Chapter 37
Chapter 37
Blake’s POV
Such a realization annoyed me. Since when did I let my emotion be at her mercy?
“Daddy, hug me…” Hedwig’s voice disrupted my thoughts.
I picked up Hedwig and kissed her face again and again. Then, I carried her upstairs.
When we reached the second floor, I placed Hedwig on the bed, got the history book about werewolves prepared by Dowen, and told her the history of the Royal.
The history was dull. Hedwig listened seriously, but she gradually closed her eyes, and she looked sleepy.
Catherine pushed the door open and entered. Hedwig saw her in and became excited.
“Daddy, I don’t want to listen to the history anymore. I want to play.” Hedwig protested with a flat
mouth.
I comforted her at once, “Sure, my baby girl. How about riding a horse tomorrow? I have several
horses in the backyard.”
“Is there a white one? I like white horses!” As soon as Hedwig heard me say that she could ride a horse, she became interested.
I was stunned. “Okay, I will buy you a white pony tomorrow. You can name it and raise it in the future, okay?”
“Really? Amazing!” When Hedwig heard it, she was overjoyed beyond words.
Catherine coughed immediately. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
When Hedwig turned around and saw her mom, she immediately behaved herself and did not even dare to speak loudly.
My eyes narrowed slightly. Hedwig seemed to be quite afraid of Catherine. Had she always been strict with Hedwig and Noah like this?
“Hedwig is still young, so you should stop spoiling her. I’m afraid that in less than a month, you can’t stop her from doing whatever she wants to do!” Catherine said slowly,
However, my philosophy was completely different from hers. I said flatly, “Hedwig is my daughter, and it’s reasonable for me to pamper her. I am the Lycan King, so Hedwig is the princess. Couldn’t she live a happier life than ordinary werewolves?”
“I just can’t reason with you. Hedwig, lie down to sleep, stop playing!” Catherine went to the other side of the bed and lay down.
Hedwig immediately lay down beside Catherine obediently and patted the other side of the bed with her small hands. “Daddy, lie down. We are going to sleep!”
I was in a much better mood when I saw the pure eyes of Hedwig. I then laid down as well.
Hedwig hugged Catherine’s’arm with her two hands, but her two legs were put on my body. She
looked so happy and proud.
I was lying flat, but because Hedwig looked so cute and interesting, I lay on my side.
The little girl was lying in the middle and couldn’t block my line of sight. So, my gaze landed on Catherine.
I looked at Catherine, who was tense and nervous, and could not help but feel that she was
ridiculous.
Did she think I would do something to her?
Hedwig played for a whole day and fell asleep very soon. At that moment, the room was so quiet that Catherine and I could hear each other’s sound of breathing.
I couldn’t help saying in a low voice, “Is your cup size A?”
“You pervert! Hedwig is asleep. Get out!” Catherine glared at me coldly. As she spoke, she kicked me, intending to get me out of bed.
Unfortunately, as the Lycan King, I had received strict combat training since I was young. When Catherine kicked, I subconsciously raised my legs and caught hers in between, rendering her
unable to move.
“You… Let go of me!” Catherine flared up.
“Watch it. Don’t you know whose bed you’re lying in?”I warned in a low voice.
Catherine’s face turned pale and she said angrily, “Fine, I’ll behave myself. Let go of me and go back to your room. Leave me alone!”
“This is my room!”
Catherine had nothing to say. She gritted her teeth and said, “I’ll go to Noah’s room.”
“Hedwig will look for you if she is awake!” Hearing that she was leaving, I loosened my legs and reminded her.
“Leave it to when she wakes up!” Catherine said.
Just as Catherine was about to move Hedwig’s hands that were wrapped around her arms, Hedwig was shocked awake. She opened her eyes wide and subconsciously hugged Catherine’s arm tighter. Hedwig muttered, “Mommy…”
“Alright, I won’t tease you anymore. Good night!” I found that Catherine’s face was full of sleepiness, but she kept holding on. I felt sorry for her.
I didn’t tease Catherine anymore. My gaze turned gentle as I stared at Hedwig’s face, and my heart was filled with indescribable satisfaction.
Because of Hedwig, I had a sense of responsibility as a father as well as the complicated and indescribable feeling of having a daughter.
Such a feeling actually made me so uncomfortable.
When I calmed down, I looked up and saw that Catherine was already asleep.
In the middle of the night, everything was silent.
For some reason, this was the first time I slept so peacefully as if I had become whole.
Suddenly, I felt something wrong.
Leroy began to get restless, and I woke up from my sleep because of its call.
“Mate, mate…” Leroy called softly.
These years, Leroy would call for our mate, but I never felt her arrival.
I comforted Leroy in my heart, “Leroy, our mate has not arrived.”
Unexpectedly, this time, Leroy did not let out a dejected voice. It said to me with excitement, “Blake, I feel the guidance of the Moon Goddess. Our mate will show up soon!”
I couldn’t help looking at Catherine, who was sleeping soundly. My mood was complicated. I used to look forward to my mate, but now, I didn’t know if she existed or what her appearance would mean
to me.
“Blake, I want to go out for a night run,” Leroy said.
I also felt energetic, so I quietly left the room and went outside the villa.
After shifting, I shook my fur and started running under the moonlight.
Bathed in the moonlight and the cold wind, I felt my energy being released. I could tell that my strength had improved again.
This was the first time in so many years that I had such a clear feeling of improvement in my strength. Would my mate be about to show up?
I raised my head, looked at the moon, and couldn’t help howling.
