Archie's POVWhen I arrived at Blood Dawn, I dared not reflect on how I had spent this period. Every minute, every second, for me, was torture.Since I learned from Shuanda that Alisha was going to marry Louie, I have been in constant pain and agony. I even decided to break into Blood Dawn directly, snatch Alisha back to my side, and keep her with me forever. Other than that, I didn't know what else I could do. The pain of losing a mate filled every cell in my body.But Shuanda stopped me. She completely disagreed with my plan. "Archie, you have made mistakes in the past. You can't continue on this wrong path!""I don't care about any mistakes. As long as I can have Alisha back, no mistake matters!""No! Using force will only push Alisha further away from you! Make her more distant! Is that what you expect?"Under Shuanda's stern questioning, I couldn't find any words to say.Yes, I had hurt her before, pushed Alisha away, and she left me with hatred. Did I want to hurt her more?In a
Archie's POVUpon hearing Stephenie's words, this time my wolf, instead of waiting for me to get angry, became furious on its own.Ever since it heard Shaunda say that Alisha was going to marry Louie, it had been uncharacteristically silent. It curled up in the bay, indifferent to whatever was happening outside.But this time, Stephenie's words clearly infuriated it. It burst out of the bay on its own, manifested next to me, and roared angrily at Stephenie. Its sharp teeth gleamed, and its claws fiercely dug into the ground, leaving terrifying marks.Stephenie, startled by the sudden appearance of my wolf, screamed and retreated. My wolf even took two threatening steps forward, its expression fiercely hostile, seemingly intending to tear Stephenie apart and swallow her.Stephenie fell to the ground in fear, waving her handbag and shouting, "Get away, you monster!"I knew Stephenie always disliked me and my wolf. This wasn't the first time I heard the wo
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
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
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 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 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 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 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
