I was standing in front of Tom and Jessy who were staring at me in amazement making me blush with embarrassment at their subjective looks. Frankly, I know that I have always been very pretty. It is not for nothing that I was the beauty queen in my high school two years in a row and I would still have been if this whole story had not fallen on me so suddenly. I wrapped a strand of my hair around my finger as I smiled embarrassedly.Honestly, I've always received praise in my life, haven't I? The most beautiful girl in high school, always cool and sexy, so why did I find myself so embarrassed in front of the looks of these two men?I saw Jessy moving and approaching me as I remembered what happened between us during the day. I blushed like a peony shifting my foot back so as not to let too much closeness be created between us. My heart was racing way too much with it and I knew it wasn't good.Neither for him nor for me.But no matter how hard I tried to put some distance between us, Je
We were in the limo and I watched Elsa out of the corner of my eye. She seemed concerned and that picked attention up. Did she get upset because of what happened earlier? Or was there another point that was troubling her? My closeness with Jessy? Or just Jessy.If I should be sincere, Jessy was very daring in front of her, and I know by experience, that bulliers don't like to be challenged by their victims.It reminds me of Chad and his gang, when they took on a geek and the latter faced them, of course, it drove them crazy.This superiority complex.Elsa meanwhile had something else than what Sophia could imagine. She thought about Greg and Sophia finally seeing each other today. She knew what was going on behind the scenes, in and out of the pack, and hoped that until Sophia was officially introduced as her nephew's mate, the latter wouldn't get carried away by his feelings and jump on his Luna.She sighed, this evening was important for Sophia. This is why she had no choice but to
Hair as dark as ink, a delicate but masculine face, an intense, captivating, and cold gaze, scarlet pupils, a muscular but sophisticated body, a princely look with an elegant gait, and an unequaled charisma.That was the first impression this man gave me.He was breathtakingly handsome, in my memories he was already magnificent but after just two years, he seemed to have become more famous.Every time he passed before women, they seemed to pass out when he didn't look at them again. He was cold and impassive as if the people around were just worms. His gaze on them was blank and I felt intimidated.He was not like in my memories, warm and smiling, no there, he gave me the impression of considering the people around him like vulgar insects that he could crush with a gesture.Yet he did nothing, said nothing, while walking towards us on this red carpet which accentuated his pace making him sparkle with a thousand lights. His eyes seemed more captivating on these lights and this shade,
Elsa had gone to chat with the other guests, she seemed like a fish in the water as she chatted happily with some truly distinguished people.As for me, I was on the balcony behind with a glass of champagne in hand - at least I had to enjoy it even if I was not on my mind.Indeed I was livid and had been for more than an hour. The reason: Elsa comes out of nowhere that, I, Sophia Carpenter, a young bachelor from a small country town, will become the personal assistant of the richest man in the world.Wait, I don't have the proper knowledge, let alone any experience with referrals. Then, how I might be qualified for this position?Honestly, this kind of job requires in-depth knowledge of the business world and a certain maturity, but frankly, has my file been checked? I just turned 18, my baccalaureate is very recent, I don't even know the market changes and business is a foreign word in my dictionary.How could I hold this position? Unless Elsa put the wrong information in my file. D
I looked into Greg's eyes hoping to see an ounce of warmth towards me, a little recognition, but he didn't seem to want to remember me. What could I have been thinking? A man so rich probably wouldn't want to be likened to me, a vulgar provincial girl.I'm certainly famous on Instagram but anyone with a pretty face can be if they have enough skill to know how to do it. I bit my lip before deciding to leave. He'll be my future boss and we'll have plenty of time to see each other, every day, be close to each other and… I blushed before shaking my head.What am I thinking about when the man in my fantasies doesn't have the same thoughts as me? If I continue like this I'm going to look crazy and he's going to file a complaint for sexual harassment. With the fortune he has, it's sure that I'll rot in jail and I couldn't take revenge on the Alpha of Soul Moon. I took a deep breath before regaining my composure. I bowed to greet him and leave but he spoke again."You haven't changed... You s
If there's one thing I've never liked even though we only spent a little time together, it's lying to Alen, well to Greg. I never knew how to do it and I don't want to do it. But I have no choice, he and I live in different worlds and it's not that he's mega-rich.No, he's a human and I'm a lycan and if I understood what my mother told me before she died, relations between our two races are impossible.I bit my lip before sighing. Will my heart agree with this fact?I looked at Greg who was waiting for my answer and my heart skipped a beat again.Why did he have to be so hot? He's so sexy and damn, his face is a piece of art. I closed my eyes so as not to be distracted because I know myself, if I let myself be charmed by his face, I would start talking without control and say things that I shouldn't.I squeezed my dress with my fingertips before I heard Greg sigh."You don't have to talk to me if it's difficult. I'm just happy to see you again after all this time. On this, I will go.
"You seem in a good mood."I jumped before casting a fleeting glance at Elsa. My long silence soon caught her attention and now she's wondering. She's annoying when I'm close to Jessy yet there's nothing between us except that I find him cute - even after seeing Greg again, I tell myself that no one can be compared to him... I'm indeed a frivolous woman. So I don't want to imagine how she can react knowing that I have seen my ex again whom I was madly in love with, and it is not to be excluded that I still feel the same thing for him many years later - especially if the ex in question is her Big Boss -"I'm fine... I'm just very tired... I want to sleep."" Yes, speaking of that, you will now live with me in my house. Tom is waiting for us two streets away with your luggage"I gasped in surprise as I stood dumbfounded by this news. How does that and where does it come from all of a sudden? I don't understand and why do I have to live with her? Who did she think she was?"How do I h
Jessy was sitting in his bedroom window watching the movements in the street. He wondered why Elsa still hadn't brought Sophia back, yet her presence at one of those social parties until this time was unnecessary. He wondered if it had something to do with the famous alpha for whom Sophia was protected. Could this alpha also attend this party? Could it be to make the introductions that Elsa insisted on bringing a girl ignorant of the modalities of high society to such an event? He wondered who this person was. Elsa has relationships with a lot of people, he doesn't know the woman specifically other than she's the one who killed his parents with her own hands. So identifying exactly who would be the alpha that would make her come take care of his protection even under the request of Tom, he dries up completely.What is obvious is that this alpha must be very influential to allow the protection of Tom and Sophia despite the threats they had to face the business with Sophia's arrival at
It's impossible. Jessy is dead. Chad and the other hunters attested to it and even Spencer confirmed it to me. So how come he's here in front of us and killed my grandfather? Greg stood up, feeling better before extending his hand to me. " I imagine that like all nasty clichés, you are going to give us the presentation of this scenario?" Greg spoke, wiping invisible dirt off his shirt. " Ah, it's stronger than me, I have to explain to you" Greg rolled his eyes as he helped me up. I wanted to understand, it was not normal. Jessy sat on my grandfather's torn body making the scene both morbid and disgusting. I put a hand over my mouth in an effort not to throw up and waited with Greg, too quietly, for Jessy to finally speak. " Hmmm how to say, I am a rogue wolf? My name is Hayce and I started the war between the alliance and rogues decades ago." Greg frowned. He remembers this story. First fifty years ago, an alpha who had lost the fight for the title of pack leader had b
Morning came quickly as I was getting ready to pick up Greg. We don't know how many enemies are waiting for us there, but all the Soul Moons and some hunters have decided to leave. Even Serena decided to join us saying that there was only her to take care of her grandfather. I sighed praying Greg was safe. I don't want to lose any more people, this year has been so difficult for me. Greg is everything to me and losing him would drive me so crazy. So we went to the Shield of Rain landmark knowing that André was not going to stand in our way. He wants to eat me anyway. I trust the new Alliance, made up not only of creatures but also of alves and hunters. We are going to stop this accursed threat." But I wonder, why are there so many mutants? Don't tell me that it was only the humans that these people kidnapped that were so numerous." Chad popped the question as Elsa nodded. "You're right boy, that doesn't seem right. With the number of mutants we fought yesterday, it's ob
I woke up with a huge headache. What happened? I just remember... My eyes widened in horror as bits of memories came flooding back to me. Greg stayed there with my crazy grandfather who wants to eat him to get his power. Say that, it's creepy. I suddenly got up from the bed I was in and found Pamela looking at me with teary eyes. " Pam…" I called with a small voice and before she could answer, Elsa entered with my father's twin. my aunt " Sophie…" The woman screamed before coming to hug me. " I'm sorry... I couldn't bring him back with us." I felt my heart twist, by bringing him back, she was talking about Greg, wasn't she? I felt tears well up as Elsa sighed. Rayan came up behind Tom and Chad before being joined by Aisha and Vangard. " Sophia, we need to understand. You have to tell us what happened to get to this point. You do not mind?" I looked at Elsa before sighing. Aisha, Vangard, and Chad already know the truth. It won't surprise them but those people who r
I was lost, who was talking to me? I turned my head several times before I felt my body being swept away from behind and soon a familiar smell invaded my being. Without waiting, I placed my hand on the ones around my hips and smiled." You came." I whispered before seeing something like a passage in the wall from which Chad, Pamela, and other people came. I screamed as Pamela came to hug me." I am so happy to find you sister…" I smiled before I saw Chad and thought of Spencer. He probably saw my look because he frowned." A problem Sophia?" I swallowed hard before speaking" Chad...I'm sorry...Spencer, he's dead." Chad took a moment to understand before scowling." Dead? I don't understand…" I sighed starting to tell him what I knew and as I went Chad's face fell." So that was it…" He spoke with a smirk before pulling himself together." He made his choice and lived by... I can only pay tribute to him for that." Chad went a little far, no doubt, to mourn while Gre
Spencer felt guilty. For personal reasons, he had put the world in danger. This idea had never crossed his mind since he had become a spy in the pay of these people. But after seeing the lifeless body of this little one he had saved years ago, this little one looked at him with admiration and fascination. This little girl to whom he had promised his eternal protection. The very one who considered him a father figure and did not fail to tell that to anyone who would listen. He feels like useless shit. He had done this because he is in love, and the woman he loves is expecting their child. He had thought that this one detail justified all his choices, good or bad. But in the face of reality, he feels like useless shit left in the middle of the road. He got up going towards the lifeless body of their priestess. She had been placed there while waiting to be able to prepare a funeral worthy of the name. Her body had been lacerated on all sides and the poor girl who radiated beau
The square was silent for several seconds. It seemed as if even the wind was making an effort to be distracted. Greg put his hand to his forehead as Chad sighed deeply. It wasn't how they wanted others to find out. Especially Greg. To be an alfe in this town is a death sentence, so knowing that their Luna is one must be very surprising to them. " What did this man just say?" " It's impossible, we saw how she materialized a wolf who even spoke to her." People started muttering as the general idea was the same. It is impossible, Sophia couldn't be an alfe because even if they are strong in magic, they cannot create a living being like a wolf. Especially that of their Luna which succeeded in defeating two enemies who were approached for the position of Luna. It does not make sense. " These hunters are still trying to fool us." " It's true, they created all this shit to mess with us." " But you listened to the Alpha... As well as this hunter who seems to be close to Luna if w
I looked at my grandfather wanting to rip his head off. I was tied up with a chain around my neck. " Simple security measure. This chain prevents you from using all your powers whether they are alfe or lycan." He spoke as I glared at him. "When my mate arrives, you will pay for your misdeeds." I spat in anger as my grandfather sneered. " This is exactly what I want. He must come, then I will appropriate his incredible power." I frowned. " What?" " The plan was that you conceive of his child then, your two energies would infuse the child and I could feed on your child at birth granting me your two forms of pheromones. But it's way too long to wait, so I'll eat you right here and now." I lost my head. Eat us!? Does he talk about what I'm thinking? Isn't that cannibalism? I knew he was crazy but at this point. "YOU…" I haven't finished speaking when my mouth has been gagged, carrying me to a cell. If what my grandfather says is true, Greg must not come, he absolutely
Greg was in front of these hunters. They all looked hostile and judging by their weapons, they were ready to fight. It is true that with the tensions due to the actions of the Shield of Rain and their allies within the Alliance, it was necessary to suspect that these people would not remain quiet for long. But from there to coming within the most powerful pack of the city to challenge it, it must be admitted that these people are not lacking courage. Sure, he's pretty confident in his strength, but hunters aren't a threat to creatures for nothing. Even though they are only humans, it is clear that these people pose a real danger to creatures. Greg walked up to the guild leader with Rayan and Elsa at his side. The situation with the traitors had already been settled and right now he had only one thing in mind. Go in search of Sophia no matter where she is. He would turn over the whole earth if necessary." What are you doing here, hunters? And in these positions? Isn't that
Sophia had just been kidnapped before his eyes and he couldn't do anything. He was left helpless as his wife was taken from him without him being able to lift a finger. He had promised himself that he would always protect the one who loves him. That he would never be like his father who left his mother to die, even if he didn't love her, he could have protected her as his Luna. But the man had let people make the Luna of Soul Moon their toy, he had let his mother be killed and it had taken little for his son to follow the same fate. He doesn't understand what was going through that asshole's head. Certainly, being forced to unite with his mother must have been such hell for him that he didn't care what happened to them. Which means that he never mattered to this man either. The reason why he had prayed to the moon goddess was to allow him to meet his soul mate. To allow him to fall in love with his mate, or if he can't at first sight, to cherish and protect her so she never
