A Werewolf Girl's

3.4

The restaurant preparation went well. Since this was their first time opening a restaurant, Lilian and the others made sure everything was in line with the research they had gathered from a few months ago, practice as best as possible according to their respective tasks and practice with the more senior members as their guests.

Promotions carried out in every shopping center and leaflets that they paste and share around managed to attract many guests on the first day. They even considered asking for help from the herd, but in the end they managed to overcome the overwhelm.

The supplies of groceries for their restaurant on that day were completely depleted with no leftovers. Sean, Ryan and Zee who handle the kitchen look half lifeless after all the food and drinks they have to make quickly. The other members did not look too good either. Lilian eventually had to make dinner to fill up before they closed the restaurant.

He was very grateful to the senior members who tucked in the emergency groceries for them.

The second day they walked was not much different from the first day, but this time they were more prepared than before. To prevent fatigue as fatal as yesterday, the interval of time in preparing meals was added and the two members in charge of serving guests were transferred to the kitchen staff.

Instead, Ryan was tasked with providing a welcome meal for the guests to wait patiently. Lilian and one other cashier would occasionally drop off food to make up for staff shortages. The results went pretty well.

Lilian and the other members were now busy serving the guests according to their respective sections. This is the third day of opening, which also means, the last day of the 'all you can eat' promo and discounts on all menus for guests who come in groups. According to Sean's estimation, after today it is likely that the number of restaurant guests will not be this many anymore.

As she looked back at the queue at their cashier, the girl was still amazed by the number of guests coming. He did not expect that the opening of their restaurant was so eye-catching. Lilian could also see some people who had previously come.

"Maybe the price we put is too low" said Mia as they arranged the order.

He thought about the results of their small research, calculating the cost of spending on the food they buy and the total promotional expenses they do during those five days. Nothing seems wrong.

"Of course not, it's thanks to my very delicious homemade recipe" Zee told us. "The guests must have been impressed with the taste of the food."

"Make us."

The girl snorted at Ryan who handed her the appetizer. "Basically from my recipe, of course I contributed more. Aw!"

"Don't make a fuss, get to work again."

"South...." Ryan's eyes were amazed. Only Sean can stop Zee's obnoxious attitude.

"You too, Ryan."

"Ready!" Ryan went back to his part.

Lilian smiled when she saw Sean wink at her and Mia then gently rubbed Zee's forehead that had been flicked. With Sean being more mature than all the kitchen staff, the girl can calm down if Zee and Ryan fight at any time.

"Sean is indeed the best," said Mia sighing in admiration.

Lilian nodded. They were lucky to meet the charmer duo of rats in her sister's herd.

They returned to serve guests who began to form new queues slowly. His eyes suddenly turned to the group of people who had just entered the restaurant, he could feel the same feeling when he met the mature-looking woman on the first day of his restaurant promotion.

The girl actually came, even bringing along many people who seemed to be her friends. Lilian smiled happily.

"You look happy." Mia nudged him a glance.

"He's coming."

"Who?"

"The first person to sample our restaurant food."

Mia stared at him for a while then shook her head, her hands nimbly preparing the food and drink that was already before her. "What do you think."

"Isn't that amazing?" Lilian looked confused. "She also promised to come to the restaurant and keep her promise."

The girl who was only different for a year with him just shook her head again, did not answer and only returned to serving customers. Sometimes, he thought Lilian was completely innocent.

.

From a considerable distance, Stefan stared at the restaurant run by his sister and the younger members. For two days he did not help his members and was busy taking care of other things. They of course understand his absence, he is aware of it, but still the guy has to look at their situation.

He checked her appearance and ruffled her hair in search of any tucking leaves. The guy walked around the restaurant to enter the back door, he did not want to interrupt their work with his arrival in person, the corridor for the group guest room.

Stefan can smell the delicious cuisine and hear the sound of the crowd chatter from the guests who come. He can also see some members delivering customer orders. The man stopped his steps as a group with Ian walked towards him.

"Steffin!" Ian greeted him excitedly, momentarily forgetting his calm and polite attitude to serving customers. He looked wrong when he realized it and cleared his throat.

The guy smiled, patting Ian on the shoulder. "It's okay, Ian." He looked at the faces of his restaurant guests, his gaze fixed on a woman who looked restraint trembling while looking back at him. The guy next to her embraces the girl's body protectively. "Good fun from our restaurant."

"Thank you for the welcome .. we'll enjoy it." The girl replied calmly.

Ian looked at her and the girl took turns then nodded. As he passed by, Stefan could see some people from the group looking tense and the rest looking back at him clandestinely. He gave a small smile to them before walking towards the staff room.

.

"I'm fine." Allison tried not to tremble.

This was the first time he had faced off against another Alpha head-on. His aura was quite different from that of the werewolves in his flock, even compared to his own aura of the fellow leader of the herd, they were like little children facing adults.

"The territory must be around here somewhere" said Dave, tucking a strand of Allison's hair in her ear, still clutching her tightly. "Do you know about this?"

"I really don't know."

Grace did not see or feel anything strange while waiting in line, all she knew was that the restaurant they had come to today had only opened three days ago. Not once did he sense another werewolf's existence while he was here. Girls who indirectly become intermediaries also do not look suspicious or feel like one of them.

"Didn't you guys cross paths with him?"

Hans just kept silent, turning his head towards Grace who shook her head. "We didn't meet him. No one but Ian has given us direction."

"Something I just realized." Chloe looks frustrated. "The staff at this restaurant .. were all under the age of eighteen and none of them seemed to have any blood relation with each other. This looks like our situation, right?"

Their flock also consists of werewolves who are in their twenties to teens. Theo, the twins and their youngest member are werewolves who have not gone through his changes. Before the transformation took place, the four of them were not much different from the ordinary humans present in the restaurant.

"Isn't this dangerous?"

"We're in the territory of another herd without permission."

Theo immediately refuted the words of the twins. "But this is a public place. Who knew the Alpha was just coming to buy food, right?"

"Why is he going through the back door that nobody has?"

"He should have followed us or the other guests who came in from the front door and lined up" Jena added, helping her twin.

The debate between Theo and the twins continues. Two other members of the herd had already replaced the singing twins to cover up the noise caused. On the other hand, Allison now looked a little better even though her face was still a bit pale.

"We have to go."

"But the food?"

Chloe glared at her sister mercilessly, telling her to shut up.

"true."

"I'm sorry, because of me, we can't eat as planned...." Allison looks guilty.

Dave sighing. "It's not your fault, Allison."

The other members nodded in agreement to his words. After all, they had no idea about the other herd for several years either. I don't know what happened so that they could get caught in this unfortunate situation after resolving the past conflict.

The sound of knocking cut through their conversation. The door that opened featured Ian and Lilian carrying trolleys filled with their ordered food.

"Sorry for the delay" said the girl grimacing slightly. He calmly began arranging the food in front of them with Ian helping to place the drink order.

Grace and the others stared at him while slightly helping him pass on food and drinks to reach each member. After she finished, the girl looked at them all with an uneasy look, her gaze especially fixed on Allison and herself a few times.

"What's wrong?" Grace finally asked because she couldn't stand it.

"I knew it was my brother who should have said this in person" he said, opening the sentence, a little stammered. "But he left you a message so that you don't have to worry about permission being accidentally violated, he will consider it non-existent because you only come as a guest and have no ill intentions to our herd. So ... enjoy the dishes from our restaurant comfortably."

"Wait, is it really okay?"

Lilian nodded. "My brother just wants you not to go to this region without permission again and contact us first. There's an email and a phone number you can call on the receipt."

"All right...." Allison smiled. "Thank you."

"No problem! Good meal to you all."

He smiled again before walking out of the room. Ian followed the girl with his trolley.
