Returning Home After the Deadline

Alan moved swiftly with three beautiful women towards The Tranz kingdom.

They crossed the two huge mountains, it took them exactly two hours to cross them and reach the northern territory.

Alan stopped to take a look at the snowy mountains which were covered with pure white snow.

"phew… that was a long run" Hannah was tired from keeping up with Alan's speed, she took a look at the other women who travelled with her.

Isabelle gasped heavily, a weird expression appeared on Hannah's face when she saw Isabelle.

An expression which showcased confusion, curiousness and astonishment.

She was not able to phantom the unique or abnormal skill Isabelle had.

How in the world is she gasping with a face like that? That weird skill was Isabelle's cold stare.

She doesn't behave like a human, how cold one gasps with a cold stare.

Isabelle looked at Hannah instantly when she had an uncanny feeling of being watched.

Hannah whistled casually turning her head in the other direction.

"We are in The Tranz Kingdom" Isabelle spoke in an unwelcoming tone, she was not happy bringing along Hannah and Juna.

Isabelle was afraid of problems that will be caused if Hannah's and Juna's existence in the kingdom is somehow leaked to the people.

The second was Hannah and Juna being Alan's fiancées, for obscure reasons she felt anger whenever she thought about it.

"Darling…" Juna hopped on Alan's back and locked her arms around his neck "ummah... I can't wait to meet your parents" if Alan was north she was south. She clung on to Alan like a magnet.

"we will meet them soon" Alan flashed a smile.

Hump

Alan saw Hannah who was pouting. She was annoyed for some unknown reason.

He grabbed her waist and pulled her closer.

Kiss

"what are you doing?"

"kissing!"

"I know that… I mean why now… "

"you looked cute"

"Was I not cute before" she pouted again.

"You were always cute but right now you look even cuter"

Hannah's face bled with embarrassment.

Hannah spoke as she rubbed her fingers "Hmm… Alan, can I call you darling too?"

"Uhm" Alan nodded with a pleasant smile.

"Ummm… darrrllingg" she muttered with embarrassment.

Alan chuckled and said "let's go"

After a ten-minute run, they reached Isabelle's castle. Hannah and Juna covered their presence with a cloak.

Isabelle and Alan went directly to the teleportation chamber. He didn't spare anytime for Isabelle, he had to meet his mother as soon as possible.

Julian was worried sick when she couldn't find Isabelle, she kept crying for about ten minutes.

Isabelle explained to Julian about the demons, she fretted about Isabelle's injuries.

After half an hour she had finally calmed down after Alan assured her that Isabelle was fine.

Isabelle had ordered the maids to insert their mana into the teleportation circle which was drawn on the ground. It was similar to what Alan had in his mansion.

Hannah and Juna stood beside Alan holding his arms.

"I guess we will meet in the academy," Isabelle said in a neutral tone with a hint of a smile on her face.

"Academy?"

"yes, Julian will take care of all the work here when I join the academy" a pleasant smile appeared on Isabelle's face as she continued "I don't have any work, thanks to you"

she wanted to get stronger as fast as possible and that could be achieved with Alan's help. She doesn't care what they are taught at the academy. All she wanted to do was train with Alan.

As we mentioned earlier, all Isabelle did was fight and eat. She didn't like to give work to her brain. So she pushed all the technical work to Julian.

Which she gladly agreed to do, she wanted Isabelle to smile and enjoy her life after her parents passed away.

Julian didn't want to burden Isabelle with the paperwork and management stuff of her territory.

She loved to do the work for Isabelle, after all, she didn't have much work to do other than taking care of Isabelle.

Alan muttered with a gentle smile "yeah see you soon"

A smirk escaped his face as he spoke his final words before departure "I can't wait to introduce my fiancées to you"

Swiishh

Alan disappeared.

Isabelle stomped on the ground as her face darkened with anger.

Alan wanted to tease Isabelle before leaving. He knew Isabelle's brain does its job only when she is irritated or angry.

He wanted her to discover her feelings.

...…..

In the carter's mansion…

Sob sob

"calm down Catherine, he will be safe" William tried to calm her down.

She kept crying as if his words hadn't reached her ears.

Sigh

William sighed deeply.

"Honey, did you ask Isabelle about Alan" Catherine brooded over Alan for two whole days.

She has been worrying about him since he left, but when he hasn't returned on the day he was set to arrive.

She let her emotions overwhelm her. She hasn't eaten anything for the two whole days.

"I received a letter from the northern territory… Isabelle and Alan went missing after the beast wave" William said in a low tone.

He had kept this news from Catherine, he received a letter from Julian the very next day they went missing.

He knew they would be safe, wherever they were.

But, now that he is late to arrive Catherine's condition has become worse.

This was the same when Alan was in coma.

Twitch

William and Catherine's senses twitched.

"William…" Catherine looked with a serious face.

William nodded.

They walked towards the front gate as they felt mana fluctuations.

Anna followed behind them.

Swiiishh

"I am bac- "

Slap

Catherine frowned at Alan, he eyes clogged with tears.

"why are you late?" William questioned.

Flop

Two cat women removed their cloaks and stood in front of Alan.

They were wearing tight black dresses with swords on their backs.

They stared at William and Catherine with a neutral gaze and nodded at each other.

"huh?" William and Catherine's eyes widened in surprise.

Hannah and Juna bowed their heads in front of Alan's parents.

They spoke in harmony "please don't punish Alan, he was late because of us"

Hannah and Juna have never bowed in front of anyone if their parents were held hostage at knifes end and demanded Hannah and Juna bow down and surrender.

Hannah would take her time and eventually bow down for her parents life, but it would be different in Juna's case. she was just like Alan she would never bow down to Anyone, she was a very prideful women.

But that woman is bowing her head to Alan's parents to protect him, 'I am a lucky man'. he liked it when his women would feel jealous and overprotective of him. That was one way they showed their love for Alan.

They gave their everything for him.

"Raise your head" Catherine continued:

"Tell me everything," Catherine said with a neutral face.

Alan explained everything that happened to his parents, of course, he excluded the information about his romance with Sarah.

It was a whirlwind of incidents that took place in Alan's journey to the north.

"…" Catherine remained silent after listening to Alan's explanation.

"kyaa…" Juna screamed as she felt his tail being gripped.

She gazed in anger only to find Mia stroking Juna's tail while making a cute face "soooo sooofftt"

Juna's reaction retained as she recognized the girl just by her looks. Mia looked just like Alan, she was very beautiful and especially cute.

"Brother who are they?"

"ummm they are my fiancées" Alan replied.

"what about sister Victoria and sister Ashley?"

"They are my fiancées too"

"Hmm"

"Mia greet them" Catherine said with a warm smile.

Hannah overtook mia"ok please forgive us for our late introduction"

"I am Hannah smith princess of were cat kingdom" Hannah introduced herself followed by Juna.

" I am Juna smith princess of were cat kingdom"

"Iii… amm miaa carrtter" Mia tried her best to introduce in a noble way.

Hannah and Juna giggled and replied in harmony "nice to meet you, Mia"

Mia raised a thumbs-up signal at Alan "Brother I accept"

Mia was doing a personal Quality check on Alan's fiancées, and now she has given an 'OK Tested' signal for Hannah and Juna.

"ha-ha, come here you two" Catherine pulled Hannah and Juna "now tell me everything you did with Alan" she spoke why a sly smile.

Just by glancing at Alan, she knew it all.

Catherine took them away to spend some quality time with her future daughter-in-laws.

But she never looked at Alan, not even a bit… a tiny bit… a single glance… never.

Sigh

Alan sighed internally, he didn't know what was going on in Catherine's mind but he was happy he was able to calm his mother somehow…
