Olive’s POV

Dr. Griffin entered my room through the window. As a woman, I couldn't help but feel a bit skeptical about him entering my room without asking for my permission. However, unlike the arrogant Asmund, Griffin was smart and gentle, and I trusted that he had a good reason for being there.

I took a deep breath and turned to face him, sliding the curtain closed and shutting the window behind me.

"Dr. Griffin, why did you come in through the window? And what brings you here?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.

Dr. Griffin, who wasn't wearing his usual doctor's gown, walked closer to me. The scent of the forest clung to him, and I couldn't help but feel slightly drawn to him.

I looked up at his handsome face, feeling a flutter in my chest.

“Why are you here?” I repeated the question.

However, instead of answering me, Griffin responded with another question. “What happened to your finger?”

I looked down and noticed that my finger was still bleeding. It was the finger

    Griffin’s POV I returned to my clinic’s room inside Aaron’s castle after visiting Olive’s room. It was only when I was finally alone that I allowed my true emotions to surface. The murderous aura that had been simmering beneath the surface of my composed exterior was now on full display. Olive had confided in me, revealing that she was not the one responsible for Vera’s death. Instead, she had taken the blame upon herself in order to protect her foolish boyfriend and the Star Moon Pack. The injustice of it all made my blood boil with anger. My hands trembled uncontrollably, and the veins on my neck pulsed with the intensity of my fury. All I could think about was seeking revenge against Vincent and the Star Moon Pack. How could he ask Olive to take the blame for something she didn't do? If he truly loved her, he would never have put her in such a position. My claws sharpened as I muttered these thoughts to myself, my eyes glowing fiercely in the darkness of the night. A doctor l

    Asmund’s POV The blame lay solely on the doctor's shoulders. Had he not uttered those words, I would not be in the state of utter confusion that I find myself in now! My intention was to confront him, for it was obvious that he harbored a certain interest in our prisoner, which was why he was so attentive to her needs. However, the tables were turned on me when he leveled the same accusation against me. [“I apologize if my actions have given you the wrong impression. Right now, you seemed jealous. To me and that prisoner.”] His words lingered in my mind, refusing to dissipate. The accusation that I harbored feelings for a murderer was preposterous, yet it clung to me like a stubborn stain. Determined to prove the doctor wrong, I made my way to 0315's room after he had left. But as fate would have it, my clumsiness got the better of me. In a moment of carelessness, I tore her dress, revealing a glimpse of her bare skin. The sight of her curves ignited a fire within me, a heat th

    Olive’s POV My memories of my parents were non-existent as if they had never existed at all. All I knew was that they had been involved in a tragic car accident, a fact that my grandmother had shared with me. The news had left a deep impression on me, and I had made a solemn vow to never get behind the wheel of a car. However, it seemed that fate had other plans for me. My luck with the car was abysmal, as evidenced by the first time I had gone for a drive with Vincent. The outing ended in disaster, with Vincent accidentally killing Vera in a terrible accident. Given my track record, it was no surprise that I felt incredibly nervous when my Abuela asked me to operate the lawn tractor. I had no experience driving anything, let alone a machine as complex as this. The thought of being in control of such a powerful piece of equipment was daunting, to say the least. “You’re wasting too much time, 0315! Start your work now!” Abuela's voice pierced through the peaceful morning air, jolt

Whispers of their romance had spread like wildfire throughout the pack, and it was said that Vincent was planning to make a grand announcement at the upcoming coronation ceremony. Helen was to be introduced to everyone as his Luna, the queen of the pack.”] My emotions boiled over, and my hands clenched around the small device I held, threatening to crush it in my fury. ‘That damn bastard. He used Olive to cover his crime, and there he was, celebrating his upcoming coronation while having a good time with his new lover.’ Well, the more trash he is, the more Olive will get disappointed. "Tell me, have you discovered anything about Olive's grandmother?" I inquired. [“Regrettably, my source had no means of obtaining any information regarding the elderly woman. The Star Moon's pack was heavily fortified, and the Alp

It's his job, but the thought of him ogling her body makes me want to smash his face in! It's obvious he's got an interest in her!As much as I'd love to rip him limb from limb, I know I can't. I need him to patch her up, and for that, I need to keep my temper in check while I pace outside the door, waiting for any news.I try to distract myself, to push the anger aside, but my brother's words keep echoing in my head, driving me mad. ‘My captive can’t drive a lawn tractor.

    Olive’s POV From Griffin’s clinic, I retreated to my room. Some parts of my body were still aching, but overall, I could move normally. Just when I entered my room, I heard a knock from the door. I caught myself anticipating while looking at the entrance. But then, I reminded myself there was no need to hope that Lycan Aaron would come here to check on me. After all, he vowed something like this: ["I assure you, without a shadow of a doubt, that Vera will forever remain the sole woman in my life. I will never fall in love with the murderer who robbed Vera’s precious life. Never.”] Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine that Aaron and I would find ourselves in such a complicated relationship. Yet, I felt a pang of hurt when I heard those words. It was irrational, I knew, but emotions seldom follow logic. With a heavy sigh, I made my way towards the door. And when I opened it, I was met with a sight that left me dumbfounded.

That’s why even if I heard that Dr. Griffin healed my mate, I couldn’t bring myself to check her.‘Because if I see her face, I feel like I might betray Abuela.’ Knock. Knock.A soft knock echoed through the walls of my office, drawing my attention to the door.

I came here to inform you about the upcoming coronation ceremony in the Star Moon Pack.”When I heard the name of the Pack, my face contorted."Although I know you don't want to witness their Alpha heir ascend to the Alpha position, you must come, Lycan Aaron," Beta Jasfer reminded me.I let out a frustrated sigh, my grip on the pen tightening until it snapped in my hand.

I was well aware that it was an impossible request. Yet, in recent days, he had exhibited a lesser degree of anger and violence. This gave rise to a false hope within me that perhaps, just perhaps, he would approve to my desire to witness my beloved Alpha's coronation. Alas, my efforts were in vain.Crying for a long time, and my eyes went soggy. I didn’t know how much time passed, and only when I got out of the castle, I realized that I was late for work."Abuela will undoubtedly be furious," I murmured, quickening my steps in a desperate attempt to make up for lost time.

My lost memories. Being fooled by Griffin. Finding out my memories. And marrying Aaron again. Years have passed since my life took a complete 180-degree turn, transitioning from a captive to becoming the beloved of my redemption.

With his jet-black hair, round eyes, rosy cheeks, and vibrant red lips, it’s evident that he takes after his father, Aaron, the Alpha Lycan of the Silver Moon Pack.

Meanwhile, Asmund asked Griffin, “Was he really poisoned?” I looked up at Griffin and listened to his answer. “Yes. It seemed he took the poison before the fight. Fortunately, he was strong. If he had been a little bit late, the poison might have taken his life. And…” Griffin couldn’t continue his words as Asmund grabbed his collar. “YOU SH*T. ARE YOU F*CKING SURE THAT YOU WEREN’T INTO IT? You were so desperate to win this fight and steal Olive once again. I wouldn’t doubt that you planned this with the Elders.” However, Anna disagreed, “I don’t think so.” Everyone’s gazes turned to Anna. She stood up and explained, “Look at him right now, Asmund.” Asmund let go of Griffin’s collar and observed his situation. He was wounded, and some parts of his body were bleeding. “He wasn’t

    Olive’s POV In my room, I paced back and forth, anxiously waiting for news of the battle. It seemed like neither side had suffered any casualties yet. I pondered, “What should I do to put an end to this fight?” As I thought deeper, an idea struck me - I could hurt myself. “If I pretend to be injured, maybe they will stop fighting,” I mused. I scanned my room for something I could use, but the servants had removed all sharp objects after I had used a vase to harm myself. “Maybe I can break a hanger and use it,” I thought, quickly opening a cabinet. Without wasting a moment, I swiftly opened a cabinet, aware that time was of the essence. As I scanned the contents of the cabinet, my attention was drawn to a mysterious box nestled inside. Curiosity piqued, I couldn’t help but wonder what purpose the box served. Acting on instinct, I reached out and slowly opened it, revealing a torn white dress that had been meticulously sewn. My mind raced as I recognized the dress. “This is…” S

    Third Person’s POV “Wolf out, and let’s have a real fight,” Griffin said as he wiped the blood on his lips. “We can’t just play around. You knew why I came here, and that is to steal your wife again.” Aaron’s smile faded, and he took a shallow breath, meeting Griffin’s gaze with an impassive silence. “I’ll snatch Olive away from you,” Griffin persisted. In an instant, Aaron’s killer instinct kicked in, evident to everyone around him. His gaze transformed, no longer gentle but filled with a fiery determination. His bride. His woman. His chosen mate. As Griffin threatened to steal Olive once again, Aaron’s wolf emerged, his deep blue eyes devoid of mercy. Griffin already knew what was coming next. He swiftly shifted into his wolf form, and in an instant, a massive black wolf stood before him. Everyone’s eyes widened as they felt a sense of fear wash over them upon seeing the magnificent black wolf. Beta Xyrus, Griffin’s father, witnessed the transformation of the Alpha Lycan

The clash was set to take place in the training hall of Aaron’s castle, a grand venue capable of accommodating a vast number of spectators. Even from the confines of my room, the resounding cheers of the eager crowd reached my ears, signaling the imminent commencement of the battle. However, amidst the excitement, I found myself overwhelmed with a sense of despair. “I couldn’t prevent this,” I whispered softly, my hands tightly clenched in my lap. Deep down, I dreaded the thought of Griffin meeting his demise at the hands of Aaron, the very person I had grown to love despite the absence of my memories. Determined to take action before it was too late, I made my way to Griffin’s clinic prior to the commencement of the fight. “Griffin?” I called out. As I entered the room, my eyes met Griffin’s figure standing by the window. He turned towards me, a warm smile gracing his face. “Hell

As the serving lady pulled back the curtain, I prepared myself for Aaron’s reaction.His eyes widened at first, but then a gentle smile spread across his face. “You look beautiful in it, my dear wife,” he said.Blushing, I couldn’t meet his gaze and felt the warmth on my cheeks.“It looks great on her, Sir Aaron,” the serving lady remarked. “Although, we’ll have to make some alterations to the dress. It’s a tad too large for her.”“Really?” Aaron responded.I interjected, “Hmm, there’s no need to adjust it for my size. I don’t even plan on...”...wearing it. That’s what I wanted to say. However, Aaron interrupted me and suggested, “Then, let’s change the size. We might find a use for it in the future.”I have to despise the idea of marrying him again, but I couldn’t say anything in response.“I’ll go check the measurements. Could

But all of a sudden, I was told that Aaron wanted to hang out with me outside the castle. That’s how I found myself sitting in the back seat of the car, with Aaron sitting beside me. Sitting in the back seat, I looked outside the window of the car. The sight outside looked wide and free. “Don’t even think of escaping, Olive,” Aaron said. I turned my head to him and caught him looking at me. “I know what you’re thinking right now,” he murmured, staring at the same window I was looking before. “How wide and free it was outside my castle. However, I won’t let you go.” Suddenly, I felt his hand holding mine. “Just wait until I win the fight. Then, I will show you the whole world. For now, stay with me and me alone,” he whispered, intertwining his fingers around mine. Oddly, even when he clearly told me t

The force of the blow was so powerful that it left me momentarily disoriented. “What were you thinking?” my father shouted, his voice filled with anger and disappointment. I lowered my head, silently listening to his words. “Our ancestor vowed to stay loyal to Aaron’s bloodline! I protected our family by bowing my head under their family! Why do you have to do this? Why did you challenge Aaron for a duel?!” “You don’t have to worry, Father,” I said, wiping the blood that smeared on my lips. I looked at him and said, “I made an additional deal with Lycan Aaron. My sin is my sin alone. My family won’t be punished along with me. And…” But before I could finish my sentence, my father forcefully grabbed my collar and pulled me closer, cutting off my words. “You fool! Do you think I was only worried about our family?

The fear of one of them losing their life weighed heavily on my mind, making it impossible for me to find sleep. The following day, I felt incredibly unsettled and exhausted. I spent the entire day anxiously waiting for Aaron to return from work, desperately hoping that I could somehow persuade him otherwise. However, upon visiting his room, I discovered that he was nowhere to be found. “Are you looking for Lycan Aaron?” the head maid, who saw me leaving Aaron’s room, asked. “Yes, I was looking for him. Do you happen to know where he is?” I replied. “Lycan Aaron went to the training room of this castle.” “He’s already home? Since when?” “Almost three hours ago, Luna Olive.” He had been in the castle three hours ago, yet he didn’t make an effort to see me. ‘That means Aaron was avoiding me.’ Was it because he knew I wou
