A Werewolf's Vow: Mated by the Letters のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

"Hi," I smiled back. Jasper then hand me over the bouquet and a plastic bag full of chocolates. "Is this your way of making it up to me?" "Before you guys talk privately, join me in the kitchen first. I kept hearing Jasper's stomach rumbling the second he stood. It's best to talk when your stomach is full, right?" Mum snatched the bouquet and plastic bag from me and led the way to the dining area. Before Jasper could lift his foot forward to follow mum to the kitchen, I immediately wrapped my arms around him. "Thank you, Jas. I thought you already hates me because of what happened." "I will never hate you, Nathalie. Your secret is not new to me. I was looking at you all over our house, thinking you stayed." Jasper said back. His wrap was tighter than mine. "How did you know I went home?" I curiously asked. "I guess your mum was right, Nathalie. I need to fill something in my stomach before we could discuss more." Jasper let go of his wrap and rubbed my head. Th

"What was that for?" Joshua gently rubbed his cheek with the tip of his brows bent downward. So, it happened that I laughed at his cute reactions. "I'm just making sure I wasn't dreaming. That's what the slap all about was. I'm so sorry. Is it painful?" I reached out to his left cheek and gently rubbed it. Joshua simply let me rub his cheek for a few seconds before he said, "not anymore now." then he changed his surprising facial expression to a smile. "And you're not dreaming. Have you received the letters I gave to your mum yesterday?" Because of the question, I dropped my gaze to the floor. As far as I could remember, mum told me earlier that she threw the letter into the trash bin, thinking those letters were nonsense. "Umm... Yeah. I got all of them. But I haven't got the chance to read them. You won't get at me because of that, will you?" And that was a fucking lie. I don't want him to feel bad about my mum or at me. So, I have to lie. Could not believe I hav

Unfortunately, I can't force my heart on whom to love in particular. It will be unfair if I accept Jasper's love out of pity. He might be happy with that. But it will be a nightmare for me every single day. In the long run, if given the chance, it will leave me brokenhearted. The next morning, Jasper was no longer in the guest room. Mum said that Jasper has to get back to his hotel room since the investors' meeting was crucial to the wolf world and that he can come back as soon it was all done. Good thing mum told me that. I was about to feel guilty for what happened last night, rejecting his precious gift. After the meal, mum and I had a few preparations for the investors' meeting. About how I should say and react when they speak up. While she was busy discussing the preparation in front of me, I could barely stare at her directly into her eyes when I will only remember how she lied to me about Joshua's letters. So, I pace my gaze sideways. But my ears were all focu

"Are you kidding me? Don't you realize you risking yourself for helping that monster? The cops are still looking for him, remember?" Jasper insisted. Even pointed the tip of his finger in Joshua's direction. I can't blame Jasper to think of Joshua that way. He once lied to me about Joshua, so it will be reasonable that he doesn't like the person. "The laws will be accusing you of helping that monster, Nathalie. And you even brought him to my unit without consulting. That makes the two of us be the accessory of the crime." he added. "Jas... Haven't you forgotten I'm a monster too? Whatever reasons Joshua had for doing it, we have no right to judge him. You have no right to judge him." Undeniably, I felt disappointed by Jasper's inconsideration. "Maybe coming here was a wrong idea." I disappeared from my spot and followed Joshua into the kitchen. He was eating the food and drinks on the table. Perhaps those were Jasper's leftovers. "Don't worry, Nathalie. I have no

After a few minutes of searching, the police officers and the cops bubbled out of the unit. The manager kept apologizing to Jasper for the interruption they have done. However, the cops left us with a bothering warning that if they found us guilty of helping Joshua escape, the law will come after us. And that there has no one above the law even if they knew Jasper was the governor's and the mayor's son. They also knew that my family comes from well-known and most respected ones. That if I plead guilty, it will not only ruin my name but my dad's and mum's reputations. "Are you all right, Nathalie?" Jasper muttered as we stood in front of the door, thinking about what to do next. As I enhanced my werewolf senses, I could barely trace Joshua's scent throughout the building anymore. But most of the cops continued roaming around. And it only tells me two things. It's either Joshua safely got past the police officers or he was still hiding. But how am I supposed to k
