The afternoon approached slowly, and Aaron still hadn't returned. Ailee began to feel uneasy, but she tried to distract her mind with other things. After making sure her children were okay, she picked up her newly charged cell phone and immediately dialed Mrs. Lyana."Hello, Ailee?!" Mrs. Lyana's panicked voice rang out as soon as the call was connected. "Where have you been? I was so worried! I've been trying to reach you since last night!"Ailee smiled faintly, feeling a little guilty for worrying the woman. "Sorry, my cell phone has been dead since yesterday. I can only call you now. The kids are already with me, they're fine."On the other side of the phone, Mrs. Lyana breathed a sigh of relief. "Thank goodness... I almost thought something bad happened to you guys. Where are you now? Are you safe?"Ailee glanced around the house, seeing Lowly and Lucille playing in the living room while Loudy was still resting. Mrs. Lia was in the kitchen, busy with her own business. "We're in a
The feeling of fear gnawing at Ailee's body, the girl had not even looked back anymore and continued to run through the deserted narrow alley, ignoring the gravel that occasionally hurt her bare feet or the night wind that greeted her porcelain skin.Ailee was really running with all her might, not caring about her weakened limbs, her messy dress, and the soles of her feet that were starting to get sore."Damn bitch!" The shout of the man behind Ailee made the girl speed up her running even more while occasionally sobbing.On the other hand, in a place not far from the alley where Ailee was fleeing, a pale-skinned man was seen pointing a gun at the forehead of a man who was kneeling in fear before him."S-sir ... I'm ...."Unconcerned about the trembling voice of the man before him, the pale-skinned man had already pulled the trigger casually. Blood splatters began to stain the pale-skinned man's handsome face.The deafening sound of gunfire reached Ailee's sense of hearing, the girl
"You think that by begging like that, then everything is done?" Aaron stared intently at Ailee. The only expression of Aaron's that Ailee caught was the anger that radiated clearly from his cold eyes.Aaron's face came closer, the skin of his cheek almost touching Ailee's cheek. "I'm not that generous," Aaron whispered right in Ailee's ear.The next second, Aaron had already moved his face away from Ailee. Ailee felt like her heart was about to explode."I only touched your chin and head and you're already crying," Aaron teased, "what would happen if I touched your whole body?" he continued, his eyes wildly roaming Ailee's fragile body that was only covered by a knee-length baby blue dress with one of the shoulder straps torn and almost exposing her chest.The dress Ailee was wearing was the same dress that the girl Aaron saw at the club was wearing, the girl Aaron saw was part of the group of illegal businessmen who dared to play with him tonight. Yes, the bitch that was deliberately
"Zoe Ailee." Aaron carefully read the two words displayed on the tablet screen in front of him, under the name, Aaron could see a photo of the girl he slept with last night striking a sweet yet sexy pose at the same time with the cream dress she was wearing.Yes, Ailee was a singer under Gloss Entertainment, a fairly prominent entertainment agency in the country. Unfortunately, the name Zoe Ailee is not well known to many people, some people think that Ailee is an unsellable and unfamous singer.Aaron doesn't know, but the girl can look elegant but sometimes looks menacing too. Interesting."So her real name is Ailee Elysia," Aaron muttered softly, after he finished reading Ailee's bio that Edric presented.Edric, the tan—skinned man who was Aaron's confidant was already nodding in response. "Zoe is her stage name.""Are you sure she's not the girl who was with Daran Cam?" Aaron asked.Edric nodded. "She came to meet Simon, the CEO of Gloss Entertainment.""Isn't that the agency the g
Sunny was so frustrated. Ailee didn't even recognize the man who'd fucked her, and it was even more unbelievable when Ailee said that afterward she'd been in her room with foreign pajamas clinging to her body.But, seeing how messed up Ailee was made Sunny try to believe her."Alright, we'll take care of that damn man later, leave Leyna to me. But what about your dealings with Simon? You hurt his shoulder." Sunny reminded.Ailee looked down sadly. "He definitely won't renew my contract.""Hey! That's not what I meant. What if he sues you for injuring his shoulder?""I'll just have to testify that it was in self-defense because he tried to harass me," Ailee replied. It honestly didn't matter if she had to deal with Mr. Simon in court, since she was innocent, the only risk was that she would never set foot in showbiz again.Honestly, being a singer is Ailee's dream since childhood, as a girl who grew up in an orphanage, having a dream is a luxury for her, she has successfully entered th
"Her name is Tifanny Rhianna." Edric whispered in Aaron's ear as the two stared at a shoulder-length haired girl who was chatting with Mrs. Lia Louvin-Watcher in Aaron's pack as well as Aaron's foster mother in the human world.Aaron is currently at a meeting that contains important people from various well-known companies. This activity is routinely carried out, in addition to checking the development of rival companies, here they can also start connections with each other."Ah, it's Aaron." Edric and Aaron could hear Mrs. Louvin's voice saying to Tifanny while pointing at Aaron who was standing not far from them.Aaron did not show any expression, he just looked at the two beautiful women with a flat gaze. Without even being told, Aaron already knew that the woman with his adoptive mother was the woman who would become his mate.Tifanny smiled slightly as Mrs. Louvin brought her closer to Aaron. "This is Tifanny," Mrs. Louvin said, "well... this is Aaron," she continued.Tifanny's f
"This is impossible." Ailee kept muttering that phrase all the way home from the clinic. Don't think Sunny wasn't shocked, she was just as shocked as Ailee, but she had to keep a cool head, especially when she was driving like this. "We're lucky that the doctor is an acquaintance of mine and she's willing to keep your pregnancy a secret," Sunny muttered as she tried to focus on the road ahead. "Now tell me, who was that guy? Who's the jerk who got you pregnant?" she continued half-angrily. Ailee could only stare at the road through the window of the car beside her blankly, as if she didn't care about Sunny's nagging, her brain kept telling her that 'it's impossible', or 'there's no way I'm pregnant'. Ailee felt like she was still dreaming, if she could hope, she wanted to wake up from this nightmare soon. No pregnancy, no sleeping with Aaron, no attempted harassment from Mr. Simon, just her standing on stage and singing to the music and applause of the audience. "Ailee?!" Ailee ga
Perfect. The car Sunny was driving suddenly broke down and the sky suddenly rained, thunder could even be heard crashing against each other, on the day Ailee was confirmed pregnant. It really was the most perfect day to ruin her life."I called for a towing service, but none of the online taxis would take my order," Sunny said as he looked at Ailee who was silent and pale.Sunny couldn't help but feel sorry for Ailee, who would have thought that the man she knew so well on television was the man who had impregnated her friend?"Didn't you use contraceptives when you did it?" Sunny asked suddenly.But Ailee's gaze, which was like a sword ready to be drawn, made Sunny reflexively shake her head. "Okay, I'm not going to talk about it anymore," Sunny said as she refocused on her phone.Sunny searched for an online taxi service again, but no one wanted to take her order.At that moment, a thunderclap suddenly sounded, causing both Ailee and Sunny
The afternoon approached slowly, and Aaron still hadn't returned. Ailee began to feel uneasy, but she tried to distract her mind with other things. After making sure her children were okay, she picked up her newly charged cell phone and immediately dialed Mrs. Lyana."Hello, Ailee?!" Mrs. Lyana's panicked voice rang out as soon as the call was connected. "Where have you been? I was so worried! I've been trying to reach you since last night!"Ailee smiled faintly, feeling a little guilty for worrying the woman. "Sorry, my cell phone has been dead since yesterday. I can only call you now.

Where are you now? Are you safe?"Ailee glanced around the house, seeing Lowly and Lucille playing in the living room while Loudy was still resting. Mrs. Lia was in the kitchen, busy with her own business. "We're in a
Aaron knew that even if Madame Lia didn't like Ailee, she wouldn't leave her children stranded. That was enough to put him at ease a little.Aaron stood up, then walked towards his children. "I have to leave for a while. But I'll be back."Loudy just nodded slowly.Lowly didn't seem too concerned as he was still busy with his food.Lucille, however, looked at Aaron with sharp eyes. "You'll be back?"Aaron looked at her deeply. "Yes."Lucille looked like she wanted to say something, but she just kept quiet and looked down again.Aaron glanced at Ailee. "Take care of them."Ailee nodded. "Be careful."Without another word, Aaron turned and walked out of the house.His departure left a more awkward atmosphere at the dining table.Mrs. Lia finally opened her voice. "You guys can stay here until he returns."Her tone was not warm, but it was quite clear that she was not going to kick them out.Ailee nodded. "Thank you."Madame Lia did not reply. She simply picked up her cup again and sippe
Silence fell over the room after Lucille's question. Aaron remained silent, didn't answer right away, and his expression was hard to guess. It was as if the question was too heavy to simply answer with simple words.Ailee realized this situation. She knew Aaron wasn't entirely at fault, Ailee also felt she had a hand in keeping her children away from the outside world, beyond the fact that she wanted to hide her children from Aaron and about her children not being ordinary children. Ailee also knew that Lucille, although still young, was smart enough to understand if someone was lying or avoiding questions.So, before things got any more awkward, Ailee quickly diverted attention."Loudy, dear," she said gently, "how are you feeling now? Does your shoulder still hurt?"Loudy took her eyes off Aaron and looked at her mother. She blinked a few times before answering, "It still hurts... but not like before."Ailee smiled slightly, trying to calm her son. "That's because Madam Lia removed
Lucille was still confused. Her head, which had been heavy with fever, was now lighter, but her mind was full of questions that she couldn't understand.Since childhood, she, Loudy and Lowly had always been with their mother. They lived in a house near the lake, away from people, and were not allowed to meet anyone other than certain people allowed by Ailee. He had never thought that there was anything wrong with that-until now.As she recalled the events that had just happened, her heart ached a little. The people who kidnapped them had named the man-the man now standing nearby-as their father.Lucille stared at Aaron wordlessly for a while. She tried to remember the first time she saw this man. There was something vague in her memory, but she was sure she had seen him before.Then, slowly, she remembered.She had seen this man at Madame Lyana's orphanage. Back then, she had only glimpsed his figure, standing outside the fence. She didn't know who he was, but at that time she felt th
Ailee sat on the chair beside the bed, her fingers continuing to clasp the small hand of Loudy who was still asleep. The boy's breathing sounded regular, but his face was still pale. Occasionally, Ailee gently stroked her son's hair, trying to calm herself down.In the corner of the room, Lowly was also still asleep. Edric sat beside him, watching with a vigilant gaze. Although his face remained calm, Ailee knew that Aaron's Beta was just as worried.Meanwhile, Lucille was lying on the sofa with her face slightly flushed from her fever. Mrs. Lia Lauvin had given her a febrifuge, and now the child was getting restless in her sleep.Ailee wanted to stay here, wanted to make sure that her children were okay, but something was bothering her-Aaron and Madame Lia were talking in the other room, and Ailee could feel the tension between them, even from afar.***In a smaller room in the house, Aaron stood tall, looking at Mrs. Lia Lauvin with a cold expression. The middle-aged woman sat in he
"But you didn't think I came unprepared, did you?"Suddenly, there was the sound of movement from outside the room. Within seconds, more of Daran Cam's men entered, surrounding them. The number had almost doubled from before.Ailee bit her lip. The situation was getting dangerous."Aaron," she whispered.Aaron glanced back at her, then refocused on Daran. "If you want war, I'm ready," he said coldly.Daran smiled, but his gaze was filled with menace. "I'm sure you're ready, but what about them?"He glanced at the triplets.Aaron clenched his fists. He knew Daran Cam was trying to provoke his emotions, but this time it was his children's lives at stake.Aaron stood tall, his body tense as his primal instincts kicked in. He could feel the vibrations of the wolf inside him, churning in impatience.Then, something hit him like a hurricane-a pain that didn't come from himself.Blood. Wounds.One of his children was hurt.Aaron blinked, his jaw hardening as he felt the bond of blood that ex
A few moments ago before Ailee and Aaron's arrival ....Loudy didn't understand what had just happened. Her chest was rising and falling rapidly, her small body felt hot and her head felt heavy. Every nerve in her body was burning, her muscles were tense and something inside her seemed to be trying to get out.He felt... angry.Lucille and Lowly were still wide-eyed staring at her, unable to believe what they were seeing. Loudy's body was no longer the small human body as before.His fur was white, her bright brown eyes flashed with a sharp light, and her fangs protruded from her now-longer snout. Her small claws dug into the wooden floor, leaving scratch marks."Lo... Loudy?" Lucille's voice sounded shaky.Lowly himself was silent, not knowing how to react. Although he remembered that Lucille had once turned into a wolf and there was a possibility that she too could change but still the scene before him was not something familiar to him.Loudy could no longer hear her siblings' voice
Aaron stared at his cell phone screen, the unknown number still displayed there. Aaron's heart was racing. The blood in his head was boiling. Someone was messing with him. But more than that, this caller knew; he knew that the children were his.Edric, who had just returned from checking the crime scene, the place where the triplets were last seen before disappearing, was already staring at Aaron, while Aaron immediately ordered Edric to start tracking the number of the disconnected call just now. Edric nodded and immediately ordered his men on the phone. Meanwhile, he tried to stay calm and called back the number just now."What do you want?" Without further ado, Aaron immediately asked when the call was reconnected.A chuckle sounded from the other side. "Not something that's hard to guess, Aaron. I just want to make sure you lose everything. Including your flesh and blood."Aaron clenched his fists. "If you dare to touch them...""Of course I dare. As proof, I already did." The man
The room was dark, illuminated only by the dim light of the flickering chandelier. The triplets sat in the corner, their bodies trembling with both fear and confusion. They knew, except for Lucille, that they were different from other children-they were children with wolf blood. But how could they control that power?"We have to get out of here," Loudy whispered determinedly."But how?" asked Lowly, his eyes wide with fear.Loudy bit her lip, turning to Lucille who sat silently with a pale face. "Lucille... you've turned into a wolf before, right?"Lucille was confused by Loudy's question, but she shook her head quickly. "I... I don't remember. I don't know how to do it."Loudy let out a long breath. "We should try it."The three of them tried to concentrate. They imagined their bodies changing, imagined feathers growing on their skin, gripping the floor with their claws. But nothing happened."I can't!" Lowly whispered frantically.Loudy gritted her teeth. "Try again!"But before the
