The meeting Viggo had wanted to have with Karina's parents finally took place over the weekend. Viggo deliberately booked a dinner reservation at a luxurious restaurant located in the city center.Initially, Karina rejected the idea because she didn't want to be perceived as approaching Viggo just for his wealth. But Viggo insisted and reassured Karina that it wouldn't happen. In reality, Karina didn't approach Viggo because of his wealth. Especially on their first meeting, Karina had no idea who Viggo was.Upon arriving at the restaurant's lobby, a doorman immediately opened the door for Karina and Viggo, allowing them to step out of the car as usual. Viggo then approached Karina and extended his left hand to her. Understanding his gesture, Karina held Viggo's hand and entered the top-ranked Michelin Star restaurant."Relax, don't be tense. I'm here with you," Viggo whispered as the couple walked into the restaurant.Inside, they saw several people enjoying their dinner. Karina could
"Karina?" called an old woman who suddenly appeared out of nowhere.The woman approached Karina, causing her to stand up from her seat. Viggo turned towards Karina and immediately recognized the woman as Karina's mother, Emma.Karina's face was difficult to describe in words. On one hand, she looked happy, but on the other hand, not so much. It was as if Karina had her own trauma when meeting Emma."Mom?" Karina murmured upon seeing the woman approaching her.The woman smiled and then glanced at Viggo. Her expression instantly changed, and she stared intently at Viggo."Sorry, who are you?" Emma asked Viggo.Viggo also stood up to greet the elderly woman. After all, despite the fact that Viggo was older than Emma, Emma appeared older than him, as Viggo's appearance would not age before reaching a thousand years old."Good evening, Mrs. Emma. I'm Viggo, Karina's future husband," Viggo said."Future... husband?" Emma asked, momentarily confused, and then she looked at Karina with a puzz
Emma, furious, immediately grabbed the mineral water next to her and poured it onto Viggo. Karina and Harry, sitting next to her, were also shocked. Meanwhile, Viggo casually took out his handkerchief and wiped his wet face from the water Emma had poured on him."You disrespectful man! You have ruined my daughter's future! What do you have that allows you to ask for our permission after ruining it?!" Emma exclaimed.Viggo sighed. Now he understood why Karina had previously refused to meet her parents."My apologize," Viggo said.Emma gasped for breath, her emotions still running high from seeing her unwed pregnant daughter's behavior. Meanwhile, Viggo remained calm without feeling guilty, fueling Emma's anger even more.Emma stood up and was about to leave, saying, "Enough! I will never allow you to marry my daughter, no matter what!""Mom!" Karina exclaimed when she saw Emma about to leave."Karina! Abort that pregnancy of yours and choose a man who is better than this disrespectful
Today, Karina and Viggo finally set aside some time to prepare for their wedding amidst their busy work schedules. Especially for Karina, who had just been promoted to manager without an assistant. That's also why Karina sometimes lost track of time while working, until Viggo ordered her to go home. In the past few days, Viggo had been picking up Karina from her office to prevent her from working overtime.After meeting Karina's parents, Viggo felt that Karina had become slightly more open. Like now, on their way to the wedding venue for a site survey, Karina suddenly started talking without being prompted by Viggo."So, they got divorced when you were 18?" Viggo asked, making sure as he drove, occasionally glancing at Karina sitting beside him.Karina nodded, "Yes. It's been 11 years. Time flies, doesn't it? That's also why I started hating my birthday. Because they got divorced on my birthday.""When is your birthday?" Viggo asked."It's in September," Karina replied."I'll make sur
Karina furrowed her brow and then shrugged her shoulders. "Okay, just white then."After the small debate ended, Michael smiled. "Alright then.""Oh, will there be a cake cutting ceremony too?" Karina asked curiously."If you wish, it can be arranged, Madam," Michael replied.Karina looked at Viggo and gave him a pleading look, as if asking for his permission to have a cake cutting session.Viggo, feeling helpless under her gaze, sighed and scratched his temple, furrowing his brow."Please arrange a cake cutting session," Viggo requested.Karina immediately became delighted and nearly jumped with joy, if she hadn't remembered that she was pregnant at the moment."Thank you!" Karina exclaimed, restraining her excitement.Michael smiled again, amused by Karina and Viggo's adorable behavior, despite their significant age difference."Is there anything else I can assist you with?" Michael asked.Viggo turned to Karina. "Is there anything else you would like? Perhaps regarding the food?""
Preparations had been made by Karina and Viggo with the help of Arlo. Although Viggo insisted that Arlo could handle everything on his own, Karina still wanted to experience preparing for her wedding herself. For her, marriage only happens once in a lifetime, and Karina wanted to feel the busyness of managing everything so that she could cherish it later.Viggo, who initially wanted Arlo to take over, eventually gave in to Karina's desire and helped her prepare everything. As their wedding day approached, both of them began to feel the tension of the impending marriage.Initially, Viggo assumed that he wouldn't feel nervous, anxious, or even jittery about his wedding. But the reality was different. Viggo still felt nervous as the wedding day drew near.Tonight marked the last night for Karina and Viggo to be apart, as tomorrow they would get married and Karina would ultimately move into the main penthouse in the apartment building, which belonged to Viggo.Viggo had actually asked Kar
Slowly, the clouds that covered the full moon were gradually moving away, revealing its beautiful appearance. Eventually, its light was fully exposed, allowing two people who were outside to witness its beauty."So beautiful," murmured Karina as she looked at the full moon.Amidst Karina's enjoyment of the beautiful moon up there, she suddenly felt something strange in her stomach. Something unusual for a 16-week-old pregnancy."Ah!" Karina exclaimed and almost stumbled as she felt a sudden pain in her stomach.Xavier was startled while he was enjoying the beautiful moon view, and he immediately supported Karina's weakened body and helped her sit on the nearby chair."Are you okay?" Xavier asked, making sure Karina was fine.Karina furrowed her brow, enduring the strange pain in her stomach that inexplicably appeared.In the midst of the pain, they suddenly heard a howling sound echoing through the night sky. The sound was loud enough for Karina and Xavier to turn their gaze and searc
One by one, the invited guests began entering the Starlight Hotel ballroom, famous for its luxury and located in the center of the city. Various congratulations in the form of flower bouquets and flower boards were neatly arranged along the road from the street edge to the hotel lobby.The invited guests who came were not only from Deverell Apparel employees but also from various companies where Viggo had invested. And it wasn't just company representatives who came to congratulate him, but most of them were the owners of the companies themselves who came to extend their congratulations on Viggo's wedding.For ordinary people, Viggo's marriage at the age of 34 was the right age. However, for the werewolves, Viggo's marriage was considered late. Because Viggo had been serving as the Alpha for too long and had not yet found his Luna for 500 years.That was also what made Viggo weaker because he didn't have a Luna by his side.The werewolves who knew about this marriage and even the pres
The atmosphere was filled with the warmth of friendship and the joy of reunions. As Harry, Emma, and Martin joined the festivities, their presence added to the sense of togetherness that had come to define this group of extraordinary individuals.Harry, with his usual charisma, shared stories that had everyone laughing, while Emma's bright smile and Martin's witty remarks kept the conversations flowing. The camaraderie was palpable as old friends caught up and new connections were formed.Dante and Natalia, the inseparable couple, joined the group, their laughter blending seamlessly with the chatter around them. Emma's curiosity led her to ask Natalia about her profession, and with a proud smile, Natalia confirmed that she was indeed a midwife.Harry, intrigued, turned to Dante. "And what about you, Dante? What's your role in all of this?"Dante chuckled, exchanging a knowing look with Natalia. "Well, I'm not as directly involved in the medical field as Natalia, but I do support her i
Seven years later….Gathering around the barbecue, the pleasant aroma of grilling meat filled the air. Viggo arrived carrying a bag of meat, his son Easton walking by his side. As he stepped into the scene, Karina's eyes lit up, and she approached him with a smile, planting a warm kiss on his lips, a familiar and comforting gesture that spoke volumes about their love and connection.A sudden commotion caught their attention. Eloise, now a lively 7 year old, darted away, her laughter filling the air as she was chased by Kaiser, the young son of Odette and Lancelot.Eloise's playfulness was evident as she skillfully maneuvered around the tables and chairs, Kaiser hot on her heels. However, the carefree chase soon transformed into a playful argument.Eloise's voice rang out, "Kaiser, stop it! I don't want to be your Luna!"Kaiser, his youthful determination evident, responded with a cheeky grin, "But Eloise, we're going to get married
Upon hearing Scarlett's news about Harry's continued breathing after Gandalf left his body, Richard's eyes widened in disbelief and hope. Without wasting any time, he swiftly moved towards Harry's side, his heart pounding with a mix of worry and urgency.He signaled Poldo to assist him in transferring Harry to the nearby dining table, a more stable surface for medical treatment."Careful, Poldo. Let's get him over here," Richard instructed, his voice steady despite the turmoil within him.The two of them carefully moved Harry's unconscious form, and as Richard began to assess his condition, the room was tense with a mixture of anticipation and anxiety.Scarlett watched anxiously as Richard skillfully worked, his hands moving with precision as he used his medical equipment to assess Harry's vital signs. Every second felt like an eternity, the weight of the situation pressing heavily on everyone present. The room was filled with the beeping of medical devic
In a chaotic and fierce battle, the clash between the werewolves and the army of artificially created humans under Gandalf's command intensified. The battlefield was a symphony of roars, clashes, and the crackling of magical spells. The moonlit night bore witness to the desperate struggle for dominance, each side fighting with all their might.Gandalf, his body now a mosaic of scars and wounds, moved with an eerie determination. The dark magic coursing through him granted him an unnatural strength, but it was clear that his body was reaching its limits. The wounds inflicted by the werewolves and their relentless attacks had taken a toll, and his ability to regenerate had slowed down considerably.As he pushed through the battlefield, his gaze was fixed on the castle in the distance, his ultimate target. The castle, once a symbol of power and unity among the werewolves, now stood as the last line of defense against his relentless advance. He was determined to break thro
As the intense battle raged on, Viggo's vision slowly cleared as he struggled to regain his senses. His body ached, and the taste of blood lingered in his mouth, evidence of the toll that the fight had taken on him. Yet, something within him had changed. It was as if a dormant power had been awakened, fueled by the urgency of the situation.Summoning all his strength, Viggo pushed himself up from the ground, his eyes flashing with determination. He knew he couldn't afford to falter now, not when the fate of Celestria hung in the balance.Coughing up blood, Viggo managed to stagger to his feet, his presence commanding and formidable. With a newfound energy coursing through his veins, he felt the power of the alpha surging within him, stronger than ever before. The injuries and exhaustion seemed distant as he focused solely on the battle at hand.“Sir, are you okay?!” ask Arlo panicked when see blood in Viggo’s hand.Ignoring the pain, Vig
As the full moon cast its ethereal glow over the surroundings, a chorus of howls echoed through the night as the werewolves emerged from the shelter of Celestria. Meanwhile, inside Eloise's old room, the atmosphere was charged with a mixture of anticipation and tension.Karina's face contorted in pain as the contractions intensified. Natalia, Selena, and Zayn stood by her side, offering words of encouragement and support. Lavinia had departed, her presence now among the werewolves outside.Karina's grip tightened on the bedsheet beneath her as another wave of pain surged through her. Natalia adjusted her medical equipment, ready to assist in the process. Selena held Karina's hand firmly, her eyes filled with empathy and reassurance. Zayn was standing a bit farther, giving Karina the space she needed while his face displayed a mix of worry and determination.Suddenly, the room seemed to vibrate with a primal energy. A resonating roar, not of agony but of power, r
Everyone gathered in Viggo and Karina's room, watching as Karina began to feel the pain in her abdomen. They were all enthusiastic about the impending birth of the twin babies that would soon arrive tonight.Richard, who was also in the room, glanced out the window and saw the moonlight of the full moon still obscured by clouds. He turned and nodded to Arlo, signaling something unspoken."It's time to move Miss Karina to Miss Eloise's room, sir," Arlo said to Viggo.Viggo, who had been sitting beside Karina, holding her hand, gently kissed her forehead, providing a sense of calm. "I'm sure you're strong, my love. You're my wife, and you've come so far to overcome everything. Now it's time for you to fight for the last time," Viggo told Karina, trying to encourage his wife.Karina nodded her head, feeling her pain increasing as if the time to give birth was near. Her contractions continued to intensify as time passed.Slowly, Viggo released his grip
Viggo and Zayn stood casually outside a small convenience store, each holding a cup of steaming coffee. The aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafted in the air as they leaned against the wall. The evening was cool, and the soft glow of the store's lights added a cozy ambiance to the scene.Zayn chuckled softly as he observed Viggo taking a sip of his coffee. "I can't help but find it amusing, you know," Zayn said, a mischievous glint in his eyes.Viggo raised an eyebrow, looking puzzled. "What's amusing?"Zayn's grin widened. "You, drinking coffee. I mean, I've heard about werewolves and their unique diet. Coffee isn't exactly part of that, is it?"Viggo chuckled in response, his lips curling into a wry smile. "You've got a point there. No, coffee isn't a usual part of our diet."Zayn playfully nudged Viggo's arm. "So, what's the occasion? Celebrating a successful arrest?"Viggo took another sip of his coffee, his expression thoughtful. "Not ex
The sound of a knock on the door made Zayn, who was immersed in his work, finally look towards the source of the sound. Coinciding with the knocking, the door to his office opened, and a man appeared behind it."What's up, Shawn?" Zayn asked as he saw Shawn, his assistant, entering the room.Shawn walked closer to Zayn and handed him a piece of paper. "The arrest warrant for Lucas has been issued. The CCTV footage you requested to be enhanced has been clarified, and the evidence is strong enough to prove that he ignited the fire at the hospital," Shawn explained.Zayn's eyes lit up instantly. He stood up from his seat and glanced at the arrest warrant. "Do the police know?" Zayn inquired."Yes, they do. They're heading to the location to apprehend Lucas," Shawn replied."Then let's go there too," Zayn said decisively.Shawn nodded and left Zayn's office first. Before leaving, Zayn reached into his pocket, took out his phone, and dialed Viggo
