Chapter 264
The next day, Aspen told Janet that he needed to be at Daran’s Luna screening. Yet the last thing that
Janet wanted to do was to go to this thing and see Daran pick
his future wife.
“Aspen, you have grown out of control!”
She straightened her face and tried to talk to the boy in a serious voice, “You made a lot of people
worried with your recent behavior. Do you know how mad your father will be when he finds out about
this? So no, you won’t be going to that screening. And you will come home with me and Lady Medline
now!”
The boy pouted.
He fluttered into Janet’s arms and begged her in the cutest voice possible, “Please Mom…don’t be
mad at me. I just want to hang out here for a bit longer. I promise! I will go back with you soon!”
Janet looked at his big innocent eyes and felt tempted to agree to anything that he wanted.
This boy was so hard to say no to.
“How long do you want to stay here?” she took a step back and asked, “There is gotta be a date. And
we need to stick to it.”
“Well…” the boy blinked, “How about we stay till daddy picks out his new Luna?”
Janet was astonished, “Daddy?!”
“King Daran,” the boy grimaced sticking his tongue out. “He said that I could call him daddy.”
Janet took in a deep breath, “Aspen Lockhart, you do not call another man your daddy! How will Westin
feel about this? It will break his heart!”
“It is just for fun! Please, Mommy, don’t tell Father. I swear I won’t do it again!”
Janet didn’t know how she should react to this.
Aspen had never shown this much affection to another man besides Westin. Daran was the only
exception.
Was this the ties of blood?
“Mom?” the bov called her again. “What do you say? Can we stay till King Daran
picks out his Luna?”
Janet pondered for a while and then sighed, “OK.”
This was probably the last time that Aspen got to spend with his biological father.
After they went back to the Lycan’s land, they would never meet again.
She couldn’t take this last chance away from her son.
“Oh yeah!” Aspen looked so happy, “Then can we go now? I asked a maid, and she told me that the
screening is in the great hall downstairs.”
Janet took his hand and reminded him once again, “When we are with someone else,
you need to act like I am only your nanny, Janine Kurt. The others can’t find out about who I really am
and that we are Lycans.”
“I understand, mommy.”
So they went downstairs to the great hall.
The doors were closed by the time they got there. The soldiers guarding the door told them that the
screening had already begun.
“I will inform the King that you are here,” said the soldier.
He went into the great hall and came back out moments later.
“You are free to go in now.”
Janet thanked him and took Aspen going into the hall.
Facing the entrance was a throne and Daran was sitting in it. He was talking to a man standing in front
of him when Janet and Aspen came in.
“Good day, my King.”
Janet curtseyed to him, holding her head down, “I have brought the young master here.”
Daran raised his head. A strange look flickered across his face when he looked at Janet.
“Lady Kurt.”
He raised his lips into a strange little smile, “You are just on time. Come. And meet your father.”
…What?
Janet’s mind went totally blank.
Her father? What was Daran talking about?
In her trance, the man standing in front of Daran turned around to face her. He was in his late 50s, with
a pale/thin face and soft brown eyes.
He didn’t look familiar to Janet at all.
And he was also checking Janet up with a shocked expression.
In a split of a second, Janet suddenly knew who this man was.
This man must be Lord Kurt, from Black Water Pack.
Supposedly the father of this fake identity that she made up.
Janet almost had a mental breakdown right on the spot. How the fuck did this happen?!
Medline told her that this cover–up was perfectly safe!
And the Kurts rarely left their own pack, so there would be no one to expose her fake identity.
But here Lord Kurt was, staring at her, with Daran watching them in the back.
She would be caught right in her lies if she didn’t do something!
“What is the matter?” Daran asked with a raised eyebrow, “Did you forget what your father looks like?”
Janet pinched her own arm. The pain helped her to calm down.
Then she strode up to Lord Kurt and curtseyed, “Father, it is so nice to see you here.‘
Lord Kurt stared at her with an odd expression on his face.
Janet raised her head looking back at him and said, “Why didn’t you let me know that you have
arrived? We should find a time and catch up sometimes.”
She gave Lord Kurt a pleading look, hoping that he would play along with her act. It was a long shot
but…
As long as this man didn’t expose her in front of Daran, she would find a chance to straighten things up
with him later.
She couldn’t have Daran became suspicious of her.
“Father? It is me. Janine.”
She blinked at the man, praying in her heart that he would come around.
“…Oh.”
Lord Kurt cleared his throat before finally speaking up:
“Right. Janine. I almost didn’t recognize you with…with this new dress that you are wearing.”
Great!
He went with her act!
Janet let out a long sigh of relief internally.

“So this is really your daughter?” Daran asked, his chin resting on his face.
“Yes, My King. This is my…youngest daughter,” Lord Kurt said. “As I was saying,

WHAT THE HELL???/
Janet’s jaw dropped.
She couldn’t hide the shock on her face.
Janet’s jaw dropped.
She couldn’t hide the shock on her face.
What were these two talking about now?!
“Oh, Lady Kurt, looks like that you didn’t know about this?”
The smile on Daran’s lips grew wider as he said:
