Everest gasped in surprise at hearing Taggart's confession. Taggart is a hybrid. It implies that Taggart still harbours the urge to consume blood, much like a vampire, due to half the vampire clan within his body. However, as a hybrid, Taggart can stay strong like a werewolf even though he doesn't drink blood regularly. He consumed the blood only for his additional nutrition to heal wounds or, in some cases, for fun.
Therefore, when Taggart finds his mate, he will imprint her by sucking her blood. What happened before was that Taggart attacked Pearl by biting her neck. Simultaneously, Taggart also could erase the memory traces of what he did to his mate. Without Pearl's recall, she wouldn't remember what happened because Taggart had erased her memory.
"Are you addicted to her? You mean, now you want to taste her blood again?" Everest asked, still with the same disbelieving expression. Taggart nodded without taking his eyes off Everest. He was indeed about his feelings.
Doctor Billy Anderson came early to examine Pearl in her room the next day. He even came before John Rosenthal. Pearl had just woken up and smiled at Billy."How are you?" Billy kindly greets Pearl. Pearl nodded, still smiling."I’m fine, doctor. My sleepiness has disappeared. Much better." Billy smiled and nodded."If you feel better, then I can discharge you today. I think there's nothing to worry about." He added calmly. Pearl was still stunned momentarily, then shifted slightly to get closer."Do I have a serious illness? What happened to me, doctor?" Pearl expressed her curiosity. Billy was stunned, looking at Pearl. He also had many questions about her. He turned his face toward the door. John hasn't arrived yet. Perhaps Billy will use this opportunity to ask her a serious question.Billy brought his face closer, then tilted right and left alternately. Pearl frowned at Billy's strange actions, so she waited."Doctor?" Pearl then
Taggart Kellent finally releases Pearl. The chief medical officer even apologizes to Taggart because Dr. Billy Anderson had spoken harshly. Meanwhile, Pearl cannot talk because John has her not to. Although John doesn't enjoy seeing Taggart's attitude, he doesn't want Taggart to hurt Pearl."Once again, I apologize, Mr. Kellent. Please don't prolong this problem," said the Chief of Medicine, asking for Taggart's understanding. Pearl's brow furrowed. Taggart is so haughty and arrogant. Even though he is younger, his power exceeds everything. He can make the chief of medicine bowed like a loser to him."I will admit my fiancé to a more private and better hospital than this flawed place," Taggart replied, showing his arrogance."I understand if you are disappointed, but we have provided the best assistance for Miss Rosenthal. We will continue to try not to disappoint her and you." The chief of medicine looks disappointed to be begging like that. Despite bein
"Ah, let me go. What do you want?"Taggart's face was still close to Pearl's, who had closed her eyes tightly. Taggart stopped his moves and giggled. Pearl was such a cutie pie. She was sweet and pretty but also adorable simultaneously.When Pearl opened her eyes slowly, she turned slowly to Taggart. Taggart was still examining Pearl, who looked nervous against him. Pearl felt a different, pleasurably intense inside her. It sent shivers down her spine, simulating every part of her body. She could feel her heart pounding like a drum, unable to stop when Taggart stared sharply at her."I will give you a lavish wedding you always dream about. You will love it, Babydoll." Taggart muttered in his husky, sexy tone. Pearl now has more goosebumps all over her skin.Meanwhile, Taggart stared at Pearl intensely. His eyes softened around her. While Pearl looked perplexed, she didn't move at all. Taggart could no longer stop himself. He approached slowly, then kissed
Billy Anderson walked closer to Pearl before she was transferred to the Kellent Centre hospital. As soon as he crouched beside her, Pearl grabbed Billy's hand."Doctor?" Pearl looked anxious and scared."You will be fine. Kellent Centre's hospital network is better. They will take excellent care of you there. I will inform your family about this." Billy said to give Pearl an ease situation. She shouldn't be stressed."But I'm fine, doctor. I don't want to transfer there. I want to go home." Pearl looked at Billy with teary eyes, pleadingly. Billy gave a small smile, then stood up. He couldn't do anything for Pearl right now. However, he now knows that Pearl is a werewolf's mate.Pearl turned to the nurses, who would take her to the rooftop by elevator. She was still trying to talk with them to negotiate.Pearl requested, "Please tell Mr. Taggart. I'm better now; I want to go home." The nurses then looked at each other and finally smiled without ans
Billy Anderson paced his way to the chief of medicine's office when he got a hint from the sample of Pearl's blood. He couldn't wait long to tell the chief about Pearl.When Billy walked into his room, the chief of medicine was writing something. A doctor was standing in front of him. The chief medical officer then looked at Billy."Doctor Anderson?""Excuse me, sir. This is incredibly important. I have to report something." Billy said it solemnly. The chief medical officer nodded. He finished the note and then gave the document to the doctor, who was waiting. After the doctor came out, Billy sat in the same chair."I want to show you this." Billy handed the blood sample to the Chief of Medicine, Louis Durrant, at St. Elizabeth. Like Billy, Louis is a vampire with fairy blood."What's this?" Louis asked with a frown."If you taste it, you will find out, chief.""I don't understand." Louis was still confused while holding the sample.
Pearl's doctor discharged her to go home today. As per Taggart's order, he must report it before letting Pearl go home."I wouldn't take a long time to proceed. Just take some rest, and I'll be back." The doctor who was treating Pearl gave his orders. Pearl frowned and pouted more. As the doctor left, she was sulking. He left Pearl increasingly annoyed with Taggart."He treated me like a prisoner. Regardless, I hadn't agreed to marry him," Pearl stamped her foot irritably on the floor. She was so worried now about her position at Excellor. Pearl had been on holiday for three days and had not received a rational explanation from the company. Pearl was curious if the manager would keep an intern like her in the position while she took a few days off in her first week of work.Pearl waited a while until she was worn out and bored. Two hours later, the door opened, and Pearl instantly stood up. When she saw Taggart coming with the doctor, her eyes widened."A
Taggart would never let Damian sniff out Pearl. Although he was shocked to hear Damian call his girl outside the room. He had first to hide Pearl with his body. When Taggart hides Pearl's scent by hugging her, Damian's sense of smelling her will be distracted. However, Taggart couldn't resist the urge to clutch her tight. When he saw Pearl, he wanted to kiss her. He couldn't hold back his sudden burst of desire. With one blow, Pearl triggered his deepening lust.Still, Pearl couldn't accept it. Taggart suddenly kissed her. He pressed his aggressive kiss on Pearl like there was no tomorrow. The smooches were so hot that they left her with goosebumps all over her skin. Pearl couldn't move her body at all. Taggart was physically bigger and taller than her, so it was difficult for her to push him. She lost her balance and power to wiggle; hence, she didn't have a moment to gather it to fight."Let me go." Pearl tried to speak, but only a moan came out. Taggart is getting more tempted. He
Taggart reprimanded all his guards, regardless of their excellent job. He didn't expect Damian to enter the mansion freely, as he also searched for Pearl. All this time, Taggart underestimated Damian. At first, he thought Damian was not serious about his desire to date Pearl. Now, Damian unexpectedly comes to trigger Taggart recklessly."How could you guys let Damian in?" Taggart snapped at his guards."Who's keeping the outside?" One of the guards walked forward and apologized."I'm sorry, sir. I was the one who allowed Mr. Damian Bronckhorst's car to go in. He came to see you," the guard admitted to Taggart. Taggart's hands clenched into fists. He was irritated by his missed shot."How could you let him get inside?!" Taggart snapped at the guard. He got more enraged. The bodyguard lowered his head. This time, Taggart would finish him."Isn't he a family of The Kellents, so I thought,""Do nothing when I don't tell you to! is it clear?!" Taggart rebuked him again. The bodyguard apolo
After several attempts to call him, Doctor Louis Durrant got John Rosenthal’s address, but it didn’t work well. He came on dinner time alone. As he walked through the front yard, he was thinking of something. He sighed when he took his best shot today. Hopefully, there’s something he would achieve.After the front bell rang, the door opened in seconds. An average woman opened the door and saw someone she barely knew. She winched her eyes to him. Doctor Louis gave out his friendly smile before speaking.“I’m looking for John Rosenthal. My name is Louis Durrant.” He introduced himself.Sandra still frowned with her suspicious stare at Louis. She recalled all of her husband’s friends. Yet she didn’t put on her smile.“Who are you? You are not my husband’s friend.” She put her right hand on the hip. Louis lightly chuckled and nodded.“I’m a doctor at St. Elizabeth. I need to speak to your husband. Is he home?”Sandra was slightly startled, though she still expressed her dislike flatly. Lo
Damian was overjoyed to hear from Simon that Bruce had changed his mind about Taggart's wedding. He had the phone call and then chuckled lightly.“That’s excellent news. It's not because of that if I got eager. I mean, for his sake, Uncle Sim.” Damian could cope and blurted his laugh. He nodded excitedly.“I understand you mean well towards your brother.”“Of course.” Damian grinned to hear the praise coming from his act.“The wedding is so important for our pack, and I cannot let someone from the lowest rank take the place,” Simon added to his arrogance. Damian kept the man ranting about purging Pearl from Taggart. Once the rumour finds the right place, Damian can eliminate Taggart. He didn’t have to steal Pearl’s heart. Eventually, Taggart would never be an Alpha once he had no mate.“I believe so.”“When Taggart couldn’t marry the girl, you could help him find the better one.” Damian kept his grin.“Yes, Uncle Sim. I’ll let you know about it.”Damian ended the call and then laughed
Taggart was pissed now as he heard that his father. All of a sudden, Bruce postponed Taggart’s wedding. He vigorously walked to Bruce’s office to see him.“Dad!” As always, Taggart mentioned his dad when he saw him working in his room.“Have a seat, Tagg,”“No need. What are you doing canceling my wedding!” He talked fiercely while walking closer to the desk. Bruce stayed calm. He didn’t want to provoke Taggart.“Have a seat. I have the explanation,” Bruce told him once more. He stressed the word that made Taggart finally pull a chair and sit in front of him. He kept the tense.“What is the reason? You told me that I should have my wedding soon,” Taggart said impatiently to confront.“That’s before I know the risk. I need to talk to you to reconsider about it.” Bruce quickly confirmed. Taggart showed his deep frown. He tilted his head, looking at his father sharply.“What do you mean?”Bruce took a deep sigh. He put his seriousness and sharp gazed at Taggart. He couldn’t take it, but
Today, Pearl's department has a new manager to come. He was a handsome man with a warm smile upon everyone."Hi, everyone. I am Luke Damant. I am happy to see you are all here to support the design department. I hope we can stay as a strong team in the future," said Luke, introducing himself as a new manager. Like everyone else, Pearl clapped and smiled at him. Luke looked charismatic and appealing. His appearance has impressed the women's staff, including interns. They looked interested in him."I would like to see the interns first. Would you all come with me to my office?" Luke smiled at all the staff without seeing Pearl. He walked to his office in the side room and opened the door widely to the interns who followed. Pearl was the last one who came in."Thank you for all your attention towards the work recently. I am confident you will have a successful time during your internship program. Starting today, I will be your supervisor and your boss. Any question
Simon Rousey had his breakfast meeting with Bruce Kellent for his business. He wanted to discuss Taggart's mate's choice more. The business deal had gone well before; now, it's time for him to discuss personal matters."Bruce, I heard some elders talk about your next future in law. Taggart has found his mate. Thus, he is ready for the initiation," Simon said after taking a sip of tea. Bruce smiled and then glanced back at Simon."He's ready to lead the pack, Simon," Bruce added with pride towards his son. Simon also smiled without nodding."Have you seen the lady?" Bruce nodded with his pursed lips. He still looked confident."I heard that she's only a girl, with no wolf soul or blood of a royal. That's what they say. Is that true?"Bruce's smile had faded, and he started to look tense. Without making a justification, Bruce straightened his back, staring at Simon thoughtfully."That's why he has to turn her into one of our kind, Simon. The wedding will be during the mating season in t
Boringly, Pearl laid down on the empty, lavish, comfortable king-size bed. She stared blankly on one side while gently twisting the edge of her pillow cover. She was not keen on running away again after her fight with Taggart. Until, in the middle of the night, the bedroom door squeaked and slowly opened. Pearl startled and then turned to widen her eyes. Taggart stepped in limping. He drank a lot since he couldn’t keep thinking about Pearl.Pearl sat on the bed watching Taggart, half-dragged his feet, and threw himself next to her. She was stunned and frozen, perplexed about the situation. Taggart then chuckled oddly. His behavior was both humorous and perplexing.“Hey, lady. Ah, why are you so grumpy with me?” Taggart whimpered while touching Pearl’s cheek with his fingers. His hand then only lay on the bed because he was too drunk even to lift it.“What happened to you?” Pearl gently asked. Her soothing voice made him comfortable. He smiled and then glanced with his eyes half-opened
“Our Taggart has royal blood in him. he shouldn’t marry someone with mud blood, right Uncle? What will the vampire clan say about the wedding when they discover it?” Damian was slowly releasing his dangerous provocation against Taggart. He manipulates Simon to reclaim his support for Taggart’s mate and initiation. Simultaneously, Simon was thoughtfully considered about Damian’s words.“I’m not ranting, Uncle. I don’t want you to misunderstand me. You know so well, right?” Damian added to show his willingness. Simon smiled and then nodded.“I know. You are such a favorable young wolf full of potential, Damian. Your admission about it made me think something. Taggart might make a mistake, but he should explain it. I mean, he found a mate after all this time. He faced a hard time, especially after we lost the queen, his mom. Taggart should find a mate to support him.” Simon's long explanation had brought a smile to Damian. He nodded agreeably. “I agree with you. Therefore, he must find
The entire way home, Pearl wept silently but suppressed any sobs or squeaks from her tears. Meanwhile, Taggart began to soften as a result of her sobbing.“Stop crying,” he murmured.Taggart wanted to stop the car and persuade Pearl to stop crying, but he hesitated. Watching a girl cry due to her forced departure was a strange experience for him.“Do you love that family? You’d better not respect them.” Taggart sounded annoyed when he talked about Rosenthal. Pearl sulkily turned to Taggart. She was not pleased with the way Taggart had treated her family. It was so rude and heartless."What do you mean? I love my family. But you took me away from them.” Pearl shook her soft voice against Taggart, who was still driving. Taggart turned to the right and snorted sarcastically. He shook his head slightly, feeling an irritate coming on. Pearl made him think harder than he would for any other girl."If you knew the truth, you would regret it." Taggart cursed a little in annoyance. His voice w
John did not presently welcome Taggart, who had arrived. He frowned when he saw Pearl's future husband looking at him cynically.“Good evening, Mr. Taggart,” John said hello and tried to be friendly. Taggart smirked, not intending to reciprocate. He was not going to be pleasant. Ever since he learned about Pearl, he has harbored a deep-seated anger toward his next father-in-law. John was making up stories to fib about."Where's Pearl?" Taggart inquired coldly. It doesn't seem friendly, but Taggart is like that.“What are you looking for her? It is late." Taggart chuckled, still in his sarcasm."Seriously?" he asked, seeming to mock them up. Keith glared disapprovingly. He stepped forward to lunge at Taggart. John quickly grabbed his shoulders. In the meantime, Taggart was still casually looking at Keith and John without moving. He didn't care if he had to break in with violence.“Please don't intrude Pearl. She is resting.&r
