The Untamed: Game of Hearts

That night, Raine had dinner inside her room. Tyrone was with her and he took good care of her every need. Raising an eyebrow, she quietly observed him. And so far, it looked as if the powder had truly worked on him. He didn't remember anything about their intimate moment. And since the Glawackus powder only worked on humans, did it mean that Tyrone was truly not a mutant? That thought lingered in her mind while she stared at Tyrone for a long time.

"What's wrong?" Tyrone asked. They had just finished dinner and he noticed that Raine was constantly staring at him. "Do I have something on my face?" 

Raine blinked at the sudden attention. Did she stare at him far too long without her even knowing?

"It's nothing. Are you sure you don't remember anything when you slipped inside the bathroom a while ago?" she played off the question with a smile. "How's your head? Maybe we should go to a hospital to make sure…"

"There's no need for that. I'm fine," Tyrone said as he cleaned the table. "I'll clean myself up and get changed. Then I'll come back here and stay with you." 

Raine looked at him with a serious expression, "No. I want to sleep alone tonight."

Tyrone didn't comment on her words. He was expressionless as always as he mumbled out, "Alright then. I will leave now. Good night, Boss."

Raine watched his back as he walked towards the door. 

"Ah… I did the right thing. It's better he forgot about it. It's too intimate…" Raine mumbled with a pout. 

"Ahhh! I can't believe we did something beyond cuddling and kissing!" 

Her face burned red in embarrassment, recalling how she enjoyed everything.

Letting out a long deep sigh to calm her nerves, she decided to grab her mobile phone and dial her uncle Yun's number. She selected the video call option to face her uncle even though it was already dark in her room.

"Yes?" her Uncle answered.

Raine had a wry smile on her face as she mumbled, "Ah, if you won't stop meddling with the task you asked of me, then I won't do it at all. You'd be better off doing it yourself if you don't stop bothering me about it. Why would you even interfere, huh?"

"What are you talking about, Raine?" Yun asked.

"I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, Uncle," Reine cooed into her phone. 

"This will be my first and last warning to you. If you mess around again with Xander Yang, then he is all yours. Kill him yourself. I will answer straight to my father as soon as he wakes up and explain why I didn't pursue the work you asked me to do." 

She let out a sly sigh, "Geez, you're so impatient, huh? Now, I wonder why you would even ask me this when you can't even wait for me to finish the job. What're you hiding under your sleeve, uncle? Don't tell me you're doing this so you can frame me in the process?"

Raine could no longer hold her amusement as Yun's face paled on her screen as she continued with a smirk, "Don't mess around with me, Uncle. You know what I do to people who mess with me. I'll be the one to decide whether I should kill Xander Yang or not within this week. So keep your hands off him until then."

Yun's face darkened, "You… How dare you threaten me!"

"I'm not threatening you, Uncle. I'm just giving you a warning," Raine mockingly smirked. "It's up to you whether to heed or not. I'll be ending this call here. Good night, Uncle, and may you have a good sweet dream in your sleep. Don't have a nightmare…" 

Ending the call, Raine stood up and walked towards the bathroom to clean up. After a soothing bath and changing into her sleepwear, she let her body fall onto her bed. 

"Tonight will be cold…" 

She mumbled to herself while staring at the ceiling. She wanted Tyrone's warmth beside her but she feared her own body. What if she became aggressive towards him again and he ended up losing control like a while ago? They might not even end up doing it all the way. And even If they did, then they would be forced to give their relationship a name, right?

Raine tossed and turned as her conflicting emotions made it almost impossible to sleep. She was even startled as she received a video call request from Levi.

"Boss, Aire wanted to talk to you," Levi informed as soon as she pressed the answer key.

"Alright, put her on the call," Raine smiled, partly glad for the distraction it provided

"Mommy, when will you come back?" Aire asked as soon as she appeared on the screen. Raine loved how comfortable the girl was with calling her mommy.

"Missing me already?" 

Aire nodded adorably, "Didn't Uncle and Auntie report to you about how I'm perfectly fine now? I can handle myself now and can go out with you anytime. You can even take me wherever you want in my wolf form as your pet, Mommy. By the way, my wolf's name is Draki."

"Oh, that's a cute name, my dear," Raine complimented, deftly dodging Aire's earlier question.

"How come you're not answering my question? When will you come back, mommy? Will I also see daddy when you come back?"

Levi and Mia both choked on their own saliva upon hearing those words from Aire. They were all in the living room watching some movies when Aire suddenly asked them to call Raine.

"Daddy?" Raine murmured, eyes blinking as she stared at the girl.

"Yes. A daddy." Aire casually stated. "I have a mommy so it's only normal that I have a daddy too, right? When do I see my daddy?" 

Mia stopped herself from laughing while Levi saw an opportunity that he couldn't help but take, "Ah, I'm now your daddy, Aire. You can call me daddy instead of Uncle."

Aire's face crumpled as she grunted, "You're my Uncle, and absolutely not my daddy!" The girl harrumphed. "Don't bully me, okay? Or I will bite you."

Mia could no longer hold her laughter as she burst into a fit of chuckles and giggles,"G-go on, Aire and make him a werewolf too!"

Levi paled as he whispered, "Boss, these two are bullying me here. Can I just stay there with you instead? Mia can handle Aire alone."

Raine smiled at the lighthearted banter, "I think you fit in there just fine, Levi."

She then turned to Aire, her gaze filled with intent, "Dear, I'm your solo parent for now, so that means  I'm not just your mommy, but I'm also your daddy." She let off a comforting smile. "How about you go to bed and let's talk more tomorrow. Show me how much you've improved then, alright?"

Aire reluctantly nodded even as she whispered, "But I want to see my daddy...."

Raine hummed, "Hmm… I'll try my best to return as soon as I can so we can have fun together. Alright? Good night my Aire."

Aire sighed, "Goodnight, mommy. Bye bye"

The call had already ended when Aire whispered, "I'm sure I will see daddy soon."
