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
Jennifer was sitting in front of the mirror as the other women applied makeup to her. They kept complimenting her while they were working.On the other hand, she was considering the next step she would take. She had made up her mind that this was the last place she would ever live.'What does he want to talk about? What is there to talk about in our marriage? It was just a deal he specified a lot of times in the past. What does he want? Divorce me, then make that woman his Luna and make me his mistress? Does he want to reverse the role?' She thought.She found herself engaging in a great deal of self-reflection. She had no idea how much longer she could keep herself under control."Luna, you look gorgeous as always. It's Alpha's birthday night. He will be surprised looking at your beauty tonight." A woman said and others chuckled.Jennifer did not take anything in her heart. She was completely preoccupied with her own thoughts.Because her white gown only covered her lower back, the h
Jennifer turned her head and saw the man who was looking into her eyes. His eyes were blunt. There was no act in them.Jennifer smiled lightly and nodded at him."Yeah, I feel the same, Keith.""Alpha Keith."Others slightly bowed to him when they saw him approaching with his officials.Jennifer remembered that Beta Justin had invited him, too. He was one of the chief guests at the party.Suddenly, Jennifer felt Raymond's hand loosen. She turned her attention to him as she turned her head to look at him.He had a calm expression on his face as he looked at Keith. He slipped his hands into his pockets and let them rest there.Keith stopped in front of them and greeted him."Even though there are still a few hours remaining till your birthday, Alpha Raymond, I want to wish you a happy birthday in advance."Raymond was fixating his gaze on Keith the entire time. Keith did not avoid eye contact or break contact with him either. It was like they were talking in mind links and did not need
Keith smirked when she agreed to dance. He brought her to the dance floor and grabbed her waist.She averted her gaze away from him and began to imitate his movements.He moved closer to her so that he could whisper in her ear,"I know why you agreed."She paused and looked at him. He turned his head to the side and signaled for her to look behind him.Her eyes fell behind him. Raymond was sitting at the bar, drinking. His eyes were focused on her. His face was not calm anymore. It turned fierce, as if he were challenging her to move one more step.She inhaled deeply and quickly diverted her gaze from him. In a mumbling voice, she said, "Since you know, it's good."After uttering such words, she resumed her previous motion. He let out a chuckle before drawing her close to him. Her eyes widened at the closeness. He took a firm grip on her wrist and whirled her around."I had been waiting for your call. You said you would call me later. But your call never came."She tried to break the
Jennifer focused her gaze directly on his eyes. His eyes were on fire from the heat that was inside him.When he noticed that she did not reply to him, his hold became increasingly firm.Jennifer was taken aback by the fact that she was able to maintain her composure despite the circumstances.He released her neck, and she rubbed her neck with her fingertips.He did not back away from her and instead remarked,"Didn't I tell you to stay away from the witches with purple eyes? Who gave you the audacity to break them free from my cage?" He shouted at her.Her body jerked in response to his harsh tone of speech. She squinted her eyes and dipped her head slightly.It was indeed her fault.She almost forgot about Scarlett."She is not evil." She was a young girl who wanted-"He silenced her by gripping her jaw, which was an abrupt move."Who wanted what? Who wanted to go help her family so they could plot against Alpha Raymond?"She shook her head and replied,"No. She was all alone with h
Jennifer's eyes widened. Her lips were quivering. As she took a step back, her legs began to tremble.Another betrayal!She bit her bottom lip to control herself. Tears did not stop but flowed down from her eyes.She felt pain in her chest that she had never felt before. It was not only that her heart was crushed; it seemed as though her bones were broken from the inside as well.She was unaware of what was taking place in the area surrounding her. While she was crying, she moved back a few paces. As she started to feel her heart almost stop beating, she was unable to cry out in pain.'How could you plan something like that? Didn't we agree with breaking the marriage after you got your enemies? Then why did you have it in your mind to make an attempt to kill me?' She thought and shook her head.She retreated a few steps before turning around to leave the hallway. She was about to leave the hallway when she accidentally ran into one of the vases, which resulted in the vase shattering a
In the pack houseRaymond was glaring at the guards, who were bowing their heads in front of him."What do you mean you didn't find your Luna? Is it some kind of joke?" He asked with a sharp voice.Those guards were trembling in fear. They looked through every corner of the ballroom, but they were unable to find Jennifer anywhere.Around an hour ago, Raymond was talking with his friends, and all of them heard the sound of something breaking. When they went outside to investigate, they discovered that there was no one else there, not even the security guards whom Raymond had instructed to stand outside.When Beta Justin located the guards, he questioned them about their whereabouts. They responded that only Jennifer went there and that she commanded them to watch the outside.Following that, Justin shared the information with Raymond. From then on, Raymond ordered them to call Jennifer to him.Raymond became enraged and stood up. His officials, as well as Robin, sprang to their feet at
