ck magic was a sensitive topic in this continent, so when Lc talked about ck magic, Hunter was


    a little bit taken aback.


    “He must only try to mess up with you, love,” Hunter said, he stretched out his hand and caressed her


    cheek. She looked fragile and beautiful, especially when she was in the middle of confusion like this.


    Hunter really wanted to seal her from the world. He only wanted to see her smile, being happy and that


    was all he wanted from her.


    And their baby…


    The thought of the little one inside her womb made his heart warmed.


    “But, if you really wanted to see him and to make sure of that, I wille with you.” Hunter wouldn’t


    leave her to talk alone with Ken this time. He would be there with


    her when she was having this conversation.


    “Okay.” Lc looked happy, she leaned over and kissed him. “You are the best!”


    Actually, this was the best option, because she didn’t think she could face Ken on her own after their


    last encounter and how she lost her cool at that time.


    Not to mention about how Ken’s condition must be worse than thest time. Knowing Hunter, he


    must have done something unimaginable to him.


    The next morning, after they had their breakfast, Hunter took her to the dungeon, where Lc saw Rye


    was there. The gamma looked at her questioningly.


    “Is it okay for him to know that I am here?” Lc whispered to Hunter and the alpha. told her that his


    gamma and his beta knew theplicated rtionship between her and Ken.


    “I should have just asked him to allow me to meet him yesterday,” Lc talked to herself. If the two of


    them already knew, there was no need for her to hide it anymore, right?


    Hunter justughed to see her pursing her lips and guided her inside the dungeon. Not like before,


    Lc realized that they went deeper into the dungeon. As if Hunter had moved Ken’s cell closer to


    the end of it. The spot where no one didn’t want to step in.


    The wall was damp and the only sound that could be heard inside this dimly lit tunnel


    was the sound of their footstep and the dripping water from the ceiling.


    “Cold?” Hunter asked, he draped his cloak around her body.


    “No. I am fine,” Lc murmured.


    However, Hunter didn’t buy it. “No. You are not.”

    And they finally arrived at Ken’s cell, Hunter reminded her again about what she was going to see.


    “Don’t get close to him, you will not like it what you are going to see.”


    Lc wanted to say not to worry about it, but she knew better to take his warning seriously, because he


    wouldn’t have reminded her a few times if this was something that she could handle.


    Even from here, Lc could smell the putrid scent from inside this cell. This located in the end of the


    tunnel and she was sure, not many people would love toe to this particr area.


    She couldn’t imagine what if someone to be held in this kind of ce, because she was barely able to


    stand her for this long.


    “Wh- who is that?!”


    There was a growl from inside the cell. The voice was very hoarse, dark and very hurtful to your ears.


    This made Lc shuddered. Ken’s voice was not like this thest time she met him.


    It almost like someone, who never drank anything for weeks. She could imagine how hurtful it was


    when you spoke.


    “Who is there?!”


    The sound like someone wed a wall. It hurt your teeth.


    Lc gathered her courage and replied to the question. “It’s me.”


    “You need to talk louder, love,” Hunter told her. “I identally destroyed his hearing, so


    him.” he couldn’t hear it if you didn’t shout to


    identally?


    Who would believe that? There was nothing ident if it came to this man. He was not someone, who


    would do something unintentional.


    Lc wondered how Ken’s condition right now, because he was curling at the corner of the cell and


    the dark was too thick, the only thing she could see was his silhouette.


    Lc nced at Hunter and her mate only gave her an innocent look, seemingly didn’t- know why he


    was being stared at like that.


    This time, Lc spoke louder and from inside the cell, there was this thunderous guffaw that echoed


    throughout the walls.


    w you


    “I know you wille to me again! I wille to see me again! Why? Did you miss your father?!”


    The question made Lc’s stomach churned, but she needed to get the answer that she deserved.


    “Tell me about


    my


    mother!”


    That was not a question, but a demand. She didn’t want to listen another bullshit that came from his


    mouth.


    Aiden was in a great dilemma when he had to disclose every hiding spot in the pack house to this


    woman. Her name was Danika. She was a warrior of this lycan pack.


    And from what Aiden learned as he already stayed in this pack for more than two. months, he knew a


    little bit of detail of the background story of this pack.


    Apparently, this woman’s father was the eldest brother of Hunter’s father, which made her Hunter’s


    cousin. Actually, it should be Danika’s father, who became the alpha, but. because a big dispute that


    shed a lot of blood, Danika’s father was being chased out from the pack, along with a few people.


    There were not many people knew about this story, because it happened long before Danika and


    Hunter were born, the people, who knew about it also was being shut down. by the alpha at that time.


    However, Ken knew about the story and he had been in contact with them ever since Hunter openly


    rejected his daughter and chose Lc to be his luna.


    He didn’t know that Lc was his daughter at that time, if he knew, he would have changed the n.


    ‘Why do you need me?’


    That was the first question that came to Aiden’s mind because there was no reason for Danika to


    involve him, especially when she had to make a big sacrifice to save him.


    ‘Because you killed the previous alpha. That was a simple answer. ‘We, lycan, knew how to repay


    someone else’s favor.


    In their eyes, what Aiden had done was a great favor for them. He essentially had avenged their


    alpha’s vengeance.


    Hearing that, Aiden could only bite his tongue. Only if they knew that Hunter was the


    who had killed his own father. Yes. That alpha lycan was that crazy.


    one,


    Therefore, this was how they would repay him for that favor.


    Aiden wouldn’t say anything about it. Let them think that they owed him, because right now, he could


    only ry on that.


    “The ceremony will be held tonight,” Danika said. “Be ready.”


    This woman still looked gloomy like usual, but the more Aiden looked at her, the more he found her


    very endearing. She held power and knew what she needed to do, but more importantly, she agreed to


    devote herself to him, which meant, the power in her hand would be his.


    “Okay.” Aiden nodded. He was ready for tonight.


    And that same night, Ruby was woken up because of the excruciating pain that she felt. She was


    breathing raggedly and her body writhed in agony. The mark on her neck. burned her skin.


    She was having a hard time to breath and without her knowing it, she was crying out loud, asking for


    help, though she didn’t know what the cause of her pain. She only wanted this to end.


    Ruby pleaded to no one in particr for this pain to stop, but it was to no use because she was sure


    there was no one nearby.


    After the dispute between her and luna Jasmine, everyone avoided her like a germ, because they didn’t


    want to upset the luna and be on her bad side. The luna had been very hostile toward Ruby, using


    her to seduce her mate and wouldsh out to anyone, who even mentioned her name.


    Therefore, no one woulde to her rescue, but then Ruby felt someone touched her. His voiceced
