Chapter 34
Catherine’s POV
“Wait!” My mind had been a little blank, but when I heard his words, I was suddenly filled with hope. “A job in the Chavez Group? Does that mean I will be a member of the royal pack?”
“Well? Is that not good enough for you?” Blake mocked.
I became angry at the mention of this, and I glared at him. “If it weren’t for you, I would have joined the pack already.”
I was so close to joining the Black Thorn Pack.
“Isn’t it better now?” Blake’s eyes flickered.
“Even if you don’t make such an offer, I would still go to other packs to give it a shot.” Since I had decided to stay, I needed to join a pack and find a job, so Noah and Hedwig could have a better life.
“We’ll go out for dinner tonight. You’re OK with it, right?” Blake suddenly asked in a low voice.
“Sure!” Noah and Hedwig answered in unison.
Seeing how excited Noah and Hedwig were, I knew that they were looking forward to it. How could I turn them down?
Maybe the life I provided for Noah and Hedwig was too dull. So, any proposal made by Blake could make Noah and Hedwig feel novel and excited.
It seemed that Blake also came to realize it. Whatever decision he made, as long as Noah and Hedwig were OK with it, I wouldn’t have a second opinion.

“Daddy, Mommy, you two go ahead. I’m going to watch TV with Hedwig now.” Noah held Hedwig’s hand.
Dowen was next to Noah, and Dowen followed them immediately. “Your Highness Prince, shall I join you?”
“Sure!” Noah smiled politely and happily.
The parlor became quiet.
I suddenly felt quite out of place without the noise of the little ones.
I raised my head, and I accidentally met Blake’s deep, probing eyes. My heart skipped a beat.
“Who did you see just now? The man from last night?” As soon as Noah and Hedwig left, Blake’s expression changed, and his voice was full of sarcasm.
My heart sank, and my voice became indifferent. “It’s none of your business.”.
“I heard that you have quite a few wooers. Which pack are they from? Or are they humans? How can you expose Noah and Hedwig to adults’ emotional problems this early?” He pulled a long face.
I was dumbfounded, and I looked at the unhappy expression on his face. “Who told you that?”
“The children, of course.”
“And you believe them? How naive,” I said sarcastically.
His face was even more livid.
“Catherine, just because you gave birth to two kids of mine doesn’t mean you can challenge me. You will be a member of the royal pack as well. I am warning you. If you say such things to me again, I won’t let you off the hook easily,” Blake said, wanting to intimidate me.
I curled my lips disapprovingly. “I’m tired. Do you have a room upstairs? I want to lie down for a while.”
“Are you so assured to sleep at my place? Aren’t you afraid that I will sleep with you again?” Blake suddenly became vicious.
I stared at him in disgust. “Who said not to expose the kids to such adult things too early? What would they think of you if they knew?”
Blake froze slightly.
I knew he was just bluffing. He didn’t mean to do anything to me. That was why I was so calm.
“You can sleep at ease. You can hardly arouse me with that face of yours,” he sneered.
“Good. To be honest, I am not interested in you at all,” I retorted.
I leisurely walked to the second floor, leaving the stunned man behind in the parlor.
I pushed open the door of a guest room and lay on the bed tiredly. Ever since Blake knew about the kids, I had always been tense. I might have a breakdown at any time.
I had a nightmare last night and didn’t sleep well at all.
But now, everything was settled, and I could finally sleep soundly.
Since there was nowhere I could escape, I might as well accept the fact calmly.
There was nothing wrong with children needing a father. I shouldn’t be selfish and stand in their way.
I took a nap. It was dark when I woke up.
I felt someone beside me. I looked down and saw Hedwig lying in my arms. She was sleeping
soundly.
I looked at Hedwig’s two hands holding my arms and her face pressing against mine. My heart was
soft.
A father was vital for werewolves. In my years as a rogue, I had seen a lot of female werewolves who had lost their mates with children. Their children tended to be timid and weak in combat. Hedwig
was just as insecure
I looked at the time and gave Hedwig a gentle push. “Hedwig, didn’t you promise to go out for a meal with your daddy? If you keep sleeping, you won’t be able to eat.”
Hedwig quickly sat up from the bed. Her delicate body was still shaking, but she was no longer sleepy. “That’s right! Daddy offers to treat us to a meal! Mommy, let’s go downstairs quickly!”
I nodded.
I helped Hedwig wash her face. Then I held her hand and went downstairs. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
“Daddy, where’s Noah?” At the sight of Blake, Hedwig immediately ran to him and let him hug her.
“I asked Dowen to play with him,” Blake answered Hedwig patiently.
“Then can we go out to eat now? I’m starving.” Hedwig immediately reached out and touched her small belly, looking very serious.
Seeing how cute Hedwig was, Blake couldn’t help but kiss her delicate face and said gently, “Let’s go. We’ll go find Noah and then go out to eat.”
I stood at the side and looked at them, feeling a little unnatural. Seeing how close Hedwig and Blake were, I had mixed feelings. But I couldn’t deny that I was also happy. Now that Blake was here, would Hedwig become braver?
“Let’s go!” While I was in a daze, someone fixed his eyes on me earnestly.
“OK!” I nodded. In the past, when my kids and I went out, Hedwig always asked me to hug her. Now that someone else took my place, I felt more at ease.
After a while, Dowen brought Noah out with him. Noah was holding an electric robot in his hand happily
I stood aside, sharing my kids’ happiness. Accidentally, my eyes caught Blake’s deep, smiling eyes,
For a moment, we both froze, and I quickly looked away.
