The following day, Luna Viviana and Mia leave the mansion accompanied by the two guards. They went to the café to meet with the realtor and proceeded to the beachfront property for sale.
The three properties were just a few minutes' drive from each other.
They checked out the first property. The bungalow house was cozy and with a nice view of the beach.
They headed to the next property. A ten-minute drive from the first house.
They exited their vehicle and entered the two-story modern white house. The interior of the house was spacious, with marbled tiles, cozy bedrooms, clean bathrooms, an elegant living room and a shiny kitchen. A turquoise-looking pool at the back of the house completes the magnificent property.
The house has a balcony and porch facing the beach. A perfect place to hang out, drinking coffee or wine while reading a book, waiting for the sun to set on the horizon.
The long stretch of powdery white sand beach is a feast for the eyes. A paradise for nature lovers.
The house was surrounded by palm trees, adding allure to the beach house.
"I love this property!" Luna Viviana gushed. She already feels at home in the house.
"Yes, I love it as well. Perfect for you!" Mia said in a thrilled voice.
Luna Viviana addressed the realtor. "How much is the selling price of this property?" she asked.
"It's valued at $11 million, but if you pay the owner cash he will sell it to you for $10 million," the realtor replied.
"I'll take it! This property is mine. Take it off the market right away," Luan Viviana told the realtor.
"Copy, Luna Viviana. The owner will give you five days to come up with the cash payment for the property," the realtor explained.
"No problem. My husband will take care of it," Luna Viviana said. "Wait, how about all the appliances and furniture here? Not part of the selling price?" she asked.
The realtor shook her head. "No, Luna. But if you are willing to pay $11 million in cash, then all the furniture and appliances here are part of the package."
"Ah, I see," she pondered for a moment, then said, "Alright, I'll pay $11 million so all the appliances and furniture can stay," Luna Viviana said.
"Great!" The realtor said, beaming brightly, happy about the sale.
Luna Viviana sought Mia's opinion, "What do you think of the appliances and furniture?"
"The furniture is amazing. They suit the house well. The modern appliances look brand new, perfect for the house. No need to shop for furniture to fill this house. You can relocate here anytime, and you don't have to worry about anything. This house is already complete and ready for occupancy," Mia commented.
"Alright, I'll relocate to this house next week," Luna Viviana said. "You and your husband can visit me here anytime. You can stay in the guest room upstairs," she offered.
"Wow! I love it. I would love to visit you here more often. This place is like paradise on earth. The beach itself is breathtaking!" Mia said in delight.
"Yeah. A perfect place to raise my baby and forget the pain of my broken marriage," Luna Viviana said sorrowfully.
Mia sighed. "This place is a perfect place to start a new life. Right?" she reminded her, cheering her up, rubbing her back gently.
Luna Viviana smiled. "Of course, this place is perfect for me, so I can start a new phase in my life with a clean slate."
"Yes it is!" Mia said cheerily.
They lingered in the house for another twenty minutes, touring the whole property one more time, then they finally left. The realtor returned to her office.
Luna Viviana dropped Mia at her house. Then she and her bodyguard returned to the mansion.
When she arrived at the mansion, she went straight to her husband's office and put the folder containing all the details of the beach house property including the business card of the owner on Alpha Callum's desk. "This is the beachfront property I want you to buy for me. It will cost you $11 million, complete with furniture and appliances. The owner's business card and photos of the house are inside the folder."
"OK. I'll check it," Alpha Callum replied calmly. He didn't flinch at the $11 million price tag.
"The owner expects us to pay for the property in cash within 5 days. I want to relocate to my new house next week. I also needed two servants to accompany and serve me in my new house. Any objections?" she asked.
"No objection. I'll give you two bodyguards to accompany you to the beach for your protection," Alpha Callum responded quickly.
"Fine with me," Luna Viviana said and left the room.
Alpha Callum inspected the contents of the folder in silence while Beta Amir was silently waiting for instructions at his desk.
After a few minutes of inspecting photos of the house and the entire property, Alpha Callum talked to his assistant. "Let's check out the property Viviana wants to buy," he said, standing up.
"Okie Dokie!" Beta Amir quickly rose to his feet.
The two men left the room, exited the house and got into a car waiting in the driveway. Alpha Callum gave the property's address to Beta Amir.
A few minutes later, the car can be seen moving on the highway, traveling towards the outskirts of the city.
After half an hour's drive, they reached the property. They exited the vehicle and began their tour of the property.
"Wow, white beach!" Beta Amir exclaimed in delight. He looked at the magnificent blue ocean for a few minutes, admiring the breathtaking view of the sea. "I feel like I want to take a swim in the blue ocean right now," he joked. He looked heavenward. "Blue sky, sunny weather, blue sea, dotted with palm trees. This place is amazing!"
Alpha Callum agreed. "Indeed, this place boasts a fantastic view of the ocean. Perfect for relaxing and self-healing."
"So, will you buy it, Alpha?" Beta Amir asked.
Alpha Callum nodded his head. "Yes, I'll buy this place for Viviana and our baby," he said with finality in his voice.
The men checked the front and back of the property. Everything looks great. They can't enter the house because they don't have the key.
"I would like to see the interior of the house," Beta Amir said excitedly, as if he would purchase the house himself.
"You will see the interior of the house on the day Viviana brings her stuff here," Alpha Callum replied.
"I can't wait!" Beta Amir grinned.
The men stayed in the property for twenty minutes then left afterward, heading back to the mansion to contact the owner to discuss the sale of the property.
After arriving at the mansion, Alpha Callum contacted the owner, and they discussed the sale of the beach house.
The owner wants $6 million wired to his bank account and then $5 million delivered to his office in cash. The owner is a wealthy business tycoon who just recently dabbled in real estate, buying and selling beach house properties across the country.
Alpha Callum agreed to the owner's request, and they will meet in three days to close the deal.
Three days later, Alpha Callum and the owner met and concluded the successful sale of the beach house property.
Luna Viviana felt sad and depressed as the days of her departure from the mansion were numbered.
A week later, Viviana was done packing her things and the servants had already put all her stuff in her car and other things in the van.She went to her husband's office to say goodbye. But he was not there. "Where is he?" she asked his beta."Alpha told me he would visit you tomorrow at the beach house," Beta Amir replied.Viviana bit her lip. "It's my last day here, and he doesn't want to see me? How cruel," she commented bitterly.Beta Amir scratched his head. "Um, he instructed me to accompany you to your new house today.""OK," she said sadly. "When are you going to release to the public my joint statement with my husband that we are divorcing amicably?""Tomorrow afternoon as per your instructions, Luna," Beta Amir replied."From now on, stop calling me Luna. You will have a new Luna soon," Viviana corrected him. She felt a sharp pain in her heart after saying it. She finally came to terms that she was no longer the Luna of their pack. She lost power and authority."OK, as you s
Alpha Callum groaned. As much as he didn't want to prolong Viviana's madness, he was also aware that she was struggling to accept the reality of her current situation. Now that the dust had settled, and she was no longer the high and mighty Luna Viviana of the Savage Howl Pack, her world crumbled around her, making her depressed, weak and emotional.It must be very difficult for her to accept the changes happening at once.He allowed her to cry in his arms as much as she wanted, and rubbed her back gently, comforting her. Despite the millions she got from him, she was still not happy at all. She might be starting to regret her actions after trying to act brave and cool in handling the divorce."Hubby, I regret divorcing you. Take back everything you gave me. I just want us to be together as husband and wife again," she said between tears, sobbing hard in his arms, clinging to him like she was drowning in the ocean of her misery.At that very moment, Alpha Callum felt guilty. He was th
The following day, the newspaper reached the masses, announcing to the public the divorce between Alpha Callum and Luna Viviana of the Savage Howl Pack. The news took everyone by surprise, reaching far and wide.After reading the joint statement between the ex-couple, people from all walks of life began gossiping about the real reason why the legal separation of the powerful couple took place.Meanwhile, in the beach house, Viviana was crying her heart out while reading the news. Today she was officially a nobody in her ex-husband's life.Mia rubbed her friend's back, comforting her. "Shh, don't take it too hard. Just be glad that it's over now. You can finally begin a new life with your baby in your womb. Days will pass by, and the people will forget what happened. They will easily move on from one news story to another."Enraged, Viviana threw the newspaper on the floor.Mia sighed. She picked up the newspaper and dropped it in the trash can where it should belong so it could no lon
Clarice shook her head. "No. As much as I wanted to kill them with my hands to take revenge for the suffering they put me through, I didn't want to do it during my wedding. I want my wedding to be a happy and memorable occasion not only for us but for everyone. I'm not planning to ruin my wedding with bloody vengeance. As long as the Moon Goddess grants me lifetime happiness with you and our son, I'm willing to forget revenge. That's all I really want for myself right now..."Alpha Callum smiled and planted a kiss on her lips. "As long as we continue to love each other and stay true to each other, we will get all the happiness we deserve in this lifetime."Clarice smiled and hugged him tightly. "No matter what happens in the future, don't ever change, okay?"Alpha Callum nodded his head. "Of course, I will never change. I will always be here for you," he responded lovingly.The couple continued cuddling on the bed, discussing their wedding in detail.That night, Alpha Callum slept in
The day has finally arrived. Alpha Callum finally brings home his beloved family, Clarice and Caden, to the mansion to start a new life with them.Alpha Callum ordered the cook to prepare delicious dishes for the special occasion. Grandpa Eliezer, Marina and Carlos were also present on the occasion.At lunchtime, they gathered around the table in the dining room, filled with delicious dishes.Alpha Callum picked up his wine glass and said, "Cheers to a new beginning!"Everyone held their wine glasses high and replied cheerily, "Cheers!""Enjoy the dishes, guys," he said, acting as a perfect host for his guests.Clarice grinned in elation. Seeing her loved ones gathered around the table made her heart swell with happiness. Tears of happiness filled her eyes. She blinked twice. She can't cry. This is such a special occasion, she can't ruin this event by becoming emotional. She wants to embed this wonderful moment in her memories.She relishes the moment, loving everything that is happen
Six months later.One week before the wedding, Clarice was busy double-checking the wedding preparations, so nothing could go wrong on her special day. Aside from the excitement of the anticipation of her second wedding, there was also anxiety growing in her heart.Was she wrong about inviting her ex-husband and her despicable former best friend Aurelia to her wedding?But she could no longer change anything because the wedding invitations had already been sent to the leaders of the pack one month in advance.Well, they couldn't possibly identify her as the old Clarice because she would be wearing a short wig different from her original hair color and length. Then she will wear contact lenses to hide the real color of her eyes.She already had a plan to alter her physical appearance, so nobody could associate her old appearance with her new one. She even practiced a new voice tone, and to make her disguise even more effective, she will be wearing a stylish face veil fit for the occasi
It had been five hours since Viviana left the mansion, but Clarice still couldn't bring herself to open the gift that Viviana left behind.When Alpha Callum finally arrived early in the evening at 6:00 p.m. at the mansion, Clarice informed him about Viviana."Your ex-wife came here and gave me a wedding gift. She bitterly told me that you didn't invite her to our wedding, so she came here to personally hand me over her wedding gift. That's her gift," she said, pointing to the gift on the tabletop.Alpha Callum's forehead furrowed while looking at the gift. "What's inside the box?" he asked.Clarice shrugged. "I don't know. I haven't opened it yet," she replied nervously."I'll open it for you," Alpha said, and walked to the table. He picked up the box and opened it. He examined the contents. "It's just baby clothes," he said, and picked up the small card with a handwritten message on it.Clarice scanned the contents of the box for a brief second, then took the card and read the handwr
~Wedding Day~On the day of the wedding, Alpha Callum and Clarice woke up early in the morning, gazing into each other's eyes."Our day has finally come," he said softly, cupping her face lovingly as he planted a kiss on her lips."The beginning of our lives as husband and wife for the rest of our lives starts today," she said happily.The couple embraced each other. Their hearts were overflowing with love and happiness for each other."Everything is taken care of. The only thing we need to do is show up to the wedding venue, go through the wedding ceremony, entertain the guests and then rest afterward. Right?" she said."Yes. The wedding starts at 3:00 in the afternoon. So, after breakfast we will start our journey to the venue and arrive there at 10:00 or 11:00. We have enough time to prepare for the afternoon wedding," he replied."Alright, let's start our day now. I'm excited!" she grinned happily."Okie Dokie," he replied in elation."Hooray! It's our wedding day!" The couple sai
She was transported back in time when she was alone sitting on the sun lounger, enjoying the lovely night, waiting for her husband to arrive with their coffee.Then came the stranger, intentionally dropping his wallet on the floor and her nightmare began...Clarice felt her heart beat frantically when she realized that the stranger was no other than Kaspar. He took her off guard, froze her and lifted her body, throwing her into the water without mercy. When she hit the water she thought she would die. She can't do anything to help herself.She screamed, trying to ask for help, but no sound came out of her mouth. She felt her body falling deeper into the water, but to her surprise she resurfaced in the water again and, out of the corner of her eyes, she saw the cruise ship sailing away without her.Nobody saw her when she fell into the water. No one could help her, even her husband.Horrified by her hopeless situation, she will die alone in the freezing water. Her dead body will be eat
A thousand miles away on a secluded island far from the city and towns, Clarice was wide awake, sitting on her bed in total darkness. She trembled in fear when the door opened. The light coming from outside flooded the dark room.There she is...Demetria, the bloodthirsty vampire, enters the room to feed on her blood again.Clarice trembled in fear. This vampire will feed on her blood again and again, leaving her fearing for her life. She fears that one day she will die and never be able to escape this room alive because this vampire will drain her body dry.Although Demetria saved her from drowning in the dark ocean, she was also feeding on her blood thrice a week.Demetria snapped her hand and light flooded the room. "How are you today, dear?" she asked, coming closer."Please let me go home. My husband and my son are worried about me. They think I have died. Please set me free," Clarice begged desperately, tears flooding her eyes."Dear, I just want to let you know that your husban
Two months later...The distraught Alpha Callum arrives at his Grandpa's farm, broken hearted."Gramps, I don't know if I still continue searching for Clarice in the ocean. We still can't find her no matter how hard we try," he said miserably."I know, son, it's very tough on your part. I wish I could help you. I'm also sad and devastated by Clarice's disappearance. You have already run a missing person ad in every major newspaper in the whole country but no one has found Clarice's body yet. The worst thing I can think of is the reason why we can't find her body is because some sharks found her first and we both know what it means." Grandpa Eliezer said sadly, patting his grandson's shoulder to comfort him.Alpha Callum wept quietly. "I don't know if she's already dead or alive. If she drowns, I just want to find her body and give her a proper burial. Is that so much to ask?" he asked dejectedly.Grandpa Eliezer sighed heavily. Watching the misery in his grandson's eyes filled his hea
Kaspar finished his one-week-long holiday on the cruise ship, making sure that Clarice is already buried in the deep ocean with no chance of coming back to the land of the living.He watched in satisfaction as Alpha Callum desperately searched every room and cabin to find his beloved wife. But he failed to find her.Kaspar was lucky that heaven favored him because the CCTV camera in the couple's favorite spot malfunctioned on the same day he succeeded in completing his evil plan.Since no evidence can point to him as the culprit of Clarice's disappearance, he enjoyed his remaining days on the cruise ship, unbothered.Aurelia and Viviana were ecstatic after he informed them that Clarice was finally gone and would never come back again. He told them that Clarice drowned in the deep ocean and her body had probably been eaten already by sharks and other dangerous animals inhabiting the deep blue sea.Carrying his travel luggage, he left the ship in high spirits, happy with his accomplishm
Alpha Callum arrives at an empty farm house. No one was around, so he put his bags in the corner and settled on the sofa, waiting for his grandfather to arrive.While waiting, he re-imagined what happened to his holiday vacation with his wife on the cruise ship.No matter what others said, he didn't believe Clarice had jumped into the ocean willingly. Someone had thrown her into the water. His wife was happy with him. She would never resort to suicide because they were blessed with a loving and peaceful marriage and had a son together.After searching the ship from top to bottom, he finally gave up on his suspicion that Clarice had caught a serial killer's attention and was abducted on board.Clarice definitely fell in the water because there was no way she could vanish from the cruise ship without leaving any trace behind.He was in deep thoughts when the door opened and Grandpa Eliezer entered the house. He was surprised to see Alpha Callum in his house looking distraught. He knew i
He couldn't stand the tense silence anymore. The agony of losing his wife was creating havoc in his system, making him desperate. It's either Clarice fell into the water or she was held captive by someone and held in their cabins.He needed to know what truly happened to her, or he would go crazy.He left the room and went to find the captain of the cruise ship."I want to find my wife. I want to know if there is a killer on the loose boarding this ship, or if she has fallen into the sea. I want clear answers!" he demanded angrily.The captain fell silent for a moment, then spoke, "What do you want to do, sir?""I want to search every single room on this ship to make sure no one is keeping my wife in his or her room. That's the only way I can be assured that she was not taken advantage of and not imprisoned in someone's room and held against her will," he said accusingly.The captain scratched his head in dismay. "Um, I have to warn you, sir. Not everyone will allow their rooms to be
Days passed by quickly.On the fourth day of the couple's wedding anniversary, they had a romantic candle-lit dinner inside their suite and made love all night long.On the 5th day, the couple spends their time in the pool area of the cruise ship and enjoys the jacuzzi along with other couples.They watched skaters on the skating rink for one hour. They also tried bumper cars, bikes high above the ship, and skydiving simulators. Then they proceeded to try a roller coaster ride, took the plunge and loved the adrenaline-pumping, exhilarating experience.They were having so much fun.The couple also went to watch a show in the theater.That night, the couple watched movies in their room and after finishing watching the movies, they left their suite and went to their favorite spot to enjoy the lovely night.They settled comfortably in the sun lounger and admired the star-filled sky."I want to drink chocolate coffee," Clarice said.Alpha Callum stood up. "Alright, let's go and buy coffee.
In his room on the second deck of the cruise ship, Kaspar put blue eye contact lenses in his eyes. Next, he picked up the black curly wig and placed it securely on his head. After a few minutes of fixing his appearance in the mirror, he was finally satisfied.Even if he bumps into the couple, they can't easily recognize him because his disguise looks authentic. As long as he doesn't talk to them face to face, his charade won't be discovered. Clarice may remember his original voice, but if they accidentally bump into each other with no choice, he will just use a fake voice to talk to her.For now, he would just follow the couple around at a safe distance. He doesn't want them to notice that he is following their every movement.He preferred to throw Clarice into the sea if he spotted her alone without her husband around.Putting poison in her food would be difficult because that would need perfect execution and her husband was always around to complicate things, and he had no weapon th
Days pass quickly.The day has finally come for the couple to embark on their one-week cruise ship holiday.The couple bid goodbye to their son Caden, Beta Amir and Lorey."We will bring you along next time, son," Alpha Callum said, planting a kiss on his son's head, ruffling his hair affectionately.Clarice hugged her son tightly, kissing his cheeks lovingly. "I'm going to miss you baby. I love you so much. See you soon!" she said teary-eyed."I love you Mommy and Daddy. Enjoy sailing on the ship," Caden replied, smiling brightly.Alpha Callum gives last minute instructions to his assistant, Beta Amir. "If something comes up, call me right away or send me a message on my email. Alternately, seek Grandpa's help. Do you understand?" he said.Beta Amir nodded his head. "Copy, Alpha. Rest assured I will take care of everything while you are away. You and your wife deserve a fabulous break away from home. Enjoy sailing on a ship."After the couple finished saying their goodbyes, they boar
