There are no signs of bluff or any lies in Draku's facial expression when he let out those words. Getting back to the pack, huh? I haven't experienced any difficulties since I was removed from the pack yet. However, I know for a fact a lone wolf can barely survive in the human world. My voice will not be heard in times of crisis. I'll become useless, be the target of discrimination, and freely expose to risks. Not that I don't trust Draku's words, but I owed him my life. Karen also owed her life to him. If he did not show up, perhaps bad things already happened to us. "Are you kidding me?" Julian spells out his disapproval. "you already disbanded and disowned that bastard from the pack, Alpha Draku. Everyone in the pack knows that. What do you think your members would think if they will know this nonsense, huh?" Draku turned his face back to Julian. "What everyone knows is that Karen is not one of us, Julian. And they know the one-week allocation I allotted to Me

"You stay out of this, young man..." added her dad, whose glares are stabbing me with thousands of sharpened knives. "We don't want to see more blood right now." I don't know what was that supposed to mean, but I shut off my mouth before everything gets worse. So, I waited for them to break into the apartment. Their expressions combined not just give my wolf cold feet, but fear as well. Fear that I might leave with no option but to tell them the truth about why Karen stayed in my apartment last night. Terrified that my secret might get unfolded to the humans. I am not ready for the world to look at me as a monster yet. Needless to say, Alpha Dragu and the entire pack might despise me furthermore. When they were about to get in, Mr. and Mrs. Stanford glued their feet on the floor while staring at Charles stretching out his arms and yawning. "Mr. and Mrs. Stanford?" similar to them, Charles was also stunned and dumbfounded while staring into each other's eyes. "Young Master?" Mr

Later in the evening, I have been standing in front of the mirror for almost two hours having a hard time considering which side of my hair I have to flip in order to look better in Karen's eyes. Either way, my face looks the same no matter which side I pick. Apart from that, I haven't chosen what to wear so that I could look presentable and appealing. My wolf has to impress her parents on my first day to visit their house. Though my relationship with her was simply an agreement because of the wolf bond that was linked between us, we still have to nail it since her parents already agreed to it. After a few hours of considering things, I decided to wear something comfortable. It was already dark outside so, my instinct thinks getting properly dressed is no longer necessary. Besides, thinking about it only ruins my mood. So I hailed a cab and began my journey heading to my uncertainty. "Dad... Mom..., Melvin is already here!" yells Karen the second she greete

"No, it's fine, really," I slowed the speed of the car until we got parked in the corner of the road, then adjusted my shoulder next to her. "would that be enough?" Karen suddenly smirks at me as though something from what I did or said amused her. "how about a kiss?" she proposed. Her proposal, however, managed to drag down the bulk of the water that blocks my throat when my wolf did not expect that to come from Karen's thoughts. So, I stealth a glimpse at her face, trying to internalize the thought of our lips being rubbed with each other. I am not a good kisser as Jelian confessed to me but seeing Karen's lips arouse this part of me that I have no control over. While holding onto that thought, my heartbeats began to race. My body temperature began to rise like hell, especially when she licks her lips with her tongue while looking at the mirror in her hand. "So, what do you think?" she added after putting on lipstick. She's extremely stunning with red lips

So I scan the entire space to check if anything was left. However, even after a few minutes of searching, my wolf could no longer see anything that belongs to me. As though my sole existence in the building was removed for good. "Thank you so much, Miss Stanford. Melvin is such a good kid. He never brought someone into his apartment until you told me." "No. The pleasure is mine, Mrs. Ledisma. Don't worry, I will inform Melvin about your concern." Karen said back. Both their eyes broadened upon seeing me getting furious as soon as they step foot into the empty apartment. "What the hell is going on?" I ask both of them. Karen smiled at me before she drags her eyes to Mrs. Ledisma, the landlord of the building. "And where did my things go?" "I think that's my cue for me to head out," says Mrs. Ledisma in an awkward tone. "Anyway, I let you two talk about this, lovebirds." she giggles before she evacuated the room, leaving me and Karen. "What are you doing, Karen?" I ask her again,
