Kayla's POV"Madam, madam! Alpha has given orders, and without his command, you cannot... madam!"Intense arguing woke me from my slumber. Before I could grasp what was happening outside the room, a middle-aged, elegantly dressed woman stormed into my bedroom, her face seething with anger."It's you again, Kayla Reeves! How long are you going to cling to my son!"I held my head, struggling to sit up in bed."You...""You? You should address me as 'madam' properly!"The middle-aged woman glared at me, her contemptuous gaze accusing me of being impolite."Alright, madam, who are you, and why did you barge into my room?""Are you trying to play dumb with me? Ha!"The middle-aged woman cast a disdainful glance at me, then yelled angrily."Don't play the innocent with me, Kayla! Remember, there's no such thing as 'your room' here! Because this villa belongs to me! I am Blair Morris, Harrison's mother! The former Alpha's Luna!"As I looked at Blair's fierce expression, a familiar image sudd
Harrison’s POVI had assumed that my interactions with Daisy had been sufficient to reveal the truth to her at some point. However, in reality, after Daisy learned about her parentage from the argument that day, I was uncertain about how to approach her. Surprisingly, she remained the same after finding out the truth. She greeted me as politely as ever, just like before. But she never addressed me as "Dad."This perplexed me. While I was the most powerful Alpha, the one to be revered and feared by everyone as the dominator, I was, at my first attempt at being a father, feeling somewhat lost. Being a father was much more challenging than being an Alpha.I had spent several sleepless nights, rehearsing the conversation with Daisy in my head. But every time I saw her, the words eluded me.One day, as I arrived at the mansion to visit Kayla as usual, she smiled at me and said, "You should have a one-on-one conversation with Daisy, Harrison. Although Daisy has been well-behaved, I know tha
Kayla’s POV"Wait, Harrison, I don't understand what you mean."I gazed into Harrison's serious eyes, sorting through my thoughts."Are you saying that the moonstone my mother gave me, which is supposed to be a symbol of The Dark Night Pack Alpha, originally belonged to your father?""Yes. So I need you to tell me where that moonstone is now. And what does the letter from your mother say?""I..."I covered my head, momentarily unable to accept such a complex revelation."That wooden box has been in the closet in my bedroom. It should still be in Westminster...""Rick!"Before I could finish my sentence, Harrison had already called his Beta, waiting outside."Immediately go to the Westminster villa, find the wooden box from the bedroom closet. This process must not have any mistakes, understood?""Yes, Alpha!"Rick vanished from my sight with a quick step."But I still don't understand, Harrison. According to what you said, if the moonstone symbolizes the authority of The Dark Night Pa
Kayla's POVUnder my continuous pleading, Harrison finally agreed to let me lead the interrogation of Luisa. To accommodate my injuries, Harrison had Martin take Luisa from the dungeon into the central villa.In this manner, with Luisa in chains and walking with heavy steps, she appeared disheveled before me. Compared to her previous arrogance and defiance, the new version of Luisa was sullen, almost unrecognizable."You didn't expect to see me again, did you?"As my words fell, Luisa lifted her head and glanced at me, her tone very matter-of-fact."Well, you're still alive.""You sound rather disappointed.""No, Kayla. In fact, I'm happier than anyone else that you're still alive."Luisa curled her lips slightly, emitting a cold laugh."Only with you alive do my daughter Rebecca and I have any hope of avoiding a death sentence.""If you knew that being involved in my death would lead to such consequences, why did you deliberately lure me to the back of the mountain?""Well, because,
Harrison’s POVThe war that led to my father's death was incredibly brutal. Most of the warriors my father trusted had lost their lives in that battle. Only Simon Russell managed to survive, and his face bore an indelible scar from the conflict. The enemy had mistaken him for dead, preserving his life."Russell, I hope you can recount the circumstances surrounding my father's death, leaving no details out. Can you do this for me?"I visited Russell's home with Rick and questioned him directly about the events from those years."Of course."Russell, like a dedicated soldier, started to recount those bloody memories with a serious expression."It was a turbulent time when the entire werewolf world was in chaos. While other packs constantly fought for territory and resources, your father initiated a proposal for peace with all the packs.""At the time, The Dark Night Pack was prospering through financial means. Despite differing viewpoints, the Alphas from other packs willingly agreed to
Kayla’s POVListening to Harrison's account of what happened back then left me terrified."So, my father was also involved in that Alpha meeting, and he even conspired with others to plot the murder of your father...""That's right. Adding to what Luisa said, I speculate that, as part of the conspiracy, after my father's death, Alexander obtained a significant fortune. However, beyond that, he didn't gain any power."Compared to my fear and unease, Harrison appeared calm. But that calmness reminded me of the calm before a storm."Alexander might have considered using the Moonstone to fulfill his dream of becoming Alpha of The Dark Night Pack. That's why he stole the Moonstone. But because the Moonstone shattered, along with the other Alphas' alliance with the Elder Council to strip The Dark Night Pack of the right to choose a new Alpha, that completely shattered Alexander's dream. Hence, he believed those so-called allies had betrayed him.""So, my mother..."The truth was right in fr
Kayla’s POVWhen Harrison declared war on The Obsidian Pack as the Alpha of The Dark Night Pack, the entire world of werewolves was thrown into shock. Television, radio, the internet—almost everywhere was discussing the war and the war's slogan: revenge.I hadn't entered the frontline of the war, but I was still on edge all day, fearing that something would happen to Harrison in the battle.Finally, on the third day after the declaration of war, Harrison, covered in blood, brought Alexander before me."Are you okay, Harrison?"I paid no attention to the already limp Alexander on the ground and anxiously rushed toward Harrison, who was covered in blood, continually checking with my eyes if he had any injuries."Don't worry, I'm fine," Harrison reassured me as he pressed me onto the couch. "You know, facing someone like him, I don't even need to use force. This isn't my blood."Harrison took off his bloodied clothes, throwing them aside with disdain. "Take them out and burn them.""Yes,
Kayla's POV"So, Olivia used your stepmother to deceive you into going to the back of the mountain, and then she pushed you off the cliff? And your stepmother told you that your father, Alexander, was the one who killed your mother?"Amber looked at me, her face now wearing an expression of jaw-dropping astonishment."That's about the gist of it," I replied, strangely calm despite Amber's shock."In fact, over the years, Alexander has done many unforgivable things, but I always forgave him in my heart because he was my father. Now that I know the truth about him killing my mother, I finally have enough reason to convince myself to hate him. Strangely, this hatred has made my heart feel lighter.""Oh, my poor Kayla."After hearing my words, Amber hugged me, my heart aching, and only let go after a while."What about Harrison? I heard Peter mention that he waged a war against The Obsidian Pack under the pretext of 'revenge.' Was that also to avenge your mother?""No, Amber. That's a dif
