Chapter 248

Janet couldn’t believe what she was seeing with her own eyes.

…Daran?

How did Daran get in here?! She thought that there was no way the either of them could pass that misted forest!

And why didn’t he bring more soldiers? He was here alone, how dangerous!

And Westin…It seemed that Westin knew Daran was coming. Did Westin invite him? No, how was that possible. Westin did everything he could to keep them apart…

A thousand of thoughts whizzed across her head, freezing her on the spot.

“Werewolf!”

An elder jumped up from his seat and bared his fangs, “What the hell is a werewolf doing here!”

“The Werewolf King!” somebody snarled, “How did he cross the forest? Why the hell weren’t we alerted? Guards? Guards!”

The once calm venue had erupted into a chaos of panic and horror.

“Calm down, my people!”

Westin raised one hand, gesturing the crowd to relax, “I invited King Daran.”

“Unbelievable!” Elder Medline stood up abruptly and snarled, “A werewolf on our sacred land-”

“We have always talked about co–existing with the werewolf. So let today be a start. And King Daran means no harm. He is simply here to offer his best wishes to me and

my Queen. Aren’t you, King Daran?”

Yet Daran didn’t say anything.

He kept his eyes on Janet, his fists tightly clenched by his sides.

Janet suddenly picked up her skirt and was about to run down the aisle.

“Relax. I invited him. So I am going to let you talk to him,” Westin said, unsmiling. “But remember that you are already my wife now. Go to him, get a closure, and return to my side, which I trust you will.”

Janet shook off his hand and rushed hastily down petal path.

Her heart was thumping like a drumroll against her ribs.

Daran was here!

The man that she truly loved…The father of her child!

Was he here to take her away?

Please! Let him take her away!

Yet before she could reach the end of that petal path, Daran turned on his heels and walked away in long strides.

Janet panicked.

No.

Why did he leave?

“-Daran!” she screamed.

She tripped on her long skirt and then stumbled up and kept running.
