Kayla's POV

"So, you mean Harrison withdrew his offer for you to join The Dark Night Pack to ensure your and Daisy's safety and didn't want to involve you in potential danger," Amber said.

"That's right," I looked at Amber in front of me and let out a long sigh. "Now I finally understand your feelings back then, Amber. These arrogant men always think they can shoulder all responsibilities and risks, protecting us under their wings, but they never consider our feelings."

"Well, Kayla," Amber said, mocking me with a helpless expression. "If I remember correctly, you were quite supportive of Peter's decision that day, weren't you? Let me think, how did you say it... Oh, right—Peter has his reasons for doing this. Only by ensuring my safety and the child's safety can he focus on what he's about to do..."

"Enough, Amber," I blushed, unable to contain my embarrassment. "I apologize to you. I indeed didn't consider your feelings..."

"Don't say that, Kayla," Amber held my hand, her eyes fille

  • Return with the Alpha's Secret Baby   105 Our Promise

    Amber's POVWhen I parked the car in front of our home, Peter was there to greet me, and he looked furious."For the sake of the Moon Goddess, Amber!" Peter opened the car door, grabbed my arm, and pulled me out. He hastily guided me towards the mansion."What's gotten into you, driving out of Harrison's territory alone, Amber? Do you have any idea that when Harrison told me about this, I was so nervous my heart almost stopped beating?""Calm down, Peter," I protested, freeing my wrist from his grasp. "I'm standing right in front of you, perfectly fine, aren't I?""Looks like you still don't realize what's wrong, Amber," Peter retorted impatiently, adjusting his tie as if releasing some pent-up anger."Amber. You're a mother now. Do you know that your reckless behavior could put you and our child in danger?""And what about you, Peter?" Peter's irate reaction made me abandon the soft-spoken comfort and explanation I had planned along the way.I defiantly confronted Peter, meeting his

    Amber's POV"Now, tell me, Peter."I turned over in bed, still dazed, and locked eyes with Peter in the darkness, his eyes gleaming. "How far has the situation between you and Donald developed?""Well, darling, I was just..."I could see the hesitation in Peter's expression, so I quickly made my stance clear."Listen, Peter! Don't even think about using those excuses like 'it's my own business' or 'you just need to worry about the baby' to evade my questions!""OK, OK! Put away your claws, my dear little kitty." Peter raised his hands, surrendering with a smile. Then, he grabbed my hand, bringing it to his lips and gently kissing my fingertips."I promise you, from now on, I will tell you everything. After all, why did the Moon Goddess choose you, this naughty little wolf, to be my mate?""Don't use sweet talk to distract me, Peter!"Pretending to be angry, I pulled my hand from Peter's and shyly pushed his chest."Now, tell me, what's the current situation with Donald Rufus?""Well,

    Kayla's POV"Tell me, Kayla, you let Amber go, didn't you?"Even though it was a question, I had already discerned Harrison's attitude towards the matter from his unchanging expression."Yes, Harrison."I nodded without hesitation and admitted, "I took Amber to the parking lot, gave her the car keys, and told her the route to leave The Dark Night Pack.""Why did you do that?"Harrison's hands clenched into fists quickly, as if he was trying to restrain his anger."That night, you clearly heard Peter's words. He entrusted Amber to me, asking me to protect her and her...""Protect?"I raised my voice, interrupting Harrison."Yes, in your and Peter's eyes, this arrangement is for Amber's protection. But have you considered Amber's feelings? As Peter's wife, what she needs isn't protection but to be by her husband's side, facing the upcoming challenges and dangers together!"Harrison's fist slammed down on the coffee table, producing a loud sound."Do you know how immature this idea is, K

  • Return with the Alpha's Secret Baby   108 Mutual Understanding

    Kayla's POVAfter I assured Daisy multiple times that we would continue to live in The Dark Night Pack and stay by Harrison's side, Daisy finally showed a contented expression and went to sleep in her room.Shortly after Daisy fell asleep, my phone rang – it was a call from Amber."Thank goodness, you finally remembered to call me," I quickly answered the call and playfully complained to Amber."I'm so sorry, Kayla. I got home very late, and then... uh, my baby was a bit restless in my belly, so I went to bed early that night. I just got a chance to call you and let you know I'm safe today."Hearing Amber's voice with a hint of girlish shyness, I could probably guess what had happened between her and Peter last night.Suppressing my laughter, I cleared my throat and didn't expose Amber's little lie. "That's good, as long as you get home safely. Did Peter say anything to you?""Not really," Amber replied cheerfully. But in the next moment, she seemed to be worried about me. "What about

    Kayla's POV"But Harrison, you clearly promised me! From now on, no matter what happens, we'll be by each other's side! This time is no exception!"I stared into Harrison's eyes, expressing my discontent."But, darling, Daisy still needs your care," Harrison said, gently trying to persuade me to stay, with a touch of appeasement in his tone."Besides, after we received that list, I've already had my people investigate the backgrounds of every family. The family I'm visiting today has the least likelihood of being involved in the conspiracy from back then. So, I won't encounter any danger, my love,"Harrison explained. Harrison's explanations didn't ease my concerns.I continued to gaze at him, refusing to back down."Daisy has a nanny to take care of her. Moreover, if you say today's visit is safe, then bringing me along won't cause you any inconvenience, will it?""Kayla!"Seeing he couldn't persuade me, Harrison's tone became more serious.He placed his hands on my shoulders and tri

    Harrison's POVAs if the words on the marble slab had seared her, Kayla immediately withdrew her gaze and turned to me for help."Is this...?" she said, her voice trembling.In contrast to Kayla's panic, my emotions remained eerily calm. I stared back into her frightened eyes and responded evenly, "Yes, this estate belongs to Peter's family.""But..." Kayla's voice was filled with hope as she inquired further, "So, are you here to see Peter today?""No, Kayla," I replied, crushing her last shred of hope. My voice was devoid of emotion. "I'm here to meet the Alpha of the Rufus family because the dying waiter gave me the first surname, Rufus.""But..." Kayla began again, her voice anxious."Relax, Kayla, we will be fine," I reassured her while squeezing her hand, but my gaze remained locked on the stone slab bearing the name Rufus.At that moment, even I couldn't distinguish whether I was referring to Kayla and me, Peter and me, or the entire Rufus family when I spoke of "we."The heavy

    Kayla's POVI turned my head along with Harrison's gaze and caught a glimpse of Donald Rufus striding towards us, his smug expression on full display. I immediately averted my eyes and let out a cold snort."Mr. Rufus."Harrison's voice was devoid of warmth, but his furrowed brow betrayed his disdain for Donald."I believe we haven't reached a level of familiarity where we can address each other by name."Perhaps with the backing of some newfound influence, Donald's audacity had evidently grown. He stood arrogantly in front of Harrison, and there was even a hint of provocation in his tone."Well, I don't see it that way, Harrison. Since you've come to my home, it implies that our relationship is intimate enough, doesn't it?"Donald's eyes roamed, and he even cast a lecherous look in my direction, flashing a sinister grin.Harrison, noticing that, immediately positioned himself in front of me, and his gaze at Donald turned dark in an instant."Are you trying to test my patience?""Wow

    Kayla's POV"Michael must be getting old and losing his mind to even consider Donald Rufus as a candidate for the Alpha position!"Harrison and I sat side by side in the car, and I patiently listened to Harrison express his disdain and contempt for Donald using various derogatory words."If it weren't for Peter and Michael, I would have dug out his eyes the moment he cast his filthy, lecherous gaze on you today, just to make him understand what provoking a real Alpha would lead to!""Relax, Harrison."I held Harrison's hand and leaned closer to him. "Don't let scum like him jeopardize the peace between you and the Rufus family. It's not worth it.""I know." Under my words, Harrison calmed down a bit."Now, I'm more curious about what kind of people could embolden Donald Rufus like that.""Well..."For some reason, I suddenly had an image of Elizabeth's exquisite yet icy face in my mind.Harrison noticed the change in my expression. He looked at me and asked, "What are you thinking?""

    15 years later,"Have you thought about it?" Ely raised his eyes and asked with a gentle smile. "would you like to bet with me?""Why not? We've been betting all my life, and I hardly ever lose." Pearl sneered at him contemptuously. "But I'll up the ante: If I win, you give me your medical project."Ely remained calm.

For as long as Ulric could remember, Gwen only had stomach pains when she ate erratically, but since her stomach had recovered a lot under his care, Ulric couldn't understand why she fainted.Is she sick?
