Jaxon kept looking at the clock. It was past midnight, but Veronica wasn't still in his pack. He sighed as he tried to hide his anxiousness. He couldn't understand what he felt. It seemed there was something terrible that might have happened to Veronica.“Alpha, what are you doing? You still not sleepy?” Uriel asked in a sleepy tone. He yawned while he was looking at him. His eyes were full of curiosity. Uriel came closer to him, staring at the clock he had been staring at. “Is there something wrong with our clock? I think it's working.” He commented.He scowled when he heard what Uriel had said to him. Of course, it was working! He knew how to read a clock because he wasn't stupid. Irritation was more evident in his face. He disliked what Uriel had told him.“I know it's working. I'm only thinking of Veronica. It's past midnight, and she's still not yet home.” He tried his best to hide the annoyance from his tone. He closed his eyes and massaged his nape. He realized Uriel was still
She slowly opened her eyes and noticed unfamiliar surroundings. She massaged her nape, trying to ease the pain she had felt. She groaned when she thought that she slept for so long.Where was she? What she remembered was she was about to come back to Jaxon's home, but she ended up getting attacked by Veron. She was sure it was Veron. She knew him, and seeing how he creepily stared at her before she lost consciousness made her feel creepy.Veron was such a nice man in her eyes. He might end up doing something terrible to her, but she was sure he had his reason. She tried to crawl from the bed, but she couldn't move properly.She didn't know why she couldn't move her feet or even her hands. Did the poison was still effective in her body?“J-Jaxon,” she whispered his name. She swallowed hard as she remembered what Veron kept talking while she was in the middle of sleep. She looked around and saw that the door was opened. She was sure she was in Veron's pack, and he was trying to hide her
Veronica didn’t know what she would answer to him. She thought about what would happen once Jaxon found out, even though it wasn’t an actual relationship. Her lips parted as she tried to move away from Veron. Her lips trembled in anxiety. Seeing Veron act made her more anxious that he might hurt her in the end. Helene was such a lucky woman, but she felt bad for him even though she was always a bitch to her. She realized that Helene might have acted that way because the Alpha King pushed her to snatch Jaxon from her.Helene might be in love with Jaxon, but it didn’t mean she would let herself be so low because of her feelings for him. Even though Jaxon already forgot her as his lover, she became desperate even more because Jaxon was the answer for her.How would she know if Veron was telling her the truth? She was suspicious since Veron killed those men who were trying to guard her. She blinked her eyes, trying to calculate everything that she needed to think. She didn’t want to decid
Silence...Ava was shocked when she saw Veronica standing at the door, and she was sure she heard everything. Seeing how Veronica looked at her with anger made her think she needed to explain everything to her. She stood up and was about to go closer to Veronica when it was Jaxon who quickly rushed towards her.“Where do you go? We search for you!” Jaxon was about to hold Veronica, but she only flinched from his touch. She couldn't believe that she was dumb to think Jaxon had changed. She didn't know Ava, her only sister, was the one who would help Jaxon to manipulate her emotions.“Veronica...” Jaxon whispered her name and was about to hold her again, but she stepped away and looked at him with resentment. Her anger rose to Ava, James, and Jaxon. She bit her lips as she tried her best to hide what she truly felt. She felt betrayed by anyone, and seeing how Uriel looked at her made her think Uriel already knew Jaxon had regained his memories.Since she came to Jaxon's pack, she hated
“Your Majesty, it is nice to see you again.” She bowed her head to show the Alpha King respect. Veron was holding her by the waist and helping her to have the strength to start the drama she was supposed to start. She tried her best to form a broad smile and glanced at Veron, who was watching his every move.Helene was standing beside the Alpha King. Exhaustion was evident on her face when Veronica gave her a look. She felt terrible for her, especially when she noticed she had dark circles below her eyes. Helene didn’t react violently, for she knew her father would punish her for making Veronica angry.“It is nice to see you, too, Veronica. I was surprised when Veron informed me about your sudden visits. He said he would announce something important, and I would make sure my schedule would be clear for you!” The Alpha King said to move closer to Veronica, held her hand, and kissed it.Helene widened her eyes. She couldn’t believe his father had done that to Veronica while Veron was tr
Jaxon was expressionless. He was only looking at Veronica with sharp eyes, but he didn't even dare to talk to Veronica. The Alpha King was used to seeing his smug expression, so he thought it was normal.He pointed to the chair and said, “Come on! Sit with us! Let's talk about some things. My son is getting married to Veronica. I hope you don't mind and take it personally.”Jaxon walked straight to the seat and sat on it. He acted like he didn’t hear Veronica and glanced at Helene. Veronica pursed her lips to hide what she felt when Jaxon's act worked. She didn’t exist in his life. She held Veron’s hand and gave Veron a sweet smile.While Helene on the other side, was confused. She didn’t know what happened between Veronica and Jaxon, but she was sure it was about Veron. She gave Jaxon a flirty smirk even though she didn’t like it anymore before she embraced Jaxon as if she was so happy to be with him again.“Jaxon, you surprise me.” she started, acting not to see how Veronica arched
“I'm not. I'm exhausted.” Veronica replied. She saw him frown at her before he continued his meal. Albert seemed surprised to think that Veronica might be pregnant again.“Have you slept with Veron before?” Albert couldn't stop himself from asking. He was curious how Veronica got pregnant.Veronica acted shy when she heard Albert's question. She lowered her head and scratched her nape before she answered, “Your question is too personal. I don't think I need to answer that.”Albert looked away. He was taken aback when Veronica answered it. She was correct that his question was personal. However, he only wanted to know because the Alpha King reminded him to report everything about Veronica.“I'm sorry if I ask that question. I don't want to offend you.”“Is it normal to sleep with him? We are both adults.”“Oh, then you finally sleep with him?”“Of course, even though I'm not staying here. It is Veron who helped me to save myself.”“Do you mean you sleep with him even though you're stay
“What happened?” Uriel couldn't stop asking when he saw how Jaxon angrily threw his things. He watched him gnashing his teeth in so much madness.Jaxon was still lacking sleep because Veronica had left him. They both do everything to search for her and discover Veronica is staying with Veron in his pack. What made him more annoyed was Veronica slept with Veron in the same room. He wanted to choke Veron until he finally stopped breathing, but he knew Veronica would be more outraged by him.He didn't want her to get mad at him more, especially when he wanted her to forgive her. He finally realized his lessons in a complicated way. He knew Veronica would not return to his pack until he didn't change himself.What made him more embarrassed was Veronica got mad at Ava and James, who only helped him. He was the one who needed to be blamed, but Ava informed him Veronica had decided to have a mating ceremony with Veron. That was why he didn't bother to ask the Alpha King about his inten
