I lifted my head from where I was lying in the cold prison and glanced at the prison guard, who just threw a plate of food at me. "Acting aloof? I heard you eat quite a lot."He lifted his foot and crushed the rice he served me. I know very well that he has been paid by my stepmother to do this to me. They said I poisoned my father, and I ended up being thrown into this pit of hell. I smirked at the dirty food on the floor. Outside the cell, I could hear the sound of television. "Mr. Ethan Shein has returned to the country today. Right now, he has arrived at the cabin stone pack.""Cabin Stone is the largest pack in South America. Mr. Ethan took over the pack ten years ago, and today's strength and growth can't be compared to any."My heart froze in an instant. I rushed at the cell door, trying my best to check it off and see if I could see his face on the television. "What are you doing, little runt? Isn't it obvious that you won't even deserve to wash that man's feet?"I lowere
I slowly regained consciousness and watched an expensive chandelier hang above me. .I lay on a silk sheet. It was as though I was in heaven. I felt so comfortable and happy. Heaven, do I really deserve to be there? I sat up, staring in disbelief at my surroundings. This was clearly the bedroom I shared with Ethan in his mansion. How did I return here all of a sudden?I quickly pushed the bedsheet off, rushing to the bathroom to check my reflection. It was still me. The beautiful Charlotte. Ten years ago, I was still Ethan's Luna, with a beautiful face praised by all. I have heard the rumor that I am the most beautiful woman in my pack, but after spending so much time in prison, I became the ghost of myself. Back then, as long as I smiled, numerous men would run over to me. And few will scamper away when they find out my wolf is runt. I was dazed by the face staring back at me. No way! Have I been reborn? Before I could recover from the shock, the room door swung open. "Sis,
Luna's choosing a game!. It was more of a death trap than a game. That was what my father once said when I was still little—who knew I would participate in one myself one day? All through the night, I kept thinking about what it would be like. My mother-in-law doesn't like me, and she would even do anything within her power to make sure I was not chosen. I thought mate bonding was supposed to be all that I had to do. I looked at my surroundings and sighed. I slept in Ethan's room but woke up in mine. Does he really not want me again, or is he just avoiding trouble? I threw the sheet in a corner and headed out to look for him. The moment I opened the door, I saw him standing right at the door and adjusting his wrist watch. I could smell that he had just showered. "Are you feeling unwell?" Ethan asked, seeing my pale skin and my drowsy eyes. He placed his hands on my forehead, avoiding the part that was a bit swollen. I involuntarily hugged him tightly. I didn't even realize th
When I left the hospital, it was already dark. Ethan had called me repeatedly and even offered to drive me home, but I assured him I was okay. My phone dinged again, and since I was relaxed in the car, I decided to check out what notifications I had been receiving since morning."Oh shit! No way did I forget about that?!" I screamed as I read out the notification: October 30th, Ethan Sheln's birthday !I bit my lips in regret; I couldn't even wish him a happy birthday. How would he then believe I had changed for the better? "Could you stop me over there?" I pointed to Terrace Jewelry and Co. once I sighted it. It is one of the best jewelry shops in the Crimson Stone Pack. They have gold, silver, diamonds—whatever gem you want, just name it; they've got it. When I got into the store, the sales personnel didn't bother to attend to me. The reason was obvious. This store is for the rich and influential members of the pack, but today I dressed so casually because I had to rush, so I w
I stormed out of the house frustrated. I didn't know what exactly I would do next if I stayed there a little longer Anger, betrayal, and a burning desire for revenge churned within me. I just wanted a fresh air so I decided to walk back home even though it was getting late. Although I drove to the the nearest car wash before walking down the house with my legs. I dialed Ethan's number but after the second ring he still didn't pick. I felt really bad because he was the one that insisted I call him when I want that he would come running to me. I called Kiara and even before the first ring furnished she picked up.." Hi bestie!""What's up Kiara. How are you doing""I'm good. Just having issue with the next plot twist I 'd add to my book. Or maybe I should kill some minor character""It better not be Jade cos I will murder you too" I said in an alarming serious tone. "Alright. Alright ". She laughed. If there was someone that made to to start reading books it was Kiara. When we
~ Ethan ~I have been in a meeting for the past three hours with the board of directors, who decided to shift the time of our meeting from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. My phone rang like twice; I ignored it and silenced it. We just finished, and I headed back to my office, with Vincent following closely behind. I checked my phone call details to see that it was Charlotte who called. If I knew she was the one calling, I would have abandoned the meeting. It's just that she never called me during work hours. I dialed her number, but then it was unreachable. Well, she's probably asleep or reading the books I bought her, and I even forgot to charge her phone. You finally love having a mate," Vincent said once he noticed his glued-on eyes were on the phone. "Yeah, that's the best feeling, man." I said. I really meant what I said. Vincent is the only one who actually knows me too well. He is the most trusted person around me, and the fact that we were still friends was thanks to him. I, on a norma
~Charlotte ~The sound of someone snoring beside me woke me up. My head was pounding heavily, and I felt disoriented. I try to remember where I was. The room was dimly lit. My two hands were tied with a robe as I lay on a bed that was surprising comfortable. "Where the hell is this place?" I looked around. I finally came to my senses and remembered everything that had happened. The slap, my struggles, the rude men with masks And the fact that my phone had been smashed.They finally succeeded in getting me kidnapped.I wriggled my hands, testing the tightness of the knots. It was so freaking tight that I couldn't loosen it myself. however, knowing fully well that it was all on me to decide if I wanted to live or be killed here. As I scanned the room, I noticed a small window high up on one wall, covered by metal bars. It seemed like my only way out. With my hands still bound, I carefully sat up, trying not to make any noise. The person snoring beside me was still deep in sleep. I rec
