The Dark Side Of Fate Chapter 481

Silly of her to assume the party interested in adoption won't take it off to see what they were getting.

Thinking of it all, Lucy was pretty dumb. But I was grateful for her. However badly I was treated. I was thankful she did not throw me away when she realised I would never be adopted. Had she done that, I might have been dead by now.

The only thing I wasn't happy about was her trying to send me to the workhouse.

I would have done odd jobs, but a whoring profession was not the career path I wanted to take.

She tried to convince me, and the person that wanted me to come and work for them offered a lot of money. She said I would give her place an exotic touch.

I laughed, remembering the conversations.

They were all in my past now. I looked on to the future.

One thing that stayed with me was the constant dying of my hair. I just couldn't stop it. I had stopped it at a time and let my platinum hair grow out when I wanted to start the food truck business, but people stayed away.

Business picked up when I returned to being a brunette, which was how it became a habit. Broke or not, I always found the time to dye my hair.

Still in thought, I heard the doorknob turn. I looked in that direction and saw Leo and Max walk in. I was happy, but I controlled myself.

Leo looked at me and smiled. At the same time, Alpha Max walked straight to his room.

Leo joined me on the couch, and I sat up.

"Did you miss me?" he asked me, and I shook my head, which made him laugh a bit.

He pulled me close gently and kissed my neck. I held the moan, but he put in more effort; I could not help but moan.

"How was the sandwich?" he asked me, nibbling on my ear, and I pulled away and gave him a thumbs down.

He was surprised and tickled me for marking him down.

Then we kissed.

I wrapped my arms around his neck, and he made me sit on him on the couch. Still kissing, he held me close tightly. We had to break the kiss to catch our breaths. I rested my head against his, and he smiled at me.

"'I missed you," he confessed, and it gave me butterflies.

"Maybe I did too, but a little," I said, and we laughed.

He looked so alive, and there was a light in his eyes that wasn't there when I first saw him.

"What do you want to do today?" He finally asked me, and I shrugged. I could not think of anything to do.

"We can go hunting in wolf form," he said, and Aurora was elated.

I had never been able to do that because most woods were privately owned, and I was always an outsider and a nobody .

I would have been killed for trespassing if I had gone into those woods.

"We will go hunting tonight because we are going to the north tomorrow." He said, and even though I was excited about hunting and going on a trip with him, I was nervous about meeting the Royals and nobles.

They were just way above me.

I did not know how to fit in and was scared of being in the same place as Tamia. She was gorgeous and looked very normal. I did not want a comparison, but I must be optimistic.

Leo lifted me and carried me towards my room.
