The Lycan King's Fate Calling (Shawn Gibson and Sylvia) novel Chapter 895

Crystal's POV:

"Yes, madam. I'll arrange it right away." The subordinate acknowledged the order and was about to leave.

I was struck by a thought and stopped him. "My trip to the imperial capital needs to be kept a secret. Don't tell this to anyone, especially my kids."

Something seemed to dawn on the man and he displayed a surprised expression. "You aren't going to take the children to the imperial capital?" "Well, they are quite naughty at this age. I'm worried I won't be able to look after them if I get busy." My explanation was only partially true.

The subordinate nodded and left.

I returned to my room to pack my things. Every time the ceremony ended, the Alphas of all the packs would stay behind in the capital for a week to attend some meetings and banquets. I only needed to take some clothes and my daily toiletries.

The kids were fast asleep. I quietly packed my stuff and put my suitcase in the store room, afraid that they would discover I was leaving.

As these thoughts ran through my mind, I began worrying again. I couldn't come up with a plausible excuse to leave. My intuition told me that if my kids found out I was going to the imperial city, they would definitely ask to go with me, especially Beryl. She has always been so curious about the outside world.

Besides, I had never been away from them for such a long period since they were born.

The truth was, I didn't want to leave either.

I sighed and lay beside them, not sure if I should take them with me or not.

If I wanted to sneak away, it would be difficult to find a time they were not near me. Arron clung to me all the time. And now that the kids didn't have a nanny, they would definitely visit my office in the city hall frequently to see me.

It was only the next day that an idea struck me when I passed by a school.

After dinner, I was about to narrate stories to Beryl and Arron as usual.

Before that, I pretended to suddenly remember something. I took out a paper from my pocket that was covered in hand-painted cartoons and handed it to them. "The school has organized a camping activity for three days and two nights. Do you want to go? They are going to take you to see some monkeys and have a picnic."
