“Lexus, don’t you ever dare agree to their decision; I am telling you now, you will not see me again!” Daffodil was in anger as she looked at Lexus with a fierce expression.
“No, Sweetheart, please don’t say that. I am just contemplating on what to do now,” Lexus hugged Daffodil behind her back, trying to pacify her.
Daffodil did not reply. She kept her silence and Lexus truly got worried.
“I promised you, Sweetheart, they cannot take you away from me. Do you believe me?” Lexus asked while tightening his hug on her.
Daffodil nodded as her hands touched and held Lexus’ hands on her tummy.
“We can escape from her, Lexus. I have not tried it yet, but maybe I can do the teleportation power, merely by using my mind. Was it not that you said I am the most powerful werewolf in the werewolves’ realm?” Daffodil suddenly thought that made Lexus’ body stiffen.
“Yes, you are the most powerful werewolf and I know it will be easy for you to do such a teleportation act. But, let us first solve this matter without running away from them. I wanted to settle them with them amicably; no one will be hurt, neither we are going to be considered like a wanted prisoner to them.” Lexus stated in a soft voice. He wanted Daffodil to listen to him first. Daffodil’s use of her powers would be their last recourse if there is no other possible way to solve this issue in a peaceful manner.
Daffodil turned around and faced Lexus. “I will agree to that Lexus, but if I can see that there is no sense to settle this issue with a better way, I will not think twice to use my power, to show them that they cannot force me into anything that I do not like. I am not only a Golden She-Wolf Lexus, but I am also an heiress to a multi-billion dollar company!” her voice is now full of strength. She is not the Daffodil who melt on Lexus’ arms, but the Daffodil Marby that she was once in Los Angeles, USA.
Lexus was stunned seeing the fierce in her mate’s face and upon hearing what she said. He felt little in her arms; who is he compared to a Daffodil Marby?
“Who am I compared to Daffodil Marby?” he asked suddenly and Daffodil was astonished.
Furrowing, she cupped Lexus’ face, “You don’t have to compare us, Lexus, because we are just one; our hearts are just one; they beat as one,” she said gently caressing his face now.

When Lexus left Daffodil’s room, they already had a good understanding. He walked, going out of the packhouse of the Mythical Silver Shadow Pack with more clarity in his thoughts and feelings.
While walking towards the parking lot of the packhouse, he bumped into Trixie.
“Hey, Lexus, goodness, I have not seen you for a couple of days already. Are you that busy?” she asked furrowing but with glitters of joy in her eyes.
Lexus nodded but he did not stop from walking. Trixie caught up with his strides. “Lexus, can we talk for a while?” she asked and grabbed Lexus' left arm.
Lexus who was surprised by Trixie’s action gave her a look with narrowed eyes. “What do you want Trixie?” he said and then he stopped walking. He faced her with an inquisitive look.
“You looked so haggard now and troubled. How can I help you, Lexus?” Trixie looked at him with sadness.
“Nothing, you cannot help me, Trixie.” Lexus shook his head after saying this and was about to walk again when Trixie grabbed her left arm.
“What if I can help you, Lexus? Don’t you want to trust me?” She insisted but Lexus just shooked his head again.
Trixie followed Lexus back with her eyes; sadness enveloped her. “But, I will help you, Lexus, even if it means, you will not be mine,” she murmured.
Lexus drove his motorbike and waved a hand to Trixie, who smiled and waved back at him.
When Lexus’ image could not be seen anymore, Trixie turned her back and walked to the packhouse. She walked roaming inside the packhouse, looking for Drew.
After a few minutes of searching, he finally saw him walking out of the guest room. She walked fast and called him. “Drew!”
Drew looked back and when he saw Trixie, he felt something inside him that he could not explain again.
Trixie suddenly felt the soothing scent again that lingers into her nostrils every time she sees Drew.
“Yes, Trixie. Come, join me at the dining area; let us have some snacks there,” he said out of nowhere, inviting her to eat. He was actually surprised after saying such an invitation to Trixie.
Trixie nodded and smiled.
They were walking side by side going to the dining area when Trixie suddenly asked, “Drew, when you saw the Golden She-wolf did your heartbeat so fast and then can you differentiate immediately her scent from the rest of the woman here?”
Drew, flipped his head and looked at Trixie with a furrowed forehead. “What do you mean?”
“Tell me, Drew, what were the signs that you saw or felt so that you can say that the Golden She-wolf is your mate?” Trixie asked again. She wanted to dig out because she knew that whatever she feels every time she is near Drew, is something peculiar to her until now.
