Claire P.O.V"Why'd you bring me along?""You've asked this more than five times. Is it that interesting to keep asking?""There are a lot of inconsistencies in your reasons for bringing me. But it doesn't sound too bad if Lady Torrance isn't at the packhouse for a while like you said."Ethan was affected by my words. He glanced at me with a sharp look that should have scared me as usual, but I tried not to be influenced this time. So I looked at him as if I was never afraid of him."You're too bold to speak like that in front of me, Lady Halle.""For the first time, you call me that. Does it feel like we're someone who knows each other in an honourable condition? Oh, of course not. You raped me on the second day we met, and you are the only one responsible for me right now.""Why should I do that?" he asked.I should have answered immediately. But instead, I just rolled my eyes, looking out the window, showing a cityscape I didn't recognize. The Philippines, a country that seemed lik

Claire P.O.VDanny has been the Beta and Ethan Randall's right-hand man for nearly two decades. It's quite the perk for Danny; besides being the Beta, he knows the ins and outs of the money-printing business owned by the Alpha, the ruler of The Silver Fire Pack.Danny didn't answer my question immediately. He just stared at me with his light brown eyes—warm and bright colours, especially in the summer."Is it because the Alpha already has a fiancée that this is bugging you?"Finally, he replied. Even though it wasn't what I wanted to hear, it was impressive because Danny responded to my seemingly dumb question."Isn't that obvious?" I shot back. "If you're guarding someone who isn't your Luna, it's a waste of your time 'cause you're serving a stranger who will never be tied to your Pack.""Why do you think that? Isn't that the reason Alpha Ethan lets me be here? Is it because he's trying to keep you around? So—""Keep me around for what?" I cut him off. "Even the people I loved are no

Claire's P.O.VI've been waiting for Ethan Randall for almost thirty minutes now, with no clue what he's up to behind that worn-out wooden door.Propping up my chin, I yawn a few times, feeling bored. This place feels alien to me. Plus, all these strangers keep glancing at me, judging me with their eyes, acting like I don't belong there.I didn't plan on staying long, but I had no choice. I can't even talk to Danny, who's making sure I don't say anything about Christopher Gale. Because of that, I can't interrogate anyone.I scan the room, leaning on my chin. Nothing interesting, just a bunch of people giving me dirty looks. It feels like they're about to eat me alive."When are they gonna be done?" I ask Danny, who's still eyeing me suspiciously.Is he scared I'll talk about Christopher Gale? If that's the case, I think Christopher Gale has something I need to know. It's absurd for a fake Alpha like him to run a pack as big as The Moon Fall Pack.Of course, there is no way a fake Alph

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

Claire P.O.VI should've known what to do with the offer from Christopher Gale. I'm not good at making decisions, but I also need to learn something about Christopher Gale and Ethan.But asking Ethan or Chen Lien directly feels like a conversation with my demise. Where else could I get information about this guy if not from Ethan or Chen Lien?I stared at Ethan, who hadn't moved an inch from his seat. This was rare, considering that during our trip to Shanghai a while back, Ethan was too busy to sit for even a minute at the villa, especially after our night market adventure. I spent more time with Chen Lien. But now, Chen Lien was nowhere to be seen.Since we returned to The Silver Fire Packhouse, my movements were restricted by Lucy Torrance's presence. Not because of her presence but because I didn't want to cause any drama with Ethan's fiancée.And the entire day after returning to the Silver Fire Pack, I holed up in my room, avoiding everyone, especially Lucy, who was always looki

Ethan P.O.VChen Lien placed a plastic bag containing a finger and several human teeth before me. Quite a sight to see, especially after I was so angry at the owner of these items on the plane yesterday.Feeling like I'd just been handed the sweetest gift, I smiled as I lifted the bag to examine it from above. "Look at this, how beautiful it is," I praised."I also got this from Don Azacha's kids," Chen Lien said, handing me a red folder filled with some very important papers, given their unpredictable source."Looks like they've figured out your moves from how you've been beefing with Alesio Huggman. So, after I handed over what you ordered, they immediately gave this to me."I put the bag of fingers and teeth back on the table and turned my attention to the folder Chen Lien had handed me. Upon opening it, I was surprised to find property deeds and land certificates for the entire Chengzu district. This is a stroke of luck I'll never get twice in a lifetime. Just by giving something

Ethan's P.O.VKill Claire Halle. Maybe that's the only way to break free from this bond. There might be other ways to sever our connection, but none seem as effective as killing Claire to cut all ties.Yet, a part of me rejects this plan. Killing isn't new to me—I've done it since I was thirteen. But I've never killed someone close to me. Sure, I've killed prostitutes who were spies for my business rivals, but never someone I slept with willingly.It's almost dawn, but I can't sleep. Usually, I'm more comfortable in foreign places than with my own Pack because I don't have to deal with Pack matters or see Lucy.I walk to the window and see that Shanghai's night is still bright, even though it's almost dawn. It should be quiet outside, with only the guardians on duty, but I see Chen Lien and Claire enjoying a bottle of wine and some food.I cross my arms, watching Chen Lien finish his work without reporting to me. Besides, didn't Claire eat a lot of snacks at the night market and even

Claire P.O.VI tossed the food wrapper I just finished into the trash can that wasn't too far from us. Even though Ethan initially wanted us to leave the place immediately, I still wanted to enjoy the night outside the big villa, which felt stuffy, so we ended up staying here."You sure you don't wanna leave yet?""Of course. This is fun. Hearing street music that's different from my old place, seeing people with different clothes and ways of speaking, even different languages. It's just too fun to miss," I answered.Ethan clicked his tongue in annoyance and laughed at what I said. "Huh, what kind of nonsense are you talking about? You never even left that church dorm for years, right? So why are you talking like you're actually enjoying something you've missed?""I didn't go out often. But didn't I say that I often went with Sister Alberta to attend some important masses at big churches in several Packs? There's no reason for me to feel that this is my first time in a foreign place,

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 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
