Stefan stared deeply at the report Esben had made. In the report, his gamma pack could only report that the prison where Stefan had met Ullric had been burned to ashes by someone. But who burned it or whether the witch who owned the place knew the truth or not, they couldn't be sure to that extent. In accordance with their agreement, Stefan had begun searching for information about the wizard Ullric was referring to after he accepted Ullric as part of his pack. Although they hadn't gotten any valuable information, for now, Stefan was confident that it would only be a matter of time before they could track down the witch's whereabouts. Besides relying on his connections with other packs, Stefan was also quite well-known among the humans. He had enlisted the help of private detectives to track down the witch and spent a considerable amount of money just to find her faster. From now on, Stefan must always be prepared to go to war with the witch and her hunters. They obviously couldn't

Following Lulla's instructions, Ullric first cleaned himself and then changed his clothes before he went down to meet Lulla. Following his instincts, Ullric wanted to look more handsome for Lulla this time. The man gazed at his wardrobe which contained many strange clothes before he went back to choose the clothes that were closest to his old clothes. A black shirt and material pants of the same color were his choices this time. The clothes made his muscles clearly defined. His brown hair that fell to his waist was tied back using the rope in his room, while his sharp eyes were slightly covered by his bangs that were already too long. Although half of Ullric's face was covered by his hair, anyone who saw Ullric would know that there was a handsome face behind that hair. His well-defined jaw had an appeal of its own. While his towering height would definitely make him stand out among other humans. After Ullric had finished preparing, the man immediately went down to meet Lulla. For

"Alright ... Now, what kind of haircut do you want?" When Witton returned, he immediately asked while estimating the cut he should do. Hearing the question, Ullric looked up to stare at Lulla, who was standing next to him. Since Lulla no longer forbade him to touch the girl, Ullric no longer refrained from touching Lulla's hand. Ullric's actions made Lulla realize that the man wanted to talk to her, so she immediately lowered her head to look at Ullric. "I want you to choose a suitable haircut for me." As Lulla's mate, Ullric only wanted to look handsome in front of the girl. Ullric wanted Lulla to choose a suitable cut for him so that Lulla would no longer look at other men in the future. "Are you sure?" asked Lulla for reassurance. The girl was only willing to think when Ullric nodded confidently at her. Lulla stared at Ullric for a long time before she got a good idea of a suitable cut for Ullric. "How about an undercut? Witt, do you have an example of an undercut? I want to s

Due to Ullric's order for the car to proceed carefully, the journey that should have taken only thirty minutes almost doubled. The car stopped right in front of their residence. Ullric carefully lifted Lulla before carrying her in his princess sling. Perhaps because Lulla was so exhausted, the girl did not wake up at all during the process. What's more, Lulla even unconsciously pressed her cheek against Ullric's chest, perhaps assuming that it was her brother who was carrying her as usual. The sweet gesture did not escape the eyes of Ullric, who held Lulla with a straight face. It was only when the man saw her little action that he finally produced a small smile. Ullric safely carried Lulla to her room, then laid the girl on her large bed.e Painstakingly, Ullric took off the shoes Lulla was wearing and stored them on the girl's shoe rack. Ullric only did the bare minimum to make Lulla comfortable in her sleep without the slightest intention of harassing the girl. After everything

When Lulla woke up the next day, the girl felt dazed as she looked around her. Lulla only remembered that she was on her way home with Ullric when a heavy sleepiness suddenly struck her. Looking at her state now, it seemed that Ullric had brought her back, and she continued to fall asleep after that. However, Lulla was a little incredulous when she saw that she had missed a meal by continuing to sleep all day yesterday. When Lulla's gaze dropped, the girl could see that the man she had been with all day yesterday was sleeping in an uncomfortable position. The man was sitting on the cold floor, with his fingers lightly touching Lulla's hand. From his position, it seemed Ullric did not want to be separated from her. Yet, at the same time, the man was trying to put some distance between them. Ullric seemed to be trying not to look too clingy, even though Lulla had no longer forbidden the man to approach her. When Lulla saw Ullric's peaceful face while sleeping, the girl involuntarily s
