Chapter 196

Janet’s body became stiff.

Although he was still smiling, that smile was so cold that it sent a chill down her spine.

“…I ran into him after we said goodnight, Westin. I didn’t find him on purpose—”

She tried to explain.

But he interrupted her with a short laugh:

“Not on purpose. But temptation is still a bitch, isn’t it?”

He cupped her face with one hand, his thumb caressing her skin, “I am doing you a favor, Janet. Come to the Lycan’s land with me and kill that temptation forever. He won’t have any chance to hurt you. Ever again.”

Janet froze.

“What is the matter? You look pale,” Morgana asked, walking up to her.

Janet took in a deep breath, “Westin and I just had the weirdest conversation…”
