Claire P.O.V

I glanced over at Ethan, who was sitting beside me. He had his chin resting on his hand, gazing out the window at the street we were walking on, the remnants of the dormitory still smouldering behind us. People were staring at us, their faces a mix of awe and unspoken fear.

As we drove off, I saw Agatha being slapped by her dad. Her mom was powerless to intervene, and they were caught up in a heated argument until Agatha fell silent, her father's hand poised to strike again.

Ethan Randall—that's the name the Alpha dropped earlier. It sends shivers down the spine of everyone who hears it. Is it really that intimidating?

Ethan's voice caught me off guard. He didn’t even turn around when he said, “If you’ve got something to ask, just go ahead. Stop staring at me like that.”

“Uh, nothing. But are you actually an Alpha?”

Ethan frowned, his forehead creasing as he shot me a disbelieving look. “What do you mean? They call me Alpha, but I’m also a wolf warrior and a Beta? Do you

    Claire P.O.VI took Ethan's hand as he reached out to help me out of the car, which had been cruising for about half an hour after we disembarked from his private jet. After leaving the small town and getting the Alpha's nod from my old Pack, where I stayed with the sisters, I followed Ethan.This Pack is way more significant than the one I was part of. It’s not just werewolves; there are humans, too, and everything feels more mixed and diverse. As we made our way to the Pack House on the hillside, I couldn’t help but be amazed by how impressive this Pack really was.As soon as I stepped out of the car, I was blown away by the stunning view of Ethan's Pack House. It looked like a grand castle with its white and blue marble walls sparkling in the sunlight. The massive, sturdy pillars at the corners added to its impressive look, and the expansive courtyard was impeccably kept, watched over by a bunch of alert Wolf guards.“What's wrong? Don’t you like it here?” Ethan asked, and I quickl

    Ethan P.O.VI gazed out the window as I swirled the wine in my glass. Though not huge, the backyard was well-kept, and the spring flowers I had requested a while back were now in full bloom.The sun was starting to dip, casting a reddish mauve hue that brought a sense of calm I had missed after being away from this place for months.While I savoured the sunset with my glass of wine, I suddenly felt a gentle touch on my back. A pair of slender fingers adorned with beautifully polished nails brushed against me.Those fingers didn’t just stop there; they began to trace around my waist, and then I felt a warm kiss on my back. I knew exactly who it was, but I didn’t turn around. Instead, I stayed lost in the moment, enjoying the embrace and the familiar scent, all while sipping my wine.As those hands started to slide down to my waist, I quickly took hold of her hand, giving it a few gentle strokes until I could tell she was definitely playing with me.“Is she already in her room?”“Yep, a

    Ethan P.O.V"Ah! There! It's feels good! Ah—"My fingers don't stop playing in her pussy. Making her wriggle with pleasure. Her face was red, and her breathing began to sound irregular, but it was like the rhythm of the most beautiful music I had ever heard.Two of my fingers felt wet by her pussy's thick and distinctive liquid. It's been quite a while since the last time we had sex, probably before I went to leave the House Pack to finish my work and do some failed gun deals by the idiots we met. After that, I had to look at a new transaction location and instead met the person I had been looking for."You're nice and wet. Can you tell how it's seeping out more and more?" I asked as she stroked her already very wet pussy."Because you're not here for a long time," Lucy answered. Her hands cupped my face, pulled me into a kiss, and led me to stimulation that was beyond reasonable limits.I stop my finger playing inside her pussy, release our kiss, then crawl down, facing her crotch.

    Claire P.O.VI took Ethan's hand as he guided me into the room Lucy had set up for me. His hand was big, with long, strong fingers, and I could feel some calluses on his palms like he'd been lifting something heavy for a while.The mansion was massive. When I decided to leave the room, I had no clue where to go, just wandering until I ended up in the backyard of that enormous place.Not knowing how to return to my room, I stood there, lost in memories of all the times I shared with Sister Alberta and the rest of my family back in the dorm. Eventually, Ethan came looking for me.Standing in front of the room Lucy had given me, I hesitated at the door, causing Ethan to look at me curiously."Do you need something?" he finally asked, noticing I hadn't stepped inside."Are you heading back to your room?" My question made Ethan raise an eyebrow.It seemed silly, and I could tell he thought so, too."Aren't you scared of sleeping alone?""Honestly, yeah. I've never really gotten used to it.

    Claire P.O.VAfter tidying up and getting dressed that morning, I headed downstairs with Ethan. A spread of different dishes awaited us at the dining table, along with Lucy, who was sitting there spreading butter and a bit of jam on a piece of bread.Just like the day before. Lucy looked stunning. Her wavy hair flowed freely, swaying with every movement of her head. It was gorgeous, and I can't count how many times I've said it, but Lucy truly deserves all the compliments."What time did he call?" Ethan asked, giving Lucy a quick kiss on the lips.It was 7:30 AM when he called to say he was at Hong Kong airport and would be there in an hour."Whose plane is he on?""I'm not sure, but it might be your jet. Before you decided to head home, I overheard Danny chatting with someone about the plane.""Ugh, he better cover the expenses." Ethan was annoyed but quickly took his usual spot in the front seat reserved for the family leader.Ethan and Lucy's chat felt so effortless, like they were

    Claire P.O.VWhat?! A Fiancee?My hands were trembling after I heard that news. My breathing got out of whack because I was in shock, realizing that my gut feeling was spot on. Ethan and Lucy aren't just dating; they're engaged.I shouldn't have been too shocked, but wasn't I supposed to be his destined mate? I'm his Luna, right? So why does he have a fiancée? A million questions raced through my mind, especially why Ethan would do this to me.Before I could process it all, the car pulled up to the airport. Ethan, after dropping the bomb about Lucy being his fiancée, just went quiet. He didn't even try to explain why he brought me to this Pack when he was already committed to someone else. A She-Wolf he chose to be with.I kept my head down and took hesitant steps as I trailed behind Ethan toward the airport's main lobby. Tears were on the verge of spilling, but I fought to hold them back. I didn't want Ethan to see me cry and think I was weak."Oh my god! I've been trying to reach yo

    Ethan P.O.V"Did she ever meet Lucy?" Chen Lien suddenly threw that question at me. Naturally, I replied with a yes.When I probed him about it, he shot me a smile laced with anger, which sparked another question in my mind."Why's that?""You're being too reckless.""What do you mean by that?"He looked at me like I had committed some major blunder, and it seemed to disappoint him more than anything. Usually, no matter how poorly I perform, Chen Lien always finds something nice to say. But right now, everything just feels off."Now look at her; she's probably super jealous, which could mess up our whole plan."Jealous? Why would he even feel that way? That's ridiculous.""If I'm just rambling, then why did he rush to his room? He didn't say a word to you, did he?""Can you just drop it? I don't want to hear this.""But you need to consider it if you want to get what you're after, right? Just remember to be nice to him first." He said as he strolled off.Seeing Chen Lien walk away mad

    Claire P.O.V I let out a sigh and leaned back in my chair. No matter how long Chen Lien and I had been friends, it felt like I could never really understand what was happening in her head. We might as well have been strangers."What if I don't treat her right?" I muttered, glancing up at the ceiling with another long sigh. I shouldn't have acted so childishly in front of Ethan and his friends, who had always been decent to me. Not that I could call what they did a real favor.It was too early to hit the hay, but I felt awkward to walk outside. Embarrassed and guilty about my behavior, I just sat on the edge of the bed, staring out the window at the tall trees in the forest.I had been living in a dorm but found peace whenever I wandered into the little forest behind it. A short stroll there would help clear my mind instead of obsessing over the silly stuff about Ethan and Lucy.After thinking, I finally left the room and headed to the forest to clear my head.

    Ethan's P.O.VJust like yesterday, Claire was nowhere to be seen at the dining table. I wanted to order someone to go fetch her, but with Lucy here, I couldn’t risk it. After everything I discussed with Andara Spectra last night, it felt safer to keep Claire far away from Lucy. “You remember we still have that meeting with Lady Apike, the wolf noble from the Lycan clan, right?” Lucy suddenly broke the silence during our meal. “I know. I’ll—” “She wants to meet your ‘real’ Luna. The one chosen by the Moon Goddess.” Lucy cut me off, her words making my chest tighten in shock. Wait, meet my real Luna? Was she implying I had to bring Claire to this meeting? “Why would I do that? There’s no reason for it.” I refused with a single sentence, hoping she wouldn’t speak again or say things like this. Because honestly, the more I heard, the more uncomfortable I felt.Right. I couldn’t possibly bring Claire. That meeting might spell trouble for her—especially for the child she’s carrying.

    Ethan’s POV“What did you say? What are you getting at?” I asked them fow what they saying.Andara smiled. There was nothing sinister in her manner or speech. I recognized that, but hearing her speak about things I didn't understand, why should I trust her?“You don't have to believe me, Alpha. However, you should know that Lady Halle's mental state worsens day by day. When she came to me today, there was no happiness on her face. Even when I told her she was pregnant, it was as if she wanted to terminate the child—”I was furious, but as I moved toward Andara to throttle her, Oscar stepped between us, preventing me from doing anything.“What do you mean by ‘terminate’?” I growled. I demanded answers for all the words they said to me.“A Luna like Lady Halle wouldn't think to argue with your fiancée, Lady Torrance, who is the daughter of an Alpha from the Western territories. I don't recommend such a course either, but if Lady Torrance learns of this before you do, the worst-case scen

    Ethan’s POVSince my return, I still haven’t seen Claire or the others. Even the warriors I assigned to protect her are nowhere in sight. Are they really okay? No. I’m worried. Ever since Lucy came back, something feels off. She’s way more sensitive than before—edgy even—and has gotten harsher and more arrogant compared to what I remember. Not that I mind her attitude. Honestly, I’ve been worse, especially when it comes to how she’s been treating Claire. One thing’s crystal clear: Lucy’s acting this way because she wants Claire gone from the packhouse. It’s obvious. No woman wants another woman hanging around her man. Even though Lucy isn’t my Luna, we’ve been together long enough for her to know me better than most—though maybe not all the way to my core. Back from work, I’m on the back balcony, staring at the massive yard and the door leading to the forest beyond. I used to leave that area unguarded. But after Claire was kidnapped, I couldn’t afford to make that mistake ag

    Claire's P.O.V"Why do you seem much gloomier than the last time we met, Lady Halle?" Andara Spencer handed me a cup of warm tea.It was the same question that had been asked by several people I had met recently. Am I really that gloomy? Do I really show my jealousy so clearly on my face for everyone to see?I shook my head. "I've just been feeling a bit more tired than usual lately," I replied."Oh, have you consulted with a doctor at the mansion?" This time Andara looked worried.The woman who indirectly became the mediator and leader of the Rogue Wolves in this neutral forest area had openly shown her concern for me since we first met, when I was kidnapped to this place.I had heard that Andara was a former Elder who held power in The Moon Fall Pack, but unable to endure the cruelty of Christopher Gale, the false Alpha, Andara fled and eventually joined the Rogue Wolves."Lady Halle prefers to rest in her room rather than call a doctor. And she always insists that she is fine," Oct

    Ethan's P.O.VI saw her walking away with Danny. She looked quite thin compared to the last time I saw her. I'm not sure if she lost a lot of weight or not. The servants also said she’s been eating too little lately—much less than when we were in the Philippines.I still remember how she bought so much food that it drained quite a bit of my savings account just to fill her belly during those days in the Philippines."Ethan, you remember our meeting with Sir Huggess is in an hour, right? Why don’t we hurry?" Lucy's voice shattered my focus.I quickly shifted my gaze from Claire. I knew Lucy would be furious if she realized I was being too excessive."I get it. What about the preparations?" I asked to her."My assistant will handle what Danny was supposed to do."Ah, holy crap! I should’ve just sent Gilbert along with the strongest Warriors to guard Claire and that old woman in the forest, not Danny, so I wouldn’t make Lucy this angry."Danny has far better skills than Gilbert.

    Claire's P.O.VIt's been a week since I last talked to Chen Lien. Ever since our fight, everything has felt awkward. It's as if I'm trying to cover up my own anger, and then I take it out on someone else.It's really embarrassing, maybe I should apologize to him when we meet again later.However, since that day I haven't seen Chen Lien, I have been spending more time in my room, and even my appetite has gotten worse since returning from the Philippines. Almost no food can go into my mouth, and everything I smell seems really bad, even though it looks delicious."This is horrible, how am I supposed to get my revenge on Christopher Gale if I can't even get food into my body?" I mumbled while lying down and hugging my bolster pillow.The smell of this mattress has completely become my own, nothing left. I had hoped there would be some of Ethan's scent left, but there's absolutely nothing I can smell from Ethan.Oh, my God... What was I thinking? Hasn't Ethan not come here ever since Lucy

    Claire's P.O.V"Are you alone waiting for dawn in this place, my lady?"Chen Lien startled me as I sat and looked at the forest, which seemed much calmer than my mind. I'd heard he had returned from work but hadn't seen him at the dining table. So I chose to wait for him here instead of asking Ethan.I don't know why, but I felt he would come if I waited, as if he knew I was thinking about him and hoped to chat with him."What took you so long?" I said, making him jump."Were you waiting for me?""Of course, I hoped to talk to you about a few things, but you took so long I forgot what I wanted to say.""Oh, woe is me for not arriving sooner. Should I turn back time?"I chuckled. "Why would you want to turn back time? It wouldn't be fun because you wouldn't get the same surprise after I told you I forgot what to say.""Oh, crap! I'd still have to pretend to be surprised."I couldn't stop laughing. It felt like I was chatting with my best friend, even though Chen Lien was merely Ethan R

Is it because she's still thinking about what I said, about explaining everything to her after a week?Honestly, I didn't want to say this, but seeing her like this, I feel like I have no choice. But of all the things I've learned, one thing still baffles me—the bodies of the orphans and the nuns.Because, of all the bodies that should have been there, only Sister Maria's remained. She was the nun killed by the Shadow Warrior back then. Nothing else was left."What are you thinking about?" Chen Lien snapped me out of my reverie. "Has something happened?""It's about Claire," I said."What's wrong with her now?" he looked worried.Of course, Chen Lien would be worried. The last time I remember, he declared that he liked Claire right in front of me. And because of that, he never strayed too far from this place, just to make sure Claire was still okay in my hands

    Claire's P.O.VAfter getting back from the Philippines, I barely saw Ethan. He was mostly buried in work, though he didn’t need to travel overseas like before. Danny mentioned that his duties in the Pack were keeping him busy enough, so no more far-flung trips.Naturally, Danny stuck to me like glue, always around as if Ethan had ordered him not to leave me alone for a second.Besides that, I hardly ever saw Lucy Torrance hanging around the packhouse. No clue what went down with them, but since we returned, things seemed a bit off between Ethan and Lucy."Anything else you need, Lady Halle?" Danny asked, ever so polite.What did I just hear? It's quite unpleasant, although I can't outright refuse, but to be honest I don't have much confidence in myself to get all these things full of manners."You gotta stop treating me like that," I said to him. "Just treat me like you did when I first arrived. No need to be so formal with me, and don’t make me feel like I deserve special treatment."
