The Lycan King’s Rejected Soulmate by Fire Sprout

Chapter 57

Avery

The next few days passed by in a blur and before I knew it, it was the day of the banquet.

Mrs Barrington put in a lot of effort into the preparation of this party. I could see her sincerity.

Mrs Barrington cracked down in the spies in the mansion. She did not give them. any time to react.

Her actions were as swift as blades.

Her actions were to my liking.

She did not disappoint me.

Today, Mrs Barrington insisted on being the one that would dress me up.

She had made a white dress that glittered when light touched it. It was beautiful.

I had already drssed up, only my hairdo remained.

I was sitting before a mirror. I watched as Mrs Barrington performed her magic. ‘Mother, I want to bring the triplets to the banquet. I won’t feel safe with leaving them here with a nanny.” I informed Mrs Barrington.

Even though Mrs Barrington had dealt with the spies, I did not feel okay with leaving my pups here.

Their best protection laid by my side. I would have it no other way.

Leaving them here would not make my mind be at peace.

A banquet can be rescheduled or held anytime but my pups were irreplaceable. I can not joke with them.

Tigers are prowling everywhere I can see.

I have to keep my kids in my sight.

What an envious person can do can not he predicted.

This past week, Nina did not come to the Barrington’s mansion.

That did not make me feel at ease.

I only felt like my nerves are on edge.

No action meant she was preparing for a bigger showdown.

I would have preferred it if she did something this past week.

According to my information, she and her family is too quiet.

Since Mrs Barringtón promised me a banquet, I was sure all the upper circles Mrs. Barrington is involved in knew of the news.

It was strange that Nina and her family did not make a move.

It was better to hold the safety of my pups in my hand. I would have it no other

way.

Mrs Barrington smiled, “You are vigilant. That is a good thing. Don’t worry, you can take the kids to the banquet. Anyone that speaks ill of you would be on my blacklist.”

I returned her smile.

It is not that I did not trust Mrs Barrington.

She would not waste time to plan an elaborate scheme to trap me.

I did not have what she wants.

For now, I do not even know all her desires and wants.

Still, it is highly unlikely that she wants to spend time and efforts to harm me.

My gut feeling would have given me a sign.

Besides, she has the blood of both werewolves and humans running through her veins. I was stronger than her.

I was confident I will be able to hold my own against any opposition that tries to
