"What?" she asked, a bit shocked that Aiden just asked her which restaurant she preferred."We're having lunch. Which restaurant?" Aiden repeated as he maneuvered the car and started driving out of the parking lot of the building."Why would you go to restaurants when your food was delivered to your office?"Aiden arched his brow. "So you would calm down?"Erina's brows knitted even more. "Calm down on...what?"Aiden leaned against his seat while he was glancing at her sometimes while he was driving with his one hand."From that model, you are trying to point out that I took her to a restaurant?"Her eyes widened so much that even her jaw dropped as she blushed profusely. She could really feel how her cheeks heated, and she couldn't say anything right away."Sir, I didn't mean this. I only meant that you might prefer meeting up with the model in a private area where being at my office might disturb you.""The restaurant reservation was made by the company itself for the clients' comfo

When the food was served, one thing that Erina noticed was the food he ordered, which speaks so much about Arden Gunner's taste in food that she is quite familiar with because they used to eat together.Arden is quite fond of pasta, especially the medium-cooked steak, which Aiden also got for himself. He likes eating with a bottle of wine that I remember added to his appetite.He eats like a king, like royalty, which says a lot about himself. He would always use his left hand for the spoon and his right hand for the fork or the table knife.If he's Arden Gunner, with the uncanny similarities, why is he pursuing me when I know how much Arden Gunner loathes me to death?Unless...it was really him, he's here for revenge, and he will do the same thing I've done to him?"You don't like the food?" Aiden asked when he noticed she wasn't touching her food."I, uh, no. I'm just..." She blinked twice when she realized she had spaced out processing things."Look at the menu again. You might like

"I'm Erik, by the way," he introduced and smiled.Erina was stunned, taken aback, as she carefully knew it was really Erikson Remington, her brother.But then she left without saying a word. She left while being hated by all of them. She left, seeing the disappointment in Remington's faces, including the others—especially Mrs. Gunner, who loathes her to the core—as soon as everyone found out she was a witch; she was Aurora's daughter.But then, it was too late to explain now. She cannot clean her name anymore. She had been manipulated and used. She had been Aurora's victim; she took her from her own family and made her think she was her mother, but she wasn't.Now that she found her new life, away in Rockmount, where she already created her new home and where her family was, she was now determined to live with it. To stay where she was now and to protect her son from all of them, especially from Aurora herself."Can I get your number?" Erik handed his phone over, the desperation in hi

Aiden looked extremely shocked by her sudden outburst of anger. He didn't know where her anger was coming from as she was so different from earlier when he took her to dinner.He had memorized her behavior. Despite her hostility, she would always show respect because of her mentality that he was the boss and she was just one of his employees. But seeing the rage in her eyes right now and the immediate boundary she was putting between them, he could sense something wasn't right."Is there a problem?" he asked. His voice sounded serious and raw, demanding an answer."Just leave," she said seriously, pointing at the door. "I don't want you here. Leave," she said desperately, her eyes showing controlled anger.Aiden gulped a bit, wanting to ask more questions at her and squeeze her until she told him what was happening, but then he stopped himself.Erina looked stressed and desperate to protect whatever she thinks is dangerous at the moment. And she had completely dropped whatever respect

Erina was still panting over what happened when she heard her son's call. She lifted her head and saw Draven standing upstairs, looking at her. His expression looked shocked by the commotion that happened.She suddenly realized that Draven might have seen what she did and how she could move the things in the living room as they became so messy."Stay there for a while, Draven," she said as she stood by some of the things that were disarranged.She was a bit thankful that the Sanders were quite old enough, and they couldn't hear such noises at night because they sleep soundly.But then, with the realization that there were men who invaded the house and she heard them talking about how they had an idea she could control things because of her ability, she could really smell that someone from Rockmount had told them about it.She was so terrified that her dark past was now creeping into the nightmare she didn't want to occur in the city she was already in—in the mortal world. And worse, i

The two Sanders were highly convinced by Erina’s alibis about her getting distant from Aiden Arscott for the better. The two oldies were so worried for her, and it worsened more when they saw the other scratches on the living room—something really had disarranged it. If Erina didn’t clean up the mess, the two oldies might really prefer to just leave the house right then.But it wasn’t that easy to leave. The land was there, and even the ongoing harvesting was to be delivered to the company handled by Erina.Though Erina already covered the whole place, she wouldn’t let any of the wolves enter the houses again, but how about their safety? They can’t stay inside forever. There are everyday things they would do.Erina was having a hard time making some adjustments, but she needed to do it. She made sure that the two wouldn’t leave the house as she took Draven to school and talked to the head of the school about allowing him to homeschool instead, for some reason.She can’t just leave her

Aiden was already boldly expressing that he was Arden Gunner and that he knew she was Erina, the one who made him fall in love with her just to make a fool out of him.Erina suddenly remembered what he said about the woman she was trying to find, expecting she wasn’t dead yet. She doesn’t want to believe that Arden isn’t mad at her, because who wouldn’t be when she has already memorized and seen how Arden Gunner would never forgive anyone who did him wrong?“Leave and don’t ever come back again,” she said warningly, and she went back to the house.She saw Mrs. Sanders, who was peeking in the kitchen and immediately went back. Erina controlled her aching heart as she wanted to slap herself for feeling it for Arden.Now that she really confirmed Arden was Aiden Arscott, she could really tell that he was pursuing her to just imitate what she did to him in Rockmount.Her tears escaped as she wiped them off, as she didn’t want to feel any sympathy for him. If she went out and let him in, t

Erina was hesitating, but at the same time, she was thinking about asking Arden about what was happening when she left and why he was in the mortal world. Though she knows that he is looking for someone, now that she has confirmed that he is Arden Gunner, she doesn’t want to buy that excuse from him that he didn’t mean any harm. Arden approached her that night in his werewolf form, and she had no choice but to fall off the cliff rather than allow him to devour her. This was because the face of betrayal lingered in her mind.She slipped into the front seat and glanced at Arden, who was now looking at the food she had brought. He was opening it, and his expression lightened when he confirmed it was the chicken Alfredo whom Draven was talking about.“You cooked this?” He asked gently.She nodded and looked at the food as well. “If you’re not used to it, since I know you prefer the cook of a chef, like how you used to in Rockmount, then just don’t expect too much. I’m not a good cook.”Ar
