Freya's POVI awoke abruptly, my forehead damp with icy perspiration...Throughout the night, I was plagued by nightmares. One moment, I dreamt of the car accident from before, the despair of being trapped beneath the wreckage, unable to budge; the next moment, I dreamt of Kingsley accepting Tracy with a swollen belly as his mate.A deep masculine voice suddenly reached my ears, "How are you feeling?"I moved with stiffness and turned my head slowly.Kingsley lay on his side beside me, his brow furrowed, seemingly displeased by the sudden interruption of his sleep.Memories of last night flooded my mind in an instant, including how I had shouted his name at the top of my lungs due to his passionate thrusts.Pretending not to hear Kingsley, I grabbed my clothes and attempted to rise.Kingsley swiftly extended his arm, holding me back. "Where do you think you're running off to?""I'm not trying to escape! I just..." I was on my hands and knees, clutching the covers around my body, my fa
Freya's POVMichael scrutinized me from head to toe and inquired, "I didn't catch sight of your resume.""Allow me to introduce myself. I am Freya, a 25-year-old graduate from the acting department at Film University.""In what types of films or television shows have you acted?"My fingers clenched and my voice dropped. "None.""None?" Michael appeared slightly taken aback. "So you lack acting experience."I remained silent."If you haven't worked in the industry since graduating, why do you now wish to pursue it again?"I spoke truthfully, "I'm in need of money."Michael regarded me with surprise.I pressed on, "Furthermore, I require a reputable job to prove my worth. Director Harper, I implore you to grant me the opportunity to audition for the role and reconsider your decision."Before Michael could respond, a noise emanated from inside the room, causing him to retract into the space before reemerging a few moments later.As the door closed, I caught a fleeting glimpse of two long
Kingsley's POVI was engrossed in my paperwork when Freya burst into my office unannounced."Kingsley, why did you get my friend involved in what happened between us? Why did you instruct the bank to stop granting loans to Novia's family company?" she demanded.Confronted by Freya's probing, I responded icily, "Why don't you ask your best friend what she did?""What did she do? She's just trying to help me!" Freya retorted, her voice seething with anger."Do you really think that's the reason?" I nonchalantly grabbed the file beside me and flung it in her direction. "I'm not that bored!"Freya furrowed her brow, her expression tinged with confusion.As she perused the contents of the documents, her brow furrowed even further.The files consisted of numerous chat logs and screenshots, all constituting "evidence" of Tracy's dirt.There were over a dozen accounts involved in these incidents, but all the IP addresses traced back to one location.And that location happened to be Novia's ap
Freya's POVThe following day.My Twitter account, Starry, had not been updated for half a month, so I decided to inspect it manually. There were thousands of messages, mostly demanding more content, but I also came across several private messages from disgruntled fans, many of whom were Tracy's supporters. It was true that ever since the success of Mystery Lover, I had inadvertently overshadowed Tracy in the movie. Initially, I had no intention of participating in the fight scene as Tracy's understudy because I wanted to limit my interactions with her. However, the crew persistently approached me, offering a substantial sum of money. At the time, I was occupied with preparing birthday gifts for Kingsley and needed the additional funds, so I eventually accepted the role.I used to endure those criticisms, but when I discovered that Kingsley had facilitated Tracy's acquisition of the Luna role in The Legend, a part that rightfully belonged to me, the onslaught of criticisms now bec
Kingsley's POV"Hey, dude, I witnessed your wife entwined with another man, hand in hand."As Mark's message reached me, I found myself engrossed in a meeting with the senior leaders of the Wright Group. While the group's vice president addressed us, my phone buzzed on the table.I reached for my phone, tapping on the message Mark had sent. Attached thoughtfully at the end of his message was a photo he had taken. The image was captured from afar, obscuring the details of the figures involved, but the attire undeniably belonged to Freya. The man accompanying her remained concealed amidst the greenery lining the street, rendering him indistinct.My brow furrowed.Possibly due to the delay in my response, Mark's impatience grew evident through his subsequent messages:"Is your Luna leaving you for someone new?""But this new paramour is dreadfully unworthy, taking her to such a humble eatery. What does she see in him?"I disregarded his inquiries, opting instead to message Freya."Wher
Kingsley's POVJust then, the door swung open, and my Luna, Freya, walked in, holding a cup of coffee. She spoke in a sweet voice, "Kingsley, here's your coffee."Setting the coffee on the table, she pouted, appearing somewhat reluctant, but then flashed me a smile. I reached for the cup, taking a sip; it was the exact flavor I enjoyed."Can I head out now? You seem to be quite occupied," Freya asked, her gaze briefly shifting towards Jeremy, who stood off to the side.I felt a slight pang of dissatisfaction, her constant desire to leave me causing the wolf within me to instinctively whimper."Wait for me in the side lounge," I responded unhappily.Why did my Luna always entertain the idea of leaving me? Was she trying to play hard to get?? Or was this her way of punishing me?Freya's expression hinted at displeasure; she started to say something, yet obediently made her way to the side lounge. The door closed with a thud, a silent expression of her discontent."Women are always lik
Freya's POVSitting in the car, I stared out of the window, feeling a sense of boredom creeping in. Suddenly, Kingsley's cell phone rang. I glanced at it, and the caller ID once again displayed "Tracy".Unconsciously, I clenched my hand. Kingsley pressed the answer button, but the person on the other end seemed at a loss for words. He frowned, then hung up the phone and raised his eyes to say to me, "You should go in first. Joyce will meet you at the entrance; she has an invitation."I regarded him with a cold stare. Kingsley's voice was faint as he continued, "I need to attend to something urgent." I averted my eyes and let out a mocking smile. Urgent matter? Anything related to Tracy was probably an emergency in his eyes. The car quickly arrived at the venue of the party. Joyce was standing by the entrance, clearly annoyed as she saw me stepping out of the car.Upon entering the hotel, a group of people came over to exchange pleasantries. "Joyce, you look stunning today." "I
Kingsley's POV"Hey, I thought you weren't going to come," Mark exclaimed.Upon my arrival, I noticed Mark and Finley strolling towards me."Kingsley, this guy said he's bringing a date tonight. Can you believe it?" Mark pointed at Finley and said."Oh, yeah? Who is it?" I replied absentmindedly, unable to divert my gaze from scanning the surroundings."That's the one I mentioned to you guys before, the one I met at the hospital," Finley explained.Mark's curiosity was evident, "Come on, spill the beans. What's she like?"Finley smiled and said, "She's very straightforward and cute. Her thoughts are written all over her face."Mark teased, "Brother, women are the most enigmatic beings in the world. Don't be deceived by their delicate appearance."Finley chuckled, "She's different. I'm quite certain she's the most captivating person I've ever met."Mark grew more intrigued, "What kind of charm does this woman possess? You've onl
Kingsley's POVThree years later."Kingsley, these two totes contain bedding and pillows for our kids in kindergarten. I've labeled their names on the outside of the bags with a grease pencil. When you take them to kindergarten, please inform their teacher to ensure they don't get mixed up," Freya said, going through the luggage she had packed a few days earlier."This is the kindergarten uniform issued," she added.I nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, it's a small matter, no problem.
Freya's POVKingsley, seething with anger, attempted to lunge forward to take Grace's life, but I intervened and stopped him."I fail to fathom why you must implicate so many innocents when the issue is plainly between us."I leaned forward onto my knees, feeling a little unstable on my feet after the physical exertion."I have nothing to explain. Just kill me," Grace said coldly.However, at that momen
Kingsley's POV"Alpha, Renee has started a war," Jeremy suddenly burst in, his face tense as he delivered the latest battle updates.As a consequence of Boone's demise, Renee became even more audacious in his rebellion. He aligned himself with the Rogues and initiated a war, seeking to establish a new pack through bloodshed and control.Naturally, Grace wouldn't make his quest simple. Under her command, her forces clashed with Renee's forces, both sides fighting to the death."Well, I
Freya's POVLate at night, I abruptly awoke, sensing a cold breeze seeping in from outside..."Freya, open the balcony door," a voice echoed persistently in my mind.I clenched my fists tightly, resisting the compelling command that echoed repeatedly.Yet, the more I concentrated on resisting the intrusive voice, the more violently my head throbbed, as if my brain were on the verge of exploding...Suddenly— a fishy sweetness surged in my throat, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out.With blood still lingering at the corner of my mouth, my body had instinctively moved to the balcony's edge and unlocked it.A shadowy figure entered, shrouded in the night's cold, promptly closing the curtains."What a beauty," remarked the visitor, revealed to be Boone, the Gamma of the Black Wolf Pack.Anger flashed in my eyes. "Boone, if you must kill me, do it now.""I will kill you, but not yet," Boone chuckled softly. "Right now, someone wishes to see you, and I must bring you to her."I gritted my t
Freya's POVIt was very quiet in the hospital room, and the wind was audibly whistling outside.I turned my head and my gaze settled on Kingsley's figure: "Kingsley, why are you here... Why am I in the hospital?"The depth of Kingsley's gaze was solemn.He slowly replied, "I brought you to the hospital today for a health check. Don't you remember? How do you feel now?""Other than my head feeling a bit cloudy, I'm fine." I raised my hand and pressed my temple.Kingsley's eyes changed for a moment, then he said in a feigned lighthearted manner, "I'll go call the doctor to come over and give you another brief checkup, is that okay?"I nodded, "Yes, thank you, Kingsley.""Just lie back, and I'll call the doctor."Kingsley stroked my hair, got up, and walked outside the hospital room. Soon he returned with a doctor who brought potions and re-administered my fluids.During this time, I lowered my head slightly, attempting to recall everyt
Kingsley's POVLate at night, I abruptly woke up. Freya lay asleep in my arms, but she wore a persistent frown, suggesting that her sleep was far from peaceful.Leaning down, I tenderly planted a kiss on her forehead. However, as soon as my kiss landed on her forehead, Freya's long legs suddenly lifted.As I was about to reach for her restless legs, Freya's foot kicked forcefully, connecting with my chest. Unexpectedly, this sent my half-kneeling body tumbling off the bed, landing on the carpet.
Freya's POVIn the afternoon, I noticed from a distance that Jeremy had brought someone to meet Kingsley. Despite my hesitation, I walked over to join them."What a surprise! I didn't expect to see you here, Alpha Kingsley," remarked the man named Renee, standing in front of Kingsley. His eyes darted around, making me feel uneasy."Renee, huh? I assume my Beta have briefed you on the partnership. Does your visit imply agreement?" Kingsley asked coldly, a frown on his face and a subtle flicker of disgust in his eyes."Of course. Nobody would decline a partnership with you, Alpha Kingsley. I just want to understand your motivation for helping me," Renee inquired cautiously."The answer is evident, isn't it? Grace is my enemy, and naturally, I want her to face consequences. You'll have control of the entire Black Wolf Pack, and I get to deal with my enemy personally. It's a fair trade, isn't it?" Kingsley responded."Indeed. Then you will come with me." Sa
Kingsley's POV"Alpha, we've received a report from Blackland," Jeremy exclaimed as he stormed into my office."Go ahead," I replied."We can confirm that Grace went back to the Black Wolf Pack with a baby, claiming it's Robert's child and destined to be the Alpha of the Black Wolf Pack."I sneered, "As I expected.""Moreover, our sources report an increase in defenses and patrols by the Black Wolf Pack lately."I paced back to the map. "Look here, Blackland is surrounded by mountains, with only narrow paths between the hills providing access to the pack's interior. After Grace returned, every entrance was strictly guarded. It presents quite a challenge, but I've heard that the Black Wolf Pack faced an attack by a group of Rogues some time ago."Turning back to face Jeremy, I continued, "They might have a secret passage into Blackland."Jeremy responded, "But would that group of Rogues be willing to collaborate with us?""We don't need to
Kingsley's POV"We need to figure out what's going on with the Black Wolf Pack right now." I met privately with Jeremy."Alpha Kingsley, what are you going to do? Grace can be tricky, and she's not stupid," Jeremy asked.I smiled and turned to him, "I think it's time to meet with my dear sister, Joyce."Grace had been imprisoned by me as an accomplice since the deaths of Alex and Robert. As for my sister Joyce, I knew she wasn't involved in all the planning, so I'd just ring-fenced a territory for her to live in.Jeremy stroked his chin as if trying to understand my true intentions. "Very well, I'll make arrangements as soon as I can."He paused for a moment as I gave him my orders. "Tell the guys to get ready for action."Jeremy nodded and then left.After a while, Joyce's voice rang out from the other side of the door. "Alpha Kingsley!"I walked over and opened the door.She was wearing subtle makeup; her perfume didn't smell as strong as it usually did, and she was acting more poli
