I nodded. “I don’t know whether the rogue I killed had told me the truth about Dark or not. I am not even sure if Dark really exists,”
I murmured.
He was silent for a moment, “He exists or not does not matter. The matter is I can’t ignore the fact that you had been kidnapped because of it!”
his expression was very serious at this point.
“Reuben,”
Oran called that interupted our conversation. I looked at the doorway to the dining room to find Oran and Bix standing there.
“Beta Jin is here to meet with you,”
Oran gestured.
“Beta Jin?”
The name immediately clicked my mind as I looked at Reuben, “Is not that the Alpha King’s Beta?”
“I will be back,”
Reuben rubbed my head.
I nodded, watching him go to the backyard with Oran and Bix. For some reason I did not get a good feeling about it. “Willow ”
Mia knocked on the door. She had come to pick up the children just as I got a call from Lola regarding my work.
“Don’t accept any new projects for a while until I finish the current one at hand,”
I waved goodbye to the children as their car drove away from the clearing, speaking to Lola through the bluetooth earpiece in my ear.
“Are you sure you want to reject so many good projects, Willow?”
Lola hesitated, seeing as winning the fashion show had brought me a lot of juicy offers that were perfect for my career.
“It’s okay to reject a few and take it slow when I’m not there to handle things on my own. You already have enough to handle for me, so I don’t want to burden you with more. Besides, there are a few things happening here that I need to figure out,”
I explained as I entered the packhouse. Even though I had safely returned to the pack with Reuben, I hadn’t forgotten about the danger looming around Wade Moon, the mysterious attacks on werewolf packs, and Dark.
“Honestly, I believe I can handle it, but how will you explain it to Walter? Some of those projects are for his upcoming fashion shows,”
Lola pointed.
“I will talk to Walter, don’t worry,”
I assured her, hanging up the call and immediately dialing Walter’s number.
That man had disappeared once again since the day he exposed Ella. His luggage along with him. However, Lola claimed that he had not returned to Britain yet.
“Hello,”
after four rings he picked up the call.
“Walter, are you busy?”
I questioned collecting children’s toys from the living room floor.
“What’s the matter?”
his voice sounded strange as if he had been running or something.
“Can we meet? I have something important to talk to you about,”
saying that I stretched my hand out to grab a car toy from the table only to accidentally knock a glass causing the water spill over onto a chess board that Wyatt had been playing with last night.
As it happened, sudden images of a woman entering a room where two men were playing chess, while I spilled water in the same way I did just now, came to my mind, causing me to drop my phone on the ground in shock.
“I will meet you at City restaurant at one p.m.,”
Walter replied, but I was too shocked to hear his comment due to the image flashing in my mind.
What was that? Just now, I saw my mom, my dad, and Alpha Benjamin. Was it a memory I had lost? My mind felt foggy, and for some reason, my body felt paralyzed. Dad Mom
“Hello, Willow.
“Did you hear me?’
“Willow”
Walter’s voice came from the other side of the phone again and again, pulling me out of shock. Controlling my intense heartbeat and shaking limbs, I reached down to grab my phone from the floor.
Taking a deep breath, I said, “Okay, I will be there at one p.m.”
Putting my phone down, I remained frozen for a couple of seconds. After eleven years, that was the first time I had remembered something, and it was my dad and mom’s faces, which had slowly faded away from my memories. However, I hadn’t expected to see Alpha Benjamin there.
Why had I suddenly remembered it? Clutching my phone tightly, I decided to go visit Alpha Benjamin and talk to him about it. Maybe I could remember more!
Willow
Guests were a rare sight in the Emerald Bright Pack, especially those from other first-ranking packs that had the fortune to meet with Reuben. However, I never expected the King’s Beta to make an appearance in our pack. Well, considering Reuben’s royal bloodline, it should have been expected.
Preparing refreshments, I walked into the backyard with a tray, debating on whether or not to send an Omega to serve the King’s Beta would seem rude.
As soon as I stepped into the backyard, my eyes landed on the handsome middle-aged wolf with a strong aura, Beta Jin. He and Reuben were standing an arm’s length away from each other, engaged in what looked to be a serious conversation.
“Please, you have to come to the palace with me, Alpha Reuben,”
Beta Jin requested. As soon as I heard that, I stopped in my tracks. My hand tightened around the tray at the mention of the palace. Why did Reuben have to go there? It disturbed me so much that I failed to notice Beta Jin’s eyes were already on me.
He looked me up and down with emotionless eyes. Reuben turned to look at me, blocking Beta Jin’s view from my line of sight when he walked over to me. “Reuben, is there a problem?”
I asked.
“It’s nothing,”
Reuben shook his head, dismissing any concerns.
“Then why do you have to go to the palace?”
My heart grew restless.
