Anthony's POV:
Before the elders’ meeting, Jennifer and I had lunch together.While we were waiting for the dishes to be served, Jennifer gave Skylar a call.
As the two of them chatted, Jennifer's lips curved up into a content smile.
By the time she hung up the phone, she was in a much better mood.
"Anthony, you must tell the elders to cover up the news of what happened at the banquet hall.We absolutely can't let that information be spread to the Rainbow Pack.Jerome and Skylar are going to get married soon.If the werewolves of the Rainbow Pack find out that she might have the vampire blood, they will definitely go against her," Jennifer said seriously, staring at me.
"Don't worry.I will make it clear at the elders’ meeting," I replied gently.
Of course I hadn't forgotten about this.
"Your brother will definitely become the Alpha, and Skylar will be his Luna." Jennifer nodded, looking visibly relieved.
Soon after, lunch was served, and we both dug in.
Once we were done eating, I had to attend the elders’ meeting.
Just before the meeting, I took the magic pain-suppressing medicine that Roy had given me before for the Love Curse.
Watching me take the medicine, Jennifer frowned.
"Anthony, are you having a heartache again? Should I call the doctor?"
After saying that, she patted her forehead remorsefully.
"Sorry.I forgot that even a doctor can't help."
"Don't worry, Jennifer.I don't have a heartache right now.I'm just taking some medicine beforehand so that nothing goes wrong during the meeting,"
I told her gently, holding her hand to comfort her.I knew that Jennifer worried about me a lot.
"But Anthony, you just took the medicine yesterday.Roy clearly said that you shouldn't take too much of it.Otherwise, there will be side effects!" Jennifer said anxiously, grabbing my hand.
"It's all my fault.If I wasn't here with you, you wouldn't suffer from heartache."
A lump rose in my throat.I couldn't bear seeing my mate blame herself like this.
"Don't say that, Jennifer.None of this is your fault.It was not you who cursed me," I pointed out, looking into her eyes.
"Don't worry.We'll find a solution soon."
I comforted Jennifer for a while before taking her to the elders' meeting with me.I also sent someone to inform my mother about it beforehand.
The elders' meeting was held in the large and spacious meeting room, which had a round table in the center.
