Cupid
I went still. I stared into her eyes without seeing anything for a long while. I was simply stunned. I didn’t even believe I had heard what she had just said.
“Which Marlik will be accused of drugs?” I asked, murmuring to her.
She swallowed, pulling back slightly to search my eyes.

“Roc has a friend from the Moon Tower. The document was already finalized, and brother mentioned helping his friend with the final draft. He brought it home, and I happened to see it. Maybe I should have informed you sooner, Cupid. You look bothered p>
I looked away to steady my breath. Yes, I was bothered but not because something couldn’t be done now that I knew. It was the fact that my father hadn’t told me this.
I continued to drive, and until we met Pa. Nashville, Snow’s chauffeur I didn’t speak.
I parked my car beside the waiting vehicle that would drive Snow home. At that, she looked at me as if surprised I wouldn’t be driving her personally.
“He’ll get you home safely,” I said softly.
She nodded. She reached for her bags in the backseat and turned to me in silence.
She was worried about me. I could tell. I sighed, looking at her.
“Thanks for informing me, and thank your sister in law for me. I loved the meal p>
With that, I kissed her lips as though to assure her I was fine.
Only then did she smile and head out.
I watched as she settled in the car and Pa. Nashville drove her off, leaving me sighing from where I sat.
Moon Tower. A case about to open and my father hadn’t informed me. Marlik, at that?
I lowered my gaze and sighed shakily. I had known it wouldn’t end there. Marlik being pronounced free. I knew evil would come for him soon, and I had planned to shield him at all
costs.

Chapter 186
Moon Tower was a place of punishment for werewolves who abused their freedom hary werewolf taken there as a criminal hardly stepped out sane again. It was different from normal jail.
In everywhere, the Godlike mafia empire had moles, including the Moon Tower. Which means my father would have known about Marlik’s case, but he hadn’t let me know.
Goosebumps rose on my skin as thoughts raced through my mind. What would Mother do if her son was taken again into the Moon Tower, at that? She might not even survive it this time.
I was lost in thought when my cellphone rang, I glanced at the screen to see it was Desmond
For a heart–stopping second, I stared at it and wondered if he knew about this too. People usually contacted him before me directly. Did he also know the Moon Tower would be coming for Marlik?
I let the cellphone ring without answering. Following it was his text.
‘Why are you not moving p>
I looked away from that. He must be watching my location, the red dot beep that showed where I was must have appeared stationary.
There were times I wouldn’t want to have misunderstanding with my father because I believed he had tangible reasons but this time, I thought differently.
When I arrived at the Godlike pack, I saw the human friends of the pack members just leaving after Thanksgiving.
I headed into the hall, following the scent, and finally arrived at my father’s study. I paused at the door, staring at the fine wood, when Desmond appeared from ahead in the hall.
“Boss, you’re here,” he said.
I ignored him and opened the door gently.
There, I found my father with Almira. He was busy with pack affairs documents while Almira, as she often did, was sorting some out for him.
At my presence, she grinned at once and rushed over to me. I held her for only a heart- stopping second before pulling away to walk ahead.
“You’ve finished the first charity. How was it?” Father said while scribbling his signature without looking up.

Suddenly, he paused. He read the room. The energy. Slowly, he looked up to my eyes, and I met his brielly before bowing.
He didn’t respond. He could tell there was something. He waited, and when I didn’t speak, he nodded.
“Your mother will be here in a few days to celebrate the end of the year with us. Be prepared to stay here during her stay p>
“Luna Sash is not my mother,” I replied so fast that the sharpness was evident.
Tension suddenly rose. Desmond looked at me as if I had lost my mind, and Almira grew wary. Her fingers slid to me to keep me calm.
“Cupid p>
I looked away to gather my thoughts before asking my father quietly,
“Don’t you have anything to say to me p>
He paused at once, his face never displaying an expression I could read, then came the one- syllable answer.
“No p>
“Not about Marlik?” I asked again.
This time, his expression faltered. Tension flashed before it was replaced by the normal look.
“Who? That thief from Downside?” he questioned.
Somehow, the world went still. He stared at me, and I held his gaze, my heart sinking with each passing second.
“Yes, that thief. Just as I am. You have nothing to say to me about him? How he’ll be charged with a drug case by the Moon Tower authorities p>
“Cupid, what are you saying?” Desmond cajoled, but I ignored him.
I didn’t speak, and somehow it tore my heart to hear that from Father.
Perhaps that’s all I was to him too. Just a thief from Downside.
