The death of the traitors didn’t cause a lot of trouble or noise. On this evening, people feared Venus more than betraying their pack.

Venus showed them sides of her that they didn’t think she possess and Dracon was over the moon seeing this.

On this night, Venus played with Dracon for hours before going to bed. As she was pregnant, Livius was forced to not do any sexual or intimate acts with Venus which was quite a bore for the two of them.

There was no funeral for the deceased this time and the people that suffered were the ones that were living with the traitors. Venus had to go and talk to them.

As someone who once lost everything, she did her best to talk to them and hope that they won’t be foolish enough to follow in the footsteps of the ones they lost.

As days were passing by quickly, Venus who had been preparing to go to the orphanage bought everything that she wanted and during these days, she also communicated with Dante making her husband jealous.

Finally, the day arrived of going to the orphanage and as the two knew the place, she didn’t have to wait for them to go together.

Venus arrived at the familiar orphanage and the first thing she saw was a fancy sports car and she knew that the rascal has arrived before her.

When she got out of the car, the first person she saw was Dante and the young man looked flashy and daunting as before.

Dante was actually two years younger than her and the young man was very talented academically despite his peacock looks. Dante came from a rich family and his wealth knows no bounds.

The two met when Venus was driving her taxi. She carried Dante who was arrogant on that night and she taught him a great lesson. This is how she was able to attract his attention.

She wasn’t interested in him as a lover or anything of that sort so when the young man confessed his love for her several times, she rejected the other ruthlessly.

Dante was quite shameless and he never gave up, in the end, she took him as a brother and kept in touch. As Dante was overseas doing his Master’s in Business Administration, they haven’t been in touch much.

Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

But thinking about the things that have been happening to her and the pack, she couldn’t help but think of him. She just didn’t expect the young man to come back making things much easier for her this time.

Dante without standing on ceremony simply enveloped Venus in a warm hug and she didn’t evade as she truly didn’t see Dante as a man but this wasn’t the same for those watching on the sidelines.

“I missed you!” like a crybaby, Dante coyly said earning him a flick on the forehead from Venus.

“Can’t you speak nicely?” Venus chided the other making him smile sheepishly at her.

“You make me turn into someone that I can’t recognize!” Dante was quite thick-skinned too.

Venus simply burst into laughter and let Dante entertain her for a while. It didn’t take long before Kelley appeared and Venus still kept a bright smile on her face.

“I am sorry I am late,” Kelley shyly apologized as she looked at the two people that were so close, that she wanted to tear them apart.

“I just arrived, don’t stress about it. Meet Dante, my little brother, and Dante, this is Kelley a good and close friend of mine,” Venus introduced the two to each other with a smile on her face.

Dante being a gentleman greeted the lady with a smile on his face and began to chat her up like a flirt. It was quite hilarious actually but this also served a purpose so Venus allowed them to go crazy.

Venus and the others delivered the food and clothes she brought. Venus played with the kids and had a great time with everyone. She stayed at the orphanage for three hours before leaving.

She used the time she has remaining left to talk to Kelley as Dante had left some urgent things.

With Kelley alone, Venus didn’t even expose herself at all. her suspicions were confirmed but she wanted to find out more about Kelley.

“What’s going on with you?” Kelley asked seeing how Venus was quiet without saying anything.

Venus chuckled softly being caught like that, “it’s nothing, I am just thinking of a problem back home but it’s nothing.”

Kelley’s interest was piqued at this point so she asked with interest in her tone, “what problem can it be? Since we are friends, we can talk and see if we can solve it.”

If it was before, she would have believed this B.S but now, umphh, she wasn’t the only one who can play this game.

With a sorrowful gaze on her face, she sighed as she looked at Kelley with a face that can draw sympathy from others, “there have been a lot of rats in our house lately and no matter how much my husband tries to catch them, he can’t find them all. you know how rats are deadly to any family?”

of course, they are all adults so there was no need to even guess what Venus was talking about at this juncture.

“This is quite tough. Have you tried luring them out?”

“We tried but we still can’t lure them out. I don’t even know how many rats are in the house and it just pisses me off!”

Kelley tried her best to remain calm and asked, “so have you dealt with the rats you found yet?”

“How can we? We are civilized people, so we have them locked up hoping that we will catch more of them.”

“It will be better if you let them go. They may lead you to the others,” Kelley suggested as she looked at Venus.

Venus’s eyes light up when she heard this, “that also works. Thanks, dear.”

Kelley flashed a smile at Venus with a shy expression on her face, “I didn’t help much.”
