Scarlett
Now that both of them were wasted and it’s nearing the closing of the shop only up until midnight. I don’t know to whom I should call to help me with them.
And how should I call Arnold and Draco then when I cannot leave these two, for fear that something might happen to them while I was away.
I took a heavy sigh. Well, I’ll choose another option then.
I’ll just carry them both in my arms and go back to our place.
I went to the bartender first and made sure to pay the bill.
.
“It seems that you really are the one who wasn’t drinking,” he commented while accepting my payment.
I chuckled and couldn’t help but look in Arnold and Draco’s direction.
“Well, If I drink and get wasted too, who would watch out for them? In a circle, there should be a sober one.”
The bartender gave me a thumbs up. “You got amazing self–control for not being able to give in to temptation.”
I just laughed and after paying the bill, I went back to our table, watching Nick who was mumbling on his own while Kathleen was slumped on the table and from time to time she would wake up and complain then fall asleep right away.
Just when I was about to carry them in my arms, I saw a familiar wolf who was walking towards our direction.
It was none other than Draco and Arnold.
I looked at them in surprise. “You’re here.”
Arnold nodded his head in greeting as his eyes fell on Nick who was drunk. “What happened? I thought it was unusual that he hasn’t been back yet and I went to Kane to ask where you were but he said you haven’t come back.”.
I felt guilty that I was out for too long when I said that I wouldn’t leave from my children’s eyesight.
However, knowing that Draco was there earlier who was protecting and watching the kids, I got carried away,
Draco nodded his head at me in greeting too as his gaze fell onto Kathleen and worry flashed in his gaze.
“Is she drunk because of me?” he asked.
I hurriedly nodded my head. “It’s not because of that. She just got carried away–you know her, she loves to drink.”
Draco pursed his lips as his hand gently touched Kathleen’s sleeping face. “But I feel like there’s still worry in her heart, I could feel it.”
Hearing this, I sighed helplessly. “She’s just thinking too much about what the elders had said to her–about being incompetent Luna who can’t give birth to an heir.
I watched as his eyes darkened as the atmosphere around him had dropped. “Damn those geezer. I won’t forgive them for speaking this way to my beloved”
Knowing that he was serious about it and knowing that he won’t hurt Kathleen, I was reassured.

By the way you should do your best. I added after remettilering our talk with Kathlé
Draco looked at me m confusion. What do you mean?
I chuckled, smiling from ear to ear as I pointed to Kathleen. “She wants to have a baby with you despite the one pe odds of being pregnant so you have to work hard.
I couldn’t help but let out a small laugh as his expression faltered. He gently scooped Kathleen from the table, carrying in a bridal style.
“We’ll head back to our room first. Luna.” Draco said while smiling softly whenever his gaze landed on Kathleen.
The corner of my lips raised as I waved my hand, watching as
they left together.
Seeing how close and sweet they were, I suddenly got the urge to see Lucien and to know whether he was safe
If there’s still no updates tomorrow, fuck everything, I’ll head to the Montero base.
I snapped from my thoughts as I watched Arnold who was trying to talk to Nick.
As if sensing my gaze, Nick raised his head and looked at me. There was helplessness in those eyes.
“Why did he drink too much alcohol?” he asked. “He never consumed this much alcohol before.”
I smiled, shrugging my shoulder. “I don’t know either and it would be better for you to ask him about that when he’s sober”
Arnold rubbed his brows and he couldn’t help but look at me with hesitant gazes as if he had something he would like to ask yet was debating whether he should ask me or not.
I let out a soft chuckle as I sat on the chair, looking at him. “You can ask me anything and I’ll try to answer it. Don’t hold back from your curiosity.”
Arnold let out a helpless chuckle. “Well… I won’t hold back.”
He sat on the chair right next to Nick whose neck and ears were red and his gaze was hazy.
“Can I ask… what happened to the girl?” His voice was soft and mumbled
If we were not close, I wouldn’t be able to hear this at all.
I tilted my head. “What girl?”
“The girl that Kathleen talks about… the one who was interested in Nick.”
Oh?
I finally remembered about it. Before we left earlier, Kathleen had said those to tease Nick… no, I feel like she said those words on purpose, saying those to Arnold.
Did she know something I couldn’t?
I couldn’t help but stare at Arnold, trying to gauge something from him by looking.
“Is there something wrong with what I asked?” he smiled.

snapper from my thoughts, shaking my head. “No, there’s none”
1 paused and added, letting out a beavy sight. “As for the girl… well, she clearly likes Nick and was willing to be his mate at all
costs.”
“Is this the reason why he had been drinking too much?” His brows furrowed. “And what did he say towards the girl?”
I shrugged my shoulder. “I don’t know either bu I guess it would be in no time that they would get to know each other and might develop something more. They seemed close to each other when they were talking.”
Just as I expected.
Despite that he was trying to control himself, to hide emotions from his face and would normally laugh at everything, after hearing my words, the smile on his lips had disappeared.
Anger and pain flashed in his eyes–he didn’t even bother to hide it. Or more like he wasn’t the type to hide his feelings, just like Kathleen who was a happy–go–lucky type, Arnold was also the same.
Upon seeing this, I know that even if Nick wouldn’t confess his feelings, he can be reassured.
I let out a soft chuckle. “I was just kidding.”
Before he could mutter a curse in his head, he looked at me with widened eyes. “Y…You’re kidding?*
I smiled, nodding my head. “There was no girl from the beginning who wanted to be Nick’s mate. It’s just the three of us here having conversations with each other and both of them drank too much.”
Hearing my words, he let out a heavy sigh as if relieved. “You scared me.”
The corner of my lips raised even more. “What scared you?”
He paused, looking at me in the eyes and as if realizing something, he looked away. “R…Right, what scared me indeed.”
I was about to open my eyes when I saw Nick grumbling, rubbing his eyes.
“Ar…nold?” His voices were hoarse, his brows were furrowed while leaning closer to Arnold, squinting his eyes as if he was trying to see if it really is Arnold and he even grabbed his face, putting both of his palms on both of Arnold’s cheeks.
“W…Why are you here?” he managed to utter in confusion.
Seeing this, Arnold felt helpless as he raised his hand and patted Nick’s hand that was on his face. “To get you. You’re drunk.“
Nick pursed his lips and didn’t break away from his gaze. “W…Why would you come here to get me?”
Arnold chuckled helplessly. “Isn’t it because we’re friends?”
When Nick heard this, his eyes dropped, so did his hands that were touching Arnold’s cheeks as he stopped talking.
Seeing this, Arnold was confused. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing…” Nick mumbled.
“You don’t like being friends with me?” Arnold asked with a hint of tease.
However, Nick’s eyes brightened as he looked at Arnold. “Can we not?”

Turt appeared on Arnold’s eyes. “Y…You don’t want to be my friend anymore?”
Nick nodded his head, seeming to be happy with this. “Yes!”
Seeing that Arnold was about to cry. Thelplessly sighed as I stood up and patted Apold’s shoulder. “Ask him what he wants with you if not as your friend.”
Arnold hesitates before asking, “W…What do you want if not as my friend?”
Before I could hear Nick’s obvious answer, I already excused myself and left them alone with each other.

“Is the Alpha having a hard time?” he suddenly asked with a calm tone.
I looked at him in surprise before smiling helplessly as I reached out and rubbed his head. “I don’t know either if he’s having a hard time or not. He never send any updates to us.”
“Are you planning to go to him if there are still no updates today?” he asked, looking at me in the eyes.
Damn. He’s really perceptive.
I helplessly nodded my head, not bothering to hide it from him. Anyway, given with how intelligent he is, he would still ended up knowing about it
“Can I go with you?” he suddenly asked, making me froze up, only for him to rephrase his words. “I want to go with you.”

I heard him added again. I know that old bastard really well. He would play dirty if it means he will win. I’m worried that he have done something he shouldn’t to the Alpha so it’s better for me to go with you especially that I have some experience dealing with that bastard.”
Hearing him blatantly called out his father as an old bastard, my lips twitched. Well, he was indeed a bastard for targeting his own son and even planned to kill him.
Given with the scars all over his body–anyone could tell that he didn’t have it easy in life and always had to guard up
୮ against anyone, fearing that another troubles would come to kill him again.
For someone like him who had a strong urge to live, it was a tremendous hellish way to torment someone and break their spirits.
However, this child managed to get through it.
And I don’t want to let him get through the same thing again. Just because he had more experience in getting hurt, does mean that he should continue to get hurt.
I shook my head and declined. “I’m sorry, Claude, but I cannot let you go with me.”
He tilted his head. “Is it because I will become baggage if I go with you? Don’t worry, I won’t let that happen and make sure
to not cause trouble.”
I rubbed his head, my heart felt like it was being squeezed. “It’s not because of that. I just don’t want you to get hurt and if
