*Amelia* "You are joking, right?" Adrian asked me, his tone filled with disbelief, as I threatened to divorce him if he forced me to give my blood to Mara, his ex-mate, who had accused me of stabbing her. "As much as I'd like to say I'm joking, unfortunately, I am not. It's either her or me. The choice is yours," I said firmly. Adrian stared at me for what felt like an eternity, his eyes narrowing before his lips curled into a sarcastic smile. "You think I don't know what you're doing? You're trying to blackmail me with a divorce. Well, let me make it clear—it won’t work on me," he snapped, his tone cold and unyielding. "You stabbed someone. And no matter your position in this pack, you're supposed to face the consequences. But here I am, sparing you from punishment by asking you to give her your blood so she can survive. Yet, you’re still being stubborn. Do you think I can’t punish you?" Adrian's voice grew angrier. A sad smile tugged at my lips as I looked at him. "Adrian,
*Five Years Later* **Amelia** The hum of New York City traffic filled the air as I drove along the bustling streets, heading to the university where I had spent the past five years pouring my heart into my studies. Today marked a monumental milestone—I was graduating as a medical doctor. It had taken relentless effort and commitment, but I had finally made it. After escaping the Moonstone Pack five years ago, I’d used my savings—hard-earned from my time as Luna—to pursue my lifelong dream of becoming a doctor. This was a dream I’d once abandoned when Adrian chose me as his Luna, demanding my focus and sacrifice for the Pack. But none of it had mattered to him in the end. He cheated on me, discarded me for his ex-mate, and left me broken. Still, in that heartbreak, I found my freedom and reclaimed my dream. My hands gripped the steering wheel tightly as I navigated through the congested traffic, the weight of the day sinking in. This wasn’t just any graduation—it was a turni
**Amelia** Despite my request for him to reject me, his face betrayed no sign of anger. Instead, his calm expression suggested this was exactly what he had hoped for. A pang of hurt shot through my chest as he agreed so readily, without hesitation. I stood there, waiting for him to utter the words I feared. But instead, he reached out and gently stroked my cheek. The instant his fingers touched my skin, I stiffened. *So this is how the mate bond works,* I thought, feeling the intense pull of his presence, his scent overwhelming me. "So you really want me to reject you?" His voice was teasing, and I felt the space between us close as he took a step closer, lowering his head toward my cheek as if he was about to kiss me. I should’ve stopped him. I should’ve pushed him away, but I couldn’t. My heart hammered in my chest, and my body betrayed me, standing still, allowing him to do whatever he wanted. "You really smile well, mate," he murmured, his face inches from mine. Then, hi
**Amelia** Even though I had agreed to follow Dr. Alex Darlington, who was now my mate back home because of the party he organized, deep down I knew I wasn't going to follow him; I had only accepted in order to get him off my back. After collecting my certificate, I bade goodbye to Becky, who was busy discussing with some of her friends and taking selfies with them, and with that, I started heading to the exit while praying deep down that I wouldn't encounter Dr. Alex Darlington again because all I wanted to do was to go home and get some rest and to also think about what I was going to do next, whether to stick with Dr. Alex Darlington, who was now my mate, or whether to do to him the same thing I did with Adrian, which was escaping and going to somewhere very far where he would never find me. With these thoughts running through my mind, I walked out of the school and made my way to the parking lot, but immediately I got to the parking lot, I halted in my steps as I saw the last
*Amelia* "Tricksy, are you seeing what I'm seeing?" I asked my wolf with a trembling tone while staring at the image right in front of me. "Yes, of course, I'm seeing it; after all, I'm not blind," she said to me with a rude tone. "Tricksy your tone," I said to her with a displeased tone. "Sorry, ma'am," she said to me with a sarcastic tone, causing me to roll my eyes angrily as if she were just right in front of me. "Tell me, Tricksy, do you think that Dr. Darlington and Adrian are related?" I asked her with a frightened tone. "Well, I don't know, but I would really be happy if both of them are related. Can you imagine the look on Adrian's face when he discovers that you are mated to someone related to him?" Tricksy said to me with a devilish tone. "Tricksy, this isn't funny, and for your information, I'm not planning to ever meet up with Adrian again, and if it happens that Dr. Alex Darlington is related to Adrian, then today will be the last day that he would be setting his
*Amelia*"Hey, take your filthy hands off my man," I growled angrily at her, not realizing how loud my voice was, and with that, the whole hall went mute immediately as everyone turned their attention towards me…__________________________________Seeing how everyone was looking at me like someone who had grown horns, the reality of what I had just done dawned on me.I had just announced to everyone that Dr. Alex Darlington was my man even without realizing it.Dr. Alex Darlington, on the other hand, was busy grinning ear to ear like a father who was proud of something his child had just done.Unable to withstand the gaze of the onlookers, I immediately rushed out of the hall and started heading to the exit without even looking back.With everything that had happened lately, it was already clear to me that the day wasn't going to get any better; instead, it was going to get worse and worse, and the only way to prevent something bad from happening again was by doing what I should have
It was an hour ride from Moonstone Pack to Crestwood Pack, where the ball was going to take place. As the car pulled over in the parking lot, another car in which Adrian's guards were also pulled over, and with that four armed guards made their way out, and without hesitating two of the guards rushed towards Adrian's car and opened it so that Adrian and Mara could come down. As Adrian and Mara were making their way out of the car, another car also pulled over, followed by two other cars from which five different guards in black suits made their way and without hesitating, they rushed towards the first car and prostrated their heads in respect as the car pulled open, revealing the man whom Adrian detested the most Alpha Derek, accompanied by a beautiful lady who was no one else than his mate. Immediately Mara saw him; she immediately grasped Adrian's hand as if she was scared of being hurt by the man who had just emerged out of the car. Turning his gaze towards Adrian and Mara, a
As the ball was going on, Mara excused herself as she wanted to make use of the bathroom.As she was heading to the bathroom, she felt someone take her hand from behind, and before she could react, she was pulled towards one of the men's bathrooms, and immediately the door closed behind."Dave, what the hell is wrong with you? What if someone had seen you...?" Mara tried screaming at Dave but everything she wanted to say got stuck in her throat as Dave claimed her lips in a passionate kiss.At first she was hesitant, but just in a twinkle of an eye she too got lost in the kiss, and from the view of things, it was as if she was even the one dominating in the makeout as both of them were busy kissing passionately like two lovers who had been far away from each other for a very long time.After what seemed like forever, they finally disengaged from the kiss as they tried to catch their breaths."And here I was thinking that you didn't miss me at all," Dave said to Mara while catching his
It has been over a week since the event of Adrian discovering Mara's infidelity took place, and unlike the first week after the event took place, Adrian was no longer feeling downcast; he had even started assuming all his responsibilities as the Alpha just as before, giving Jake enough time to focus on finding Dave, Mara, and the former Luna Amelia.Meanwhile, Adrian was in his office going through some Pack-related documents when his office suddenly started ringing.Sighing heavily, he dropped the document he was going through before taking his phone to check who was calling.On seeing the caller ID, he furrowed his brows in surprise, and just in the twinkle of an eye, his surprised facial expression was replaced with an angry facial expression.After some minutes of hesitation, he finally picked up the call and placed the phone to his ear."Hello," he muttered after picking up the call, anger evident in his tone."Hello, big bro, how are you doing? It's really been a while." Alex's
After dropping off Erica at her house, I couldn't help but think about what she told me as I was driving back home.Even without her telling me, I have already known that sooner or later Alex was going to find out that I was formerly his stepbrother's mate, and just as Erica said, he is going to be angry when he finds out, which I also know, but before he finds out, I would have already informed him about it, but that still doesn't mean that I'm going to accept to follow him to his pack. Who knows what Adrian will do to me when he sets his eyes on me?As these thoughts were running through my mind, I spotted a car parked in front of my house as I was getting closer, and leaning on the car was someone who looked like Alex.At first I didn't want to believe that it was him since I couldn't see his face, and also the car was different from the one I always saw him driving, but when I got closer and the person leaning on the car turned around, that was when it became clear to me that it w
*Amelia*"Is there any other patient I have to check on?" I asked the assistant nurse who was following me from behind as I made my way out of one of the hospital wards."No, ma'am, this is the last one," she said to me, and I nodded."Okay, then, if there's anything else, just let me know," I said to her, and with that, she nodded in reply before walking away.Actually it was five thirty pm, and since I was about to start heading home, I had to check up on all the patients who were under my care and make sure that nothing was wrong with them. After checking up on all the patients, I returned to my new and first office and balanced on the chair as I tried to recover my strength a little bit before heading back home.Even though it was my first day as a certified doctor, I was exhausted as hell. Since all this while I have been working as an assistant, I have always thought that we, the assistants, were the ones doing all the hard work, but it was today that it became clear to me that
It was five pm in the evening. Alex had finished his daily activity at the hospital and was about to start heading back home.Getting into his car, he was about to ignite it on when his phone suddenly started ringing. Groaning in frustration, he took his briefcase and brought out his phone to check who was calling.Seeing that it was Jake, he ignited his car and connected the phone to the car's Bluetooth before picking up the call."Hi Jake, How are you doing?" Alex asked after picking up the call."I'm good, Your Highness. What about you?" Jake asked Alex."I'm good. Any good news?" Alex asked him while driving out of the hospital."Well, there's a news, but I won't call it good news," Jake said to Alex through the phone."Well, if the news isn't good, then it's bad. Go on, I'm all ears," Alex said to him with his attention still fixed on the road as he was driving the car."Well, his Highness is insisting that I track down his former Luna, and he's even threatening to find someone
Adrian was in his office as usual, lost in his thoughts. Since he discovered Mara's infidelity and Diego not being his son, he hasn't been himself; he doesn't even assume his responsibilities as the Alpha of the Pack, which he never fails to do. Jake has been the one taking care of everything, even meeting up with some of the Pack members who wanted to see the Alpha about some urgent issues.Remembering how he had mistreated Amelia until she ran away from the Pack five years ago, Adrian couldn't help but beat himself in grief. He still couldn't bring himself to believe that since all this while he had made no attempt to search for her, it was as if he was waking up from a deep slumber that was probably caused by his stupid love for Mara.Knowing how good Jake was at tracking people down, he knew that finding her wasn't going to be an issue, so he wasn't worried about that. What he was worried about was whether she was ever going to find it in her heart to forgive him and whether she
Alex could clearly see the shock and fear written on Amelia's face as he made mention of taking her to his pack. For someone who grew up in the human world, she was supposed to be excited and eager to go to a werewolf pack, but from the view of things, it was clear that she wasn't interested, and from the way she refused without even giving it a thought, he could already tell that she wasn't just uninterested, but she was afraid of something."Amelia, what's wrong? Don't you want to follow me to my pack?" Alex asked her with a furrowed brow as he took a step backward to take a proper look at her face."No, Alex, it's not that I don't want to follow you to your pack; I would really love to, but I don't think that this is the right time, and mind you that I just graduated. Right now, the only thing I want to do is concentrate on doing what I have spent almost five years learning how to do, which is curing people," Amelia said to Alex, who was staring at her with a doubtful glare."Are y
*Amelia*It was a thirty-minute ride from the hospital where I have been working to Darlington Hospital.Getting to the hospital, I couldn't help but admire how huge it was right from outside. It was one of the biggest hospitals in the whole city, and I don't think there's another hospital in the city that is as big as this one, not any that I have seen.Getting into the hospital, I made my way to the receptionist, who was busy manipulating the computer right in front of her."Good morning," I greeted her with a warm smile."Good morning, Mrs. How can I help you?" The receptionist asked me."I want to see Dr. Alex Darlington," I said to her and immediately she furrowed her brows at me."Do you have any appointment with him?" She asked me, and I nodded in reply."Your name, please?" She asked me, and with that I gave her my name, and without hesitating she typed it on her computer, and after some minutes she lifted her head and looked at me with a warm smile hovering over her face."So
It was eight thirty AM in the human world. Alex was in his office at the hospital going through some reports when his phone suddenly started ringing.Sighing heavily, he took the phone to check the caller ID. Seeing who was calling, he immediately picked up the call and placed the phone to his ear."Good morning, Your Highness," Jake's voice sounded through the phone, and with that, Alex frowned deeply."Jake, why haven't you been picking up my call?" Alex asked him without replying to his greetings."I'm sorry, Your Highness, there have been many issues going on in the Pack lately,' Jake said to Alex, who furrowed his brow while wondering what he was talking about."What issues?" Alex asked Jake through the phone."His Highness has found out about his mate's infidelity," Jake said to Alex."What!" Alex exclaimed in surprise."How the hell did he find out?" Alex asked Jake with a surprised tone."Diego got into an accident and lost a lot of blood, and when he was brought to the hospit
*Amelia* It was another sunny and busy day in the human world.After yesterday's graduation, it was finally time to resume work at the hospital where I worked part-time while schooling. I have been absent for the past two days because of the graduation, but now that it is finally over, I have no other choice but to return to work, and since I have already graduated, I can now start working full-time and at the same time be looking for another hospital that will employ me as a medical doctor, which I am now, and when that happens, I won't have to be working as a nursing assistant anymore but like a medical doctor like Dr. Alex Darlington, and maybe if I work hard, I might even become as famous as he is."So you want to become a famous medical doctor just like our mate? Wow, that would be so romantic," Tricksy squealed happily through our mind link, and with that I rolled my eyes as if she was right in front of me."Tricksy, you know very well that I haven't accepted Dr. Alex Darlingto
