Charles’ POV The stench almost froze in the air, as if an invisible hand were strangling my neck. It's the smell I hate the most. When I got off the bus, I saw the blood-red sun setting behind the forest in the distance. The Pines, towering like towers, stood silently on both sides of the road
Then my world went dark. Selena’ POV After Charles got out of the car, I quickly flipped from the passenger seat to the back seat, hid behind the seat, and locked the car. Listening carefully, there was no sound of fighting outside. Every time I meet a vampire, my heart is pounding nervously,
Selena’s POV I've never driven so fast before. As soon as I hit the gas pedal, Charles's car roared to speed, like a silver behemoth about to take off. In the middle of the drive, Charles woke up once, only weakly telling me not to drive to the hospital, but to drive straight home to Dr. Jonny,
Suddenly, the birds outside the window interrupted my thoughts. I no longer struggled, once again reached out to take that thing out of the cabinet. It is indeed a white porcelain mask. My heart was beating frantically, almost in my throat, and I felt my brain stop thinking, leaving only the ima
Selena’s POV When I was a child, my father used to take my sister and me to the seaside for vacation. I playfully sat on the swimming ring. At my happiest moment, I leaned back, and then the swimming circle flipped over, and I fell into the sea in a flash. The water was coming at me from all dir
At this very moment, all these feelings that I was struggling with, wondering, and having nowhere to go, found their way home. My feelings eventually coalesced around Charles and took root. He is a lost and found key, a missing piece of the puzzle, a renewed gear, a soulmate in place. With him, my
Selena’s POV Getting Charles to follow his doctor's orders is hard. Not the “don't work, don't train” part, but avoiding “exercise” in bed. I don't know how other couples get along, but when Charles and I finally recognized each other, we were like... ... conjoined twins. Charles wanted me aro
“You pick the place. I'll go with you wherever you want.” "I don't know where to go..." I thought. I rarely travel. There is no place I particularly want to go. “My travel experience is not much.” "All right, follow me," Charles said, pulling me to my feet and to his desk, where he took a remote
Atticus' POV: I understood that I had no other choice but to get Eloise to agree. The scandal between Lisa and I had been widely spread. The best way to solve this problem was to prove that Eloise and I were still very close, at least to the extent that we could attend this event together. "We
Atticus' POV: Although I wanted to reject the mate connection with Eloise, she sounded very dissatisfied with me right now. Why would she think of me this way? She was the one who had done something unforgivable before. "I've never lied to anyone. I promise you as an Alpha." I looked at her an
Eloise's POV: "How's your chat going?" Soren walked in from the door. He looked at Atticus as if he had just eaten a fly. I swallowed the rest of the words I didn't manage to say. For an Alpha like Atticus, there weren't many things that could hurt him, so this meant that someone must have caref
Eloise's POV: "What? What's happening?" Looking at Soren's expression, I only felt a little scared. My intuition told me something had happened to Atticus, but I still didn't want to believe it. "Don't worry. You'll know when you get there. But before that, I want to ask you a few questions."
Eloise's POV: "I think I need to confirm this with you again." Chloe seemed doubtful. "Are you saying that Atticus wants to have dinner with you? Do you really believe him?" "To be honest, I don't believe it. But he gave me too much money. I won't feel at ease if I don't go," I said sincerely.
Atticus' POV: "Could you be hoping that I'll go and find her now?" I looked at Eloise. I hoped she knew what she was trying to say. However, it was obvious that she didn't realize what was wrong with what she said. I was staying far away from Lisa to avoid future trouble. After all, I knew how
Eloise's POV: I looked at my account balance on my phone and stepped into the store he had mentioned with satisfaction. After learning of my identity, the shop assistants enthusiastically surrounded me. "Isn't this a little... "I tried to stand as far away as possible. "This is what we should
Eloise's POV: The ear-piercing sound of the phone's ringtone pulled me out of my dream. In the dream, I was eating my favorite dessert. I couldn't accept such a big difference. I wasn't feeling my best when I answered. "Hello, who's this?" The person on the other end of the phone only coughed
Atticus' POV: I tried to stay calm, but Lisa was too close to me. This made my wolf feel uncomfortable. She opened her eyes and grabbed my sleeve, looking very aggrieved. "Do you feel better?" I tried not to sit too far away. But the truth was, I didn't want her to be here. She came here alo
