Amber's POV Snow is starting to fall again, making the air temperature colder. In the human world, perhaps people would prefer to stay indoors, sleep under thick blankets, and be lazy, or just enjoy a cup of hot chocolate with a jar of biscuits. However, that does not apply to the Werewolves who are busy preparing for the event to welcome Kanza's return to health. Their activities did not escape the gaze of a pair of gray-eyed eyes that had been looking ironically from the balcony upstairs. I put on a sad expression while looking at the busy flock below, but my thoughts wandered far away. Thinking about the fate of this pack and Everett who is still developing a strategy to bring down Nash and overthrow him from his position. And restore the freedom of all the packs here. Meanwhile, Everett never allowed me to take part in his big meetings. Everett obviously wouldn't allow it, maybe he didn't want to make me cry again when he saw how terrible my condition was. Because I have
Nash's POV "I never broke my promise. The witch kept her promise to me by successfully turning Jack into a mad dog. I also have to keep my promise to her," I explained, bringing up the agreement between myself and the witch. Even though I really wanted to kill him. "Even so, it would be too soon to release her now!" said Derry rejecting my decision. Even though he was the one who insisted that I accept the agreement with the witch, it's hard to believe. "I have to do it, on the big day of Ruby's appointment as my queen, I don't want anything to ruin that day. I want to be as calm as possible." Yes, Ruby will definitely be sad if an attack occurs on her happy day, I feel too upset, it makes me still think about people who have hurt me a lot, and sometimes I feel very angry, I influence Ruby a little by bringing up the crime she committed against Amber, but instead of apologizing, she just sobbed while continuing to ask me to immediately crown herself as queen. "But Jack just d
Amber's POVI looked up at the night sky filled with stars from the bedroom balcony. It feels like it's been a long time since I've had the chance to enjoy the night sky. And starting today, I can feel many changes taking place in my life. Somehow, I feel like tomorrow will be better than today. I started to feel what happiness is again, even though there were still many questions in my mind after all that happened. "Beautiful?" I was surprised to hear a baritone voice behind me followed by the scent of lavender which immediately filled my sense of smell. I don't know how long Everett has been standing behind me. I immediately turned to look at him and again I was surprised because Everett immediately hugged my waist and pulled my body closer to him. "You... you surprised me," I said nervously, feeling my heart jump because of Everett's actions. We're too close! Even from this close distance, I could feel his breath on my face. I turned my face back slightly, which I was
Amber's POV His gaze grew dimmer, only emptiness could be seen in his gray eyes. "I... am a murderer. I... am a monster," said Everett with a blank look. Those gray eyes looked so miserable. I don't really understand Everett's ambiguous words. But, I think I'm starting to understand the current situation. "It doesn't matter." Everett looked very surprised when I suddenly hugged him. "Wh... are you going to hate me after you know that? I... am not as good as you think. Amber... I..." "Shhh, it's okay." Everett was shocked again when I put my finger to his lips. His gray eyes stared at me in disbelief. I stared deeply at the gray bead. I don't know where the courage came from, I was able to look into his eyes this intensely. "Do you understand what I'm saying?" Everett asked as he started to bury his face in the crook of my neck. "Maybe. I think I've heard of that tragedy before. So, that tragedy is related to you?" "After that incident, Nash began to have ambitions to
Amber's POVFinally, we went home and arrived at the castle at noon. I saw that the party preparations for welcoming Khanza were almost complete. Tonight's event looks like it will run smoothly and calmly. I saw children running around and accidentally one of them bumped into me who was walking. "So - sorry," said the little girl named Marry. “It's okay darling, are you hurt?” I asked worried about her. Marry looked at me and shook her head. She smiled very sweetly. Then a boy who looked very much like Marry came up to me. "I'm sorry, my little sister," said Steven, bowing his body. "It doesn't matter, it was my fault that Marry accidentally bumped into me," I said, stroking both of their heads. “Do you guys want candy?” asked Everett who came after me. Everett seemed to really like the twins. "Want to!" the two exclaimed as they took the candy given by Everett. "Thank you," continued the two and just left. Leaving Everett smiling at me. "Why are you following me?"
Amber's POV I sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Khanza who was sleeping with a sad look. Have I forgotten to pay attention to Khanza these few days? I didn't realize she had a scar like this on her neck. The scar looked new, even though it had been treated a long time ago. It seems that Khanza is very tormented by the pain that comes from the scar. The affection that arose when I saw her for the first time made me regret not having paid closer attention to her. So far I've lost a lot of valuable things, and I don't want to lose any more. I woke up from my reverie when I heard the sound of Khanza waking up from her sleep. "Khanza..." I called and I saw the little girl looking at me with a look that I couldn't decipher. "Sorry for disturbing your rest time, Amber," said Khanza politely. The girl smiled with her pale face. I was a little surprised to see her attitude today. Moreover, her situation looked very different compared to when I first met her. The girl's body
Everett's POV On the way, I felt something strange. The sky felt empty with no wind blowing at all. As if time had stopped, only a few crows were continuing to fly above there. And sure enough, suddenly my car stopped instantly. Made me amazed. "What is it?" I asked confused. Ian shook his head not knowing. "I'll go out first, wait here," he said and got out of the car. I couldn't wait and immediately came down. As soon as I got out of the car. My eyes are perfectly round. Suuuts.. With quick movements, I deflected the wooden arrow. I saw that there was writing on the cloth attached to the arrow. "'Hurry back' What does that mean? Who shot this arrow?" Reflexively, I started looking for the owner of this arrow. And bingo! Behind the tree, I saw someone in a red hood watching me before he was swallowed by the darkness of the forest. "Who's he?" “Mr. Everett!” Ian shouted and distracted me and walked over to him. I turned my gaze to everyone who was now looking at
Amber's POV I closed my eyes when I saw a very scary figure walking towards me. My body felt stiff, now I was too afraid to move my body at all. A gust of wind hit my body. The sound of the rogue's footsteps could not be heard again. The terrifying aura seemed to disappear. I slowly opened both eyes. He is no longer in this room. I looked around looking for him but to no avail. He wasn't in the room at all. Suddenly a big bang startled me. I gasped in surprise when I felt the floor shaking slightly. I widened my eyes realizing one thing. I quickly ran towards the collapsed wall where the rogue had hit it and knocked his body down. I looked down. There were rogues and Everett who were glaring at each other. "Who are you? What are you doing here?" shouted Everett with passionate anger. I don't know when Everett came back. However, there was a feeling of relief that made me calmer. I couldn't hear what the rogue was saying. But I clearly heard him faintly mention a
