The threatening letter had sent Ryn into a panic. The girl panicked, and without another thought, she ran out of the apartment. The girl pressed the elevator button repeatedly as if her actions would open the elevator doors quickly."Come on, come on!" Ryn muttered while squeezing the threatening letter in her hand.As soon as the elevator doors opened, Ryn rushed inside and immediately pressed the button for the lobby. She continued in the elevator, causing several people in the same elevator to look at her strangely. However, Ryn didn't care. The only thing on her mind right now was Lance. She had to get to the place quickly to save him.Upon arriving at the lobby, Ryn approached the building, standing by the door."Sir, do you know where 441 Vins Building is?" asked Ryn matter-of-factly.The security guard frowned."What are you looking for in that place? It's just an abandoned building that the developer abandoned years ago," said the man in the security uniform."Just answer my q
A cell phone ringing interrupted Albert and Jayden, discussing an important matter related to Drake Harmon. Albert reached into his pocket and pulled out a cell phone from inside. He looked at the name on the screen and answered the call."What is it?" Albert asked.The Alpha was silent, listening to what his interlocutor had to say. The man looked serious and occasionally furrowed his brow."I'll be there as soon as my business is done," Albert said after some time. "No, no, no. Just leave it like that. I'll talk to Dianne myself," he continued.After hearing his interlocutor's reply, Albert quickly ended the call."Who's calling?" asked Jayden.Albert turned his head briefly while typing a message on his cell phone. Then he resumed his steps, followed by Jayden next to him."Dianne came to the palace to meet with me regarding a werewolf who was killed at the boundary of our territory with the Shifter Moon Pack," Albert replied.Jayden's brow furrowed."Luna Dianne? She thinks we kil
"Doctor! We lost her!" one of the nurses exclaimed.Mike hurriedly swung his legs faster towards Ryn, lying weakly on the bed. The nurses quickly stepped aside, allowing Mike to check Ryn's condition. Mike did his job deftly. He checked the pulse on Ryn's wrist and detected nothing. Then he reached for the pulse in Ryn's neck and still found nothing. Until he finally lowered his head, trying to listen to the girl's heartbeat."Shit!" cursed Mike.The man then started CPR to restore Ryn's heartbeat. The doctor pressed on the girl's chest regularly, occasionally checking her pulse and the graph on the monitor screen."Defibrillator!" ordered the doctor."All right, Doctor!" replied the nurse.The nurse picked up the defibrillator and brought it closer to the bed. Mike made sure there were no metal objects attached to Ryn's body. Then, he started the next procedure. He used the defibrillator to restore the girl's heartbeat."Hang in there, Miss Ryn! Please, come back to us!" said Mike. "
Judith's attention was drawn to the ringing cell phone on the table. She put down the scissors and placed a flower in the vase. She saw Lance's name on the screen."Lance?" Judith's brow furrowed.She reached for her cell phone and answered the call."How was your day at the company, Lance?" greeted Judith warmly, even though Lance didn't see her."Good, Mom. There were many things I didn't understand, but the mentor explained everything very well," Lance replied."I'm so glad to hear that. I'm pretty sure you can do it," Judith said."It's all because of you, Mom," said Lance."Don't say that!" Judith waved a hand in front of her face as if Lance were really in front of her. "Oh, I almost forgot. Why didn't you tell me Ryn was coming here?" she asked."Ryn? She came to your unit?" Lance asked back in a curious tone."Hm. She just left. About ten minutes ago. You didn't know about that?" Judith asked."She didn't say anything to me," Lance replied. "Ah, I remember. She once asked abou
Judith's steps stopped when her net caught Albert's figure a few meters away. It wasn't that she didn't expect him to be there, but rather that she was organizing her heart to face her son. Judith knew that Albert had been looking for her for some time. She had heard from several people that Albert Dexter was searching for her all over Wolfspring. But today, she had indirectly come to the Alpha."Mom," Lance whispered as he touched Judith's arm.The woman's eyes blinked rapidly, breaking her gaze on Albert's."Is everything okay?" asked Lance."Yeah, everything's fine," Judith replied. "Come on," she continued, nodding her head toward Albert.Lance looked at the Alpha with a look of hostility. The heated relationship between the two made Lance need to lower his ego to get information about Ryn. He finally followed his mother to Albert and Jayden.Judith's gaze did not move from the Alpha as she slowly eroded the distance between them. A faint smile tugged at the corners of Judith's li
"I was negligent in caring for Ryn until she ended up here. I don't want the same thing to happen to you, Mom."The words that came out of Lance's mouth stunned Albert. The Alpha froze as a result of those words. It took some time for him to regain his concentration and speak."Mom?" muttered Albert in a voice only he could hear. "What do you call her?" asked the Alpha.Judith and Lance turned to Albert, waiting for the Alpha to say something."I heard you call her 'Mom'," Albert said.Lance rotated his eyeballs with a bemused expression. The young man curtly said, "So what, is that a big deal to you?"Albert scrolled his gaze at Judith, who looked a little pained. He knew Judith could give a more reasonable explanation than what Lance had just said. However, the woman never made a sound and only looked at Albert as if worried that her two sons would fight. This led Albert to believe that Judith kept their relationship a secret from Lance.Without the response Albert expected from Jud
"Because we have much more important things to talk about." Albert looked coldly at Judith.Personal matters were not Albert's priority. There were far more important things for him to talk to Judith about other than their relationship as mother and son who had no chemistry.Judith relaxed her shoulders while licking her lips. She could already guess what important thing Albert was referring to. The look in the man's eyes said it all. Judith knew Albert wanted to ask about the Bloodwolf's prophecy and curse."I know what you want to talk about. We can postpone that conversation. Right now, I need to catch up with Lance," Judith said.Albert looked away with a sour look. The Alpha looked back at Judith with a wry smile."Is that so?" he said sarcastically. "Aren't I your son too? The son you never gave the chance to know you, let alone earn your affection." Albert said coldly.Judith's eyes closed as pain filled her mind. Judith took a deep breath, opened her eyes and said, "I'm sorry,
Albert's hazel irises swayed slowly, scanning Judith's shaded face with a look that was hard to decipher. A few seconds passed, and Albert broke his gaze while licking his lips. When he refocused on his mother, the man's gaze turned cold."I don't need that advice. I need a way to break that damn prophecy," Albert said.Judith took a deep breath and smiled gently."I told you there is no way to break the prophecy, Alpha Albert. You're just looking for something in vain," Judith retorted."Really?" Albert's eyes narrowed. "Are you saying that because you've failed at it before?" Albert smiled a faint smile that seemed skeptical. He continued, "Don't measure other people's success by yours, Mother. Because others may not necessarily have the same misfortune as you."Albert's words struck Judith's heart. Although bitter, Judith had to admit that her son's words were true. Perhaps she was unlucky to have a cowardly Mate like Christian Dexter. Although Albert was Christian's son, they were
