Time passed slowly, and the environment of the pack house changed with time.A few weeks after the incident, Florence was discharged from the pack hospital and made her way back to the pack house. It was declared by Raymond to others not to disturb her in her bedroom. Raymond gave her all the necessary security and ordered others to keep their distance from her. He also made sure that no one else came near her.Florence was healthy again in a month's time, despite the fact that her stitches caused her some pain. However, Robin stated that the reason for this was due to the fact that she was too weak to use up the tonic he was giving her.Jennifer was changing with the passing of time. Day by day, she was feeling strange inside. Her mood also changed like a flipper. Sometimes, she got very angry at Florence for no reason, and sometimes, she held herself back from arguing with Raymond.Her relationship with Raymond did not progress well at all; in fact, it was worsening.Though Jennife
Florence stood up from the couch with a stunned face. "What are you saying?""What did I say? Show me your mark." Jennifer replied while observing her expression."How can you talk to a girl like this? How can I show my body to you? It's somewhere I can't show you. You are also a woman; how can you disgrace a woman like this?" Florence asked with a shocked tone.Jennifer furrowed her brows. "Look, I don't have much time, so just do what I said. Because, as you said, I am a woman and not a man, there is no need for you to be embarrassed. I want to see if you really said the truth about yourself or if you are just pretending like one."Florence moved away from the couch and shook her head. "No, I won't show you. I don't care if you are a Luna of this pack or not. I will only show it to Raymond. Only he can see my body."Jennifer got angry at her words. She got on her feet and walked to her."Shut your mouth before I cut your tongue off." She warned her. She was unaware that her words an
Jennifer removed her other hand from her face. Her brows shot up."Nicole?""I am thrilled that you can still recognize my voice. I wonder if you miss me every day. But where have your manners gone? How can you call your mother by name?""How did you get my number?""Oh, honey. It should not be your question. You should ask your mother how she is."Jennifer could feel hatred bubbling inside her heart. The woman she wanted to kill had called her."How. Did. You. Get. My. Number?" She demanded while clenching her teeth in a furious rage."You have neglected to remember that I was a Luna in the past. As of recently, my daughter is also a Luna. Consequently, it is not difficult to gain another Luna's number in order to set up a meeting, you know."Jennifer closed her eyes and tried to restrain herself. "Why did you call me?""I was missing you, my daughter."Jennifer scoffed when she heard that. "So now you are missing your daughter? Oh, sorry, step daughter.""I see you have learned how
Jennifer fixed her gaze on the palm of her hand. She blinked her eyes a few times. She used the thumb of her other hand to gently stroke her palm in a steady, soothing motion. She could not feel any pain."What is happening to me? I have an odd sensation all over my body, and on top of that, my wounds…"She threw the cotton balls, which were soaked with blood.She positioned herself such that her back was against the couch, and her head was supported by the headrest. She closed her eyes and hid her face with her palms.Her thoughts were thrown off by everything. She wanted to take a break from the game that her fate was playing. She was tired.Her mind kept messing with Raymond. Since he was involved with another woman, it would be better if she left him.She had decided that she did not want to continue remaining in this place and acting as a third wheel any longer. It was very painful for her to feel hurt, and she had to repeatedly collect herself in order to return to her normal li
The next morning, Jennifer got ready earlier since she had not slept the whole night. After coming back to the pack house in the wee hours of the morning, she walked straight to the office. She remained there for quite some time in order to work on something.She did not see Raymond when she went to the bedroom, nor did she check on him.When it was time for breakfast, she was the first one to enter the dining room.Mason arrived there and proceeded to take a seat. He gave her a questioning look and said, "Dark circles! You didn't get much sleep last night?""Why do you care?""Oh, I care a lot about you. You know that better than anyone. You know where my room is. Why didn't you come when you could not get to sleep while thinking about your husband sleeping with another woman?" He asked while smirking at her.Jennifer maintained a steady composure. After Donna's incident, everyone in the pack house was aware of Raymond's special attention to Florence, as evidenced by the fact that he
Jennifer confirmed this by nodding her head. "Yeah. Divorce agreement."Raymond's eyes never left Jennifer as he continued to stare at her. She did not remove her eyes from him either.He heaved a sigh and then inquired,"Why do you want a divorce?""Look, I am already tired of everything. I am not going to repeat anything.""Did I tell you that I am removing you from your position? Can't you see it's yours?"She looked away from him and shook her head."I don't want to be in this position anymore.""Did I try to touch you? Or are you going to accuse me of using you once again?" He asked as his voice became increasingly icier."I am not saying that. I just can't stay here anymore.""Why?" His one word was the question of every answer.She was silent, indicating that she would not explain anything. Her eyes were on the floor.He rubbed his forehead and said,"I am already exhausted. I am not in the mood for fun. I am tired."She gave him a thoughtful look before responding,"And I am t
Jennifer left Raymond's office after getting her answer. She did not try to force him since she was aware that without his permission, she would not be able to step outdoors, making it difficult for her to break away from the pack.On the other hand, she felt that he would consent to the divorce. The only reason he was hesitant was due to his disgrace. People around them would start talking about it. Because of this, she instructed him to get the necessary paperwork and make his decision in order to give the impression to others that he was the one who initiated the divorce proceedings. She did not want any formalities. She just wanted to leave.A few days went by, and Jennifer worked to move up her Luna's duty. She had nothing else to do but wait for the celebration. And the passing of the days seemed to drag on forever.Jennifer tried to ignore every way she could bump into Raymond. She avoided him at mealtimes as well.He surprisingly came to sleep in the bedroom one night. That ni
As soon as Jennifer heard the question, she made a frowning face. When she looked down at her hand, she noticed that she was still holding the arrow.'What's wrong with me? How did I do that?' She asked herself. She also had no idea about this.Despite this, she was able to gather her composure and look at the young man who had asked her the question."How is it possible for a Luna to protect her pack if she can't even protect herself?"When others heard her, they bowed to her promptly.Gamma Glen rushed toward her. "I heard someone attack you. Who dared to do that?" He asked with an angry tone.Others shook in fear. Glen was their leader of their training. He was the Gamma of this pack.He turned his head to Jennifer and asked,"Are you okay, Luna?"Because they were outside and in the presence of others, he referred to her as Luna."Yeah. I am fine." Jennifer replied and passed the arrow to him.He took possession of it and examined it in extensive detail. It was an antique arrow th
