The birthday officially started and the guests went ahead to greet Ethan and also wish him a happy birthday. Clara didn't come out of her room for a long time because she was devastated. She never for once believed that she would end up feeling this way on his birthday. How was she supposed to take this in and behave as if nothing happened or she didn't see anything?

Her door was banged upon by Elena times without numbers because she was becoming extremely worried.

"Clara, if you don't open up now, I swear to the goddess that everyone's gonna be here to get you out." She threatened and the door was opened a few minutes later. Elena frowned when she saw her friend's appearance. Her frown deepened when Clara refused to make eye contact with her.

"What happened? Why is your face like this? Did you just ruin the makeup with tears? Wait, why are you crying? What happened?" She asked multiple questions and locked the door after stepping into the room.

Clara sniffed and looked away.

    Drake fixed his eyes on Clara for a long time, his greediness was surfacing and this made him deaf and blind to his surroundings. He kept asking himself how he had let go of her back then. "Drake, you are a fool. That's our mate right there. She is one of the prettiest." Drake couldn't believe his eyes. But what was Clara doing that she was looking this fresh and beautiful? He didn't approach her at all and also made sure to keep his distance because he wasn't sure how she would take it if she saw him. He didn't want her to run away by the time he was ready to talk. Clara was staring at her man…her supposed mate dancing with his first love. How more could this be for her? It was painful and the thought of it was killing her inwardly. She felt alone even among hundreds of people. She could not open her mouth to say anything regarding her issues to anyone at the moment and just had to bear it.As she was standing, watching them slowly dance, she thought about her choices once mor

    Clara was shaking all through as she allowed her thoughts to settle down. Everyone was out and watching the show, and there was confusion as to what relationship Clara shared with Drake. Ben bent to Drake's level and held him by his collar. "What did you think you were doing?" He asked sternly. "What do you mean? Who are you and why are you interfering? She is my ma… girlfriend!" He yelled at Ben's face. "Don't you dare raise your voice at me, young man? I am not your mate. Don't you have any respect for women? How dare you try to assault her?" "Assault her? Didn't you hear what I said? She is my girlfriend!" "How can she be your girlfriend if she is my fiance?" Ethan asked from behind and Drake ducked his head to see who it was. Ethan approached him with a stern look. Drake was however surprised when he saw him, he looked from Clara back to Ethan. Things were not right. "Fiancee? How? No, she is mine. She is my girlfriend." He still wanted to prove it. Ethan went a

    The night came to an end all of a sudden with bad memories to remember for life. Ruby and Joseph locked eyes with each other, they smiled and Joseph secretly gave her a thumbs up.People started exiting the party and the situation became the topic of the night. The social media was filled with different topics and titles from the incident such as; BROTHER & SISTER IN A RELATIONSHIP?, COMPLICATED LOVE LIFE, RUINED BIRTHDAY AS THE TRUTH GOT REVEALED, and so on. "I was never expecting this twist," Joseph mentioned as he drove out of the place. "I know right? I was also surprised but then I saw that things were working in our favor so I had to take advantage of it." "How did you figure it out?" "My eyes never fail me and I also happen to be at the right place at the right time. I overheard a few girls talking and that was where I got to hear the real issue about the family." "It seems the universe is in support of what we are doing." Joseph chuckled. "I think so too." Ru

    Olive drank from the cup that Lucille had given him filled with water. He allowed his brain to reset and also to get what was happening. In front of him were Ethan, Ben, and Ophelia with their heads bowed. He was so disappointed in them. He didn't care about the reason they must have done this, but for it to have been posted on social media platforms and now known for it…it wasn't worth being happy about.Ben was fuming so hard. He was angry and had the same mindset as Olive regarding why Ethan didn't want Clara to be Luna. He had not spoken a word to Ethan since the fight with Drake because if he did, he couldn't assure himself or anyone else that he would be able to hold on to his wolf. They might nearly kill each other. Ophelia on the other hand was skeptical about how Olive would take things with her. She didn't know who could have blown the pictures. She only planned tonight to be for Clara's disgrace while she confessed to Ethan. Who knew that things would turn around and stab

    "You need to come down for breakfast, Clara. You can't keep hiding away from the truth." Elena consoled her. Clara was slowly putting on her shirt absentmindedly while Elena kept talking. She didn't eat anything last night and Elena didn't bother her about it but it was another brand new day. There was no need for her to starve to death unnecessarily. "Please, you can at least confess to Mr. Olive even though I don't see the need anymore. He must be aware of it all but you have to be brave to face the situation. At least, you could listen to Ethan's explanation." "What explanation could he possibly have? I do understand if he doesn't love me but at least, he should have respected the bond that we share. I am his mate. If only I understood what Ophelia meant all these days, I would not have been as shocked as I am." Clara answered. She wasn't crying anymore, she was done crying and was going to brace herself up. "Everything will be settled this morning. Just give him a cha

    "Why did you do it?" Clara asked after they were inside his room. Ethan wiped his sweaty palms on his pants as he prepared to answer her question. "I didn't know that she was going to kiss me but please, Clara, can you sit down and let me explain a few things to you? When I am done explaining, if you want to fight with me or say anything then I am willing to bear your judgment after this." He persuaded her.Clara, with reluctance, sat down. She had been advised by her father and Elena that she should give him a chance to explain himself. She also believed that this was the right thing to do rather than jump to conclusions even though it was hard to accept. "I am all ears." She whispered.Ethan pulled his pants a bit and sat on the chair while Clara sat on the bed with a dull look. "I am sorry for making you experience everything. I will be sincere with you and I will explain. Yes, I did have a crush on Ophelia. She was my first love. Ever since she became a woman, I have

    As a car drove into the compound, everyone stopped what they were doing as their focus was on it. Immediately some of them started howling while some of the wolves stood up to protect their loved ones. The way the car was rounding the premises intending to find a spot to park, was the way the wolves were taking a step one after the other, watching curiously because the car belonged to Ethan.The invasive scent got stronger as the door opened only for Johnson with Clara to come out of the backseat. Then Ethan came out of the driver's seat. The wolves calmed down a bit while some went back to sitting down. They glanced at one another, why was a rogue brought into the pack house?Clara was a bit scared after she saw their reaction but was at least comfortable that they didn't pull off any funny tricks. "Let's go in," Ethan said respectfully to Johnson. The man nodded and they entered the mansion as expected. Not far from them, Olive was facing the entrance and so easily got to see

    It's been a few days since the incident and Ethan had been making sure that things get resolved as soon as possible even though it wasn't easy because the masses wouldn't stop talking bad about him and his family.Ophelia arrived at the pack with her head buried in shame. She hadn't come home for a while and she was very unhappy that people didn't ask after her, not even her foster father, all because of Clara.She was in total disbelief. How can someone like that manage to cast a spell on the rest of them so that they couldn't see how pretentious she was? No one even got angry after they realized how fraudulent she was with the help of Ethan. That was what annoyed her the most.Ethan!He was the dumbest person that she had ever known. Despite her love for him, her sacrifices simply meant nothing to the fool. He was blind to see it because Clara was doing the work. Ophelia was unhappy that things were not going her way but what else could she do?Her sacrifices were in vain. As she

    Ethan settled down as far as he could from Ophelia and he had as many abled people beside him to probably stop him from strangling her to death. There were Clara, Ben, Lucille, and some other abled men for this short mission.The elders were allowed to start talking while Ethan kept shut because it was more advisable to do so. He wasn't in the right state of mind. "We received a letter on your behalf from this young man…" a woman pointed at Jackson while speaking to Ophelia. *Who claimed to be your mate? How true is this?" She asked her.Ophelia blinked, her heart was still racing, all of a sudden this apparent situation of hers opened the door for more headaches, worries, high blood pressure, and whatever one could feel and think about at the point of death. "Yes…yes…he is my mate." "He is human," Lucille said and locked eyes with Ophelia meaningfully. "Yes." She answered with a whisper. "Do you really want to apologize or you just had him do that as a fake? You've

    "What do you think is going to happen now? Will he accept it? It's been days." Ben asked as he put Sofia to sleep.Lucille was dusting off imaginary dirt off her clothes and then looked at her husband after he mentioned that. "You didn't know?" "Know what?" "Luna has already sent a letter back to them but I think the question now is will Ophelia come or not?" She answered.Ben sighed, "I just don't even know my stand in all of these. Will everything go well for our good? Ethan doesn't seem like he is in a good mood to want to welcome anybody. He has been yelling at everyone at the company." He rubbed his hair.Lucille sighed and put down the big bear toy that she was holding. She went to meet him and wrapped his arms around her waist making him place his head on her tummy. "I know how badly you want to help me. Everyone is as confused as you are so don't hurt yourself that much. The pain is gonna be there but that day, Ophelia did recognize her mistakes and was trying

    "At least, you were able to spread positivity through your behavior," Ethan said as he walked into the mansion with the ladies. "And I am proud to have given her a mark that she won't forget in her whole lifetime. I also told her that I am watching her. I can't easily forget what she did. I went almost naked on national TV. If I had been totally naked, I would have been going through therapy now and her apologies wouldn't heal me." Agnes complained and flung herself across the chair.A wolf passed by them carrying Sofia on its back. "Anyway, it is all gone now and she has turned a new leaf. Try being friendly towards her." Clara said as she rubbed her tummy subconsciously. "I will try to but I won't hesitate to bring her down to her knees if she goes insane." She threatened. Her phone rang, popping up Brown's name on the screen. "Hey…yeah, we are back. Alright, I will be there. No, there is no need for that, I can come all by myself. Hmm…see you later." She ended the c

    Jackson stood to look at his mother who seemed to be arranging something in front of the house. He was squeezing his fingers nervously as he watched her. He was totally fidgeting.He didn't know how he was supposed to approach her because her actions were always unexpected. Rihanna sighed for the third time. Living a lonely life was hell and her husband was not around.Was he even worth being called a husband? Her present family was nothing but trash. There was no peace…no love, just her alone. There was nothing to gain as it was an absolute waste of time.She turned around and saw Jackson standing there, staring back at her. She eyed him without much reaction. One was expecting the other to tell him to come but staying off was probably better because anything dangerous could happen. Rihanna spread her hands open suddenly for him and Jackson's eyes widened. There was that rise of hope in his eyes as he looked from his mother to her hands that were opened in front of him. Rihanna ur

    Jackson left the house after taking a day off from the restaurant. He was inside a cab heading to Lydia's father's house for a meeting. According to the plan that Ophelia had devised yesternight, he was to go to her father's place before she did anything dangerous while she promised to work on his mother instead.He didn't know what she was going to say to her but he hoped for the best. As he was going, he felt nervous because he didn't know what else he was going to face on his side.What if he didn't like him anymore and decided to punish him? What if things wouldn't go the way that they planned? He was sure of one thing and that was, Lydia was going to get mad at him. But he was ready to do whatever it took for himself to regain his freedom.The cab dropped him off at the gate and he paid the money before entering. The security man cross-checked diligently as he was supposed to do before letting him in while someone else brought him to the garden where the man was sitting.He was

    "Why can't just people face what they are doing, huh? Why must they be concerned about other people's affairs?" Agnes said with frustration.Lucille came into the sitting room carrying a plate of fruit for Clara to taste. "What happened?" She asked. "Someone went ahead to spread pictures of Luna and Mr. Henry, claiming that the both of them are dating." She answered. "That's absurd," Lucille answered and collected the phone from her hand. She took a look at the contents and rolled her eyes afterward before taking a seat. "Well, to be able to sell, they need to provide enough false news. And telling the tales of Billionaires seems to work just fine for them, I guess." Lucille replied.Clara didn't even mind and only focused on eating her fruits. "I hope the Alpha won't get worried and over-jealous after seeing this. The pictures are quite intimate." Agnes showed Clara. "If he doesn't get jealous, that only proves he doesn't love me. If he considers this to be fake j

    Jackson came back with a glass of drink for her and sat beside Ophelia who was sobbing. By now, she was trying hard to stop herself from crying and eventually started hiccuping so Jackson had to attend to her. "Here. Have some water." He gave her the water and she collected it with trembling hands. "Thank you."Jackson nodded and watched her drink all of it. What could be the problem? Who offended and made her cry? Why was she crying? She had always been that strong face woman that he knew so why was she crying?After a few minutes, she was done drinking the water and gently put down the cup. "May I ask why exactly you are crying?" Jackson asked her again worriedly. Ophelia bit her lips and fumbled with her fingers. Maybe she shouldn't have come here directly but she wasn't in the right state of mind to want to be alone. "I…I"Jackson sighed, "It's okay if you don't want to talk about it. At least, you came to me when you are unhappy and that's enough to keep me glad bec

    Ethan drove out of the ice cream store that evening, feeling a bit pressured. Beside him was Ben who was going through the things that he had bought for the hundredth time in a row. "Alpha, the flavors are complete and I can assure you that she will love them." He said. "You are not here so how can you say that on her behalf?" Ethan raised his brows and Ben just scoffed. "I can't believe that you are behaving like this now. What happened to the strong Ethan I know? Come to think of it, during my time, you didn't consider me serious. You would mock me all the time and whenever I called to cry out to you for help, you just ignored me and reported me to Lucille for more suffering. Don't you think that it's my time to repay the deeds?" He smiled at Ethan like a maniac and Ethan successfully pulled out the leadership card against him "As your Alpha, you shall obey me." He ordered and Ben's smile slowly dried up as the corner of his lips went downwards. He was displeased at the

    "Remember that you have to put on a good smile and act accordingly to the plan, do you understand?" Lydia instructed through gritted teeth to Jackson. The latter was dressed in a fine suit and his hair was well made so it could give him a more beautiful and innocent look.Currently, they were in Lydia's father's house for an introduction and Jackson felt more nervous than ever because he had not been in such a situation before.His pupils kept moving from one side to the other because of his anxiousness.Then suddenly, they both heard the sound of footsteps coming from the inner part. Unlike any other house with a staircase in sight whenever someone came in, Jackson concluded that they must be in the waiting room because there was no staircase in sight for him even though it was a big building that ought to have one.An aged man then appeared with a lot of electronic gadgets. Some were his phones. He seemed to be in his seventies as most of his hair had turned white. He was wearing
