Chapter 5

But the man only held my hand tightly, handsome face indifferent without a trace of expression.

It was a decision that could not be refuted.

"Since you do not want to go out, go to the killer group training. I see that your wolf still needs to be improved, and trained properly, maybe there are more uses for it." Henry opened his mouth lightly, but he beat Kylie to a dead end completely.

Go to the killer group to train?

The Chadwick wolf pack's combat prowess is well renowned both far and wide, especially when it comes to detecting and killing in the invisible, so even if I have no idea what type of training it is, I could tell from the name that it's not simple.

The girl standing in front of me appears to be a noble in the wolf pack, and she seems unsure if she will be able to survive that dangerous place. Even if she does, she will have to go through severe suffering and misery.

The surrounding maids sucked in a breath of cold air in their hearts, not even daring to give this little girl a sympathetic look. The Alpha was more aggressive and dictatorial than the previous Alpha had ever been. It is not at all surprising that the wolves were seized from the former Alpha's possession.

"I don't want anything like this to happen again. You all go and get busy, or if you feel too idle, you can go and get stronger training." Henry kept taking my hand and ordered his entourage.

"No, no..." Kylie snapped out of her shock, only to be frozen by a look from the assistant behind Henry early on. Two burly men immediately took her away to the assassin's group.

Linda walked up to Henry with her heart in her mouth and looked at us respectfully and apologetically, "I'm sorry Miss Jasmine, it was my fault for not protecting you."

"It's not your fault, Linda." I hadn't recovered from the shock just now and shook my head at her in a hurry.

I realized my hand was still being held, my palm was sheepishly stained with sweat, and his warmth passed through, making my heart tremble slightly and blush uncontrollably as I subconsciously tried to pull my hand away.

Henry did not seem very happy with my struggle, "What's wrong?"

He turned his head to look at me, his blue eyes shining with an incomprehensible light.

"I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you." I blurted out, not knowing if he minded or not, but looking at the messy dining room, I insisted on expressing it.

When Henry heard this, the corners of his lips curled slightly and he continued to hold my hand quite frankly, "So, how do you want to make it up to me?"

Me, "?"

Compensate?

Did he want me to make amends?

Why do I have the feeling that I am being teased by him?

"I, I'll clean it up..." Looking at the messy table, I had a bright idea to avoid his questioning

"Little fool, if you must clean anything up then go upstairs, I’ll give you a dressing for your injury." He immediately pulled me up with great strength, and almost picked me up.

He was tall and fit.

I couldn't help but blush when I touched the muscles on his body.

But he didn't seem to feel it, pulling me up the stairs.

The heat seemed to penetrate my skin and reach my cells as the broad palm wrapped my hand.

So much so that I forgot to refuse.

He sat me down on the sofa and took a cotton swab to wipe the blood from the corner of my mouth, his handsome face was right in front of mine, his warm breath made me blush even more, and I hastily tried to dodge, "you don’t have to, it's okay, thanks..."

But I didn't notice when the pillow behind me was removed, and I fell backwards on the sofa.

Henry subconsciously tried to hold me up, but he didn't expect to be pulled down with me.

He was almost on top of me, and we were so close that I could easily feel the changes in his body.

And his lips that almost reached the tip of my nose.

His bright eyes glowed and his breathing increased a little.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." My heart almost jumped out of my chest and I pushed him away in a panic.

What's all this about?

He wouldn't think I had deliberately seduced him and throw me out, would he?

"You're just as beautiful as you were when you were a kid, Jasmine." He looked at me intently, his blue eyes burning and ambiguous.

It made me almost sink, but I caught his words and looked up in confusion, "When I was a kid? We knew each other when we were kids..."

"Knock knock..."

Just as I was about to ask questions to clarify my doubts.

There was a knock at the door.

Henry stood up and walked over to open the door.

"Alpha, Mario's calling..." The person who came was his escort Blake, whom I had just met downstairs.

Even though his later words were said behind the shut door.

I still heard the name Mario... my heart seized.

Was it father?

Why would he call Henry?

Would he tell Henry about the lack of wolves in me?

I suppose not. My father, despite not liking me, was not so cruel as to drive me to the point of death.

Not to mention my mother.

Maybe he and mother were just worried about my situation...

I stood up a little frustrated and uneasy.

The ambiguity and heartfelt feelings just now were all gone, only helplessness and worry.

No one would unconditionally take in someone like me who didn't have a wolf in her body and perhaps would only bring a drag to the wolves.

What if father tells him the truth?

Will I be driven out again?

I fidgeted in the packed room and finally couldn't bear to open the door and head for the study.
