Chapter 59: Aunt Carol

It wasn’t until Kate and I were both in the car, and I saw that Alex was some distance away from our car, that I turned my head to Kate. I asked the question that I had wanted to ask for a while. “What happened to you just now? You’ve been out of your mind since we left the car.”

Kate didn’t say anything, but I saw her hands shaking as she held the steering wheel. I was really afraid that she would drive straight into a tree.

“I...” Kate only said one word before she shut her mouth tightly. I could tell from her furrowed brows that she was struggling.

In front of the car, I could already see the lights coming from the houses of the Ancient Woods Pack. We had arrived at the core area of the pack. Alpha Alex was standing in front of our car, waiting for us to get off.

Kate killed the engine, but she did not move. I followed her gaze and saw that she was staring at Alex.

“Cecily”

I heard Kate call my name and turned to look at her.

Kate’s face was flushed, and her emerald eyes were abnormally glowing. Her gaze was still on Alex, and I suddenly had a wild guess.

Kate said, “I think he’s my fated mate.”

Kate’s words struck me like thunder.

Werewolves should be happy to find their mate. Of course, everyone said that you should be with your mate. But no one told us what to do when we already had a lover.

“Ahem, so what do you plan to do?” I cleared my throat.

“I don’t know either.” Kate shook her head. “I felt it before I even met him. I was thinking about what to do while driving, but I had no idea.”

“So, he knows that you are his mate too?” I felt strange about this. Werewolves could hardly control themselves when they found their mates, but even though Alex was curious about Kate, he didn’t immediately go forward and hug her.

“I think our powder covered up my scent. He doesn’t seem to know yet,” Kate said.

“But the powder doesn’t work all the time,” I pointed out.

“I know.” Kate scratched her hair in frustration.

“But fortunately, you still have some time,” I comforted her.

Alpha Alex dropped us off at Kate’s aunt’s house and left.

Now Kate and I sat awkwardly at the irregular table where the wood grain was visible, holding the hot tea that Aunt Carol had served us.

Aunt Carol, who had the same green eyes as Kate, was staring at Kate and me. Her long blonde hair hung down to her chest. One could tell she must have been a charming beauty when she was young.

Her high cheekbones supported the contours of her entire face. She wore a pair of homely pajamas. She looked like a beautiful and comfortable woman.

“Tell me, why did you two girls suddenly come to me?”

Aunt Carol’s tone was very sharp. Then, I recalled that Kate said her aunt had a Ph.D. in psychology. She used to work as a psychological consultant.

Although she had turned down a few jobs after marrying into the Ancient Woods Pack, she occasionally took clients for counseling.

We told her the whole story, but I left out the part where Michael was a Lycan prince, and Kate didn’t say that she had just discovered the Ancient Woods Pack’s Alpha was her mate.

After we told Aunt Carol the whole story, she was silent for a long time.

Kate and I looked at each other, not knowing what was going through her mind. Aunt Carol, as a therapist, was always very good at hiding her thoughts.

After a while, Aunt Carol tapped her finger on the table and said, “You’re not being completely honest with me.”

Kate and I looked at her nervously.

Aunt Carol looked at Kate and said, “My dear niece, you said that you and your boyfriend had a little misunderstanding and wanted to go away for a bit, but you did not dare to look me in the eye. So there must be more than a small misunderstanding between you.”

Kate lowered her head. I looked at Aunt Carol in surprise, impressed by her sensitivity.

“But I don’t want to interfere in your emotional matters. If you want to tell me, I will listen to you. If you don’t want to tell me, you can stay here until you are ready to leave.”

Aunt Carol turned her gaze to me and said, “As for you, your story sounds very unusual.”

I said, “What I said is true.”

I turned my head to look at Kate and said, “Kate can attest to me too.”

Aunt Carol waved her hand and said, “The two werewolves are your mates. You rejected the first one but were locked up by the second one. So you want to escape. Am I right?”

I nodded.

“According to what you said, your first mate, Robert, is also the son of your pack’s Alpha. He first abandoned you and then tried to get you back. At this time, the second mate appeared, brought you back to his house, and locked you up.

“Then, there is a problem. If he’s just an ordinary werewolf, how can he take you away from the Alpha’s son in front of everyone? You didn’t mention being stopped by anyone. So what’s his identity?”Aunt Carol analyzed.
