The Mind-Reading Mate Why Is the Lycan King So Obsessed With Me novel Chapter 579

Chapter 579: Only A Dream? (I)

To avoid going through the same tragedy again, Edmond and Rose decided to live by themselves deep within the forest.

The first few weeks were difficult, but little by little, they adjusted to their new life. Before long, the forest truly felt like home.

Edmond built a simple wooden hut, hunted for their food every day, and chased away any predators that came too close to their home.

Meanwhile, Rose easily made clothes after learning how to sew and weave back in the village.

She also took care of their small livestock—rabbits, sheep, and cows—that Edmond had captured from the wild and brought home.

"Are you tired?" Edmond asked as he returned after chasing away a pack of wolves that had wandered too close to their home. "You should get some rest. I’ll take care of the rest."

Rose smiled and handed their daughter to him. "It’s still too early for you to tell me to rest."

The little girl immediately reached out with both of her tiny hands. Edmond chuckled softly before lifting her into his arms. She giggled happily and grabbed onto him, clearly pleased to be in her father’s arms.

"There’s no such thing as resting too early," Edmond said with a smile. He lowered his head and gently kissed Rose on the temple. "You’ve been sewing winter coats for us for the past few days. I think you deserve some free time."

Rose smiled and playfully smacked his arm. "That’s nothing compared to hunting down bears so I could make those coats from their fur."

"Just get some rest, alright?" Edmond said gently.

With their daughter resting comfortably in one arm, he reached out with his free hand and gently stroked Rose’s head. "Give yourself some time to relax. You need to rest your mind too."

Edmond wasn’t saying that without reason.

For the past month, Rose had often woken up in the middle of the night with fear written all over her face, her body covered in cold sweat.

She told him that she kept having the same kind of dream.

In those dreams, the Cardinal and the people from the Holy Temple always managed to find them. They would come to their home and take her family away from her.

Rose would desperately search for Edmond and their daughter, but no matter how far she ran or how hard she looked, she could never find them.

At first, Edmond tried to convince her that they were only dreams, born from the fears she had been carrying in her heart for so long.

But as time passed, the dreams only became worse.

They felt more real each time, and sometimes, even after waking up, Rose couldn’t completely shake off the fear. She would look around their home nervously or suddenly worry that someone might be watching them.

Seeing her like that made Edmond deeply worried.

"Alright," Rose finally said. She gave him a small smile. "I’ll rest. But I want to fetch some water first so I can take a warm bath."

Edmond gently caressed her cheek. "Alright, then. Be careful."

Rose simply smiled in response. She turned around and made her way toward the river, which was only a short distance behind their home.

The path leading to the river was one Edmond had made especially for Rose.
