"What are you thinking to focus on?" Brian hugs me from behind.I jerked back to reality; I immediately asked him what I was pondering in my heart these days. "Have you calculated how to deal with Richard's plot? He's a sinister man."In Brian's face, I couldn't find a hint of worry. Is he too confident or good at hiding his emotions? I sighed, worried, but he could smile freely and play with my hair. "Don't worry too much; leave that to me."I can't be as calm as he is, but I feel reassured in the face of Brian's certainty. I also had to put that aside, but suddenly remembering Elise and Richard's relationship, I felt a flutter in my heart.Finally, I couldn't help but say. "Sir Brian, I don't know if I should say this or not."Brian raised his eyebrows at me and then put on a calm face. "If you feel it should be said, say it; if it's unnecessary, don't."I'm speechless; why didn't I realize before that Brian had a remarkable ability to literally and figuratively silence people?Seei
Brian's POV:In my heart rose an invisible fear that I had never had before. I should be happy if Alpha Arnold died. He never really treated me, but it always hurts when I think about his ending. My heart felt like it was torn into pieces when I remembered his gaunt face.In the afternoon, Harvey and I went to visit him. The man who always stood at the top and carried the power is gone. Reality tells me he is a dying man, fighting daily with death.Why did he have such a tragedy? It was his own making, his betrayal, his cruelty, and his cold heart that led him down that deadlocked path. I should feel happy, not melancholy like I am right now, but I couldn't do it; the flesh of my heart seemed to have been mutilated with a hole, allowing the cold wind to blow in until the pain was numb.Luna Serena, Vyna, and Richard were there when I arrived. Their faces were all filled with sadness as if something terrible had happened, but I wondered how much truth was there. They would launch a cel
My conversation with Alpha Arnold ended when Vyna took care of him; even knowing the truth, Alpha still acted normal when he saw Vyna lift the soup bowl and shake his head. "I'm a bit tired today, so I don't want to eat; you put it aside first."Vyna's face is not good; her movements are unnatural. "Why can't you eat it? You are already very weak; how can you get healthy if you don't nourish yourself?"Alpha Arnold looked at her for a long time without saying a word, Vyna seemed to sense his strangeness as well, so her initial confidence disappeared, replaced by a flutter of anxiety.All her strangeness caught my eye. I didn't want to believe that Vyna would do this to Alpha Arnold because he could have been a terrible husband to my mother and an irresponsible father to me. However, for Vyna, he did everything he could to his ability, yet he was still sorry for her. He is too weak; between love and not love, between power and love, he wants to have it all; this makes two women miserab
Kelsey's POV:Recently, the weather has been very erratic; the morning has just been sunny, and raining in the afternoon. I looked at the clock; Brian had left the house more than four hours ago; he should have returned home by now.I tried calling him, but my reply was just a dry subscriber voice. I stood restlessly looking at the dark sky and finally decided to go out to find him. I covered my umbrella and quickly took the shortcut to the central building. This road was still in use before; many people passed by, but now it has been forgotten; almost no one remembers this dirt road inside the forest anymore.The rain slowed and stopped; I folded my umbrella and shook off my coat. As I raised my head, I caught sight of a familiar figure that gave me goosebumps. Richard was in a hurry; he ran and turned his head behind as if afraid of something.I gradually discovered something strange; the direction he was going was the direction away from the territory of the Blood Ocean. He could t
Richard approached, my whole body shaking.He squatted down in front of me and clicked his tongue in amusement. "Look, you've never looked at me like that before. Just following Brian for a while, soon forgot everything, now I will remind you a bit of the past."A slap like heaven landed on my cheek; the corners of my lips were immediately torn, and the color smell spreading in my mouth was disgusting. Richard lowered his head, lifted my chin, and looked at my lips without blinking. "It's stunning; I've seen you before; you're beautiful, and now it's even more beautiful."After saying that, he lowered his body and used his tongue to lick the blood on my lips with passionate eyes.I resisted vehemently, disgusted as his hand stroked my waist. I regret not being able to kill him right now. I struggled frantically, but Richard quickly controlled me with one hand. His knee rested on my thigh; his disgusting hand kept stroking my thigh.Every place he touched, I wanted to cut the meat ther
Looking into his eyes, I could only feel the deathly cold. Those weren't human eyes anymore; it was a demon's gaze.My body trembled, I fell behind, and I was exhausted and unable to transform into this state. What do I have to do to get out of here?Richard was about to do something, but suddenly, his action stopped. His face was filled with unease, and he looked out the cave door. He didn't hit me anymore but quickly carried me on his shoulder and ran away. Following that, I heard the sound of soldiers.Did someone come?"Help me! Please help me! Brian, I'm here!" I screamed when I smelled Brian; Oralie and I both felt him; he was very close to us.An angry Richard squeezed my mouth roughly and roared. "Shut up! What use do you call him? Do you think he'll get there in time to save you? Furthermore, he doesn't transform. Do you think he hit me back? It's funny when you put your hopes on a trash guy."I smiled faintly, gritting my teeth. "You've repeatedly lost the battle in his hand
Brian's back was straight, his eyes cold as he looked at Richard. "I'm already on my knees. Can you let her go?""Of course, but not right now." Richard shrugged with a smile. "No one would have thought that Alpha Arnold's pet son and Blood Ocean's most notorious warrior would have to kneel before me, right?""Let her go!" Brian didn't mind Richard's taunts but just looked at me with pain in his eyes. "My private matter with you; we will solve it together; don't drag other people into it."Richard grabbed my hair and pulled it up, looking me up and down fiercely. "She is your mate. How could it not have anything to do with her?""You're right; she's all I have. If you hurt a hair of hers, I will make you live worse than death." Brian said for sure.I was dumbfounded; my soul was swept away at that moment. I just stared at Brian and didn't hear anything. When Richard pulled me out, I just lazily followed him. I didn't know it; tears were falling down my face.I thought things would go
My heart skipped a beat; I had a strange premonition. I turned my head back to look for Brian's silhouette, but no one was there.'Could it be...' I turned around to see the black wolf that had just appeared again. It was about the same size as Richard's but much more beautiful than Richard's.'Kelsey, I feel him; it's Andrew, Brian's wolf.' Oralie exclaimed happily; I'd never seen her so happy before.Mixed with joy, I feel worried for Brian. As far as I know, Brian automatically closed his heart after the incident four years ago. Since then, because of guilt in the past, he chose not to transform again, but now to save me and my teammates, he broke his promise.The battle between the two most potent wolves quickly reached its climax. Brian, when transformed, is entirely different from when he is human. His strength fascinates me; he's like the werewolf in Legend Marcus. I heard the mighty god of war from my father as a child. I couldn't have imagined his majesty before, but now I ca
