The bakeshop that became famous because of their delicious cheese bread, just started their shop today. Tons of apartments were built at the Paju street, but today, there's only a few small houses scattered perpendicularly along the road. It was as if the time reversed years ago when Jasmine was walking down their neighborhood from school. Tanned skin, rigid small eyes, straight nose and tall; she's the most beautiful volleyball player at her sports club. Busy at sports activities, she always goes to practice every Saturday. But today, practice was canceled so she's on her way home. [ “Old Sis Maxine, I found your necklace at the...] Jasmine was typing a text to her brother's best friend. However, she stopped in the middle of typing and erased the words in her message box. "My brother and Maxine are probably together right now," she thought. Ever since, Jasmine knew her brother's feelings for Maxine. And she wasn't against it! Instead, Jasmine wanted them to end up together. "He
An unfamiliar feeling grew when Chandler entered the Wayne residence. He was sure before that there won't be a time when he can come to this place without his fear. His childhood trauma was the reason why he left this place as well as his father. However, each step he took filtered his dread. If only he knew his father's intention at the beginning, then he doesn't have to waste fruitless years of loathing and trembling in front of the Wayne’s Elder. Great atonement hit him like a bullet. Now he's here to erase bad memories of the past. He holds all of the authority in Wayne, and that's what living in this house means. For him to survive, he needs to be strong... no... stronger than his father. And moving on is the first step. "We tidied your room, Alpha," an omega maid reported in front of his old room. Chandler looked at the door with a lukewarm gape. He has the emotion of someone who wanted to eat ice cream but after buying one, he caught a cold; someone who wanted to attend a c
White cottons drifted slowly across the sky. As Adler watched the clouds above, he remembered the old Motown verse: "I've got sunshine on a cloudy day." 'Peeep!' a loud horn whooped. Realizing it wasn't the time to enjoy the morning sky in the middle of the road, Adler gradually lifted his foot from the brake; moving North in a slow pace to fill the limited space in the citified way. Adler knew that he should deal with lots of cars, bicyclists, buses, pedestrians and one way streets while driving on the metropolis, so he had to be careful and pay more attention in driving, or else an accident might occur. However, he couldn’t focus on the road because he’s been recalling his sister’s words. When Adler went to Chandler’s house to visit his sister, he heard her chanting repeated words like: [ “It's not me! This necklace isn't mine! And I don't know whoever owned this! I don't know!” ] In Jasmine’s hand, she was holding a gold necklace while trembling in fear. Witnessing those, Ad
Maxine’s POV “Brother.” The word brother which came from my lips echoed loudly in my system, winning against all sounds around the world. My throat felt hot like there was a boiling lava inside. It was throbbing, as well as my head. As tears swelled in the corner of my eyes, I wrapped my hand around my throat. ‘Why am I feeling like this in front of this man?’ Aside from feeling this intense heat and pain, I was bothered by the fact that I called him in the most surprising endearment. “Do I really look that old, Miss?” the man spoke while holding his chin. “I should use a mask pack tonight to get rid of my wrinkles.” No. I didn’t call him ‘brother’ because he looks old. That beautiful face of his is as fresh as morning dew. Yet, despite seeing his beauty, I felt as if my feet were shackled on the ground. ‘ Does intense beauty make someone lose consciousness?’ “Maxine.” I looked up and saw Isaac’s grimace. It was then I realized that I almost stumbled and he caught me in
Brett exited the bathroom and the steam scattered like thin clouds. Wearing only white robe and boxers underneath, he collapsed on his bed with a grunt. “Ahhhh. That was so refreshing~” He does not want to sleep with wet hair because it’s uncomfortable. But he was feeling lazy to blow his hair or to do his skincare routine. “I am already pretty so I don’t need it,” he said with his lips protruding acutely. He rolled sideward and now his bare chest rested on the soft mattress. Then, he raised his feet, putting all the weight underneath his bending knees. The back of his hands supported his chin while his elbows rested above the bed. “What’s the point of being handsome? That woman never looks at me the way I want.” After asking this question to himself, Brett looked at the big werewolf stuffed toy that he got from winning in the dart game in the Amusement park. The stuffed toy, which was leaning against the headboard, occupied almost a quarter of his bed. Brett narrowed his pur
Maxine’s POV Slowly opening my heavy lid, I saw an angelic face. ‘Chandler?’ Sleeping, Chandler was sitting on the floor while leaning his head on the couch. After processing that I am not seeing an illusion but the real Alpha of Wayne. With a gasp, I sat up. ‘Why is he here?’ I looked around the office and found no one except him. If he came, he should have woken me up instead of waiting and falling asleep in that state. “He might feel uncomfortable sitting on the floor,” I whispered. I stared at his peaceful face and wondered if I should wake him or not. Biting my lips, I raised my hand. All I wanted was to tap his head, but… ‘Why should I touch him when he’s asleep?’ Afraid to succumb under the odd urge to touch him, I withdrew my hand and clenched it against my chest. That was close! Maybe it's the influence of drowsiness that sent silly requests in my brain, so I shook my head before sitting up. Isaac’s jacket slid down on my lap. It was a great blanket so I thought
Maxine’s POV When the brain and the heart both are on overload, getting away is the only chance to survive.And so, I ran.I ran fast.My body was on flight mode, it only focused on my escape.It stayed in my head as if they were pictured in slow-motion. I could feel the scream of my lungs and the will of my soaring muscles to go beyond what exercise could demand. In this moment, I am least proud of who I am, for I failed to be a good woman.Catching my breath, I stopped in nowhere. Everything around me looks the same, except the fountain in the middle of a huge garden. If I came back near the entrance, that means Chandler is now way too far from me. But the guilt stayed close in my heart. I shut my eyes and soon regretted. Because the second dark invaded my sight, I vividly remembered what happened before I came here.Chandler’s soft lips.His shaking eyes.And his tears.I let him kissed my lips even though I know I love Adam.And worst, I could not bring myself to wipe my mouth
"I read an email. It says: We will get that child, Maxine, tonight. I sent my people so you don't have to worry about anything, Governor. We'll make sure she'll speak, using any possible way there is." Adler clenched his fists into projectile paws. He dug his nails so hard until his palms knuckled protruded until it went white as his face turned as red as lava. “I wasn’t sure if the Maxine in the email is the same Maxine I know. So, when I saw the location of the sender in the email, I went there. Then, I met her and was shocked.” Remaining unresponsive for a moment, Adler unbuttoned two of his shirt. He felt as if something was holding his breath and that his lungs might explode in any second. Adler suppressed the urge of blaming the innocent person in front of him. He wanted to complain to Ned that he should have told him first. But then, he realized that Neck was probably confused and scared. How will the police react if they find out that the Governor was an accomplice? Per
Hi. Regarding the last chapter, let me give some explanation. Question: Why it suddenly ended that way? What the hell was that? I was also sad that I need to end it this way. Well, the original chapters of this should be 300. However, I received a notice that I should finish the story this month. I don't want to just end it just like that. And so, instead of giving a weird ending, I summarized all the chapters in Chapter 234. If I will be given a chance, I will continue to write the other chapters as epilogues. Thank you for supporting this book. It was a long journey that suddenly ended in the mid-way.
The reason why the enemy was looking for Maxine was that they were looking for the sealed item the mage stole from the magic tower.They believe that it is an item that will kill all the werewolves, and they think that once the werewolves are gone, peace will come next.However, Kelly Park discovered that it wasn’t an item but a real person. The prophecy about a child who can save or kill the werewolves was about Maxine.It was then revealed by Kelly that Maxine’s parents deliberately sent Maxine away from the packs so that she would avoid her destiny of choosing between killing the werewolves as the mages or saving the packs as the Luna.Because of the spell cast on Maxine, she had a hard time fighting over her mages power.Kelly decided to use Maxine to kill the Alphas.Chandler, Brett, Adam, Isaac, Eugene, Vincent, and Edgar came to save Maxine.They killed some mages on their way, however, they didn’t expect what Kelly would do.Under the spell, Maxine appeared in front of the Alp
The Alphas felt a throbbing pain in their chests. When they did, they knew something had happened. Adam and Brett went to Chandler. And when they arrived, they heard the news. Maxine was missing. The one who told it to them was none other than Isaac who came back and reported that Maxine’s power was awakened. “Are you nuts?! Why did you let her go alone?” Adam asked Chandler, grabbing his collar. “Adam, calm down your shit,” Brett said. Adam let go of Chandler, and Chandler nonchalantly fixed his collar. Catching his breath, Adam looked at Isaac. Isaac was injured. “Who did that to you?” Adam asked. Isaac held his injured arm and lowered his head. Then he said, “When Miss Maxine was awakening, I tried to hold her. But her power was too strong.” “Y-You mean, Maxine did that to you?” Brett asked. Isaac’s wordless response stunned the two Alphas. It seemed the prophecy was real when it said that the Queen of Luna can kill all the beast. Not only because she’s a werewolf, b
“I killed my father,” Maxine murmured. She was sitting on the moist floor filled with Konki flower.“Maxine!” Isaac shouted, staring at her. He held her shoulder and shook her to let her regain her consciousness. But as he held her, he felt her convulsed.“I killed my father,” Maxine like a crazy woman. She wailed loudly, pounding her chest while her other hand pulled her hair.Isaac did not know what to do. Panicking, he looked around. He dropped his phone when Maxine suddenly fell after eating the flower, so he had no light to see her clearly. Even if he carries her out, it will be hard to walk in the dark.“I killed her, I killed him!” she shouted tremendously.With trembling hands, Isaac searched for his phone on the ground. He felt the need to hurry because at Maxine’s condition. He needs to get her out of here as soon as possible.Suddenly, a light brightened the space.Isaac searched where it came from and was shocked to see it coming from Maxine’s hand. The bracelet on her han
Eugene woke up very dizzy inside the silent room. After blinking so much, the blindfold slowly slid down. His eyes started to adapt to the sudden brightness from pitch dark. He looked around, trying to recognize where the hell he was. But he didn’t even see anyone.“Hmmm!” someone groaned behind him.He looked back and saw Max who was tied with duct tape around her wrist just like him.“M..hmmm!” Eugene tried to call her name, but his mouth was also covered with tape. They are in the same situation, tied and unable to move. But unlike Max who had her eyes covered, Eugene could see their surroundings.‘We’re kidnapped!’ he realized.Eugene, who learned how to wolf out even at a young age, tried to shift into his young wolf form. But there was a blinding light from the rope. It has the spell of Mage.That’s weird. Usually, Mage’s spell doesn’t work for werewolves. It was then the young Eugene realized that the Mage might have found a weapon against the beasts.A bullet of panic rose in
Maxine’s POV Flapping.Flapping. I started looking through the handwritten documents inside the envelope. Then, I read them one by one.[This is the research about how I discovered the plant that can make a spell that will seal a werewolf’s memories and powers.] I looked at the papers and continued reading them.[With the right spell and the flower, I can create a sealing weapon against a beast.] There are other terms that I could not understand so I skipped some of them and looked for the last page.[“The prophecy said that my daughter will be the last key to kill the beasts. So, I sealed her power to keep her away from the unending war. If my daughter finds this out, I hope she will understand why I had to do this. – Beverly.]My eyes widened at the familiar name at the end of the report. It was my mother’s name.It was my mom who… sealed my power?As I make my conclusion, my hands tremble at the papers I’m holding.‘I have the ability to kill the beasts?’ My eyes diverted back
Finally, the owner of Maxine’s old house decided to sell it back to her. And so, the first thing that Maxine did when she came back was to go to that old house. Maxine brought her necklace and her mother’s necklace which turned like a key. When they arrived inside, they looked for a locked door where they would use the key.The last owner said that there was an underground place in the house that they failed to open. They tried to smash the door, but none of it worked, so they just left it untouchable for many years. Hearing that, Maxine decided to visit the underground place together with Isaac.Isaac looked at Maxine who was holding the key. Unlike before, her eyes were filled with determination.Maxine tried the key she was holding and with just one swipe, the door unlocked.Isaac’s eyes widened. Perhaps Maxine didn’t see it, but he saw a spell around the door.‘The reason why they could not open it was because it has Mage’s spell,’ Isaac thought.Click.Maxine’s heart pounded.
Maxine is Chandler’s mate and wife. She’s in love with Adam. She is the daughter of the former Alpha, who became a rogue. And she is Brett’s first love.That’s what Brett knew about Maxine.But after his conversation with his father, Brett created another hypothesis about Maxine’s identity.‘Did Chandler marry her while knowing her power?’ To know the answer, Brett called Chandler early in the morning even if he was aware that Chandler and Maxine were away for their honeymoon.“I love Maxine,” this was what Brett said as soon as Chandler picked up the phone.Chandler, who just woke up, chuckled.[“Telling this to Maxine’s husband right after their honeymoon, you are so unpredictable, Brett.”]Brett couldn’t reply and just tightened his hand around his phone.[“It was probably hard for you to watch the wedding between Maxine and I.”]“Yes, I am super jealous. Even right now. Just knowing that you and Maxine spent the night together made me mad.”[“This the first time I heard you feel
Maxine’s POVSitting on the bed while naked, I looked at my husband, the man who threatened my life the first time we met again after many years. With a thick white blanket to give warmth to his naked body, he’s sleeping in peace. Laying down with his chest against the bed sheet, cheek on the pillow while his arms wrapped around the cushion, his wide bare shoulder rises and falls at a slow pace.He’s sleeping as if he’s a toy with dead batteries which is in need of be charged. It’s the same for me. After our last night’s activity, I felt so tired, and I am experiencing body aches here and there. It seemed I got drunk with ecstasy, but all memories are vividly playing inside my head.The hangover I had after waking up wasn’t because of the alcohol, which I didn’t take, but the realization I had last night.‘I love two men.’ It was then when I looked at Chandler’s angelic sleeping face and I remembered the confession I made exactly on this bed.“I love you… I love him and you…” “We lo
