Rena felt her cheeks heat up from Madam Morin's tight slap. It's also possible that the corners of her lips are bleeding a little, as evidence that she can taste salty.

"I didn't expect you to be this brutal, Rena!" shouted Madam Morin holding Rena's ear. "Sarah, take Wendy to her room!" Madame Morin ordered when she saw Wendy's pale face and breaths still gasping for air.

"Are you trying to kill your friend, huh?!" Shaking Rena's shoulders, it made her dizzy for a moment.

"Please, Madam. Stomach nausea." She felt like throwing up when her body was shaken hard. Since waking up, Rena is not feeling well and has felt feverish.

"Did I not teach you from a young age to respect everyone? Do you need me to teach you one more time, huh?!" shouted Madam Morin.

"Please, Madam, forgive me." Her eyes were hot from the pain in her head.

Morin, who let go of Rena, immediately rubbed his hands on the shirt. "I forgive you this time. Don't let Luna Irene know everything. I've covered enough of your carelessness in front of her." Madam Morin left Rena, who was still leaning against the wall.

A man turning twenty-eight years old stared at the expanse of snow ahead. Switzerland is one country that has an attraction because of the eternal snow in the Alps. Tourists always visit a country because they want to ski or ride a gondola and enjoy nature from the top of the mountains.

Bennedict Schaacio is a tall man with slightly curly hair and slightly tanned skin from frequent sun exposure. For almost ten years, he had lost track of his sister, the last time he was with his sister was at the border between Germany and Belgium. His mother and father ordered him to quickly run away from his territory because a hunter knew the real identity of his family.

Remembering that made Ben's heart sink. He could not see his parents anymore, let alone take care of his beloved sister. He had been stopping in all cities and even several countries for the past ten years, but he had received no information. His sister seemed to have been swallowed up by the earth. He didn't even know if his sister was still alive or not.

Ben shook his head. He was sure his brother was okay.

Rena approached Irene in the middle-aged woman's room. By knocking a few times, Irene answered it from inside. "You called me, Luna?" Rena asked when she saw Luna Irene taking some clothes from her closet.

"Here." Irene gave Rena the clothes she was holding, "I want you to help me do some of my preparations tomorrow."

"You want to travel?" asked Rena looking at Luna Irene.

Luna Irene just smiled. "My husband took me to Austria."

Rena widened her eyes.

"What happened to you?" asked Luna Irene, seeing Rena's slightly stiffened face.

"It's okay," she squeaked, folding her clothes and putting them in the suitcase.

"Rena," called Irene. She saw Rena's blushing face. She cupped her face gently, feeling the slightly hot temperature. "You are sick?"

Rena, who was asked with Luna Irene like that, just shook her head. "No, I'm fine."

With a smile, Rena showed that she was in a normal state. After that incident, she tried to tidy up her body again so as not to make everyone suspicious, including Luna Irene, who always watched her silently.

"But your body is a little warm," explained Luna Irene, still in disbelief.

"Aren't our people destined to have temperatures above normal, Luna?" Rena's smile was reassuring.

"If you are sick, then rest. I will take care of it myself." Luna Irene couldn't bear to see Rena sadly staring at her. But how else did she feel Rena needed a break.

"I'm healthy," explained Rena.

"I said rest!" Luna Irene's sharp eyes looked at Rena sharply, making the woman give up and say goodbye.

Unexpectedly, Romeo was right there behind the pillar.

All she knows is that Romeo will make her heart even more unruly. She prefers to leave the tall man. Rena was deliberately looking for a way that was a bit away from Romeo, so she couldn't get close to the man. It was too risky, especially with the incident that made her very embarrassed. But, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Romeo following her. Romeo was already wearing different clothes than this morning.

"What is it?" Finally, Rena turned to face Romeo, still following her behind.

Romeo stopped his movements when he heard the voice interrupted. His brow furrowed mockingly.

"If you want to judge me too, you can do it tomorrow, Beta." Rena's tired tone made Romeo frown even more. Without hearing a reply from Romeo, Rena left the man, which she didn't know what to do. Let Romeo do what he wants to do.

She drank water to quench her thirst. The atmosphere on Saturday was nothing special, according to her. Suppose others will do activities such as shopping and even pampering the body in the city. But Rena didn't.

Yes, they have their schedule. Everyone will be given freedom on Saturdays and Sundays without any palace duties if they will be busy on weekdays because there are visits by essential guests from various countries or other events.

Rena rolled up her long shirt to her elbows. The cream-colored knit sweater with a large size makes it comfortable, especially in these circumstances. Rena also tied her hair to be better.

Romeo saw Rena from a distance. He 'a little' liked Rena's appearance like this. With casual clothes and jeans covering the woman's long legs, don't forget the hair tied up as long as it makes Romeo's eyes not blink.

Honestly, he didn't like Rena wearing maid clothes because the maid outfit uses a knee-length skirt and clothes that are a little tight, showing the woman's curves.

Ah, Romeo hit his head. What's wrong with his brain? It really can't be controlled.

The man approached Rena, still standing in the pantry with his back to her. He took the glass Rena had used and filled it back with water.

Rena, who already knew that when Romeo was still following her, made herself press hard not to respond. But Romeo's actions besides her were genuinely shocking. Romeo drank the same glass as herself!?

The woman looked at Romeo, who was also looking at her, although she could see Romeo's Adam's apple was still up and down from the gulp. Rena swallowed her saliva. Why is this man so seductive? She pressed against her pounding chest. This close Romeo was in front of her.

Romeo put the glass in the sink without taking his eyes off Rena. He touched the ends of the long hair that covered the woman's face behind her ear. "You can wash it already." Romeo left Rena, who was still frozen.

Damn it!

Rena looked at the only object in the sink. With a wry smile, he did his job.

She clapped her hands on her shirt when she felt everything was in order. Her brow furrowed as she felt something in her sweater pocket. She reached into it and made her even more confused when a shiny object was in her hand. She remembered very well that she had never had such a beautiful bracelet.

Her gaze glanced around. There was no way this thing had appeared by itself, yet when she changed her clothes, she remembered that there was nothing in her pocket.

Her cheeks puffed up, remembering Romeo's strange attitude earlier. Or maybe the guy? Rena walked back to her room while stroking the beautiful bracelet in her hand.

***

The hands that have been decorated with bracelets have made Rena too focused on struggling. Is Romeo willing to accept it?

Her lips sucked.

"He's so sweet." Shine, Rena's wolf, commented. For some reason, the wolf figure rarely appears and sits there, enjoying.

"Just like you," Rena said pleasantly, making Shine snort in amusement.

A knock on the door startled Rena. She quickly hid her bracelet under a long shirt that almost covered half of her palm.

"Are you… resting?" Gania's awkward smile at the door made Rena nod.

"Is there anything I can help you with?" Rena asked.

Gania's smile grew wider when she heard Rena's question. "I want to talk with you. I'm bored here alone. They're all gone." Gania grabbed Rena's arm and took her to the palace garden.

"You're not going with them?" Rena sat on a park bench, making Gania couldn't help but follow her.

"They are evil, Rena, especially Wendy. They're spreading rumors." Her anger exploded, making the woman, three years older than Rena, blush.

Rena just laughed faintly.

Gania, was a new member of this palace about two months ago. According to the story, she was eager to serve Alpha and Luna and enter the palace.

"I saw you earlier. Have they always been like that to you?" Gania looked at Rena, who was still looking at the garden.

"Why do you want to know?"

Gania was surprised by Rena's answer. She seemed uneasy.

"Never mind, after all, I did that because I was innocent." Rena leaned her back on the head of the chair.

"If you do the truth, keep it up even though the whole world thinks badly of you," said Rena looking at Gania, who smiled sincerely at her. The woman is beautiful, Rena, who, as a woman, is also very jealous of Gania.

"Do you want to go have time off with me next week? We are going to the city to buy clothes," said Gania.

Rena, who heard the woman's invitation grew silent. She hasn't been out of the palace for a long time. The last time when Luna Irene was invited was four months ago. "You invite me?"

Gania's enthusiasm makes Rena sure that the woman is not playing with her words. "Okay."

Screams of surprise and the squeeze of her hands made Rena widen. Her heart also seemed to plummet to the ground as her eyes fell on Gania's wrist resting on her hand. She looked at Gania, who was still smiling at her sincerely.

Forcefully she returned Gania's smile stiffly and withdrew her hand. Her hands clenched.

How evil is that man?

Gania was finally able to sit quietly and leaned her body on the bench while looking ahead. "Thank you, Rena."

While those who were spoken to smiled sadly, she quickly removed the bracelet that had been attached and put it back in her shirt pocket. She smoothed her sleeves so she wouldn't be suspicious of Gania.

Their bracelets are the same, just a different color—a combination of heart and flower shapes. Gania's is utterly white, while Rena's is white and brown. She tried to normalize her ragged breathing. She held the tightness in her chest that was stifling her breath.

"Your bracelet is beautiful," Rena said as if full of interest. Just let Gania treat her the same as any other woman. At least she wanted to prove something.

Gania held her hand and stroked the shiny object when it hit the light, "Beta Romeo gave it."

    Sunday, Early Autumn. Eliminating fatigue also gives a positive aura to other people. It's that easy. Rena should have never shut herself down because of the loss of her family.

Rena glanced at the man handsome face beside her that had been watching her. "Is there something wrong with my face?" Rena looked at that face.

Was what this man said true? She smiled. "I hope we can always be like this in the future." Rena, who heard those words, blushed even more. She rarely interacts this intensely with men. She was especially sitting side by side. "Why do you wish that?" Rena wants to start everything from scratch and start as

    Rena never imagines it dealing with blood-sucking creatures. She also never refused not to be afraid to face the immortals, whose age could be more than hundreds of years. Because according to Rena, if the vampire has targeted its prey, it will not be released at that time. Rena, who saw Romeo's action pushed hard against the vampire man's body, widened her eyes. She doesn't know if Romeo is that strong and only executes using one hand. Channeling the fear that radiated from her body made Rena feel a firm embrace. Rena felt Romeo's sharp glare to keep calm and trust her, but it was no avail. Rena hid her face in Romeo's chest. Her body shook violently, especially when she heard the dry leaves stamping where the man was hit. Her face looked up to see what he felt was getting more uncomfortable. "Beta Romeo." The sound that came out of her mouth was just a mumble that made Romeo understand. "N—no… no… no!" Rena's shrill scream made the night animals that seemed to be peeking fly eve

    Rena cried, lamenting the fate she had felt for the past two days. She separated from her older brother, whose parents assigned her to look after her. I do not know how many kilometers she had walked through the forest to seek help. Her stomach was already sore. Only forest fruits were able to fill the void. She was even more afraid because she had seen other creatures in the forest several times and luckily managed to hide. She did not want to be food for all of them. She wants to live and meet her brother someday. The growl made Rena's conservative attitude tested again. She was running away without looking back. But suddenly, her legs were pulled violently from behind, making Rena fall, but she didn't dare to scream. Her hand reached for a grip and couldn't. Rena was drawn more and more and went for the dry leaves as a handle. And understand that she's finally caught. "Please don't," Rena whispered as her eyes were still closed.

    Rena had been in the hospital for two days, and Jordan, who takes care of her. Even the man did not hesitate to spend the night there too. After an embarrassing incident that Rena herself doesn't know how to tell, she only remembers falling asleep in the garden and the voice of Madam Morin waking her up. She saw Madam Morin carrying a black bucket and pouring all the contents into her body. She, who was cold after that, fell asleep in the room peacefully without wanting to listen to the noise outside. Rena had asked Jordan what was going on, but the man's answer was unsatisfactory. "Gania saw you enter the room after being scolded by Madam Morin. I knocked on your door, but there was no answer. You passed out." Yes, that's how Jordan explained. She couldn't help but thank you for worrying about him, considering that all the pack members didn't care about him. "Jordan," Rena called Jordan, who was still playing with his cellphone on the sofa where the man was sleeping. "You can go

    Sitting at the end of the cliff with a view of the orange sky in the afternoon makes men with curly hair smile. Let alone the sound of the waterfall below there adds to the tranquility of nature. "Still lamenting your stupidity, huh?" The noise of interruption made Romeo stand up and energetic, for who would dare to interrupt his time. "You crossed the borderland!" Romeo firmly saw a man in a black robe who was still leaning on the trunk of a tree. The contemptuous look that the man put out made Romeo chuckle and still behave misgiving. Why does this man always interfere with his life? "I say once again, get out of my territory!" The cold attitude he gave out made all his opponents tremble. But that doesn't apply now. "I didn't enter your territory. Look!" The man pointed at the big golden-leaved tree. A different tree than others. A large golden scratch encircled the tree's trunk and a gaping hole. The scratches were like golden ink, and those immortal beings could only read '

How Can a Jordan give certainty to a woman whose origin is unclear? Her mouth clenched tightly as Jordan's face slowly approached her. The fragrance that emanated from the man's luxurious perfume made Rena clench her hands. Her cheeks are still cupped, and her eyes are not separated from the sharp brown bead. Smelling the scent that is getting smelled makes Shine that is more rebellious. "Fuck you, Rena. You still have Romeo!" Shine always reminded me of before, until the distance of how many centimeters Rena finally looked away. Let Jordan kiss her hair. It made Jordan let go of Rena and scratch his nape that didn't itch. "I'm sorry for being presumptuous." Rena was still silent, but her eyes were staring at the silhouette of someone who had probably seen the activities of the two of them. The curly-haired m

    Of the various things that made Rena confused, she found that many people had come to her room. A stranger in her eyes. Maybe if you count, the number of people in this room is more than twenty people, including men of the same height as her husband. The big man stood there in the corner of the room and in front of the door. She looked at her husband, who was now wearing a sad face. The man was beside her holding her hand tightly. "By the Moongoddes, you are so beautiful!" An older woman came and cupped Rena's face. There was a longing in her eyes that couldn't be hidden. "You have grown into a beautiful woman, Dear." Rena could only grin. She looked around again. But then she knew that this woman, as well as the older man beside the woman, were the ones who stood out the most. "Sorry, I don't know you," Rena moaned softly. But those words made everyone in the room gasp. Did she speak wrong? "Luna ..." Romeo said quietly, making Rena immediately shudder. Luna? So right, what's

    Romeo stuttered with sentence after sentence his wife threw. Like getting a sharp stab right in the pit of his heart. It's suffocating. What he feared finally happened. Little by little, Rena finally knows her true identity. Little by little, the memory finally came back. "Listen to me first," said Romeo, still trying to be able to ask for help, understanding from the look in his eyes. However, he could see how the look in Rena's gaze turned into a very disappointed one. "You lied to me, Beta Romeo? You were never honest with me about how my past was. What memories have been lost? What they did to me in the past. About who Luna Irene and Alpha Jonathan are. I don't understand at all!" Rena's breath hitched from making too much noise. She then threw the paper in front of her husband. "I thought you would take care of me. But it turns out I was wrong. You turned out to be hiding something big enough that I couldn't even move." "Rena…" Romeo sighed tiredly. He didn't want to talk ab

    It looks like Romeo can't leave Rena alone or let her think all kinds of things. The proof is that Romeo has repeatedly found Rena talking about her past. This made Romeo even more anxious. Not for what? But because he is afraid that Rena's memory will return and stay away from him. He was worried that his wife would recall the dark past buried long ago. "What are you doing?" Romeo asked while hugging Rena from behind. The woman had been busy recycling and had not greeted Romeo in the living room for almost an hour. "I'm making snacks," said Rena curtly. "Or what do you want me to do? You want steak, or do you want something low in calories?" Romeo shook his head. The man inhaled the crook of Rena's neck and squeezed the young girl's stomach. "I do not want anything. I want to be alone with you all day." Rena stopped kneading her hands in the dough. "It's very bumpy. Haven't you been busy with your business lately? Last week you ignored me and preferred to look at the laptop scr

    Days turn to months. Months turn to years. It is now two years of Rena and Romeo's marriage. In this second year, they were truly blessed by Moongoddes. Romeo was so patient with the childish mood that Rena gave. The woman acts like a child who is losing milk. Just look now, the young woman sulked because Romeo did not respond to her words at all. Romeo did it on purpose, not because the man himself was busy with files that had to be closed for tomorrow. "Wait a minute, Honey." Romeo was still fiddling with his glasses when he felt Rena's breath in the crook of his neck—sniffing like a kitten begging for more attention. The scent of flowers that Rena gave off made Romeo almost die from holding back. "If you continue like this, my file will never be finished." Romeo fiddled with his fingers on the laptop, occasionally scrolling the mouse because he felt something was a little off. "You're always like that! You always ignore me when in front of your work. You just cheated on the el

    [ Mount Fuji - Japan ] This is already their second day here, enjoying such a fantastic destination. The Land of the Rising Sun makes tourists feel at home here. Look at Rena! She was playing with the flowers in Lake Kawaguchi. The pink phlox plants made the riverbank look very pretty. "Luckily, we came here during the festival." Rena expressed her pleasure. Fuji Shiba-sakura Festival is a favorite flower festival in Japan that is held every year. The festival will last for one month as long as the shibazakura flowers bloom. Romeo repeatedly aimed at Rena with his smartphone. Make the woman stylish in such a cute way. "I can take your picture from here." An older woman wearing a Polaroid camera approached Romeo. "Come on. I'll take a picture." Even though the woman is a native of Mount Fuji, her English accent is perfect. Maybe this is because she often crosses paths with tourists. Rena put her arm around Romeo's waist and vice versa. They followed the instructions of this impr

    Rena was even more surprised when she didn't find her virginal blood on the bed. Isn't every virgin there must be blood or a small spot on it. However, on the white mattress, there was nothing. "How long will you keep staring at this bed, Rena?" Romeo came and smelled very good. The man had taken a bath first because he was trying to calm the still dominant lust. The man hugged Rena from behind and stroked her stomach in a circular motion. "What do you think? Our hot romance last night?" Rena's cheeks heated up with the frontal remarks Romeo made. "Ah no. I wonder why there's no blood there." Romeo's brow furrowed. "Why should there be blood?" Rena didn't reply. Romeo either doesn't know it or feels it is unimportant. But according to Rena, of course, it is essential. Proud of her for still being sealed and open only to her mate. "Why should there be blood, hm?" Romeo turned Rena around to face him. "Because I'm a virgin." After saying that, she chose to clean the sheets

    Rena is still sobbing because the man on the bed hasn't opened his eyes since an hour ago. Stupid man who almost lost his life in a fight with Brother Ben. "Never mind, Rena, he will never die. He has nine lives." Ben leaned against the wall. His hair was still wet from Romeo's crazy-sounding rescue. The man who was a victim of a love enslaved person tried to convince Ben by jumping into a flowing river—proving to Ben that he doesn't mess with his words. But stupidly, it was because the imperfect legs hindered movement and instead became cramped, making Romeo unfocused and carried away by the river current. Yes, that's stupid Romeo, who doesn't understand his condition. Don't equate it with before, when the man was still standing firmly on his two feet. "It's all because of you!" Rena rebuked. "You made Romeo death-defying." "He's the only one who is stupid for loving you too much and not seeing the situation. His legs are crippled, but he can bet a lot to collect his pride." R

She had never seen a man so dominant in her life but could make her heart flutter. She had known him for almost half a year—the man is known as Romeo Riley. At first, all she knew was that the man often came to the house to see Ben. However, over time it was he who became closer. "Your cheeks are red." The man was already in front of Rena with his smooth hair. Don't forget the beard that adorns the man's chin, making him even more masculine. "Yes." Rena smiled awkwardly. She didn't dare look into Romeo's sparkling eyes. "Don't look at me like that." Rena just wanted to drown now. Romeo always pays attention to her and makes her awkward. "Want to go for a walk?" Rena nodded quickly, which made Romeo laugh softly. The woman cursed her stupidity even more because she was too happy to enjoy the bubbling euphoria. "I'll ask Ben's permission first." "Not! Ben isn't home.

    The euphoria in the Lightcrown Claws Pack is even more lively because the Beta they love the most can finally open their eyes and be present in their midst right now. It doesn't matter if the current Romeo has an imperfect physique. His feet, which could not thoroughly tread, did not make the people look down on him. However, if it is pitted against ordinary people, Romeo will win. "Congratulations on your success, Son." Jovial, as the biological father of Beta, gave him several words.
