"Dexter is not stable right now, he will not be able to cooperate with the other people," Zeke said and then lifted his head. "Let me go in his stead, my lord."
Zeke looked upset for his son because Dexter was not mentally stable, but he didn’t even bat an eye when he learned his daughter was killed in such brutal way. He was vexed over the fact Cane had harmed that woman, whose Dexter had grown attached to. His plaything...
Now his son didn’t even want to listen to him at all. This was truly upsetting.
However, Decratic didn’t agree with his suggestion. "No. I don’t want him to cooperate with the other people. I want him to go wild. I want him to get his revenge and take down as many people as he could... don’t you think that’s what he needed right now? Hm?"
Zeke lowered his head again solemnly. "If that’s what my lord deemed right, I agreed with it." Zeke’s loyalty to Decratic was unparalleled. It was proven countless times.
And with that, Decratic resumed his focus on the perching crow on his finger.
"Na... your interference will mean nothing..." Decratic muttered to himself. He caressed the crow’s head and smirked. "Keeping her heart pure, huh?" he cackled. "What a waste of energy..."
================================
"Will you put this on again?" Will suddenly spoke, as he fished out something from his pocket.
Hanna and Amee were helping with the children, there were a lot of them and their age ranged between four to twelve years old.
However, there were a lot of infants too, because the pregnant women just gave birth within these few months. It was hard to track down who was the father of who.
"Hanna?" Hanna turned her head to look at what Will meant and immediately she teared up.
Both of them were sitting on a bench, drinking warm ginger because tonight was rather cold and it was a tiring day to say the least, only now they could have some alone time, though they were not really alone, since the children were running around them, being happy to have full stomach and was able to play.
It seemed, the world in the children’s eyes was very simple.
"Only if you put it on me again," Hanna replied. This was the same necklace that Will gave to her, it could be considered as his first gift.
However, Hanna returned it to him when their relationship was having a really hard time, but now the two of them were having a better understanding for each other, Will wanted her to have it again.
"It will be my pleasure." Will smiled, he felt very lucky to have this woman in his life, more so when she had never really given up on him, despite all the misery he put her through. She was an angel in his eyes and there was nothing could change that.
Hanna raised her hair and turned her body around, showing her nape, making it easier for Will to put the necklace on her again.
Carefully, Will put the necklace on her and then kissed her shoulder, which made Hanna blushed.
"How is it?" Hanna asked, she turned around and saw Will’s eyes softened.
"Beautiful like always," Will replied, he leaned over and kissed her cheek.
However apparently the children there had taken noticed on them and started to laugh when Will kissed her, they squealed and then cheered for them, which made Hanna’s face turned even redder.
It was not the first time for Hanna to take care of the children, since she and Will used to be surrounded by the little one when they were in Howling Wolf pack orphanage.
"What are you staring at?" Will asked, he stood up and started to playfully chase after all of them.
Laughter filled the air, the crispy sound of their happy cries warmed everyone’s heart. Even when life was not so kind to them, these little angels still found happiness in little things.
Their laughter also the right medicine to heal Will. That was the best decision alpha Cane had made when he decided to leave Will behind and have him helped Hanna with the children, because in their pure souls, he found his solace and was finally able to deal with himself.
"Both Will and you will be a great parent," Amee said, as she sat down on the spot where Will was sitting earlier, watching him chasing after the children. "Children love you both."
Hanna blushed even more, she stared at her man with so much adoration and her imagination ran so wild to think about having Will’s child.
"I hope there is still happiness left after all this is over." Hanna smiled very gently, as she touched her necklace, while Amee squeezed her other hand.
