“Long time no see, my dear wife.”

The moment she turned her head, Amelia had frozen on the spot.

The man standing behind her back was young, refined, and handsome. He had short, slightly curled black hair and a pair of fascinating deep grey eyes. When he met Amelia’s gaze, he gave her this bright, and charming smile. His voice was soft and low as whispering. But it awakened the deepest fear buried in Amelia’s heart.

It was Ian. Her ex-husband and her biggest nightmare.

Amelia tried to escape, but Ian grabbed her by her neck and then smashed her into the wall beside the door.

“Where do you think you are going, Wife?” He kept his charming smile, squeezing Amelia’s neck, lifting her into the air, so she could utter no sounds for help.

He tightened his grip on her throat little by little, watching her gradually choke due to lack of air. Amelia grasped his wrist, scratching his arm. She struggled hard, trying to get away from his ruthless claw. But Ian was much stronger than her. The only

    In the downtown at Wolf Committee. Darren had no idea what a hellish ordeal his mate was going through.He was being tortured too.In the meeting room, around the huge conference table, he was placed at the end of it, facing tons of uncovered disdain and contempt from all the other “legitimate” Alphas.On the opposite of him was Fay, the Chief Luna of the Wolf Committee. She took a chair at the head of the table, looking at him with a light sneer on her meticulously cared face.“I think I’ve made it very clear on the phone.” She spoke coldly, leaning forward to place her elbows on the table, crossing her fingers together, “Why don’t you bring that poor girl here as I asked, Rogue?”Darren was in his human form. It would be impolite to attend a meeting like this as a wolf. He wore a formal black suit as the other Alphas did. The fabric and the bind made him very uncomfortable. He got more irritable because of that. “Watch your language, Fay,” he growled, “Amelia is not some poor girl.

    In the central building of Wolf Committee, Darren hesitated, standing behind the front gate of the lobby.He came to the meeting alone but shredded his clothes when he shifted. If he left the building now, he would have to walk on the street in his wolf form. Normally, it wouldn’t be a problem since most humans in the city could never tell the difference between wolves and dogs, but he is an Alpha, and the only one he could tolerate looking down at him and treating him as a dog was his mate, Amelia.To walk between human legs was unquestionable humiliation. Darren stopped his steps involuntarily and started wondering. Roland was currently too far from him to mind-link. It was impossible to ask him to bring clothes here. But to walk on the street alone in his wolf form…After hesitating for a while, right before he decided to take the chance and run back to his packmates, a girl in a blue suit suddenly appeared from behind a door at his right side.She wore a pair of dazzling purple hi

    Amelia escaped from Ian. Or to be more specific, Ian escaped from her.She bit off almost half of Ian’s face. He had never been injured this much before. It would take him some serious time to recover. And her sudden madness scared him. She made him feel he had lost control of her. There was a crowd gathering around because of the huge noise he made when he kicked Amelia out of the car. Ian knew he wouldn’t stand a chance once being caught beating a woman. So, he simply stepped on the gas and ran away.Some warm-hearted passersby supported Amelia up from the ground, gently asking if she needed any help. Amelia spoke nothing, answered nothing. She even heard nothing. She had already lost her heart along with her soul the moment she saw that girl kissing Darren.If only Ian hadn’t said those fake, cruel things to her in advance, she would have caught up with her mate and figured out it was simply a misunderstanding, a nasty, treacherous trap. But there were too many wounds in her hear

    At around 9 at night, Amelia followed Irene and got off the train at a small town not so far away from the city. Irene purchased a second-hand car there in advance. She had planned to go to the east along with the highway.“Eric’s father is a very … special wolf. I mustn’t let him track us down. Travelling by car is the best way to hide our traces.” While they were still on the train, Irene told Amelia about her “travel plan”.Amelia nodded her head without asking Irene the reason why she was escaping. Irene didn’t ask Amelia either. She knew Amelia was Alpha’s mate. That had already explained everything.After getting off the train, Irene left Amelia with Eric and Ella at the train station, then picked up the car by herself.When she came back, the time was late, but she insisted on getting on the way now.“We can’t stay in a hotel. It will raise the chance of being found out.” She explained, then asked Amelia, “Do you know how to drive? We need to take turns.”Amelia had never lear

She didn’t even get any sleep when that day actually came.In the morning, the first thing she did after jumping off her bed was try on her splendid new dress. It was a strapless dark blue one which falls just below her knees, with shining sprinkles on the hemline just like lovely stars shining in the deep blue night. She got her mother to prepare it for her the day after she met her mate.Yes, though it happened six months ago, long before she turned 18, Natalia was sure that the man she met in the woods the other day was her mate.He was this gorgeous male wolf who was tall and strong, with disheveled shoulder-length black hair and a fascinating silver eye.

    In Fox Town outside the Misty Forest, Amelia was having a great life.It may not be perfectly great because she never dated anyone, but she did enjoy every single day she had there.In the second month after they settled down, she got her own bakery shop with Irene’s help.There was this cute little shop waiting for rent on Eric’s way to school. Amelia fell in love with it the moment she saw it. Ever since Eric bought her cookies with money for the first time, she had been dreaming of having her own bakery shop.Cooking delicious food had always been the greatest joy in her life, and the scent of freshly baked cakes and bread always made her smile.She loved the feeling of devoting herself to something sweet and healing.Irene noticed her little wishes. She passed her a check at dinner, “Just think of it as Eric’s training fee, and I need you to help me take care of Ella.” Her voice was cold and stern as always. Amelia knew what a great favor Irene was offering her.“Thanks,” she clu

    After closing her shop, Amelia drove directly toward Eric’s school. It was a two-story building in the middle of the town.When Amelia arrived, Eric had been waiting there in the parking lot. Seeing Amelia, he waved his hand to her first and then ran towards her truck.“Good afternoon, Anne.” He sat in the passenger seat as usual and greeted her. Amelia smiled, “How about school today? Any new letters?” Eric blushed. He had already hit puberty, was much taller than two years ago, and had a handsome face. Lots of girls liked him.“You know I don’t want letters, Anne.” He coughed to cover his embarrassment, then changed the topic, “What’s our training today? You said we could go explore the Misty Forest when summer comes. Can we go today?”“I said ‘If you can run faster than me by summer, then we can go explore the Misty Forest’,” Amelia replied while turning around the truck, then drove directly towards the woods outside the town.Eric co

    Darren didn’t mean to scare Amelia with his fury. He had already seen tears in her eyes, but he couldn’t control himself.The fear of losing his mate was too strong. It was even more scary than seeing the earth crack and the sky fall.The moment he sensed her life was in danger, he had completely lost his mind. He ran through the vast forest in almost the blink of an eye. Moon Goddess knows what he would turn if he hadn’t happened to be nearby.He just came to this area minutes ago. After he got that phone call from Fay, he ordered his army to come here to meet him by plane, then ran towards the Misty Forest via woods and mountains in his wolf form to save time. If he hadn’t done so, if he had been late for even a second, he might have lost her forever. And he would burn down the whole forest, even the whole world, for her.“Ooooooooooooooooooooh!!!”He roared towards the darkened sky over and over again, angrily, furiously, ragefully, and ferociously to unleash his wrath, his fury,

    Nine’s POVUp to today, I still couldn’t fully comprehend why I stopped for that teenage girl on that day.It was one of the coldest winter nights in this strange country, chill, dark, and the iciness was just seeping under your skin.There was no wind that night, just snow, flake by flake, but in quite large sizes, falling off from heaven.I walked aimlessly in the thick snow on the street. The melted mud soiled my furs on my legs.There weren’t many street lights either, just cars and scarce passersby running past hurriedly. I heard loud music and laughing noises coming from those colorful stores on both sides of the street. It was still early in the night, but the street was so dark and quiet like it had been devoured by the demon.I walked haphazardly on the sidewalk, eyes fixed in the air, mind wandering restlessly.It was the 60th day I arrived in the city. As always, I found no one even slightly looking like my aim. It was quite disappointing, but I didn’t think much about it.

    Amelia was waiting outside the village in the car. Up to today, they had been traveling around the country for 7 months. They paid a visit to Emily first, and then went to Fay and Gregson’s son and all the other wolves who were once part of the murder.They hunted down every wolf who was responsible and made them pay their debts.James’s house was their last stop. After today, they would head back to their home and start a new life.Amelia said “No” when he asked if she wanted to visit her parents with him. Darren knew the reason. James and Doris were just the most ignorant and stupid couple he had ever met. Harm would be the only thing they might have caused Amelia if there was a reunion.He wrapped his coat a little tighter because of the autumn’s cold wind, then quickened his steps to the outside of the village.The sky’s color was sullen yellow today. While he was still far from their car, suddenly he saw Doris standing beside it with Amelia. His heart clenched. He then ran toward

    James was pretty upset about his retirement life.Nearly three years had passed since he lost his pack to the rogue he hated most, Darren. Though he had successfully persuaded himself to accept the fact and have a life with nothing a long time ago. Still, he was worried all the time about his adopted son, Ian. Three years ago, right after Darren took all his property from the Wolf Committee, Ian showed up at his front door later that day with a heavily wounded face. He plunged himself into James’s arms and cried. “The Rogue has put a wanted notice on me. He wants me to be dead!”James patted his back and sighed, knowing it was the ending of his and his pack’s glory. Still, he had this tiny expectation left in his heart that maybe someday, Ian could find a way to defeat Darren and regain everything. He was a smart kid, and had always been. And, he was the heir of the most powerful pack, Green Lake.At that point, James could hardly tell. Did he adopt Ian out of his condolences to hi

    “Mom, Dad, Emily….”He drifted back to his childhood in that cold, suffocating lake water, reliving everything that was so treasurable and amiable for him….When he was sinking, the lost memories of his slowly grew back piece by piece. He remembered how his sister fell from the cliff on the exact same day, and how Roy caught him in the lake, then took him to a secret chamber underneath it. That’s how he survived.“Hope you can have a normal but happy life, kid.” Roy sighed and wept beside his bed, then did something to his wounded eye. He couldn’t remember.Next, another surge of hatred and fury overwhelmed him.Now he could see clearly how he and his sister saved that wounded rogue boy in the forest, but got betrayed and attacked by him.“Fuck you! Fuck! How dare you use the Alpha tone on me?!” The rogue boy cursed, riding on top of him, using that sharp rock in his hand, repeatedly beating his head. After crushing his left eye, the rogue stood up and started to kick his chest and s

    Adam had no idea why he agreed to help Mia. Mia was just an orphan he picked up from the street 10 years ago. A girl who had grown up, but refused to leave. When he told her that she was free to go at any time, she just said, “You need someone to take care of you, Master. And I am that perfect someone”, and then stayed as his maid.Adam didn’t try to persuade her. He didn’t even talk with her that much. He wasn’t a passionate person, had never had too many emotions. During the past 600 years, he had witnessed the death of too many people. For him, people were just things, or even less than things. Because things can last and stay, while people change and decay so quickly.No matter what kind of lives they have, or how reluctantly they behave, the endings of them are just the same.They will all die eventually, being buried into the earth soundlessly, and then quickly dispersed into nowhere.Years later, sometimes even days later, no one would ever remember them. Only he, the outsid

    The moment Amelia heard that she felt her blood freeze.She quickly turned her head and then looked towards the castle, then saw Jovian grabbing a young girl in uniform by her throat, dragging her to the window.It wasn’t the girl who served food for them tonight, but Mia. The torch dropped on the floor had ignited the curtain beside the window, the whole place was about to sink into fire.Jovian giggled at the window, tightening his grip on Mia’s throat, “Guess what I will do to her, baby brother? I am going to eat her alive, starting from the fingers.” He reached his other hand to Mia’s wrist and broke it off like it was a chopstick. Mia screamed out of pain, but it was quickly cut off by the hand on her throat. Her face instantly turned purple. Tears streamed down from the corners of her eyes.“Or I am going to rape her right here and dismember her. You hate that kind of thing, don’t you, little brother? I hear you deprived a wolf for a human girl.”Adam’s face turned pale. Ameli

    When Amelia headed back, the temperature within the manor had suddenly dropped.The whole place somehow went into dead silence. Ominous coldness infiltrated her skin. Amelia kept her footsteps light, eliminating the sounds she made to the minimum. Way before she made it to the castle, she had already heard that cocky male voice laughing and shouting from inside it.“Where are you, Adam?”“Come to meet your big brother!”“It has been 70 years since the last time we met. Don’t you want to treat your brother to a drink?”His tone was both playful and vicious, sounding like provoking a fight or seeking conflicts. No matter who he was, his visit here was definitely not kind.Amelia quickly climbed up to a huge maple tree outside the castle. She hid herself on a branch under those lush leaves, observing the castle, trying to get a peek at what was going on inside.From the opened window on the façade of the building, she saw an average-height figure wandering through the hallway on the se

    After going back to the castle, they said “good night” to each other.Adam parted with her in the lobby. He didn’t want to frighten her by escorting her to her room.Amelia took the elevator and went back alone. After entering her room, she loosened her hair first and removed all the ornaments Mia decorated on her.After that, she picked out one of her own dresses from the closet. She didn’t wear it. Instead, she wrapped it around her waist and then shifted.The castle was high, but the second floor wouldn’t be a problem for a deft wolf like her. She pushed open the window using her paws, and then jumped out through it.The dirt underneath the window was soft, tinged with the mixed scent of different kinds of plants. Amelia stopped there for a second to identify the direction. And then she moved her legs and sprinted. She was heading towards her mate who was guarding her outside those tall grey walls.She just had one of the greatest nights of her life. She couldn’t wait to share it

    Adam had made plans for tonight.Long before he asked Amelia to Switzerland with him, when he was still in her bakery shop typing, writing, and observing her, he had already decided what he would do to her once he brought her here.When the night came, he would invite her for dinner for sure, but before that, he would have her dress like a princess, even make her wear a splendid wedding dress.After she cried throughout dinner at the table, he would “ask” her to dance. In the company of the beautiful symphony of Shubert, he would flirt with her, tease her, and even terrorize her by pretending to bite her. “I am going to transfer you to a vampire,” he would whisper in her ear, gliding his sharp teeth through the soft skin of her delicate neck.Amelia would be so scared, and then she would run and hide.He would chase her through every single room of this huge castle, having some weapons and exits prepared for her, giving her fake hopes now and then, but quickly push her back into deep
