"So fast?"

"I have to. And it's best if you don't disclose my new address to anyone," Charlotte said.

Bella didn't realize that Charlotte had Derik in mind when she said 'anyone'; she had just thought of any random person.

"Okay, Charlly."

Suddenly, a familiar car appeared in front of her. The door opened, and Derik got out of the car. Just like earlier, he was still holding a bunch of flowers and smiling at her.

The moment she saw him, her eyes turned. Derik walked in front of her and handed the flowers to her. "Congratulations, the defense is over." She extended her hand and received the flowers. "Thank you."

"Why are you so down? Isn't the result ideal? In my opinion, you are someone who can never go wrong."

She tried her best to control her emotions. She pursed her lips and smiled but didn't say anything.

Derik frowned. "Looks like you really have something on your mind. What's wrong?"

    Charlotte immediately jumped away from him and turned around to glare at him, "if you keep acting like this, I won't be coming around anymore."He looked at her blushing face and didn't make a fuss. He sat down and looked at the food in the lunchbox: a sandwich, chicken wings, fried rice."You did all this?""Sure did. I owe you, so I figured I should repay you properly.""Join me for lunch!" Derik insisted."Oh, no, I just finished eating. I'm stuffed.""Then watch me eat.""Derik!" she exclaimed.Derik raised his eyebrows, as if to say, "What's the problem?""I have work!""So do I. Are you more busy than i am?"Charlotte felt a little embarrassed. "Since you're so appreciative," he continued, "why don't you just stay and eat with me!"At this point, it wasn't a request; it was a command from Derik to her.She picked up her fork and dug into the food alongside Derik.

    "Charlotte, are you okay?""Derik? Derik!" Charlotte said as she grabbed Derik and hugged him tightly.Derik wrapped his arms tightly around Charlotte, so tight she felt a little discomfort, but she didn't pay much attention to it as her heart was beating fast."Derik, I'm so scared!""Why? What happened? Talk to me!""I miss my mom! Sometimes, she yells my name, telling me she needs to tell me something. I feel so scared that I might never hear whatever she intends on telling me! I'm so scared that the Lockwoods who caused her death will go scot-free. I'm so scared I might end up like..." At this point, Charlotte was already tearing up as she tried to finish her sentence."Shhh," Derik cut her off, "It's okay, Charlotte! Don't feel scared, I am here for you. I will always be by your side. Always remember that, okay?" His tone was steady and reassuring while his gaze was fixed on her.

"But one thing is for sure, Ethan is Sophie's son.""What? So Ethan isn't a Lockwood, and he's also my mom's son?""Yes! How can that be?" Charlotte laments."It only means one thing: your mom Sophie had a lover back then before she met the Lockwoods. The question is, who?""My mom!" she mutters.Derik places his hands around Charlotte's shoulder, who is going confused."What else have you done?""I've snatched more than half of their customers.

You were allowed to vilify me behind my back, and I wasn't allowed to rebel? Do you think I'm so easy to bully?""Can you stop this nonsense?""I'm spouting nonsense?

    “Mom?” she managed to utter in disbelief with a trembling voice. “Is that really you, Mom?” Charlotte’s mind was clouded. That was definitely Sophie, her mom whom she thought had died years ago, standing right here in front of her. How could that be? What happened? She was so confused. This can't be real. Immediately, Sophie transformed into a human and looked at Charlotte. Charlotte gasped in shock. This wasn’t happening. Her mom was standing right in front of her, her precious mom. “No!” she muttered, shaking her head in disbelief. "But how… How are you here?" she muttered with trembling lips. Charlotte’s legs wobbled at the confirmation of the sight in front of her. She fell to her knees and felt like collapsing due to shock.

He mourned her death, and she... Is he being delusional? “How?” Charlotte i

    "I will kill Derek for you!" she declared. Nathan's heart pounded. He clenched his fists, trying to maintain his composure. "You think I'd trust you?" Jessica coughed weakly, she grinned evily and mischievously, "You don't have to trust me. Just think about it. With Derek out of the way, nothing stands between you and Charlotte. This is similar to what happened years ago with James, and there were no consequences then." Nathan's mind raced. The thought of finally being with Charlotte, free from any obstacles, was tempting. But making a deal with Jessica? It's like dancing with the devil. "Why would you want to help?" "I need your blood to heal, Nathan," Jessica continued. "You help me, and I help you. Simple as that." Isaac stepped forward and whispered just loud enough for Jessica to hear, "Nathan, do you seriously want to trust her? She's manipulative; she isn’t someone who can be trusted!"

He moved to the window, and opened the box, lifting out a necklace. He held the necklace, and remembered, how his mum's words to him. He remembered his mother’s frail hands placing the necklace in his hands, "This has been in our family for generations. Keep it safe.” she whispered, with a mixture of sorrow and pride. The necklace is a family heirloom that had been passed down through the women in his mother’s family. He had promised to keep it safe until he met his one and only mate, Charlotte, whom his heart had always longed for ever since he met her years ago.when he met his other mate, whom died, It was unbelievable He had gone to the coronation of a wolf who was to be crowned Alpha, when he heard his wolf Ragner growled wolf, it unbelievable, because a king as never had two mates before and meeting he

    "Hello, Charlotte, how are you feeling?" Nathan's deep voice interrupted as he walked into the room with his expression serious "How are you feeling?"Charlotte looked at Nathan, then back at Derek, her mind still spinning with confusion and of the recent events. "Nathan, what happened to me? Derek said I transformed... but I don’t understand how or why."Nathan sighed, sitting down beside her bed. "Charlotte, your transformation was unexpected. It seems the Silver Moon Pack holds more secrets than we realized."Charlotte tried to process his words, a mix of fear and surprise, washing over her. "But why now? Why didn’t this happen before?""Sometimes, the first transformation is triggered when your loved one is in danger," Nathan explained gently. "It’s rare, considering the fact that you were born from the great and powerful Sophie Jenner!" He explained, standing and folding his arms, looking more agile."How could that be?"Derek was confused, trying to process whatever Nathan said.

    'What the hell,' Derek muttered in panic as he stepped back in fear.I opened my eyes, wondering what he saw to sound so amazed, but I was stunned by what I saw.I looked around for my figure. I was lost.I couldn't find myself anymore. In my place was a tall, big white wolf.I gasped as I saw the figure, Is this me?I tried to speak, but it came out as a whimper.Anger surged through me as I locked eyes with Jessica, who was trying to escape with Aiden. The audacity!Before I knew it, I was moving, my body was driven by rage, and I launched myself at Jessica. She barely had time to react, stumbling backward as I slashed at her.Jessica's eyes were wide with terror as I immediately launched at her in annoyance.

There were numerous heartbeats and murmurs. Everyone spoke at once, and I could hear it all.What I found strange was how loudly I could hear their heartbeats.

He would never kill a soul!” Charlotte's voice broke. "Jessica, you're lying! My father wouldn't—"Jessica interrupted, her voice dripping with malice. "Believe what you want, Charlotte, but the truth remains. Your precious father was a murderer,” she turned to Derek, “he killed your brother."Nathan, still struggling against the chains, growled, "Jessica, this vendetta of yours ends now.

    The celebration for Aiden's arrival last night had turned into a nightmare.Nathan paced the floor of the meeting room with his mind racing.

"We can't let her get away with this," she said, "Aiden needs us."Derek nodded. "We'll find him, Charlotte. We will!"Nathan turned to his beta, Austin, who had just entered the room.

    As the sun set, casting a warm glow over the pack's territory, Nathan and Austin made their way to the dining hall where the celebration for Aiden's arrival was in full swing. Inside, Derek, Charlotte, and Vincent were already seated, enjoying the festive atmosphere."King Nathan, join us," Vincent called out respectfully.Nathan took a seat beside Charlotte. "Thank you for the gifts, Nathan," she said warmly. "They were very thoughtful.""Anything for the little one," Nathan replied, glancing at Aiden nestled in Charlotte's arms. Derek watched Nathan closely.While everyone seemed to be enjoying the occasion, Nathan didn’t appear to be having a good time. He kept gulping down his wine. His beta, Austin, sitting next to him, couldn't help but stare with a look of hurt and frustration.
