Secrets Beneath Erebus

Secrets Beneath Erebus
The way men and women approached their ideas about love was different, and Dylan cannot fully understand Taya's perspective.
He simply said, "I don't know what Sophia was thinking at the time. If you want to know the specific reasons, come back with me and ask my grandfather."
Taya handed the report back to Dylan and said, "Dylan, thank you for coming to see me and letting me know about my mother's background."
Dylan's face stiffened, "Cousin, I came to do the identification for you, not just to let you know about your mother's background, but also to take you back to the Lawrence pack."
Taya smiled, "Thank you for your kindness, but I have my own home now."
Dylan looked at her abdomen and said, "Although you are mated, it doesn't prevent you from returning to the Lawrence pack to recognize your relatives."
Taya replied, "I think it's enough for us to know who each other is. There's no need to recognize each other."
It was not surprising that Taya was indifferent to pack ties, mainly because she didn't feel much affection when she was young, and now that she was past the age of longing for pack affection, she didn't care too much.
Dylan still wanted to persuade her, and Taya said, "You said that the decision is up to me after the identification results come out, so my decision is not to go back to the Lawrence pack with you." Dylan asked, "Is it because my grandfather didn't mate Sophia, you think he's a bit unfeeling, that's why you refuse me?"
Taya neither nodded nor shook her head, "I don't know about what happened between your grandfather and your grandmother, and I have no comment, but his actions were indeed a bit inappropriate."
Dylan agreed, "I also think what he did was wrong. If it were me, I wouldn't let my family force me to do anything."
Taya smiled, "Then why didn't you mate the person you wanted to mate?"
She had heard from Edith that Dylan's love interest was already mated, so he must have had a story of his own.
Dylan shrugged helplessly, "She didn't like me. I couldn't force her to mate me, could I?"
He was quite humorous, and Taya's eyes curved into an arc. "You are quite respectful of others."Dylan said, "I have no choice. My mother and father taught me not to take advantage of my power to seize things by force."
Hearing this, Taya thought the Lawrence pack was not bad, but even if she had a good impression, she wouldn't recognize them. Dylan understood her thoughts and didn't immediately force her, but instead advised her to rest well before leaving to make a phone call.
Taya thought Dylan respected her decision, but the next day at noon, she saw Dylan with the Lawrence pack's eldest and second young masters at the door.
The eldest, Owen, was well-dressed, with a sharp appearance and a strong aura, clearly exuding the demeanor of a corporate president.
The second young master, Eugene...
Taya was stunned. She had no concept of celebrities before, but upon seeing the Lawrence pack's second young master, she was instantly captivated, as if a breath of fresh air had brushed her face.
His outstanding features, perfect facial structure, and thick eyebrows also gave off a soft ripple, as if he was always smiling. When Eugene saw Taya staring at him in a daze, he raised his elegant hand and waved to her, "Hi, little cousin, I'm your cousin, Eugene."Taya snapped out of her daze and forced a stiff smile, "Hello."
Compared to Owen, Eugene was much more at ease. He naturally sat down at Taya's bedside and reached out to shake her hand.
Out of politeness, Taya shook his hand and remained silent.
Seeing her bewildered expression, Eugene found it cute, "The few girls adopted by my family are not as pretty as you."
He not only spoke well, but his voice was also full of magnetism.
No wonder Eugene was an international superstar, exuding charm that attracted the opposite sex in every move.
Fortunately, Taya had seen Griffon' appearance and was not dazzled, "You are quite handsome too."Eugene smiled faintly and turned to look at Owen, who was dressed in a suit and looked gloomy.
"Bro, did you hear that? My sister praised me for being good-looking."
Owen, who was usually not one to smile or speak much, responded with a calm expression, "You're here to discuss important matters, not to boast about yourself." After giving Owen a look, Eugene turned to Taya and said, "Taya, Dylan said that you don't want to go back to the Lawrence pack. Can you tell me why?"
Taya touched her belly and replied, "I have my own pup now and my own home. I don't want to go back to the Lawrence pack. As long as I have you all, I'm happy."
Eugene, with great gentleness, looked at Taya's belly and said, "Congratulations on your pregnancy. You're going to be a mother."
Taya, thinking about her pup, smiled faintly and said, "Thank you for your blessings."
Eugene, being perceptive, chatted with Taya about the pup for a while and used it as an opportunity to get closer to her. you need to go
back home. This way, your pup will know where they belong. Having the backing of a family like the Lawrences isn't just a game-changer for when they're adults. It makes a huge difference even in their growing years, giving them a real shot at building guts and confidence."
Confidence and bravery were exactly what Taya lacked when she grew up, which led to her being manipulated in her adult life.
Taya smiled at Eugene and the silent Owen and said, "I can provide a good environment for my pup now, so I don't need the support of the Lawrence pack."
Owen, rarely showing a smile, softened his approach towards Taya and said, "But as your older brothers, we hope you will come back home."
Looking into Owen's sincere eyes, Taya felt a bit conflicted. "I..."Owen continued, "Because of our elders, you and your mother have been away for so many years. We are sorry for that. Please give us a chance to make it up to you."
Eugene nodded in agreement, "My brother is right. Even if you don't live at the Lawrence pack often in the future, you should bring your mother and sister's ashes back to the Lawrence pack."
Taya firmly refused, "My mother's ashes can be moved from the Clark pack to the Lawrence pack, but my sister's cannot. She and her mated-wolf were very much in love and must be buried together."
The three brothers looked at each other and Dylan finally nodded, "Then we won't move your sister's ashes. We'll just include her name in the family tree and restore her identity."
Taya didn't say anything, and Eugene smiled at her, "Taya, your mother will return to the Lawrence pack, and your sister will regain her place in the Lawrence pack. You are no exception."
Before Taya could respond, Dylan added, "Now, you are the only living relative of our aunt. So, you have to take her ashes yourself. Come back with us.
After Dylan spoke, Owen added, "Our grandfather truly didn't know that Sophia had sent your mother away, otherwise he wouldn't have let you both suffer outside for so long. If you are deeply upset about this, I will have him come and apologize to you personally. How about that?"
Faced with her three cousins, Taya felt a headache coming on.
"Give me some time to think about it. Also, I will need to wait until after I give birth to take any action regarding taking my mom's ashes elsewhere. My current situation makes it inconvenient for me to go to the gravesite.
Owen understood, "In that case, I'll leave our contact. information with you. If you've made up your mind, give us a call."Taya replied, "Okay," and the three brothers then bid farewell.
However, as soon as they walked out the door, they bumped into Harper and Preston.
When Harper saw Owen, her eyes lit up. When she saw Dylan, they lit up even more. And when she saw Eugene, her eyes widened iexcitement.
"Are you... the lead actor from Lala Land?" Eugene, still maintaining his composure, put on a smile as he stepped outside.
"That's right, it's me."
"Ah!" Harper screamed and, with excitement, rushed over to grab Eugene's arm.
Preston glared at Eugene. Harper didn't notice it and continued. to express her admiration for her idol.
"I love watching your movies, you're such a great actor, I really really like you!"
Facing his fan, Eugene's smile grew even wider. "Am I only at good actor? Am I not handsome?"
"You're handsome! There's no male actor in the world more handsome than you!"
Eugene was very satisfied and took out a pen from his suit pocket, giving Harper a flirtatious look. "Do you want to exchange contact information?" Before Harper could respond, Preston stepped forward and, with his tall stature, stood between them. "Do you want me to give you my contact information?"
Faced with Preston's anger, Eugene seemed much more composed. "If you want to, you can. I also like hanging out with
