Alisha's POVAfter I got into the car, I expressed my gratitude to Brad, saying, "Thank you for your help just now.""It's no problem. I was simply following the Alpha's orders. He had some urgent matters to attend to, so he asked me to take care of you," Brad replied.I smirked and asked with curiosity, "Really? So, what was it that he needed to deal with?"Brad glanced at my expression through the rearview mirror and hesitated before speaking, "Um...actually, I...I guess it is a business meeting."I caught his gaze in the mirror, but Brad quickly averted his eyes and focused on the road ahead. It was evident that he was helping Archie conceal some embarrassing secret from me, which made him feel guilty.There was no point in pressuring Brad further. After all, he wasn't my husband. With that in mind, I turned my head away and stared out of the window. However, it soon dawned on me that we weren't heading towards Nova's house but..."Wait, Brad! Where are you taking me?" I asked imme
Alisha's POV"Miss, can I assist you?" he stepped out of the car, extending a black umbrella over my head. I flinched slightly as he approached, my uneasiness apparent. Sensing my discomfort, he promptly halted."Don't worry. I too am a werewolf from the Deep Moon pack. I can sense our shared nature. I won't hurt you. Please trust me." He locked his genuine blue eyes with mine.As I beheld those eyes, familiarity struck me—I had encountered him before! After a heated argument with Archie, I had fled and inadvertently collided with this man. To my surprise, he held no grudges and even offered me a tissue to wipe away my tears!A sigh of relief escaped me as I recollected the encounter. At least he wasn't a malevolent individual.As my tension eased, I couldn't suppress a sneeze.It was an embarrassingly awkward moment. Lowering his head, he asked with concern, "Are you alright?"Before I could respond, another sneeze erupted, intensifying my embarrassment.He furrowed his brow and gall
Alisha's POVJust after I angrily ending the call, Nova rushed downstairs upon hearing my voice, immediately noticing my drenched state and the borrowed coat."What happened, Alisha? You're completely soaked!" Nova exclaimed with concern."Long story, Nova. Damn Archie drove me out of his car, and the weather was against me today. But I met someone who helped me, and he lent me his coat," I explained.Nova raised an eyebrow, a mischievous grin spreading across her face. "Oh, really? I wanted to curse Archie, but please let me know who might this someone be?"I blushed, realizing how it sounded. "No, it's not what you're thinking! He's a werewolf too, from the Deep Moon pack. I hit him accidently before, and he recognized me today."Nova's eyes widened in surprise. "Wait, you mean that guy you met when you ran away from Archie? The one who gave you a tissue?"I nodded, a smile playing at my lips. "Yes, that's him. His name is Louie. He is genuinely kind and offered me shelter from the
Alisha’s POVThe next morning arrived, and I sought Nova's assistance in finding a suitable jewellery store where the ring could be rented out. I hurried back to the Golden Crest myself.As I stepped through the front door, a wave of memories washed over me, like an old photograph coming to life. The house, with its familiar layout and cozy corners, held stories of a life I loved very much before. But today, I had found my new life, and I couldn't let nostalgia distract me.In the heart of that house, I found my way to the kitchen. It was a place that had always offered solace, a sanctuary where I could lose myself in the art of cooking. Today, it became my refuge, a way to shield myself from the inevitable conversation with Archie.As I cooked, the aroma of the food filled the air, awakening a mix of emotions within me. It reminded me of the times when I used to cook meals for Archie. Since I married him, I worked hard to research what he liked to eat, trying to please him in this way
Alisha’s POV "Hi, Louie, I am Theresa, I am very sorry to trouble you. I remember you are from Deep Moon. I want to hire ten warriors to protect the Black Furies. Could you help me get in touch with them? I'm willing to offer a generous reward." With a hopeful mindset, I made a call to Louie. After all, he was the only werewolf from another pack that I knew. "Fine, Theresa. I'll have to ask my Alpha. We sometimes would accept the protection task, so it shouldn't be a problem. But I'd like to know, why do you need to hire warriors? It's important for us." "We received information that a group of rogues from the Dark Forest will be reaching our territory. We're concerned about a potential conflict. Our own... honestly speaking, we're not skilled in combat." As I said this, my face flushed with embarrassment. Though it was true, our pack had few warriors, and even my own ability was limited to wound healing. I couldn't shift or engage in battle, so this Gift was useless in fact. "Alri
Alisha's POVAs I read that tweet, a wave of disgust surged within me. Even though Erma had no idea that I was Theresa, her words still made me uncomfortable. It was a reminder that regardless of which identity I assumed, Erma remained my enemy.In the next moment, Nova's call came through."Alisha, did you see Erma's tweet? How dare she have the audacity! That despicable woman!""Yes, I saw it.""She claims the company ultimately chose her. Disgusting! She's lying! She's deliberately using Theresa to elevate herself!"I let out a sigh. "Let it go. Since I've already sold the rights to the song, let them do as they please. I've had a tiring day, Nova.""Alisha, well, I have some good news that might bring a smile to your face once you hear it!""What is it?" I asked curiously."Why don't you take a guess?" Nova replied, feigning mystery."Please spare me, sweetie. I really can't guess. You know how difficult things have been for me lately, all because of that jerk Archie. Today, I nea
Alisha's POV "What do you mean?" Erma looked at me alertly. "As the Luna of the Golden Crest, I, commanded you to kneel now!" I snarled with the Luna's tone. Upon hearing my command, Erma's face was filled with reluctance, but she couldn't defy Luna's request. Slowly, she knelt down, glaring at me with a burning desire to tear me apart. "Archie will avenge me! Just you wait!" I ignored her furious gaze. "Suit yourself. I'll be waiting for him." With that, I grabbed Nova's hand and left the store. Erma roared behind us, unwilling to accept defeat. "Everyone knows Archie's mother is very dissatisfied with you and is already looking for a mistress for him to have a baby. Once I give birth, your days are numbered!" Nova was furious. "You should take her out now while you're still Luna! She stole your husband and dares to threaten you! She's despicable!" I shook my head and whispered to Nova, "I can't do it. Despite the ceremony between me and Archie, he hasn't marked me, and I don't
Alisha's POVAfter DM Entertainment liked my tweet, the comments from netizens instantly changed."Wow, the company personally liked Theresa's tweet. Who is feeling embarrassed now?""Hahaha, so interesting! Someone just claimed to have the company's recognition and it turned out that was nonsense the next moment!""DM, well done!""Erma should apologize to Theresa!"Seeing the supportive comments towards me and the mockery directed at Erma, I felt a sense of relief. Nova excitedly chimed in, "That's great! Erma cannot so arrogant like before! She had the audacity to claim she was more deserving of the company's favor. She's shameless! And now she has been proven bragging! Karma's a bitch!"Curious, I asked Nova, "Did you contact DP Entertainment to ask for his help?"Nova shook her head, saying, "No, I only know their music director, the person I introduced you to last time. I think it's because of what happened last time; he feels guilty towards you and decided to help us. After all
Alisha's POVI saw under the night sky, my pack was covered in flames everywhere, and the air was filled with the constant cries of pain. My warriors were being attacked by rogues, their blood staining the ground, but they remained fearless, bravely picking up their weapons to continue the fight.However, the rogues seemed to possess an undead-like ability. They were shrouded in an ominous black mist, making them seemingly impervious to attacks. Even when bleeding, they felt no pain or avoidance. These rogues had become pure fighting machines.Gray and Orathe activated the Dyess fam
Alisha's POVThe intense pain left my body numb, but for some reason, my consciousness remained clear. The next moment, a black wolf broke through the window, biting into half of Louie's body, causing him to collapse to the ground.I even heard the sound of bones being crushed. Louie's hand was pulled out of my body, and blood spurted out, staining the entire carpet red.My wolf immediately transitioned from the Bay to reality and began healing me. I heard the sound of blood flowing out of my chest, the angry growls of the black wolf, and people downstairs rushing up upon hearing th
Archie's POVAfter I woke up, I saw Shaunda's concerned expression. "How do you feel, Archie?""I'm okay. Where am I?" I tried to lift my hand to rub my forehead but felt a sharp pain in my arm. The memories of what happened earlier flooded back, and my expression darkened."Don't move. Your wounds are deep; you need rest," Shaunda quickly stopped my actions. "We were planning to go back to Golden Crest, but your injuries were too severe. We had to find a place to treat your wounds temporarily. You had a high fever and were talking nonsense all night. It scared me. If your condition
Archie's POVI was carried away from Blood Dawn by my wolf, blood oozing from my wounds. Yet, the physical pain couldn't compare to the agony in my heart. My heart was dead; how could my body still feel?Alisha's determined face as she stabbed me haunted me. The piercing coldness seeped through every pore when I recalled that moment. She was willing to kill me for another man—her husband, as she emphasized. Husband, a title I once scoffed at, now tore me apart.My wolf seemed distraught too, incessantly muttering and complaining in my mind. "What have you done this time?" "I a
Alisha's POVAfter the wedding ceremony, considering Louie's health, I chose not to attend the evening party. With Nova's assistance, I changed out of my wedding gown and took Louie back to the room to rest.Tonight was the first night of our marriage, and as we entered the room, I felt a hint of nervousness. On the night I married Archie, he didn't sleep with me; instead, he slept in a guest room. Now, looking at our bridal chamber, I felt a bit lost.Louie seemed to sense my nervousness. He comfortingly smiled at me and said, "Sorry, because of me, you can't join the evening gathe
Archie's POVI had fantasized countless times about what my mate had described as her wolf. I wondered what it would look like. Now I knew. It was the most wonderful creature in the world, a gift from Moon Goodness to this world. Moonlight fell on its pure white fur, making it shimmer as if it had walked out of a fairy tale.I opened my mouth, staring motionlessly at the white wolf not far ahead. Its eyes, as clear and beautiful as jewels, met mine, and a breeze carried a delightful scent from its fur. It was the light in this dark world.With just one glance, I knew it must be Alis
Alisha's POVI never thought Archie would appear at my wedding. Why is he here? My palms were instantly soaked with cold sweat.Louie kept staring at me, noticing my tension and unease. He took my hand, holding it firmly as if trying to warm me. In a soft whisper, he reassured me, "I'm here. Don't worry."I tried to ignore the piercing glances behind me, following Gray's guidance with a stiff body, step by step, until I stood opposite him.Before me was Louie's face, but in my mind, Archie's face flas
Archie's POVI looked at the person in disbelief, and it turned out to be Louie! He was dressed in a suit, and although he looked a bit pale, he seemed lively, radiating joy. Yes, today he was going to marry Alisha, how could he not be happy?What were my feelings when I was going to marry Alisha before? I seemed to have forgotten, and back then, Alisha was just a command from Shaunda to me. I didn't care at that time, and I don't even have memories of our wedding.Thinking about it now, it fills me with profound bitterness. If there were a time machine, I would definitely go back and tell my indifferent self: you will fall in love with your bride; please treat her well from now on.Unfortunately, time doesn't rewind. Now, I could only, in regret, watch Louie in a groom's suit approach me step by step. I felt like a defeated person, trying to maintain pride and dignity in front of the winner.Upon hearing Louie's words, Gray frowned and said to Louie, "Why are you here? Go back and pr
Archie's POVHowever, as I was about to enter Blood Dawn, a shout suddenly came, "Stop!"I followed the voice and found Gray. I frowned and then calmly explained, "I'm here to attend... to attend the wedding." It was really hard for me to speak out this answer.Gray hurried over, shook his head at me, and said, "Today is an important day for Alisha. I don't want to fight with you at this moment. So be sensible and leave on your own."His voice was cold and full of hostility. I knew about his relationship with Alisha, so from his perspective, he had a reason not to like me. But regardless, today I must see Alisha, and no one, not even her brother, can stop me."I mean no harm. I know my actions hurt Alisha, and I just want to see her and apologize.""Put away that disgusting face of yours. Alisha is about to start her new life, and she doesn't need your apology or to see you again. Leave immediately!"Though I was prepared, hearing this response was
