Revenge to the Alpha Mate Chapter 215

Celena’s POV It seed that everyone had been acting a bit strange recently. It appeared that they all cared about very much. Even little Aurora would co running over from ti to ti, mysteriously sharing her snacks with . Oh my God, I really didn’t know how to get along with children! I couldn’t share with her my childhood experiences of getting my skin pierced by a syringe or being beaten up, could I? So I always politely thanked her and then rummaged through so snacks that I had hidden and which she found novel to share back. But we got to know each other better and better. Eventually, I could naturally take the cookies from her chubby hand on my own initiative. She had beco a good friend with whom I can share my emotions. For instance, if I felt a bit bored today, she would give a sweet fruit candy. If I was in a good mood today, she would blink her eyes and handed a mini ice cream. How wonderful it would be if I could have had such happiness when I was a child. It was just that Lily always showed up behind us mysteriously, and then used a kind of... Well, he looked at Aurora with an indescribable strange expression. Once I couldn’t help but ask her if there was sothing wrong with how Airo and I interacted. She imdiately waved her hands, smiling a bit stiffly: "Absolutely not! Sweetie, you two are making friends. I’m so happy for you." One day, I overheard Xaver telling his son that he should eat less ice cream as it’s bad for his teeth. It was only then that I suddenly realized that children really shouldn’t eat too many sweets. Feeling a bit guilty, I ntioned it to Ailo. She waved her little hand dismissively, acting like a little adult: "It’s totally fine, Celena. I’ve actually been getting a bit sick of it lately." Ailo would also ask all sorts of strange questions that made chuckle. Like, "Why don’t werewolves have wings? Wouldn’t that make them run faster?" Or, "Do witches really have lots and lots of pockets? Like in cartoons?" She often made laugh so hard I forgot all my troubles for a mont. Lily’s POV My daughter, clever and mischievous little Airo, beca fast friends with Celena. Of course, the price was her sugar intake skyrocketing. I really hoped she didn’t co crying to Mom when her cavities start hurting. Ailo even taught herself to use all sorts of random questions to mask the real purpose of our "investigation." Like subtly asking Celena if she had any other friends besides us that she didn’t see often. But after a round of probing, we didn’t find anything suspicious. Celena’s life was as plain as a blank sheet of paper. Ethan began to think maybe we were overreacting. "Lily, Celena’s background is too unique. We can’t scrutinize her every little change like we would with an ordinary girl. Maybe she just needs ti." Jacob was the most restless among us. Celena had now fully reconnected with Lily, the witches, and even little Airo, laughing and chatting freely. Only with him did progress seem impossible. After that night they’d unexpectedly fallen asleep embracing, Celena remained as calm around him as if he were just another familiar face,nothing more. This tornted him deeply. The only glimr of good news was that his body was recovering well, his wounds mostly healed. He felt compelled to do sothing tangible for Celena,like finding Brett’s body and giving her closure. Instead of hanging around here playing these childish detective gas with us, digging into secrets she might not even want anyone to know.
