This morning, I was working in the Sayreville branch of the Chavez Group
After I officially succeeded my father as the new Lycan King, I changed the name of the company to the Chavez Group.
I didn’t care about the opinions of those old fogies of the Council.
Just as I was looking at the report my Beta submitted to me about the company, my office door was opened.
I couldn’t help but frown.
As the door was opened, a woman in a strapless dress came in. She had long wavy blonde hair.
The moment she saw me, she put on a smile that she thought was charming.
She held her long hair and deliberately put them to one side, revealing her
fair neck.
The woman was Gina, whose father was the Alpha of the Black Moon Pack.
I slept with her five years ago, but I didn’t like her at all.
However, in order to be the Lycan King, I promised to make her my future Lycan Luna.
I looked at her in annoyance and asked. “What are you doing here?”
“King Blake, there will be a mating gathering in Shadow Forest today. Will you come?” Gina had a bright smile on her face and said in a sweet voice. “I mean, can you go there with me?”
“Not interested.” I cast a cold glance at her and wondered when she could understand my attitude and stay away from me.
“Okay, I got it. I’ll leave now.” I saw that Gina seemed to be devastated. and left my office in depression.
In the evening, I stood in front of the window after finishing my work and saw the firelight in Shadow Forest in the distance.
That should be the square for mating gatherings.
I loosened the tie on my neck and contacted my Beta through Mind–Link.
“Henry, get the car ready. Let’s go to the mating gathering in Shadow Forest.”
“Okay,” Henry responded.
When I arrived at Shadow Forest with my men, I saw Gina and a woman standing in front of her.
The woman gave me a familiar feeling. She had long brown hair and a slender waist.
As I tried to look at the woman more clearly, she gave Gina a slap.
What a rude woman!
I walked over and slightly released my Lycan aura. Then I saw Henry and Gina lowering their heads because of my Lycan aura.

But the strange woman still held her head high and looked at me provocatively, which surprised me.
“Who exactly is she?
Why wasn’t she affected by my pressure?”
Catherine’s POV
By the time I got back to Mabel’s house, both of my children had taken a shower.
Noah was fiddling with a wooden toy on the sofa, and Mabel was drying Hedwig’s hair with a hairdryer next to him.
Although Hedwig was young, she had a cute chubby face and looked just. like a doll with her soft brown hair.
“Mommy! Have you had dinner?” Noah put down his toy and ran over to hold my leg when he saw me.
“Yes. It’s time to go to bed, babe. Tomorrow morning, we will go to meet the Alpha of the Black Thorn Pack and see if we can join them.” I couldn’t help but squat and kiss Noah’s face.
After Hedwig’s hair became dry, Mabel wore Hedwig’s hair in bunches.
“Catherine, go take a shower. I’ll take care of the kids.” Mabel had three children, so she was experienced in looking after children.
Besides, Noah and Hedwig were good kids and never caused trouble.
I nodded and looked at Mabel with gratitude. “Thank you, Mabel. I will take a shower now.”
When I saw my children, what had happened tonight flashed across my mind. Instantly, my spirits drooped.

But I held back my tears in front of Noah and Hedwig. No matter how hard life was. I wouldn’t cry in front of the children.
They were very sensitive despite their young age. If I was in a bad mood, they would get infected too.
“Silly girl. I even held you when you were a kid. I’m glad that I could help you.” Mabel stared at me lovingly.
When she saw me come back empty–handed, she probably had guessed that I had failed this time.
“Mommy, we’re gonna go to bed now.” Noah looked at me and then at Mabel before he took Hedwig’s hand.
“Noah, I want to sleep in Mommy’s arms.” Hedwig pouted and asked in a low voice.
“Mommy will come to sleep with us after she gets out of the bathroom. Let’s go to bed first.” Noah patted Hedwig’s face and comforted her.
“But… But I can’t sleep without Mommy.” Tears welled up in Hedwig’s amber eyes.
“Hedwig, you are a coward.” Noah stuck his tongue out at Hedwig.
“I’m not! You’re a bad brother!” Hedwig pouted angrily and retorted in a
cute voice.
“Humph, catch me if you can.” Noah made a face and ran to the bedroom, followed by Hedwig.
The two little kids quickly ran into the bedroom.
“Be careful!” Mabel shouted in worry.

the ground by Blake’s subordinate, my clothes were covered in dust.
After I dried my hair, I walked to the bedroom and found the kids. bouncing around on the bed.
Mabel stood by the bed and fixed her eyes on them, worrying that they would fall to the floor.
“Kids, stop it. Let’s go to sleep. We have things to do tomorrow.” Walking to the bedside, I put the pillow in place and patted it.
Then I got up and said to Mabel, “Mabel, thank you for taking care of them today. Why don’t you go to have a rest now? I’ll put them to bed.”
“Okay. Come up to me after they fall asleep. I have something to say.” Mabel nodded and left.
I turned off the light in the room and climbed onto the bed.
With the moonlight shining through the window, there was a pretty silver halo on the covers.
This reminded me of the nights I had spent in the past five years. Every evening, I stayed with Noah and Hedwig, bathed in moonlight.
I gently patted their small arms, during which I gradually calmed down.
The kids were tired from the journey, and they had been playing for a long time. As a result, they soon fell asleep.
Hearing their even breathing, I softly pulled my arm out.
I carefully got out of bed and looked at Noah and Hedwig under the moonlight. I was very satisfied.
No matter what I had suffered outside, I would pull myself together when I saw my kids.

I slipped out of the bedroom and walked to the living room. Mabel was knitting a sweater on the sofa.
“What Elena and Gina did is outrageous. That’s your mother’s necklace. How could they keep it and refuse to give it back to you?” Mabel stared up at me with a concerned look.
“I didn’t see Elena.” I lowered my head and stroked the bruise Blake left.
on my arm.
“You can go to see Troy. No matter what, he is your father. I think he will return your mother’s thing to you.” Mabel put down the sweater and took a sip of water.
“I’ll try.” I looked at Mabel and nodded.
