Catherine's POV
Blake nodded and said, "Alright. I'll tell you about my past." As he spoke, I reached out and took his arm, and I drew nearer. Blake said, "Emily was adopted by my uncle from the werewolf orphanage. My uncle and his mate never had any children. Later, the pack witch told him to adopt an orphan. To their surprise, they did have a baby the following year. To be honest, I still find it unbelievable." I blinked. "Is she so amazing? Which pack does she belong to? Should we go meet her too?" Blake immediately said, "There's no need. She once said that I would be a werewolf without a mate." I laughed. "Then, you don't believe her?" "No, I don't!" Blake said. "Fine. I won't go!" As he opposed it, I gave it up. Then I said, "Continue!" Blake continued, "Emily has been very considerate since she was young. She was a good girl, and always watched her step. My uncle and aunt were very kind to her, and my grandparenThird person's POV Leo sat in his office chair, staring out of the window. Just now the senior managers of his company came over for a meeting. They talked about the latest urban romance the company was about to shoot, and suggested that the costumes for all the female leads should be designed by the now-famous Catherine. Leo's expression immediately became complicated when he heard Catherine's name. They kept persuading him to call Catherine and ask if she could take the job. Leo was becoming less and less concerned about work, daydreaming, and sleeping all day long. It was an opportunity, tempting Leo to call Catherine. Catherine was Leo's family. Why did he need to find a reason to call her? Why was he so timid about it? Leo was puzzled. He couldn't get the dream of the night before out of his head. In his dream, he went to attend Blake and Catherine's wedding. All of a sudden, he was the groom, which shocked him. I
Catherine's POV Around four in the afternoon, I heard the kids' footsteps outside in the hallway. I had finished two pieces of work, and when I heard their voices, I was no longer in the mood for work. I opened the bedroom door and the kids were a bit stunned when they saw me. "Mommy." Hedwig blinked her big eyes. Then she said, "You're home?" Noah immediately came over and asked with concern, "Mommy, are you sick again?" I walked quickly over, crouched down, and pressed my forehead against Noah's. "See? I'm fine!" Then, Hedwig asked curiously, "Mommy, were you fired?" Noah rolled his eyes at Hedwig. "Daddy dares not to fire mommy. Otherwise, we will fire him!" I grinned. "Noah, you are my little hero. No one dares to bully me because I have a good son like you. I'm counting on you, got it?" Noah immediately reached out and touched my head. He acted like a grownup and said in a serious tone, "Mommy, I won't let
Catherine's POV "If mommy has another baby, then I'll become its older sister, right?" Hedwig asked seriously. "Yes, you'll have a little brother or sister. How's that?" asked Patricia with a smile. "No! I don't want that. I want to be the younger sister. So, Noah will always indulge me!" Hedwig said in a childish tone. Patricia and Emerson were somewhat stunned, while Blake and I smiled. "Hedwig, you'll learn more things if you have a younger brother or sister." "Really?" Hedwig blinked her big eyes. "You'll learn to share and to take care of others, and..." "Patricia, I don't want to share. I already have to share mommy and daddy's love with Noah. And daddy promised me that he wouldn't have other children!" Hedwig somehow dragged Blake into the conversation. Patricia's eyes suddenly turned stern. She stared at Blake and asked, "When did you promise Hedwig such a thing?" Blake forced a smile. "I said so when I
Catherine's POV It was Leo. He was wearing sunglasses and a cap, so no one would have recognized him. "Leo!" The moment Leo took off his sunglasses and cap, Roxanne almost pounced on him for a hug. Leo ducked quickly to one side. Roxanne did not get to throw herself into his arms, but she did not mind that at all. Instead, she said excitedly, "Sorry, I was too happy to see you. Leo, I didn't scare you, did I?" My heart skipped a beat when I saw the scene just now. Roxanne might come out a bit strong. I knew Leo was a bit of a neat freak. "It's fine. Please sit down!" Leo said politely after calming down. Roxanne then sat down happily next to Leo without hesitation. Then, like a young girl in the first flush of puberty, she put her hands to her cheeks and stared at Leo without blinking. Leo was a little helpless, and I could see the reluctance flash across his handsome face. I sat aside. To lighten the mood, I qui
Catherine's POV "That's enough, Ms. Carroll. You'll get drunk if you keep drinking!" I said quickly to Roxanne. "I'm fine. I can hold my liquor. I won't get drunk!" Roxanne said with a smile. She was very confident, but I could tell that she was already a little tipsy. I couldn't stop Roxanne, so I walked over and snatched Leo's glass. "Please stop drinking. You should go now?" Leo was also slightly drunk. He smiled and reached for the glass. I tried to stop him by lifting the glass. But Leo pounced upon me. Leo suddenly put his arms around me, and I was stunned. Then he took the glass from my hand. Leo returned to his seat and sat down. "Catherine, I got the glass!" I was startled by his sudden embrace. "Fine. Keep going. Drink as much as you want! I'll watch you drink. I will call your family later and let them pick you up." I didn't bother to stop them anymore. As expected, Roxanne was wasted. She lay
Catherine's POV I noticed that Emily, who was next to me, had a look of resentment on her face after what Patricia had said. I shook hands with the elders of the royal pack and greeted them one by one with Patricia's introduction. "Madam Chavez, your future granddaughter-in-law is so beautiful." "Yeah, and she looks young as well. I heard that she already has two kids. How nice!" Patricia could not help smiling when her two lovely great-grandchildren were mentioned. They were the best gift she could ever dream of. "That's right. Noah and Hedwig are lovely. They are simply adorable! I will bring them over someday!" Patricia said proudly. "We saw them last time. Their pretty faces are so cute!" I stood beside them and listened as Patricia chatted with them about the kids. As their mother, they're perfect in my eyes. Others, however, may not share the same feelings. And I was embarrassed by the compliment. Emily st
Catherine's POV "There must be some misunderstanding. She is just a rookie in the Design Department. When did she become a big shot?" Emily said indignantly. "Emily, who are you to her?" Someone was curious. I knew Emily was trying to embarrass me on purpose. I had to defend myself. Then I said, "I am Catherine!" Everyone was shocked. They were stunned and admired me. "Are you King Blake's girlfriend?" "Do you just know it now? She already has two children with King Blake. Why do you think her designs are so expensive? It's because of her identity!" explained the girl who recognized me at once. It never occurred to me to use the Lycan Luna identity for bragging rights. Emily sneered at the girl's words, "Are you saying that she is the Lycan Luna? That would be premature to say. They are not married yet. They aren't even engaged. They have two kids. That's all." Emily was such a pain in the ass today. I felt the u
Third person's POV "Ms. Wyatt, did you know? I'm engaged. I'm getting married at the end of the month!" Roxanne's voice turned sad. Catherine was dumbfounded. For a moment, she did not know how to comfort Roxanne. "You must find it very funny, right? The marriage is between two families, and he is my childhood sweetheart. I do not hate him, but I have no affection for him. He has always been kind to me. I agreed to marry him for my folks' sake. I've always loved Leo, so I wanted to meet him. I tried many ways, and in the end, you made my dream come true. Although I said many things I should not have said, I felt much better. I hope you'll come to my wedding!" Roxanne tried to pull herself together and look less sad. It suddenly seemed to Catherine that Roxanne, though she seemed a spoiled girl, was a good daughter. She acted out of place with Leo, but she had her reasons. "Sure. I will be there with my best wishes to you," Catherine said.
Third People's POV After what happened last time, Emerson's condition got worse quickly. Blake did not know if Richard would ever regret what he did. Right now, Blake simply wanted to spare Emerson any regrets. Then, it was time for him to settle accounts with Richard and Nick. Therefore, with Catherine's consent, in less than a month, he and Catherine sent out wedding invitations after their engagement. Abigail and Patricia gave Catherine a white wedding dress that cost nearly 10 million with thousands of diamonds on it. Catherine was so moved that her eyes turned red after learning that Abigail and Patricia had given her such a precious gift. Their ring had been custom-made a long time ago. It was a rarity with only the best diamonds, and it took the most skilled craftsmen nearly a month to polish. The ring, which had yet to be named, was finally given a name by the purchaser, Blake, and he called it "the one". It was Catherine's wedding
Catherine's POV In the morning, the sun was shining brightly. In this month of snow, it was a rare sunny day today. On this day, the love story between Blake and me finally had a perfect result. We were going to be engaged. This made the whole city excited. Everyone was talking about it, looking forward to seeing the scene of our engagement banquet. Blake prepared this engagement banquet in a hurry. In his view, everything was not perfect, but he was already doing his best to do everything. The Moon Goddess could vouch for me. I didn't care about this. As long as he was by my side, I would be satisfied. Emerson was very happy and very pleased. He could finally see his grandson getting married. At my engagement party, Abigail was present, but Halsey could not come. Because he did not want to ruin my engagement party. Today was the engagement party. It was not our wedding yet, so I did not wear a white wedding dress. I only wore a dar
Third People's POV The next morning, the news of Blake and Catherine's engagement was spread. It was not discovered by the reporters. Instead, because the Chavez Pack had sent the invitations early in the morning, the people who were invited would naturally talk about it. Thus, some media outlets took the opportunity to report it. They did not exaggerate the engagement banquet and simply reported it. The media and reporters were smart enough and knew clearly about what they could report unrestrainedly and whom they couldn't afford to offend. Blake was a good example. The rumors about him on the internet would always be removed in less than an hour. Therefore, if someone was ignorant and posted something about Blake randomly, he would never be able to bear the consequences. He would lose his job, implicated the entire company he was in, and even go to jail. Emily browsed the news on the internet with an ashen face. Blake and Catherine were about to get engaged.
Blake's POV Inside the manor. Richard stayed for dinner. Nick was also called back by Patricia. Patricia called Leo, but Leo rejected her. Patricia scolded Leo for that. Leo was depressed and went to eat with Sunny. Because of Olivia, the relationship between him and Sunny had been bumpy recently. Since it was a family dinner, Catherine had to bring the children downstairs. Richard was sitting on the sofa and chatting with Nick. I sat next to him as the host. I was already Lycan King. I had the final say in the entire royal wolf pack. Therefore, Richard and Nick didn't seem happy. After Catherine brought the two children downstairs, Nick's eyes focused on her. Catherine wore a long white knitted coat. Her long hair hung on her back. She looked sweet and warm. My gaze inadvertently swept across Nick's face, which was filled with obsession. Although he quickly put that look away, I saw it clearly. I became wary. How dare he covet my woman in
Blake's POV The night fell. I returned home at six o'clock in the evening. My face was cloudy. At this time, Richard should have arrived home. The car stopped outside Mountaintop Villa. I strode into the parlor. Dowen quickly came over and greeted me. "Is Richard here?" I asked in a low voice. Dowen pointed upstairs. "He just arrived. Now he is talking to Emerson and Patricia upstairs." I frowned deeply and snorted in my heart. I had made a difficult decision that I would not do anything to Richard when Emerson was still alive. However, if he kept making trouble, I wouldn't show any mercy to him. I climbed the stairs. I did not go up to see Emerson and Patricia immediately. Instead, I walked to the toy room. Then, I saw two little guys quietly practicing writing and drawing. Catherine sat gently on one side and was teaching them. Under the warm light, the scene of two children staying with their mom looked sweet. "Daddy
Blake's POV I had heard the news from my assistant and knew that Leo had come to see me. When I saw Leo push the door open, I immediately frowned. "How much did you drink?" "I have something very important to tell you!" After Leo finished speaking, he raised a mobile phone. "This is Sunny's phone. She went to see Olivia and recorded Olivia's statement. It seemed that Richard was really behind it." "Play it, now!" My face instantly darkened and my voice was urgent. Leo clicked the recording. After the two of us listened to it, Leo said coldly, "This is the evidence. We can send Richard to prison again. The werewolf court will give him the trial he deserves." "Leo, I also have something to tell you!" I was very angry after listening to the recording, but I could not be impulsive. After a few seconds of silence, I finally made a decision. When Leo saw that I didn't react the way he did, his expression changed greatly and suppressed his anger.
Third People's POV At noon, the sun hid in the clouds and the sky was dark as if there would be a blizzard at any time. Emily paced back and forth in the room uneasily. She had someone keep an eye on the development of the accident. She didn't expect that the accident would end in just a few days. The family of the deceased accepted Blake's large sum of compensation. The man she picked was still held at the police station. Thus, Emily felt as if she was waiting for the coming of death. She felt sadder day by day. The man had received 100,000 from Emily. Emily believed that she would be investigated soon. However, she didn't understand why the police hadn't called her yet. This matter had already come to an end. On the night that the man was arrested, he confessed everything. The police found out that the man had several bank accounts. Although he received the money in batches, there were 100,000 in total. The money and the man's ambiguous attitud
Catherine's POV It was early in the morning. At breakfast, Blake brought up the engagement. The others were very supportive. No one had any objections. Emerson was simply thrilled. He rarely came down to have breakfast with us. Hearing that Blake and I were going to get engaged, he said excitedly, "That's great! The sooner the better!" Hedwig stirred the oats in her bowl, pouted, and asked, " Daddy, Mommy, after you get engaged, can I have a younger sister?" Everyone was amused by her words. I was the only exception. I blushed. Blake's gaze swept across my face, and he gently put his arm around my slender waist under the table. I was startled and quickly pushed his unruly hand away. "Hedwig, no talking when eating. Have you forgotten?" I was worried that Hedwig might say something blunter, so I reprimanded her softly. "I'm sorry, Mommy." Hedwig immediately became obedient again. "Catherine, are you on vacation? I
Catherine's POV Blake went to work early the next morning. Suddenly, my phone rang. I looked at the caller ID and found that it was Halsey. I was very glad to receive his call. "Halsey, why are you back so suddenly? You should have told me in advance." "It was a last-minute call. Can we have dinner together tonight? It would be even better if you could bring the kids together with you," Halsey said gently. I hesitated for a moment and then whispered, "Let me ask Blake. If he doesn't want me to bring the kids out, I will come alone." "Alright. See you tonight." Halsey hung up the phone. Then I called Blake and told him about the call with Halsey. There was a bit of displeasure in Blake's tone. "Is he back?" "Yes. Can I bring the kids to eat with him?" I asked him nicely, wanting to know his opinion. "At a time like this, I don't think you should take the kids out." Blake still blamed Halsey. I didn't insist. "OK then. I
