Ariella's POV

I started in surprise, bending slightly and using my hair to cover my face as best as I could.

Damien shouldn't know it was me in the car; he could only make out the outline of a woman.

Matthew immediately unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car.

"I'm not available right now. Take a taxi back by yourself."

He looked at Damien, exuding an authoritative aura and a chill that demanded obedience.

Damien hesitated for a moment, then glanced again at me sitting in the back seat. Curiosity got the better of him as he asked, "Uncle Matthew, where are you going? There's a woman in the back seat, isn't there? Who is she?"

My heart was pounding, afraid that Matthew might tell him something.

After hearing his question, Matthew hesitated for a moment but said nothing. Damien immediately seized the opportunity, his hand on the door handle.

"Aunt, if you won't say, I'll just see for myself!"

The next second, the door was pulled open. I quickly covered my face, but it was too late

    Ariella's POVI couldn't convince Erika. Over the next few days, she was in high spirits, dragging me around the streets to shop for the most beautiful dress to attend Damien and Kiley's engagement party."Ella, everyone will be amazed by your beauty! I promise!" she said with a glowing complexion, her eyes sparkling with confidence. As for me, I was exhausted from being pulled from one clothing store to another, my feet aching terribly."Erika, can we take a break? I see a café up ahead. How about we go in and sit down?" I asked."No! Ella, you need to cheer up.""Sweetie, I'm really too tired. This is the last store, okay? Let's shop and then go back home."Erika pouted and said, "Alright. Then we'll come back and shop tomorrow.""Deal."We entered a gown shop. It was a high-end boutique offering custom-made clothing, with exquisite and unique designs that came with hefty price tags.Erika was instantly captivated. She picked out a few dresses for me to try on, and if they fit, she

    Ariella's POVThe clerk was extremely embarrassed and said, "But...""But what?" Kiley pressed. "I said I like this dress. Wrap it up for me."The clerk, trembling and red-faced, replied, "Miss Leavett, this dress isn't in your size..."At this, several clerks covered their mouths, trying to suppress their laughter. I sized up Kiley. She seemed to have put on a lot of weight recently, probably due to her pregnancy.Kiley's face turned red with anger, and she immediately stepped forward to slap the clerk and snatch the dress from her hand."Get out of the way! You insolent woman. I'm pregnant, did you know that? You're slandering a pregnant woman!"The clerk covered her face, crying as she ran off.At this point, the woman who had come with Kiley spoke up, "Kiley, don't be like that. This dress really isn't suitable for you. Look, that pink one is quite nice. Why don't you try that one? After all, you're Damien's bride, and you'll be the center of attention. Unlike some women, who only

    Ariella's POVI pressed the answer key, and Matthew's voice came through the line."Ella."His voice was as melodious as ever, deep and resonant like the sound of a cello, utterly captivating.I took a deep breath and said, "Don't call me Ella. I have nothing to do with you."As soon as I finished speaking, I subconsciously clenched my fists. I hadn't realized the sadness and reluctance in my own tone, slightly trembling, but mostly resolute.A faint sigh seemed to come from the other end of the phone. Matthew said, "Did you receive those dresses? Do you like them?"I shook my head stubbornly and said, "I don't need you to send me these things. I'll find a way to pay you back as soon as possible."After saying those words, I hung up the phone, and my hand, still gripping it tightly, trembled slightly.Looking at the brand new phone, my heart ached involuntarily.What did Matthew really think of me? A mere plaything to be manipulated at will, or a sexual object to satisfy his desires?

After confirming my invitation, he offered to park the car for us while we went inside.I looked around and saw luxury cars and guests dressed in extravagant gowns everywhere. However, as soon as I got out of the car, I instantly drew the attention of many."My goodness, who is that lady? She's so beautiful.""I don't know. Is she the daughter of an Alpha?""You go and chat with her to find out.""So beautiful."As Erika and I walked towards the hotel entrance, I heard countless whispers of admiration around me."Ella, now do you believe me? I wasn't exaggerating. You're so beautiful!" Erika said excitedly to me.I smiled and

If you're willing, you can stay with me from now on. Give me a child. I will raise him well and train him to be my heir," he said slowly.He stood up, pressing me against the wall urgently.I tried to push him away with all my might, but I couldn't move him, so I had to give up. I stared at him, enunciating each word, "Damien, we've broken up. Today is your engagement party. Your fiancée is just downstairs, and she's pregnant. How can you be so shameless to say such things?"He was stunned for a moment but quickly regained his composure. He sniffed the scent of my neck and embraced my waist. "Ella, I don't love her. It's you I love! I can hire the best doctors for your mother's illness, just as long as you're with me."He tried to reach his hand under my skirt. I couldn't take it anymore and pushed him away with all my

    Ariella's POVMatthew shielded me with his body, supporting the door with one hand, and asked Damien, "Is there something you need?"Damien was taken aback when he saw Matthew. "Uncle? What are you doing here?""I have some business to take care of, and it's more convenient to make calls here.""Oh... Uncle, you can use my private room to make calls. It's more comfortable there.""No, this is fine."Damien poked his head in, curious about what was behind Matthew. He asked, "Uncle, did you see a woman going downstairs just now?"Matthew replied coldly, "I didn't see anyone."At that moment, the elevator arrived with a ding. Damien stuck out his tongue and, no longer suspicious, walked towards the elevator. "Alright then."Only then did I let out a long sigh of relief. I looked up and saw Matthew holding the door with one hand, his veins bulging prominently.Damien had pushed the door with both hands, but couldn't budge it at all, showing how strong Matthew was."Alpha Matthew, thank yo

    Ariella's POV"I'm here, uncle!"Damien finally squeezed his way out of the crowd, followed by a woman who was dressed up and made up. Her hair was messy, and her lipstick was gone. It was obvious that she and Damien had just done something in private.I laughed coldly and looked at Damien with a mocking expression. Kiley seemed to realize something and glared at the woman before turning back to Matthew and crying out, "Uncle, Ariella wants to kill me! She pushed me over!"Matthew looked at Kiley with disgust and said to Damien, "Control your woman. I just witnessed you trying to slap her, and she was defending herself when she fought back. Lying in front of so many people is truly eye-opening."Kiley immediately froze, not knowing what to do. At this moment, Damien's mother stepped forward. She ran over to help Kiley up and pointed at me, scolding, "Ariella, you slut! You say you didn't push Kiley, do you have evidence?""Yes, I do."The deep voice of a man came from the crowd. Matth

He was driving across a sea bridge.I looked out the car window and was instantly stunned. The beauty outside was beyond words. The fiery sunset illuminated the entire city, and the golden light of the setting sun penetrated the clouds, casting a dazzling glow on the glass walls of the skyscrapers.Matthew's voice sounded low, pulling me back to reality."I looked for the kind of herb you wanted, but it's out of stock in the market. However, I inquired with a very well-known doctor. There's another way to treat your mother's illness."I looked at his profile and asked, "What way?""You'll find out if you promise to come home with me," he said, not even looking at me, keeping his eyes on the road.I knew what he meant, and I was torn, clenching my fists. My nails dug into the flesh of my palm, but I didn't feel any pain."Okay."After a while, I nodded.He turned the car around

As soon as I got out of the car, I couldn't help but marvel."How beautiful," I stood at the summit, looking down at the entire city, muttering to myself.The golden light of the setting sun enveloped the entire mountaintop. The sky slowly turned a deep blue, tinged with a faint purple, heralding the gradual arrival of night.Numerous luxury cars were parked at the entrance of the resort. The guests, dressed in opulent and elegant attire, alighted and walked together towards the interior of the resort.As I passed by others, I occasionally heard compliments about how nicely I was dressed. Each time, I turned around to smile and nod, offering my thanks."Let's go in," Parker extended his hand, indicating for me to hold onto him as we entered.I didn't refuse and politely took his arm.As we walked

I couldn't help but stroke my chest and neck, reliving the gentleness he had given me.He said he loved me, and I heard it clearly.I knew I could never refuse him, only drawn to him. Time and again, I've tried to keep my distance, but I've always failed. A fierce desire within me compelled me to draw near to him, time after time.After returning to the dormitory, I took a bath and quickly fell asleep once I lay down.Early the next morning, I went to the hospital. My mother had been discharged and had returned to the wooden house with my aunt.

Her eyes were glistening with a hint of tears, shimmering in the moonlight, looking absolutely beautiful."Darling, I love you," I said, embracing her and kissing her tenderly.Then, I gently placed her on the leather sofa and took care of her, making sure she was cleaned up.She quickly got dressed, the flush on her face fading away. She looked clean and beautiful, like an innocent and enchanting fairy.Although my desire was not entirely sated, I had to suppress it, knowing that this was a restaurant's private room."Ella, I'll have the driver take you back. I need to see Parker," I said.I wrapped my arm around her waist and we started walking out."Mm," she nodded, "Thank you, Alpha Matthew."She was always so formal with me, something that bothered me a bit, but there was nothing I could do about it.I

    Matthew's POVLooking at Ariella's shocked face and her trembling hands, I instantly understood how important her brother was to her.However, I didn't want to tell her how brutally I had dealt with those rouges. After searching for her brother for a week, I had Parker and my Gamma lead a group to annihilate the rouges. These people were utterly despicable and deserved to be dealt with long ago.She was stunned for a moment, but quickly regained her composure. I could feel her slight agitation as she asked me, "When can I see my brother?"Her brother was actually quite severely injured and still under treatment. I lied to her so she wouldn't worry. I had already arranged for the best wolf doctor to treat her brother, so he should recover soon."It's not certain yet. My people are still negotiating with the rouges. But don't worry, your brother will be fine. The rouges won't dare to harm him anymore. I'll also send someone to protect him."She nodded, still worried. Seeing this, I adde

I'll talk to Jessica.""I'll go with you."Soon, we were at the door of Jessica's office.Kiley knocked on the door."Come in."It was Jessica's voice.Upon seeing Kiley enter, Jessica slightly furrowed her brow. I motioned for Kiley to go in alone, and I listened from outside."Jessica, I'm sorry. I want to ask you to withdraw the dismissal for Ariella," Kiley muttered, seemingly very afraid of angering Jessica."Kiley, are you insane? How could you have fooled everyone into thinking you were pregnant without me?" Jessica's tone was filled with accusation and anger. Soon, she took a deep breath and calmed down, asking Kiley, "But why have you changed your mind and want me to revoke Ariella's dismissal?"Kiley trembled and said, "She

    Ariella's POVWhen I woke up, I was already in a warm bed, with a cool, wet towel on my forehead.Looking around, I realized I was in Matthew's bedroom.I tried to sit up, supported by my arms, and saw him sitting not far away, dealing with some pack business.I reached out to try to get the glass of water on the bedside table, but no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't reach it. Matthew came over and picked up the glass, bringing it to my lips."I can do it myself, thanks."I took the glass from him and took a big sip of water, finally feeling a bit better."Do you always have to be so polite with me?" He said in a low voice, seemingly a bit angry.I didn't know how to answer him. The next second, he took the glass from my hand and placed it back on the bedside table, then kissed me on the lips."I'm thirsty too." He looked at me, his eyes filled with desire.I inhaled the pleasant scent of him, thinking about everything I had gone through today, and couldn't help but cry. He asked w

I felt the world spin, as if I were about to lose my hearing and sense of smell, about to faint. Not knowing what I was doing, I just wanted to escape it all, so I mechanically started running away. I ran into the forest, transformed into a wolf, and raced towards the seaside."Ella, wake up. I've given you some of my power to help you calm down. Now, slowly open your eyes."If it weren't for the gentle voice of my wolf, Lia, in my mind, I might have really lost consciousness.At that moment, I finally felt my breathing clear and felt a bit better. I slowly opened my eyes and realized that half of my body was submerged in the sea, with no one around.I had returned to human form. If I had taken two more steps into the sea, I might have drowned.Thinking about what had just happened, I covered my face and cried out loud. My tears fell into

Get up!"I reached out to pull Kiley up, but she suddenly shoved me away. The next second, she scooted forward and, crying, said to my mother, "Madam, your daughter broke up with Damien a long time ago! To prevent me from being with Damien, she even tried to kill me and the child in my womb! I beg you to save me!"My mother had just come to her senses. At Kiley's words, tears instantly welled up in her eyes.She looked at me and demanded, "Ella, did you and Damien break up a long time ago?"I didn't know how to answer her. I just looked at her, tears about to fall."I see. Ella, where did you get those herbs for treating my illness? And what about all those bruises on your neck last time?"My mother was becoming more and more agitated, tears falling continuously.
