"Alpha Albert," Jayden called out.Albert looked away, turning his head in the direction the voice came from. Jayden appeared with a severe face, walking up to the Alpha. From the Beta's expression, it looked like he had something important to say. Albert guessed that this was their pending conversation."Did they call you again?" asked Albert once Jayden stopped beside him."More than that," Jayden replied. The man paused for a moment on his words before saying, "They came here to see you.""They're here?" repeated Albert, as if doubting the Beta's words."Yes, they are here and are waiting for you to talk," Jayden confirmed.Those people were very persistent in wanting to buy his resort. They even brought the matter to the house."Is he Drake Harmon?" asked Albert."No." Jayden shook his head. "They are Mr. White and Mr. Newman.""Alright. I'll be right there," Albert said. The man asked Ryn, "Do you want to come with me?""No, I don't. I... still want to be here, watching them trai
With his body dripping with sweat, Lance went back into the room to clean up. Today's training was quite draining. Lance didn't expect training with those guys to be this much fun. Perhaps he would have felt at home in the Golden Moon Pack if it wasn't a pack under Albert's leadership. Especially with Ryn there, Lance would have loved the place. Unfortunately, all that fun had to be broken by a fact that hit him hard. In that pleasant place, the girl of his heart would belong to another man. In that fun place, his brother was ruling with his arrogance."What the fuck!" cursed Lance as he punched the wall, expressing his training with those guys frustration.Sometimes, fate is so cruel. I don't know how often Lance cursed luck for the wounds carved into his heart. However, the man was still trying to survive, even though he had to struggle to reduce the tightness in his chest.Cold water poured down his body from head to toe. He let the coldness flow across the surface of his skin, was
"If I asked you to leave, would you come with me?"That question made Ryn's body freeze. Lance had just offered her an escape. In other words, Ryn had to leave Albert and go with him.Lance snorted sarcastically while looking away. "I knew it," he said as he scanned Ryn. "You're not going to do it," the man continued."Lance-"Lance cut Ryn off by holding up his palm."You don't have to make excuses. I know what you're thinking," the man said.After saying that, Lance turned around and picked up his things from the nightstand. Then he opened the closet and took out a backpack."What the hell are you doing?" asked Ryn. The girl walked over, suspecting that Lance would do what she had in mind.Lance ignored the question. He was busy taking some of his clothes from the closet and stuffing them into the backpack, leaving only the clothes there since his arrival."Answer me! Damn it!" snapped Ryn. She tugged on Lance's shoulders, causing his body to turn toward her. Ryn gave Lance a demand
As the coronation ceremony approached, anxiety hit Albert's mind even harder. The image of Lance's red eyes was still vividly displayed in his memory. He knew very well that it was one of the signs that the Alpha seed in Lance had begun to emerge. And this made Albert's mind even more uneasy.Whether he liked it or not, Lance was also a direct descendant of Alpha Christian. Actually, the appearance of the man's Alpha seed was not something strange. It's just that Albert felt that its appearance was not at the right time."Looks like he hasn't realized it yet." Albert monologued.Albert thought if Lance did realize it, maybe that guy would do battle with him. It was possible that Lance would try to take over the Golden Moon Pack if he knew that the Alpha seed had appeared in him."Alpha Albert." A voice was heard calling the Alpha's name.Albert's reverie about the cause of his anxiety was broken. The Alpha turned his head towards the source of the voice and saw Sebastian standing resp
Finally, the long-awaited night arrived. It was only a matter of time before the ceremony took place."Where's Albert?" Ryn asked one of the servants.She had just finished her makeup but hadn't seen Albert for a few hours."Alpha Albert is on the balcony, Miss. I saw him talking to Beta Jayden a while ago," the maid replied."Is this finished?" Ryn asked again."It is, Miss," the servant replied."You may leave," Ryn said next.After the maid left the room, Ryn went to the balcony to meet the Alpha. She saw Albert standing from a distance with both hands resting on the balcony railing, his back to her. He was facing the central courtyard, where the coronation ceremony would occur."I've been looking all around for you," Ryn joked as she swung her legs around, getting closer to the Alpha.Ryn's voice made Albert turn away. The man then turned around, welcoming his Luna-to-be. A small smile played on the Alpha's lips. He could not hide the admiration in his eyes. That beautiful face wi
There was an uproar of panic. Some guests were known to complain of shortness of breath, and some of them fainted. It all happened in quick succession, almost at the same time.What happened?That was the question echoing inside Albert's head. The Alpha froze with bated breath, seeing the panic among the guests. Everything was fine until a few seconds ago, he heard someone scream in terror, followed by another panic. It all happened in a short period. This was such a sudden attack, but... who?"Alpha Albert!" called Sebastian.The Alpha turned his head briefly and then looked back at the guests."What happened?" the Alpha asked."I don't know. They were fine before. Then suddenly they fell," Sebastian replied.In the distance, a woman could be seen walking quickly toward Herbert with a flushed face, holding back her anger and panic."What did you do to my husband, Alpha Albert?!" The question was accusatory. She was Luna Beatrice of the South River Pack. Her husband had been one of th
Albert's self-investigation did not go as expected. The scouts he ordered to search for information were, in fact, unsuccessful in providing the name of someone who posed a threat."I'm sorry, Alpha Albert." Jayden looked down in shame for not succeeding in giving maximum results for the task assigned to him.Albert took a deep breath. He would not blame Jayden for this unsatisfactory result. Apparently, the opponent this time was quite clever and cunning. Even from the CCTV camera footage, nothing suspicious was found."It's not your fault. No need to apologise," Albert said."What about the lab test results of the food and drinks?" asked Jayden."Nothing. There are no indications of poison in the food and drinks we provide," Albert replied. "However, the blood sample was positive for botulinum. Neurotoxin," he continued."Neurotoxin?" Jayden confirmed."That's right. Mike said it usually takes effect about 12 hours after exposure. Doesn't that mean they were exposed to the poison ou
Ryn gently caressed Albert's face. She gave the Alpha a warm smile, creating a sense of comfort in her lover."I have nothing to comfort you with but love," Ryn said.Albert's hazel irises scanned the beautiful face intently. The man let Ryn's soft fingers surf over whatever the girl wanted. No words, just a look with his eyes as permission."The responsibility that lies on your shoulders is heavy. I know that." Ryn lowered her touch from Albert's face to the man's shoulders. She briefly stroked it and rested her palm on the Alpha's chest. His face lifted slowly, meeting her gaze in a straight line. "Put all that fatigue behind you for a moment. Give your body and brain a chance to rest for a moment. I'm here, Albert. I'll do whatever it takes to ease the burden weighing you down," she continued as she nuzzled the Alpha's chest.Those delicate fingers gave her a soft, lulling touch. Then she undid the buttons of Albert's shirt one by one until the hair underneath reached the net. Ryn
Excitement swelled in the palace, welcoming the victory they had won. Applause and cheers flowed beautifully as the Alpha entered the court. Everyone was happy. Everyone celebrated the victory, though they also felt the loss of several pack members killed in battle. "Albert," said a voice over the din of the crowd. Judith broke the line of pack members and walked quickly to the Alpha. A worried look crossed her face when she saw Ryn unconscious in Albert's arms. "She's hurt," she commented once she reached Albert. Judith examined some of the wounds on the girl's face. "Bad enough to knock her out," Albert said. "Doctor Mike is still busy taking care of the injured pack members, and I see he's got a lot of injuries himself. I think I can help check on Luna Ryn while we wait for Doctor Mike," Judith said. "I'll take her to the room," Albert replied. Judith nodded and followed Albert, who took Ryn to the room. The Alpha laid Ryn on the bed carefully, not caring about the blood and
Clothes, claws, hands, and face were all covered in a thick red liquid. The stench of blood pierced the lungs. Corpses were strewn about like thousands of dead fish washed up on the shore. Sorrowful moans could be heard faintly from the souls separated from the bodies. Proof that the battle had taken many lives."Albert, watch out!"Hearing the warning cry, Albert turned his head. The Alpha looked at his worried-looking Luna. Ryn pointed at the oncoming enemy. Albert was not unaware that three Alphas were heading his way. He knew, but there was not the slightest intention to run. Albert nodded to Ryn and then looked back at the three Alphas approaching him. The Alpha's howls echoed in all directions, preparing to fight the three attacking Alphas.Undaunted, Albert welcomed the attacks from the three Alphas with open arms. Unarmed, relying solely on his physical strength. It was a very unfavorable condition, but it did not discourage him. Fighting one-on-one would be easy for him. Howe
One corner of Albert's lips lifted slowly. Ryn's burning enthusiasm also fueled his fire. He did not see the slightest fear in Ryn's eyes, which was very different from when the girl had her visions."I'm so lucky to have a Luna like you," Albert said proudly. The man then extended a hand, and Ryn took it. "Let's do this together," he continued.Hand in hand, Albert and Ryn exited the palace, striding wide to greet the oncoming enemy."I love seeing our Alpha and Luna," Dominic whispered to Jayden."They're the best Alpha and Luna pair I've ever met," Jayden replied."Yep! Totally agree!" Dominic snapped his fingers."The Moon Goddess never gets mates wrong," Jayden chimed in. "Let's not let our Alpha and Luna fight the enemy alone," Jayden invited.Dominic eagerly welcomed the invitation. The two men immediately set off, following Albert and Ryn, who had left earlier.When they arrived at the courtyard, Albert saw that his men were on standby. They set up barricades outside and insid
Hurried footsteps could be heard approaching. Albert and Jayden turned in the direction of the sound. One of the Warriors came to them with a serious look."Dom," Jayden greeted. "How are things outside?" Jayden asked. He knew the warrior hadn't come for mere pleasantries; he must have gotten a message from Sebastian.The man named Dominic stopped before the Alpha, saluted with a nod of his head, and then answered Jayden's question, "There's a lot of them. We need help to keep them from entering the palace grounds."The famous Golden Moon Pack warriors, as well as Sebastian, had already taken matters into their own hands to deal with the enemy. However, in reality, the number of opponents they had to face was beyond prediction. There were hundreds of werewolves moving against the Golden Moon Pack as if they had been prepared for the attack.A warrior facing ten people at once would be fine. However, they could remember the fact that there were Alphas also coming down to attack, who ha
Confession and atonement are the most beautiful things about ending a feud. Forgiving and accepting each other is another way to let go of the burdens that have been piling up in our minds.Albert has not fully accepted fate because, until this moment, he still cannot accept Lance as his younger brother. However, by taking into account the fact that Judith was his mother, he felt that his chest was much lighter. There was a sense of relief, like a heavy burden that had been lifted."What made you smile to yourself, hm?" asked Ryn.The girl had been watching Albert for some time now. The Alpha, who was sitting on the balcony, seemed to be daydreaming while occasionally smiling faintly.Ryn's question forced Albert out of his reverie. The Alpha blinks his eyes quickly while looking back at the girl."What are you doing there?" Albert asked.Ryn walked up to the Alpha. A small smile spread across the girl's lips as she felt the aura of happiness radiating from the Alpha's face. Behind Al
The three people sitting at the same table looked at each other. Ryn's answer seemed to confirm that the terrible incident happened in the Golden Moon Pack. As pack leader, Albert's mind immediately went to the incident during the coronation ceremony, where several of his guests had collapsed."I believe all of this is connected," Albert said."That's very possible, considering Ryn has experienced this before, and it's proven true," Judith said.Albert gritted his teeth. His hands were clenched tightly with emotion. If Ryn's vision were true, a great battle would be in his palace. Perhaps this was a sign the Moon Goddess had given them. So that Albert could prepare everything."Do you know when it will happen?" Albert asked Ryn.The girl shook her head. She could not find any clues about the exact time of the battle."I'm sorry," Ryn said regretfully."Not your fault," Albert replied. He turned to Judith and said, "Thank you for coming here.""No need to thank me. I didn't do anything
This emergency forced Albert to summon Judith to the palace. He believed that Judith was the one who knew the most about Ryn's visions."Don't worry! No matter how bad it is, we'll face it together." Albert kissed Ryn's forehead.The girl was still scared, even though Albert often assured her they would face any problem together. Ryn didn't want Albert to leave her side, even for a second.There was a knock on the door, and Albert was forced to let go of his girlfriend's embrace. He went to open the door."Mrs. Morrow is here, Alpha Albert," said a man, one of Albert's wolves."I'll see her soon," replied the Alpha.Albert quickly returned and told Ryn that the person they were waiting for had arrived. They hurriedly went to meet the waiting Judith."Judith!" Ryn half-ran over to the forty-year-old woman sitting on the sofa."Ryn," Judith replied.The woman stood up and greeted Ryn, who immediately hugged her tightly."What happened?" Judith stroked Ryn's back while glancing at Albert
Ryn gently caressed Albert's face. She gave the Alpha a warm smile, creating a sense of comfort in her lover."I have nothing to comfort you with but love," Ryn said.Albert's hazel irises scanned the beautiful face intently.
