Chapter 81
Next day.
Imperial palace.
Beatrix’s room.
5:30 am.
Lavana walked out of the dressing room garbed in an ankle-length, plain light yellow gown made of the best silk. Despite being a little loose, it didn’t hide her curves. Her hair had been braided into a single ponytail. She took off the flip-flops and changed into black low flats.
She saw the little girl was still sleeping and sighed. She didn’t want to wake her up. She seemed to be enjoying her sleep.
Phoenix said he would be here by 6. Well, since she was already prepared, she should just spend the last few minutes with the little girl. She climbed onto the bed and lay beside Beatrix, hugging her from behind while gently stroking her hair.NôvelDrama.Org: owner of this content.

Phoenix had appeared in the room and gently tapped his sleeping mate on her right shoulder. She opened her eyes and turned her head to see that it was Phoenix. He’s dressed in a black t-shirt that stopped above his belly button, white crop jacket and white pants with white converse to top it all.
She flashed a smile and quietly got off the bed. “Sullivan, good morning.” she greeted.
He smiled. “Morning, darling. Did you have a good sleep?” he pecked her forehead.
She nodded and then mind linked. “You?”
“I slept well.”
“Um.. Please, can you help me write a letter to her?”
“A letter?” he took out paper and pen from his storage ring. “So what do you want written down?”
“You aren’t shocked that I can’t read?”
“What’s there to be shocked about? Being in your situation in that damn pack all those years with no access to books or even a friend, that’s understandable. After the competition, I will teach you, Lavie. So back to the topic. What do you want me to write down?”
“Um…”
“Oh wait. I think this option will be better. She can hear your voice all over again if she wants.” he took out a strange device that she’d never seen.
“Alright, say what you wanna say.” he placed the device on the table.
She began. “Um, my sweet little sis, Beatrix. I love you so much. If you’re hearing this, I might’ve already left. for the competition. I’ll miss you a lot, baby girl. But I must go. Phoenix will accompany me and we’ll return with the victory. I want you to take good care of yourself. Don’t spend the nights sleepless and eat healthy, do some bodily training, enjoy nature. I will return to you like a thief and surprise you.”
At this point, Phoenix walked to Lavana and placed his arm around her shoulder.
“Baby girl, we’ll be back soon. Do as your big sis said. I want to see a happy little girl full of life when I return. ” he then kissed a stunned Lavana briefly and faced the device again.
“Sullivan…” she called out in a whisper, wearing a puzzled face.
“Oh, this device can also let her see us too.” he clarified.
“Really?” her eyes widened and she arranged her clothes. “Do I look good now?”
“You always do. Even if you become a skeleton, you’ll be a goddess still.”
“Hey, who’s a skeleton?” she pulled his right ear.
“Ow! It’s me. It’s me!” he wailed.
“Hmph!” she let go of his ear, dropped her frowning face and smiled at the device. “Beatrix, when we return from the competition, our wedding will be very close. Nah, don’t practice that amazing dance yet. Wait till we return with the good news.”
Light covered them as they waved and both vanished.
Not long after, Beatrix got out of bed and ran to the device. She pressed a button and a holographic image of Lavana showed.
She’d been pretending to be asleep as she was afraid she won’t let Lavana leave. After seeing and listening to what was recorded, she smashed the device in two.
“Big sis, Eldest brother, I will wait for the good news. Watching this all over again will only make me do the opposite.” she whispered before going back to bed.
The servants will soon be here to help her bathe and do other stuff.
…
Meanwhile, Phoenix and Lavana, who had appeared at a distance outside the room, watched Beatrix’s actions through the open window with a puzzled face.
“So she wasn’t sleeping? And why did she smash that device?” she couldn’t help but ask her mate.
“For a good reason, dear. You told her not to have sleepless nights.”
“Then a letter would still have been the best.”
“She’d still destroy it, especially since it’s not your handwriting.”
“That girl…” Lavana sighed.
“Well, she’s got an excellent memory and can play it over and over in her head. Come on, let’s go. We have to catch up with the Blood stars.” he urged and she nodded in agreement.

Greuston suites.
Jygane city.
Alpha Chase was seated on a rocking chair close to the private pool that came with his lodged residence. He was holding a glass of red wine while on a phone call.
“Hold on. You’re telling me that Rox Frost cannot even find a pathetic omega wolf after four days? I wanted her found before yesterday but nah, I got no news. Now you call to tell me this gibberish?” he barked.
“Please rein your anger, Alpha king Chase. I assure you, we are doing our best.”
“Your damn best isn’t good enough!” Chase barked. His eyes had turned red.
“Alpha Chase, I’ve been wanting to ask you. Are you sure that the person we’re looking for is really an omega? Coz if she was, we’d have found her in a maximum of 2 days no matter where she wants to hide in this world. This is the first time we encounter such a case of not finding a simple omega wolf you claim she is.”
“She is a bloody omega. Forget it.” Alpha Chase cut the call and threw the phone elsewhere in rage. His chest heaved up and down as his look turned even more sinister.
“Lavana, Lavana. You must feel so great, huh? You’re being secured by the strong person you met with. That’s why they can’t find you. I’m pretty sure you’ve become an Olmpha by now. But so what? In my eyes, you’re still that pathetic omega. If you know what’s good for you, don’t attend the competition to challenge me or you’ll surely regret it.” he thought with gritted teeth. In his pocket was a bottle containing a black liquid. The black sorcerer behind his mom, Anita, had given in case he encountered the Olmpha. A normal Olmpha has four tails- 3 more than an Alpha. So this liquid will let him assume that identity for 8 hours. There was a repercussion though. That’s why it was a last resort if he saw she was too dangerous for his wolf form to beat.
He had grand ambitions to rank first in this competition and he wasn’t gonna let anything stop him.
His mate, who had been swimming with only a see-through pink bra on in the pool, got out and suddenly took off the bra. She wore a smile as she walked to him. Chase’s face no longer looked that sinister now. His mate was really good; she had become pregnant with his child. She was going to give brith to a son- his heir! He brought her along because she was very eager to see what the triennial competition was like, as she’d never gotten to attend.
“Chase honey, you wanna see if the baby will let you in?” she asked with a grin. Without waiting for his answer, she turned around so he could see her back view. She bent over and spreading her legs apart to reveal her tempting c*nt.
“If you like what you see honey, come on in and eat this delicious meal in front of you.” she beckoned.
“I’m not hungry,” Chase replied with a frowning face. This bitch of a mate!
Can’t she tell he’s unhappy here? He’s seen that hole thousands of times. He’s not even in the mood. An Olmpha is out there on the loose that could threaten his position and here she was, showing that hole to him? Doesn’t she have any other skills? This mate of his does whatever she likes, commanding others to do the simplest of things after becoming Luna. He somehow started to get fed up with her but then she told him she’d become pregnant and it was a boy.
His mate straightened her body and asked him why he responded that way.
