Catherine's POV
"I'll call Patricia now to check on Noah and Hedwig." Blake was in a pickle, too. "Maybe you can tell them I'm on an urgent business trip. I'll go back and see them when I'm better," I put forward an idea. "Are we really going to lie to them?" Blake frowned. He seemed reluctant. "We keep telling them not to lie, but we can't set a good example." He looked serious. I couldn't help but laugh. My wound was torn by my sudden move, and I groaned with pain. Blake quickly came over and blamed, "You know you are injured, right? Why can't you learn to take care of yourself?" I looked up at his worried look, and I gently said, "I'm fine. Don't worry." "How can I not be worried? Do you know how much it hurts to see you like this? I'd rather it was me lying there." Blake would rather be injured than watch me like this. "Don't say that," I said angrily. "I don't want you to get hurt." Blake leaned over and kissed meBlake's POV "Gina came to the police because she didn't want to face the music. She is so cunning. Does she really think she's innocent?" I was furious. Gina dared to hurt Catherine! Gina was doomed. She needed to bear my wrath. "Blake, I'm sure there's more to it than that. Maybe it's just Gina's scheme." Catherine knew Gina the best. I knew Catherine was right. Perhaps, as Gina said in her confession, she was only complaining in front of Jack, and she didn't tell Jack to make a move on Catherine. Gina had made a smart move. I reached out and held Catherine's hand tightly. She had lost too much blood, and her hand was still very cold. I said firmly, "Don't worry. She put you through this. She might be able to escape from the punishment of the law, but she enraged the royal pack and she will suffer." "She is cunning. No matter what she says, don't buy it. Don't let her slide," Catherine said angrily. I was well aware that the car ac
Blake's POV I looked down at her and felt no pity for her. I knew Gina would stay true to her evil nature no matter what. "You have no idea how much I want to kill you since you made her suffer so much. But I won't let you die so easily." My voice echoed in the empty factory. "You'd better kill me. I don't want to live like this anymore. I hate to see you love her so much. It's driving me crazy." Gina swooped forward. I took a few steps back, not wanting her to touch me. It would make me sick. "You shouldn't have lied to me in the first place. You deserved it!" I was furious. Gina couldn't let go of being Lycan Luna. She thought she loved me a lot, but she didn't. "I know that I am greedy. But I do love you. King Blake, you are unreachable. Surely you don't know what it's like to be humble. Am I that despicable and cheap in your eyes? Catherine can give you babies, and I can do it too. Why is she the one you love? This is unfair. She gets everyth
Blake's POV "I wish I could grow up in the blink of an eye. So I could protect Mommy and stupid Hedwig," Noah said. I patted Noah on the shoulder with relief. "Don't worry. I'm sure you'll be a tough man in the future. We will protect them together!" "No! Daddy, you failed to protect Mommy. I don't trust you anymore!" Noah said. I didn't know what to say. Fortunately, we arrived at the hospital soon after. I took them out of the car and came to Catherine's ward. Catherine heard Noah and Hedwig's voices. She was excited to see them and hugged them. "Mommy, are you getting better? Stay away from those bad guys from now on. Don't let them hurt you again!" "Mommy, I am so scared. I miss you so much!" When Noah and Hedwig saw Catherine, they quickly told her about their concerns. Catherine crouched and held them tightly. "Noah, Hedwig, I miss you too!" Catherine choked. I was filled with joy, watching t
Catherine's POV I was very happy that Blake's good friends, Benjamin and Howard, visited me. After we chatted for a while, I felt a little tired, so they went to the corridor for small talk. Suddenly, I heard a noise outside the door, but I was not worried. Blake had six wolf guards stationed at the door of my ward. He wouldn't allow danger to come near me. I suddenly realized that the person speaking outside the door was Troy. He had a loud voice, and I could hear him in the ward. "Catherine is my adopted daughter. Why aren't we allowed to see her? I have something to ask her. Get out of our way!" Troy shouted. I thought for a few seconds and then went to open the door. "Catherine, finally! You wicked woman! Give us Gina back!" As soon as Elena saw me, she pounced at me. However, she was blocked by a guard. The guard turned to me and said, "I'm sorry, Lycan Luna. Did they wake you up? We will drag them down right away." Looking at
Catherine's POV "Melinda, stop making fun of me. Look at me. I'm started to worry about my face," I said, picking up a mirror next to me. I checked on the bruises on my face. They were almost healed and didn't leave scars. However, I could still see some marks if I looked closer. I touched my head, which was still wrapped in gauze. I sighed, "Though my injuries have recovered, I feel less confident. I don't know if I'm good enough for him now." Melinda comforted me gently, "Cathy, you worry too much. You're King Blake's mate. You are perfect in his eyes." "I don't think so." I covered my face with my hands. I said with frustration, "He has been taking care of me these days. I feel guilty. He has so much work to do, but he puts it aside just to look after me. That's why I am in such a hurry to leave the hospital." Melinda smiled, "Cathy, it proves that King Blake loves you. Why would he choose to stay with you every day if he didn't love yo
Catherine's POV Blake was stunned at Hedwig's words. He probably didn't expect Hedwig to pay so much attention to his emotions. When I looked at him, he avoided my eyes. "Who was it? Did something happen in the pack? Is the pack in trouble?" I thought his bad mood had something to do with that phone call. Blake shook his head and replied in a low voice, "No. Nothing happened. Don't listen to Hedwig. I'm fine." "Alright then. I guess Hedwig is making a big deal out of it." I chuckled. Blake looked up at me. I knew that I wasn't pretty since my head was still wrapped in gauze. Yet his look was filled with questions, as if he wanted answers from me. It made me worried. "There's something urgent in the pack. Get some rest at home." Blake walked in front of me. He tucked my hair behind my ear with his slender fingers. His voice was very gentle. "Just go ahead. I'll be fine." I knew that he had spent too much time taking car
Blake's POV In the living room, Patricia snorted when she saw Abigail. However, she did not hate Abigail as much as before. I was also sitting on the sofa. When I saw Abigail, I was a little stiff. "Patricia, I am sorry that we came so abruptly. Halsey and I were so worried when we heard Cathy had been in a car accident. We are glad that she's OK," Abigail said, ignoring Patricia's cold expression. "I will take good care of her. There's nothing to worry about," I said with a cold face. Abigail smiled and said nothing more. Then she opened her handbag and took something out. "Halsey and I are no longer together. Blake, I hope you and Cathy will be together," said Abigail with concern. Her words stunned Patricia and me. Patricia pushed up her glasses and saw the divorce paper in Abigail's hand. Patricia's expression softened. She had been trying to get Abigail to divorce Halsey. I turned to the door. I tried to suppress m
Catherine's POV Outside the hall, downstairs, I was talking to Halsey. I looked back at the brightly lit living room. I wanted to invite Halsey to go in and have a seat, but I was not Lycan Luna yet, and such a move would be inappropriate. Both Patricia and Blake disliked Halsey. Finally, I pointed to a chair not far away and said, "Halsey, let's sit over there and talk. I'll get you a cup of coffee. I'll be back soon!" Halsey nodded and walked over. I told a maid to get two cups of coffee for me. I came to Halsey and sat down. Though he was my father, we had never lived together, so we were never close. The atmosphere was a bit dull. "Halsey, how did you know about my accident?" I asked curiously. I asked Blake to keep my accident a secret because I didn't want others to know. However, Halsey still knew about it. I felt bad that Halsey and Abigail had to travel such a long distance to visit me. "Elena called me. She c
Third Person's POVRichard said mysteriously, "Just wait and see. Someone will expose it.""Isn't it supposed to be made public?" Nick asked curiously."If it were made public, Emerson might just be so angry that he'd die," Richard glanced in the direction of Emerson.Nick nodded in agreement. "His condition does seem really serious. Dad, are you starting to care about Emerson?""I just don't want him to collapse so soon," a complex expression flickered across Richard's face.Nick let out a cold laugh. "I thought your hatred for him had already faded.""He gave me life, but at the same time, he subjected me to countless blows and torments. I don't even know whether to hate him or respect him," Richard snorted coldly.At that moment, the sound of flattery from the crowd outside the main door could be heard. Nick looked over and saw Blake and Catherine walking in, receiving everyone's congratulations.Since it was an engag
Third Person's POVThe morning sun shone brightly. After a month of continuous winter snow, the city finally welcomed such a sunny day.On this day, the entire city was buzzing with excitement over the Royal Pack's joyous occasion—Blake and Catherine's long-awaited engagement was finally coming to fruition.The news had the city abuzz with anticipation, as everyone eagerly awaited photos or videos from the engagement party, curious to see just how luxurious and dazzling a high-society event could be.In reality, Blake had prepared for the engagement party somewhat hastily. In his eyes, many aspects were far from perfect, but he had done his utmost to make everything as good as it could be.Emerson was particularly delighted and felt a deep sense of relief, knowing that he would witness his grandson's engagement in his lifetime, leaving him with no regrets.Abigail attended Catherine's engagement party, but Halsey was unable to make it
Third Person's POVBlake, too, wished they could keep kissing forever. But he was also worried that he might make it hard for her to breathe.Catherine's pretty face flushed with pink. Blake reluctantly let her go."I'm going to take a shower. Wait for me!" Blake had a knack for easily unsettling her. Just that one word, "wait for me," seemed to encompass all the sweet nothings.Catherine's heart fluttered slightly as she watched his figure disappear into the bathroom. She suddenly felt the bedroom was empty and didn't know what to do next.At that moment, her phone rang, signaling a new message.Catherine walked over and saw that the message was from Harley. She was taken aback for a moment but still picked up her phone to check it."Catherine, congratulations!" The message was simple, yet it was filled with his affection for her.Catherine understood the weight behind those few words and sighed softly.She remembered H
Third Person's POV"Mirabel, I have to ask, these two men, you didn't hire them, did you?" the assistant asked nervously.Mirabel's face froze for a second, and she turned her head to glare at the assistant fiercely. "Don't talk nonsense. This has nothing to do with me!"The assistant shrank back, quickly forcing a smile. "Good, I'm glad it's not related. Mirabel, I wonder who Sunny offended this time. It seems like there are quite a few people who want to get back at her."Mirabel narrowed her eyes, clenching her fists in anger. She thought to herself that since Sunny had escaped this time, she wouldn't be so lucky next time.In fact, these two thugs were indeed hired by Mirabel.She had originally planned to grab Sunny, humiliate her thoroughly, and make her feel unclean, so she would be too ashamed to pursue Leo anymore.But now, things had gone beyond her expectations.Sunny had good fighting skills and had fought against t
Third Person's POVA hint of embarrassment flickered across Sunny's face. Although she had courage and fighting skills, these didn't seem like things worth boasting about in front of the man she liked.What if Leo didn't like such a strong woman? Would he be put off by her?"Rest assured, I only fight bad guys. I would never raise a fist to you," Sunny said with a forced laugh.Leo, however, chuckled softly. "If one day I really become too much of a jerk, you'd have every right to teach me a lesson. I wouldn't have a word to say."Sunny just shook her head and remained silent. Of course, she could never bring herself to hit the man she liked."From this video, we can see the faces of those men. Don't worry, I will definitely catch these two jerks and get revenge for you," Leo said in a low voice, his tone firm."I just want to know why they were after me. Did I really offend someone at some point?" Sunny felt a vague sense of unease.
Third Person's POV"Take me to the hospital. I'm in pain." Sunny was at her breaking point, feeling like she was about to pass out from the agony.Without a word, Leo scooped her up into his arms and hurried towards the door."Close the door. I still have a lot of stuff inside." Sunny gritted her teeth and said.Leo, however, ignored her. "What's more important than your life?"Sunny could only watch helplessly as her front door remained wide open and the elevator doors swiftly closed.Leo held her tighter, noticing the cold sweat streaming down her forehead like a small river. It was then that he realized the extent of her suffering."Who did this? Who stabbed you?" Leo finally had a moment to ask her in a calm but forceful tone.Sunny shook her head. "I don't know. I don't recognize those people."Hearing her words, Leo's face turned ashen, nearly driving him to the brink of madness. She had been attacked by strangers.
Third Person's POVSunny returned home and, after a while of overthinking, decided to go out and buy something to eat.The news of her breakup with Leo had already faded a few days ago. Now, the engagement of Blake and Catherine had taken over the entire internet. The buzz around her had significantly diminished.Sunny put on a mask, went out without makeup, and wore a white woolen coat.She walked along the avenue outside her block, remembering a delicious cupcake shop she had visited before. She hadn't been there in a long time and was craving their food. Maybe her mood had improved, because she felt lighter on her feet, not as burdened as before.After all, Leo had proposed to her, and she was the one who had turned him down.Thinking of this, Sunny let out a quiet breath and felt a fleeting sense of triumph.But such thoughts were short-lived. In the world of love, there are no real winners. As long as one doesn't lose too badly,
Eda's POV"Eda, if only I had met you earlier, I would have always been by your side." Benjamin walked over to me, gently wrapped his arms around me. He held me tightly.I'm a very strong woman. I've hardly ever cried from childhood to now.But at this moment, for some reason, I felt like I needed protection. My heart was as fragile as glass, craving comfort."Yeah, why didn't you show up sooner?" I murmured with a smile, though my voice was a little choked up.Benjamin held me. His tenderness enveloped my heart.The things that scared me were indeed terrifying, but right now, his embrace made me feel safe.He said softly, "Eda, if you're scared, let's not do anything. If you don't want to get married, we'll just keep dating; if you don't want to have kids, we won't have any. I don't want you to face those things that scare you anymore."After hearing his words, I gently pushed him away, blinked my eyes, and asked in disbelief,
Eda's POVI stared at the beautifully designed wedding invitation on my desk. The minimalist yet elegant style exuded a casual and refined vibe.The off-white card was adorned with a light blue ribbon and featured the wedding details of Blake and Catherine in an exquisite font.Blake and Catherine were getting engaged. From the bottom of my heart, I was genuinely happy for them and sent my heartfelt congratulations.They had the courage to step into marriage and continue their sweet love story, which was truly enviable. But at least, I couldn't do it myself.I reached out and touched my still-flat stomach. Besides the occasional waves of nausea, I hardly felt any different. My body seemed to be functioning as usual."Ugh, this is so annoying!" I propped my head up with my hand and fiddled with my bangs, too agitated to focus on work.I felt like I was going through the worst phase of my life."Turns out, enjoying happiness come
