Chapter 188
Aria could see what Lilac was trying to do. She wanted to call for the guards out there. But, if she did
so, Aria wouldn’t have a chance to tell her about something important.
Yes, this room was guarded, but it didn’t mean she couldn’t find a way to enter this area. After all, she
was born here, this pack was her house and she had been roaming around the pack house for a few
years now.
Especially when Lilac was under luna Jasmine’s tutelage, Aria would often be in this pack house, of
course, she’ knew every corner of this place.
A few guards at the door wouldn’t be able to stop her from coming into this bedroom.
“If you wanted to call the guards, you can do it after you listened to me.” Aria pleaded with her. She
only wanted to redeem what she had done to her and this was her only way to do so. “Please, Lilac,
listen to me for this one time. This will save you.”
Lilac looked at her sharply. “I have listened to you twice and even gave you the second chance, but you
always let me down every time. What made you think that I will listen to you again right now?” Lilac
narrowed her eyes dangerously at Aria. Her disappointment on her resurfaced, along with her anger.
“You have nothing to lose if you listened to me first. This is about the baby in your womb. This is about
the safety of your baby.” Aria had thought carefully about what she was going to say and bring up her
baby would definitely put Lilac on attention and that was all she needed right now.
And Aria was right about that. Lilac was immediately on alert with the mention of her baby, she looked
at her closely, as she stood up from her bed. They were only three steps away from each other. “What
do you mean with my baby?”
Aria took a deep breath, she was relief that Lilac gave her a chance to speak.
“That woman,” Aria started immediately, she glanced at the door, afraid that the woman would come
inside. Thankfully, this room was spacious enough, thus the guards out there couldn’t smell her scent
from behind the door, but it worked the other way around too. “That woman, who always with you.”
“Raya?”
“Yes. Her.” Aria nodded. “She tried to poison you.”

Lilac stared at Aria. How she could believe her after what she had done to her and Aria knew that. She
was well
aware that it was not an easy task to convince Lilac that she was trying to help her, instead of harming
her.
“Lilac, you have to believe me. She put something inside the cookies that she made. I saw it with my
own eyes.”
“She made cookies, why do you think that she wouldn’t put anything inside?” Lilac growled dangerously
at Aria. Not only this woman was trying to slender Raya’s name, but she was also giving a ridiculous
accusation.
Who would believe such accusation? Lilac was livid, she really wanted to kick her out of this room.
“Lilac, I know how to make cookies too, do you think I didn’t know about what kind of ingredient that to
put inside?”
“It’s different.”

“Lilac, I know what I saw.”
“If this is a harmful ingredient, what do you think it is?” Lilac challenged her. She was still listening
because she was talking about the safety of her baby, but now she was on the verge of calling for the
guard.
“It’s a leave. It’s a black leave. I don’t know what is that, but I am sure, it’s not something common that
you put inside cookies.” Aria felt like crying when she tried to convince Lilac about this. “I have tried to
look for that black leave, but I don’t know what is that. That black leave is not something that you can
find in the Golden Claw pack.”
Lilac was still thinking of an ingredient that Raya could only find in their pack and it added to the taste
of the cookies, but she couldn’t shake this feeling.
Probably because she took extra precaution with her pregnancy, thus she became a little bit paranoid
about everything that she ate.
“Didn’t you feel anything strange recently after you ate that?” Aria was so desperate now. She came
here when
she saw Raya made those cookies again and she had that black leaf with her “che put the black leave
inside the
cookies secretly, Lilac. If that’s normal ingredient, why would she tried to hide it?”
Lilac didn’t answer that, but she went very silence. She stared at Aria, but she couldn’t tell whether she
was telling the truth or not, since she had lied to her a few times, it was hard to trust her again.
“I am pregnant, of course. I will feel strange.” Lilac looked stoic, as if she didn’t care about anything
else and this

frustrated Aria even more.
She tried to argue with her, but in the end, she stopped trying to convince Lilac.
“I know I have done you a grief mistake. I know what I have done must have made you lost all of your
trust in me. I can understand that. But, I will not harm your baby. I will never do that. I came here with
all the risk that I might face to warn you. If you want to believe me or not, it will be up to you.” Aria
looked sad. She stared at her stomach. “I only hope I can redeem all of my wrongdoings and see you
and the baby are healthy.”
After saying that, Aria didn’t wish to have any argumentation. She had done her part, trying to force
Lilac to believe what she said would only make her distrusted her more, so she stopped.
Let fate to guide her heart and help her see clearly.
After Aria left the room, Lilac stood there silently as she stared at the sky outside. It was already close
to afternoon. She wondered what Hunter was doing.
This matter before her eyes was too confusing and if Raya indeed had the intention to harm her, what
the reason of her doing so? She had never treated her badly, she was her close friend. She was closer
to her than the other two. She was the first person that she informed about her pregnancy.
Why would Raya wanted to harm her? That was all beyond her. Lilac felt her head hurt.
“Black leaf…” Lilac mumbled to herself.
And after a few more minutes contemplated about what she was going to do, she went to the door and
found Gavin and the other two warriors there. They greeted her politely.
“Hm…” Lilac looked hesitant when she was about to ask about this. “I want to ask something.”

“What is it, luna?” Gavin asked. All of them looked very serious, thinking this was a very important
matter because the luna looked very uncomfortable.
“Have you ever seen black leaf? Is there something like that near the pack?” she asked.
“You meant the lycan pack?” Gavin asked. He thought about it for a while.
“Oh, the Crow leaf!” One of the guards suddenly remembered about something.

“Crow leaf?” Lilac frowned, she had never heard anything about that kind of leaf before. “What is that?”
All of them recalled the same thing too. “Oh, right. Crow leaf has black leaf.”
“What is that?”
Gavin then explained to her that it was a plant that grew near the Gerrerear mountain, not many people
knew about this plant, because it didn’t bring any benefit.
“You can say this is rather poisonous leaf.”
Lilac’s heart lurched when she heard that. “What do you mean poisonous?”
“Well… I am not sure about that, but I heard it will weaken your body. It’s not really harmful that could
cause. your death, but it’s not a good thing to be consumed if you were in the mountain.”
“If you wanted to know more about it, you need to ask a healer.”
Lilac nodded. She didn’t really listen what they were saying, because she was deep in thought, as she
stared at the floor and Gavin noticed the trouble look on her expression.
“Is there something that bothering you, luna?” Gavin furrowed his brows.
At first, they didn’t really like this luna, since she was not a lycan, but as time went by, they rather liked
her and after spending time together quite often, they were also fond of her.
“I have a request, but I don’t want you to tell anyone about this.”
“What is it?”
Lilac didn’t know whether she could believe them or not, but she was willing to give it a shot. They
might betray her too.
After all, the people in her life tended to betray her at some point and if Raya was indeed tried to harm
her and the baby, she really didn’t know who else she could call as a friend.
The three warriors listened to Lilac’s request, they kept saying that it was impossible, but then
promised her to get what she wanted.

A few hours later, Raya returned with her cookies, but Lilac was sleeping and when she tried to wake
her up, she told her to put the cookies on the table and she would eat it later, since she was too tired
and sleepy.
However, after Raya left, a healer came to the room.
“I want you to check that.”
