I stared at the clock ticking continuously as I arranged my files in my room. The smell of freshly baked cookies filled the air as Miss Felice just delivered them to my room.

"You hardly ate anything my dear boy. Have these for now." She said with a warm smile and I smiled back at her. She stared at me and hesitated to speak.

"Do you have something to say?" I asked her.

"It's just that I wish you could be genuinely happy." She said with sad eyes and I smiled brightly at her as I moved closer and held her cheeks with both arms in a playful manner.

"Don't I look happy enough?" She sighed and pushed my hands away.

"At least you can still joke around. I just hope you do the right thing. I can't outrightly advice you to follow your heart, but I do hope you make the right decision that is best for everyone." She said and I contemplated her words.

A decision that was best for everyone, it was probably that decision that could cost me my happiness. Oh well, I didn't have time for that thought

    The air was crisp and clean, with a hint of freshly brewed coffee that the servants just served. I sat poised reviewing the files from the Lane packs representative, Archie Addams.On a sleek, silver platter, a delicate arrangement of pastries beckoned flaky croissants, buttery Danish, and crispy bagels. Atop each pastry, a delicate slice of smoked salmon glistened. Dollops of cream cheese, infused with a hint of lemon and dill, added a tangy contrast.Archie and his assistant helped themselves, while Nicolas had been stuffing his mouth since the beginning anyway."So as you must have already been informed," I said just as Archie was about to pick up another buttery Danish from the platter, he paused and turned to look at me."Hmm, like I was saying. You must have already been informed that we would be working with the Crescent Moon Pack to solve this case." I said to him and he nodded as he sat up."I have been pre informed. Although, the Lane and the Crescent Moon Packs have been at

    ~ Iris POV ~For the past few days, I have been doing nothing but running around the whole house all in the name of running an errand for Miss Eleanor. Sometimes I felt like she hated me, but that couldn't be the case. She was really nice to me.I went back to my room, all exhausted and tired from today's work. It felt like I was training for the Olympics or something."Do you feel better now?" Anne said as she massaged my legs with medicinal ointment. My legs were trembling."I feel relieved. Thank you Anne.""My pleasure." She said with a smile."Did you do something to Miss Eleanor? Or is it just me that feels like she's pissed off with you?" Gina asked abruptly."I don't think so." I replied as I stretched my legs, but I could still feel little pains."Why does it look like she's bullying you? I don't understand?" Gina said as she looked like she was seriously thinking about the issue."I don't think she's bullying Iris," Anne said. "She's probably just being a spoilt rich girl."

    "More egg Benedict Miss Eleanor?" I asked as I saw the one in her dish had nearly ran out. She frowned and didn't say a word. She took a sip of her coffee. Pack Master tried throwing in a few words but she seemed too pissed to give a proper reply."What was this atmosphere?" I muttered quietly to myself. Leigh walked in quietly and her mood was lifted at once. It makes sense now. She was waiting for him to arrive."I'll like that refill now Iris!" She said beaming with joy. "Serve Leigh as well," she ordered."No need." He said before proceeding to grab a toast and a sausage. Miss Felice came close and served him freshly brewed coffee, which he didn't refuse."I'm so happy you decided to join us this morning." Miss Eleanor said and he didn't reply. His head down as he munched slowly."It even shouldn't be a choice. Doesn't he know he should join the whole family for a meal everyday?" Master Alan said annoyed. Leigh just sat there and didn't make a comment. When he was done with the sl

    I stood in front of the door, hoping and praying to the moon goddess that Miss Eleanor wouldn't find fault with the pastries this time. I said a few words of prayers before I knocked and entered."Here, Miss," I said as I served the tarts."Don't tell me they prepared this down too?" She asked with raised brows."This is a fresh batch." I replied."No fun!" She whined, tossing her phone away.What did she mean by no fun? This woman was obviously messing around with me."Bring it closer to me," she commanded and I did as I was told. Luckily, she didn't reject it or send me back, but she ate the whole thing. She got a call and she frowned as soon as she saw the caller ID."What?" She replied in the harshest of tones I had ever heard her use.They talked for a while and she frowned through out the conversation."Do whatever you want. I'm not coming back. Bye!" And she hanged up. I didn't dare ask her who it was but seems like she wanted to vent so she told me anyway."That Travis is seri

    I was troubled. Miss Eleanor was definitely acting strange and suspicious. I didn't seem to understand her at all or what she was thinking in that head of hers.She excused me after dinner and I went my way. After Archie had left this morning, he called me but I didn't pick up. I blocked his number and he called with several other lines.Why the heck was he calling me? Wasn't he happy with his mate? He should leave me the hell alone. I was pissed, but mostly distressed. I didn't want my past with Archie to be disclosed, I was already seen as a mate stealer by the other servants, I don't want more complications. I may act touch when they gossip about me, but there is a limit to how much hurtful words I can endure."My hands are gonna rot," Anne whined as usual. "Iris dear, can I have a massage?" She asked with puppy eyes. I sighed as I went over to her."Iris also needs a massage, why are you bothering her?" Gina scolded her."Should I have asked you then? You won't help me anyway." An

    I listened to Gina's words, and I felt like killing that so called Luka Lane. He needed to be dragged around naked, before getting burnt."He's so horrible." Anne sobbed."True. But remember, this has nothing to do with us. Alpha Luka Lane is a high ranked Alpha and it's our duty to serve him. Do you girls understand?" Gina said warningly.I understood what she meant, but I couldn't help but despise the man.It was morning and breakfast had been served. Leigh didn't join us this time and Eleanor didn't seem to mind either. She kept glancing at me, and smiling sheepishly. I wondered what she was thinking about.Today, she seemed like she was in a good mood and didn't order me around like usual. She just took me out to shop for new clothes. She hadn't even worn all that she brought but now she felt like she needed a change of wardrobe. In her words, 'a woman needs new clothes every week'She dragged me round the mall because she didn't seem to like anything on display. I was tired and s

    ~ Leigh's POV ~The look Iris gave to Archie this morning still lingered in my mind. For some reason, I was worried. They must know one another, but how? I moved uncomfortably in my work seat as it was hard to concentrate.There was a slight knock on my door and Eleanor let herself in. She wasn't with Iris this time because I couldn't smell her around. I knew she has been hanging around my door every time Eleanor comes into my room, because I had asked her not to come in here again."What do you want Eleanor?" I asked uninterested in her usual chattering."Oh dear Leigh, you are not very nice," she sulked and I rolled my eyes."Just say what you want and leave. As you can see," I gestured to the piles of paperwork in front of me, "I am busy." She scoffed as she made her way to where I was seated."Oh dearie, look at how creased your brows are, is it because of work or something else?" A sly smirk curled up her lips and immediately I knew she was up to something."What are you up to th

    I paced back and forth in the room in anticipation for Nicolas call. My phone chimed and I checked it immediately, but it was a spam message. I sighed restlessly as I saw the message."Stupid people. Don't know when to send messages." I grumbled as I continued pacing. It was almost two hours and Nicolas hasn't gotten back to me. Why was he so slow in finding information.My phone rang and I picked up immediately."So what's the news?" I said immediately."Take a chill pill man, I haven't even breathed. And do you know how hard it was to dig this up?""Why was it hard? It's just finding out a few details." I said and he chuckled."Well, this few details seems to have been purposely covered up to prevent any news from spreading." He said."So what did you find out?" He kept mute before speaking."So from my investigation, Archie Addams and Miss Iris seems to have had a romantic past." He said and I clenched my fist trying to still give the benefit of the doubt."So what happened to them

    I was feeling so frustrated and I didn’t even want to be here or do any of these. There was actually no use having me here since the head servant practically picked out everything herself. From the dress to shoes to the jewellery. I just sat there like a pile of nothing as my thoughts kept wandering around like someone lost. Well, I was lost. My memory was. After the hassle, we were finally done and the servants escorted me back to my room. It was like procession, as the servants walked in front of and behind me, as if shielding me from something dangerous. I felt suffocated and trapped here. "Could I… could I take a short walk?" I asked the head servant, my voice barely audible. I knew I wouldn’t be allowed, but I just wanted to try. "Just a brief look around the grounds? And we’ll be back.” I said innocently.But she shook her head. "I am afraid that would not be possible, Mistress Amore. Master Luka would not approve and he gave strict instructions to not let you wander."“But...

    The air in the grand dressing room was thick, not with dust, but with the nerve wrenching sweetness of a hundred different floral perfumes, all battling for dominance to get to my nostrils. I was perched on a soft royal blue cushion, and I could feel the weight and pressure on my shoulders, though my mind was currently miles away, lost in the swirling, fragmented images of my dream. It was still a puzzle that I couldn’t quite piece together, so it bothered me so much. Much more than having to pick out the perfect dress for my mating ceremony.Around me, a flurry of activity unfolded, a meticulously choreographed dance of silks and laces as designers, with faces etched with practiced professional smiles and a hint of desperation, paraded their creations before me, sampling them as the best of the best for the occasion. Each gown was a masterpiece of its own, having intricate beadings and embroidery, meant to enhance my beauty for the upcoming mating ceremony. But to me, they were just…

    "Betrothed?" I repeated extremely surprised, it possibly can’t be true. Isn’t he too..too old? "But aren't you… aren't you old enough to be my father?" I asked him.His eyes narrowed at me as the grey turned to ice. "You had no problems with it before. Besides, you have been betrothed to me since your birth." He sounded a bit annoyed as he spoke."But…" I tried to counter, but the words got caught in my throat as he cut me off, his voice sharper and firmer this time.“I won't blame you for the misunderstanding this time Amore. You got into an accident and lost your memory. It happens. Anyway, our mating ceremony is in a few days. I do not wish to postpone it. You better get yourself ready." He turned away and dismissed me with a wave of his hand. I stood there, completely frozen, unable to process his words. Betrothed to him? To a man who could easily be my father? He was handsome, undeniably so, with his sharp features and piercing grey eyes, but the thought of marrying him… it was

    The morning light filtering through large windows didn’t make me feel as excited much. It was just like any other day, just like the rest I had spent here. Days and nights has passed by like a continuous endless cycle. A cycle of sleep, bland meals delivered by silent servants, and endless waiting. They all called me ‘Mistress,’ yet I had no recollection of who I was, what this place was, or why I was even here. All I knew was that the servants, though unfailingly polite, were also all awfully tight lipped that it grated on my nerves so much that I felt like pulling my hair some times.“The Master will see you soon and tell you everything you need to know Mistress." They would say, as their eyes evaded mine.Frustration clawed at my chest and I yearned for answers, for a glimpse of the outside world too. The door was always locked when they left, as if they wanted to mock my imprisonment. Why was I even imprisoned here? These questions I couldn’t answer. I scrambled to my feet as my

    ~ Iris POV ~The first thing that I was aware of was the sound around me. A low unfamiliar hum, like a distant buzzing in my ear. Then voices, muffled and indistinct, like words spoken under water. I tried to open my eyes, but they felt heavy, glued shut with heavy weights. It took a lot of effort, a desperate struggle against the thick pressure that seemed to surround me to finally peer them open.Finally, a sliver of light pierced the darkness, and I blinked, the sudden assault of bright light in my eyes making me to wince and recoil, shutting my eyelids once again. I heard a gasp, a soft, feminine voice, and then a flurry of movement. “She’s awake.” The soft voice said."Get the master quick!" another voice, sharper and more urgent commanded and I could hear clattering around as people moved about. I struggled to open my eyes again to see the people making the sounds, but the light intensified, blinding me again. I squeezed my eyes shut, groaning softly from the sudden sting

    So he was dead? Everything he selfishly desired were gone just like that. I moved closer to him as I transformed to my human form. I held his lifeless body as I sobbed. I just couldn’t control the tears as they streamed down. No matter what, and no matter how I claimed to hate him, Chad was still my brother. The one I wished so badly to be close to as a child that I never doubted him. Even as I grew up, I still secretly wished to be accepted by him and father. I was bitter, and full of hatred, but I had never imagined that I would end up killing him with my own hands. I sobbed even harder, holding his lifeless body closer to me.“I hope in your next life you can have a better heart and stop thinking so negatively that you feel you would have to deceive and use others.” I said with a broken heart as I shut his eyes with my hands. I could hear the ringing of my phone at the corner, probably fell there when my clothes ripped as I transformed. I laid him carefully on the ground as I

    The air crackled with an unseen energy as Chad transformed. His veins bulged beneath his skin, each muscle rippling with raw power. This was not the frail wolf he used to be, but a monster advanced by cursed medicine and as he would call it, ‘science’.The wolf let out a guttural roar, a sound that seemed to shake the very ground beneath our feet, and he charged at me with a deadly strike.I rolled, dodging the initial attack, I retaliated, a flurry of punches and kicks aimed at the beast he had become, but it was like hitting a wall of granite. He sidestepped, his movements fluid and graceful despite its size, and retaliated with a swipe of its massive claw. His body seemed to be adapting to all my attacks and countering them as he grew stronger with every strike.I barely managed to deflect the blow, the air whistling past my ear as his claws raked across my arm. A sharp pain exploded through me. I gritted my teeth, adrenaline surging through my veins.My men were also being ove

    “No one is leaving!” he sneered. Chad stood before us, transformed. His aura exuded a kind of unnatural power. A power that seemed dangerous.“Step back.” I instructed my men. His dangerous aura was pulsing, and his eyes gleaming with malice."What have you done Chad?" I demanded.Chad's maniacal laughter echoed off the walls. "I've evolved Leigh," he sneered. "Beyond human limits. I am a new being that even the so called moon goddess cannot touch." He laughed hysterically.Gina's voice trembled. "What have you taken? Surely it is defective. You didn’t get the divine blood."Chad's smile twisted. "My masterpiece. A pill designed for perfection. Defective? Yes. But potent? Of course, and that so called divine blood will enhance its powers.” He laughed.“You are crazy!” she spat at him. "Oho! No little bunny. I’m not crazy, but I am a new specie created with my own hands. Enhanced strength, unmatched intelligence. I am the perfect being." His eyes blazed. "I'm unstoppable.""You'r

    “Iris?” I called out softly but she didn’t seem to hear me as her eyes seemed completely empty. I rushed to Iris's side, embracing her warmly."Iris thank the goddess! We're here to save you. You hear me?" But she pushed me off, her eyes blazing a golden glow.Unfamiliar intensity surrounded her. An energy I couldn’t recognise."Iris?" I called out again but she didn’t respond to her name.What's wrong? This....she seems so unfamiliar like I’m looking at a different person entirely.She turned to Chad, anger flaring up in her burning gaze."Chad Troy,” her voice echoed in the room and it sent a chill down my spine. “you have tampered with divine blood," she declared. "Do you confess to your heinous crimes?" She sneered.Chad's lab men trembled. "She.. she’s evolved" one stammered."I think something went wrong. What are we going to do?” Another said as he trembled.Chad glared at them. "Silence! The blood we’ve got...check it." He said panicked, but before he could move, she moved
