Harrison's POV

As 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."

    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?""

    Kayla's POV "Harrison!" I followed Harrison into his room, stumbling and breathless. Leaning against the wall, I gazed at the expressionless Harrison. "What did you just do? Blair is still..." "She won't trouble you anymore." Harrison took a step closer, gently tucking a strand of hair that had fallen onto my forehead behind my ear. "I promise you." "But I didn't argue with her just to make you kick her out, Harrison." Though the conflict between Blair and me couldn't be resolved, I didn't want Harrison to distance himself from his mother because of me. "I know." The room was dimly lit, allowing me to notice a glimmer of moisture in Harrison's deep eyes."The decision to remove my mother is not only to protect you, Kayla, but also for my own sake." Harrison's tone was heavy. “Before you brought Daisy back into my life, I always felt like my mother was my only family. So, even though I saw her bowing down to the Elder Council, even though she defied my decisions as an Alpha c

I put down the book in my hands, looking at my daughter, whose face was filled with curiosity, ready to face her questions."Did you have a fight with Nathan, Mom?" But this question caught me off guard. I froze for a moment until Daisy shook my hand, finally reacting.I ruffled Daisy's little head and asked back, "Of course not. Why would you think that, honey?""Because I haven't seen Nathan for a very, very long time..." Daisy pouted, showing a rare look of grievance. "And he hasn't even called me. Mom, does Nathan not like me anymore, so he's not contacting me?""Of course not." I smiled to reassure my daughter. "Nathan likes you the most! The reason he hasn't visited for a long time is that we moved to this place, and it's not convenient for Nathan to come in.""Really?" Daisy tilted her head, her round eyes scrutinizing my expression as if trying to discern the truth

I brushed the dust off my clothes, a hint of annoyance in my tone. "You nearly scared me to death!""Sorry, Kayla." Nathan gave me an apologetic smile. "I thought it was... Anyway, Kayla, you haven't answered my question. Didn't you tell me before that you were planning to move with Daisy? Where are you living now?""Well, at a friend's place." I still remembered the tension between Nathan and Harrison, so I evaded the question with a vague response."What about you, Nathan? You disappeared for so long. What happened?""It's a long story."In the darkness, I heard Nathan sigh deeply. Just when I thought he might change the subject, I heard his voice again, this time filled with determination and openness."You already know, don't you?"I immediately realized what Nathan was referring to, but I remained silent and didn't answer.When I didn't r

At the same time, I had also promised Nathan not to reveal his and The Blue Blood Pack's secrets to anyone

"And whose fault is that?""Okay, my bad."Harrison chuckled lightly, making a surrendering gesture. "I have an idea that might help you.""What... Ah!"Unexpectedly, Harrison lifted me again. But this time, he strode purposefully toward the direction of the bathroom."What are you trying to do...

    Harrison's POV"I heard from my grandfather that you took Kayla to my family a few days ago. Why didn't you let me know in advance?"Peter's voice preceded his figure as he entered my study, moving faster than his shadow.I looked up, watching Peter, dressed in a refined and elegant suit, stride into my room. Clearly, he had rushed over from some social event immediately upon receiving my call."Did you happen to run into that b.astard Donald? He didn't do anything out of line, did he?"At the mention of Donald, Peter's face still wore that contemptuous expression, as if merely uttering the name had tainted his noble lips."I came to visit your grandfather Michael, so I didn't tell you. As for Donald Rufus, well."Although Michael, being my elder in terms of age, deserved a more respectful address, it was normal for me, as an Alpha, to refer to him by name. As for Donald Rufus, I snorted, expressing my attitude toward him with a disdainful sound."Visit him? Isn't that quite sudden?"

He pressed the answer button, "Hello?""Uncle, this is Ulric," Ulric spoke a little hesitantly, not as decisively as he usually did."I know, is there anything I can do to help?" Liam changed his old authoritarian and angry voice to a gentle one. He knew Ulric must be in a difficult situation, otherwise, he wouldn't have called him, especially since he was so proud."I have a good friend, you know, Vince, who has been in trouble lately," Ulric said.Ulric and Vince grew up together in New York, and Liam knew Vince and liked him a lot."Oh, that guy, what's wrong?"
