Harley's POV
At noon, Catherine found a table in a restaurant near the company and sent me the address. Ten minutes later, I showed up in front of her. The clothes I liked to wear didn't change over the years. I still liked casual clothes, just like when Catherine and I used to live in the same pack. Catherine sized me up. Then she smiled and said, "Harley, what happened? Why did you suddenly want to eat with me?" I looked at her, feeling uneasy. I swallowed the questions I wanted to ask her. "Nothing. I just felt that I messed up the last meal and wanted to treat you to another," I said with a smile, trying my best to be calm. "Why did you ask Gina to come over last time?" Catherine was still a bit angry at the mention of last time. I was stunned for a second and replied casually, "Actually, it was Gina who offered to eat together that day. She said that the three of us hadn't seen each other in ages, so she wanted us to haveCatherine's POV I told Melinda the truth today, and I had lunch with Harley, knowing that he was going to pursue his dream. Therefore, I felt better. I wasn't as agitated as last night. With this in mind, I went back to work. In the afternoon, my phone rang. I glanced at the screen. It was my father, Troy, the Alpha of Black Moon Pack. I hesitated for a few seconds and still picked up the phone. "Catherine, do you have a minute? I have something to tell you." He had always been so indifferent to me since I was a kid. "Alpha Wyatt, what is it? Let's talk about it now. I'm still working." I was telling the truth. I really couldn't go out to see him now. Ever since I was banished from Black Moon Pack, I addressed him differently. "I want you to come with me to the hospital." "The hospital? Are you sick? Can't the doctor in the pack do anything?" I was shocked when I heard the word "hospital". "I'm not
Catherine's POV I sat in the car. I stooped over the steering wheel and cried hard, venting all my grievances. If that was really what Alpha Wyatt wanted, I could forgive Gina for using my name to enjoy five years of wealth and glory. But from now on, I was no longer related to Black Moon Pack, because my relationship with them had become nothing but a trade. After crying for a long time, I found it was getting dark outside the window. I checked the time. It was almost seven o'clock. I wiped my tears off and opened the car window. The cold wind at night instantly made me freeze. However, no matter how cold I felt, I didn't want to close the window. I should let the wind make my eyes no longer red and swollen. When I was about to reach Blake's villa, my phone rang. It was Blake. I reached for my phone and pressed the speaker button. He asked faintly, "You're not going home for dinner again tonight?" "I'll be home soon,"
Catherine's POV Noah raised his chin slightly. His face was delicate and he looked cool. "Leo, listen up. My first request is that you are not allowed to say anything that my mommy hates ever again. You are not allowed to bully my mommy. You are not allowed to make her angry. And my second request is..." "Wait a minute, Noah. You said three sentences. Weren't these three requests already?" Noah blinked his big eyes. Then he tilted his head and thought carefully. "Well, you may be right." "Noah, the three requests are all for your mommy. Why don't you ask for something else? For example, you can ask me to buy you a toy you like, or take you somewhere you want..." Leo quickly persuaded Noah. Noah's big eyes instantly lit up when he heard the word "toy". Leo looked at Noah expectantly. But then Noah said, "No, I won't change my requests. I can ask my dad to buy me toys. He has plenty of money, and he can take me to anywhere we want." After some serious consideration, Noah
Catherine's POV After Leo left, I took the kids for a walk in the garden and came back to bathe them. They were tired. After the bath, they climbed onto the bed and fell asleep at once. I got out of the shower, and I saw a light in Blake's study. I didn't want to disturb him, but I still had to talk to him about Gina. I made a promise to Alpha Wyatt. I should do what I said. I was not a heartless person, but after this, I had nothing to do with Black Moon Pack anymore. I walked over and knocked on the door gently. "Come in!" I heard Blake's low and magnetic voice. It was particularly charming on such a quiet night. I took a deep breath and pushed the door open. Blake was sitting on the black leather chair behind the desk, looking at me, poker-faced. "Are the children asleep?" Blake asked about the children. I nodded and took a look at Blake. Then I lowered my head, trying to figure out how to tell him about it. Not only did Gina hurt me, but she also lied t
Blake's POV After Catherine left, I was not in the mood to work anymore. I lit a cigarette, took a few puffs, and looked up at the closed door. The door wasn't pushed open again till midnight. It meant that she gave up on the idea of making a deal with me. At the thought of this, I was even more upset. She was so ridiculous. She acted as if nothing had ever happened after tempting me. The next morning, she held Hedwig's hand and walked into the dining room. I sat at the dining table. Noah was sitting next to me, already having his breakfast. "Morning, mommy!" Noah greeted her smilingly. "Morning!" Catherine patted Noah's head. "Noah, I dreamed of you last night!" Hedwig said with a smile. "What was I doing?" Noah asked curiously. Hedwig immediately said loudly, "You were taking a dump on the bed in my dream. It was so stinky that I woke up." I was eating, and her words almost made me choke. Catherine could not help but chuckle. Noah turned pale with anger, poi
Blake's POV After kissing Catherine this morning, I was in a particularly good mood. A day of tense and busy work passed again, and I went home early to accompany Noah and Hedwig. When Catherine walked into the parlor, I was watching the kids playing and enjoying themselves. "I'm so happy to finally have a holiday tomorrow!" Noah was jumping around in the parlor, talking non-stop. Hedwig ran beside him with a smile. "Noah, I want to go for a picnic tomorrow. What do you think?" "Sure! I'm already excited!" Noah had a rare look of childlike innocence on his face. "Noah, let's go for a picnic. And we should let daddy and mommy come with us together. I'm sure it'll be fun!" said Hedwig. "What are you little things talking about?" Catherine came in and asked with a smile. "Mommy, you came back just in time. Noah and I are talking about having a picnic tomorrow." Hedwig smiled happily when she saw Catherine. Then she held Catherine's hand tightly and looked up at Catheri
Blake's POV When the kids heard that there was a picnic tomorrow, they were so happy and ran back and forth in the parlor. For now, I shared my room with Noah on the second floor. Our room was next to Catherine and Hedwig's room. I went to the second floor and stood at the door of my room. Suddenly, someone opened the door next to the room and didn't close it. The feeling of kissing Catherine this morning flashed across my mind. Her lips were soft and fragrant, with the sweet smell of milk. I was addicted to kissing her at once. I didn't know if it was because I hadn't found my mate for too long. Yet somehow, I felt that the kiss made me lose control in the blink of an eye. My wolf began to stir again, and I also felt suffocated. I reached out and wanted to push open the door, while someone beat me to it. Catherine had changed from her suits and stood in front of me in a loose blouse. My hand that was about to push open the door froze in midair. When I saw the tw
Catherine's POV I was forced to agree to Blake's terms, and I was about to leave in frustration. But I still felt unwilling. After a few steps, I suddenly turned back and asked, "Blake, tell me, are you seeing someone?" Blake was stunned and frowned slightly. "Who said that?" "No one. I just want to hear it from you." I didn't want to tell him that when he was drunk that night, I heard something I shouldn't have heard. "No. You are the first so far," Blake said seriously. I could not be sure whether he was telling the truth. I frowned. "The deal is off once I find out you're lying." "Don't worry. There will be no other woman," replied Blake. When I met his firm eyes, my heart trembled slightly. His eyes were deep and glowing, making my face a bit hot. I didn't dare to look him in the eye anymore. I quickly turned around and went downstairs in a panic. After dinner, I took my son and daughter for a walk in the garden. "Mommy, when we were eating just now, I foun
