re patted Marcus on the back and comforted him.

Whenever you miss them in the future, I’ll come back with you.”

Marcus nodded. His eyes were still a little red, but he was smiling again.

“Claire, wherever you go in the future, I’ll go too. Didn’t you say before that after the cold season ends, you’re going to the eagle clan?”

“That’s right! My cubs with Zane are still there. I wonder how much they’ve grown during this cold season. I miss them so much!”

When Claire thought about how adorable her first litter had been when they were born, the heavy feeling in her heart immediately became lighter.

Zane smiled and nodded.

“Those little troublemakers must be giving the eagle clan endless headaches. With how mischievous they are, we’d better prepare more gifts for the eagle clan to thank them for taking care of the cubs.”

He missed the cubs no less than Claire did. Although he occasionally returned to see them, he usually only watched them from afar before hurrying back to Claire’s side.

Rufus raised an eyebrow.

“Why are you being so polite with me? Don’t worry. My mother loves cubs more than anyone. She’ll take good care of them on’t need to prepare any gifts. Just ler Claire stay with me a few extra days.”

Chapter 200 The Cruel Truth

He wondered if they were as mischievous as Zane’s cubs.

Many of his friends in the eagle clan already had several litters. Some of their cubs were even old enough fly alongside them.

Just imagining a flock of little birds following him through the sky filled him with pride, and in the future he wanted to have even more cubs with Claire!

His burning gaze stayed fixed on Claire. Something inside him stirred, but he forcefully suppressed it.

Feeling his wolf-like gaze, Claire stepped forward and hugged him guiltily.

“Rufus, I’m really sorry for making you all worry.”

She briefly explained how Jeffrey had imprisoned and forced her after she left them. By the end, she didn’t even dare look at him.

She just lowered her head and said in a muffled voice, “Rufus, there is one thing I must tell you. Please don’t get agitated!”

Rufus’s excited gaze cooled down slightly, a sense of unease rising in his heart, but he still managed a forced smile and nodded at Claire.

“Go on.”

“The second litter was born in the underground cave. At the time, Jeffrey was right beside me. To be exact. he was the one who delivered them. The situation was urgent…

Claire slowly told the story. Her voice was heavy with sorrow. When she reached the part where Jeffrey personally admitted that he had eaten all the cubs, even the usually calm Zane furrowed his brows

Marcus stared with his mouth open in disbelief. Claire had never told him about these painful memories.

She always shared good news and hid the bad. Only when he repeatedly asked would she reveal a bit.

Claire’s previous litter had actually been eaten by a rogue beastfolk..

What a vicious rogue beastfolk!

No wonder his father had always strictly forbidden rogue beastfolk from entering Grimstone. They were truly cruel!

Thinking back to when Claire had collapsed outside Grimstone, she must have just lost that litter of cubs How desperate and heartbroken she must have been!

Marcus looked at Claire with pity. His heart ached for her.

Claire’s voice trembled as she continued speaking, but Rufus could no longer hear any thing she was saying.

One sentence echoed repeatedly in his mind.

His cubs had been eaten by Jeffrey, the rogue beastfolk!

“Impossible! That’s absolutely impossible! Claire, you’re lying to me, right?”

Rufus cried out in pain. He couldn’t accept that the cubs he had been longing for all this time had died shortly after birth.

And they had died such a miserable death!

Claire was also unable to stop crying as she recalled the past.

Staggering backward two steps, Rufus stared at her. He desperately hoped that the next words out of her. mouth would be three simple words-I was lying.

But it didn’t happen!

Tears rolled down Claire’s cheeks like broken strings of pearls. She nearly lost her balance and was pulled into Zane’s arms.

Only under Zane’s comfort did her nearly shattered emotions gradually settle.

Claire only looked at Rufus.
