Jack’s point of view:Rose and I were in shock. Aaron ran away?"Rose, call her and tell her she can't come now. Ask her to come home right away," I whispered hastily to Rose in a low voice.Of course, I was talking about Olivia. Unexpectedly, Victor had managed to escape.If he returned to the Wouri River Pack safe and sound, only to discover that Olivia had come to the Blue Lagoon Pack on her own free will, Olivia’s alliance with us would be revealed.Rose rushed out of the tent to do what she was told. Soon, she reappeared. Her face was pale with shock and horror.“How is this possible? Do you know how Aaron escaped?" Rose asked the soldier after completing the call. She looked miserable. I knew better than anyone how greedy she was for peace and security.Unfortunately, Aaron’s escape made her dream go up in smoke.The soldier shook his head, frustrated."I don't know yet, Luna. I'm still investigating.”"Take all the other soldiers to track down Aaron immediately. Separated into
Lucy’s point of view:This afternoon, I was busy changing the bandage of the injured in the tent when the flap suddenly folded.A soldier bursts in, the joy written on his face."Aaron of the Wouri River Pack has been caught and will soon be executed! We defeated them today! We won! They will soon make a truce, and then we can all go home.” He announced enthusiastically, beaming.The tent immediately burst into joyful cheers. Everyone was delighted to know that the long war was about to end.However, my expression froze and I couldn't smile at all. Without realising it, the gauze of my fingers slipped to the ground.How could Aaron be caught so easily?I took a deep breath to calm down, my ears buzzing. I passed in front of the soldiers and medical staff who were dancing and applauding happily, unnoticed. Once I got out, I started running and rushed out of the tent. My whole being was burning with anxiety.Since Aaron was caught, Jack would torture him and certainly interrogate him.I
Lucy’s point of view:As soon as I entered the tent, I saw Aaron locked in a cage. His shoulders fell and his head fell as if he were dying. I couldn't tell if his hair was wet with water or his own sweat. He was naked from the waist, and the skin of his back and chest was riddled with purplish red wounds. It was obvious that he had been violently whipped. No one would be able to stay alive after that.Aaron probably heard the sound of my footsteps as I heard the rattling of his chains and handcuffs. He slowly raised his head and looked at me. His eyes were piercing and the corners of his mouth slightly tilted upwards. I didn't know why he was smiling at me."I knew you were coming." The calm tone and Aaron’s pose made me uncomfortable."Thank you for keeping it a secret from me." With deep contempt, I approached Aaron, lowered my head and whispered in his ear: "I'm going to send you to hell now.”I took out a dagger and looked at Aaron. He didn't fight back. Maybe he no longer had th
Aaron’s Point of ViewI shifted into my wolf form and sprinted deep into the forest. I had to escape before Jack could catch up with me.When Jack and Rose interrogated me, I had been careful not to let anything slip about Lucy. Everything had gone exactly as planned. She was my only way out, my trump card. I knew Lucy valued self-preservation above all else—she would never sit back and let me expose anything that could tarnish her reputation. The news of my capture would have spread like wildfire through the Blue Lagoon Pack’s camp, and all I had to do was wait.And, just as I predicted, she came.Foolish woman. The Blue Lagoon Pack was unfortunate to have someone as reckless as Lucy in their midst. She had no idea that my capture had been part of a larger scheme—meant to force Jack into surrender. A few well-placed words, a little feigned vulnerability, and she fell right into my hands. With barely any effort, I had manipulated her into setting me free, and now I was back where I be
Aaron’s point of view:“Why did you bring his body here?”I nodded slightly, confused and worried. “You just need to tell me when you were Jack’s accomplice and stabbed me in the back!”"Aaron, I never betrayed the Wouri River Pack! When your comings and goings were revealed and Jack caught you, I was also confused. Many of your men came back alive at that time, so I secretly investigated them. Then I discovered that this man had been bribed by the Blue Lagoon Pack. He was the one who told Jack and Rose where you were." Olivia held her back straight, her eyes firm and inflexible. Her aura was particularly intimidating.“How can I believe your unilateral statement? Huh, Olivia? Will you take me? For a fool?” I walked to Olivia clenched my teeth, furious. Without an ounce of hesitation, I grabbed her long brown hair, forcing her to look at me."I have the proof." Olivia endured the pain with a sinister frown.She glanced at this soldier who had brought the corpse. “Go to my tent and br
Olivia's point of view:Fortunately, I was prepared for Aaron’s interrogation. When I learned that Aaron had escaped from the Blue Lagoon pack's military camp, I immediately asked one of my trusted subordinates to kill Aaron’s confidant. I falsified the evidence as soon as possible in order to make it a scapegoat.After Aaron’s interrogation, I returned to my tent relieved. The tension in me ended up easing a little.I narrowly escaped tonight. Earlier, when Rose called me and told me that Aaron had escaped, I had almost reached the forest near the Blue Lagoon military camp. Immediately after the call, I rushed to the Wouri River Pack's military camp with my subordinates. As soon as I came back, I immediately lay down on my bed and pretended to sleep. In less than half an hour, I heard noises outside. Aaron had to come back.As I had predicted, Aaron suspected me. Without the scapegoat I had prepared, I would have been condemned.Later, I called to tell Jack that the Wouri River pack
Rose’s Point of ViewJack led me and our warriors back to the Blue Lagoon Pack’s territory.Though everyone’s faces were lit with relief, we all knew the war wasn’t truly over. The Wouri River Pack had only agreed to a temporary truce—there was no guarantee they wouldn’t resume their attacks on smaller packs or turn their attention back to us. The threat still loomed over us like a storm cloud, but for now, our soldiers could rest. They no longer had to wake up every morning and march onto the battlefield.Shortly after our return, we received numerous gifts from the smaller packs as a token of their gratitude. They had only managed to negotiate a temporary peace because of our help, and they made sure to show their appreciation.To lift everyone’s spirits, a grand banquet was arranged in the Blue Lagoon Pack’s territory. It was an opportunity to celebrate with our allies and ease the tension that had weighed on our people for so long.As I scanned the crowd, my eyes landed on Bianca.
Marvin’s Point of ViewNews of the truce had finally arrived.Jack had led our warriors back to the Blue Lagoon Pack’s territory, marking a much-needed break from the battlefield.During his absence, I had been responsible for managing the pack. It was a difficult task—one I had little experience with. I wasn’t particularly sociable, and my quiet, reserved nature made it hard for pack members to approach me. Many saw me as distant and unapproachable, which only made leading them even more challenging.To my surprise, Bianca chose to stay in the Blue Lagoon Pack for the winter holidays. I hadn’t expected it, but I also didn’t know how to express my feelings about it. Instead, I did what I always did—kept my emotions to myself and reacted in my own clumsy way.Fortunately, Bianca wasn’t one to hesitate. She took the initiative with me more than ever before, and before long, we started living together.In gratitude for our pack’s assistance in the war, the smaller neighboring packs sent
Bennet’s point of view:I ran in the direction I was coming from.Alan was just a child. He couldn't go far in such a short time.Indeed, I spotted a silhouette fleeing in the forest in front of me after searching for a while. I immediately used my ability to teleport to catch up with him.Alan was so terrified that he stumbled back when he saw me appear. I could understand that he was afraid and hated me now.My face was a mask of rage as I approached him with measured steps."It's not funny for you to test my limits over and over again. Alan, you'd better behave yourself."Then I grabbed his hand and started to walk to the farm.Alan tried to free himself from my grip and said in an innocent and furious voice.“Let go of me!”I tightened my grip on him and said with disdain: "Make your age. Come back docilely with me.""What you did is horrible. I won't help you anymore." Alan continued his desperate struggle as I pulled him forward. His shoes left long marks in the ground.I though
Bennet’s point of view:I bought a farm in the north to use as a temporary prison for wizards who resisted me. I couldn't kill them at the moment, since Alan was with me. Thus, I had no choice but to lock them in the farm to prevent their escape. For more security, I put a magic board around the farm.After Alan found out that I had killed someone, he gradually became depressed. He didn't want to go out with me and stayed locked in the farm all day.Initially, I was convinced that Alan did not have the courage to disobey me. But one night, I could feel that the magical network I had set up was slowly disappearing. Immediately, I got out of bed and ran to the farm. Someone had broken the magical network I used to imprison the wizards! All the wizards were busy rushing out of the farm, their cheers for their freedom echoing in the air. Before I could catch them, they disappeared right in front of me using the magic of teleportation.Alan was there, watching them run away with a smile on
Bennet’s point of view:I dragged Alan with me to the north, where the wizards were much more powerful than those in the south. If I could gather enough people to join me, I could soon wage a war.Alan and I stayed in a small northern town. In order to attract more powerful wizards, I often participated in local meetings in the north.One day, I arrived at an ordinary tavern, filled with the aroma of roast chicken and strong alcohol.The wizards of the north liked to show their power more than the wizards of the south. At that time, several ordinary wizards were competing to see who was the most powerful. However, what they showed were the most basic attack curses that did not even deserve my attention."Good good good. Isn't it Bennet? Why did you come to such a remote place?" One of the wizards recognised me standing in the crowd and approached me with a sarcastic salute."I'm just passing by for a quick look.”I did my best to control my disgust. I had no interest in exchanging wor
Rose’s point of view:For the moment, Jack and I have stayed in the official house of Olivia’s pack. Zoe, on the other hand, followed the wizards of the north every day to inquire about news or updates. She then came back to tell us about the fruit of her work late in the evening.One day, Zoe returned after dusk, exhausted and exhausted from all her energy. She threw her high heels without worrying about the world before throwing herself on the couch crossing her long legs. Her face was streaked with thick makeup and she gave off a strong smell of whiskey."These northern wizards are really good at drinking! I had to drink thirty glasses of wine before I could get them completely drunk. It was hell!"I handed a glass of water to Zoe, which she took with gratitude before swallowing it all at once. After a brief respite, she pulled herself together and analysed what she had learned."I heard from them that Bennet seems to have a mysterious anti-magic power, and it has strengthened his
Olivia’s point of view:Now that I had seen through him, Jared got up from the couch angrily and shouted:"What do you mean?""Do you seriously think I don't know what you're thinking, Jared? You know better than anyone why you came to see me today." I sniffed, took the cup of coffee on the table and put a few pieces of sugar in it. The cubes melted slowly while I stirred the coffee with a spoon.My answer left Jared even more embarrassed and restless. He gave me a disdainful look and tried to reason: "Don't be so ungrateful and arrogant, Olivia. Do you seriously think you can be an Alpha woman for a long time?In the past, everyone was afraid of the Wouri River Pack because of your father. Now that Louis is dead, all those who have been removed by him before will naturally not let things happen. Many packs want your territory and your resources. Although the Green Pine Pack's army is a little weak, it's more than enough to help you. But do you dare to refuse me? I'm afraid that the W
Olivia’s point of view:As I listened to Jared's hasty explanation with a frown, I noticed that there was something wrong with his choice of words.Although he said he wanted to help me lighten my burdens, his condescending perception of women was evident in the way he spoke. He sounded as if he was a hero or a knight in sparkling armour coming to save me, the damsel in distress. It was degrading.He was far too arrogant for my taste.Even if I wanted to get married, I couldn't find an ounce of sincerity from him. Not to mention that I was not looking for a husband at the moment. I just wanted to focus only on my homework as an Alpha pack. "Do you honestly think it is necessary for an Alpha woman to get married? That this is more important than anything else in this world? Let's say I married you. When that would happen, you would gain authority over my pack and all the werewolves would cling to each of your words. The way I see it, this marriage would be much more beneficial to you
Olivia’s point of view:The next day, my phone rang when I was having my usual breakfast. To my surprise, it was from Alpha Bill. I didn't expect him to call me so early in the morning.Why did this old bastard call me unexpectedly? Was he asking for a fight? Well, it was perfectly good! I myself wanted to have one.I took my phone, ready to talk to him.However, something even more unexpected happened."Hello, Olivia, sorry to bother you so soon. Regarding our discussion yesterday, I am ready to accept the changes to the contract you propose. I was a little reckless yesterday and I didn't think so. Honestly, now that I've slept on it, I think the conditions you've proposed for our cooperation are excellent." Bill's way of speaking was, to put it simply, extremely humble and polite. There was no trace of the arrogance he showed yesterday.Suffice it to say that I was stunned, quite stunned by his sudden change of attitude. It was strange, and I didn't understand why he was acting like
Olivia’s point of view:After becoming the Alpha of the Wouri RiverPack, I mentally prepared myself to face the challenges ahead. Because I was an Alpha woman, my problems and difficulties were much more important than those of an Alpha man. It was exhausting, but it was in my expectations.Rose was concerned about my well-being.Being the kind person she was, she kept learning about my current situation and seemed eager to help me as she could. I told her everything, without sparing any detail."Soon after I took office, I received many complaints in my file. We may seem to live in peace right now, but in truth, there are werewolves who don't accept me like their Alpha. They openly turned against me several times during our meetings. They suggested making other male werewolves the Alpha.Some even went so far as to sow trouble in the pack! They spread ugly rumours that the pack was in trouble because of my mismanagement. They wanted to force me to resign. For now, I have only managed
Rose's point of view:Shortly after I was discharged from the hospital, Zoe went to the villa for a visit. After Bennet kidnapped Alan, she had taken active measures to find Alan's whereabouts."You heard from other wizards yesterday that they had seen Bennet appear with his men several times in the north. They may be in the north at the moment, but as you can guess, this place is a little too far. Do you want to go?"Zoe looked very anxious when she asked us for our opinion. She was probably deeply worried about Alan."I also want to bring Alan back, and I want to help Jack regain his memory as soon as possible. But I don't know if we can succeed on this trip. After all, Bennet is very powerful."Of course, I wanted to venture into the north. The choice was obvious. I turned to look at Jack, who was leaning against the sofa. He had the whole pack to manage, so it would probably be difficult for him to leave the pack behind."So here we go. I'll let Marvin manage the pack while I'm aw
