The Lycan King's Fate Calling

Crystal's POV:
Deceiving the children meant I had already succeeded in carrying out half of the plan. I sauntered over to the balcony, basking in my victory. I poured myself half a glass of wine, one that I had made myself last year, and sat myself down on the rocking chair to enjoy the moon.
The kids were leaving to go camping tomorrow. I know that they would be very sad the moment they found out that I had gone, especially Arron.
The longer I thought about that, the more I felt guilty. So, I made my way to the kitchen and made their favorite cookies.
Once I finished baking the cookies, I placed them in a sealed bag so the kids could take it with them tomorrow.
I remembered that they also needed mosquito repellent. Beryl got easily bitten by mosquitos. Coming back from a garden or park, I would notice the many bite marks on her legs and arms.
As I was packing up their things, the hesitation in me to leave became stronger and stronger. It would be the first time that I was going to leave them for a long while, and I could not familiarize myself with the feeling.
"Sylvia, please. You need to stop overthinking. It's almost dawn and you should get some sleep." I heard Yana yawn as she encouraged me to go to bed.
I responded to her in agreement. Still, I made sure to spend another moment to double check if all my children's camping bags was ready. Once I was sure, I went to my room to get some sleep.
The next day, I cancelled the plans I had for work so I could be with my children. When noon came, we all went to the amusement park together. Beryl and Arron were so excited and played for as long as they could. We only go home after they'd had their fill of enjoyment.
At around six o'clock, the school informed me that it was time for the assembly.
I drove my kids to the designated gathering area myself. I noticed that Arron was acting sad after getting out of the car. He leaned his head on my shoulder and couldn't move from where we were standing. "Is there something wrong, baby? Why are you upset?" I sent comforting strokes down Arron's back as his behavior was worrying me.
Arron didn't reply. He just wrapped his arms around my neck tighter.
"He doesn't want to leave you, Mommy." Beryl spoke with her childish voice and raised her head at me.
"It will be fine. You know you'll see Mommy when you're back," I said to Arron in a soft voice to comfort him.
Arron raised his head and looked into my eyes to confirm, "Really?"
"Yes, of course." The guilt bubbled up in me again and I tore my eyes away from Arron's eyes. "Okay." Arron twisted his body in an attempt to get off of me.
I placed him down and put the cap on his head. I said to him, "Take good care of your sister, okay?" "Don't worry, Mommy. We'll be fine!" It was a rare occasion for Beryl to behave obediently and not contradict me today.
I smiled at Beryl while I held her and gave her a kiss, "Honey, you need to listen to your teacher. And don't go running around, okay?"
"Yes, I know, Mommy. You can go now!"
I let go of both my kids, still hesitant. But I watched them walk away.
The moment I turned around and made my way to leave, the sound of familiar footsteps coming from behind me stopped me in my tracks.
"Mommy!"
Beryl was running back to me hurriedly. With a surprised and concerned tone, "Why did you go back, honey?"
"You dropped something earlier, Mommy. I almost forgot to give it back to you until now." In Beryl's hand was a phone.
I took it from her and tried to recall when I had lost it in the first place. I couldn't seem to remember when.
