IAN"Why can't you give good news?" I gritted my teeth as I gripped the paper tighter, crumpling it in my hand. I didn't care if I couldn't read what was on the page again. One time reading was enough to let rage rise inside my body."I-I'm sorry, Alpha. I-I will try harder." The female before me st
"But-"My Beta continued before I burst into anger. "I already ask the rogue if we probably need their help. As long as we provide them with free weapons, they will cooperate with us.""Free weapon? Are they crazy?" I growled. There was nothing free in this world. And she-wolves were part of the exch
CARLATwo days had passed, and it was a blessing. My fear that Zurin's people wouldn't accept me, or worst, hate me, didn't come true. Instead, they were curious about me and even visited the pack house. They wanted to know me better.Like now.I went to the garden because a few people were already
My heart thumped loudly. Who wanted to talk to me? I never had someone to ask for me except Ian. But it was impossible he was calling the pack house. It was like challenging Zurin directly. And Zurin definitely wouldn't relay the news and let me talk to him.Then who?'Who?''A female name Tricia. S
CARLA"Hello." Someone from the other side picked up the phone, and a smile instantly graced my lips. I knew the voice well."Tricia?" Still, I wanted to ensure she was really the person I was looking for."Carla?" she asked back with the same intonation."Yes. This is Carla." I couldn't help my eye
"Which means our people didn't. Am I right?"Straight to the point. Most of them didn't even care about my presence."Stop. Don't answer that." She stated, preceding me from voicing my thought. "I don't want to hear it because I already know the answer."I smiled weakly. It was apparent, wasn't it?
ZURIN"Are you sure those are good enough?" Her sweet voice broke the silence as our car approached Blood Moon Pack's territory.Yes. We were going to Eliot's baby shower, and my beautiful mate prepared a gift for their future baby. We hadn't known the gender yet, so Carla decided on newborn clothes
"The man standing in the center is Toby." Her voice was trembling when uttering those words.My gaze returned ahead, and she was right. There was a man standing between the wolves, and he was smirking at us disgustingly.I thought I knew who they were. Carla recognized them only meant one thing. The
"Hm." He copied his sister, but it didn't take long as he continued. "I want banana pancake with chocolate syrup."I nodded in agreement. The choice wasn't bad, though."Cherry, are you okay if we have a banana pancake and chocolate syrup for breakfast?" I offered my daughter since she had yet to ma
FOUR YEARS LATERZURINThe sound of waves was entering my hearing, pulling me slowly from my sleep. But warmth in my arms and sparks traveling throughout my body lured me to return to the comfortable place. I wanted to suck it longer. As long as possible.However, my body seemed not in synchrony. It
"Zurin!"--"Your bonds are sealed, and now I announce both of you as mates, the Alpha and Luna of Wild Fire Pack. May Goddess bless you with goodness and protect your bonds from any threat." The elder finished giving the blessings, which were instantly welcomed by applauses. It was from our guests,
FOUR MONTHS LATERTHE LUNA CEREMONYCARLAI looked at the reflection in the giant mirror in front of me. It is literally giant since we have to glue it to the wardrobe door, so it also reflects our bedroom, where I found my mate standing far behind and observing me."Are you satisfied with the sight
"What about this? You keep the gift for now and give it to us at the Luna Ceremony or the closest event." Zurin suggested, and I bobbed my head immediately."Zurin is right. You can give it to us at the ceremony." I repeated as if confirming it was my final decision.Thankfully, she understood. Othe
CARLADays went by swiftly. We were moving on, and it was in a positive way because I saw our people helping each other, like cooking a lot of food and bringing it to barrack or camp to support warriors and to help the houses without parents, taking care of pups, and more. It made the gloomy days va
Thus, I told Alpha Tom I was going to make her focus on training and studying. She once said she wanted to stand by my side in a battle, so I planned to make her the best female warrior. However, if she suddenly changed her dream—as it was normal that pup changed their dreams—I would ensure she woul
ZURINA week went by swiftly. We had been returning to daily activities, discussing Luna Ceremony preparation, and more. The point was that we were moving on for the better.The Alphas brought their Lunas to visit our pack house. They came to check on my mate and the pack. It made her happy, and the
"How? I mean, why? Don't they deserve it?"He smiled, his hand going to my face. "Yes. I know. But love can make someone go blind and shove their rationality away. Do you remember your earliest days here? I was trying to have you by any means, including closing my eyes on Ian's dirty work. I did not
