Chapter 174: I Don’t Have Luna Yet

Benjamin’s POV:

Lately, I found myself drawn to Hayley more and more. My wolf, Lawrence, could sense her scent more clearly as well. Watching her act so shy, I couldn’t resist asking, “Hayley, why do you feel the need to take care of my business?”

My question surprised her. She fell silent for a while before reluctantly answering, “It’s nothing.”

I smiled at her and said, “There’s still a lot to handle with the Midnight Pack. I have to deal with the group’s matters. Tyrone will take you back.”

But Hayley disagreed. “Benjamin, your leg is injured. Don’t you think you should rest?”

I raised an eyebrow and responded, “As an Alpha without a Luna, who’s going to manage the Midnight Pack and the Southwell Group, and make sure everything runs smoothly if I don’t work? Will you do it for me?”

Even I was surprised by my words after I said them. “I…,” Hayley stammered, unable to finish her sentence.

Just then, Tyrone chimed in. “Alpha, I think you should listen to Ms. Carson. She’s a major shareholder in the Southwell Group. Based on her past abilities, she could handle the company in your absence.”

Hayley seemed upset by Tyrone’s suggestion. “Tyrone, don’t talk nonsense!”

“Well, what Tyrone said does make sense,” I added. Hayley was talented, there was no doubt about that. But my Luna had to be my destined mate, at least a Beta. I wasn’t feeling strongly enough about Hayley to make impulsive decisions.

“I don’t care anymore. You handle it,” Hayley said, shooting me a glance before walking off.

As I watched her leave, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of affection. She was becoming more and more endearing.

“Tyrone, are there any urgent matters with the pack or the company?” I asked.

Tyrone shook his head. “Alpha, don’t worry. Just go rest. We’ve got things under control with both the pack and the company.”

“In that case, I’ll head back first. Keep an eye on things with the company, and make sure the pack is managed well.”

I patted Tyrone’s shoulder. Feeling good, I handed my body over to Lawrence and quickly went after Hayley.

“Benjamin, what are you doing? Get out!” Hayley pouted in annoyance, but she looked so cute.

I turned to face her and explained seriously, “I’m also going home. It’s on the way.”

“You—” Hayley started to protest, but I scooted over to make space for her.

She gave me a small huff, then said nothing and sat down. The driver then started the taxi and slowly drove away.

As we rode, music played on the radio. It was a new hit song by Christopher, one that had been trending all over the internet recently. His voice was deep, smooth, and magnetic. The lyrics were calming, making the song pleasant to listen to.

I found myself completely caught up in the music. But then, something hit me. The melody and style of the song reminded me a lot of Harmony’s music.
