**Austin's POV***I cried and shook my head. I knew that once I did not stand in front of my mother, my father would surely kill her.Maybe my mother just wanted him to kill her. She did not want to live."Get out of the way, Austin!" my mother shouted."NO!"My mother was not a competent Luna, or a competent mother, or a competent wife, but I could not lose her.My mother was a bitch, my father was a tyrant, my brother was an alcoholic. I hated each and every one of them, but I could not lose any of them.I wanted a complete family.However, what my mother said next completely destroyed the bubble of that intact family." Step aside, Austin, and let the bastard kill me. None of this has anything to do with you. Iam not even your real mother."I twisted my head incred
24Became laughingstock**Elizabeth's POV***No one would suspect me, right? After all, I was Dummyin everyone's mind. a Dummycould notmake a screaming sound and draw everyone in.In the whole pack, only Carolina and I were the least suspicious. She is deaf and dumb, and I am Dummy.I was not afraid even if damien accused me. I was dating him in secret. We did notopen up about the relationship to the public. No one could assume me as long as I did notadmit it.As for the slip of paper that I gave him, I would not be worried even if Damien kept it as evidence.Those words were written by me in Povidone Iodine. When I handed the slip of paper to Damien, I smeared lemon juice on his palm. Stupid Damien, he must not have thought that the vitamin C in the
25 I gonna...kill...kiss you **Austin's POV** * There was always some female omega coming to try to bring me food these days. I do not know who ordered them to do so. It was probably my father. Oh, I hate him. I hate all the people in this place. So I scared away whoever came to bring me food. The one outside the door should have been scared off by now. Suddenly, I heard the door being pushed open from the outside. A familiar, slender figure walked in with a plate full of food. Guess who I saw, Elizabeth! She looked so calm, as if she did not care about all these shit that had happened in the pack, or the dogshit-like me in front of her. She seemed completely blind to my pain, she just put the plate with the food in front of me and turned away. Was that all? She just meant to complete the task of delivering food ordered by I do not know who the hell gave her? "WAIT!" Elizabeth continued on her way as though she had not heard me, and even quickened her pace. Her hastily flee
26Afunny game**Elizabeth's POV***When Abby saw me, she angrily pointed her whip at me, "Dummy, weren't you following my orders to bring food to Austin? Why did notyou get your eyes gouged?"I rolled my eyes. Oh, I knew it. Anything she asked me to do was absolutely awful."If you have any displeasure with me, just come at me. Donot take it out on the others!" I finished in sign language and then opened my arms wide to protect Carolina.Abby sneered, "So you know youare the most obnoxious bitch of all! You will bring trouble to those around you. Listen, Damien has told me everything. You deliberately lured him to the guest room. It was you who set the trap. Bitch! I will notspare you! I will torture you to death! Youwillbe worse than Damien!"
27My 18th birthday**Elizabeth's POV***"Warning, everyone must follow the rules of the game. Donot mess with me." Brandon stopped her.Abby's chest rose and fell in anger. Clear slap marks were left on her face. Tears fell from her eyes."Just wait and see, Dummy. it will be your turn soon." Abby threatened me."Next question. How do you make eight eights add up to 1000?" asked Brandon.This problem should be hard for Abby. But for me, itis a piece of cake."8+8+8+88+888=1000," I wrote."Great! You got it right again! Next question, Abby."Abby was still in shock, she did notexpect it to be her turn so fast." Whatis the one thing you can only do with one hand?" Brandon asked." Something that can on
28Kiss Brandon**Elizabeth's POV***I stare at the dial plate of my pocket watch. The seconds hand was moving forward. The time was moving forward. The minute hand soon moved from 6 to 10.Ten minutes left. When the minute hand moved from 10 to 12, the day would be completely over. I would never have a chance to get my wolf anymore. My only hope would be completely shattered.I was panicked and scared. I felt like the pocket watch in my hand was a ticking time bomb. It was counting down. It would blow up within 10 minutes. I was so scared. I was afraid to face this harsh reality soberly.I ran to the kitchen, found two bottles of alcohol, and drank half of them like crazy. I decided that I would get drunk no matter what would happen tonight.As I drank, I wondered if alcoholism
29 Drown in the vortex of desire**Elizabeth's POV***I was on top of Brandon. Our arms and legs were entwined with each other. His body heat was so hot it was going to melt me! He was like lava burning me with amazing heat.Suddenly, he rolled over and pinned me down, kissing my neck and breasts.He kept his eyes closed. Maybe he thought all this was a drunken wet dream. Maybe he figured me for Rosa.Strangely enough, I did not want to resist at all. When Damien did this to me, I only felt nervous and repulsed. But when Brandon did the same thing, I expected him to do more.I suddenly realized that the Damien I loved had always been the young Brandon I imagined myself to be when he grew up.I loved Brandon, I loved the gentle and thoughtful young Brandon, and I fell in love with him from the first sight of him.My life has been full of thorns and storms, and just a little bit of sunshine and warmth can make me remember it forever.The glass shards left my hands at some point. I coul
30Fire-breathing Monster**Austin's POV***Her aroma mixed with the smell of blood and burning disturbed me. She must be going through a very difficult time."I could feel that our mate was in a immense amount of pain. She is suffering. We have to find her.""Sheis running faster and faster. I can notcatch up. come on, switch to you." I gasped and said to my wolf."Okay."I Relaxed and let my wolf take over my body. I could clearly see my whole body covered with thick black fur, while my speed increased 10 times.Thanks to my wolf's help, I finally saw my mate's back.I could notbelieve what I saw."Oh my goddess, her whole body is on fire!""Look! Sheis not running. Sheis flying! Look at those two large w
**Elizabeth's POV** * Everything had settled down, and we worked on reconstruction and search and rescue efforts in the aftermath of the disaster. Soon months passed. During this time, we lived mainly on the grassland. It is very spacious, can accommodate many people, and it is the main affected area. My mates and I alternate shifts to look after the baby. My son is very well-behaved, he loves Julian the most and smiles when he sees him, but he seems to be scared of Elroy and cries when he sees him. I think Elroy is so huge that it scares him. With the baby as a point of reference, I realized that in the space of a few months, Julian seemed to have grown a little taller, while Elroy seemed to have gotten smaller. I think the magic that stayed in the grassland and the valley is gone. Without the influence of magic, the giant wolves and the dwarf wolves all started to return to their original appearance. I found out about this long ago. When I left the forbidden valley and came
**Elizabeth's POV** * "Dylan! Where are you guys? Isidore! Louis! Elroy! Answer me! Where are you?" I searched for them in the rising waters, but couldn't find anyone. The rainstorm got heavier and heavier. The sky seemed to have been torn open by a crack. The rain poured down like a waterfall, and I couldn't even open my eyes. The sea was rising faster and faster. More and more people and animals fell into the water, screaming for help. "Help me! Save me!" "Save my son!" "Mom-" "My daughter!" The whole world has turned into a waterlogged hell. My ears were filled with the desperate wails of everyone on the verge of death. In contrast, the orange-tailed merman let out a gleeful laugh. "Hahahaha look at this wonderful scene. This world will become a wonderful utopia. From now on, only noble sea creatures can survive." "Let the storm come even harder!" He raised his scepter high, causing more dark clouds to tumble and converge overhead. "Elizabeth! Watch this! You are my be
**Elizabeth's POV***Seeing them throw the explosives into the sea, I told Isidore and Louis, "We'd better leave. Tell Brandon and the others what's going on over here first. See what they have planned."Then we three left quietly.After listening to our report, Brandon said after thinking, "The wisest option is to take advantage of the process of the fight between the merman and the Blood Moon pack. We secretly sneak into the bottom and take the treasure."Dylan suddenly interjected, "You guys go to the bottom of the sea to find the treasure. I'll stay alone on the beach to fight with the Blood Moon pack. As the former alpha of the sea, I should protect my people. I have not been a competent alpha of the sea for the past 10,000 years. They can betray me and hate me, but I cannot abandon them and hate them."It seems that Dylan has really reflected on his faults. He used not to care about hurting anyone except Isabella.Now he is willing to take responsibility for his people, in addi
**Elizabeth's POV***Gosh, Elroy actually spilled the secret I was trying to hide.All of us were shocked. Even the door to the room was pushed open, and the 5 men outside stared at me in shock.So they had been eavesdropping on the conversation in the room...Isidore's eyes widened, and he asked me, as if he suddenly realized the event, "Elizabeth, is he our son?"In fact, I still can't confirm whether the baby is Brandon's or Isidore's because the baby was born prematurely.Anyway, the baby's father was between the two of them.My eyes accidentally made contact with Brandon, who suddenly opened wide and looked at the baby in the crib."Elizabeth! This is our baby, isn't it?" Brandon asked loudly, and everyone looked at him, then turned to me.Damn, the scene got even more chaotic."I..." I stumbled over my words, "I don't know..."But instead of disappointing Isidore, my ambiguous answer brought a hopeful sparkle to his eyes."Look how much he looks like me."Isidore seems to have
**Elizabeth's POV***"Don't you fvcking think about possessing Elizabeth! If you even think about it again, I'll make you vampires extinct from this world!"Louis laughed out loud, "That's funny. I just like her blood. But the fact that you guys are so attached to her makes me start to get interested in her.""She must be extraordinary. I'll spend more time looking into what exactly makes her special.""Nuts! We won't let you harass Elizabeth if she doesn't want to see you!"I was touched.No one chose to sacrifice me for profit.I think they must have worked very hard to find me. I shouldn't have been so impatient.In fact, I didn't mind their noise. I just, didn't know how I was going to face them.They are both my mates. One of them is the father of my baby. And I don't even know who the father of the child is.I was really afraid they would be angry with me for that.But running away would not solve the problem."Caleb, can you come in the room for a minute? Just you come in." I
**Elizabeth's POV***"We are in your mind. From the moment you opened the crystal coffin, I knew it was fate that brought you to find me. Since then, I have been inside your body, slowly merging with your soul.""Now, what you see of me is the last trace of the soul belonging to Isabella. Soon, I will completely fuse with you. Isabella will disappear from this world, and you will become the complete Elizabeth."I couldn't take in such a large amount of information quickly. I recalled my past experiences while understanding what she said."So...that mysterious power that has been protecting my child, is it you?"I remembered that ever since I entered the sea, my belly would no longer be pierced by swords. I had never thought of the reason before, and now it sounded very much like Isabella was protecting me."Yes, it's me. In a sense, it is also my child."Isabella finished with a sudden sigh, "I don't have much time left. There are very many things that I can't tell you in detail. I c
**Elizabeth's POV***I was awakened by water from the hoses.As I opened my eyes, I found that I was thrown on the floor. Several women were surrounding me, flushing me with hoses."Oh my gosh she stinks! Where did she ever go?""Turn up the water and rinse her off. She stinks so bad I'm going to throw up.""Especially her hair. What's that slimy stuff? Ewww, rinse it off!"A jet of water rushed to the spot on my head where it hurt. I screamed out in pain."Stop! Stop!"No one paid any attention to me as they mercilessly flushed the wounds on my body with water until no blood came out.I was cold and lay on the ground, feeling like I was going to faint again.A man came up to me and pointed at me, and ordered the women.My ears were filled with water, and I couldn't hear what they were saying. I only vaguely heard words like "auction tonight," "don't let her die," "makeup," and so on.I tried to lift my eyelids, but lost consciousness.When I woke up again, I was sitting in a chair.
**Austin's POV***Francis didn't deny it, "Yes, I am. To be precise, I was one of the fire-covered monsters. I killed all the other fire-covered monsters in the Forbidden Valley except for me."Julian seemed deeply prejudiced and wary of him, "Did you hurt Elizabeth?""No. Elizabeth helped me learn to control fire. She let me know I wasn't a monster, I was a fire wolf. We became friends."Now we finally know what happened to Elizabeth after she was sent to the fire-covered monster.She really did perform a miracle." Where the hell is Elizabeth now?" We were all desperate to know the answer to that question.Merman, the only one on the plane who knew Elizabeth's location, slowly lifted his hand and pointed in one direction."I can feel that she took my scale with her in that direction..."All of us looked over in that direction.What a coincidence. This is where we originally wanted to go - the location of the Blood Moon pack and the vampires."Pilots on command, full speed ahead!"*
**Austin's POV***We were flying in a plane over the forbidden valley. Since we all knew the same girl, Elizabeth, we naturally talked about her.The Alpha of Poison Wolf, Caleb, used sign language to tell his sister, Carolina, what everyone said about Elizabeth.From Elizabeth's experiences, we learned more and more about her.No one was more shocked than I was.I'll never forget the first time I met Elizabeth. She was only eight years old and as weak as a fragile glass. She cried and begged me to help her.More than a decade has passed. She grew from a dummy who was bullied every day to a heroine who saved an entire pack and even an entire country.It was hard for me to connect the Elizabeth of my memory with the girl they were talking about.But all the facts forced me to accept it all.Elroy said Elizabeth had led the giant wolves to drive out the invaders and help them survive the crisis of losing their country.I, however, was seeking the help of the giant wolves.No wonder Eli
