Chapter 83
Ferris had been reviewing documents in his hands. When he heard “she’s waiting for you downstairs,” his movements imperceptibly paused.
After a moment, he calmly closed the file and said coldly: “There are plenty of people waiting for me. Let her continue waiting outside.”
Simon pressed his lips together and glanced out the window.
Remembering how Aurora had looked like a little snowman when he saw her, he couldn’t help but remind: “Alpha Ferris, it’s snowing outside.”
Ferris leaned back in his chair, his gaze passing through the floor–to–ceiling window. Snow filled the sky, half the city was dyed white, and below, snow and mist were so thick that the slender figure could no longer be seen.
“If she really wants to see me, she’ll wait,” his voice was hoarse but carried its habitual arrogance and coldness. “This is the price she must pay for what she’s done recently.”
After speaking, he pulled the documents back in front of him and began reviewing them one by one, as if the person standing in the cold wind was completely insignificant.
He deliberately delayed until the entire administrative center was empty and night had fallen.
Only then did he stand up, adjust his cuffs, and walk downstairs with elegant but unhurried steps.
Outside the door, there was no one except the guards.
Ferris’s steps faltered, his brow furrowing sharply.
‘Aurora?” He called out, his cold voice dispersing in the night wind, but there was no response.
Frowning, he tried to establish a mindlink–that mental channel that had once been so familiar between them.
…]
3lank.
As if the person on the other end of the mental link hadn’t received the message at all and remained silent.
Ferris suddenly clenched his fist, his knuckles turning white as anger and an indescribable panic surged up together.
she dared not respond to him!?
Where did she go?”
The next second, from the other side of the entrance corner, a patrolling guard ran over frantically, his expression panicked:
Alpha Ferris! Someone just found a female collapsed at the bottom of the west side stairs of the administrative district, with abnormal body temperature–she’s till unconscious and has been taken to the nearby medical facility!”
‘erris’s pupils suddenly contracted, his face instantly becoming extremely grim.
Without saying a word, he transformed into a swift silver wolf and rushed into the night.
Wind howled, snow fell heavily.
Ferris moved swiftly, his silver fur disheveled by the wind. His heartbeat was out of control, his chest feeling as if it were being viciously squeezed by an invisible hand.
No no not her-
The white walls of the medical facility appeared before his eyes. He practically crashed through the emergency entrance doors, growling lowly. “Where is
Aurora?”

The medical staff were startled by his oppressive presence and pointed toward the end of the emergency room.
Fertis strode forward and through the thick glass saw the figure lying quietly on the hospital bed–pale, skinny, with barely perceptible chest movements.
He suddenly stopped, his fists slowly denching-
In that moment, he truly understood for the first time what fear meant.
