Book To Read
5
Both father and daughter finished their dinner giggling and smiling. Calvin sent her with Nelina, her nanny so that she could change Roselet’s clothes, and then he read bedtime stories to her, but he fell asleep before her. She slowly woke up and saw Calvin sleeping.
‘Daddy might be feeling too tired tonight.’ She thought.
“Keanu, help your human body to settle in the bed properly.” She said to Calvin’s wolf, and soon, Calvin slept comfortably. After which, she placed the blanket on his body and lay beside him. “Good night, both of you!!” She mumbled, yawning.
‘Moon Goddess! Send Mommy for daddy, please.’ She prayed before sleeping.
Later at night, when Calvin woke up, he found himself sleeping comfortably and his love sleeping beside him.
He covered her with a blanket properly before sleeping again.

On the other side!!
Someone moved her fingers.
“Inform Doctor Liara that her patient is now out of the Coma!!”, A junior doctor said to Nurse, observing the hand movement of the lady who was in the coma.

The next morning!!
Calvin silently left Roselet’s room for morning training with the pack members without disturbing her sleep. When he returned after a few hours later, he asked about her studies with Nelina so that he would have an idea about homework and the things that were going on in her class.
“By the way, Calvin!! I hope you remember about my retirement.” Nelina reminded him, on which he groaned.
“You really have to leave?”
“Yes, son!! I worked with your family when Caroline was five or six years old, and now her daughter is around that age. Now, my husband doesn’t want me to work and rest from every work. And I won’t lie, even I want to spend the remaining time of my life with him now, only him.”
“Hmm. Even though I want to be selfish, I can’t. Anyway, now that you want to take retirement, then please find a nanny just like you in another term, PERFECT.” Calvin said, checking the refrigerator so that he would prepare breakfast for his love.
He checked the schedule and found that it was ‘Noodles’ in the breakfast.
“Last week, I cooked Soba Noodles, didn’t I?”
“Yes!!”
“Perfect then, I will prepare Egg Noodles today.” Calvin finalized and started preparing coffee for him.
“Why don’t you think of marrying someone? You’re already thirty-two now.” Nelina suggested. “I mean, getting a mommy for Rose is better than a nanny.”
“Do you think that I haven’t thought about it? Or Mom or Dad?” Calvin chuckled. “Women who are interested in me don’t want Rose, and those who are interested in Rose, like single mothers, Rose doesn’t want them.” He said, sipping his coffee.
“Rose wants someone who loves me and cares for me, which the ladies like single mothers or broken women don’t want to do because they don’t want to give a second chance to their life. So, topics end there.” Calvin said with a smile. “To be honest, Rose is the best thing that happened to me. I thought Moon Goddess punished me by sending her into my life but… but I was stupid to understand that she was a blessing then. Now I understand why dad loves his daughters more than his sons.”
“By the way, have you found anything about HER?” Nelina asked to know about the search operation that Calvin had started the night he had found Roselet.
“Nope. Nothing.” Calvin replied, shaking his head. “I have visited more than a hundred packs in the past five years but haven’t sensed the other scent that my daughter has. If I’m not wrong then, dad, Artemis, and Aunt Becca also didn’t find anyone that particular scent.”
“I think she died or something; otherwise, we would have found her in all these years.” He concluded.
“Or maybe, you should change the way of searching her, or maybe she is not a pack wolf?” Nelina suggested.
“I don’t think she is an urban wolf or Rouge because, as per my calculation, I met her during the mating ball, which is held twice a year for pack wolves in search of their mate,” Calvin mumbled.
“But there can be chances that she can be banished from the pack, which might have turned her rouge later, or she left the pack willing to stay in the human world as an urban wolf.”
“Oh no!!” Calvin groaned. “I didn’t think that way. And if what you are saying is right, then there is no way I can find her between humans of around 8 billion in the whole world and rouges… those wild, misbehaved animals hears no one and take orders from no one. On the top, their way of living….”
“We all know how they live, but at the same time, you know who can help you,” Nelina said and left from there to resume her other words.
“Lee?” Calvin mumbled and recalled his father’s order. ‘If anyone will keep contact with her, then I will break all my ties with that person.’
After finishing the coffee, Calvin left the kitchen to wake his love, who could stay awake like an owl but hates waking in the morning.

“Here, daddy!! I’m all done.” Roselet said, passing her plate to Calvin, leaving one-fourth plate of noodles to eat.
“I told you earlier that you won’t be eating this much,” Calvin told her, on which she pouted. He finished her leftovers, and since it was off for both of them, Calvin did his work on the other side of the table while Roselet was busy drawing.
“Need my help?” He asked between his work.
“No, daddy.” She replied. “This is the nth number of times you’re asking the same thing.”
“the nth number of times you’re asking the same thing.” he mimicked her words and returned back to his work.
