Saved his life...
Lilac was not sure how she could his life and in what way. How could six years old her managed to save his life?
“What do you mean with that? I am sure, I am not very courageous to save someone life when I was very young.” Lilac narrowed
her eyes and Hunter took her hand, this time, she didn’t protest, neither she pulled away from him. “What did I do? Did I jump
between you and a monster to save your life?”
Hunter laughed when he heard that and teased her. “You are not that bold, Lilac. You would have been the first person, who
would run away if you were in that situation.”
Lilac pursed her l*ps when she heard that. “Thank you, for being very honest.” She followed him out of the pack house, as they
walked in the garden again. “Then, what did I do that could make you smitten like this?” She raised her brows, prompted him to
answer her question.
“For the record, I am not smitten, I just keep my promise to make you my woman, that’s it.” Hunter shrugged his shoulders, but it
was clear that he was teasing her again.
Lilac took a deep breath. “I feel like I have been running for miles, whenever I am talking with you. Fine. I don’t need the answer.
Lilac was very upset, she couldn’t imagine how could this man managed to put her on the edge of her patient. She determined
not to speak to him again for her own sanity, more so, there were a lot of things to think about after what he revealed to her
about her parents, or her father to be precise.

Hunter to lie to her, unless he wanted to make a joke out of it. Yet, he wouldn’t be creating a story that far, right?
Both of them walked in silence for a while, though Lilac was annoyed with Hunter, but other people, who saw them didn’t think
that way. It looked like they were in a good term, as they walked quietly.
Little did they know someone had been watching them from the window of her bedroom, her eyes filled with rage.
was poisoned when I was eleven,” Hunter said. His tone changed, indicating he

was having a serious conversation with Lilac right now. “Fourteen years ago, the pack has a dispute with Red Moon pack. And
because I am the only child and the heir for the alpha, they aimed to kill me.”
Lilac turned her head, she blinked her eyes, this man always surprised her. When she thought he wouldn’t say anything about
what happened in the past, he started to tell the story.
“I was playing near the forest when someone dragged me to the side and poisoned me. The poison was not fatal, but it left me
paralyzed.” Hunter smiled at Lilac, which made her frowned, not understand his smile. “The thing is, they wanted to make it look
like it was an accident.”
“I don’t get it.” Lilac said in small voice, forgetting her determination not to ask anything to him again. “How can save your life?
Did I fight those people? Cured you?” The latter didn’t make sense because she was not a healer and she knew nothing about
herbs and anything alike.
“They drawn me in the river near the waterfall, Lilac, they left me to die,” Hunter said it lightly, as if that happened to someone
else and not him. “So, it will look like an accident.”
they do that to a child?”
Hunter smiled at her, he liked the look of worry in her eyes. Those eyes, those gentle eyes had never changed, even after years
had passed, she was always that sweet little girl that had saved his life.
“But, you saved me Lilac and I can live to this day is thank to you.”
“I did?”
“You did, little one.” Hunter stretched out his hand and tucked strand of her hair behind her ear, she looked adorable to stare at
him with her eyes wide opened. “You pulled me from the water, you saw what happened to me from your hiding spot and wait
until they left before you saved me.” Hunter smiled and it looked very genuine. “You are very smart.”
“How?” Lilac seemed to get the idea of what she might do to help him, but she wanted to know the detail of it.
“Normally, you will go to the pack house and ask for someone to come and help, but if you did that, I would have longed dead,
because there is no way I will be able to hold my breath for that long.” Hunter stopped walking and without Lilac

realized it, they went back to the waterfall. “You know that, even though you were only six years old, you know how critical time
was for me. So, instead of going to the pack house, you tried to drag me out of the water.”
“Really? I am that smart?”
Hunter chuckled when he heard that, especially with the way she said it, as if she didn’t believe it was her. “Yes, you are smart
Lilac. You said it yourself that you absorbed all the tutelage that luna Jasmine taught you in a year. No wonder, she is very upset
of losing you as her son’s mate.” But, for Hunter, he was very grateful for what Aiden had done.
If there was one thing that Hunter wanted to thank him, it must be for how he had pushed Lilac to reject him.
