"Damon, Aren't you are behaving like a kid," Mr. Dalton said as he was also looking at Krystal from the same window as him
"No, I am not, just because She saved my kid once I am letting her go today without actually doing anything to her"
"But can't you see she doesn't wanna go now. I mean you brought her here, then you should be responsible for her too, and don't you love her I thought you do "
"Mr. Dalton, Even I thought I loved her but last night when she injured me my instinct immediately wanted to rip her apart and that's when I got to know that she was becoming an obsession and not love because there is no way you will ever think of hurting your love"
"Whatsoever, but at least I think it's your time to change your warriors, How can A female Rogue take them down? It's shameful"
"You think I built this Empire with a loser? no! Krystal is indeed fabulous, but my Warriors are not doing anything to her or they are not using their full strength because they are afraid that I still might have something for her and if they do anything to her it might be their end, Moreover, I am 100% sure that Sid asked them to behave"
As they were having a conversation Moon came inside that room and stand behind them while saying… "I like her"
*Damon turns to her* "You do?"
*Moon nodded* "Yes, and Damon, She is doubtless special, I just came to warn you that grasp her before her Mate could find her. She is Rogue but not Mateless"

(Later that evening)
As Damon didn't let her inside the palace so Krystal sat in front of the palace's entrance while waiting for him to open the door for her but Krystal was not lonely here the warrior wolf whom she tackled before crossing the main gate was there with her even though Royal family didn't ask them to do that, they still did because they kinda pitied her.
On the other side, throughout the day Damon was glimpsing at least once in 30minutes outside from his window to take a look at Krystal's situation, and this time too he was looking at her…
(Damon's Pov)
What does this girl want? Why she is not going yet when I am letting her go? Does she want me to drop her at the exact place I picked her?
•••••
"Dad?" Asher entered the room and tucked on Damon's shirt
"Uhmm?"
"Should I…should I give Krystal a jacket or some blanket?"
"You don't call her Mom anymore?" Damon asked picking him up
*Asher shakes his head* "No because you don't like it and aunt Moon already explained to me that I don't have mom and Mom doesn't always mean beautiful lady"
"Is that so?"
*Asher nodded* "Dad, What does Mom mean, Do I really don't have one? I want to know Dad?"
*Damon took a deep breath and started to explain* "MOM… I didn't actually have anyone to call mum, So…. but I had a big brother who took care of me, who loved me, Protected Me, and everyone used to say he takes care of me like he is my Mom"
"But Dad, to become a Mom, one should have to be a girl?" Asher questioned
"Says who? For me, he was like my Mom, He was my everything, He…He… Asher, Mom means a person who makes you feel like home even though if you have none... who protects you from every enemy of the world"
"Uhm! Got it...Dad, Look snow," Asher said pointing out of the window
He glances a little and then rushed toward the wardrobe, where he took out one jacket and blankets mainly for Krystal but when he looked out of the windows again he saw those warriors covering her up with their coats and even lighting bonfires near her to keep her warm.
After seeing how everyone there is caring for her, he felt disheartened because somewhere he still wants to be the only guy who will assist Krystal however he is late this time, and due to this his mood became gloomy.
"Dad, Why did you stop? Are you okay?" Asher said while getting down from his lap and taking those things from his hand.
"No, I am not" Damon mumbled and went to bed

(Meanwhile)
(In Underworld)
Vampire King quietly entered the castle without being too obvious of his presence to others. He slowly started waddling upstairs toward his room through the dark living room but suddenly everything lit up and Lucas was already sitting in the living room on the sofa while waiting for his dad…
Vampire king stopped in his place halfway through the stairs and turns to him while asking… "Why did you come back soon?
Lucas ignored what his Dad said and walked toward him while asking… " "Why… Do you have Luna's smell all over you?"
"What are you talking about? There is nothing" Vampire king defended himself but Lucas was so tired of his Dad's lies
"Dad, *sighed* Why you are like this? Were you so eager to have… *paused*
"Lucas, mind your language. I am your Dad"
"Dad? Just giving birth and Feeding your child doesn't make you Dad. You disappear every night and come back with new female pheromones all over your body but this time you went overboard you were having s*x with Damon's Luna?"
"L-U-C-A-S" *Vampire king Slapped him hard for his word that he stumbles two steps down* "Stop guessing anything randomly. What do you even know about me? About my past?"
"I don't want to know anything of that now. Dad, from now onwards I don't care what you do and where you go but just remember one thing if any of your behavior creates distances between me and Moon, I will f*cking destroy your empire" Lucas roared at him and then walks away.
The Vampire king sat on the stairs while holding his head from both hands as he started getting a glimpse of his past scenario, Where a royal lady from the human world wearing a bright white gown standing on the battlefield while holding a newborn baby and smiling proudly more like creepily while looking straight at the Man appears like Vampire King(Lucas's Dad) who was soaked in the blood while standing on the pile of hundreds of dead body with a big sword.

(Past midnight at Werewolf land)
After everyone went to sleep, Max came out of the palace quietly where Krystal was still waiting for Damon or for someone who will open the door for her.
He walks towards her and sat in front of her while holding her hand gently, Krystal got confused by his action that she tried to brush him off but when they both made eye contact, she quickly holds his face with both hands and whispered
"White Eyes… Same… Real?"
*Max nodded* "Yes, It's real wolfy Only we two are alive I guess"
"Wolfy?… Wolfy Who?" Krystal asked confusingly when Max called her by that nickname
In return, Max just smiled and started rolling up her sleeves till he saw a burn mark on her arm where everyone have a pack mark, as soon as he saw that Max started sobbing hardly. He leans his head on her lap while hugging her waist.
Krystal became more confused with this behavior however this time she didn't push him instead just like a mother figure she started patting his back.
However, before they could have any more conversation, Sid appeared in front of them, He pulled Max away from Krystal and started dragging him back inside...
"Sid, What the hell are you doing? Leave me" Max yelled although Sid didn't let his grip loosen at all,
He hurriedly went inside his room and then slam Max on the floor... "Are you nuts? What the Hell you were doing near Krystal?"
"Why should I tell? And don't ever do this kind of thing Don't ever use your force on me" Max said standing up from the floor
*Sid holds Max's shoulder with both hands* "Okay Fine, but don't go near Krystal ever"
*tsk* "Again? Why should I even listen to you?"
"Because I am your Fu*king Mate Idi0t *Sid shouted* "You are finally free after ages then why you are so eager to go back in that rotten cell, have you yet realized that Alpha was giving murderous look to you when you hugged Krystal"
"What he was there?" Max asked with a surprised expression because he clearly saw everyone asleep, then how...
"You are asking he was there? Dumbo! Alpha didn't let his eyes off from Krystal the whole night"
*Max put his hand on the chest* "Why do I feel like I was near to death?"
"Because you were" Sid replied
