Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 45. Night Market & The Stranger
Claire P.O.V“How long do you want to stand there? Come in. Didn’t you want to go to the night market like you talked about when you were on a flight?”Ethan urged me to move on. He was already behind the wheel, wearing a grey blazer over a black t-shirt. A t-shirt might not fit his personality, but seeing him in it with that blazer made it work. At least he didn’t look like a gangster.I quickly hopped in, sat right beside him, and buckled up. For a moment, everything seemed normal. But then, I realized this was the first time I’d seen Ethan drive alone. He never did that; even when he picked me up at the beachfront restaurant the other day, he let Danny do that. Never once had he driven himself.Of course, he has plenty of people who’d happily do that for him.“Where’s Chen Lien? Isn’t he coming?” I asked after buckling up.“Now he’s on meeting with another client.”“About your drugs?”Ethan gave a slight smile. “Do you think that’s all my business is about?”“Then what else? Isn’t

Claire P.O.V“I don’t get what you’re saying, sir. Nothing is tying me to Ethan Randall.” I tried to keep eye contact with him, even though deep down, I was terrified.Yes, I was terrified. His eyes held a chilling power that made my feet turn to ice. My body trembled, but I fought to keep it under control. I knew he would relish in my fear, thinking he had won by using Ethan Randall’s name to crush me.The man sighed, exhaling the last cigar smoke, then tossed the half-lit cigar out the window. It looked like he was throwing away trash, but from his actions, it seemed like he was gearing up to say something new to me.“I know you’re a good girl, and it’s not right for you to stay under Ethan Randall’s thumb, especially considering he could ditch you anytime.” Yep, he was getting started.I knew it was a provocation, and I was sure this guy had a problem with Ethan just by seeing him once back then. So, I just shook my head and smiled, responding calmly to everything he said.“I find

Claire POVIt was the third time Agatha and Jane had dumped a bucket of something gross on my head, ruining the outfit I had planned to wear for this morning's prayer service. It was now all dirty and smelled terrible."Ha! Look at you! This is a great lesson for daring to go against Agatha's orders!" Jane laughed as she plopped the empty bucket on my head.The stench was awful. I could tell it was a mix of dishwater and whatever mop they had used.As if that wasn't enough, Jane kicked me, and I ended up on the ground, my clothes now muddy and my body aching."I really don't get it. Why didn't you just choose to disappear? Who gave you the right to stick around and waste our church's money, making our parents spend more just to feed you?" Agatha kept ranting while banging the bucket on my head. The noise was unbearable and made my ears ring.I yanked the bucket off, and the horrible smell and noise got to me. I tossed it away, making Jane and Agatha even angrier.Agatha grabbed my ha

Ethan P.O.V I kicked the blood-soaked body several times in front of me. Lying on the floor, he didn't move at all except for a moan that escaped his lips. It didn't matter if he would die if I kept doing it or not, but the upset I felt was still insatiable, as if I wouldn't stop if this man hadn't died. "Get Gilbert here." My orders. Frightened, he ran out of the room to call a man named Gilbert. While waiting, I pulled a handkerchief out of my pocket to wipe away the blood on my black shoes. It was disgusting; it was the first time my shoes had been soiled like this by someone whose life wasn't worth a penny. Finished wiping and throwing a dirty handkerchief full of blood on the man's face, I walked back to my table, poured vodka into a glass, and then drank it greedily. There were not enough glasses, so I poured another and drank it to the end. The one I had asked Gilbert to bring returned with an old man only briefly after that. His bald head was only slightly above the ear

Clare POV "Claire, can you help me clean up the prayer altar after this?" Sister Alberta said, asking for something that has become my daily routine. Nodding, I replied, "Of course, Sister, I'll do it after the cooking is finished." "You can ask Andy and Vicky to accompany you." "They must be tired. I must not interrupt their rest time after school. I'll do it myself, so just let them rest," "What a good girl, thank you, and don't forget to change the plaster on your forehead, it will heal in two days." I nodded. I was very happy when Nurse Alberta worried about me. It felt like I had a mother, although I never knew who my real mother was. After finishing lunch, I helped Sister Alberta prepare dinner. Then, I immediately did my daily duty: I cleaned the prayer altar for use the next morning. No one was in the church that afternoon, not even Hendrik, who was usually there to finish his work. I went to the priest's house, a little distance away, because Hendrik and the pries

Clare P.O.V I gasped when Sister Maria touched the scarf I was wearing. Turning around and holding the scarf, I awkwardly responded to Sister Maria, who looked at me in confusion. "Clare, did something happen when you bought the eggs earlier?" Sister Maria was curious. I shook my head, then tried to find an excuse. I smiled while tightening the scarf around my neck. "No. Nothing happened, sister. I was just a little lost and cold." Hearing that, Sister Maria felt so guilty. She apologized, took my hand, stroked it, and said, "I don't remember if you've ever been there. I'm sorry. Since I heard there's a new convenience store around the church, I thought if you knew, I would ask you to buy some eggs there." "But I managed to buy the eggs, right? Sister, needn't worry. I've also come home and feel a little warm now." I said, leaving Sister Maria to wash all the dirty dishes at the dinner table. "Clare, you can do that tomorrow, it's cold outside, don't take too long, come in and

Claire P.O.V"Why do you keep looking at me like that?" I'm getting fed up with what that guy next to me has been up to. He paid for all the food that Jane and Agatha ordered, then took off with Hendrik, leaving me hanging at the restaurant.I even tried to find them at the beach, but surprise, surprise, they weren't there, and Agatha's car was gone too. They might pull something like this, but I wanted to tag along. Am I just being naive? That's not what they had in mind. They put me in a tough spot and made me look like a fool in front of everyone."Hey! Stop staring at me like that!" I shot him a glare because he wouldn't stop."Do you even realize who I am and where you stand?"My heart skipped a beat when he said that. I stared at the sand under my feet, noticing a few grains stuck in my shoes. It took me back to when I first met him and how my body reacted.Thinking about guys like Hendrik is different. Whether we touched hands or not, there was never any spark. But with this g

Ethan P.O.VI was swinging the chair back and forth, playing my hand. My thoughts were a bit hazy; so much was going on that it felt overwhelming, like I couldn't catch my breath."Alpha, how much longer are we going to hang out here? We wrapped up our deal last night, and Alonso in Rome is already on the move. They've got hundreds of millions ready for a contract with Sir Chen Lien.""Come on, Danny, give it a rest! Can't you see I'm deep in thought?" I replied without looking at him, but I caught him shaking his head out of the corner of my eye.Danny shook his head. "Nah, all I notice is you fiddling with your chair."I shot him a glare, stood up, and faced him. "I was reflecting on that woman we spotted last night at the deal. Can't you get that this goes beyond just cash?""What are you saying, Alpha? She's not your Mate, so why are you even thinking about her over money?""Yes, she is.""W—what?""I didn't invite you over just to make fun of me messing around with my chair. But

Claire P.O.VIt feels totally insane. 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?"
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 43. A Cigar & Bastard
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
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 42. A Smoke & The Phone
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.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

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.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

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
