It’s been 4 hours!. After Athan Buffay took off my hat, he stared at me as if he had found something. "You. who are you?" His dark green pupils darkened and he frowned. His low voice actually contained a hint of panic, my shoulders were tightly grasped by his hands, and his strength was too great for me to break free. He looked at me like he saw something rare, But the shock in his eyes was like he had lost his language. Did he know me?. I tried to raise my voice so that I didn't sound so scared: "Mr. Buffay, my name is Katherine Green, I'm not a thief, I have been looking for you. He went silent for a moment, then resumed his calm tone: "Looking for me? Do you know who I am?". "I don't know you, but I need your help, in fact, my husband. "Husband?” Athan Buffay interrupted me with a strange look on his face: "Wouldn't your husband be jealous if he knew you came to ask for help from a strange man?". Just when I was about to speak, he suddenly let go of me and took out his phone: "Klaus, bring two people to the resting lounge. "You misunderstood, I'm actually here for my husband. " As I was about to explain, he interrupt me again, only this time with his lips. The faint smell of mint spread in my mouth, the deep, long kiss almost took all my breath away. I felt my knees go weak, a domineering but not unfamiliar feeling hit me. I couldn’t control myself, I wanted to surrender to him, I wanted to surrender to my body! What had happened to me? I almost couldn't stand straight when he let go of me. What surprised me the most was that he suddenly exuded a strong aura when he kissed me, that is the aura of a werewolf! . I was forced to look up by that powerful oppressive force. In the past five years, although I have encountered werewolves living in human society, I have never felt this kind of fear. I was sure that if I provoke him right now, he could tear me apart in an instant! . No ordinary werewolf could have such great power, he must be an alpha!. For a second, I seemed to see his green pupils changing into another color, but th en returned to normal

This is the first time I have seen such self-control, he can suppress his wolf! Somehow, I found these pupils familiar. Have I seen him before? . "If you want me to help you, maybe you should think about the price you may have to pay, Miss Thief. " I saw Athan Buffay’s He said this with a cold voice, and then walked out the door. This man, he turne d out to be such a powerful werewolf . What just happened? Th e great Athan Buffay ju st kissed me, and left? . Athan Buffay left two bodyguards guarding the door. I tried to rush out several times but apparently they weren’t allowed to let me go. "How can you d o this?" I pro tested angrily. "Sorry, miss, we're just following orders," the tw o bodyguards said blankly. Bullshit instructions, this is the human world, not a werewolf pack that they can d o whatever they want with their high rank. Four hours have passed and he had not c ome back yet. I was left in the room wi th surprise and doubts flooding my mind. Will he ever come back? Why did h e kiss me? What does he mean when he said there is a price to pay? . Maybe it was the tension of the w hole night that made me so tired, before I knew it, I fell asleep. I had th at dream again. The fragrant lavender garden, the silver moonlig ht, and the man. He growled: “My mate…”, his kis s was deep and hot : “I’m sorry… I’ll be gentle…” . I was awakened by a strong sc ent of alcohol. Athan Buffay was sitting right beside me when I o pened my eyes. His stares scared me, I jump up fr om the chair and opened the distance between us. “Katherine, right? ” He said, “I thought you wanted to see me, then why are you so scared of me?” His nice voice seemed to be mixed with some displeasure, . “I need you to save my husband, Jack. He has blood cancer, and you are the only person in this city match his ma rrow

” My fingers trembled slightly, but I looked directly into the man's eyes: “Mr. Buffay, I know that the hosp ital has contacted you, but you never responded. You are the only one who can save him. Please, please save him!” . He didn't speak for a long time, and we just looked at each other. His deep eyes seemed to be calm, but they contained many emotions that I couldn't understand. He we nt silent, just when I thought he was going to get angry, suddenly he reached out his hand to me: "C ome here, come closer to me," he said, "If I agree to save him, what can you give me for exchange? " . I hesitated for a moment and walked up to him: " I know you don't need money, but if there is an ything I can do for you, I promise I will do it. “Anything?” He raised his hand and gently flipped my hair, his cold fingers brushed against my cheek, "If I say, the price is that you will never see him again, can you do it?" . Of course not! I was Jack's only family, and if I leave, he would have no one else! I don't want to agree, but also don't dare to refuse. I c lenched my fist, and haven’t been able to say anything for a long time. “Did you see it? It's not that easy to get my help. You should go back to your husband, think about it, and come back to me when you have an answer. ” Finally, Athan Buffay broke the silence. After saying this, he leaned forward and pulled out my phone from my pocket before I could react: “This is my personal cell,” he typed something on my phone, and his phone started ringing, looks like he’s got my number, too. “Call me when you think of an answer, Ms. Thi ef,” With a mischievous smile on his face, At han Buffay put my phone back into my pocket. "I’ll see you soon, Katherine" He walked to the door. "O h, by the way, bonus question, think about where you fir st saw me. If you figure it out, I'll grant you a wish. In a trance, I seemed to see his green pu pils changed color, but before I could se e clearly, he disappeared in the doorway. First time? Have I seen him before?
