Chapter 140 You've Worked Hard Hayley's POV: I looked over at her and smiled warmly. “Tello, Aunt Ta." Once Tara realized it was truly me, she transformed excitedly into a gentle she-wolf and trotted over, nuzzling her furry head into my embrace. "Alpha, it really is you! You're finally back!" Her voice was full of emotion, and after a moment, she shifted back to human form.
"For three years, I've been waiting every day, hoping you'd return. And now you're here! I'm so happy. I don't even know what to say!" "How have you all been?" I asked. Tara nodded eagerly. Good! We're all doing well! Your great-aunt has been asking about you constantly, and Uncle Josh is also doing well... Oh, and Loki just had a litter of puppies-they're nearly a month old now. Con, let's go inside the manor, and I'll tell you everything.

Tara watchedwith a smile and said, “Alpha, I've been cleaning your room every day, and the sheets are all fresh and new. You should go upstairs and rest. I'll head to the kitchen to have dinner prepared.” I nodded. "Thank you, Aunt Tara. You've worked hard.
"Oh, and Aunt Tara, when we're in the manor, please don't call'Alpha' Just callHayley Tara nodded and went off to the kitchen.
I picked up the little dog and headed up the stairs to my room. As soon as we got there, Loki squirmed to be put down, and I let it go.
I walked to the window and opened it wide. Outside was a breathtaking lavender field, stretching to the horizon, just as it was in my memories. I took a deep breath, inhaling the familiar scent, and even Hera felt soothed and content.
Hera loved the scent of lavender-but it was nothing compared to her infatuation with Benjamin's scent. Benjamin... Why am I thinking about him again? Benjamin's POV: 1/3 Chapter 140 You've Worked Hard Mr. Josh.
Finished Standing in front of a manor, I double-checked the address in my hand. It was correct, so I pressed the doorbell.
A housemaid opened the door, and seeing my unfamiliar face, she asked politely, "Sir, whom are you here to see? I replied in fluent Francette, "Is this Mr. Josh's residence?" At my question, her eyes lit up with recognition, and she bowed respectfully, "You must be the honored. guest Mr. Josh mentioned-Mr. Benjamin, the Alpha of Midnight Pack?” I nodded, and the maid ledinside.

Intrigued, I climbed into the carriage, and the driver set off along a winding path through the manor grounds, givingthe chance to take in the surroundings. you
The manor was enormous, with vineyards stretching as far as the eye could see, lush grapevines bearing clusters of green and purple grapes. There was a field of golden sunflowers, their faces turned toward the sun, and then... a stunning lavender field, its purple blooms painting the landscape like an ethereal dream. "Mr. Benjamin, we've arrived!" The driver stopped the carriage in front of the castle and called to me.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI looked up at the castle, my curiosity growing. Who exactly was this, Mr. Josh? I'd never heard Grandpa mention him before.
I got off the carriage, anticipation fillingas I stepped onto the castle grounds.
Hayley's POV:
Out in the courtyard, I was pushing a bicycle with one hand and holding a paper kite in the other. Behind me, my loyal little dog Loki was following, wagging his tail happily. "Aunt Tara, I'm taking Loki to fly the kite. We'll be back soon." I had barely finished saying this when Tara's voice cthrough our mind-link from inside the castle.
