The next morning, I woke up early.
I sat up and found Noah and Hedwig still asleep beside me. My face. cracked into a smile.
The two kids were my sunshine and my whole world.
I patted the two kids to wake them up.
Mabel had gotten the breakfast ready. After washing up, I helped Hedwig wash her face and brush her teeth. Noah was an independent kid and
could do these things himself.
“Mommy, hug me.” Hedwig blinked her beautiful big eyes sleepily. Obviously, she didn’t get enough sleep.
I kissed her tender face as I got her into her dress.
Hedwig had an adorable expression and didn’t avoid my kiss.
After Hedwig finished washing, I helped Noah get dressed.
Noah really cared about his image, so I dipped the comb in the water before I combed his hair.
As I combed Noah’s bang back, I was astonished at the sight of his smooth forehead.
“How is this possible?”
The man standing with Gina last night appeared in my mind.
His hairstyle was the same as Noah’s. I gazed at Noah and found that he looked exactly like that man.
Only then did I understand why I had a familiar feeling when I saw the man last night.
I didn’t dare to think deeply about it but shook my head subconsciously as I looked at Noah’s face.
“Mommy, are you alright?”
I looked down and found Noah staring at me with concern in his amber
eyes.
My heart skipped a beat. I took a deep breath and hid my uneasiness.
I smiled at Noah and said. “I’m fine. Go take Hedwig to breakfast.”
I must be so stressed that I would have such a weird idea.”
I thought as I watched Noah and Hedwig drink milk.
After breakfast. I took Hedwig and Noah by the hand and left Mabel’s
house.
This time, our driver was still Carl.
I was going to visit the Alpha of the Black Thom Pack. The Black Thom Pack was in downtown Sayreville, not far from New York
If I could be a member of it, Noah and Hedwig could get into a werewolf kindergarten in Sayreville.
There was a vast land of trees and greenery in Sayreville, as well as a huge lake where Noah and Hedwig could fish.
The rent of the townhouse wasn’t high, so I could live a comfortable life
with my two kids here.
As I was lost in thought, we soon arrived at the destination and the car pulled up.
Carl got out of the car, followed by my kids and me.
Carl walked a few steps to the patroller of the Black Thorn Pack and talked with him for a while. After that, Carl turned around and waved at
- me.
“Go, Catherine. Charlie will take you to meet his Alpha,” Carl said.
I nodded with gratitude and followed the man in front of me.
Before I came, I had written to the Alpha of the Black Thorn Pack about my particulars.
He wasn’t in the same circle as my father, and he didn’t care about my identity as a rogue.
Walking across a large lawn, I saw a townhouse not far away.
Charlie stopped and jutted his chin toward the townhouse. He said, “Alpha Theo is right there. You guys can go in.”
I took Noah and Hedwig into the building.
At the entrance sat a woman in uniform. She saw me and smiled. “Are you Catherine? Sign the register and you can go upstairs. Alpha Theo is on the third floor.”
Finally, we arrived at Alpha Theo’s office. He was sitting at his desk and reading a report. Noticing that the door was open, he looked up and saw
us come in.
He had messy blonde short hair and chiseled features.
He looked at me and then at Noah and Hedwig, revealing a smile.
“Welcome. Catherine. As we agreed before, I am willing to accept you into the Black Thom Pack.”
Hearing this, I couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief and smiled.
“Thank you very much. Alpha Theo. This is really good news for me. When shall I come to the initiation ceremony?”
“My Beta is out now. When he comes back, I will have him arrange it. Just wait for our call.” Alpha Theo said gently and then looked down at Noah and Hedwig. “Now you two are our members too.”
I didn’t expect things to go so smoothly. When I left, I still couldn’t believe it.
“Mommy, where are we going next?” Noah shook my hand.
I quickly squatted and looked at the two kids, saying, “After we officially join the Black Thorn Pack, we can rent a house and live here. Now let’s go shopping.”
There was a big Walmart downtown. I strolled around the supermarket with Noah and Hedwig, choosing what we wanted from the dazzling array of goods.
Suddenly, the clothing section came into view. I looked down and found Hedwig staring at a pink dress.
Just as I decided to walk over, my phone rang.
“Catherine? I’m Alpha Theo. I’m sorry to inform you that you can’t join our pack.”
“What? But we just met, and you said you would accept me.” I thought I had misheard.
“My Beta said that you had offended Gina at the mating gathering in Shadow Forest yesterday. She is the future Lycan Luna. I can’t take su risk to take you in.” Alpha Theo sounded a little guilty, but he immediately hung up before I could say something.
I stood where I was, totally in shock. I stared at my phone and couldn’t think clearly for a long time.
Just now, the kids and I were happy about our new life, but I got the ba news in less than two hours.
I didn’t even dare to think about what this meant.
Just as I was full of anxiety, I received a call from Mabel.
“Catherine, how is it going with you? Is everything okay?”
“I…” I felt that my throat was very dry. I swallowed and said, “Mable, Alpha Theo refused my request… Because he thought that I had offende Gina, the future Lycan Luna.”
“Catherine, don’t worry. Come back, and we will discuss what to do next.” Mabel comforted me despite her surprise.
When we returned to Mabel’s place, I left the two kids with Mabel and went into the bedroom alone.
I had thought I was tough, but I would still feel sad when faced with such
circumstances.
I couldn’t help but shed tears. I wanted to have a good cry to vent the frustration I had suffered during these days.
Abruptly, the bedroom door was opened. Noah and Hedwig came hand in hand.
