Fern's Perspective
My heart shattered completely; the anger I had suppressed for so long finally erupted. "I'm a human being too. I have my own emotions and dignity! And you... you've likely never regarded me as anything more than a tool to get back at my parents! But let me tell you, this won't achieve what you desire. You're mistaken if you think that regaining the dignity you once lost in front of my parents can be accomplished by humiliating me! On the contrary, Giovanni, your actions only confirm why my parents were so furious the moment they discovered the fateful bond between us, because you're unworthy of their approval, not even mine. Even if you managed to deceive me into accepting you, perhaps your status as the alpha of the most powerful pack makes you believe you're above everyone else. But in my heart, you're still the same rogue my parents adopted."Giovanni clearly didn't anticipate such a strong reaction from me; his expression turned grim as anger flashedGiovanni's PerspectiveThe night enveloped the room in darkness akin to ink, with moonlight seeping through the chilly chamber via the weathered stone windows. It cast a pallid glow upon Fern's face, her expression wrought with pain and helplessness. My punishment of her had just concluded, leaving her still bearing the marks I had inflicted. Fern lay still, her eyes closed, her frail figure almost blending into the shadows that enveloped the room.I reclined nearby, observing Fern with a mixture of emotions swirling within me. Memories from her childhood flooded my mind, memories of a time when she had looked up to me as her older brother. She had been entirely reliant on me then, trusting me implicitly. As I surveyed the scene, a pang of pity and guilt washed over me. Despite my best efforts to bury them, these emotions gnawed at the edges of my conscience, refusing to be silenced.However, any remorse I felt dissipated when I reflected on how all the benevolence ce
Fern's PerspectiveIt had been a few days since I was brought to the Luna Suite.The moment I finally realized that Giovanni had instructed me to stay in this room, I was taken aback by its beauty and by the fact that he had requested my presence here.The truth was, I hadn't seen Giovanni for a long time since that day.It seemed I had been forgotten by him. However, in the back of my mind, I had the vague feeling that Giovanni was deliberately avoiding me.A curious part of me longed to see him again, but I was also terrified. I shook my head, trying to push thoughts of him away.I should be relieved not to have to face that horrible man.I didn't know how I could distract myself from the waiting, but eventually, I found small ways to entertain myself, like reading books.Days turned into weeks, and before I knew it, I started to lose track of time.This day, I took a book from the library
Giovanni's PerspectiveAs Fern's song reverberated through the hall, I sensed an ancient and enigmatic power enveloping the room. Her voice seemed to mingle with the moonlight, each note carrying a touch of magic that resonated deep within me. Bathed in the glow of the lights, Fern appeared akin to a moon goddess, her songs evoking a haunting melody that ensnared the emotions of all present.I had been silently observing Fern, my usual calm and rational demeanor rarely swayed by emotions. Yet, the moment Fern began to sing, I felt a jolt unlike any other. "Damn! She actually chose that song!" I thought in irritation as I struggled to contain the surge of emotions within me. Why would she sing that song? Was she attempting to elicit pity from me?However, I couldn't deny the captivating allure of her song, as if it possessed a mystical power capable of penetrating the depths of my heart and stirring a profound resonance within me. My gaze remained fixed on Fern, her ethereal prese
Fern's PerspectiveAs the knot eased, Giovanni climbed on top of me and lay down beside me. As I sat up partially against the headboard, his arms encircled my waist. He closed his eyes and rested his head on my bare waist.Did he fall asleep just like that?I looked down at him in wonder. He was still here with me — intoxicated, of course, but still present.As the heat began to dissipate, I reflected on what had just occurred. What had truly transpired?I knew it must have been the alcohol that had made him so uninhibited tonight, and that he had only sought physical fulfillment — yet, he asked me to call him by his name. Did that indicate that perhaps, just maybe, he desired me as more than just Alpha Dylan's daughter?I gazed at him, unable to ignore his striking handsomeness. When I closed my eyes, he ceased to be a formidable Alpha, instead transforming into a charming man and my once dear "brother".A whirlwind of emotions engulfe
Giovanni's PerspectiveWhen Beta Tobias reported that Aurora had gone to find Fern, a twinge of worry for Fern actually crossed my mind.Damn, there must be something wrong about me.But when I got to Fern's room, guess what I heard instead?"I wouldn't want someone who wants another person anyway!"At that moment, my anger was palpable. I gave Fern a cold look, unable to express what I felt inside."What are you doing here?" I asked in a suppressed, low voice, almost a growl.Aurora quickly walked up to me. "Giovanni, why is she in the Luna Suite?"My eyes remained fixed on Fern, who was looking up at me as if she hadn't just spoken those words.I clenched my teeth and restrained myself. "Aurora... Get out, go to your room. Beta Tobias, go with her. I'll be right there."Aurora stared at me before she snarled and stormed out of the room.When everyone had left, I turned my gaze to Fern.
Fern's PerspectiveGiovanni had a date with Aurora today, which afforded me a rare and relaxing day.The campfire swayed in the night breeze, its light reflecting on everyone's faces in alternating shades of brightness and shadow.The children of the pack encircled the fire, their laughter and cheers resonating through the air. I joined them, watching the children with tender eyes.Life in this pack was arduous, yet I always found solace in the innocent smiles of these children.They bombarded me with carefree questions: "Ms. Fern, what did you like to do when you were little?" "Ms. Fern, why are you so pretty?"These innocent inquiries brought a smile to my face. Patiently, I answered each one, relishing this moment of tranquility.Then, a child innocently asked, "Ms. Fern, do you have someone you care about the most?" The air instantly grew still, all eyes fixed on me.My smile wavered as my thoughts drifted back to the distant p
Giovanni's Perspective"Hey, here you are!" I greeted Tobias warmly."Yes, Alpha! I came as soon as I heard you needed me," Tobias replied respectfully."How are things going with the pack?" I asked, leaning back in the black leather chair behind the desk."Very well. Perhaps if you're free tomorrow, you'd like to come down and take a look? You'll be pleased with how the pack is doing," Tobias suggested."I would, but I called you here for something else," I continued.Tobias leaned closer, focusing intently. "What do you need, Alpha?"Watching Tobias momentarily tense up made my already pleasant mood even brighter.Yet, he sat there, looking straight at me, making me wonder what he was up to."Why are you looking at me like that?" I asked suspiciously."No offense, Alpha," Tobias began, "but the energy you're exuding is a little unnerving to me. I'm not sure what's going on, but I'm curious."I crossed my arms. "Excuse me
Giovanni's PerspectiveI froze in place for a split second when I heard the man speak. I looked at Aurora and just couldn't believe my ears."Why?" I asked, clenching my teeth as the wolf inside me let out an angry growl, forcing myself to glare at Aurora in anger.Aurora panicked a little at the look in my eyes and glanced at the man next to her as if seeking help."Aurora doesn't need to report anything to you. She can do as she pleases. You're not qualified to restrict her freedom. She's already done enough for you," the man said, nodding towards Aurora first, then stepping to block her body, staring at me viciously.Of course, I understood his mindset. Anyone would want to show their tough side in front of the woman they loved. It was just a pity he chose the wrong opponent!"What the hell do you think you are? Where do you get off talking here?!" I looked at the man with disdain. With the wolf inside me letting out a threatening growl, the man froz
