Louie's POV
Under the guidance of the warriors from Blood Dawn, we arrived in a room adorned with warm golden lights. It seemed like a medical area, well-equipped to tend to injuries. A sense of relief washed over me as I knew Alisha would receive proper care here.As the door closed behind us, I gently placed Theresa on the bed, her breathing still labored from the pain of her wounds. The leader spoke with authority, introducing a she-wolf to us, "It seems that your companion's wounds need treatment. If you don't mind, Lola can help you. She is very attentive and knowledgeable in medical matters, a very reliable warrior." Lola's presence reassured me, knowing that Theresa would be in good hands."In addition, I have already informed our Alpha. Before he arrives, you must stay here," the leader continued.I nodded gratefully, acknowledging the leader's suggestion, "Thank you very much. We appreciate your help, and we won't leave. Theresa's safety is myAlisha's POVLola's expertise in healing was truly remarkable. With skilled precision, she tended to my wound, cleaning it thoroughly before gently wrapping it in fresh bandages. Her experienced hands moved swiftly yet carefully, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude wash over me."You're lucky this time," she said with a hint of relief in her voice. "The wound isn't too deep, and the rogue's claws didn't carry any poison. Otherwise, you would have been in grave danger." I silently thanked Moon Goodness for sparing me from more serious harm.With the wound neatly bandaged, she handed me a new set of clothes, and her considerate gesture touched my heart. "Your clothes got torn while treating the wound, so you can wear mine for now."I gratefully accepted the clothes she provided. The soft fabric was a welcome change from the tattered and blood-stained clothing I had been wearing. I quickly changed into the fresh garments, feeling more comfortable
Archie's POV:A storm raged within me, tearing at my soul as I stood before the ridiculous scene unfolding in front of me. The girl that Louie had been so captivated by, was she truly Alisha? The mate he had chosen for his lifetime was my Luna? And the friend he wanted to introduce me to was actually my wife! Was this a cosmic joke played on me?Questions and doubts swirled like a tempest in my mind, each gust fueling the flames of anger that threatened to consume me. When had Alisha met Louie? Why were they together here? What had they been doing behind my back? The fury surging through me was relentless, unyielding, making my chest feel tight and my breath erratic.Even if I had managed to snatch Alisha away from Louie and hold her tightly in my arms, it still wouldn't have quelled this seething rage within me. My heart ached at the mere thought of Louie being close to her, his hand intertwined with hers. I couldn't bear the sight of them together, as if they shared
Alisha's POVAs I looked at the man standing before me, someone I had briefly met after the interview, my mind buzzed with surprise and puzzlement. "Gray?" I called out his name, unable to contain my astonishment.Gray nodded slightly, his eyes filled with concern as he asked, "Are you okay? Is the injury severe?"Lola's expression looked utterly surprised, as if she had never seen her Alpha speak so gently before. She exchanged glances with the other pack members, and they all seemed taken aback by Gray's unexpected behavior.Gray's question caught me off guard. When I had encountered Gray before, I had mistaken him for an ordinary human. But now, with the revelation that he was the Alpha of the Blood Dawn pack, responsible for guarding the perilous Dark Forest, my perception of him shifted entirely. The recent rogue attack flashed in my mind, and I trembled at the thought of the dangers he and his pack faced.Trying to regain my composure, I replied, "I fe
Alisha's POVMy heart raced, entangled in a web of conflicting emotions as Archie's manipulative tactics took hold. The conversation I had overheard between Joey and Evita earlier that night echoed persistently in my thoughts, adding weight to my growing concerns about Joey's mysterious solo trip into the foreboding Dark Forest. Though the true intentions behind his actions remained unknown, an important premonition warned me that he was entangled in something dangerous. Yet, before I had a chance to make it clear, I couldn't take the risk that Archie's impulsive nature might let Joey get alerted. For now, I had no other option but to feign compliance with Archie's demands, hoping that my facade would shield my loved grandma from harm.Suppressing my pride, I mustered a facade of compliance, trying to keep my voice steady, "Alright, Archie. Let's go back to Golden Crest together." Even as I uttered those words, my heart pounded with resolve, silently vowing to divorce this
Archie's POVHmph, absolutely! Alisha is just obsessed with money! I should have realized it sooner and simply used wealth to sway her to my side! Bad girl! She had time to linger with Louie and Gray, yet when I asked her to accompany me to the grand banquet hall, she refused without hesitation! Her audacity knows no bounds!If only I had offered her a hefty sum, perhaps a billion, and instructed her to cease all contact with Louie and Gray! Surely she would have complied, or maybe I should have gone as far as ten billion!"Bro, stop dawdling! If you wait for Louie and Gray to catch up, you'll regret it! Don't waste time; take Alisha inside now. There are plenty of people in there. Use this opportunity to show your love and concern for Alisha, and then maybe Alisha will forgive you," my wolf started to chatter."Huh! Who cares about her impression of me?" I replied with an air of indifference."Who was about to get into a fight with Louie and Gray in the treatment room just now? And
Alisha's POVI never expected that these she-wolves were actually discussing Archie, and to my surprise, they were talking about his performance in bed! Hahaha! Now it seemed that they all knew Archie was impotent! I had a strong suspicion that this news came from Blue Lake. Thanks to those two "gifts"-who had no manners and were so arrogant. Nevertheless, I had to admit, I was grateful for their loose tongues this time.It was such a big surprise to hear rumors about Archie's sexual abilities in this occasion. I couldn't help but chuckle secretly. Compared with Archie, who brought this upon himself by fooling around with Erma, I just told a little lie. What’s more, in the end, it was his mother, Stephenie, who was to blame. If she hadn't brought those she-wolves from Blue Lake to the Golden Crest, this rumor might never have spread in the first place. It was all interconnected, and I couldn't help but find some twisted amusement in the situation.I
Alisha's POVMy heart was racing as Archie's words hung in the air, and I felt a mix of shock and disbelief. How could he ask me to say such a private thing in front of all these people? The embarrassment washed over me like a tidal wave, leaving me flushed and speechless. And I could feel the weight of everyone's eyes on us. It was too humiliating.Archie, seemingly oblivious to my discomfort, held onto my waist affectionately and suddenly changed his tone, "My dear, you know the truth better than anyone else. Don't you want to help me prove it?"His words were laced with sweetness, but they made me feel more uneasy.. I couldn't understand what had gotten into Archie. Was he losing his mind due to the rumors? Why was he suddenly speaking so tenderly? It was unsettling, and I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that crept over me.I shot him a stern look, trying to have him stop making a scene. Especially with Louie and Gray watching us, I dreaded the weird impr
Alisha's POVArchie led me out of the grand banquet hall, and as we made our way through the bustling crowd, I could feel curious gazes following us. Brad and Suzy flanked us, their presence offering a semblance of security in the midst of the unfamiliar werewolf territory. The soft murmur of conversations and the clinking of glasses gradually faded as we stepped outside, the cool night air a stark contrast to the warmth of the festivities.Nestled in the car, I watched the world pass by through the window, my thoughts a whirlwind of emotions. The events of the evening had left me both puzzled and intrigued. Why had Archie chosen to say those words in front of the crowd? Was it because my response really have pleased him so much? Was he willing to publicly defend me as a gesture of gratitude? I pondered these questions, my mind a labyrinth of uncertainty.After all, he had confronted Erma with those words, infuriating her to the point where she might have wanted to tear me apart. Thin
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
