Leon’s POVBree’s job is pretty good. He became Ariane’s stalker. If not, I might have a hard time dividing my time between my job and finding Ariane. I, who no longer have time, often meet Ariane but mostly fail. I also have to be patient because I feel like this might be my destiny to separate from Ariane.Until I had no other choice when the judge said that I really had to separate from Ariane. I gave up because I couldn’t force Ariane to stay with me. Maybe she was at a point where she no longer had patience and also accepted me who had never loved her. This was purely my fault so I had no other choice. I apologized to Ariane when I was with her lawyer to meet her.I waited until Ariane came out of her apartment. She was about to go to the supermarket to shop. Why didn’t I do it a long time ago, even though this was a fun thing? Being able to take my wife shopping and choosing all the household needs. Ah, regret always comes at the end.I also

Leon’s POVTears threatened to fall, but I fought them back. My pain wasn’t just about the loss, but about feeling separated from something so precious. With the baby inside her, Ariane would always be a part of my life, no matter how we made it.Maybe I didn’t have to forget Ariane completely; Maybe what I need to do is learn to let go in a healthier way. Accept that fate may have taken us on different paths, but the love is still there. A love that doesn’t fade, even when distance separates us.With renewed determination, I try to imagine a future—not without Ariane, but as parents to our children. This is where I can find the strength to keep going, even though my heart still feels heavy.“Mr. Leon?” Bree’s voice rings out softly, breaking the reverie that’s clouding my mind. “What’s wrong?” I ask, trying to distract myself from the thoughts swirling around inside me.“I have to go now. I have something to do,” she replies in a serious, ye
Ariane’s POV I nodded slowly, feeling a little warmth in my heart. Amidst the silence and emptiness I faced, this simple offer felt like a ray of light that could dispel the dark clouds. Though my heart was still filled with longing for Ariane, Regina’s presence and invitation provided an opportunity to connect and share a moment, if only for a moment. “Thank you, Regina. That sounds very nice,” I replied, trying to put a smile on my face despite the emotion that enveloped my feelings. “I really appreciate it.”Regina seemed pleased to hear my answer. “I’ve prepared some of your favorite dishes. Let’s enjoy some time together at the dining table, it can also be a good way to refresh your mind.”This conversation made me feel more remembered and accepted. Even though there were many things I had to face, this moment with my friends at Black Moon Pack could give me new strength.“Okay, I’ll get ready,” I replied, starting to feel a little lig
Ariane’s POV Regina nodded. “We need to make sure that the relationship between the packs remains good. If there is anything we can do, we should try to avoid conflict. However, the decision is up to the leaders.”Seeing Regina’s expression, I felt the need to be more actively involved in this situation, not only for myself but also for the children in my womb. If conflict were to occur, it could make things worse for everyone.“Alright, let’s try to find a way to help,” I said firmly, starting to plan the steps that needed to be taken. By working together, we could try to create peace and avoid bloodshed.The thought of Leon brought even more anxiety to my heart. He should have been able to come here before this battle actually happened. As the Alpha, his strength was crucial to maintaining peace between the conflicting packs. Even though we were dealing with a complicated relationship, I knew Leon had a great responsibility to protect his comm
Ariane’s POV Finally, some of the tense faces began to soften, and the tension between them seemed to ease a little. A dialogue could emerge between them rather than further fighting. I knew this was an important first step, and every move toward peace was a step toward protection—for everyone, but especially for my children’s future. “Let’s talk,” I said, like a bridge between two separate worlds. “We want to find a solution together, for everyone here.” I hoped these words would be a starting point to defuse a potentially dangerous situation. “I-isn’t that…?” Regina’s voice drifted softly beside me, but I couldn’t answer. My eyes focused on a figure in the crowd. At first glance, the face seemed familiar. Tears suddenly fell uncontrollably. Reality seemed to flood back into my mind, though the memories felt vague and fragmented. But how could I forget the face that had given me love and security in my childhood—my father? Was he still alive? And
Ariane’s POV “Yes, that’s all I want,” he replied, his eyes sparkling with hope. “We’re going to take this step together. I want to mend the pieces and try to be in your life again.”Instantly, a new glimmer of hope entered my life, and though this journey would not be easy, I knew that this moment was the beginning of something beautiful—a chance to rebuild lost connections, hear each other’s stories, and start a new chapter in a life that had been separated for so long.“I’m sorry, Ariane. If you really want to be with me again, you have to destroy the Black Moon Pack. We have to make more power with the Blue Moon Pack.” My father’s words shocked me, like a bolt of lightning that struck me in an instant. Honestly, I didn’t know how to respond. “I can’t, Dad,” I replied with tension coursing through me.“Think about it again. After that, we can be together,” he said in a firm tone as if confirming a difficult choice for me.Lookin
Ariane’s POV The two of us headed towards one of the special doors that connected the Black Moon Pack and the city where I lived. This door was the main access to move between the two worlds, and every time I walked through it, I felt like I was stepping onto a new and unexpected path. Nostalgia began to flow as I approached the door. Memories of a city filled with experiences and relationships flashed through my mind. Sometimes living in the werewolf world could be confusing, but in the city, everything felt simpler—just people and everyday life. As the door opened, I stepped inside and felt a fresh breeze flowing as if welcoming me back. The excitement to explore the city streets began to burn within me, but the worry about what I would find there was also present. After crossing the border, I continued my journey toward the city center with plans to visit places I hadn’t seen in a long time. There were many things I had to overcome: friends I ha

Zara and Zoya immediately ran towards the water, while Mark and I followed behind. We laughed and joked, feeling the simple yet precious joy.Mark looked at me. “Look, Dad! I can make a bigger sandcastle than yesterday!” Zoya exclaimed, starting to dig in the sand with her bare hands.Zara nodded in agreement, “Let’s build it together! We can add the shells we found yesterday.”We all got involved in creating a grand sandcastle. Every shell we found became a decoration to beautify the castle. As the sun rose higher, we had successfully built a magnificent sandcastle, complete with towers and sturdy walls.Savoring melt
Ariane’s POV “Look how happy they are,” Mark whispered. “You are the reason behind their smiles.”I looked at the kids, gratitude filling my heart. I knew my life might not be perfect, but the love I had was everything. I promised myself to keep fighting, not just for myself, but for my family.“Thank you, Mark,” I said sincerely. “For always being here for me.”“Forever, Ariane,” Mark replied, gazing at me with love. “We’ll face anything together.”With renewed spirit, I moved forward, ready to tackle every challenge that came our way. I knew that although life was full of uncertainties, the love and support of my family would always be the light guiding me.That night, the sky was adorned with twinkling stars, creating a magical atmosphere at the beach.

Ariane’s POVNot long after, Mark rushed in. His face showed deep panic, and I could feel how much he loved us. He immediately came to me, holding my hand gently. "Honey, how are you? Has the doctor told you anything?"I shook my head. "Not yet. Still waiting for the test results."Mark sighed, and I could see the burden he carried. He always tried to be the pillar of strength for us, and I knew how hard it was for him to see me in this state.Zoya, who had been playing in the corner, now approached.

She reminded me that even though life was full of challenges, there was still happiness to be found within it. I tried to stay positive, although the shadows of fear continued to haunt me.After a while, the do
Ariane’s POVI chose to follow both of them, feeling the excitement around us. The sounds of footsteps, laughter from children, and soft music from a nearby café added to the atmosphere. Every corner of the mall seemed to offer something interesting. We paused briefly in front of a food stand, where the spicy and sweet aromas of street food enticed our appetites."How about we try some snacks after this?" I suggested, hoping to satisfy my hunger. Zara and Zoya nodded in agreement, our exploratory spirit growing stronger. We continued this little adventure with high curiosity, ready to find a restaurant that could satisfy our bellies and provide us with unforgettable experiences.After a while, Zara emerged from the bookstore with two novels in her hands. "Mom, this is the book I was looking for!" she exclaimed with a wide smile. I was thrilled to see her so excited. Meanwhile, Zoya appeared from the clothing store with several dresses she had tried on. "Mom, lo

At 15, my twin daughters have grown into beautiful girls with unique personalities. Zara, always cheerful and full of energy, often becomes the center of attention. Meanwhile, Zoya, who is quieter and more introspective, has a charm of her own that makes many want to get to know her better.As we sat together in the living room, Zara suddenly broke the silence. "Mom, there's a boy who's been approaching me," she said, her face flushing red. I could see how nervous she was, but there was also a sparkle of happiness in her eyes. "He's nice, but I'm confused, Mom. What should I do?"I smiled, feeling proud yet worried. "Zara, you don't have to rush. Try to get to know him better. The most important thing is that you feel comfortable and safe with him," I replied, recalling my own teenage years.Zara n
Ariane’s POV We immediately began planning every detail. Rani took out her phone and started recording our voices, while Mark and I prepared the tools we would need. We knew our time was limited. The full moon would reach its peak in a few hours, and we had to be ready.As the night grew late, we moved toward the location we had chosen. It was an open field surrounded by tall trees. From there, we could see the full moon clearly, and Leon would not be able to hide from its light.When we arrived at the field, the atmosphere felt tense. Rani set her phone on one side, while Mark and I prepared on the other. We waited with bated breath, hoping our plan would succeed.Not long after, we heard heavy footsteps approaching.

Ariane’s POV Mark paused for a moment, looking at me with eyes full of determination. "We will prepare. We have strength and support from our pack members. We will not let Leon take over."Hearing his words made me feel a little calmer. However, the fear of what might happen in the future couldn’t fully dissipate. Leon was a cunning enemy, and I knew he wouldn’t hesitate to use any means to achieve his goals.The following days were filled with preparations. Mark and I worked together with the other pack members to strengthen our defenses. We held regular meetings, discussing strategies and how to face Leon if he returned. Every night, I stayed awake, listening for sounds outside, hoping no one would approach.When the full moon shone brightly, I felt tension in the air. Mark and I stood on a hilltop, watching our territory. "I can feel something," I said, my voice shaking. "It seems he’s getting close."Mark nodded, his face serious. "We nee

Ariane’s POVThey resembled wolves but had human bodies. “Let me go!” I cried, but unfortunately, they didn’t listen and took me to prison. How shocked I was to find that it was Leon, my ex-husband, who had done all this to me. Mark, my husband, would certainly be worried about me right now.I woke up in darkness, the cold walls surrounding me sending chills down my spine. The rumbling sounds outside my cell reminded me of my father, the late King Alpha. The memory of our last meeting was still fresh in my mind, when he hugged me and promised to always protect me. But now he was gone, and I was trapped in a worse situation.“Leon,” I whispered, the name of my former husband who had now become an enemy. He was someone I once loved, but now he was the traitor who had betrayed my family. Why was he doing this? Why had he brought me here?I tried to struggle, but the bindings on my hands were too tight. Footsteps approached, and the cell door creaked open.
