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.

    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. I wasn't sure what kind o

    Claire P.O.VChen Lien handed me a plate piled high with crepes, grilled sausage, tacos, a sandwich slice, and a soda. It felt like too much food, especially since he had a meal."Why just stare? Dig in! At least if you're full, you won't be tempted to do something silly like wandering into the woods.""I've done that plenty of times.""You might know where you're headed, but you have no clue about the dangers lurking around," he replied, taking a bite of his sandwich.I watched him as a few strands of his long hair danced in the breeze, and his jawline looked striking from the side. I've seen a lot of Asian guys on TV, and they're definitely good-looking with those soft features, but I never imagined they could look this stunning up close."Why are you looking at me like that?"I was caught off guard when Chen Lien noticed me staring. I quickly turned my head, but then he shot me a grin, showing off his dimple on just one side."Do I seem like a stranger, or maybe a bit sinister?" he

    Ethan P.O.VI felt a gentle warmth on my chest while I was out on the balcony, taking a puff. Lucy wrapped her arms around me, planting soft kisses on my back. It was the same sweet kiss I always got, and I should be feeling over the moon with all this love from her. But honestly, it just feels hollow right now."What's on your mind?" Lucy asked, her hand resting on my abs. It tickled a bit, but it didn't really spark anything."I'm just trying to figure out how to make a solid offer for the exchange," I said.But that wasn't the real thought running through my head. There was something more profound, but I kept it simple to avoid stirring up unnecessary drama between us.Lucy shifted, now standing before me, wrapped only in a sheet, with nothing else on her.Her curves are so perfectly shaped; I can't help but want to touch them all the time. Honestly, after we hook up, I just want to chill and enjoy that moment."How about we devise a clever plan to buy some time until Christopher G

    Claire P.O.VI pushed Ethan away from me, and it felt like I was trying to move a massive tree—heavy and totally zapping my energy."Can you just back off a bit?""Why should I?""Because you're giving off way too many pheromones. It's like drowning in a bucket of perfume I'm not a fan of." I explained.I even took a few steps back to keep his scent from mixing with Lucy's. I don't hate his pheromones since he's my mate, but how they blend with She-Wolf's scent is just not cool for us.The mixed scent hit me hard, and I had to swallow. It was really uncomfortable to keep breathing it in. I even turned my face away from Ethan, secretly hoping he'd get mad and just walk away."Are you with Lucy? Why are you still here? Go meet her." I spun around, trying to shake off this guy who was way too hard to resist.No way. I could say no. I'd probably do it when I realized there was no reason for me to stick around with him, even if the moon goddess had other plans for us. The strength of our b

    Claire P.O.V"What are you up to over there?" Ethan asked, looking pretty annoyed.I could see the frustration and irritation written all over his face. It felt like he had come here just to take it out on me. But honestly, I didn't want to let it bother me.He stepped closer, and I noticed he looked more put together that afternoon. Like Chen Lien mentioned, Ethan and I had been busy with something outside.His long black coat fluttered a bit as he moved. I wasn't sure when he started wearing it, but I could still see his cologne mixed with Lucy's scent.Sure thing! No one could break their bond, especially with all those pheromones flying around when they were together."Are you trying to make a run for it?" he asked, just a short distance away.What was that all about? If I really wanted to, I might have pulled a Chen Lien and jumped out the window. But here I was, stuck in this situation, not wanting to make things worse."If I wanted to leave, why are you still here with me?" Eth

    Claire P.O.VI shoved Ethan back hard enough that he slammed against the bathroom wall. He looked pretty upset, but I wasn't about to let him keep holding onto me like he had any control over the situation."How could you do this to me?""Just get out! Didn't you get what you came for?" I shot back, feeling furious.After that, I jumped in the shower and sprayed water all over him, soaking and making him even angrier. I noticed Ethan trying to inch closer, but the water I directed at him felt like my shield. I could still back away a bit until he finally gave up.He shot me a sharp look, and for a moment, the guy just froze, then suddenly yanked the shower from my hands. I was terrified, thinking Ethan might lash out at me for what I did, but instead, he just gripped the shower with this icy stare before tossing it to the floor."I'll be waiting for you downstairs in twenty minutes." He said that and then walked out.Watching him storm off, soaked and furious, I felt guilt. But I'd be

    Ethan P.O.VI stood up and said, "I don't think this chat is going anywhere anymore."There was still a lot of food left on my plate, but I chose to get up from the table. The longer I stayed, the more pointless my talk with Chen Lien felt."Alpha,"Called out an old man named Ethan as he stepped out of the dining room.Ethan glanced back at the elderly man seated with us at the table. It was Elder Elvis, a pretty impressive figure as long as he held his position. Elvis hardly ever paid attention to my business or anything else, for that matter.But look at him now. He called my name without even glancing at me."What do you need, El?""She's your destined mate, right?""What do you want?""Your job is to protect her, but trying to mould her into what you want will drive you crazy. So, quit being unfair and figure out who you'll make Luna in this Pack.""What does that even mean? Am I not the top candidate for Luna in this Pack? Why are you still doubting what's obvious?"

    Claire P.O.VI looked up when I heard Ethan's voice from above. I thought I'd slipped away unnoticed, but I was totally wrong. There he was, standing on the balcony over the garden, giving us that same annoying, condescending look he always has.While I sat there in silence, the Elder, an old lady, got up. She bowed her frail body and smiled as she greeted him. Honestly, I don't want to be like her because Ethan is more of a jerk than a true Alpha."Why are you here, Alpha?" Octa asked, sounding all polite and friendly."Don't make me repeat myself, Octa."Octa grinned, "Is it a problem that I'm here?""No one asked for your input. Go to your room, and you too, Claire Halle," Ethan commanded again.I was the one who held back from responding to Ethan, and it turned into a whole argument. So, I sighed, got up, and touched Octa's shoulder. With a smile, I said,"Come on inside. The Alpha has given his orders." Octa smiled back at me.But just as I was about to pull Octa up, that Old Lady

    Ethan's POVI felt a whole lot better seeing her get into the car. Even though I didn't go with her, it was a relief to watch her willingly get into the car driven by my Warrior. Much better than when she left the mansion on foot, with no clue where she was heading.Plus, I'm glad she didn't try to hide her pregnancy from me, she tell everyting and let me know about her feeling about that baby. Her simple admission that she didn't want to build a family with me made sense, considering I've been a jerk."Alpha, I heard Lady Halle is heading to Lake Terara to calm down." One of my warrior tell me after he had the report.Lake Terara? That's a bit far from the packhouse, but it's alright since that area is guarded by Gilbert, the Gamma. No need to worry about her safety."Tell Gill I'll pick her up before sundown if she refuses to come back to the mansion.""I will, Alpha," the Warrior replied.All my Warriors have special communication devices—kind of like a mindlink in a gadget form th

    Claire's POVI couldn't shake off the shock when Ethan said he wanted to see this baby born before helping me avenge Nurse Alberta's death."So you—already knew that—""I told you from the start, since the first time we met, that no matter how well you do it, you can't hide anything from me. Besides, no Alpha would be unaware that their offspring is on the way," he said, his eyes fixed on my belly.I covered my stomach with both hands, hoping he'd stop staring."Why do you look scared? Shouldn't you be proud that you're carrying my child? Even though I don't lead the largest pack like The Moon Fall Pack, I hold the title of the strongest Alpha. Isn't that enough to make the baby proud?""There will never be pride for a baby born from me when I don't have an Alpha by my side," I said without hesitation. "No matter how hard I try, I'll just see you marry Lucy Torrance, and then you'll discard us once you get what you want from me. So, can't you help me avenge the deaths of the nurses an

    Ethan’s POV“You—you’ve gotta be joking, right? His niece? How the hell am I his niece?!” Claire screamed, leaping to her feet with rage burning in her teary eyes. She couldn’t believe it—she was related to the bastard who slaughtered her family. The man who wiped out an entire bloodline, a legacy that should still be ruling the Moon Fall Pack. Every head in the garden snapped toward us. People whispered, curious and confused about the commotion. But Claire? She wasn’t overreacting—far from it. Learning that the monster who destroyed her life shared her bloodline was enough to break anyone. I reached out a hand and gently motioned for her to sit down. “Claire, let me explain everything,” I said, hoping to calm the storm inside her. At first, she resisted, too consumed by the whirlwind of emotions. She stayed on her feet, trembling, letting her anger overflow. But I didn’t pull my hand back, holding out hope she’d take it. Minutes passed. Slowly, reluctantly, she sat, her tension

    Ethan's P.O.VClaire's expression hasn't changed since I dropped the bomb. She still looks like she's just been hit with a truckload of surprise. Honestly, she shouldn't be so shocked. After all, Claire has been digging into this for a while, and she definitely knows more than she lets on."You're Jacob Wensiker's one and only his daughter," I repeated.“No, it’s not ….” She shook her head, ignore what I say to her.“Yes, yo’re. And you know that I'm telling you the truth.”"So, you're saying that I should be the Alpha of The Moon Fall Pack?" she asked.That is an incredible speculation. It is true that when the previous Alpha dies, the decendants will take its place. However, in this case, Claire wasn’t the next Alpha after Christhoper Gale gone. Unlike me, I immediately took my father's place when he died.Perhaps that will happen to Claire as well. Since she might not be considered worthy yet, the leadership might fall into Beta's hands, only to be handed over to her after being de

    Ethan's P.O.VI parked my car in the park's lot, a central hub of activity for this pack. Almost everyone here knows who I am, and now, they're all staring at me with curiosity but too afraid to approach or ask questions.I led Claire to a corner of the park. We sat on the grass, surrounded by others, and pulled out the food we bought, making us the center of attention. Because even though it is a park, it is the center of the crowd. Everyone in this Pack uses this area as the center of their lives. Whether it's a school, shops, a shopping center, a recreation center, or just a place to look for something small.But I didn’t care. I let them see Claire, who they would know for the rest of their lives as my Luna. Although they all knew that I was engaged to Lucy Torrance, they also had to know that this wanta was really my Luna.“You still haven’t answered my question,” Claire began impatiently.Yeah, not that she's been a patient girl, but when it comes to the deaths of the sisters an

    Ethan's P.O.V“First things first, what do you want to eat?” I asked after we turned off the packhouse area toward the outskirts of town.Ever since she agreed to get into the car, Claire had only looked out the window, avoiding eye contact with me. For some reason, that made me a bit disappointed.Yeah, disappointed. A word I never imagined I would use to describe my own feelings.A word I never thought I would feel for anyone except myself, as I have always been perfection itself, with nothing else measuring up.“I want an iced coffee with a little caramel, some burgers with different flavors and sauces, and... I really crave pickles.” She answered suddenly after a moment of silence.Wow, sounds like she’s having cravings. But of course, she would. If she didn't, she would stay locked in her room, eating everything brought to her.However, she didn’t do that. Claire often ignored the food and left it untouched outside her door until the servants brought fresh meals again.It sounded

    Claire’s P.O.VDid I just do something terrible? No. Why am I even thinking that? I should be grateful that I managed to stand up to Lucy and retort back. After all, I am the Luna of that Pack, aren’t I?But what do I do now? If I go back, Lucy Torrance won’t let me breathe. She’ll find ways to bully or hurt me, and if that happens, then this baby... no, I can’t let that happen.Even though I didn't want this baby to be here now, it's still my baby. Even if Ethan might not want it, this baby will still be mine.But where do I go from here? I walked aimlessly and suddenly found myself outside the mansion gates, wandering far until I ended up alone on a forest road leading to who knows where.I sighed, stopping at the side of the deserted road. It was so quiet, just me and the sounds of animals from the forest surrounding the packhouse.When I reached the main gate, I thought the Warriors would stop me, but they opened the gate and let me go. Now I don't know where to go.Just as I was f

    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.

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
