With that, finally, the topic shifted to pure business because it was not the reception of their wedding but a business party.

Hours later!!
“I think he really loves you a lot.” Rebecca Weasley, a beautiful woman in her early forties with raven black hair similar to Caroline but purple eyes, commented by seeing Artin and Caroline.
“I think so. He doesn’t leave my side and always sticks with me.” Caroline laughed, caressing her son’s hair, who chose her as his mother.
“Evening, Queen!!” Artemis’s family female members bowed their heads in front of Rebecca. At the same time, all the males were busy discussing business and future plans.
“Evening, everyone!! How’s everything going on in the pack?” Rebecca asked.
“Everything is going great by Moon Goddess's grace,” Sila replied. “I… I didn’t know that Caroline is like your niece.”
“Caro isn’t like my niece but like my daughter. I don’t see any difference between Charlotte and Caro.” Rebecca commented. “And you…” she said, looking at Erica. “I will deal with you tomorrow because I don’t want to ruin this evening.”
“I didn’t do anything, Queen.” Erica tried to explain herself in the next moment; Rebecca controlled Erica’s wolf.
“Tell me the truth, Mika,” Rebecca ordered. Everyone’s wolves shuddered in fear at the power of the Queen.
“My human did this, queen,” Mika told the truth to her Queen, and in the next moment, Rebecca left control over Erica’s wolf and glared at her for lying.
“Tomorrow!! I will be coming to the pack tomorrow and dealing with you there. Leave now. And dare you to try to run away. I can control your wolf even if I will be sitting a continent away.” Rebecca hissed in anger, and Erica quickly left from there while Santino wiped his sweats that appeared on his face. He recalled how he had insulted the mate of the Queen. Now that she was here and was also the Aunt of Caroline.
‘You wanted to kick Artemis out of the office. What if the Queen kicks you out of the pack and does not let you become the Alpha?’ His wolf asked.
‘Shut up!!’
‘That’s Karma. You were digging a grave for Artemis, and now it seems like he will end up becoming the Alpha and CEO of the company while both your hands will be empty.’ His wolf joked.

On the other side,
Brandon was checking the detail of Artemis Thoman Gosling with a frown on his face.

Now that Caroline's identity was revealed in front of everyone. Caroline finally decided to add the details of how she met her foster parents and then how she was killed into two pieces and how a witch named Helena Morgan saved her by giving up her life to save her, and because of this, she ended up becoming a witch.
"Oh, so you were born as a human." Carla, Artemis's Grandmother, pointed out.
"No, Mom. She was never a human. She had her wings from the beginning." Sila cleared Carla's doubts, and everyone looked at her in surprise. "I mean if her wings popped out of her wings without using magic last time in the pack. So, I assumed that her wings are the part of her body." She added so that others wouldn't suspect her for knowing about something that no one knew until now. But then, she was scared that also the truth would get revealed in front of Caroline that Artemis's real mother was the reason behind her parent's death.
"So, you're Siphoner." Artemis's Grandfather said, on which Caroline nodded her head. "You're dangerous of werewolves, do you know that?" he asked, on which Caroline nodded her head again. At the same time, not a lot of creatures were familiar with Siphoners, as they were rare of witch kind. Artemis's Grandfather knew about Siphoners.
"Do you know why exactly Siphoners are born in witches?"
"Yes, Grandpa. Just like Dhamphirs are the result of a union between a vampire and a mortal human. In the same way, Siphoners are the result of a union between a vampire and a witch. That's why Siphoners are different from other creatures. Since vampires are lethal for werewolves, so I know I'm trouble as well as dangerous to werewolves as well. But trust me, I'm not dangerous to my mate."
"Relax, Grandpa!! You're getting worried unnecessarily." Artemis said, squeezing Caroline's shoulder. "My mate is dangerous to no one. And it's not her fault if she is like this, isn't it? By the way, did you meet my brother-in-law officially? He has been cursed in our language. He has been chosen by the sword of Alexander."
"Oh my god!!" Lorenzo exclaimed, realizing Colton was a supernatural hunter. Just like vampires were thirsty for blood, supernatural hunters were thirty for killing all the supernatural creatures. As per the book, they always hear a voice whispering in their ear to kill the supernatural creature.
"You don't have to get scared of him." Rebecca Weasley assured. "He knows how to control himself."
"That… that is for now," Carla said. "But after a few years later, he won't be able to do that. His thrust will take over his mind and his heart. Then… then…"
"Senior Mrs. Gosling." Colton cut her in between. "I'm sorry for speaking in between, but at this moment, you need to think more about Artemis than me. The author can take care of my story on her own." He added.
"Please don't mind him. He is… like this only." Caroline apologized on behalf of her brother and then glared at him.
"It's fine. Artemis was no different when we used to talk with him about settling down." Carla said with a smile.
"Well, what can I say about it? My son, Steve, is also a rude ass." Rebecca commented.
