"You sure everything is alright, Mom? I'm on my way home. Sorry for coming so late. I'll be right back, okay? Don't worry too much. All right Mom, see you." Adler ended the call with his mom. Sitting in the back seat of the car, Adler put his phone back in his pocket and then looked towards the window. It was already dark when the rain stopped, but the wind was still strong because of the typhoon. Maxine was looking out the other window while Isaac drove. No one dared to speak. Long silence pierced the air. If the car didn't stop in the middle of the highway, the silence might have continued until they arrived at the Cadieux’s residence. "What's wrong?" Maxine asked the driver and peeked at the road. There was a long line of vehicles in the lane and loud horns came in different sounds. 'Beep!' 'Bammmp!' 'Beep! Beep! Beep!' With no idea why there was a long traffic in the middle of the long highway, Isaac decided to check what was going on. He unbuckled the seatbelt as he tilt
Adler wished to see his future girlfriend wearing his shirt. But when he saw Isaac wearing his shirt, he stopped dreaming about that anymore.Maxine and Isaac went to the dining room after changing their clothes.The three were shocked to see the food on the table.“These are so many,” Adler gasped.It’s been a long time since his mom cooked for more than two people. Bernadette was excited to cook for Maxine and the guest."Take a seat and enjoy the food."They all took a seat. Maxine was late to realize that she was sitting next to Adler. It was a habit, and she couldn’t change her seat, or else Bernadette would find it suspicious.Bernadette was sitting in the center. Isaac perched at the left side across Adler and Maxine.Isaac looked around and stared at the food.He couldn’t remember the last time he ate with his dead Alpha parents. But sitting here with these people reminded him of the old times.'It'll be a nice meal,' he thought, even without tasting anything."I only cooked t
The wind calmed down, making the light rain, which is nature's version of a white noise machine, can now be perceived as non-threatening.Unable to sleep, Adler went out of his room. He sat on the old crib that turned into a vintage-style bench with a beer in his hand. He opened the can and took a sip."Ahhhhhh," he gasped in pleasure.Monsoons always bring the cravings for something crisp and spicy. Hence, having a beer will claim to offer the best vibes during this season. However, it's not the craving that made him want to drink."I couldn't sleep again," he sighed.Back then, he endured sleepless nights whenever he thought of his sister, whom he thought was dead. So, he usually grabs something to drink, either wine, beer, or tea until he can feel drowsy.But today is different. Jasmine was alive.‘Then, why can’t I sleep?’ There are three reasons why. First, he was looking forward to the day when he could tell the truth to his mom. Second, Maxine’s college friend, Sasha.‘Even
Dwight woke up and looked around.'I dozed off,' he sighed to himself.While waiting for Maxine’s reply to his text, he fell asleep. And so, when he woke up, he quickly checked his phone. However, he was disappointed that he received nothing from his foster sister.He exhaled slowly, putting his phone onto his chest.Looking at the ceiling, he remembered the time when he could still peacefully sleep without waiting for someone to come home.His dad, Samuel, was always away on business trips. Therefore, he was fine staying alone inside the huge mansion. But ever since Maxine came into their residence, he caught himself looking forward to her return.'Because being with her is fun,’ he thought.Dwight tried all the excuses he could think of. But in the end, he knew deep within what he was feeling.“It was f*cking crazy that I kept on liking someone that I should not like.” He felt annoyed that Maxine had to sleep in Adler’s house. He wasn’t bothered at Adler’s presence before. Not unti
Brett found it weird that his father, the Elder of the Holmes pack, was looking for him again. “What’s with that old man?” The Alpha blurted while walking around the mansion. He had guesses but he wished none of them would come true. ‘Is it because of Delta’s wish? Is he guilty that he betrayed his former Alpha friend?’ "Welcome back, Alpha," the oldest Omega maid greeted the lord, who just came back to this house after a long time. From every corner of the house, some young omega maids were peeking at the Alpha of the Holmes. They saw him for the first time. "Hey, the Alpha is so pretty," one commented, biting the rug that she just used to wipe the dusty window. "I thought they were just exaggerating that our Alpha is someone who can steal all the lights in the world. But now that I saw him, such simple praise is not enough." Brett was showered with compliments one after another. If it's the old Brett, he'll definitely give the sweet girls a fan service such as smiling sedu
The bright morning sunshine greeted my face. I woke up, still thinking about everything Adler said to me last night. ‘I rejected him, but he rejected my rejection.’ After looking at the ceiling for a long time, I picked up my phone and saw my foster brother’s text. Thanks to his crazy text, my whole system went on edge. “What? He will bring helicopter? That joke isn’t funny.” Before my brother would resort in insanity, I texted him back. [WE'RE GOING HOME TODAY! DON'T YOU EVER DO THAT!] Then, I moved up from the bed. Isaac told me that we can take the bridge now that it's open to use again. Adler’s mom took care of the wet clothes we wore yesterday. “Adler left early in the morning,” Aunt Bernadette informed, “He said he will be busy so he had to leave early.” “I see.” I expected that. "I'm glad that you visited last night, Maxine. You should come again next time. Okay?" Aunt said. "Hmmm, Aunt. Thank you so much. I will go back here soon." After bidding my goodbye, Isaa
Eugene parked the car in front of the Holmes’ mansion.He looked at Chocolate who was sleeping in the back seat of the car.Carrying her in his arms wasn’t a good idea. Therefore, Eugene waited until Chocolate woke up.After a few hours, sharp claws threatened Eugene’s neck.“Who are you?”Staying nonchalant, Eugene looked at the claws on his neck and responded, “Is this how you repay someone who helped you many times?”Almost sobered, Chocolate recognized him and his scent. She withdrew her claws and looked at him with widened eyes. “You… again,” she uttered.“Finally, you recognized. I thought you forgot my face. If you did, I’d be sad.”Chocolate will forget his face?No way.Eugene is one in a million.With the depth of his amber eyes, his cute dimples, his soft lips, and his beautiful smile, Chocolate can remember every detail of his features.He's the man who shone brightly at the Gouger game.And although Chocolate’s ideal type is a guy who smells like fresh mint, she doesn't
Brett has been contacting Chandler the whole day.But Chandler wasn’t answering.And so, Brett went to Wayne’s mansion.“Sorry, Alpha. But Alpha Chandler wasn’t here.”Brett went to the hotel, but he could not find Chandler there either."Fuck! Why is it so hard to find you today?!"Brett slammed the steering wheel as he drove on the long highway. Stretching his strained neck, he loosened his red necktie with his left hand. His elbow leaned on the windowsill as he pressed his index finger at the seam of his lips.‘I considered telling this to Adam. But…’“I knew Adam. He might ask Maxine to flee with him,” Brett said in a perturbed voice.He was really hoping that his father would not tell the truth to everyone yet.But even if he tries to stay optimistic, he couldn’t help but feel the urge to see Maxine right now.‘I must see that she’s safe,’ he thought.Therefore, Brett went to the Cadieux mansion. He parked his white car in front of the huge house. When he hopped down, the butler
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
