THIRD PERSON’S POVAfter making sure that Loraine had finally slept peacefully, and it seemed that the medicine had kicked in, Aaron let out a sigh of relief and his hand reached out, caressing Loraine’s face before he stood up.Before he left, he took one glance at Loraine and made sure that she wasn’t suffering from the pain right then.Although he felt uncomfortable in his heart that Loraine had rejected him as his mate, he felt relief that it really didn’t have an effect, especially that his bond with Loraine was too strong, and the mark on his back was proof of it.Loraine belongs to him.His gaze deepened and darkened. “It seems that I have to start cleaning the mess that I made.”He looked at Loraine again, slightly bent down and brushed his lips against hers as he softly whispered in her ears, “Just wait for me, okay? I will soon clean up all the mess that I made and won’t ever think of entertaining another man other than me.”After that, he left Loraine’s room and went back t

Loraine’s PovIn the middle of the night, I couldn’t help but furrow, especially as I felt there was something wrong in my surroundings. More like I had become sensitive to the presence of a living being and I couldn’t properly sleep because I was tired from the laborious work as a servant here in this pack, plus the fact that I felt someone was watching me.However, I couldn’t sense a murderous intent coming from this person, so my body was on alert, ready to attack this person if he emitted even a dust of murderous intent.Damn it, I really wanted to sleep but if I, didn’t open my eyes right now and let this person stare at me, he might burn a hole in my body.“Just what do you want?” I hoarsely asked with my eyes closed.I sensed that man slowly enter my room through the window, and just by the way he walked towards my direction, I could already guess who it was, so I didn’t bother to open my eyes to see him.“Who was it?” He coldly asked, and I felt the heaviness on my bed.I felt
Loraine’s PovI stretched my body as soon as I woke up. When I looked at the clock, it was already one in the afternoon, making me freeze.Damn it! So that’s why the quality of my sleep was good, and I felt refreshed all over because it was already late!Ahhh! My work!I hurriedly went to the bathroom to take a shower and do all my morning routine before I went out to ask for the head maid, sorry.While I was walking to find her, I encountered my fellow maids… well, it wasn’t that surprising given that they also worked here, so of course, no matter where I went, if I were there in the pack, I would see them and hear their mocks.“Woah, did you oversleep, or did you run away from your responsibilities again?” It was Tasha, the one who loved to make fun of me.I let out a heavy sigh and scratched the back of my head as I looked at her with pity without saying anything, making her tremble from anger and her cheeks reddening.“What the hell are you looking at me like you for?!” She angril
Loraine’s PovAs expected, I was their target. I couldn’t help but grit my teeth and glare at them.“Let them go. What do you want from us?” I asked while looking at the two of them coldly.The one who was holding a blooded ax, named Ash, let out a chuckle while showing his broad grin, highlighting how creepy he looked right now.“We will let them go, only if you follow us.” Ash said while grinning from ear to ear, and he even licked his lips, looking at me with those lustful gazes that made me cringe all over.Damn it. Why do I always get involved with these creeps? Do I look like a magnet that will only attract these fucking creeps? Does my face scream for their attention?I couldn’t help but feel disgusted at the way that they looked at me.Before I could open my mouth and speak, when suddenly, someone interrupted us. It was one of the maids who had been sobbing earlier, begging for mercy, and with snots all over, speaking while pointing her fingers at me.“Take her! She’s the one
Loraine's Pov“Are you okay?” He kept on asking me the same questions over and over again, not even minding the two people whom he had taken down and were currently lying on the floor with broken bones and bruises.They were badly beaten up by Aaron, who didn't even let them get the chance to take their breath and continuously beat them up with the intention of killing them.Earlier, he was coldly gazing at them and his whole body exuded such a heavy murderous aura, but now, he was looking... well, pretty annoying.“Shut up, Aaron. My head is hurting from your constant questions.” I calmly said as I stood up, walking towards Anna, whose eyes and nose were red.Aaron, who was also following me, spoke. “I won't stop asking you if you won't answer me. I told you that we should go to the infirmary to get you checked. I know you have a high tolerance of pain, but there's no need for you to endure that.”I let out a heavy sigh and looked at him. “I'm really fine. Besides, don't you already
Third-Person PovA dark figure, forming a muscular man who was currently waiting for Loraine to show up in her room. He was standing patiently and trying to minimize his presence.However, he suddenly grips his sharp knife tightly and his whole body emits such a heavy murderous aura. He had just received a message that two brothers had been beaten badly, and they had finally lost their lives just now. Someone had delivered the final blow to them.His gaze became darker and sharper, trying to minimize his presence, especially as he had felt Loraine’s presence walking back to her room.The moment that the door was open, the man watched as Loraine closed the door. Without waiting for her to turn her back, the man appeared behind her, and his hand reached out, locking the door and his other hand was pointing his sharp knife at her neck.“Don’t do anything and be a good girl.” The man coldly said with his lower voice.Loraine was about to open her mouth and when the man had seen this, he m
Third Person’s PovLoraine ran as fastest as she could. This was the first time that she felt panic. Her whole body was trembling even though she felt calm in her heart, yet her body instinctively warned her about how dangerous it would be if she stayed in that place.She couldn’t help but curse when she still felt the man’s presence behind her, running persistently towards her.It was creepy.If she continued to run while using the path that they had taken earlier, this man would end up catching her, and she knew that it would be no good if the man would catch her, especially if she tried to escape this time.‘Loraine? Loraine? Can you hear me?’Loraine was slightly taken back when she heard Aaron’s voice, speaking to her directly to her mind.“Yes, I could hear you. What’s the matter?” Loraine tried to answer in the smoothest and calmer way, but Aaron still managed to catch her.‘I felt your troubles, so I was wondering what happened to you. Where are you now?’ Aaron calmly asked he
Loraine's Pov“You're here.” I calmly said while looking in a certain direction. I chuckled and said with a tease. “I thought that you would only return once we announced my wedding with Aaron?”Kavier, who had now grown a beard and his features became even more prominent and matured, his wheat color made him look masculine, rolled his eyes and walked towards my direction, then sat down on the chair.“It's a bit shocking that your big dog isn't clinging to you?” Kavier sneered and added, “I've heard that ever since you woke up, he would always follow you and would bring you along wherever he goes?”I chuckled as I handed him the tea I had brewed. “Yeah, I was also taken back too, but I could guess that he was up to something behind my back.”Kavier rolled his eyes at me and took a sip of the tea. “Do you feel like you're being restrained by him? Especially that he is too protective and possessive when it comes to you? Who knows one day you will find it annoying. I would be delighted i
THIRD PERSON'S POVNow that the two kids know how to read the room, especially upon seeing their father's restless emotions towards their mother, as if he couldn't wait to talk to her, so after they expressed how they missed her very much and how much they loved her, they gave their parents a space to talk and be honest with each other.Loraine found himself sitting in Aaron's lap while he was facing her back to him. She watched as those arms wrapped tightly around her waist as he buried his face in her neck.“Are you fine now? There's really nothing going on with your body that you aren't telling me, hm?” He softly asked.Loraine smiled and shook her head as she leaned her body on him. “No, I'm really fine now. After those long “rests”, I am fully healed and, other than feeling numb and being uncomfortable walking or standing, nothing else hurts now.”Aaron pursed his lips and closed his eyes as he exhaled her scent as if he couldn't get over it. He held her tightly and was trying to
Loraine's PovAlthough I was hesitant at first, I nodded my head and let Aaron carry me, taking me to our home. I... I never imagined that I would have a child and those children are still alive despite the fact that the shaman had kicked my belly that time so hard, trying to kill my children.I thought that they were already... I shook my head and stopped thinking about those messy thoughts. What's important right now is that knowing that they are healthy, and although I gave birth to them through the cesarean method while I was in a coma, it was a good thing to know that I managed to bring them back alive.“What are you thinking?” He asked as he walked me down to our home, entering the newly built villa that he built for us.“You really didn't build this villa for your little mistress, right?” I jokingly asked while raising my brows, looking at him, who had a serious expression, but his aura was gentler.Although he looked fatigued and seemed to be lacking sleep, he was still vigoro
Loraine's PovI was woken up by the constant growl of my stomach and the quenching thirst of my throat. I slowly opened my eyes and couldn't help but frown as I squinted my eyes, slowly adjusting to the light that had hit my face.I glanced outside the window and saw that winter had already passed. Just how long did I remain unconscious?“Oh? You're finally awake.”I slowly move my head, which is stiff from probably lying on the bed in the same position. I don't know how long I was asleep, but I guess that it took long enough for my body to become rigid.“How long...” I paused and was taken back at how hoarse my voice was, as if its saliva had dried off.Nathan sighed and poured water into the glass, and then gave it to me.I took it and, without hesitation, I gulped the water down to its last drop, then handed it to him again.“More?”I nodded my head, and he gave me a bottle of water and I took it and drank it again until the bottle was empty before I sighed in relief.I looked at h
Third Person's PovThe doctor, Nathan, was about to pack himself to go back to his hometown, when the door of his room had burst out, making him panic as he looked in that direction.He thought that he was under-attacked by the enemies, but the person who had attacked his door was none other than the Alpha King.Yet, upon seeing the Alpha King's expression and the heavy aura around him, he felt that it would be better to be attacked by the enemies instead.“A-Alpha...”Before he could finish his words, his eyes happened to fall at the person that the Alpha King was gently carrying.Upon seeing those familiar faces, his eyes deepened as he became serious. He looked at the Alpha King with a frown.“What happened to her? How could she become like this?! Didn't you promise to protect her?!” Nathan's fear had vanished instantly upon seeing Loraine's condition.He couldn't help but glare at the Alpha King instead, and the Alpha King didn't get angry when he got scolded.Instead, he stood st
Third Person's PovBefore the shaman could get her chance to come back, Loraine, who saw through her petty tricks, sneered as she grabbed the shaman's neck using her hands, choking her tightly as if she would snap necks of hers.Loraine coldly gazed at her and sneered. “You're too weak. The thing that made you strong was only your manipulative tactics and those petty tricks of yours.”The shaman, with her face slowly turning purple, glared at her with a hateful gaze and, despite that she was having a hard time breathing, she spoke with the corner of her lips raised.“So what? I managed to kill your parents... besides... cough...” she couldn't finish her words when the moment she mentioned Loraine's parents, Loraine had tightened the grip around the shaman's neck, making the shaman's eyes redden as she turned purple.Yet, when Loraine was about to snap the shaman's neck, the shaman's hands were, in fact, holding something and when she pressed it, a white smoke appeared to jolt both of
Third Person's PovA woman's painful scream could be heard inside the basement and echoed her voice. Blood had fallen down from her body and dripped down on the ground, soiling the candles that served as lights for them.She couldn't move her body even though she wasn't being chained or tied down. Blooded tears had wetted her cheeks as she let out a painful scream as he watched Penelope who was stabbing her with a knife from her shoulders and her ankles.Her body had lost its strength. Her head was throbbing. She gritted her teeth and tried hard to remain conscious.“It's really amazing that you had the same ability as your mother.” the shaman grinned as she kept on stabbing her whenever her wounds healed. “However, let's see which one of us will give up. Your healing ability or me.”After she said that, she laughed out loud while stabbing her again, again, and again.Loraine couldn't even count nor remember how many times she had been stabbed.She didn't know if the shaman was doing
Third Person's Pov“Loraine!”Both Aaron and Kavier shouted her name when they saw her being hit by an arrow in her shoulder.Before they could run in her direction, Loraine was suddenly swallowed by the ground, making it impossible for them to catch up with her.Aaron's gaze darkened as his knuckles turned red. “Damn it!”Kavier gritted his teeth and his eyes revealed anxiousness and worries. He looked at Aaron and said, “Go on and find your mate! I'm sure that you can find her since you two have connections to each other! I'll take care of this shits here!”Hearing this, Aaron wasn't polite as he turned his back and ran towards a certain direction where his gut was telling him to go.His body exudes such a heavy murderous aura as if he would kill anyone right now if they dared to stop him—well, he would.His heart was churning with anger as he desperately tried to contact Loraine through their mind-link while feeling her bond. He knows that Loraine won't be able to get away from him
Third Person's PovLoraine took a deep breath and endured the nausea feeling. She looked at Aaron who exuded such a heavy aura and couldn't help but sigh.“Stop it, Aaron. I know that he didn't mean it. After all, he knows the Shaman since she was a friend of my parents but who was expecting the Shaman to be the one who manipulated this entire fight.” Loraine said as she tried to brush off the uncomfortable feeling that washed over her body and stood up.Kavier pursed his lips. He was still feeling guilty for what he had done. If it happened that he really killed Loraine, he would also kill himself. But if that happened, he didn't know how to face his parents and Loraine's parents when he had sworn to them that he would protect her and leave her to him.Yet, he almost killed Loraine.On the other hand, Aaron took a deep breath and closed his eyes, trying to suppress the anger in his heart. Then he looked at Loraine with worry.“Are you okay now? Did that Shaman do something to you?” H
