Chapter 88: Chapter 88
Athan Buffay leaned down and picked up the necklace on the floor, he took the jewelry box from me, put the necklace back, and then he handed me back.
“It's hard to find something that's been thrown away, because if you don’t look for it careful enough, it's lost forever. Don't tell me you broke into my room just for this, Katherine.” he said softly.
I stared blankly at the jewelry box in my hand. For a long time, he sighed and seemed to have given up confronting me: " You wouldn't have come to me if something urgent hadn't happened, So let me help you."
I imagined Athan Buffay's reaction when he heard this, maybe he would drive me away without caring, maybe he would send his men to investigate immediately, or maybe he would hand Ann over to me and let me deal with it myself.
But I didn't expect that he would panic, he was even more panicked than me.
"When did this happen?" Athan sat down with his forehead clenched, his voice grim.
"Just this morning, probably after I left home."
Athan was shaking all over, and I could feel his extreme anger. However, when he spoke, his tone was even lower and calmer than usual, but I knew it was a precursor to his outburst, "I’ll summon my best deltas and fight my way in to the Bluemoon Pack, and I'm going to kill him..."
"No! He has Mike!" I quickly refuted him. I knew Luther wouldn't really do anything to Mona, because she was the healer in the pack, and she was very valuable. However, he could easily do anything to Mike just to hurt me! I knew my father, he was the expert of war and negotiation. Since he dared to threaten me, he couldn't keep Mike in the Pack, he must be hiding him somewhere else.
"No one has ever dared to threaten me. I will kill his mate in front of him!" Athan gritted his teeth, his eyes were cold and dangerous.
“You have to calm down! What if he hurt Mike?”
“What am I supposed to do then? I can’t think straight! It is Mike that was taken, I…” Athan jumped up and shouted, his eyes were red.
I never realized his affection with Mike, his pain and worries were real, which gave me heartache. I tapped his shoulder and said softly: “he only wants his family back, let me hand him Ann and Thana, and he promised he won’t hurt Mike.”
Athan's breathing gradually calmed down, and his expression became gloomy: "Okay, he wants his family back, I’ll give it to him."
At night, I took Ann and Thana to the Pack boarder. Ann looked frail and struggled to walk. Her face was pale, and although the wound on her head had partially healed, it was obvious that Athan did not treat her well. Thana stared silently at the distant mountains, and she didn’t looking at me. The cold night wind was blowing on my face, and I couldn't help shivering.
After a few minutes, I felt a powerful aura, Luther was here.
There were three or four tall werewolves behind him, but I didn't see Mike or Mona.
“Where are they?” I asked.
Luther gave me a cold glance, then spoke: “don’t you dare ask me questions, hand me over your stepmother first.”
I hesitated for a moment and reached out to untie the knot on Ann's hand. She gave me a resentful look and staggered to Luther's side.
Suddenly, Thana spoke: “you really don’t know our father well, sister.”
I looked at her suspiciously, and she raised the corner of her mouth and chuckled: "Do you think he will care about me now that he has your gifted child in his hands?"
Chills ran down my spine. Yeah, he never cared about me, and he didn't care about Thana. All he cares about is his honor and disgrace and his inheritance!
“Where is my son!” I shouted at him, hoping that he had some sympathy.
Luther smiled proudly, "I said long ago that you can't protect your son. Don't worry, I will take good care of Mike, I will train him to be the best warrior, you shouldn't let him be wasted in Diamond city.
“What about Thana? Aren’t you worried that I will hurt her?” I grabbed Thana by the neck and tried to threaten him, but he laughed, “Do you think I didn't know she tipped you off? I saw her go to kindergarten to find you!”
“You…it was you that’s been following me…” I took a step back in shock, it wasn't me but Mike that he'd been watching! He has long wanted to take my son!
"My good daughter, it's time for you to leave. As soon as I summon my clan, hundreds of werewolves will besiege you. You can never fight them alone." Luther looked down at me with a triumphant smile.
Just then, a deep voice sounded, "Who told you that she came alone?"
Behind Luther, a huge black wolf stood on the wasteland in the darkness, exuding a dangerous aura. His eyes shone in golden color, they were dazzling in the darkness, and looked extremely dangerous.
