Chapter 4 Lyly

Fact, even though she and Jackson had been engaged for many years, they had never shared the same bed or been this close.

"Get off me." Daenerys snapped back to reality, clenched her fists, and tried to push him away.

Her eyes quickly darted away, unable to meet his gaze directly.

This situation...! It's too strange...!

But how could her strength compare to this man's?

Not only did he not move away, but he also leaned in closer, pressing even tighter.

She could even feel the pounding of his heartbeat, and under her hand...!

It was his firm chest...!

Daenerys's body went stiff, and she was so tense that her nails dug into her own skin.

Then, she heard his deep voice whisper near her ear, "Daenerys, don't challenge me without knowing your limits. Otherwise...! I fear you won't be able to handle the consequences."

His voice was soft, almost gentle, and to an outsider, it wouldn't seem like he was upset at all.

But at that moment, to Daenerys, it felt like ice down her spine, and her palms broke out in a cold sweat.

What would happen if she angered him? What kind of consequences?

Looking into his dark, mischievous eyes, her breath quickened, and in fear, she closed her eyes, suddenly afraid to even imagine.

Her lips quivered as if she wanted to retort or stand up to him.

But she was too scared, her throat dry, unable to speak a word.

Austin coldly stared into her eyes, then finally stood up straight.

His tall figure straightened, and he calmly adjusted his slightly disheveled shirt, speaking in a meaningful tone, "If you're curious, you can try it."

Without waiting for Daenerys's reaction, Austin walked out.

The atmosphere in the room instantly returned to normal.

The remaining people all breathed a sigh of relief in unison.

It took Daenerys a long time to recover from the fear.

She stood up and hastily smoothed her hair, still unwilling to contemplate what Austin's words meant.

Consequences? What could he do to her? Cook her or chop her up and fry her?

"Impressive, I didn't expect someone so young to have such courage!" Jacky stepped forward, patting her on the shoulder, his voice full of admiration.

Daenerys didn't understand at all.

David also gave her a thumbs up in praise.

Daniel grinned, "Finally, someone has the guts to talk back to Alpha Austin. Keep it up! It was so satisfying to watch!"

"...!" Daenerys said nothing.

Keep it up? No way!

It might be satisfying for them, but she had no idea how to deal with Austin!

In the end, Daenerys lowered her head in embarrassment and left the "Mugari" club.

She had come to talk to him about changing her university application, but it had ended in a huge argument, leaving her feeling frustrated.

Lyly Anderson called to ask how it went.

She lowered her head, "I couldn't change it."

"No way, is your Alpha Austin really that hard to talk to?"

"Yeah." Daenerys nodded glumly.

Lyly said, "Don't be too upset. There's still plenty of time before the application deadline. Maybe you should stick close to your Alpha Austin, try to win him over, and he might change his mind."

Win over Austin?

Daenerys felt a headache coming on.

"You don't know who my Alpha Austin is. Even trying to win him over takes a lot of courage."

"Oh, is he really as terrifying as you say? No matter what, he's just a person."

Daenerys remembered the way he had just threatened her and snorted, "A person? He's practically a grim reaper."

"If he's a grim reaper, then tell me, after you graduate high school, will you still move out to live with me like you said?"

Daenerys kicked a stone on the road, saying angrily, "I don't know." Moving out might anger Alpha Austin. But if she didn't move out, living under the same roof with him would be unbearable.

It was like living one day that felt like a year.

Moreover, now that he had shattered her dream, who knew how else he might control her in the future.

"You're really so timid, always listening to your Alpha Austin. He's not even your father. Even my own father encourages me to live independently!"

Daenerys sighed.

She looked up at the boundless night sky, thinking of her dream, and felt even more distressed.

If her parents were still alive, they would have supported her dream unconditionally...!

Not like now, where she had worked hard for three years, only for someone to dismiss it without any respect at all...!

Thinking this, her eyes stung with unshed tears.

After hanging up the phone, she muttered in frustration, "Austin, you're an arrogant jerk! A hateful demon! How did I not realize before how detestable, domineering, and unreasonable you are!"

Meanwhile.

Inside the Bentley.

Austin was sitting in the back seat when he suddenly sneezed.

Ricard, who was driving, noticed and asked, "Alpha Austin, Daenerys is just ahead. Would you like to give her a ride home?"

Austin glanced out the window, his eyes catching sight of her.

The warm yellow streetlights illuminated her small figure.

Maybe because it was late at night, her silhouette seemed even smaller and lonelier.

Her head was lowered, filled with sorrow.

Was she still upset about not being able to attend Midorri University and not being able to stay close to Jackson?

Austin's eyes grew darker.

"No need."

His voice was cold.

He shifted his gaze away, no longer looking at her.

10 PM.

At the villa.

Austin checked the time again. That little girl still hadn't come home.

When he saw her on the street earlier, it was just past 8 PM. No matter how she chose to get home, even if she walked, she should have been back by now!

"Sir, Daenerys still isn't answering her phone." The housekeeper, Sandra, said anxiously.

Austin sat on the sofa, unmoving, coldly saying only two words: "Keep calling."

"Yes, sir."

Sandra had no choice but to continue trying to reach Daenerys, but no one picked up on the other end.

Midnight.

Austin had lost all patience, his face dark as he sat on the sofa, instructing Ricard to go out and find her.

Well!

That girl dared to ignore his words and not return to the Black Wolf pack tonight! Clearly, he had been too lenient with her before!

"Sir! Sir! A call!"

Suddenly, Sandra called out loudly.

Austin's expression changed as he stood up, "Is it Daenerys?"

"Yes...! It's a call from the police station. They said it's related to Daenerys."

The police station?

Where was Daenerys now?

At the police station.

Beside her friend Lyly.

After hanging up with Lyly earlier, Daenerys felt reluctant to go home just yet.

So she called Lyly back, planning to use the weekend to take a trip to Midorri University to find Jackson.

First, to avoid the arrogant and self-righteous Austin, and second, she hoped Jackson could help convince Austin to change her application.

But unexpectedly, before they could even board the train, they ran into trouble.

"Two young girls, instead of studying, you're out here getting into fights. And you're students too-what a disgrace to the word 'student'!" The two of them sat with their heads bowed in the corner as the police officer lectured them sternly.

"Officer, I've already explained that it was a misunderstanding," Lyly said impatiently.

Yes, she had thrown a punch because her wallet had been stolen, but she had mistakenly targeted the wrong person.

She's a Beta, and also holds a black belt in Taekwondo, so when she struck, she might have hit a bit too hard-knocking the person out cold.
