Chapter 122 Two Gluttons 2

Well, who wouldn’t? Melvina’s meals had the capacity to turn anyone into a glutton. He guessed that this might be the first time for the human, that is, tasting his Luna’s meals.
• When he had lost his parents in the last pack war, which had been triggered by Arnold’s greed and selfishness, supported by Maya’s betrayal, he had been devasted, so devasted that he had almost committed suicide. He had wanted to drown in a bottle of vermin which he had stolen from the storehouse, when the Luna, Melvina, had barged into his room, as if she had had an inkling of what he had wanted to do. He had been 14 years of age then.

His mother had been a good cook, but when he had tasted his Luna’s meal, during one of his visits to the main pack house with his father, he had become addicted to it.
