Chapter 127
Ruby was very uncomfortable with how open Aiden’s admiration toward his ex mate. He shouldn’t have felt anything now when there was no more mate bond between them. His bond was supposed to be with her, but it felt very weak.
If she could say, the bond was as weak as a dry leaf.

However, what Ruby felt inside, didn’t appear on her expression. Her face looked as gentle as before, she carried herself better than before, because she didn’t want to humiliate herself in front of Lilac, though the luna of the lycan pack looked very graceful, no one could compare to her.
“Stop staring at me,” Lilac said to Hunter in low voice, she could feel how his heated gaze fell on her neck and this made her body shuddered. Her reaction to his attention was rather extreme, especially when his hand that was on her waist caressed her body.
“Do you want to ditch the party?” Hunter asked again, his warm breath caressed her skin and ear, this made Lilac blushed, knowing what the meaning behind his suggestion.
“Hunter!” Lilac hissed.
People didn’t know that Hunter was teasing his mate, because all they could see was how lovey dovey the two of them, which only made Aiden’s blood boiled with anger.
Along the way to the nursery room, people stared at Hunter and Lilac, they couldn’t believe that the orphan, who turned out to be the mate of their future alpha, but then after some scandal and rejection became the mate of the alpha lycan, could look so graceful. She looked like the real luna, not only because that was her status, but because she carried herself perfectly.
Most of them thought, Lilac would be treated like a sla ve. The lycan wouldn’t even glance at her direction, because she was not part of them, they had heard how the lycan was a very territorial creature and Lilac was an outsider, almost all of them pitied Lilac to be taken away as a symbol of peace.
However, they were completely wrong and now they were dumbstruck!
If people could see how much progress that Lilac had and how well she was being treated by the alpha lycan, let alone Aiden and Ruby. The two of them held the bitterness in their heart.
Finally, this seemingly long journey to the nursery room ended and when they entered the room, luna Jasmine was there.
The firstborn was always special and luna Jasmine couldn’t stop gushing over her first

O
grandson, she didn’t care whether Ruby liked it or not, because as a new mother, she tended to be very anxious when there were a lot of people around her baby, especially when they tried to touch him.
And right now, that was what they were trying to do. They made Azel uncomfortable and her precious baby was crying.
The sound of Azel’s cry squeezed Ruby’s heart, in which she immediately rushed inside and took her baby from luna Jasmine.
“What are you doing?!” Luna Jasmine snapped angrily when the baby was being taken away from her. She didn’t even realize the other people inside the nursery room until Aiden warned her that there was someone else there.
And when luna Jasmine turned around, as she caught a familiar scent, which she thought would never be here anymore, she was stunned beyond word, because right in front of her was standing a beautiful young girl with clear eyes, the lilac dress she was wearing complementing her complexion perfectly.
For a moment, luna Jasmine could only stare at Lilac. This was the exact young girl, that she wanted for her son, but unfortunately, thing didn’t happen the way she wanted it to
bc.
“Lilac…” luna Jasmine finally muttered her name.
“Long time no see, luna Jasmine,” Lilac said politely, but then she glanced at Ruby, whose face had turned very ashen. “Should I call you just Jasmine, since the luna of the pack is luna Ruby now?”
The shock on luna Jasmine’s expression shifted into anger, but then it changed in a split second with a beautiful, sweet smile, the kind of smile that Lilac always saw whenever she forced herself to be polite.
“You can call me anything, Lilac,” luna Jasmine replied gently, as if the problem in the past had been forgotten and there was never a contention between them. “Alpha Hunter, nice to see you again.”
“Jasmine,” Hunter said her name, which he knew very well would upset her.
However, luna Jasmine was not an easy foe, she wouldn’t let her emotion got the better of her. “I see you just came now.” She nodded. “I thought you were too busy to come, but I am glad you are here.”
“We come here for something else, but because there is this ceremony, it will be polite for us to attend to,” Hunter replied, which made luna Jasmine glared viciously at him. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
How could someone insult another person with such calm expression and decent

O
words? The way Hunter chose his words showed how wicked he could be.
Beside him, Lilac wanted to smirk, but she kept her expression impassive and shifted her attention toward the baby in Ruby’s arms. This was the baby that had severed the mate bond between her and Aiden, but this was also the baby, who had saved her from this nasty pack and let her to meet with Hunter.
She was more than happy to thank this beautiful baby boy, therefore, Lilac was all smiling when she approached Ruby to see the baby.
“Who is his name?” Lilac asked with cheerful voice. After all, they came here to see the baby, right? So, why not greeted this little one properly?
“Azel,” Ruby replied curtly. She didn’t like the name at all.
“Azel… what a beautiful name…” Lilac gushed. “Can I hold him?” she asked for permission.
On the other hand, Hunter had his eyes on his mate and then blurted out. “Do you want a baby?”
