The Lunar Curse: A Second Chance With Alpha Draven novel Chapter 119

Chapter 119: A Letter from Grandma

Meredith.

Silence ensued, holding up for up till ten seconds.

I didn’t know if Draven believed me or not, but I really had no choice but to lie, as I felt no pull towards revealing anything about my wolf’s sudden appearance right now.

And besides, I’m still shocked to learn about his tale of Valmora and the wolf Queen, Serena.

It’s actually taking a lot of willpower for me not to go crazy right now because I’m already thinking and wondering if my wolf, Valmora, has anything to do with this other one.

Could there be a connection?

I couldn’t tell. But it looked like there might be one given that there wasn’t any other story about this Valmora from Draven.

Draven didn’t look like he was going to say anything, so I said to him, "I’m going to my room now."

Then I cleared my throat and added, "I-I... erhm.. I will call you if I need you."

"Stay in my room," he said. I frowned but he continued with a further explanation, "It will be troublesome if you go into heat again."

My face heated up.

"It will quickly spread and affect everyone at the ground floor," he finished without doing as much as batting an eye.

I looked away from him and nodded. I understood him completely, and it was no wonder he took me up to his bedroom last night.

"Can I take these with me to go study them?" I gestured to the items: the aged book and scroll, in my hands.

"No book leaves my office." he said with a straight face and took a step back as his hands fell beside him. "You can read them here."

"Please," I begged. And because I desperately wanted to leave with them, I tried acting cute by batting my lashes and failed.

It didn’t work on him.

He snatched the scroll from my hand and then glanced at the thick book before moving his gaze to my face. "Return it in good condition."

Just one simple approval made me realize just how important his books were to him. And it was already a privilege for him to allow me take one out of the room.

His statement implied that I wouldn’t want to find out what would happen to me if I destroyed his book.

"Thank you," I said to him, but my gaze lingered on the scroll.

I bit my lower lips and watched him return it to its rightful position.

"You can come in here and read any book of your choice provided you’ve got my permission. But then, you must always keep them in the same shelf you picked them up from," he said before turning to me.

I slowly nodded. At least I’ve gotten permission to use his Office if I wanted as long I informed him first.

Before, I used to think this spot was unreachable and just for his serious business but now that I have access to it, it doesn’t feel the same way.

I left Draven’s study with a mix of several emotions; happiness, relief, anticipation, curiosity and satisfaction.

Coincidentally, I met Azul in the hallway.

I was walking ahead with the thick ancient history book hugged tightly in my arms, my thoughts, swimming with different ideas about my wolf when I heard Azul’s familiar voice call me from behind.

I narrowed my eyes. ’A letter from my grandmother?’
