Chapter 16
Did Janet get frostbite before?
Those scars seemed relatively old.
So maybe she got it when she was kidnapped by those rogues?
Yes, that must be it…
Daran’s line of thinking was interrupted by Harper’s wailing the next second,
“I didn’t take those lessons because of my body condition…” Harper shook Daran’s arm and sobbed, “Alpha please tell them.”
Daran took a deep breath and looked back to her.
“You clearly aren’t feeling well,” Daran said coolly and stood up, “You should head back to the hotel.”
Harper bit her lips with tears forming in here eyes, “But…but how? I twisted my ankle earlier and was almost drown to death just a minute ago. I can’t walk back by myself, Unless…‘
She carefully stole a peek at Casper.
“…Unless Alpha Casper is willing to deploy a helicopter for me?” Harper asked softly, “We have one of those back in Riverside Pack. Daran always sent one to fetch me home when I was too tired of walking.”
Casper let out a light snort.
“Yes. We have a helicopter,” Casper said with a sarcastic smile. “But here in BloodMoon Pack, helicopters are only used for delivering corpse. Most able–bodied werewolves still prefer to walk.”
A brighter smile appeared on Casper’s face as he asked: “Do you want to squeeze in with the dead Miss Harper?”
Harper’s face turned pale instantly, “No…thank you…”
“That’s enough.”
Daran frowned as though he couldn’t bear with Harper’s nonsense anymore, “I’m taking you home.”
He stretched his body a little bit.
And then he shifted.

A gigantic black wolf appeared in of everyone’s eyes.
Casper narrowed his eyes slightly on Daran’s wolf. He could now see how Daran became a world’s top Alpha.
This wolf alone was intimidating to look at.
Harper revealed a gleeful smile and quickly climbed onto the wolf’s back. She hugged the wolf’s back and buried her face into its soft fur.
“I know you still care about me, Alpha.” She said softly.
Letting out a long howl, the wolf lunged forward and dashed into the forest. With its top speed, they should be back in the hotel within an hour.
Janet stared at them as they traveled away.
A bitter feeling seized her heart.

Janet stared at them as they traveled away.
A bitter feeling seized her heart.
When she was still Daran’s Luna, she once asked him if she could ride on his back.
But Daran refused her firmly, telling her that no Alpha would allow people to ride on their back.
Yet now. He was making an exception for Harper.
Daran just disappointed her once again.
Taking a deep breath to calm herself down, Harper turned around with a bright smile and said to the rest of the group:
“So….shall we go diving again now?”

That day they ended up having a blast.
The four of them dived many times till they got tired. Casper and Jared caught some fishes in the lake and they built a camp fire to grill the fish.
They didn’t head back home until sunset.
After the day of the hiking trip, Janet focused entirely on pack businesses.
There was about a week left before they headed down to Riverside Pack. As the Gamma, she had to work out the list of soldiers who were going to the training and the plan of how to get there.
Balvina was going with her. And so was Casper.

People had been surveying her from head to toe while whispering in small groups:
“…That’s her…Gamma Janet.
“…How cruel…how can we trust a heartless person like her to train our soldiers?”
‘…indeed…
Janet frowned and walked past the crowd.
She found Balvina in the middle of a heated discussion with Casper in the corner.
“Janet! Oh my god you are finally here!! Balvina grabbed Janet’s arm and hissed urgently
