sex! Sex! Every time sex! Because of you, I¡¯m pregnant with Sextuplets.¡± Ethlynined, hitting Calvin¡¯s arm. Calvin looked at her in shock. She wasining as if he had raped her or forced her into sex. Immediately he recalled that she had begged him to leave her on the very first night, but he didn¡¯t listen to her. ¡°Yeah! It¡¯s my mistake that you¡¯re pregnant with Sextuplets.¡± Calvin joked, to which Ethlyn red at him and started hitting him continuously. Obviously, if she was pregnant with so many pups, then he was the one to be med. ¡°Do you find this funny? Huh?¡± She asked. ¡°I¡¯m worried about all the pups, and you¡¯re cracking a joke over here? You should have taken care of the fact that I don¡¯t get pregnant with six pups, but you didn¡¯t. You didn¡¯t. You didn¡¯t. You didn¡¯t.¡± She kept hitting Calvin while speaking. ¡°Hunters, vampires, witches, and many more creatures make fun of us, calling us a dog or mutt. Now, I¡¯m really going to give birth to six pups like a dog.¡± ¡°Well, they can give birth to a maximum of twenty-four pups once at a time.¡± Calvin teased her a little more. ¡°Youuuu¡± Ethlyn red at him and hit him hard this time. But soon she started crying. Calvin opened his arms and hugged her. ¡°It¡¯s okay. It¡¯s okay.¡± He whispered in her ear, understanding clearly what was making her worried. He couldn¡¯t feel the pain of losing one pup as much as Ethlyn could. So, she didn¡¯t want any of her pups to happen anything. ¡°We can¡¯t lose our heads right now, okay?¡± ¡°That¡¯s the worst case. Let¡¯s not stress much because that¡¯s not allowed for you. Also, all this is the moon goddess¡¯s n because none of us had guessed that this could have happened. So, I¡¯m positive that if we take all the precautions properly, then nothing will happen to our pup.¡± Calvin said, caressing her back, helping her in calming down. ¡°It¡¯s good news. Let¡¯s not spoil it by thinking over unnecessary things. Because the future is set in stone.¡± Calvin said. ¡°Hmm!! I¡¯m sorry.¡± Ethlyn mumbled and wiped tears and a running nose both in Calvin¡¯s t-shirt. ¡°Umm¡­ sorry for that.¡± She said, giving him a guilty look. ¡°It¡¯s okay. It¡¯s better than vomiting on me.¡± Calvin said, wiping her tears. ¡°To be honest, I don¡¯t feel disgusted with all these things because I have raised Rose. I don¡¯t even remember how many times she peed on my clothes, ruining my expensive suits by vomiting the food when that she wouldn¡¯t be able to digest after breakfast.¡± Ethlyn smiled before speaking, ¡°This time, we have to handle six pups. And I¡­I¡¯m inexperienced in this field.¡± ¡°I¡¯m sure Mom, dad, and Rose will help us in the best way possible,¡± Calvin said. ¡°Come on; our daughter needs to know about her precious gift.¡± * ¡°I know. I already know what gift you have for me?¡± Roselet said confidently. ¡°Really?¡± Calvin raised his eyebrow. ¡°Really. I¡¯m smart.¡± She said, pointing her index finger at her forehead. ¡°I know why you two went to the hospital. I¡¯m going to be a big sister, ain¡¯t I?¡± She asked. Calvin looked at his parents, who shook their heads. It meant that they didn¡¯t say anything to her. She was assuming everything on her own. ¡°Calvin, I¡¯m going to be a big sister, ain¡¯t I?¡± She asked again and reached near Ethlyn. ¡°Here is my baby brother or sister.¡± She asked, touching Ethlyn¡¯s stomach, but at the wrong ce. She had kept her hand on the upper part of the stomach. ¡°Yes!!!!¡± ¡°Yeeeeee!!!¡± Roselet jumped in excitement. ¡°Thank you, Mommy and daddy, for making me a big sister.¡± ¡°Here. This is the picture of your sisters or brothers.¡± Saying this, Calvin gave her the ultrasound pictures first to her. She quickly grabbed it to see the picture, but it wasn¡¯t like the normal picture that she had seen until now. ¡°Brothers and sisters?¡± Brandon first noticed that ¡®S¡¯ in both words. He gave a wide smile to Sophia and hugged her. ¡°Twins again.¡± ¡°Twins? But how. I don¡¯t see any pup here.¡± Roselet said in confusion. ¡°Wait!! Let me help you.¡± Sophia said to show Roselet where her siblings are in the picture. ¡°Here, this pea-size ball is your brother or sister.¡± She said and observed all those pictures carefully. Her eyes widened when she counted the number of pups. ¡°No way!!¡± She muttered, looking at Calvin and Ethlyn in shock. ¡°What happened?¡± Brandon looked at those pictures in tension, wondering why Sophia acted like that. Even his eye¡¯s widened when after a while. ¡°Really?¡± Brandon asked, to which Calvinughed and nodded his head. Brandon reached near him within a second and picked him up like he was a child. ¡°Dadddd¡­¡± ¡°I¡¯m so proud of you. Only if your mother wouldn¡¯t have been a human, I would have made her pregnant every year.¡± Brandon said, patting his back, on which Calvinughed while Sophia sneered and hugged Ethlyn and congratted her again. ¡°I don¡¯t get it,¡± Roselet whined. ¡°Why are there five¡­ no six peas in mommy¡¯s womb? And why are they so small?¡± She asked. Sophiaughed and cupped her face, ¡°That¡¯s because you are going to have six younger siblings and all pups are of pea size in the beginning, even you were.¡± She replied. Roselet¡¯s eyes widened in shock, and she didn¡¯t speak anything for a while, ¡°What happened? Aren¡¯t you happy?¡±Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Grandma, how will I handle them?¡± She asked in worry, as if she was going to raise those pups. ¡°I can look after one or two at one time.¡± Everyoneughed at her innocent words. . #TBC 147 ¡°All is well. All is well. All is well.¡± Ethlyn kept chanting in her mind even though she knew that nothing could go wrong when Calvin was by her side. Still, the memory of her past was haunting her. ¡®Come on, Ethlyn!! You have to kick your fear out of your mind.¡¯ Cinder said, to which she nodded her head. It was gender revtion day, and she was scared that history might repeat itself. She knew that she was getting worried for nothing, but she couldn¡¯t help. To be honest, she didn¡¯t want Calvin to throw this party, but he still did because he wanted her to move on from her fear. He wanted to enjoy this moment also because he had to build the pups¡¯ nursery in the same way, keeping the color and everything in mind. He didn¡¯t get a chance to do this all at the time of Roselet, so now he didn¡¯t want to miss any moment. ¡°Wow!! You look hot.¡± Calvinmented, walking inside the room and admiring the work of the beautician on Ethlyn. Ethlyn was wearing a tie-dye bodycon of light blue and pink color, showing her big baby bump, and a tiara on her head made up of flowers. Ethlyn reached near him and softly hit Calvin¡¯s cheek before scolding, ¡°Don¡¯t you have mother and sister at home?¡± Calvin was confused at first hearing her words, and that was when he realized that this was how it had begun. With a p and with the same line. He started grinning and watched the love of his life faking her anger. ¡°I have both mother and sister at my home, but they are hot and sexy from father and brother-inw,¡± he replied, rubbing his cheek as if it was hurting because of her fake p. ¡°While I have you whom I can call sexy, hot, and look at you lustfully,¡± he added with a smirk. ¡°Youuuu¡± Ethlyn was about to p him when Calvin held her wrist. ¡°Just because you got a chance to p me once. Have you assumed my cheek as your private property? Hmm?¡± Calvin asked while Ethlyn tried to get her from his grip. ¡°Leave my wrist.¡± She hissed. ¡°Why? I thought you were enjoying touching me. I don¡¯t mind sleeping with you. Trust me; I¡¯m too good in bed.¡± Calvin proposed his offer shamelessly, ¡°I will like to burn in the fire of hell instead of sleeping with you.¡± Ethlyn hissed, and soon both of them startedughing loudly and rested their forehead against each other. ¡°I didn¡¯t know back then one of your cousin¡¯s partners was a fire demon, and he could burn me easily.¡± Sheughed. ¡°He wouldn¡¯t dare,¡± Calvin muttered and gave a light kiss on her lips before walking out, holding her arms.N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material. * Ethlyn smiled, looking at everyone and walking with Calvin. Her eyesnded on Nathan, who was with¡­. Chloe? And also, both pups of Damian were with them. She wondered when and how this happened. Then, she gave a small smile to her mother, who was also there. Her parents weren¡¯t together now, but what mattered was they were here for her!! The whole pack was beautifully decorated with white, pink, and blue balloons with the question mark of Girl or Boy? And six games were organized to know the gender of each baby. The first one was swimming, where Roselet and Artin were going to participate; if Rose would win, then it was a girl, and in case Artin would win, then it was a boy. ¡°Calvin,¡± ¡°Hmm¡± ¡°Elena wouldn¡¯t being here, would she?¡± She asked softly. ¡°She wouldn¡¯t dare. After what Alpha Nathan, Chloe, your mother, and I did with her?¡± He asked and answered himself. ¡°Not a chance.¡± Ethlyn nodded her head and felt bad for her sister. Calvin had told her what he had done to her. * FLASHBACK Two weeks before * Isabe West, Luna of Star Light Pack, had given birth to a boy, and the whole pack was celebrating the birth of Alpha¡¯s heir with their Alpha, Anthony West. ¡°Congrattion, Alpha Anthony.¡± Calvin congrattion him. ¡°I got a lot of diaper pants for the Alpha Heir.¡± ¡°Thank you!! Thank you so much, Alpha Calvin.¡± He said with a big smile and signaled the omega near him to receive the gift that Calvin had brought with him. Calvin¡¯s jaws tightened when his eyesnded on Isabe, who was doing her best to hide behind Anthony West. He hadn¡¯t forgotten how she was looking for an Alpha to settle. ¡°That meeting never happened because of the war near your area,¡± Anthony said. ¡°No, issue. I¡¯m sure that can happen tonight.¡± Calvin said and smirked, looking at Isabe. ¡°Remember that I told you that the mother of my pupnded in my room, and your mate knew something about it.¡± ¡°Yes! Yes!! And I¡¯m sure that my mate will help you in the best way possible.¡± Anthony said with a smile. ¡°That won¡¯t be required because I already know that your mate was behind everything,¡± Calvin said bluntly. ¡°Excuse me?¡± ¡°This woman whom you¡¯re calling your mate is a fraud, an imposter but not mate,¡± Calvin said loudly, making sure that everyone, each and everyone in the pack, was. ¡°Alpha Calvin, you do know the consequences of the things that you¡¯re saying,¡± Anthony warned. ¡°Of course I do. And trust me, I¡¯m here with all the proof.¡± Calvin said. ¡°Did your mate ever tell you that Isabe is not her real name, but her real name is ELENA NOLAN, Daughter of Liam Nn and Abigail Gilbert?¡± He announced, and Isabe/Elena¡¯s face paled. . #TBC 148 ¡°I forgot that I brought some guests with me,¡± Calvin added and called Alpha Nathan Gayle, Abigail Gilbert, and Chloe. ¡°Hi, Elena!! Remember me? I¡¯m sure you would. After all, you destroyed my life with my fated mate.¡± Nathan said, gritting his teeth. ¡°Elena, you told me that you and Alpha Nathan are fated mates, and Ethlyn was the one who came be you two,¡± Chloe said, feeling cheated that throughout the time, she was on the wrong side. She looked at Anthony West and broke the spell that she had done on him because of Anthony assumed Isabe as his mate. However, it was no use now because they both had already marked each other. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, Alpha Anthony West, but Elena isn¡¯t your fated mate. That was me who put a spell on you.¡± Chloe said, widening everyone¡¯s eyes. ¡°Also, I know that Elena had cooked up a fake story of getting raped and this pup was being the result of rape, etc., etc., but that was not true. She used to trap Alpha to be Luna by bing pregnant. But it was her bad luck that the Alpha whom she had trapped to be Luna was killed by Rogue. So, she used her pup to trap you¡­ and¡­. And I helped her.¡± Chloe started lifting all the truth about Elena¡¯s crime that she had done from childhood to till now and also how she helped her in her crime. The number of crimes that Chloe had revealed in front of Elena was something that Calvin couldn¡¯t have to find out in his whole life. Calvin couldn¡¯t help but feel proud of Ethlyn. Chloe handled all the torture, but she didn¡¯t speak against Elena, who was her best friend but one kindness from Ethlyn was enough to change Chloe¡¯s heart. ¡°She¡­ she is lying, Love,¡± Elena said, holding Anthony¡¯s arms. ¡°What else can you expect from a witch? She is born wicked.¡± Chloe was hurt by her words, but it was important for her to understand that throughout the time, Elena had just used her for her benefit. ¡°Really? You can say that about her, but can you say the same about me? The woman who gave birth to you.¡± Abigail Gilbert said and revealed everything to Anthony West that she also knew the fact that how she tried to cover up her crime and ended from ¡®SMITH¡¯ to ¡®GILBERT¡¯ because her mate kicked her out of his life. Anthony jerked her hand away from his arms when he heard the whole truth. The more everyone was telling the truth, the more his hatred for Elena increased. ¡°Love!! I can exin.¡± ¡°Trust me, darling. I can¡¯t now.¡± ¡°Anthony¡­ I¡­ please¡­ you can¡¯t reject me and throw my pup out of the pack. Where will we go? Please.¡± Elena begged. ¡°Who said that I would do anything to my pup? It¡¯s you who are leaving our life. It¡¯s clear that you never loved him; you just used me to emotionally weaken me. Moreover, if you will stay anywhere near him, then you will make him just like you¡¯re.¡± Anthony said, shaking his head. He was trying to handle the pain that he was being cheated on all this time. At the same time, Calvin watched everything silently. The moment he came to know that Isabe West was none other than Elena, he wanted to make her life a living hell then and there, but then she was pregnant, so he thought to wait. He wasn¡¯t surprised when he came to know that Elena tried to save her by showing that Isabe and Elena were two different people, but in the end, finally, she decided to open her mouth against Elena when Ethlynnded in the hospital again in the war. And when she came to know that Elena had sent Chloe to snatch Ethlyn¡¯s happiness again. Calvin smiled in satisfaction when Anthony West rejected her in front of everyone and pushed her way, making her fall to the ground. He imagined that Ethlyn was treated in the same way even though she was innocent. And he mentally celebrated his victory when Anthony kicked her out of the pack, dering her Rogue. * shback End!! * Ethlyn recalled this was what Calvin had done to her. Since she was pregnant, so, she wasn¡¯t there to see all this. Calvin wrapped his hands around her waist and smirked, recalling what he exactly did to Elena but didn¡¯t tell about it to Ethlyn. * When Calvin and the rest of them started leaving the Alpha Anthony West¡¯s Pack, they found Elena again. ¡°I won¡¯t leave anyone of you. Especially that bitch Ethlyn. You all ruined my life because of her, didn¡¯t you? I swear that I will kill her along with her pups who¡­¡± Elena didn¡¯t even get a chance to continue because Calvin broke her neck, killing her then and there. ¡°Aaahhhhh!!! Aaaaaahhh!!¡± Abigail Gilbert cried in horror when she saw her daughter dead. She quickly went to check on Elena, but she was already dead. ¡°She shouldn¡¯t have talked about hurting Ethlyn again,¡± Calvin growled in anger. ¡°No one!! No one will tell about it to Ethlyn until her delivery. I don¡¯t want to stress for her.¡± He ordered. **** Back to the present!! ¡°Yayyyyyy!!!! Four girls and Two boys!!¡± Roselet jumped in excitement. ¡°We girls will rock.¡± She said, shaking her buttock. ¡°Congrattions!!¡± Calvin whispered in Ethlyn¡¯s ear. ¡°You too!!¡± Ethlyn smiled and recalled how her life turned upside down from the previous gender reveal party to this one. She mentally thanked Moon Goddess for this happiness. ¡°Just like Colton and Calvin, I will get a chance to see the childhood of the twin¡¯s grandson,¡± Sophia said in excitement. ¡°I miss him, honey. I wish he was here.¡± She said in a hoarse voice. ¡°Let¡¯s not spoil others¡¯ moods,¡± Brandon whispered, calming Sophia. But Calvin had heard this already. His eyes moistened when he realized that everyone was there except his brother. ¡®Where¡¯re you, brother? I miss you.¡¯ He thought.Content rights belong to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Daddy, Mommy, are you ready for the pose?¡± Roselet asked in excitement, bringing Calvin out of his thoughts. ¡°Yes, love!!!¡± * #THE END * Author Note: So, finally, this book hase to an end.

Little did they know that their enemies, vampires, were waiting for this moment to attack them. The leader of the vampire¡¯s coven mind linked to all the vampires to get ready because they didn¡¯t want to give any chance to let their enemies escape from there. Unlike werewolves, every vampires were blessed with unique powers, and one of them was masking the scent. After masking the scent, they brutally killed the wolves on patrol without giving them any chance to inform them their Alpha was happening behind his back. Their lifeless bodiesy on the ground, and they entered the pack. But the moment those warriors were killed, the Alpha of the pack sensed it because he felt the bond of Pack members was getting broken. He tried to mind-link those warriors on patrol, but he couldn¡¯t. Immediately he opened the whole mind link and alerted the whole pack about the danger because that wasn¡¯t possible that none of the warriors would be avable when he tried to mind linked them. Meanwhile, vampires silently cleaned all the pack members as much as they could. In the end, they had to fight one-to-one, but why not decrease the number of opponents when they were getting a chance to do so? ¡°What happened?¡± The Luna of the pack asked. ¡°I¡¯m not sure, but just like I told everyone. We¡¯re under attack for sure. Grab all the females and pups as much as you can and take them to the dungeon. Be quick.¡± he ordered, not before giving her a quick kiss, and jumped out of the window, shifting in his wolf form. The Alpha of the pack howled loudly as a warning, and that was when he found them, Vampires. Soon, the war began, but this time, they were killing each other face to face. There was fire and blood everywhere. By observing the number of vampires, it was clear that this was a nned attack, and vampires were showing no mercy on females or pups, killing them mercilessly. The Alpha of the pack had already sensed that he was losing the war. ¡®Those who can escape the pack. Be quick because we won¡¯t be able to hold them for long.¡¯ He mind linked. ¡®I would like to die with you rather than leave the battle filed like a coward.¡¯ The Luna mind linked him. There was no way they could reach near dungeon because it was toote, vampires were everywhere, and even if they would have been tried, then they would have failed miserably because vampires¡¯ speed was a lot faster than werewolves in their human form. All the remaining warriors and ranked wolves fought against the vampires, helping the weak pack members to run away from there. The Alpha asked his mate to leave the battlefield, but she didn¡¯t leave. She just couldn¡¯t. She left. It was her duty to save the pack members as well. The vampire leader didn¡¯t fail to notice one female werewolf among all the males fighting against his vampires. Observing her bigger size, he realized that she was Alpha blood for sure. He mind-linked his vampires not to kill her sooner, not before he would have fun with the feisty she-wolf, and signaled them to attack the Alpha. Luna howled loudly in pain when she watched all the vampires attacking her mate, leaving the other wolves. She ran toward them to save him but was thrown away forcefully by the vampire leader. That was when she smelled of the blood of her mate. She felt the pain so badly that she howled again because joining the pack. She promised not to leave anyone of them alive, even though she knew it was impossible for her because all the other wolves ran away when the Alpha died. She angrily looked at the leader of the vampire andunched at him to kill him. The leader forbade everyone not to stop her because he wanted to kick her ass on his own. He wanted to show her that a woman¡¯s ce was under the man, not on the battlefield. The leader threw her away, grabbing her neck again, but she quickly stood up on her paw and attacked him. After five minutes, he was impressed by her willpower because no matter how many punches she took and was bleeding badly, she was still trying to fight with him. ¡°Okay, now, I¡¯m getting bored.¡± He said, and this time when she attacked, he attacked her back and bit her neck. Vampire¡¯s blood was poisonous to werewolves, so, in the next second, the luna shifted back into her human form, whimpering and crying because of the pain and also because of the venom in her body. ¡°She¡¯s beautiful, Boss.¡± ¡°Indeed, she is.¡± The leader spoke, watching her naked body lustfully. A smirk appeared on his face when he felt an erection between his pants. He started opening his clothes. Luna¡¯s eyes widened when she realized what was going to happen next!! She wanted to die with her mate on a battlefield like a warrior, but this was an utter insult to her. Why? Just because she was a woman. She tried to fight with him but failed miserably because all her energy had been finished in the process of killing him; on top, the pain around her neck area was doing no help to her. She cried in pain when she felt something tear inside her with force. ¡°Damn!! She was a virgin till a moment before.¡± He spoke, looking at his vampire mates. ¡°Looks like poor Alpha couldn¡¯t get to enjoy his first night with his luna.¡± And that was true. They were talking and trying to know each other before going forward. She kept crying in pain, looking at the lifeless body of her mate but didn¡¯t beg in front of those leeches to stop because she knew that they were not going to leave her. Once the leader was done with her, his minions fucked her mercilessly. ¡°Boss, I was thinking of keeping her as our sex ve until all of us enjoy at least once with her?¡± One of the vampires asked, indirectly telling him to remove his venom from her body or she would die. ¡°Do you all want that? The leader asked, to which everyone said YES in big excitement. After all, it wasn¡¯t every day to have a feisty alpha female under them. The leader removed some part of his venom from Luna¡¯s body so that she would survive a few weeks and was hoping that by then, all the vampires of his coven who surely get a taste of her. * A week had passed since then, and just like those vampires wanted, they didn¡¯t leave a chance to fuck her until she used to fall unconscious. The moment she used to gain her consciousness, those who hadn¡¯t gotten a chance to have her. Even she had forgotten the count that in the past week how many vampires had touched her. All she wanted to die than live a life like this, but it seemed like death had another n. ¡°What the fuck!!!¡±, She heard the vampire on top of her hissing. ¡°What¡¯s wrong with your stomach?¡± He asked her, but she wasn¡¯t in the condition to speak anything. The vampire felt staring at her stomach but didn¡¯t see anything, but he swore that he felt something moving inside it. .ConTEent bel0ngs to N?v(e)lD/rama(.)Org . #TBC . Thank you for reading ??
