"Why are you apologizing?" "..." He didn't push me further when I didn't answer him. Instead, he suddenly leaned in closer to my ear and sniffed. I saw his throat swallow a little, and my heart skipped a beat along with him. "You..." His voice was low and husky, like music to my ears. "You smell wonderful," Enzo said.
View MoreI felt my swollen cheeks hit the hard rock as my body plunged into the sea. Icy cold water flowed into my nose and mouth, and I struggled instinctively. My limbs flailed as I tried to move to the surface. I could swim, so I could save myself, couldn't I?However, the waves were so violent, and it overwhelmed me easily, despite how much strength I had.It became harder to breathe. It felt like the air in my lungs was about to finish at any moment, and I couldn't draw enough air without getting more water in my nose and mouth.The pain from my wounds and suffocation ate away at me, causing my body to spasm.Was I going to die...?Just as I was about to fade out from consciousness, I heard a familiar voice shout, "Andrea!"Was that... Enzo?Was I hallucinating?I tried to keep my eyes open, but all I could see were blurs around me. For a moment, it felt like someone had wrapped their arms around my waist and...It was warm, despite the raging ice-cold sea water I was submerged in, and I
The car ride was bumpy, and my stomach lurched at the motions, but my limbs were still tied together, and I couldn't move.Lilla's eyes were red. "What should we do?""Don't worry... There's always a way."Lilla nodded nervously. "...Okay."The car came to an abrupt stop. After a few moments, I could smell the dampness and saltiness in the air.The sea! We were at the beachside!The back door opened, and Melissa coldly snorted, "Hmph! Alpha Enzo came just in time. Otherwise, you two would be dead by now. Well, that's fine anyway. Let's play another game!"Melissa smiled wildly. "Let's see how much your mate really loves you, hmm?"Max pulled both Lilla and me out of the car. It was pitch black around us, and I could hear the waves crashing like crazy. We were standing on a high reef, and if we jumped down from here, the waves would definitely swallow us up.Lilla was already sitting limply on the ground, so I forced myself to stay calm and asked, "What the hell is your plan?""Didn't
When I opened my eyes again, my surroundings were dark, and the smell of dampness and rust was in the air.I tried to move and realized with a jolt that my hands and feet were tired.A light suddenly came on.I squinted at the sudden onslaught of brightness and saw Melissa's face. I also noticed Lilla, who was unconscious beside me."Are you awake?" Melissa asked in a cold tone.I looked at Melissa with confusion swimming in my eyes. "Where are we?""A warehouse," Melissa replied bluntly."What the hell do you want?""Me?" Melissa said sarcastically. "Don't you already know what I want?"She suddenly pulled a dagger out of her pocket and cackled like a maniac. "Of course, it's to kill you! Also..."She suddenly pointed the tip of the knife at Lilla, and I was terrified."I know you hate and detest me! You can throw anything you want at me, but leave innocent people out of this!""Innocent?" Melissa laughed. "Seriously? You can only blame her for being your friend and stealing my man!"
"Lilla's birthday party?" I asked and put down the magazine in my hand. "Where will it be held?""At the top floor of Jasmine Hotel," Enzo replied. "Kyle has booked the entire floor, and it'll just be the few of us. We're still in the Blue River Pack, so we can't make it too grand.""Ah, that's a pity. She must be disappointed.""Not at all! I'm happy enough to spend my birthday with my best friends!"I turned to see Lilla kicking off her shoes before running towards me and jumping on me. Kyle and Seth were also back, following behind her quietly."You're almost eighteen. Why are you still acting like a child?" Kyle exasperatedly said as he straightened out her messed-up shoes. Lilla stuck out her tongue in response."Say, you can find your mate after your birthday. Did you think about what your plans are?" Kyle asked as he approached us.Lilla instantly tensed up, and her smile vanished. "Uh... I...""Are you still thinking about that bastard?"Kyle was obviously referring to Max, an
"Kill her."These words echoed in my ears like a curse. I gave Enzo a startled look and was silent for a long while."Are you scared?" He asked in a low and hoarse voice, covering my forehead with his palm.I shook my head. After a moment, I got up from his lap, looked straight into his eyes, and said, "You're joking, right?"Enzo didn't say anything in response."You must be kidding me!" I muttered to myself.He suddenly broke into a smile and said, "Fine, I was joking. I know that's not how you like to handle things."I savored the hidden implications of his words and once again discovered how different my old world was from Enzo. Perhaps in his view, it was a waste of time to look for evidence just to deal with this matter.But for me, he was willing to hide the cruel side of his personality.After staying silent for a while, I went back to today's events. "Did the masked man look familiar to you?"Enzo raised his eyebrows slightly, indicating he didn’t know, and I told him, "It wa
"Shit!" Alpha Michael cursed.He immediately ordered his men to chase after the man, but I knew the odds were against it.Even though it was just a quick glance, I recognized that man. It was Max. His ability to escape has always been superb, so I doubt Alpha Michael's men would be able to catch him.I glanced at Lilla beside me; sure enough, she was frozen in shock.When they got Gloria's cold body down from the tree, they found a suicide note in her pocket. It read:My dearest Alpha Michael, I'm sorry for betraying you. The child in my body was not yours, but my mate's. I lied that Luna Andrea pushed me down the stairs to cover up the truth, and I planned this all on my own to cover the truth. I thought I could keep lying, but my mate told me he was marrying another woman, and regretted everything I've done when I heard that. So, I chose to die to get rid of all my sins in one go. I'm sorry, and I pray for your happiness.GloriaHowever, the suicide note apparently wasn't enough to
"What do you plan to do? We don't have any evidence..." I said hesitantly.Enzo looked at me and raised his eyebrows slightly. "As long as a person is alive and can talk, there’s no shortage of evidence.""What do you mean?"Enzo was silent for a while before slowly saying, "Gloria's maid.""Huh? So, you want to get her to confess the truth?""Yes," Enzo said and nodded calmly."You may not be able to pry anything from her," I said with a frown. "Judging by Melissa's and Gloria's behavior today, there's a good chance they're plotting this together.""It's not that hard," Enzo said with an easy smile. "Everyone has a weakness. She won't be an exception."After speaking, he took out his phone and sent a text message. I couldn't help but ask, "Who did you contact?""Take a guess," Enzo said, winking at me."Someone that you know? I said, then added, "And a male?"Enzo laughed. "Are you jealous?"I glared at him. "You're reading too much into this.""It's my secret informant in Blue River
As it turned out, the liquid in the glass was indeed wine, and a certain amount of knockout drugs remained in it."How do you explain this?" Enzo asked with eyes cold.The scene was reversed once again, and the crowd was shocked."Oh my god, Melissa is lying!""I heard before that she's a vicious, cruel woman. It seems that it's true!"The hushed whispers of the crowd started up again, and yet..."Why should I need to explain anything?" Melissa suddenly sneered. She didn't panic at all, "I don't know how the drink in the glass became wine. The glass is in your hands, so you can say whatever you want about it naturally.""So you're saying we planned all this to frame you?" Lilla hissed, shaking with anger."I didn't say that," Melissa replied, then she looked at me pretending to be innocent, "Andrea, I would like to believe you didn't push Luna. It may be a misunderstanding, but..."Before continuing, she trailed off, choking up, "You can't unjustly accuse me just because you can't giv
When I next stepped into the conference room, I wasn't the Cold Moon Pack's Luna anymore, but the murderer who had pushed Gloria down the stairs instead.Although none of them dared to do anything to me, I could feel the burning resentment in the eyes of all the warriors present!In their minds, I was the murderer who had killed their heir.However, my mind was clear, so I did not need to cower in fear. My only regret was that the unborn child had died.So, I straightened my back and prepared to face the interrogation that was about to happen.'Don't be afraid, Andrea," Enzo said through mindlink as he sat beside me. 'Even if this matter can't be cleared up, I won't let anything happen to you.'I shook my head discreetly at him, gesturing for him not to do anything rash.'I want a clean name, Enzo. I'm your Luna. I can't carry a stain on my name, or it will become a stain on our pack.'As I said that, I turned to Alpha Michael, who was enraged. From what I could remember, Alpha Michae
For as long as I can remember, I’ve lived in a small kitchen utility room. An adopted orphan can’t have a bed. When I was young, I slept under a low table. Melissa gave me her old mattress as she grew older, which was the only comfortable thing I had. Melissa was a year younger than me, and she was Alpha Michael and Luna Ellen’s daughter. My mother was Alpha’s sister and Luna’s best friend, and she died giving birth to me. As of my father, I’ve never heard anything about him from Luna and Alpha. Not sure if he is dead. The Alpha took me in because of my alpha bloodline but they still blamed me for my mom’s death. Their hatred has caused me endless torture and bullying. When I was four, I had to help in the kitchen. When I was tall enough to reach the bed, I had to help with the beddings. They’d beat me to half dead for the smallest mistakes I made, and cold leftovers would be too much to ask for sometimes. I was never allowed to eat at the table, nor to say anything other than “s
