I shook my head. “No, it’ll be too much.” “I will be happy if you want to accompany me for dinner another time.” At first, I said nothing. But I knew I must refuse. I didn’t want to give a false hope to him. “No, thank you. But it’s a great dinner. I really thank you for tonight.” Then I added, “My boyfriend called me when I was in the ladies’ room. He said he would come here. So, I’ll go home with him.” Constantine’s expression was unreadable. He took his glass and sipped his drink. “I see. Are you sure that I can leave you here?” “Yes. my boyfriend didn’t say anything when I said I had gone with a new acquaintance. But then, he said he would send me home.” “Another time, maybe. Please send my regards to your mother then.” I nodded, too relieved because he didn’t make a fuss about it. “Sure!” Constantine raised his hand and signaled the server to bring the bill. After paying, he stared at me. “Are you sure you don’t want to go home with me?” “Yes, I’ll go home with my boyfrie

Then Helena frowned. She tilted her head to the said. “How come you know his name? I haven’t told you yet.” “When you were asleep, I called Freya so she wouldn’t worry about you,” I said. “Freya then told me his name.” I sensed Helena’s hesitation to tell me about Constantine. Hmm … I wondered why. “I see. I met Constantine because he saved me when Kenneth chased me.” “Kenneth again?” I shook his head. The jerk might need a better lesson. His brain didn’t work well since he kept bothering my mate. “Maybe the guy won’t understand before I break more of his bones.” “No, you don’t need to do it. Constantine has done it.” “Ah, for that, I’m glad he did.” It’s funny, but I appreciated Constantine’s doing that since I wanted to do it myself. Kenneth deserved a whack on his thick head. “But I want you to promise me not to meet with Constantine anymore.” Helena shrugged. “Okay, no problem since it’s just a coincidence. He also said it was only one time I would have dinner with him.” Yet

~ Ethan ~ Then we spent an hour until Helena was asleep again. I smiled and kissed her lips. She sighed a little but still slept. I touched her hair and kissed her forehead. “I will end the curse soon, and when the time comes, you may beg for mercy since I won’t stop having you.” Then I took a blanket on the bed and covered Helena’s body. Next, I walked to the cupboard and wore a shirt and trousers. I called Ernie through the mind link. She came fast. After knocking on the door, Ernie approached me. She immediately saw Helena on the bed and smiled. “Yes, Alpha?” “Please prepare breakfast for three.” “For three?” Ernie frowned. “Is our Luna expecting?” I didn’t know whether or not I should laugh. But finally, I shook my head. “I wish she were expecting, but I can’t do that.” I whispered, “Not before the curse is broken.” Then I said, “I want to ask Red to join us for breakfast.” “Oh, I see. Right away, my Alpha King. I will work now.” Then I opened the mind link and called R

~ Red ~ I was standing when I saw my Alpha, but my body was tense to see Helena. “She spent the night with me,” he said. “But—” “We’ll talk after breakfast. But, for now, let’s eat first.” My Alpha pointed at the table. “Alpha—” “Didn’t you hear what I said?!” My body was trembling. It was the first time our Alpha used a cold tone like that to me. I immediately bent my head and mumbled, “My apologies, Alpha.” “Good! It’s time you know your place.” I glared at Helena. It was because of her! Our Alpha had never been so cold to me. NEVER! Both of them spent the night together, and he changed drastically. She should have told Alpha something. Ernie came with scrambled eggs, sausages, toasted bread, bacon, ham, and beans. The smell was delicious, and Helena’s stomach sounded immediately. Our Alpha laughed and rubbed her tummy. “Be patient. Soon, your stomach will be filled.” Helena blushed. “Yes, for sure.” “But it doesn’t surprise me after last night.” Our Alpha winked his ey

Red approached me, then he knelt and kissed my feet. “Luna, I hope you can have a happily ever after with our Alpha. We need you as our Luna too.” It was the first time Red gave his blessings to Ethan and me. Also, now, he called me ‘Luna’, not with my name anymore. It seemed Red had finally accepted me. “Thank you, Red.” “No, thank you, Luna.” Then he raised his head and grinned. “You may be better going to meet our Alpha. He may think I give you more trouble since I take your time here.” I giggled and shook my head. “He should know better than that.” Then I smiled. “I’d see him now. See you later, Red.” “Yes, Luna. Have fun.” Red grinned widely. I just smiled and walked to Ethan’s room. The door opened, so I stepped inside. Ethan immediately walked to the door, later closed and then locked it. “What took you so long?” “Well, Red and I just chatted. I think he has accepted me as your mate and your Luna.” “Our Luna,” Ethan corrected me. He grinned and wrapped his arms around
