Melinda's POV"What bomb?" Cliff's body tensed instantly, his voice carrying a tremor of tension.I was also startled, my first instinct being to get away from here as quickly as possible.But the three men in front of me clearly had no such intention."There's a bomb in the building. Derrick and I will look for the bomb, and you find Vanya. Once you find her, evacuate immediately," Theodore said swiftly.Jasper, tied up on the ground, stammered, "It's... it's useless. I told them to plant three bombs in each building to completely destroy the evidence, and they'll detonate in fifteen minutes...""What are you saying?! Such important information and you only tell us now!" Derrick rushed over, grabbing Jasper's collar as if he wanted to tear him apart.Jasper, already beaten to a pulp. He didn't dare to raise his head, curling into a ball."There's no time to defuse the bomb, go find Vanya!" Theodore finished, dashing into the abandoned building filled with unknown dangers like an arro

Vanya's POVDesperate, I used my head to hit the nearby pillar, each impact sending a piercing pain through me.But I ignored it. I was just hoping Cliff and the others could hear the noise and come to rescue me.At the same time, I called out to my wolf in my mind."Selena, are you there? Can you take over my body?" I wanted to shift to break free from the ropes and escape."These ropes are made of a special material. If I forcefully take over your body, we might break bones," Selena's voice echoed in my mind.My heart sank.Soon, I heard the sound of footsteps.The sound made me pause. It wasn't the heavy and steady sound of men's leather shoes on the ground but the crisp tapping of high heels.I looked up with difficulty and was surprised to see Melinda walking towards me.Her expression was somewhat gloomy.'How did she get here?' I wondered.She must be here with Cliff.Seeing her gloomy face, I instantly recalled her behavior from my past life.She wasn't here to save me.Accord

Theodore's POVAs soon as I heard Cliff's voice, Derrick and I immediately turned around.We headed downstairs quickly.Derrick asked, "What about Jasper?"I replied coldly, "Leave him here."Derrick shook his head, "Well."At that moment, my wolf suddenly issued a warning in my mind.I didn't understand its meaning but ran in the direction it guided.And there, I found Vanya collapsed in the corridor.She just left there.She was injured! Why didn't she ask for help?"Hold on tight," I reminded her.Vanya didn't speak but hugged me tighter."Hurry! The bomb is about to detonate!"Derrick shouted. I clutched Vanya and sprinted out of the unfinished building just in time.An explosion rocked the building, flames filling the sky.Vanya watched the fiery blast, her face pale with fear.Indeed, had I not brought her along, she might have been in danger."Get in the car!" I told Derrick.With that, I placed Vanya in the back seat and prepared to join her when I noticed Cliff's car not far

Vanya's POVStepping into the Packhouse living room, I saw Cliff sitting on the sofa, tending to Melinda's wounds intently.As soon as I appeared, Melinda jumped up like a startled fawn, her expression flustered as she explained, "Luna Vanya, Alpha Cliff just saw that I was injured and wanted to help bandage me..."However, she was abruptly cut off by Cliff's cold voice, "There's no need to explain."Hearing Cliff's words, Melinda quickly lowered her head like a child who had made a mistake.She snuggled up beside him, looking exactly like a frightened little rabbit seeking shelter.Witnessing Cliff's indifferent gaze, which mirrored my past memories, felt like my heart was plunged into an icy abyss.The gratitude I had felt towards him vanished.It seemed he had never truly cared about my feelings."I'm very tired."I said, not wanting to linger in the suffocating atmosphere any longer. I turned and headed towards the stairs.My thoughts had already moved past the entanglement betwee

Vanya's POVMelinda's face turned extremely embarrassed in an instant, as if a dark cloud had covered the originally bright sunshine.I could deeply feel her inner panic and helplessness at this moment.She wanted to prepare a sumptuous breakfast for Cliff, but she never expected Veronica to come so early, turning all her careful preparations into nothing.Before she had time to defend herself, Veronica saw through her petty thoughts keenly."Mrs. Todd, I... I really just wanted to make breakfast to thank Luna Vanya and Alpha Cliff, I have no other thoughts at all," Melinda explained anxiously.Her voice trembled slightly, like a frightened little animal desperately seeking refuge.I quietly watched Melinda's somewhat embarrassed appearance.I was very clear that with her current experience and means, she was too naive and simple in front of Veronica, the former Luna who had experienced countless storms and was wise and profound.Veronica had lived for so many years and had witnessed

Vanya's POVI frowned at Cliff, wondering when he started harboring such negative assumptions about me."I haven't done anything," I said impatiently."I've told you countless times. Melinda is my true mate and will be a valuable asset to the company. She poses no threat to your position as Luna. There's no need to target her constantly. Let alone use Veronica against her."Cliff accused me angrily, "I've told you I will reject her, but not now. Can't you wait a little longer?""Cliff, I've said I didn't, and it wasn't me who told Veronica about the kidnapping. She wouldn't have shown up and found Melinda staying over if you hadn't told her," I explained.Cliff narrowed his eyes, his face filled with suspicion. "It had better be that way," he said."Believe it or not."I replied, not caring whether he believed me or not. I stopped expecting his trust a long time ago.Soon, Cliff and I got into the car, where he held my hand hypocritically.I found his pretense amusing.I knew he was j

Vanya's POVCliff looked at me, rubbing his temple wearily.I could almost read his thoughts, probably regretting not leaving me by the roadside.With reluctance, he got out of the car, picked up five or six bags, and I silently followed him.As soon as we pushed open the door, Cliff stood still as if under a spell.Blocked from entering, I asked in confusion, "Hey! Cliff! Could you move inside?"Following Cliff into the house, his face was as dark as the sky before a storm, extremely unpleasant.I could distinctly feel his body tense like a rigid stick, every muscle radiating resistance.I squeezed past him and saw under the dim, yellowish light, the living room had been magically set up with an exquisite candlelight dinner.My heart sank the moment this scene came into view.Undoubtedly, this was Veronica's idea.No wonder she insisted Cliff take me home after the mall. She had this waiting for me.It was a meticulously designed trap."Vanya, you really have your ways," Cliff's voic

Vanya's POVCliff glanced at me, who was looking their way, and hesitated for a moment.Then, he took a deep breath and said, "I'm coming over now."With that, Cliff hung up the phone.A wave of secret joy surged in my heart, but I didn't dare show it on my face and quickly pretended to continue eating.I silently prayed he wouldn't notice anything off about me.Cliff cleared his throat and said, "I have to go out for something.""Was that Melinda on the phone?" I asked knowingly, already well aware of the situation.I just wanted to see how he would explain it and was also thinking about how to get him out of the house as quickly as possible."Melinda's ankle isn't getting better. I need to take her to the hospital," Cliff said, somewhat uncomfortably adjusting his collar.His gaze avoided mine naturally.I could sense he was worried I would make a scene, as I had done in the past.I nodded slightly and forced a magnanimous smile, saying, "Of course, you should go."Inside, I was thi

Cliff's POVThe next day, as the first hint of dawn began to lighten the sky, the faint morning light filtered through the windows and spilled into the living room.I leaned against the sofa, having not slept a wink all night, feeling waves of exhaustion wash over me.After last night's chaos, my nerves were still taut. My mind was a jumbled mess of conflicting thoughts.At that moment, I saw Vanya coming downstairs, carrying some toiletries, apparently planning to head back to her apartment early in the morning.The moment I saw her, my nerves tightened like a bowstring about to snap, and I tensed up instantly.I quickly stood up and took a few steps forward to block her path. My tone softened involuntarily, tinged with caution, "Where are you going?""Back to my apartment," Vanya replied coldly, her eyes distant and resolute, as if I were a complete stranger.Her voice was soft, but it struck my heart like a heavy hammer.Instinctively, I reached out and grabbed her wrist, wanting t

Vanya's POVI knew that only by leaving with Cliff could the two packs remain unscathed, and I could secure their future protection.At this thought, a chill ran down my spine, and a deep sense of unease washed over me.Edwin's mind was incredibly meticulous. Every move seemed meticulously planned, which was truly terrifying.He was like a wolf lurking in the shadows, always ready to strike with a fatal blow, catching everyone off guard.After a moment of silence, I said, "Thank you, Mr. Hammond. It's getting late, and I'll leave with Alpha Cliff now. I apologize for any rudeness today and will come to make amends another day."Edwin lowered his eyelids. After a while, he raised a hand in a gesture.The bodyguards stepped aside, and Cliff's grip on my arm tightened even more as he turned to leave.I keenly noticed that outside the Hammond family's door, Cliff had also brought his own people.If I had chosen to stay just now, Cliff's men might have stormed the hall without hesitation.

Vanya's POVMy heart skipped a beat. I hadn't detected any amusement in Edwin's eyes.My initial approach to Wilmot was always driven by his status and future prospects.Such a motive couldn't even be hidden from Wilmot, let alone Edwin.I recalled how Edwin had dealt with that flamboyant woman just now—right in front of me. It was clearly a warning.My heartbeat quickened involuntarily, but I maintained a calm facade and said, "Just classmates, not particularly close."Edwin let out a soft chuckle and said, "The wind up here is rather strong. Miss Dalton, it's better if you don't come up. Wilmot is downstairs. You two can have a chat."I couldn't fathom Edwin's intentions, but one thing was clear—he didn't want me near this terrace.Naturally, I wouldn't oppose him. After a polite nod, I headed downstairs.When I reached the bottom, I saw Wilmot drinking alone at the stairway entrance.Upon seeing me

Cliff's POVIn the hospital corridor, Elliot hurried back to the ward after receiving a phone call.He said to me, "Alpha Cliff, there seems to be some trouble at the Hammond family's event."I made a shushing gesture and glanced at Melinda, who was still unconscious in the hospital bed.I whispered to Elliot, "Let's talk outside.""……Yes, Alpha Cliff," Elliot hesitated but went out to wait first.After I closed the ward door, I said, "Go ahead.""It's about Luna..."Before he could finish, I frowned and asked, "What trouble has she caused now?""It seems two of Miss Coleman's classmates were slandering Luna Vanya, calling her a call girl and saying some very unpleasant things. They were kicked out by Mr. Hammond.""Slandering Vanya as a call girl?" I furrowed my brows even more. "Would she just stand there and let herself be slandered?""Luna Vanya didn't say a word the whole time. It was Gra

Third Person's POVRaven was frightened by Wilmot. She retreated two steps, shrinking behind her father, Tristan Schmidt.Tristan had never seen his daughter so wronged, especially right in front of him.He immediately said, "Mr. Hammond! Raven is a girl. You should let her have the last word. How could you..."Tristan's words were cut short as Wilmot found it amusing. "Excuse me?"Everyone around them wore expressions of anticipation, as if watching a drama unfold.Who was Wilmot?From a young age, only Edwin had been able to keep him in check. No outsider had ever dared to lecture him condescendingly.Tristan's face fell as he said, "Even so, I am your elder!""Who do you think you are?"Wilmot gave Tristan no respect.In this circle, respect was only given to those who were more powerful.These were just obscure small-business owners, making a few hundred thousand a month. If it weren't for Vanya

Third Person's POVCliff completely ignored Vanya beside him and strode forward, swiftly picking up Melinda and holding her in his arms.He shouted, "Elliot! Go get the doctor! Hurry up!""Yes, Alpha Cliff!" Elliot glanced deeply at Melinda in Cliff's arms before rushing off.Vanya couldn't help but sneer at the sight.Melinda's fainting seemed too convenient—too perfectly timed.Anyone with even a basic understanding of the situation, including Elliot, could sense something was amiss. Only Cliff, in his concern for Melinda, failed to notice.Wilmot watched the scene with a burning heart and said to Vanya, "He just left you behind like that?""Isn't that normal?" Vanya replied, though she was genuinely surprised by Melinda's move.Raven's gaze towards Vanya grew more hostile as she watched Melinda being carried away.Vanya noticed Raven's look and raised an eyebrow.It seemed Raven and Fawn believed t

Third Person's POVCliff saw Vanya the moment she walked in.He also noticed Theodore, who was following behind her. That sight seemed to sting his eyes.Wilmot had been waiting inside for quite some time. Upon seeing Vanya, his eyes lit up instantly.He dropped the glass of red wine in his hand and strode quickly towards her."Why so late?"Wilmot's tone conveyed dissatisfaction, but more so, it was filled with delight.Vanya said, "Let me introduce you. This is my friend, Grace."Wilmot's expression changed slightly upon seeing Grace.Grace, however, seemed quite intrigued and said, "Wilmot? You've grown up. We've met when you were still a kid."With that, Grace reached out to tug at Wilmot's ear, but he quickly blocked her hand, exclaiming, "I'm grown up now! I'm not a kid anymore!"Vanya hadn't expected that they knew each other.Grace then explained to Vanya, "When we were kids, the Hammond fami

Melinda's POVI deliberately lowered my voice, pretending to be at a loss.At the mere mention of Vanya, Cliff's brows furrowed. Although he didn't say anything, I could sense his impatience."Do you not want to come?" he asked."Of course not!" My cheeks flushed as I explained, "I'm just worried that people will make wild guesses about our relationship again."Cliff didn't respond to me.Soon, Cliff and I arrived at the gala venue. There weren't many people inside. Cliff greeted the people one by one.Before long, the main doors were pushed open again.Two couples walked in, followed by Fawn and Raven, who were holding hands.They came too!In an instant, my heart dropped into the abyss. How could they be at such an important occasion?Cliff noticed the change in my expression and frowned, asking, "Melinda, are you feeling unwell? Shall I have Elliot take you home first?""I..." I was about to speak

Third Person's POV"Stop pretending. It's been so long since the incident, and you never once invited us out for a meal to apologize. What's the real deal? Now you're just trying to show off that your rich boyfriend bought you a house, right?"Raven's voice was just loud enough to reach the ears of those around them. The surrounding people cast odd glances their way.Raven had previously been accused of spreading rumors by the dean and had endured quite a few disdainful looks during that time.She had no patience for Melinda now.Melinda hadn't expected Raven's reaction to be so intense, nor had she anticipated that Raven would directly expose her vanity.Her face turned pale instantly. "Raven, let's talk this through. I didn't mean it like that..."Raven scoffed, "Who wants to talk this through with you?""Raven, I know I was wrong. This time, I genuinely want to apologize to you... can you just forgive me?" Tears rolled down
