Jeric thought of approaching Lany when he saw her while he was walking around the market. He really waited for this moment as he wanted to apologize to her for not coming to the gathering held at the village. The vendors invited him but he wasn't able to come because of what Mary did.He felt guilty as he didn't expect that Mary would do such a thing to him. He really wanted to attend that gathering as he thought of that as a great chance to get along with Lany again.Lany just shook her head when Jeric suddenly appeared in front of her. She just averted her eyes and turned away from him. She breathed a sigh with disappointment in her face as well. She didn't want to see his face as of the moment because of annoyance.Jeric still followed Lany and he even held her hand to stop her from walking away from him."I'm sorry if I didn't come to the gathering at the village," Jeric said seriously when Lany turned to him."Don't say sorry to me. Say those words to the villagers who waited for
Lany felt nervous when she saw Jeric's mother approaching them, a few moments after Mr. Jones got near them."How are you, Ms. Lany Barnes? It's good to see you again," Mrs. Jones immediately said after getting near Lany and she even smiled at her.Lany smiled back, although it was a forced one. She felt awkward although Mrs. Jones greeted her nicely."Ah, yes, I almost forgot. Did Jeric already tell you that he finally found his alpha mate? Did you come here to congratulate him?" Mrs. Jones continued as she noticed Lany's expression. "The name of the female alpha who will be his mate soon was Mary. I'm sure they will have a great relationship.""Y-Yes, Mrs. Jones. Alpha Jeric already told me about her," Lany answered as she nodded towards Mrs. Jones."Come on, let's go for a walk. I'm going to tour you around the garden of our little palace," Mrs. Jones said.Then they started walking around the garden. Jeric didn't speak anymore to stop his mother as he noticed that she was in a goo
Edlyn went to her hometown to have a vacation as she wanted to relax even for a bit because of the pressure that she was feeling. Almost everyone there was busy preparing for the upcoming fiesta. Until she got to the street near their house. Her friends immediately felt happy when they saw her and they approached her excitedlyThey were in the middle of sharing their experiences when Mrs. Letty suddenly arrived while catching her breath and obviously in a hurry."Is there a problem, Mrs. Letty?" Edlyn immediately turned to her friend's mother with worries in her voice."They're here again to give us trouble, Edlyn," Mrs. Letty answered Edlyn. Then she turned to others who were there. "Please help us, fellow villagers. Those who wanted to kick us from our land came again," she said, almost in tears."Those people are really shameless. And they really came here even in the night just to harass us," Mr. Poldo, the leader of that village said angrily. "Get ready, fellow villagers. We're g
"I'm asking what is going on here," Edlyn spoke again but this time, in a loud voice.Mrs. Letty immediately felt worried and grabbed Lany's hand to pull her away from the armed soldiers."Please don't get involved in this, Edlyn. You might get hurt by them," Mrs. Letty immediately said with full worries in her voice."I can't help but intervene, Mrs. Letty as this was my hometown," Edlyn said in a hard voice. "Are they the ones who are harassing you and wanted to kick you out here in your land?"After saying that, Edlyn immediately got out of Mrs. Letty's hands and confronted the armed soldiers again. And that's the moment she recognized that Chadrick was the leader of the soldiers as she got close to him and their eyes met for a moment."I-It's you, Chadrick," Edlyn said as she was a little surprised."W-What are you..." Chadrick almost couldn't finish what he was going to say as he tried to control himself so that Edlyn wouldn't notice that he was drunk. "What are you doing here? W
It was already morning but Chadrick slept only for about two hours. It's because of his thinking endlessly about Edlyn. He even fell asleep at the headquarters of the New Moon Pack. And now that he woke up again, he immediately called Allan who was also there, to have a conversation with him. He asked him first to make two cups of coffee."Do you really plan to continue bothering me, Alpha Chadrick? I've only slept for almost an hour and here you are again," Allan complained as he followed Chadrick's request."Forgive me, Allan. It's just for now," Chadrick immediately replied to his soldier."Yeah, right. As if I can do anything about it?""That's why I asked you to make two coffees for the two of us," Chadrick continued. "Let's have more conversations until the morning sun rises.""What are we going to talk about? Is it about Edlyn again, your ex-partner who argued with you last night? We already talked about her over and over last night, Alpha Chadrick. You told me that you love he
Chadrick was stunned by what he heard from Mrs. Jones. He was surprised and almost couldn't speak."B-But, Mrs. Jones…" Chadrick couldn't finish what he wanted to say when Mrs. Jones continued speaking."Stay out of it now, Chadrick," there was an emphasis on every word that Mrs. Jones said. "I already came up with a plan. And they have no choice but to leave that place voluntarily."After saying that, Mrs. Jones turned her gaze to Allan."Allan, when you're finished with your coffee, get the car ready and we're going somewhere. We'll just have our breakfast outside.""No problem, Madame," Allan answered immediately.Then Mrs. Jones turned around and went outside.Chadrick then looked at Allan afterwards."Do you have any idea what she is planning about the villagers, Allan?" Chadrick immediately asked after Mrs. Jones left."I don't know. Maybe she doesn't want to argue with those villagers anymore and wants to end it as soon as possible," Allan answered.Chadrick thought of what All
"What brings you here, Alpha Jeric?" Lany asked as she looked at Jeric after approaching him."When I received your message, I immediately came here as I felt worried about Edlyn and the villagers here. I didn't know about this," Jeric replied as he also looked at Lany and they stared at each other."No need to explain. Besides, Edlyn told me that she was okay now.""Is that so?" Jeric answered as he nodded. "Wait, do you know what really happened here? Did Chadrick do something bad?""Actually, I don't know the whole story. It's better if we go inside the house and ask Edlyn about it," Lany answered Jeric.Jeric immediately agreed and followed Lany inside the house where Edlyn will stay for a few days."I'm sorry if Chadrick caused trouble here. If I knew about that, I would definitely stop him," Jeric immediately said when he got near Edlyn."It's okay. I already confronted him and he couldn't do anything but turned around and go back to where he came from," Edlyn answered as she sm
Chadrick was surprised when he got inside the house as he immediately saw Jeric there while talking to Lany and Edlyn.Edlyn was also surprised when she saw Chadrick get inside. She just kept quiet and did not speak when she saw that it was Mrs. Letty who welcomed him.They stared at each other for a moment when their eyes met but she immediately avoided looking at him.Jeric, on the other hand, immediately stood up as he saw Chadrick approaching them and then he asked him."Do you have anything to explain to me, Chadrick?" Jeric asked seriously while looking at Chadrick."I-I'm sorry, Alpha Jeric. I-I just followed Mrs. Jones's order," Chadrick replied in a calm voice and he bowed slightly to Jeric, who was in front of him."I understand you, Chadrick, that you're just doing what you're ordered to. What I'm curious about is if you've done anything bad to the residents of this place.""N-Nothing, Alpha Jeric. Although I admit that I was drunk during those moments," Chadrick said shyly
