There were two men in the room.

One person has a white beard as he already looks old. He was the one who greeted Alpha Rohan casually, no, it was more like welcoming a subordinate who was late for the work time. But Alpha Rohan was the leader of a region. I'm sure no one tops him at Northern.

‘So who is this old man…’

"You just need to know, I've tried hard to bring him here, Alpha Rohan. So I expected a long holiday."

And another man was sitting next to the old man. He made me quite surprised as soon as I saw him. Because he has silver hair, too. At first glance, he bears a resemblance to Alpha Rohan, especially in his sharp facial structure. But he has blue eyes.

I thought he would only introduce me to one of his doctor friends, but two people appeared. Which of them is a doctor?

It's hard to guess because their appearance is nothing similar to that of a doctor I usually meet. But if I wanted to gamble, I would choose the old man with a white beard as he lost his hair in the front.

    “…You are allowed.”In a room like this, of course, it will be difficult to carry out an assessment correctly. Even though this doctor doesn't look like a doctor, perhaps because he needed to disguise his appearance to come here, I can see the sincerity in his eyes. It was as if he was worried about me…. no, it's not me he's worried about, but something else that reminds him when he sees me."So that you are comfortable and I am also comfortable, I will check it from here. Excuse me.” The old doctor touched my stomach carefully.“Tch,”And just beside me, there is a person who, for some reason, has been acting childishly since earlier.It was Alpha Rohan.He clicked his tongue as the old doctor moved his hand around my stomach. I don't know what made him not content with some of the things that happened here when he was the one arranging this meeting. So I decided to call out his attitude.“Did you just -tch- me?”Alpha Rohan flinched. “No. Not to you.”"Then?"“Of course, to him. Loo

    “Even though the lady's baby bump isn't as big as it usually looks for a six moths old pregnancy, I believe yours is six and a half months old.”I opened my mouth and closed it again, unable to think of anything to say for the second there.In nine lifetimes, a doctor never mentioned that number to me. Never once. Even when I prostrated myself begging at their feet for them to tell the truth.“What's wrong? Is this a big deal? Alpha Rohan? Lady Princess?”I breathed through my mouth as I looked into Doctor Barra's glazed eyes. He looked at me with confusion evident on his tired face. I want to say something, but I can't, still.I could feel the lump filling my chest slowly rising to the surface, filling the path of my throat. It was just about time I had to say something to him, but I choked on my own emotions.Then someone took over what I was about to ask him. lots of questions."Uncle, are you sure about that?"Doctor Barra narrowed his eyes. He looked offended as he replied with,

    “A spell? What are you talking about?”“This is, uhm, so… hah,”I saw how Doctor Barra looked uncomfortable when he was about to explain it. One of the reasons may lie in Alpha Rohan. He always stole glances at Alpha Rohan as he brought up this topic."What is it?" I ask.Doctor Barra gathered his hands together in a grip on the table. He looked at me, then said."Lady Princess, isn't it strange that the werewolves doctors couldn't properly assess your pregnancy?"I nodded as I had no other assumptions."Even though my theory needs to be proven by cross-examining with the other human doctors, isn't this idea reasonable? Moreover, this situation is similar to one I have dealt with before.”“What kind of situation?”"It was my mother." Alpha Rohan interrupted, and his answer threw me surprise.“My mother once experienced a condition where she always felt itchy and sore on her skin. But not a single doctor could treat it because the symptoms my mother mentioned were not visible to the ey

    I couldn't convey to him that my pregnancy was a little different than those I had experienced before in my past lives. I don't know if this is related to the changes I made, but what is clear is that I feel uneasy about my current pregnancy condition.My stomach wasn't as big as it had been in the past, and I couldn't ask the palace doctor about this condition.Even when I pay attention, Luelle's stomach looks bigger than mine even though her gestational age is younger than mine."Lady Princess, I don't know what kind of environment you are living in right now, but as a doctor, I want to tell you to... don't let the child in your womb struggle too hard.""… What does it mean?"“What I mean is… please eat a lot, drink a lot, and most importantly, avoid stress.”I swallowed my saliva hard. I could taste the bitterness in the back of my throat. The palace doctor also always conveyed that message to me, but why, this time it sounded… heartbreaking?I stroked my stomach, then said softly.

    “Your Highn— Rohan? What are you doing here?” Rojja let go of the cigarette in his mouth and put it back in the pack before he could light it. He looked behind Rohan, then looked back into his cousin's eyes. “Why are you outside already? I thought your business would take longer… though.”Rohan snatched the cigarette pack in Rojja's hand, took a cigarette from inside, and then put it between his lips. He gave a certain look to Rojja, who then scoffed. Rojja shook his head before striking the lighter, then aimed the flame at the tip of Rohan's cigarette.Rohan was leaning back against the wall, idly smoking. Rojja also started smoking beside him.It was known that Northerners liked to smoke tobacco, but their cigarettes were different from those of the continent. The hazy fog that disperses from the smoke is quite unique as it has a purple color. The cool yet subtly sweet scent filled his nostrils. It was supposed to relax him, but… he pulled out his cigarette with a frown.“Sh#t, why

    “About her pregnancy.” “Ah…” Rohan nodded quietly, accepting. He already guessed that the ‘condition’ Rojja was referring to was about her pregnancy. But he didn’t like it when Rojja put Sashal’s pregnancy down as her flaws. It wasn’t a flaw in his eyes. So he almost snapped when Rojja put her like that. Luckily, he could still control his anger because he remembered that Sashal was there. Meanwhile, in front of him, Rojja looked restless as he kept opening and closing his mouth like a fish stranded on land while there was a bear in front of him. “Out with it already.” Rohan clicked his tongue as he kept his fierce glare toward Rojja. Rojja took a deep breath and then dropped his shoulders. He tried to look Rohan in the eye but immediately lowered them when he saw the craziness in Rohan’s eyes. He opened his mouth after taking a deep breath. “I don’t know whether she is still with her husband or the father of her child, but I’m sure you can beat whoever that poor man is. So ther

    “He-hey,” Doctor Barra's body was lifted ten centimeters from his seat. He just glared, then blinked confusedly. “What are you doing to an old man like me, bastard?!”"Why is she crying then?" Rohan yanked Doctor Barra's collar roughly."Because she's sad, of course!" Doctor Barra kept tapping Rohan's hand.“…Why is she sad in the first place? She's just recovering when I left her, but— you, with your words, are—”“…Get out.”Rohan turned around.It was Sashal. She buried her face in her hands as she uttered those words. It wasn't clear who she said those words to, but it made Rohan release his grip on Doctor Barra's collar.“Princess… are you—”“Get out. Now. Please.” Sashal's voice just now sounded hoarse and choked.His head went blank. He was too stunned to speak.Watching Sashal keep her head down and cover her face from Rohan sent thorns all over his body. Rohan felt like his insides were being ripped out. His breathing became heavy as he saw Sashal shaking again. That was what

    “Why… are you taking your time walking slowly?” Sashal asked, quite wondering why as she knew Rohan could carry her just fine, even with running.“Hmm, because there's no reason to rush. You said the deadline was three hours before your lady-in-waiting reported you missing, right?”Sashal tilted her head to look into Rohan's eyes, who were princess-carrying her. “What do you want to do with it?” She asked.“I'm just saying that we still have a little time left until the time comes. I just need to take you speeding when the time is near the end.”Sashal glanced around. “Well, then, let me down. Let me walk.”Rohan shook his head, tightening his embrace. “Nope. You've used up a lot of your energy just for tonight only. I can't have you tired."Sashal sighed. “I'm not, though.”“You are.”“I'm not. What have I done anyway? I just sit, eat, and sit some more.”Sashal probably didn't realize it, but her lips kinda pouted when she said that. That made Rohan tighten his jaw in case he burst

    “Ruri will come here?” Sashal sounded excited. “Yeah, she is. But I need to scold Menitto first for giving news about you to the other party.” “Come on, you know Menitto moved because of my orders. He did it because I wanted Ruri to also hear this good news on time.” Sashal pout. It melted Rohan's heart so much that he couldn't help but smile. “Alright, alright, you can have fun with your friends. But, are you sure you're okay?" “Yeah. Thanks to the herbal medicine I made, my body felt lighter after giving birth. And I recovered quite quickly." “You're still pale.” “But I'm fine, really. I know very well how unbearable the pain was after giving birth to Roschal, so I know that my current condition is the best.” Rohan frowned. "I still regret I couldn't keep you company during those hard times." “You don't have to. We just played our respective roles at that time.” Sashal kissed the back of Rohan's palm. “By the way, how long will Ruri visit?” “Ah, about that, I also want to di

    The night felt agonizingly prolonged, with each passing minute stretching their apprehension. It was only when the first light of dawn graced the sky, followed by the long-awaited sound, that a sigh of relief finally escaped the lips of everyone outside the room. With the rising sun, Rohan passes through the big door with a bouquet and baby Roschal in his arms.He arranged the flowers in a large vase quite skillfully, like someone who was used to doing it. It was unimaginable coming from an Alpha. After that, he sat on a chair next to the bed."How are you feeling, my princess?" Rohan stretched out his hand to caress Sashal's head.“It never gets better than this, dear,” Sashal answered with a chuckle despite her pale face.Watching Sashal's expression, Rohan couldn't stop himself from kissing her pale face. Not only he but baby Roschal also doesn't want to lose to his father. He hugged and kissed the face of his mother, whom he had not seen for four days. He did it well enough that S

    Not only do we have to fight the legendary creature for which we don't have the right answers, but we also have to fight against time. Everything seemed to be moving faster than usual, even though the Calamity had not yet been fully pushed to the point we agreed on. If it continues like this until the sun disappears behind the horizontal, then what we are trying to do will be meaningless.“We need more people on our side to make the Calamity come to that spot on its own accord, out of frustration.”Alpha Deen had the same thoughts as me. I nodded as I looked towards the Northern warriors. They glanced at each other. I could understand their hesitation about becoming the raw bait to lure the Calamity. Meanwhile, Rohan and the others on the other side didn't look like they were in good condition after fighting nonstop. It had been going on for over four hours, and time was not on our side.“I'll do it. But you know that with just one person, it won't attract his attention. So, you have

    Out of surprise, the steps that stopped suddenly slowly found their rhythm again despite signs of hesitation by the warriors. However, it was not visible from Alpha Duke Gustaav and Kaesang as they made their steps so clear. Seeing the fearless temperament of the two men, Jermaine became even more agitated.“How dare all of you! How dare you challenge me here!” He created even more duplicates of his wolf, probably hoping the Alpha Dukes would stop in their tracks.When Alpha Duke Gustaav and Kaesang stopped in their tracks, he smirked. He glanced curtly at me, then bared his teeth.“You guys aren't going anywhere. I'll make sure you receive the same punishment as that traitor!”“Traitor? Who?" Alpha Duke Gustaav retorted in a sharp tone. “Ah, you're talking about yourself?”"What?"“Your Majesty, ah no, nephew, don't you dare get in our way to fix the mess you've made.” Alpha Duke Kaesang warned."What are you talking about?"“Stop your damn whining, Alpha King.

    “Ugh,”As the ground began to swallow us, Rohan tried to lift my sinking body. He dug the ground around me with his claws while Ansel shouted.“It's me! Ansel! It's me!”He kept shouting those words out of his lungs several times as if that could stop what was happening.I couldn't grasp my mind as panic enveloped my whole body. I tried to only focus on getting the lower part of my body out of the ground while not burdening Rohan who managed to free himself from this terrible pull.“I'll get you out. Don't worry." Rohan kept calming me, who was starting to feel numb to everything around me, apart from the sound of my heartbeat, which filled my head.At that moment, like a miracle, the ground stopped rumbling all of a sudden. Like it never swallows us. 'Huh?'“Damn it! Finally!” Ansel cursed, but I could catch the tone of relief from his curse just now.Before long, I could understand why.Several people were standing on the surface of the land that had not collapsed, surrounding us. “

    “Beta Duke Avimelech, what is this madness? I'm sure now that you helped that woman escape, stage it as she died tragically. And there is also that Alpha. Hah, so you're also a traitor.” Gamma Marquise Blaine glares at us each, spitting bars of slander.There's a hint of fear in his trembling eyes, yet he dares to bark at us. I'll have to give him a round of applause next time.“Whatever you say, sir. You can accuse me of being a traitor or whatever, only if you get out of here safely, though.”“Guards!” With his calling, all the guards gather shielding him and his companion. “Did you just threaten to kill us all, Beta Duke Avimelech?!”Rohan bursts out laughing. “Haha, haaa… It's not us, you moron. Have you forgotten where you are now? The Calamity can easily swallow all of you. What a jester. And you worked with these clowns for years, dear?”“Exactly, my words.” I shook my head.“Wait~ What is this~ Have you all… haaaa, also see the former queen? Huh? Am I not the only one who saw

    A huge chaos and crisis was unfolding before my eyes. I still vividly remember how this small town alive even though the darkness of night shrouded it. But now all of that is engulfed in a big fire. We literally bathed in a sea of fire.The only reason why we were still fine despite the flames that enveloped us was thanks to Alpha Deen's divine energy. I'm not sure how his ability works, but it kind of protects us from being touched by fire.Even though I couldn't really feel the heat of the fire surrounding us, my chest felt tight, as if all the air had disappeared. My hands are shaking. And after a suffocating silence, I stretched my hand out to Rohan. He grabbed my hand.I can see this choice happening because of two possibilities. One, the desperate actions of the survivors to keep the Calamity away from them, or Jermaine ordering the burning of this entire city.This guess was reflexively projected in my mind because he often advised me to burn things he considered useless. He a

    “I should have seen this coming and put another guard beside him on your side. But picturing two men following you around everywhere ticks me off so much.” A low growl sounded out under his rough breath.I could understand from his gaze why he felt upset at this situation. I would probably feel upset if I were in his position. He is accustomed to leading people who obey his orders and put aside their personal ideas for the community's welfare. But now he meets someone like me as his Luna.In this part, I admit my mistake towards Rohan. So I need to do that to appease his upset. I glanced at Alpha Deen and Sir Rojja, who were acting indifferent, although I'm not sure if they were really indifferent to our conversation. I still have to do it even though I have to bear the shame for the rest of my life.I took a breath from my mouth, then let out the spell. “I miss you soooo much that everything in front of me reminds me of you.

    After receiving solace after a long time from the letter written by Ruri, a painful realization came to me instead. Because what I consider a brief entertainment is a misery for almost everyone in Southern Olf. They lost two important figures at the highest level of command, who were supposed to help them reorganize the state order.Well, I don't know how they look at Luelle, whether they feel they can lean on her or even think of her as nothing. But it's different with Jermaine, their Alpha King.They have relied on the authority of the Alpha King for many years, from generation to generation. And so far, their life in Southern Olf is not so bad because of the sense of security provided by Alpha King's predecessors, then now by Jermaine and... me, to be honest.Knowing it's frail, it must be devastating as they can't hang on to Jermaine's rope. They must be afraid that the more they cling to the rope, the more they fall. Their best shot right now is to depend on high-ranking wolves f
