LEA'S POV

There were seven chairs arranged around a rectangular dining table. Mrs. Paula sat on the second chair right in front of me. That left five other empty seats. One of which was the head of the family's section, which I believe belonged to Easton. I don't know who the others belong to, but there are only two of us here. Because the servants were standing firmly behind the closed door. They left us alone in privacy, a custom that made me feel unlucky.

Although I had met Easton's mother before, being alone with her in the dining room like this made me feel uncomfortable. The atmosphere between us felt tense and stiff, although there hadn't been a long conversation between us.

I forced a smile, even though it felt so stiff. "Why isn't Easton back yet?" I could only mutter in annoyance. Feeling curious because Easton promised to come back soon. He had been gone for an hour. And until now, there has been no sign that he will be back soon. Perhaps something was troubling him? It co

    LEA'S POVWhat Mrs. Paula said made a slice of the room freeze. I don't know if it was just me or if Easton was just staring at her coldly. I didn't understand what was going on between them. Because right now, both of them seemed unwilling to shift their gaze from each other so sharply. Like there was a match that could only be won if one of them weakened their gaze or just looked away. And amazingly, neither of them wanted to do so.Easton stood facing Mrs. Paula fully. "I've found my true eye. And that is, Lea." There was nothing Easton was trying to cover up. The man spoke straight without beating around the bush. Even so, I could feel Easton's big hand, which immediately grasped my hand gently and showed it to his mother. There was a peck on the back of my hand at that moment. It felt like the fire instantly spread to the surface so quickly.I swallowed slowly, clearly sensing that Madam Paula was now observing me and judging me from whatever angle. But I tried not to be provoked

    LEA'S POVI really didn't expect what Madame Paula would do. That woman didn't let go of me, and Easton didn't try to help me escape her either. And now, she was sitting in the car. She was waiting for me to get in and join her in there."What are you waiting for?" Mrs. Paula slightly removed her sunglasses to look at Eatson and me, who were still outside the car. Seeing that, I immediately got into the passenger seat along with Easton because we had no choice but to obey her wishes.Seeing me and Easton sitting quietly in the back, Mrs. Paula closed the front seat window and looked back with a satisfied smile. "Alright, we'll be leaving soon now."I had no clue about this, and I'm sure Easton did, too. The man chuckled and looked at his mother in disgust. "Mom, where are we going?"Mrs. Paula clucked loudly, then let out a long breath. "Of course, I want to spoil my future daughter-in-law."Although my eyebrows were knitted together in wonder at what she was going to do, there was no

    LEA'S POV The weekend is over, Monday is here, and the lazy days are over. Now, it's time to return to being productive and put laziness aside. There's a lot of work to be done and prioritized on this busy Monday. And so do I. I'm ready in my black and maroon work suit. I've also tied my hair up neatly. With a light dusting of powder and my favorite pink lipstick, I hurriedly walked out of my room and down to the first floor. My hand reached for my cell phone, and I looked at the bus route that crossed the Phoenix Reach area. As usual, I had to arrive before Easton. I didn't want to make him wait for me to finish all his work. "Ah, the bus will pass in five minutes." I was almost out of the main door when suddenly someone held my hand. When I turned around, Easton looked at me, confused. "Where are you going?" After confirming that the bus departure schedule had not been missed, I looked back at Easton's face confidently. "It's Monday. I'm going to work, of course." An annoyed

Now, there was only me here to be the queen with Conny, the alpha, who has become mine. She has been trapped and cannot escape anymore. The Dennison family, moreover, is still under my influence.

It was like a dream, and I woke up with difficulty breathing and a cold sweat.The whole business that Conny and their father had was in big trouble.

    JANE'S POV Yes, Mom was right. Maybe she could do something to fool Lea. All this time, that woman had been doing all the housework without getting paid. Let alone pay, not even praise. Lea never resisted or tried to say no. She was very obedient and followed everything her mom wanted. Even the work in the office, which should have been done by two or three people, was done by Lea alone and overtime for weeks. And once again, we benefited because Lea didn't get the salary she deserved at all. Then I cleared my throat and nodded. I started to walk out of Cony's office and closed the door. "Oh yes, you're right." "Then, how did you get to see her?" It was still a mystery. Because no one in our family knew where Lea lived and worked. Even when we followed Selena, Lea's best friend, she didn't show any signs that she knew where Lea was either. "Don't worry, I'll find an opportunity for you to meet Lea." Mom sounded confident. Although I had my doubts, I nodded anyway. Mom has never d

    JANE'S POVThe taxi stopped right in front of a huge skyscraper. The name 'Terra Nova' was emblazoned on the front of the building in large, striking letters. As I recall, the letters would light up at night so beautifully.I grunted in annoyance as I stepped down together with Mom. I clearly knew that this building belonged to Alpha Easton. "She should have lived a miserable life." I had always expected that Lea would be a lower-class worker who struggled because of her alpha position. She should be oppressed and work under a small company. Not being in a big building and being one of the employees in such a famous place.But he may be just a janitor, right? Considering that Dad didn't give her a letter of recommendation after leaving home. Despite years of office work, no one knew what Lea could do. So it's possible that now she's a lowly worker and dabbles in disgusting things."Please call Lea and tell her that I'm her mother." Without even the slightest pleasantries, Mom went str

    LEA'S POVNeither Jane nor her mother mattered to me at all. They were just annoying, as usual. And they foolishly thought that I had kept quiet out of fear. In fact, I did it because I respected my father. Who, as it turned out, was just as crazy as the two of them.However, when I turned to the area near the elevator, I was so surprised to find Easton there. He was huddled up and leaning against the wall, so I couldn't see him as I engaged Jane and her mother.Easton looked me right in the eye, with both eyebrows knitted together. "That's very kind of you to give them the invitation."I exhaled softly and looked back to where Jane and her mother were grumbling and walking out of the building area. "Oh, I planned something for them."Easton straightened up and stood beside me. Without a word, we walked hand in hand to the elevator to return to the top floor. "Yes, I believe in whatever you're planning."I turned my head and slowed my footsteps at Easton's side. "So, you're going to m

    **LEA’S POV**As Easton wished, I finally went out for a stroll. There were a few items I wanted to buy after seeing their stunning display on the cover of this week’s fashion magazine.One of them was a pair of brown boots with black laces from Gusy’s latest collection. They immediately caught my eye, especially since only a hundred pairs were made in each size. Luckily, I managed to snag a pair at the last second.“These are perfect,” I thought as I admired the exquisite details. They’d be great for casual outings—maybe even a picnic. Boots have always been my favorite, and I’ve always had a soft spot for new models that look this good.“Thank you, Miss Lea. We’ll have all your purchases sent to Phoenix Reach, as requested,” said the store clerk with a warm smile. I nodded and walked away, appreciating her polite and attentive service.But I wasn’t done shopping yet. I had a few more things on my list, including a new lipstick and makeup set I’d been eyeing. The reviews were fantast

    LEA'S POVI was still laughing when Easton said not to let him find me. The ice cream in my hand was about to melt, and I could only shake my head. I enjoyed playing chase with Eatson because it was a lot of fun.However, when the ice cream in my hand ran out and I turned around, I was shocked by Eatson's presence. He was already standing with his arms crossed over his chest, and his eyes gazed right at me flatly.I knew that I would be caught. I didn't expect it to be this soon. The phone call ended a few minutes ago, and my eyes were already here. I smiled, looking at Easton, who hadn't left his spot. Even when silent and doing nothing like this, Easton still looks handsome. Very handsome. "Why do you like testing my patience so much, Lea?" Easton's voice sounded annoyed, his eyebrows dipping down with a crumpled face. He walked over and carefully checked my head and other body parts.A long sigh escaped Easton's mouth. He massaged his head as he shook his head. "You know, what yo

    LEA'S POVThe news was so shocking that my mouth opened and closed silently. Easton's eyes were shining, and he kissed my hand repeatedly. While I wasn't sure what I had just heard. "So, I'm really pregnant?"Easton nodded, his smile expanding beautifully. I almost squealed, but I held back because my hand was covering my mouth to keep from screaming. Such news made my heart swell. My emotions were exploding like fireworks on New Year's Eve.I lowered my head, staring at my still-flat stomach. My hand moved and came down, rubbing the surface with emotion. "I'm going to have a baby." What a wonderful surprise! Moongoodess had given me a very special gift. I couldn't wait to tell her I was so happy for her."Are you happy?" asked Easton.I looked up, then nodded. The man etta[ smiled, then gave the back of my hand a small peck.

    Easton's POVLea was lying on the bed, unconscious. She collapsed while we still walked around enjoying the morning air on the hill. Her face looked so pale, and her temperature had dropped. Le seemed exhausted, whereas she had always had tremendous energy as an alpha female.I took a deep breath and rubbed Lea's forehead. My mind was racing, wondering what was going on. Could this all be an effect of the war we had been through? Could something have hit Lea while I was unconscious? Or, worst of all, I was the one who caused this. If anything terrible happened to Lea, I couldn't forgive myself. She was half of my life. She was everything to me. Seeing Lea helplessly made my heart feel sick and uncomfortable.My gaze shifted to Doctor Sean, who had just finished examining Lea's condition. "So, what happened to Lea?"I hoped that Lea would be fine and that she wasn't in severe pain. My forehead furrowed deeply. It had been some time since we had been inside this house. But there was n

There's no regret or other hurts, we can smile at each other without any burden.Like today, unexpectedly Easton prepared a surprise dinner right in front of his house. The spacious yard with many lush trees was transformed into a romantic dinner setting with candles beautifully scattered in various corners. A table covered in white cloth with delicious food awaited us.I could only laugh with my hand covering my mouth. Easton pulled out a chair for me. "What's all this? Why are you making such an effort?" I said, laughing. Truly, Easton is completely unpredictable with what he will do next.Easton smiled gently. The man was dressed in a black suit with neatly combed hair. His perfume spread, making me feel so captivated by him. "A little surprise for my beautiful mate. It's been a while since we had dinner outdoors."Ah, that's right

    EASTON’S POVThey’ve gathered here just as I asked. The doctor who has been overseeing my condition in the pack, Dr. Sean, is also here, along with my mother and, of course, my mate, Lea. It’s not without reason that I’ve called these important people together. I need to confirm something after waking up from my long sleep. According to Lea, I had been unconscious and unresponsive for three days. And now, my body feels much lighter. If my suspicions are correct, this will be very good news for me.Dr. Sean holds a file in his hand, and I can see him glancing back and forth between the notes he’s taken. His brow furrows as he seems to think deeply before giving a small nod. After setting the notes down on the table, he clears his throat. "It appears that the curse Alpha Easton has been living with has disappeared."One short sentence, but it immediately makes Lea, sitting beside me, straighten up. I can feel her excitement, though she doesn’t show it outwardly. "Disappeared?" She doub

    LEA'S POVEaston sat on the bed after I handed him a glass of water to soothe his throat. His dry lips no longer looked as parched as before. His eyes now focused on me, gazing deeply, filled with a glimmer of concern as vast as the ocean.Easton looked at me intently, one of his hands gently touching my cheek. "I tore it that day." He softly caressed the scar that had faded entirely, a scar caused by Easton when he lost consciousness during the battle."You must have been in pain, and it was my doing." Easton’s eyes, usually firm, now appeared fragile. "I should have protected you there. But instead, I hurt you with my own hands."I shook my head, holding Easton's hand on my cheek. "It wasn’t your fault, Easton."I hadn’t finished speaking, but Easton shook his head. "But I’m the one who hurt you. You bled because of my claws. You should have been more careful."I shook my head again, disagreeing with Easton as I looked deeply into his eyes. "It was just a small wound, not even enoug

    LEA'S POVIt's already the third day since the doctor decided to keep observing Easton’s condition. Now, I’m buried in a pile of documents that need to be completed quickly due to the overwhelming amount of work. I’ve taken over his duties as Alpha, handling all of Easton’s responsibilities left unattended while unconscious. This includes pack-related matters and the job at the company where I’ve been serving as his secretary.“Take these,” I said, handing Leo over some documents I’d just reviewed. Easton's beta stood in front of me, taking everything I handed over. He’d also placed some new files on the desk, which I needed to finish by tomorrow at the latest.Leo nodded slightly. “Thank you, Luna Lea.” He straightened up while I returned to the remaining documents. Lunchtime had passed, and I’d just finished my meal at the desk. I figured going out would be a waste of time, so I ate here and got back to the endless work.But Leo hadn’t left yet. He was still standing there. I paused

    LEA’S POVIt has been three days since that last fight. Easton still hasn't opened his eyes; there is no movement at all from his body. There are no signs indicating he will wake up anytime soon. He remains deep in his sleep, and the energy that usually radiates so strongly from him has vanished, no longer shining with the intensity I used to feel every day. This room, which usually feels spacious and comfortable, has now turned eerily silent and empty. Even though it's just Easton and me here, this silence feels more oppressive and more terrifying. Only I can gaze at him, touch him, hoping for even the slightest sign of life from him. But there is none. He keeps his eyes closed in a frightening calm as if time has stopped around him. The morning sunlight streams through the wide-open window, flooding the room with warm light, yet Easton remains unmoved. There’s not even the slightest indication that he is disturbed by the light, which usually makes him frown. I approach him, sitt
