HARPER

I hurriedly headed to the kitchen with my limp right leg. Mabel has put a bandage on the sole of my foot, so it should be fine while my wolf recovers. Lately, my physical and energy have become weak.

I've lost almost half of my strength just because I had a miscarriage. My uncontrolled emotions also affected my wolf.

I accidentally fell down the stairs, stepped on nails that happened to be scattered on the floor, and accidentally hit Mattia's bedside table.

That wasn't a bad thing, but the worst-case scenario was that I broke the snow globe display that was on Mattia's nightstand. Really, I accidentally knocked on the snowball, so it broke and scattered on the floor.

"What the hell, she's not in her room! Where is she?" suddenly, I heard Mattia's voice from the hallway outside. Even though he was far away, I could already smell his scent.

Mattia's scent began to change when I realized he was my mate. Even before, I always felt like vomiting every time I smelled Mattia's scent.

    MATTIA"Holly shiit," I grumbled, seeing that my snowball had broken into several pieces. I sat on the edge of my bed, and it was like this wasn't me.The minutes that passed they have led me to understand what I really felt. Am I really mad that this snow globe display broke? Or am I just annoyed to see Harper can't take care of herself and hurt her leg?"I'm sorry, Mr Mattia! I'm really sorry for what happened," Mabel's voice came back to me.In this Mannor, Mabel is respected as the head maid. She is old in every way. Likewise, I put my trust in her."I don't understand this!" I said"Pardon?""No one ever dared to argue with me every time I punished the servants in this house, but Harper even stood in front of you to argue with me. Now, I wonder, is she really a stupid woman or just too kind?""I think you already know the answer to your question, sir!"I lifted my head and looked at Mabel with sad eyes. "I don't understand what I'm feeling right now!""Are you okay, sir?""When w

    HARPEROnce again, it seems like I committed a grave sin. He was letting Mattia kiss me again and again, even though I still remember how he pushed me after our first kiss. He even wiped his lips, erasing my scent from his body."What did he say? Just act like the kiss never happened? There will never be a second kiss? How could that be? Now I ended up in the same position," I thought, talking to my wolf.If I feel hit by my sanity, it's different from my wolf. He liked doing physical touches like this. My wolf was eager to mark Mattia, and as the Alpha of the Rivermoon pack, I should have claimed Mattia as my mate.I know my wolf, and I will suffer if we refuse this kiss. However, look at how Mattia kisses me. He hugged my body so tightly from behind even my buttocks could now feel Mattia's manly erection under there."Hmpphhhh!" I sighed again.Thunder boomed in the sky and made me aware of my attitude. This is not good; I have to act to reject Mattia. The damn bastard who got me tr

    MATTIA"How is the result?" I asked.Mabel stood with her head bowed in the corner of the room. She'd been paying attention to me since I did my health check. Today, my doctor couldn't be there; he told me his daughter was coming.I have known Carol since her father took care of me. She is a well-respected doctor at the capital's hospital and occasionally appears on TV as a role model for young doctors. She is also a guest speaker at certain events.Carol has wavy blonde hair, a tall, slim body, and skin as white as porcelain. She always asked me to talk every time her father treated me at her house, and since then, we have become close enough to be talking friends."Your health is fine; there is nothing wrong with the initial examination. I will take your blood for further examination," she said.I tilted my head. "Really? But why do I feel a little different lately?""When was the last time you drank alcohol?" Carol asked, but her eyes became narrow as if to inspect me.I took a dee

    HARPERIt exploded, I couldn't avoid it."I'm sorry. I used the wrong place to grill the meat, so it exploded," I said in a low voice. Everyone was staring at me, especially women I didn't know, and I immediately checked my body."The explosion sounded quite loud. Are you sure you're okay?" said the woman again. She glanced at my oven; it was already burnt. The black trace of the explosion also hit the wall, but it wasn't bad.They don't know that I have wolf energy, which is a reflex to protect me in certain situations. So, the warm feeling from this explosion won't have a severe effect on me.My eyes shifted to meet Mattia's gaze, and suddenly, I remembered how Mattia's head was beneath me. It made me shake my head, trying to get those dirty thoughts out of my head."Hey, I asked you. Are you sure you're okay?" asked this woman again. This time, she tried to look at my eyelids and my earlobes. I'm not injured at all, but my face is really messed up right now.Mabel was still silent

    MATTIAI got to the point where I was so worried about Harper. Mabel was there to explain why Harper was so determined to learn to cook. It's all related to the special food list that I made. I want all the rules in this house, under my control.My health, my food, my sports equipment, and other things. Not without reason, I have to be so tough to live alone here, far from the country of my birth."I really can't believe this, since when were you married? I mean, how? No reception party or anything like that? Oh my god, Mattia, you really managed to surprise me. Is this a prank?"Carol bombarded me with questions, and I knew that many of my acquaintances would react the same way. This is a personal matter of mine, and I don't want to talk about it openly."Harper is really my wife," I replied"You make your wife wear a maid uniform? Working in the kitchen? Do you think I will believe it?""What reason do you have for not believing?"Carol took a deep breath; she had packed all her equ

    MATTIA"Are you guys at the airport? Alright, I can't pick you up, so my people will pick you up," I saidMy friends finally came, according to their wishes. I also need them for several things here. I had planned to send them here; somehow, Harper was now in my life."How?" I asked. I ordered someone to watch Harper every time she returned to her house. My people will only watch Harper from a distance every morning and evening.After I got news about Harper, I asked my people to return. Why am I doing this? I didn't find the answer either."A woman came to visit; they said this woman was Harper's stepmother.""Stepmother?" I replied"Yes, Sir! The Harper people don't like this woman's arrival. It's as if his presence is not welcome here.""That's interesting! If so, I'll come there. You can go home now," I ordered.No matter how I think, looking for loopholes for my feelings. I can't find why I still think about Harper, even though she is far from me. So, I had to do some tests to fi

    HARPERMy heart completely sank. Somehow, Mattia always manages to put me in an awkward position. What's with his sudden presence? He even witnessed my fight with my stepmother.From the table in the overseer's tent, I watched the workers tilling new land for my vineyard. Some of them were also lifting wine barrels into the warehouse. We have built a new warehouse for that."What are you thinking about? Let me guess, thinking about your mother's problems or Mattia, who came without being invited yesterday?" Agnes interrupted my reverie. She sat next to me, munching on her potato chips.My chest rumbled as I imagined what had happened yesterday. I have to admit, Mattia was very brave, fending off my stepmother's slap. But that's not the point. Why did she come? I'm sure the reasons she told me at that time weren't true."Harper? I asked you, and I felt ignored. That was damn good.""Agnes, I can't think about anything at the moment. I mean, my mind is half confused," I said honestly.A

I didn't think about treating her the same as before, so I'm considering giving her punishment now.Harper probably thinks I will treat her like the woman I choose. From the start, we didn't have anything in common in some ways. Harper and I feel at different poles, which makes us always fight."Where's Harper?" I askedMabel was holding my briefcase; she was about to put it back in its place. "She's in the kitchen, doing her job as usual.""Have the others met her?""It's a complicated thing.""Why? Is Harper causing trouble with them?" I made sure.Mabel just smiled faintly, and I already understood the meaning of that smile. She walked away. I removed my tie and rolled up my shirt sleeves to my elbows. It gives a firm sensation to my biceps.Staring at the waves that I now feel, it becomes interesting. My feet stepped towards the kitchen; I wanted to

    MATTIAI tried to give Lucia clear boundaries about how she should behave. When I said that our relationship was over a long time ago, Lucia was silent for a moment. She met my gaze more heavily than usual.“You don’t know what you’ve said Mattia, if you want to hear my explanation then….”“Wait a minute!” I raised my hand, asking Lucia to stop talking for a moment. There was an incoming call, and when Mabel’s name was written on the screen. I felt the need to answer her phone call.“I am sorry sir, I wanted to let you know that Harper went out. She took her car, to a bar! Probably her regular bar downtown,” Mabel said.I rolled my eyes lazily, how could this woman act naughty when I wasn't around. She should have asked my permission first, let alone hearing her go to the bar. I just felt uneasy."We're going home now," I said. Suddenly I felt, information from Mabel was much more important to me first, than listening to Lucia's complaints for now. I couldn't stand hearing Harper go t

    HARPERManage my feelings!Yes, that's what I should have done. I didn't expect Mattia to do something like this with me. He's never invited me to his bed before. Even though we went through everything with the contract, last night was different.I can't involve my feelings with him any more than this, because after our contract is over, I will leave this Mannor, and we will divorce. I have even found a new life to repair my vineyard, so it is easy for me to pay off my debt to Mattia.“Have you taken your morning pill?” Mabel asked, as soon as she entered my room. Today, I had the courage to have dinner with the others, even though Mattia and Lucia were not there. Mabel really controls everything for me in mannor. She knows everything about me, and there is nothing I can hide from her. Even when Mattia and I have a relationship that requires us to touchI think, because Aldo was there, so I felt calm enough for that. But, I couldn't avoid Nicolas' gaze on me. It seemed like he hated m

    MATTIAFor the first time, I felt a flutter when a woman said something about love to me. It seemed like I was really out of my mind. Letting Harper do all this to me. As if I would never finish getting whatever she needed from me.It was like, I had to endure a lot of things, only to find Harper as such a calm innocent girl, and I also got comfort from her. I felt something stirring inside Harper. Maybe she was feeling excited, so she didn't think about what came out of her mouth.“How did you do it?” I said.“Doing what?” she replied. I just realized, her face blushed redder than before. Her cheeks also looked more adorable, right?However, this reality really hit me in a matter of seconds. I thought, I would be lulled by it, making Harper the light in the darkness of my life. Maybe Harper is not dirty in me.But, there will be no happily ever after fairy tale for us “Alright, go to sleep. You’ve worked hard today” I said, caressing her cheek.

    HARPERMattia's command was like magic to me. In a matter of seconds, he could control me as he pleased. I thought, after the incident at the pool, he wouldn't have any intention of touching me for a while. That's why I kept my distance.Ever since Nicolas embarrassed me in front of Lucia, I don't have the guts to sit at the same table with them. Not because I'm scared, but I'm more afraid of not being able to control my wolf.If my emotions are controlled by my wolf, then I can no longer think rationally. That way, I'm afraid of hurting Lucia. I don't know how long I can hold myself back. It's like I have to control everything in a short time. My wolf is wilder than me, and humans like the inhabitants of this manor, won't be able to control my anger.So, I chose to keep everything to myself, it was better that Mattia didn't know anything that Lucia and Nicolas had done to me. I didn't seem interested in causing a scene between them. Although Mattia probably wouldn't defend me. I mean

    MATTIA“What? It’s been two days since he had dinner in his room, and today he doesn’t want to join the others?” I asked.Mabel nodded her head “Yes sir, she said she will have dinner in her room again today”“What does she do all day, Mabel?”“Just the usual routine. Not much new for her to do. She’s been into gardening lately, like planting some roses.”I thought, this might have something to do with the nightmare that Harper had. I also haven't talked to Harper for a few days, because I'm busy with my work. Moreover, I want to attack Andreas and his family.“Are you sure she didn't say anything to you, Mabel?”“Nothing Mr. Mattia,” she replied.It was me who was not satisfied with Mabel's answer. But, after I thought about it again. I don't think there should be any guilt between us. I mean, Harper shouldn't have taken everything Lucia said to her at the pool seriously.If only Harper knew that we were bound by a contract with each other. Then, there would be nothing serious to kee

    MATTIAI don't like how Aldo acts as if he understands Harper's feelings. When he asks me whether I have fallen in love with Harper, I choose not to answer.It's like, I've already decided not to go too far with this girl. However, when Mabel reported that Harper had returned to the manor, she immediately headed to the private library. It made me hate her even more, hearing that she was lonely.I don't want Harper to feel that way while I'm around her. Well, it's time to have some fun with her. I was feeling warm inside her again.It was a passionate kiss at first, until Lucia's voice came and surprised me. Her voice was high, and her eyes seemed to look down on Harper, giving off an intimidating pressure.Harper stepped to the edge of the pool. She immediately climbed up to grab her kimono towel from the hanger, but Lucia's steps were too fast to approach her. She slapped Harper right on Harper's right cheek."How dare you seduce my man!" said Lucia.I got out of the pool. "Lucia, wh

I mean, why does she have to do something like this?I've let go of everything. Letting them get married, and I lost my baby. But, as if not satisfied to let me be at peace. Teressa only came to threaten me.“Teressa, instead of arguing with me using only your mouth. Are you interested in fighting me in the arena?” I said tiredly. I was really fed up with her ranting. What a spoiled girl, she only relies on her mother, and dares to talk to me like this.“I won’t do such a damn thing! For what? I really appreciate my body now. You just don’t know how much Wilder paid to hire a specialist doctor for my pregnancy program.”"Then? Are you pregnant?" I asked, smiling faintly. I'm sure Teressa took my question as a threat to belittle her.She should have known, that I'm not the Harper I used to be. I mean, I even have power now. I'm the wife of a Mafia, wh

    MATTIAAs Lucia wished, she followed me to the office. I just thought she needed to find a new atmosphere, especially now that she has decided to take a break from modeling. So maybe she needs an idea of how to work in the business world."No, I don't like this one. Just look at her clothes. Are you planning to come here to work, or to be a stripper, huh?" snapped Lucia.Ten women were already in line, waiting for my next test. I had intended to choose a candidate I considered worthy to be my secretary. However, Lucia rejected almost all of them."This is the last one, sir," Rocco reminded me."What?" I gasped.It turned out that Lucia rejected ten women. She insisted on choosing a secretary for me because she was a woman and had women's feelings."Lucia, I think we need to find the right one and….""They are all wrong, Mattia!" said Lucia firmly.The last woman raised her eyebrows in annoyance.

    HARPERAs I expected, Aldo wasn't very forthright with his explanation. I asked him to tell me what he knew, but he was just busy calming me down.However, I can't deny it. Aldo really made me feel better. He has his own way, as if he understands the anxiety I feel. He tries to dive into my feelings, then so cleverly understands me.Two days later, I was back to being usual Harper. Even though I'm not a morning person, today I was quite excited to do some things."So, I think it's time for us to do a major renovation of your father's office.
