Elias seemed to understand what I was thinking. Even though he didn't look at me, he still spoke to reassure me. "Don't think about those things anymore; we are too tiny to want to change something. Essentially, Lorne and I are the same. For one purpose, we can sacrifice everything else that stands in the way to achieve the ultimate goal. Everything in life is arranged; in this world, the rule of big fish eating small fish is also a common occurrence. Don't worry about it anymore."I sighed; what Elias said was accurate, and I couldn't help but feel sorry for them. I was also in that situation when I was arrested; I remember how scared and worried I was. And when I was on stage having those men look up and down, then being picked apart like a commodity, how desperate I was."Don't overthink." Elias reached over and patted my head.I looked at him and, half a day later, reluctantly nodded.Just like that, we didn't say anything more after that. Everyone was lost in their thoughts. I lo
I discovered that since returning, I have become sluggish; I often absent-mindedly fall asleep no matter where I am. The most embarrassing thing was when I was sitting on Elias's lap in the study room. While he was busy working, I fell asleep. He still had to carry me to my room when it was over.I woke up today, and Elias left the house early. Recently, military training has been very stressful; he often leaves very early and comes back late at night, and by that time, I am already sound asleep. It's been over a week, I haven't seen him, I miss him so much.I sighed, still engrossed in my thoughts, when suddenly, in front of the yard, appeared a white sports car. I was still curious about who it was when a girl got out of the vehicle. She wore an athletic tracksuit, and her hair was tied up, perfectly matching the car behind her.Due to being shaded by the sun, I couldn't see her face clearly, but when she got closer, I realized it was Aliyah. I don't hate her, but I wouldn't say I l
Aliyah led me to an area similar to a gymnasium, where several groups were also divided up to practice. They don't seem to care about their surroundings, just focus on their world. Seeing them practice enthusiastically, I also feel excited. In the distance, I see some kids only about ten years old also participating in training. Their movements are graceful and agile, like a squirrel.I looked at them blankly. It wasn't until Aliyah grabbed my collar and pulled me away that I was startled.Aliyah pointed me to a board with clearly written rules of competition. I frowned, not understanding what Aliyah meant, but when I turned my head and saw Aliyah raising her eyebrows, I suddenly felt scared."Could you want me to participate in this contest?" I'm scared.Aliyah nodded, her eyes unwavering. "It's considered a maturity contest for werewolves in Blood Moon; if you pass this contest, you're already a warrior. However, your journey seems much farther than other people practicing out there
I carefully set the alarm and then went to bed.The following day, the loud ringing of the bell startled me, and I was just about to get up when I discovered an arm was resting on my waist. The sound of the bell also alarmed Elias, and he frowned; his eyes did not open, but he still clutched my waist like a big childish boy.Elias's husky, lazy voice resounded. "What are you doing with your alarm set so early? Why don't you get some more sleep?"Elias's presence surprised me. I haven't seen his face for many days, let alone cuddled and slept all night. This warm feeling makes me not want to get out of bed, and I want to crawl into his arms. But remembering Aliyah's fiery eyes, I immediately pushed that thought out of my head, and she would tear me to pieces if I did."Isn't it because of you? You have arranged for Aliyah to train me; why not inform me?" I puffed my cheeks; I've wanted to ask this question for a long time but never had the chance.Elias lazily opened one eye at me; his
When the car stopped, I felt a strange air rush from the house. A hunch told me something terrible was coming, and a dark figure appeared before me. I panicked a bit when I looked into Elias's deep eyes, like a criminal running away who was caught by the police.I was frantic; the movement to open the door was also unnatural.While I was thinking about explaining to Elias why I was injured, Aliyah's monotone voice rang out calmly. "I called Alpha to talk about everything, and he seemed very angry."I turned to look at her in surprise, unable to speak. "When? I don't see you using the phone.""Idiot, we can communicate through our minds. If you don't know such a basic thing, how do you make our Luna?" Aliyah sighed in disdain, and then she unlocked the car, went out, and greeted Elias.I saw his face darken when looking at the position I was sitting in. Perhaps due to insecurity, I was confused and quickly lowered my face to hide my emotions. Not long after that, Aliayh returned to the
While drying my hair, I suddenly heard a crashing sound in the living room, like a glass was dropped. I felt worried, so I got up and saw what was happening. I was startled by the scene before my eyes. For some reason, the fruit plate on the table was now shattered on the floor. I couldn't imagine someone as arrogant as Helen kneeling on the ground. Her eyes widened, filled with anger and disobedience, but she did not dare to disobey her father's orders. However, her resistance made me shiver a bit. I didn't think a young girl would have eyes like that. It was full of murderous intent and seemed to have a fire that wanted to burn the other person. I was so focused on Helen that I didn't notice Elias looking at me. He had discovered me since I appeared, and instead of exposing me, he just spoke softly. "Does that noise bother you?" As soon as he asked, Gamma and Helen's eyes turned towards me. I suddenly stepped back; somehow, I felt like I had just committed a crime and had just bee
Elias POV:Suddenly, the cup of coffee in my hand fell, the glass shattered on impact, and the coffee droplets splashed and clung to my white shirt. An uneasy premonition arose strongly in my heart, and my chest tightened.Marcus was still reporting the recent war, but I heard nothing. My ears kept ringing as if there was a hand covering them."Alpha…" Marcus seemed surprised at my blank face. He quickly brought a tissue to wipe the stains on my hands.When Marcus touched me, I was startled to wake up a bit."Alpha, your condition today is not very good," Marcus said worriedly.I pondered, took the tissue from his hand, quickly wiped the stain on my shirt, and threw it in the trash. For some reason, I've been in a bad mood since the morning. I think it's related to what Marcus reported earlier. At the same time, I also thought about Serena; I suddenly felt uneasy without understanding the reason.I have marked her; I will feel her pain and also know when she is in danger. I know she's
Serena POV:Once again, I woke up. I don't know how long I've been here, and I can't tell whether it's day or night. I just knew I was in a dark and damp cellar. This place feels utterly isolated from the outside world, and I don't feel any life around me.The memories of the last few days in my mind are only being tortured and humiliated with vulgar words. Helen kidnapped me here while I was on my way to the hospital. I could have informed Elias based on our connection, but everything happened so fast that I didn't have time to react. I was knocked unconscious by her, and when I woke up, I was here.Helen was utterly crazy, and she believed that all her misfortunes came from me, that I had taken everything from her.I closed my eyes, tears rolling down my cheeks. I don't know how long this terrible thing will go on, and I feel hopeless when it's been days, and Elias still hasn't found me. Something must have stopped him, and perhaps when he saw me, I was a corpse.In the endless dark
"Mommy!" The young, clear voice fell into my ears, and Sophia jumped into my arms when I turned around. "I miss you so much, mom."I kissed her cheek and smiled brightly. "I miss you too; the older you get, the more beautiful you become."Sophia cooed against my chest, something my little girl would never do. Sophia's actions made my heart filled with sweetness.Not long after, a soft hand touched my thigh. Fiona raised her indifferent eyes to look at me. "Mom, I have something to tell Sophia."I opened my mouth at the words my daughter had just uttered. It's not like a five-year-old child; on the contrary, it is like an adult.After I dropped Sophia off, Fiona pulled her away from my helplessness.As for Alan, it was like meeting a soulmate after meeting Drake. They had many similar interests. I was afraid their chemistry and harmony were better than his two fathers.As I got closer, I heard their conversation."In the future, I will become the strongest Alpha; I will fly everywhere
Serena POV:Five years later.Time passes by like a dream. Just then, Fiona had grown up and was as tall as my waist. The older Fiona gets, the more she shows the same personality as her father. She usually doesn't talk much and is often thoughtful like an adult.Elias didn't seem very pleased; he wished his daughter could be as happy as the children with me, and he often complained to me that I was wrong in wanting our daughter like him. But that's what Elias thinks; until now, I'm still delighted with Fiona. Maybe it's because I'm so crazy about Elias; I feel it's good for Fiona to resemble him.After Fiona was two years old, I became pregnant again and gave birth to a son. I always felt that Alan was returning to us for some reason, so I called him Alan. My son also inherited his father's outstanding height. At just two years old, he reached the peak of my thigh.The miraculous thing is that Alan also looks precisely like Elias, even more like Fiona, and sometimes when I look at Al
Elias POV:I gently looked at Serena's sleeping face and felt like I was the happiest man in the world. I held her hand, bent down, and kissed her gently on the forehead. Serena stirred a little, but she was too tired to wake up.I helped her adjust her position to a comfortable position, unable to contain my joy, as I placed my ear on her big round belly. In just one month, our daughter will be born. I eagerly waited for that day and thought of thousands of names to match my treasure. But no matter what I think, I don't see any name worthy of my daughter.I still clearly remember the happiness when Serena told me she was pregnant. I couldn't imagine the joy at that moment; the emotions that burst into my heart made me want to go crazy. But I had to suppress it and just smile.Because I was haunted by my lost child and Serena's days in hell, I began to fear this and that. So I wrapped her in my arms, not daring to momentarily take my eyes off her.And when I found out Serena was havin
Two months passed quickly, and the reconstruction of Blood Moon was half completed. Usually, when I have free time, I work at the hospital, which makes me comfortable and almost without thinking during the day. It was already dark when I finished my work and raised my head."Serena, have you had lunch yet?" Lily poked her head over to ask me, holding a paper bag. "If not, you can eat with me, and I bought some delicious fried chicken thighs."I laughed and felt hunger coming. "Then I won't be polite."Lily placed the bag of chicken on the table, and seeing its eye-catching color made my stomach growl. But when I picked up the chicken leg, my previous craving immediately disappeared, replaced by a wave of nausea that made my head spin.I immediately rushed to the bathroom and vomited into the toilet; I felt like all my internal organs wanted to fly out.Lily was worried, so she ran after me. She turned pale, grabbed me, and kept asking. "What happened to you? Do you feel unwell inside?
Elias and I went to find Logan and Sona early in the morning. And I think it was a lousy visit because we ruined a wonderful moment for the young couple.Logan looked at us with undisguised hatred. "Alpha and Luna know how to choose when to visit their friends."I was shy, but Elias casually shrugged his shoulders. "We also don't think Alpha Logan's health is so good that it doesn't matter whether it's day or night."I almost spit out water because of what Elias said. Could it be that he doesn't feel tickled when talking about this issue? Yesterday, we also had a long day when the sun had not yet set.Why isn't Alpha Elias like that? Or are you too weak? Do you need me to teach you a few lessons?The appearance of Sona with their little daughter made the atmosphere less awkward. Sona smiled at me, then whispered to Sophia, who was holding her in her arms. "Those are the foster parents I told you about; come say hello to them."Sophia is such a lovely girl that I can't take my eyes off
Serena POV:Sona couldn't contain her emotions when she saw me, and she hugged me tenderly. Sona's eyes are unlike the others, and I don't know any strangeness in her."It must be excruciating." Sona looked painfully at the scars on her lips. "But don't worry, I specially made this medicine for you; it has the ability to heal all scars."I looked at the small medicine bottle in Sona's palm, slightly upset. "But this scar has been there for a long time. Will the medicine be effective now?"Sona smiled. "You doubt me? You don't believe in my abilities?"I shook my head; I knew Sona's abilities. She is an excellent doctor; it wouldn't be too much if I thought she was a genius."Apply twice daily for about a week, and you will see results." Sona put down the medicine bottle, then looked up at the tightly pulled curtains. "You wouldn't mind if I pulled it out?"I was silent for a moment, then nodded. After the curtain hung, the harsh light shone into my eyes, making me feel a bit uncomfort
Elias POV:"Alpha, you should rest more. Your injury is more serious than it appears; you should not rely on your health." Marcus grumbled next to me as I insisted on seeing data related to the battle.I tiredly rubbed my forehead and looked at him with warning eyes. "You talk a lot like a mother nagging her children. Will you stop?"Marcus pursed his lips and sighed. "If I were your mother, I wouldn't want you to ruin your health like that."Marcus's words made my hand freeze, impacting my heart strongly. If my mother were still alive, I would ask myself countless times in childhood, but no one could answer me. And then, I don't know when; I no longer remember that question. I gradually accepted the cruel truth: my mother would never return. Growing up is the most brutal experience.I folded up the documents and put them aside. Marcus saw that his words had an effect and immediately said happily. "You should have done that early."I glanced at him, said nothing, and went straight to
A loud bang rang out shortly after I slept, startling me from my dream. I sat up, and by inertia, I held Elias's hand tightly. After confirming he was okay, I calmed down. We looked at each other, and Elias's puzzled look confused me."Could it be that they have come again?" I trembled; our condition was not suitable for fighting anymore. "How now? Why did they come so quickly?"Elias stroked my hair; his calm and composed attitude made me feel strange. Elias was the first to react every time they came, but he didn't show any emotion this time. Could it be that yesterday's fever caused him mental problems?"Do you know that if someone else looked at me with such judgmental eyes, she would die?" Elias glanced at me, a faint smile appearing on his lips. "Someone is coming."I frowned; I knew that, but why not quickly run away?"I will help you hide on that rock; we can't fight right now," I say.Elias stood up thanks to my arm but didn't rush to run away; he conveniently grabbed my hand
One day and one night later, Elias still hadn't woken up, which made me restless.'His fever has gone down, his wound is fine, but why hasn't he woken up?' I told Mei I needed someone to give me advice right now.Mei remained silent for more than half a day before responding to me in a passive voice. 'Do not worry. He needs a long sleep to restore his health.'I told myself that Mei was right. My stomach growled with hunger; I rubbed my flat belly and groaned. Many days, we didn't have anything to put in our stomachs. Remembering this shocked me; could Elias be so hungry that he couldn't wake up?That thought made me unable to sit still anymore. I walked around looking for something to eat and suddenly remembered the other soldiers had brought a few pieces of bread. Even though it's a bit hard, having something to eat in this situation is good.I dipped the bread in water to soften it, then put small pieces into Elias's mouth. But it didn't work, and he couldn't swallow. I had to be m
