My Mate Has Two Wolves

Chapter 262

Catherine's POV

I woke up with a splitting headache, which was probably the result of being drunk.

Although my wolf could help me with injuries, she couldn't do anything about my hangover.

I got up and took out my phone to check the time. It was three o'clock in the morning. I didn't expect to sleep till this time.

"Where am I?"

I stumbled to find the switch. Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and the living room light was on. It was so bright that I covered my eyes with my hand.

"Catherine, finally! You are awake!" I heard Melinda's concerned voice. Then I started remembering what happened.

"Does your head hurt? Have some milk," Melinda said.

I felt cold all over. I took the glass from Melinda. I was so touched that I almost cried.

"Thank you, Melinda!"

After having some milk, I felt a little better in my stomach, and my head stopped hurting so badly.

It was only then that I realized what time it was. I quickly turned on my phone and found that Dowen had called me many times.

It was a little past three in the morning.

"Shit!"

I forgot about the kids.

Did Dowen call me, because the kids were looking for me?

I was so worried. What if Hedwig couldn't sleep without me? What should I do?

With that in mind, I called Dowen.

As expected, Dowen was asleep. It took him a long time to answer the call, and he sounded polite.

"Ms. Wyatt, you finally called back. Where are you?"

"Dowen, did the children ask for me? Are they asleep?" I asked worriedly.

Dowen replied, "Noah and Hedwig are asleep. Don't worry. Where are you now?"

"I'm at a friend's place. If the kids are asleep, I'll hang up now. Please take care of them for me!" I pleaded.

"Ms. Wyatt, don't worry. I will take care of the children!" Dowen said seriously.

"Thank you! Go back to sleep." I realized that I sounded polite when I spoke to Dowen.

I adapted very quickly. My character and self-respect did not allow me to act like some abandoned woman who felt sorry for herself.

"Catherine, do you have any plans? What are you going to do next?" Melinda asked after I hung up the phone.

"I don't have any plans. The Chavez family doesn't want to see me, so I won't see them," I said.

"That being said, you already have two children with King Blake. Now, this happens. I'm afraid that it'll be too much for you. Are you ready for what's coming next?" Melinda said.

For a moment, I didn't know what to say. Everything had happened so suddenly. When I woke up yesterday morning, I thought my life was perfect. Yet at noon, Blake shattered my dream and made me feel devastated.

Melinda continued, "Catherine, why don't you go away for a few days? Or you might want to stay at home and skip work for the time being. If you don't have a place to stay, you can stay here."

"Thank you, Melinda, for caring so much about me. I'll look for a place to stay tomorrow. I can afford a small apartment." I shouldn't bother you.

"I will go with you tomorrow!" Melinda said.

I shook my head. "You don't have to, Melinda. I can do it. Besides, I might have to find someone tomorrow!"

"Who?" Melinda asked curiously.

"An old friend of mine. I need a favor." I looked down, not wanting her to see the loss on my face.

Seeing that I had stabilized, Melinda returned to her bedroom to sleep.

I sat alone until dawn, and I had figured out one thing. The most important thing now was not about my dignity, but how to explain everything to my kids.

I had to tell them that Blake and I broke up. If I told them that I didn't love Blake anymore, and I was in love with another man, would they be on my side?

I told Blake that I could deal with the kids. I must do what I said. Otherwise, Blake would think that I used the kids as an excuse to continue to pester him.

Would the children accept it? I didn't know the answer.

What if they couldn't accept it? What should I do then?

Did I have to keep badgering Blake for the kids' sake?

I fell asleep as I thought about it. When I woke up, Melinda had already gone to work. I called Harley and told him about me and Blake.

At last, I told him what I wanted, and he agreed at once.

I locked the door and left Melinda's place.

I picked up Harley in my car, and we went to the lakeside villa.

"Hedwig, Noah, nice to meet you. I'm your mommy's best friend ever since we were kids. My name is Harley," Harley spoke softly.

Hedwig and Noah were sitting on the sofa nervously, not moving at all. They sized Harley up with their big eyes.

Since they were motionless, I quickly patted them. "Hey! Don't be rude, OK? You are embarrassing him."

Hedwig asked loudly, "Mommy, why did you bring him home? Aren't you worried that daddy will be mad?"

Noah frowned and began to look at Harley more critically.

"Don't worry. Your daddy won't be mad!" I turned my head and said to the children. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

Noah immediately put on a straight face and asked seriously, "Mommy, did you have a falling out with Daddy? You brought this man back because you wanted to make daddy jealous, right?"

Noah was a smart boy, smarter than his sister. So, I wasn't surprised that he asked so.

So, I grabbed Harley's arm. "Is that who you think your mommy is? I'm sorry to tell you this now. But I'm serious this time, so you don't need to suspect anything."

Meanwhile, a man came in from the gate of the villa. I took a look, and it was Blake. He was looking at us with a sullen face.

"Daddy is back!" Hedwig quickly jumped off the sofa and ran over. "Daddy, you finally came back! Mommy took another man home. She said she didn't want you anymore!"

Harley frowned and turned to look at me.

The air in the room froze instantly. I clenched my fists to prevent myself from turning around to look at that man.
