Family’s Regret After I Left
"Kieran, you should go back tomorrow. I understand your feelings, but I don't have time for romance right now. I don't want you wasting your youth here for me. You're the Alpha King's heir. You have more important things waiting for you."
Kieran opened his mouth, about to say something, when I continued:
"Pass your Alpha trials next year. I'll wait for you."
Of course I could see Kieran's feelings for me, and I didn't dislike him. But I didn't want him to ruin his career because of temporary lovesickness.
With my promise, Kieran finally agreed to return to base tomorrow to continue his Alpha training.
The next day, I saw him off at the airport.
"Aria, can I have a hug?"
