[SYLVIE’s Point of View]I was about to get some hot water when I saw Mandy cursing like an old lady while organizing the papers on her table.I frowned.After what happened last night, I would never tolerate the kind of attitude she was trying to portray toward me. The whole office knew that Mandy was a spoiled bratty kid who was raised in this elite society and was only forced to work in this company because of her father, who was one of Alpha Ray’s top investors and one of the wealthiest magnates that operates in this pack. Aside from that, Mandy’s father was also part of Alpha Ray’s council, and that meant her family has huge influence over the Alpha.But that was not just the motivation that made Many stay in this place. She hated it here. She thought it was some kind of playground where she could play like a queen. Mandy Wallace wanted to be the Luna of the pack. That was why she was sticking to Alpha Ray’s side, hoping he would notice how badly she wanted it. But Alpha Ray is n
[SYLVIE’s Point-of-View]I traced my index finger to the smoothness of his shoulder.His eyes were locked on mine as I made circles on his milky white skin. His plump, rosy lips opened slightly. His brown eyes glimmered under the soft, dim light from the bedside lamp. His brown, disheveled hair was silky between my fingers as he pulled aggressively into a fervent kiss that almost left me breathless.A low moan escaped from my throat when he forced his tongue to explore my mouth. To taste me as I tasted him deliciously. Our tongues played ferociously until he couldn’t take it and pushed me to bed, pinning me with his hands gripped tightly on my wrists.I saw the desire burning in his eyes, and I melted like butter underneath him. He leaned and pressed his ripped body against mine until I felt his hard length against my thigh, giving me a hint of how badly he wanted me.“You are so beautiful, Sylvie. I can’t stop myself when I am so close to you like this,” he murmured hoarsely, his bro
[SYLVIE’s Point-of-View]I had to go.But where?I tried to stay calm and collected as I closed the door and left my room. All my werewolf senses were on full alert, wary of anything hostile around me. I went through the hallways, past the people around the lobby, until I reached the parking area, where a thick, vast forest was just behind the five-star hotel where I stayed overnight.I hadn’t reached the spot where I could call a taxi when someone grabbed one of my shoulders, forcing me to look them in the face.“Sylvie Hall of Moonlight Pack?” growled one of them, who were both wearing black suits and shades.Gamma hitmen from the Westridge Pack!Perplexed, I grabbed the man’s huge hand and twisted it with a speed they didn’t anticipate. It was too late to call any vehicles when they were already after me. Afraid that fear would start to numb my senses, I ran outside the parking lot and went straight to the forest, hoping I could lose them there.My heartbeat was past. Oxygen burned
[SYLVIE’s Point-of-View]“NOOO!!!”I stirred from the bed and jolted upright. My forehead beaded with cold sweat, and my body shuddered as I embraced myself and pulled my legs up to my chest, rocking myself with my forehead on my knees until I calmed down.“It’s just a dream…it’s just a dream…” I kept on whispering over and over, trying to erase the horror that had stuck in my head for over a decade. The room was bright from the morning sunlight, yet cold. And I realized I had left the window open. The sheer white curtains danced in the soft breeze.My hand automatically went to feel the soft, smooth scar on my head. The sharp, shooting pain I suffered from it for years had gone, and what was left were the nightmares that brought me into the human community. I survived. The horror that happened after I outlasted all kinds of pain: the loss of the Moonlight Pack. My father’s death and the betrayal changed my life forever.Feeling dizzy, I went to the kitchen to get a glass of water to
[SYLVIE’s Point-of-View]“Overtime again, Sylvie?”“You are working too hard. Are you sure you are getting enough sleep?”“You stayed in the office until nine last night, Sylvie. Don’t be too hard on yourself.”I nodded and smiled at my co-workers as I distributed copies of last week’s report to them. My wolf sensed that they were concerned, and I was happy that they appreciated my efforts a lot since I worked my *ss in this company to give Oliver the comfortable and worry-free life I wanted for him. Living in this elite community for a single mother like me was harsh, and the school tuition fees, rent, and bills were heavy if I didn’t work hard and do overtime.Don’t get me wrong. The compensation at Alpha Ray Howard’s company was amazing, and the corporation had lots of benefits for their workers. It’s just hard for me to carry all the responsibilities alone. Especially since Oliver was growing into a fine man, and I always wanted him to study at one of the best pack universities.A
[SYLVIE’s Point-of-View]There was no way I could hide the horror many did to me.I caught her wrist when she started walking out, ignoring the disaster she had caused. I didn’t even feel the burning feeling of the hot drink when it spilled on my chest. I cared more about my papers, and I would never let Mandy go away with it!“What the f*ck is wrong with you? Let me go!” Mandy’s eyes widened, trying to intimidate me with her vicious look. “It’s an accident, Sylvie! You are not looking at where you are going!”I hissed, my lips curled against my teeth. “You are not even supposed to be in this area, Mandy! What are you doing here?! Your table is outside Alpha Ray’s office!”She looked at me incredulously and said, “What are you talking about!? I just went to the pantry to get a cup of coffee, idiot! And you were on the way, and now it’s my fault?!”The other team member’s eyes were starting to gawk at us. It was obvious that Mandy was trying to sabotage me with her cute little tricks.

[SYLVIE’s Point-of-View]I averted my eyes from him and Alpha Ray stopped the car on the side of the road as he breathed deeply and slowly.“Goddess, this is embarrassing. I’m so sorry about that.” Alpha Ray chuckled and nervously leaned the back of his head against the headrest of his seat and exhaled, “It’s something I am not in control of, Sylvie. I hope you understand.”As Alpha Ray breathed and focused on himself, I saw how his Adam’s apple moved up and down as he swallowed hard. I didn’t know what happened, but I felt it as well. The attraction I never thought I would feel for the man who offered me help the day he found out I was one of them—a she-wolf living in a human community. Since that day, he didn’t stop until he convinced me to work for his company and experience being with my kind once again. After so many years, I tried to avoid being in a pack because of the shame that happened in my past. I knew I had to put Oiver first before my fears, so I accepted his offer, kno
