Chapter 16
Catherine’s POV
I was simply stunned by this thick-skinned man.
He told such a bad lie just to refute me!
Other than that night five years ago, I didn’t say a single word to him at all. How could that count as “know each other”?
“Noah, I’ll ask the butler to take you to my storeroom for fun?” Blake lowered his head and said to Noah gently.
Noah jumped down from the sofa and looked at Blake. He said with a warning tone, “Daddy, you
promised me and Hedwig that you won’t bully mommy.”
Blake wore a gentle smile on his face. “Noah, Daddy will just be chatting with your mommy. I won’t do anything bad to her.”
“Noah, don’t go anywhere else. You’d better come with me. Let’s look for Hedwig together.” I
hurriedly said to Noah, not wanting to face Blake alone.
“Mommy, don’t worry. You haven’t seen Daddy for so long. You must have a lot to say to him.”
Then the butler held Noah’s hand and took him away.
“Hey, you brat!” I couldn’t help but shout at his back as I watched Noah leave me alone.
“You’re a mother. Is this the way you talk to your kids?”
When Blake saw that Noah had left, the gentle look on his face instantly faded. And his face was ice
cold again.
“I don’t need you to tell me what to do. What did you just trick my son into signing? I warn you.
Don’t set my child up if you are a man.”
I couldn’t help but sneer at his disdainful gaze.
Blake’s face sank. He took a step forward and approached me. He was much taller than me, so I had to look up at him.
But his oppressive aura forced me to take a step back.
“Don’t you know best whether I’m a man or not?” Blake leaned over slightly, his lips almost
touching my ears.
His breath was burning my ears, like an electric current from the tip of my ears to every part of my body. My legs were slightly numb, and I could barely stand. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
I felt my face heat up. I couldn’t stand listening to his alluring voice close up, so I hurriedly turned my head.
“I don’t remember!”
“You don’t? Do you want me to show you again?”
When I heard his words, I turned to look at him and saw his mocking smile.
I don’t know where this bastard got his confidence. Did he think that all the female werewolves in the world wanted to sleep with him just because he was a Lycan?

“What do you want to show me? That you might not last more than a minute?” I couldn’t stand his proud look and mocked him. In fact, I lost my consciousness that night and didn’t know what had happened at all.
However, my words hurt his self-esteem.
He stared at me with a grim face, his tone full of danger and oppression.
“Believe it or not, I won’t let you get out of bed.”
“I think you’re more than a talker than a doer.” I laughed scornfully.
I felt the air around us was heating up because of what we were talking about.
I cleared my throat and said, “Give Hedwig and Noah back to me. I want to take them home.”
“This is their home. If you want to go, I won’t mind.” Blake’s attitude got tough.
I went to the sofa in the living room and sat down without looking at him. ‘I won’t go anywhere without my children.
“Although my house here isn’t as big as my other house in New York, I think I can find a guest room for you.” Blake didn’t give in.
I was annoyed by Blake’s words.
I began to regret returning to the Shadow Forest and coming to Sayreville.
Thinking that I might lose my child, I couldn’t help but feel upset.
I tried my best to hold back my tears as I looked at Blake and said word by word, “I want to take my children away.”
“In that case, we have to ask the children for their opinions. They are big kids now, and we should respect their decisions,” Blake said with a slight frown and a gentle tone.
I brought my children up. How would they choose him?
I asked immediately, “Then get your men to bring them here.”
“I believe that Noah is playing with his toys happily, and Hedwig is tasting something delicious. So… I’m afraid they can’t come at the moment.”
I felt that Blake was deliberately irritating me. I angrily bit my lower lip.
“Now, let’s talk about when we slept together.”
Blake was as confident and relaxed as an emperor. He sat down across from me on the sofa with his two long legs folded.
His low voice was filled with pressure.
My body stiffened and a chill rose from the soles of my feet.
That night lingered in my memory like a nightmare. I didn’t want to mention it again in my life.
“In my memory, I never slept with any women except that night…” Blake’s tone carried doubt, as if he was pondering over something and met a difficult problem.
“What? You fool around too much and can’t figure out who you slept with?” I snorted.
“Not everyone can sleep with me. But I remember that it was Gina that night. So, was that you or
Gina?” Blake asked.
The sound of Gina’s name formed a block in my chest.
On the day of the mating gathering, I found Gina in the square of the Shadow Forest and wanted to take back my mother’s obsidian necklace.
Blake stopped me and chased me away.
Gina claimed that she wanted to destroy the necklace with fire.
My eyes got moistened and tears of grievance and sadness rolled down.
Blake frowned and said in a low voice, “Just tell me the truth. I just want to know it.”
“I beg you… Please let me and my children go. Don’t take them away from me.”
I held down the grievances in my heart and begged. I had lost my mother’s necklace and couldn’t afford to lose my children.
I had no other choice but to beg the powerful, cold, and ruthless man in front of me.
“What if I say no?” Bloc’s voice was cold and emotionless.
I managed to stop my tears and said angrily, “Then I will sue you at the Council.”
Blake sneered and said arrogantly, “I advise you not. You can’t sue me. My backer is the entire werewolf kingdom and the royal family.”
I knew what he said was merely the truth rather than a threat.
His status and power were not a poor rogue could fight.
I lowered my head, silent.
My phone suddenly rang.
I took my phone from my bag and put it near my ear.
