Chapter 7

Catherine’s POV

It was ten o’clock in the evening.

I helped Hedwig and Noah take a bath and read bedtime stories to Hedwig.

“Daddy hasn’t come back yet. It’s so late!” Hedwig had taken a nap, and though she was feeling sleepy now, she did not want to fall asleep when she realized that Blake was not back yet.

1 stroked her head and comforted her gently, “Hedwig, daddy might be caught up with something important, so he will be back late. Go to sleep. You can play with your daddy in your dream, OK?

“Mommy, is daddy in danger?” Hedwig was so worried. She blinked.

I chuckled. “Your daddy is the Lycan King. Nothing will happen to him. Don’t worry. Just go to sleep.”

“I can’t. I miss him!” Hedwig pouted and said pitifully.

– “Then Mommy will sing you to sleep, OK?” I thought of a way.

“Well, Mommy, you can give it a try. I don’t know if I can sleep.” Hedwig gave in and decided to hear me sing.

I began to hum a few lullabies.

As I hummed, Hedwig yawned. She looked like she would fall asleep at any moment.

I tried my best to lower my voice. I gently stroked Hedwig’s head while humming.

Seeing that Hedwig was finally asleep, I let out a sigh of relief and tucked her in before pushing the door open and leaving
