Chapter 334
Alpha 335
Adrian froze in his place. His hands trembled as he took a step back from Natalia.
His chest moved from her palm as her hand was still in its position. He let out a shaky breath as he nodded his head.
"If that's what you want, then..."
He could not find any more words to say. Was she not the person he loved the most? Didn't he confess to her a few hours ago? Why was she speaking as though she were talking about someone else?
How could he think of losing her? He could never think of that. He loved her.
He realized tonight that it was always her. Both his wolf and his heart belonged to her. That was why he married her, even if he knew he could avoid the marriage. That night, he felt her wholly and wanted to wrap his arms around her once again. He always caused her pain, but he never considered losing her.
Maybe it was the reason when she suddenly disappeared from his sight, he had lost his mind.
Natalia saw him moving away from her. She looked away and turned around.
She then left him in the forest to bear the pain in his heart all alone.
Adrian did not stop moving backward. His gaze remained fixed on Natalia until she vanished from sight.
His back pressed against a tree. He raised his hand to wipe his face, but his gaze was drawn to his bloodied palm.
He felt disgusted. He turned to the tree and punched it in frustration.
"It's all because of her. She even stopped me from seeing my children's faces when they were born."
He kept punching at the tree until his own blood rushed out of his knuckles.
He did not feel any pain. The pain in his heart was more than anything he could endure.
That night, Adrian did not return home. He shifted into his wolf form and ran for so long he was not even aware of how far he had gone.
He was mad at himself. He wanted something to ease his broken heart. He ruined his beautiful and proud life with his own hands.
The next day, he went to the pack house. The atmosphere was tense as everyone waited for him to return.
He saw her mother fall ill. When he asked Harold about it, he revealed that her mother had been seriously injured by a serious disease. She would need a long time to regain her health.
He did not believe it at first, but Harold showed him medical reports. Adrian felt he had come to the edge of his downfall.
"Where are my children?" Adrian asked his officials.
"They are in their rooms. We brought them today from Natalia's house," Delta Julian replied.
Adrian went to his children's room and opened the door with a broken look.
He only had two kids to whom he

his own. Without

Aria rushed to him. He lifted her into his arms and stepped inside the room.
"Dad, you said to take care of But we could not do

= Ps om."
Adrian sat her next to Noah on the bed.
Noah was silently looking at his father. Adrian sat on his knees and looked at them.
"I am sorry. "I made your mommy cry," he told Aria with a bitter expression.
He gently placed his hand on Noah's head and rubbed his hair.
Noah was shocked by his father's upset face. He had never seen him like this.
"Dad, we want Mommy back in our lives."
Adrian's hands froze as he felt the pain Natalia had to endure a few months ago. She had to separate from her children. Today, his children wanted to be separated from him.
He took his hand away and muttered,
"If you want to move to your mother's house, I will not stop you two."
He got to his feet and turned to leave the room.
Noah and Aria got up from the bed. Aria grabbed Adrian's hand and stopped him by saying,
"Dad, we don't want to move there."
Adrian turned to face them, unsure what Aria was trying to say.
Noah reached out to take his other hand and said,
"We want to live with both of you together."
