“Leave… The pack?” Roxanne muttered.
“Yes. It has happened before. If a pack member is dissatisfied with their roles, or even the Alpha…
They may choose to leave the pack. It happened a lot when Asher became Alpha, you know? A lot of
our pack members left and joined other packs.” Rita stated. This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
“W-Wow…” This shocked Roxanne. There was still a lot she didn’t know, after all.
"Well, what good did that do them? Asher became Wolf King not long after, so in the end, they still
fall under his jurisdiction." Rita chuckled.
“So, if Lenard or any Omega isn’t satisfied with how they are being treated, they can opt for
another position or leave the pack? But why don’t they do that?” Roxanne asked.
“Hmmn, If I were to guess, I'd say it is their love and consideration for the pack," Rita replied.
“Why would you say that? I don't get it," Roxanne responded.
“Think about it like this, if they don’t do it… Who will?” Rita asked.
This question hit Roxanne's heart. She had a point.
“If the Omega deserts his position, another person needs to fill that spot. If the Omega's position is
one like Lenard's, a hard job, they might not be willing to relinquish it to another since they realise how
difficult the position is. Besides, in most cases, there isn’t even an Omega to fill up the position. If they
desert their role, it would spell a great deal of imbalance within the Pack.”
“That’s true…” Roxanne commented
"So, a pack member who understands this, and loves his pack, wouldn't intentionally abandon their
role, no matter how difficult it is," Rita concluded.
"So, using this as a basis, it's safe to say that Lenard chose his position, realising how difficult it is
so that another wouldn't have to go through the same. He realised the difficulty of the role and put it
upon himself to do it… I’m amazed.” Roxanne said with honesty and sincerity.
The more she discovered about him, the more she respected him. Then she thought to his son,
Larry. Larry appeared to be a diligent person, but after their last conversation, she could sense a deep
dissatisfaction with the pack seeping within him. She wanted to ask Rita about it but decided against it.
She didn’t want to rouse any issues. Besides, they were nearly at Rita’s house, so she didn’t want
to prolong the conversation when they could have spent their time discussing a better subject.
“Oh my, look who’s here…” Rita smiled, looking at someone who stood at the entrance of her
home.
Before Roxanne even looked, she smelled it, the familiar scent of someone she knew and thought
about more frequently than she would like… The smell of olives and chestnut, with a hint of burnt
wood. This scent definitely belonged to none other than-
“Asher!”
Roxanne and Rita exclaimed the name in a combined fashion.
Suddenly, Roxanne could feel her heart racing and her body reacting in excitement. Merely looking
at him from a distance and taking in his scent, she wanted to draw nearer.
At this moment, Asher glanced over at them, and from his expression, Roxanne could tell he
meant business. As his eyes met hers, her heart beat even faster than before.
“What the hell is he doing here?!” Roxanne thought to herself cautiously.
Rita and Roxanne continued moving forward, and within moments they were already at Rita’s
home. With Asher only a step away from Roxanne, she could feel his scent, even more, it was
stronger, and merely breathing seemed to drive her crazy.
Asher made to speak, but before he could, Roxanne's voice interrupted him.
“W-Why are you here?” Roxanne asked, feeling entirely flustered, though she concealed it with a
harsh tone.
With the both of them directly face to face, and Rita as a spectator, an awkward silence took over.
“Yes…?!” Rita finally said, breaking the silence, also raising a brow at Asher to demand what he
was looking for in front of her house.
“Ehem… Well…” Asher cleared his throat.
He looked at her with sincerity, making Roxanne's heart flutter. Finally, he opened his mouth and
brought out the words.
“Roxanne… Can we talk?”
