Claire P.O.V

A hard slap hit my left cheek, and it stung like crazy. It was burning and hurt a lot. On top of that, I was bombarded with a torrent of curses and insults. Lucy completely embarrassed me in front of everyone who had come to get me in the middle of the woods, acting like I was some criminal who had just wrecked a Pack.

Meanwhile, everyone, including Ethan, just stood there with blank faces, letting Lucy unleash her fury with all the nasty words she could think of.

"I can't believe you're still letting her stick around in this Pack when she hasn't done anything for us!" Lucy kept throwing those comments at me, making me feel worthless.

"Ethan! Why don't you just reject her? What's the point of keeping someone like her around like this?!"

Everyone was taken aback by Lucy's words. Danny and the Elder, who had joined us after we returned from the forest, exchanged confused glances, clearly puzzled. But Ethan? He didn't seem bothered by what Lucy said about me.

    Ethan P.O.VWhen Christopher Gale’s eyes landed on the second floor, I couldn’t help but grind my teeth in frustration. It was infuriating that that damn Alpha had managed to find her in our Pack.I shifted my position just enough to block Christopher Gale’s line of sight to Claire. I knew she was too headstrong to follow my orders, and with her being here, I figured Chen Lien was also struggling to keep her in check.“You’re being overly cautious, Alpha Ethan,” Christopher Gale said, turning his focus back to me.I thought my little maneuver had distracted him from Claire, but now he looked a bit miffed. Still, I just smiled at the guy with an inflated ego, acting like I had the upper hand. I joked, “Shouldn’t I be on my toes since I’ve got a guest from a big, powerful group like The Moon Fall Pack?”He chuckled at my compliment or somewhat cowardly vibe this time. Honestly, I was the one who suggested giving her a shot at something way bigger than she ever thought she could have. B

    Ethan P.O.VBam!Christopher Gale slammed his fist on the table, clearly furious. I could see his fangs peek out when he smirked, and his eyes glowed a bright gold. His ears began to sharpen, almost like he was on the verge of becoming a wolf just because I mentioned keeping Claire for myself.“Don’t mess with me, Alpha Ethan,” he growled.The Beta and a few warriors with him looked uneasy, and I could already hear Danny’s voice in my head, suggesting he should come in.“I’ve made plenty of promises to those who can bring that woman to me, so what more do you want? Isn’t it enough that I’m offering you what we both desire?”I chuckled while hiding my face. My loud laughter echoed through the spacious room, transforming the quiet into a mix of shock and tension on everyone’s faces.“What makes you think my words are funny?” She was definitely getting riled up. I figured I might have pushed a button.“Of course it was funny, Alpha Christopher,” I replied. “Out of all the secrets no one

    Ethan P.O.VI heard someone knocking on the door repeatedly from outside. Before I could say anything, she swung the door open and walked in, looking confused, her hair a bit damp and her voice shaking.“Did you want me to come here?” she asked.“What happened to your hair?” I brushed off her question and went straight for what I wanted.She was checking herself out. I realized I was mistaken; it wasn’t just her hair that was wet—some of her clothes were, too, and she casually claimed she was okay.This was really frustrating. While I was defending her like a madman in front of Christopher Gale, she was just messing around with me, using words I didn’t appreciate and wearing that annoying look that only she seemed to understand.I was getting really annoyed, so I stepped closer to her. I grabbed her damp hair, forcing her to look up and meet my gaze. Her face shifted, showing real pain, and I could hear a soft groan escape her lips.“W—what are you doing?!”“Why do you have to complic

    Claire P.O.VI felt the thick white liquid melting from my pussy. Meanwhile, I no longer saw Ethan Randall in that room. Not anywhere.When I got up and lowered my legs from the bed, I found my body covered in bluish blotches, starting from my thighs and going all the way down to my collarbone. My body was so sore. It was like I had just fought a grueling battle. Not part of my body could feel; everything was numb.“Ack!”My knees felt completely weak, and I just collapsed. This is wild! What could have driven Ethan Randall to do something so terrible to me?Was it about that shady deal he struck with the Roughs? Or his bond with Chen Lien? Or was it just because I suddenly wished he would turn me down?No way, that’s the whole story. But what’s really going on? If I’m to blame, why did the Rogue Wolves take me instead of Lucy Spencer? She’s been his fiancée all along, right? So why me?I honestly didn’t have the energy to get up, so I just sat there on the floor, trying to forget tha

    Ethan P.O.VMy eyes were glued to Claire and Chen Lien chatting away. It looked super fun, but I just couldn't bring myself to join in. Even though I'm tight with Chen Lien, I can't chat that closely with him without feeling like I'm lowering my self-esteem in front of them.Even though they were just a few steps away, sitting right next to my seat, I had no clue what they were actually talking about. They were laughing like they didn't even think about the trouble I went through yesterday because of what they did. No, not them, but what Claire did.I snorted, turned my face away, and focused on the clouds outside the window. It made me feel a bit better than just watching them chat."Alpha, do you need anything?" Danny suddenly asked after taking a seat in front of me."No. But tell me, are they at the transaction spot yet?""Of course, Alpha. They're already there. But before I told them we were coming, I said we'd be a few hours late because you had other stuff to handle.""Why did

    Ethan P.O.VWhen we all arrived at Hongqiao Airport, just as Chen Lien said, his people were already waiting for us with a few cars parked by the runway. They looked like they'd been waiting since morning, and seeing them open the car doors as soon as I stepped off the plane made me believe that Chen Lien was someone worth considering for a long-term partnership.I took my usual spot in the back seat, followed by Claire, who sat next to me at Chen Lien's request, while he sat in the front with the driver who then drove us away from the airport.Not used to sitting next to Claire, who just stayed silent around me, I rolled down the window and lit a cigarette, letting the smoke drift partly outside and partly towards Claire, making her uncomfortable.As I was enjoying my smoke, my phone rang. I didn't recognize the number, but whoever it was, if they were calling me, it had to be business."You're a real man, Ethan Randall." The voice on the other end was raspy, chuckling, though I had

    Ethan P.O.VAfter ensuring I had control over the situation, Chen Lien and I headed straight to Huang, Shanghai’s biggest gambling district. It’s not as large as Chengzu, but it has enough business space for me.As I puffed on my cigarette, Chen Lien scanned the surroundings, making sure no one was around to interrupt our deal, especially Alesio’s men. That bastard, I’m sure he’ll do anything to get what he hasn’t managed to take from me yet.The car that brought us to the location stopped in front of a small love hotel flanked by large casino buildings on both sides. Even though it was a small hotel, I was pretty surprised when I entered because the people there weren’t ordinary folks; they were all couriers and small-time dealers surviving by scamming and selling a bit of stuff from people like me.Besides them, I also saw a few officials sitting with sexily dressed prostitutes, perfectly curved bodies and round chests prominently displayed, using their charms to entice the perverte

How could I be so mad and lock myself up when I'm in a place I might never get to visit again in my life?So, after I saw Ethan leave with Chen Lien and the others, I went downstairs, planning to explore the whole city—my first time in this foreign place. But when I reached for the door handle, a guard stopped me, asking me not to leave the villa under any circumstances."I just want to look around,” I said.“You still have to wait for Alpha Ethan to come back.""I'm not waiting for that jerk to return. I don't even know where he went or why!" I fumed, feeling like I was arguing over nothing."You can wait in your room until that happens." He tried to touch my hand, but I quickly stepped away. Because I knew if I complied, I'd be locked in that room."Can you cooperate with us?" the man asked. "If Alpha Ethan finds out you escaped, it won't just be you who gets punished; we'll be dead too."I narrowed my eyes. "Dead? Is that your job in contract?"

    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
