Chapter 47

Alpha 47

“What?”

I was stunned by hearing him.

He answered, “Yeah, that’s what he wants.”

I gave him a headshake. “I can’t go there.”

After glancing inside the hotel room, he remarked, “What makes a hotel room so good? You know how luxurious our pack house is already.”

I arched an eyebrow. Realizing that he was hinting that I was Adrian’s ex–wife.

Naturally, every one of his officials was aware of their Alpha’s personal life. In truth, everyone learned about it by following social media posts.

“Give Alpha Lucas a call. I would like to speak with him.” I told

him.

Without any delay, he reached into the pocket of his pants and took out his phone.

He dialed Alpha Lucas’s number and handed his phone to me.

I took his phone and pressed it to my ear.

When the call came through to Alpha Lucas, I said,

“Uncle, I can’t stay there.”

“Natalia, why? Haven’t we discussed it yet?” he inquired.

“But Uncle, how can I live in the pack house?”

“You are our guest. Give us a chance to warmly welcome you.”

I let out a sigh. I was unsure about what action to take. I breathed deeply and closed my eyes.

“Okay, I am coming.” I replied.

I returned the phone to Delta Julian. After a while of conversation, he remarked to Alpha Lucas,

“I am bringing her to the pack house then.”

I went outside the hotel with Delta Julian after checking out.

I informed my driver over the phone that I was moving to the pack house. He asked if he would drop me there. I refused him by telling him that someone

Delta Julian opened the passenger door for me. I got inside the car. He went to the driver’s seat and started the car.

Through the windshield, I watched the passing road while I sat there in silence..

Delta Julian was silent while driving.

Suddenly, something popped into my mind. I turned my head to him and asked,

“Does your Alpha stay in the pack house?”

Adrian and I were married for two years, but Adrian never went there until his father asked us to have a family dinner. We had a separate house. That wa

Maybe over the past few years, his preferences have evolved.

“No. He often resides in the apartment owned by his company.”

I felt relieved. If he did not go there, then I would not have to face that man again.

It took us one hour to reach the pack house. When we entered the area, it started to remind me of the past times when I used to come here.

The car stopped in front of the entrance area, and Delta Julian got out of the car.

He came to open the door to assist me in getting out of the car.

As I got out of the car, I thanked him. He motioned me to the packing house.

As I got closer to the formidable pack house gate, my heart raced with a mixture of fear and excitement. Near the thick forest edge, the well– known building appeared to tell secrets from the past, each stone ringing with bittersweet memories.

It had not been an easy decision to come back here, even for a little while. Yet, the plea from Adrian’s father, once my father–in - law, was something I could not ignore. noveldrama

I pushed past the jumbled feelings that were on the verge of overpowering me, driven ahead by Adrian’s father’s health condition and the respect I still fe

The inside of the house seemed so warm as soon as I stepped inside; it was a far cry from the coldness of my fears.

Grace, Adrian’s mother, noticed me and came over.

“Thank you for coming to stay.”

Her eyes were displaying a mix of happiness and sadness.

“We just arrived a while ago. Lucas is in his room. Have you had

your dinner yet? Let’s have dinner together,” she said to me.

“Okay.”

She called a maid to show me my room. The maid’s expression changed when she saw me, indicating that she recognized me.

The maid led the way upstairs, and I followed. She came to a halt next to a room and unlocked the door.

“The old mistress instructed us to get this room ready for you.”

I entered the room and felt amazed by the decoration.

I took in the soft, muted colors on the walls, which gave off a soothing glow that appeared to encompass the room. The faint aroma of lavender soothed

feet.

“Nice room,” I told her.

“We have arranged some clothes in the closet for you. You can change.”

I gave the large closet a quick check and nodded my head.

I have to admit, Auntie Grace was quite remarkable. She had organized everything for me in a matter of hours!

I shut the door after the maid left the room. I walked to the closet and reached for a long, relaxed cotton dress for tonight.

After changing my dress, I headed downstairs to have dinner. with Uncle Lucas and Auntie Grace.

The maids informed me that they were in the dining room. I joined them at the table.

They were so overjoyed that I decided to stay with them for some, days. I had no idea that even after all these years, they would still adore me so deeply

After dinner, we three sat on the couches in the living room. We discussed the current position of the Crystal Blood Pack.

How much had it changed in the past few years?

As nightfall enveloped the pack house, we were busy talking.

The sound of approaching footsteps suddenly echoed through the hallways.

“Alpha has returned to the pack house,” a maid hurried to tell Uncle Lucas.

I looked over to the door.

Adrian had just stepped into the pack house when he seemed to sense something. A grimace came on his face as if any scent had gotten into his nose.

He directly looked at my side, and his brows slowly shot up, implying that he did not expect me here.

His sharp and penetrating gaze found mine in an instant, igniting a spark in my inner wolf.

I took a deep breath and looked away from him, showing him that I did not feel the mate bond anymore.
