The moment Robert sees Bruce standing in the living room of his home, the happiness of succeeding in chasing his most worshiped star surges in his heart, making his brain dizzy.The Alpha is his age! But they have never been in the same circle, of course.Bruce has excelled in sports and grades ever since he was a child. He even skipped grades in middle school twice and entered college early. After entering college, he began to participate in the affairs of the pack and his family, and was praised by everyone as the most reliable new generation leader of the pack.Robert has always been the loser of the family. His abilities are limited and his will is even more limited. His ideal life is to lie under the care of their family and be a happy dandy.But being a dandy doesn't mean that he won't envy those who excellent, especially this person who is only a few years older than him and has a halo all over his body. Who is so much more better than him in every way.Therefore, he has always
At three or four o'clock in the afternoon, the streets of Maple Wood were very quiet.In a dark gray casual clothes, Mia has a big hoodie covering her head and face. She steps on a skateboard and slides lightly into the community street.She disguises herself as a leisurely pedestrian, skateboarding and looking at the scenery, as if she just came out of the neighborhood next door to play for a while and accidentally wandered here.But in fact, she had a clear goal - turning right from the second fork in the main street, and the penultimate house was Clint Wood's home.After that extremely tiring night, Mia had a good sleep, woke up and thought for a long while, then decided to go to the gym and use a set of high-intensity equipment to force herself to regain her energy.Exercise is good medicine. Sweating not only gets you pretty muscles, but also makes you forget what you should forget and regain your perseverance.When doing pull-ups, presses, and squats, she strengthened her determ
Mia stands in front of the Wood's house, raises her left hand and presses it on the door.The door lock is a newly replaced electronic lock, which can be unlocked by password or fingerprint.Robert mentioned something about the lock, and Mia is prepared. She takes out a cable from her pocket, connects it to her phone, opens an unlocking tool she bought at a high price, and waits patiently.A few minutes later, three beeps followed by a mechanical hum. With a click, the door opens.Mia takes a deep breath and presses the door handle.It was very dark inside the door, as if the Wood family has closed all the curtains before going out.In order to see clearly what’s going on inside, she pushes the door open a little, opens her eyes wide, and walks in.The curtains are indeed closed, and as she knew, the living room is empty.She hesitates whether to turn around and fumble for the light switch or to go straight into the living room and open the curtains.At this moment, a figure quickly a
Bruce has never seen Mia like this.Her eyes filled with confusion and fear, as well as a hint of despair.Before the accident, Mia was nothing but pure and clean. She was kind and gentle, and although she sometimes looked like a carefully crafted doll, she was always smiling and her eyes were always bright.After a year's absence, all Mia gave him has been a trace of her back. And that figure from behind is always full of energy, as if she alone can control the whole world.But now, all the life in her has disappeared.She seems to have turned into a butterfly trapped in a spider web, her soft wings struggling constantly, but losing more and more power.All because he has been trying to get close to her?This realization made Bruce's heart ache.He was looking forward to it with all his heart and tried his best to realize the reunion. But for Mia, is their relationship like a spider web, something that traps her and hurts her?Why did things become like this?!But even so, he refuses
Bruce, who doesn’t know what to say at first, became even more angry after hearing her muttering.He made many mistakes, but this was definitely not a mistake!"Ha!" For a moment, he almost laughed in anger.However, before he could respond, Mia takes a deep breath and con: "Why did you made me your Luna if you didn’t think I was worthy? I never wanted it."Not worthy? Who says she is not worthy?Bruce's pupils shrink, and he suddenly has a guess. He no longer hesitates, raises his voice and demands: "Who put this idea in your head?!"Mia obviously heard his question, but she doesn’t answer him. She just stops crying and looks at him blankly."Mia, tell me. Who planted this idea in your head?"The light in the house is dim. He could only vaguely see her general posture.When he couldn't hear the answer, he simply gives up on getting to the bottom of it: "I don’t care who said what. It’s not true. They are lying to you. No one thinks you are unworthy, you are my best match. We are mate
"Really? You don't know?"Bruce's anger did not subside because of Mia's withdrawal. His eyes penetrates the dim space, staring at her firmly, and he takes a heavy step forward: "Think carefully, and tell me your true feelings."While questioning, he walks towards Mia step by step.He walks slwoly, every step heavy and steady. His confidence and calmness give huge pressure on Mia."Tell me, do you really not want to be my Luna at all?" He asks, taking another step and getting closer to her. "Tell me the truth, once and for all. I have never forced you before, and I never will."That’s true.During the years they were husband and wife, they were completely respectful to each other. He would personally discuss with her in advance everything from invitations and procedures for attending public events to commemorative jewelry to be worn at a family dinner. Even for all intimate actions in private, he would first seriously ask: "Is it okay?"He knows how to respect people very much. And he
"Huh?"It’s so ridiculous that Mia doesn’t know whether she should yell or laugh.It has been more than a year since the incident happened, and everyone in the Duncan family is living well under his eyes.Now he wants to help her and take revenge on that family?Is it just to show that everything is just for her?This is too ridiculous!If he wanted to help her get revenge, what had he been doing for more than a year until now?Or is this a new way to deceive her?Whatbenefit could he possible gain by tricking her again?!She couldn't figure it out.This thought stirred her head into a much. She seriously begin to wonder if she had really forgotten something, likeif there was some big secret that the family hadn't had time to tell her, and it was worth Bruce's best efforts to take her
Bruce realizes for the first time that as long as Mia made up her mind, he couldn't really change her mind. He was afraid that he was too hard and hurt her, and he was also afraid that if he held on too tightly, she would show the same dissatisfied look as before. Their relationship is too fragile to withstand too many such dissatisfaction now. He observes her nervously, but he could only helplessly let her wrist slowly pull away from his hand. Finally, he took several deep breaths in succession, suppressed his emotions, and reluctantly accepted the result: "You don't have to come back, but let me help you." He is indeed the best alpha. After a few simple adjustments, he had broken away from the pitiful posture he had just revealed. This kind of resilience made Mia feel familiar and at ease. At the same time, she could see from his bright eyes again that this proposal was his bottom line. If she didn't agree, she might not be able to leave at all. "Okay. How can you help?" Mia
There is no one at "home".This is Bruce's habit. He only requires cleaning staff to come to the house once a week for cleaning, and a life assistant to deliver various items to the house in a timely manner according to his requirements, including food and ingredients. No other personnel are required.Therefore, the house is always quiet. It is an independent space that belongs entirely to the owner.In the past, when Mia was the real hostess here, she would often cook for herself and do some simply cleaning.She now uses half of the third floor of the house. She and Bruce are affectionate and sweet to the outside world, and behind closed doors, they are hosts and guests who have a cooperative relationship.Bruce took off his shoes, took off his suit jacket, and held it in his hands.Mia took off her shoes and followed in, and found several large cardboard boxes on the coffee table in the living room, and Bruce was already unpacking the boxes. His custom-made suit was thrown carelessl
After Bruce finished speaking, the eyes of everyone around him widened.The Duncan family has always enjoyed privileges in the pack. Before Mia returned to the pack, Elena regarded herself as the future Luna on many occasions. Those who didn't know the specific situation had seriously believed that the Duncan family would soon strengthen their ties with Alpha's family through marriage.After all, every core member of the Duncan family can see the alpha at any time. Who dares to say that the news they said about alpha is false?But now, the alpha tells Elena Duncan, the favorite youngest daughter of the Duncan family, that she has a problem with the way she addresses herself and Mia. This is telling everyone that the Duncan family, at least Elena, is not as important as they show.The crowd began to whisper again."If you insist, alpha." Elena emphasized the word "alpha", "But I thought we were friends. After all, we grew up together."Mia must admit that Bruce's appearance made this c
Mia's posture is very beautiful.Although her legs were a little weak after standing for a long time, her body also felt very tired. More importantly, the eyes that needed to be paid attention to all the time consumed a lot of her energy. But she controlled herself well.The appearance of Elena Duncan unexpectedly gave her some motivation.After surviving the nightmare memories, the flames of revenge burned brightly, and the enemy was right in front of her. Mia entered a fighting state both mentally and physically.The pressure of those glances and appraisals was no longer so noticeable.She rediscovered that feeling of being determined, clear-minded, and filled with strength. Her faith and confidence were stirred.If you can't even win this game, what's the point of revenge?Of course, the posture still needs to be beautiful enough. Posture is a very important part of revenge.That rhetorical question came out of such a Mia. In the face of provocation, smile gently and ask a question
The moment she stepped into the venue, Mia felt everyone's eyes on her. The eyes with various meanings, which were brighter than the magnificent lights in the hall, suddenly gathered together, making people dizzy for a moment.Breathe and calm down.She had almost forgotten the feeling of being watched. Bruce's palm helped her again, and she stabilized herself perfectly.Next, Bruce introduces everyone to her return to the pack, and then she has to accept people's genuine welcome and say a few words to announce her return."Good evening, friends."This time, she couldn't hide behind Bruce after a brief appearance like before, or even hide in a quiet corner. She had to meet those eyes head on and let them observe. And under their observation, she was saying what she wanted to say."I'm finally back in our warm pack. I'm really happy to see you here. The danger and wandering are over, and it will get better and better in the future.""The pain also made me realize that I was not a quali
The unfamiliar behavior pattern made Mia feel a little unease.But if she wants to take the initiative and have her own voice, she must learn how to get others to listen to her. The good news is that she has a Luna title, one that forces her command if she wants."Why would I?" Bruce raised his eyebrows, "On the contrary, I find it helpful to our plan."He said it sincerely. In fact, he only finds Mia cute when she raises her chin and gives orders. She is indeed fierce, yet she’s gentle to the world.The image of the young wolf overlapped her again.Mia raises an eyebrow.Since the conversation in the hotel, she had been testing Bruce's bottom line to see how far he would accept her capriciousness. There is no border in sight yet.He seems to be a little too indulging.She accepts his "Alert the enemy" plan.To put it simply, it was to announce her return to everyone. And she stands in Luna's position and openly causes trouble for the Duncan family, especially Elena Duncan. She wants
Half past four in the afternoon.The third floor of Creekview Manor is very lively.The door to the master's large lounge was open.The designer directs his assistant to take out one dress after another from the protective bag and hang it on the rack. There is a row of men and a row of women, with design elements and colors corresponding to each other. The jewelry box opened by the manor's butler himself, and sets of the owner's private jewelry were laid out, including pearls, diamonds, emeralds... all full of jewels.The makeup artist is opening the makeup box, taking out various cosmetics and placing them on the oversized dressing table. A complete set of makeup brushes, various colors of base makeup, eye shadow, highlighter, shadow...especially lipsticks and lip glosses with different textures and colors. There are hundreds of them on a shelf.The hairstylist took out a variety of tools, including combs, hair dryers, curling irons, nutrients, softeners, styling agents... hairpins o
An hour and a half passed very quickly.In a daze, Mia is not sure whether she got any sleep at all.She thought about Bruce's suggestion, one that he bothered to deliver through Sophia. He wants her to return to the pack and go back to be the Luna again. Mia tried to understand the value in this for Bruce. To no avail.That was where her thoughts got messy.She felt like she already left the hotel. As soon as she walked out of the door, she was forcibly dragged into a dark car. Her hands and feet were tied, her eyes were blindfolded, and the car was driven extremely bumpy. She was thrown in the back row, and her ribs hurt from the jolt.After a while, it seemed like she was following Bruce back home. As soon as she entered the door, she turned into a puppet. She could do nothing except follow instructions. Even her body turned into wood, and every movement was very stiff.Then, the alarm clock went off.Her head feels heavy, and there is a dry feeling everywhere from the chin up.Mia
"It’s confirmed that these people found you by following me today."Mia was stuck in her own head and can't get out. Her posture did not change for a long time, and she looked straight at Sophia's tablet screen, seemingly not seeing anything. That was when Bruce snapped her out of it with an out of nowhere statement."Although I don't know how Elena Duncan got the news about you coming back, I still have to take responsibility for what happened today." Bruce leans forward, and the distance between him and her suddenly shortens a lot. "There may be more people sent after you from the Duncan family. For safety reasons, it is better for you to accept the protection arranged by me. At least this is the case recently. What do you think?"Mia was woken up by his question and took a moment to figure out what he was suggesting, but found that she couldn't make any decision. She couldn't even think of one or two reasons to agree or refuse.Daisy stands up and shakes her hair: "Do you have any
Ha?It’s just out of nowhere. Is that a discussion, a request, or a notification?Mia was still in stress, and whenever Bruce touched her, she felt nervous all over.But the touch of the arm and elbow seems to be unimportant. More importantly, why would she go with him?She really needs a little support, so she doesn't pull away from him, but gently takes a small step to the side. The distance between the two widened, and she raises her head and looks back: "Why..."Her sudden stiff movement transmits to Bruce's fingertips through that little contact.A trace of regret flashed through his heart, he stabilize his image as an alpha, and shows concern in a restrained and polite manner: "Are you tired? Let's get in the car and sit down and talk?"Of course she is. The more relaxed the mood is, the clearer the feeling of fatigue becomes. The body first became weak and then became heavy. Mia could feel that she needed to work hard to stay awake and move around.She needs rest. But she wante
