Perking up, Alicia playfully quipped with a smile, "I didn't expect you to show up until tomorrow night."

Tobias reached out to tuck a strand of hair that clung to her cheek behind her ear, then winked and remarked, "You know I can make the journey in half the time it took you. That's why I allowed you to leave early."

"Shut up, Speed Racer!" Alicia gasped, playfully turning her head away from him. Noticing her father and stepmother still in a state of shock, she introduced them, saying, "Dad, this is Tobias. Tobias, they're..."

Without waiting for Alicia to finish her introduction, Tobias furrowed his brow and leaned in to kiss her lips once again, effectively silencing her. His tone carried a hint of displeasure as he remarked, "Babe, this morning you were calling me 'darling.' Now, just because I'm an hour late, you're addressing me as Tobias." Though his voice remained restrained, it resonated clearly throughout the room, ensuring everyone heard his words.

    "Jenny, are you absolutely certain about this? He appears condescending and arrogant. Did you notice how he spoke to me earlier? His chin was practically scraping the ceiling!""Just wait and see! I will definitely bring down this wealthy man. You know, guys like him who are loaded with money have numerous love affairs. They crave excitement and don't care about one-night stands. But if I can spend a single night with him, I can guarantee a worry-free life for the rest of my days."The carpet muffled the man's footsteps as he ascended the stairs. Unbeknownst to him, Tobias overheard the sisters' foolish conversation, intending to startle them until Alicia took hold of his arm.Alicia, too, caught wind of the conversation between her stepmother and Aunt Jenny. However, in order to prevent her mate from causing further trouble, she had to speak deliberately and loudly, "My room is at the end of the hallway."Noticing Tobias' displeased frown, as he disapproved of her spoiling his prank,

    "She's pregnant."Those were the first words Alicia heard as she emerged from the haze of dizziness. She recognized the voice of old Grey, the pack doctor. So who was pregnant? Alicia wondered in confusion. Was it Mary or Aunt Jenny? She hoped it wasn't her until the next moment when she heard, "Congratulations, Mr. Wilton. Alpha Jason.""Oh my goodness! That's fantastic! I'm going to be a grandfather!" Jason exclaimed, his excitement evident as he covered his mouth. Forgetting Tobias' high status at that moment, he placed a hand on Tobias' shoulder and playfully nudged him, saying, "Congratulations, Tobias."The excitement in her father's voice brought Alicia fully back to consciousness. She opened her eyes and found herself lying in the pack's treatment room. Beside the bed was a small testing device, its screen displaying the accurate result: Pregnancy, 2 weeks.Tobias was in utter shock and disbelief. He had always been a composed and confident Alpha, and if the news didn't pertai

    "Accept your rejection? Has nothing to do with me?" Damian asked, the words practically grinding through his teeth as he confronted Alicia. "You believe it would bring shame to you and the baby if anyone found out I'm a rogue? That's why you're desperate to sever our mate bond, isn't it?""No! That's not what I meant. I simply don't want you or your pack members to become targets of the Wilton Family. The truth is, I don't hold a favorable position within the Wilton Family. If I were to admit that I'm accidentally pregnant with another man's child, I would likely be expelled from the family. The worst-case scenario could be imprisoned. However, if they were to discover that you are my mate and the father of this baby, the Wilton Family would likely use it as an excuse to wage war against you and your pack. I don't want that to happen," Alicia explained, her voice filled with urgency."You're treating me like a coward," Damian muttered, his lips pursed, his deep eyes concealing his dis

    Jason quickly clarified, "I apologize, I was concerned about the possibility of the pack being invaded by that black wolf."Tobias grunted, his arrogance evident as he replied, "I have no interest in invading your pack. Moreover, your bullets loaded with wolfsbane won't harm me."Alicia cleared her throat awkwardly and suggested, "I recall you left your shirt and suit jacket in your car. Go ahead and get dressed. I'll accompany my father back home. Oh, and don't forget to grab your gift." With that, Alicia retrieved her car key from her pocket and handed it to Tobias. With her father and other pack members present, it was impossible for her to continue the conversation with Damian regarding the rejection."Tobias, can we talk?" Jason inquired, passing the gun to his Beta.Alicia bit her lip, sensing that her father might be about to ask Tobias for a loan. However, Damian wasn't truly Tobias, and she was about to intervene to prevent her father from speaking to him when Tobias responde

    Alicia's brow furrowed, and she questioned, "Aunt Jenny, what are you talking about?"Jenny let out an exasperated sigh and vented, "Your husband went ballistic, blaming me and Mary for causing you to harm when you passed out. He was on the verge of shifting, I swear. And he threatened to kill all of us if anything happened to you! You're just pregnant—does he really need to be so on edge that he's ready to murder us?"Alicia hadn't anticipated Damian's level of concern for her well-being. He had definitely overreacted, but deep down, it warmed her heart and filled her with a fluttering joy. This peculiar joy was distinct from the comfort she felt when her father or Eric cared for her; it stemmed from the attention and love bestowed upon her by her mate, her lover.Jenny caught a glimpse of the secret smirk curling up on Alicia's lips and assumed Alicia was intentionally flaunting her satisfaction, taunting them for feeling intimidated by her affluent husband.She glanced at her dimwi

    "Honey, what do you want to do? Don't tell me you want to kick Jenny out too. She's my only sister." Mary was in disbelief hearing her husband's words. She couldn't fathom that her good-tempered and obedient husband could act this way."Mary, I understand your bias towards your sister. But she doesn't deserve it. You have no idea what she's been doing behind your back." Jason glanced at Mary and then approached Jenny."No, Jason, I know I was wrong. Please, don't kick me out. Don't make me a rogue. I promise I'll never come to your pack house again."Eric grunted and muttered, "Your promises are worthless."Jason frowned and spoke sternly, "Jenny, I tolerated your spreading rumors and gossip among my pack members for years. I overlooked the inappropriate words and seductive gestures you directed at me. I even allowed Mary to use my pack's funds to indulge both of you. I endured you abetting Mary in bullying my Allie. But today, you slandered my two children, and that is something I ca

    10 hours? Was Tobias really asking her to flee North America within 10 hours without even getting a moment of rest?Jennifer noticed the complex expression on Alicia's face as she sat beside Tobias as if she had something she wanted to say to him."Allie," Jennifer sensed that Alicia was her last chance. She was going to make one final attempt to secure a chance for herself to stay."Allie, I'm sorry. I know I've said so many hurtful things to you. Please forgive me. Can you please put in a good word for me with your husband and father? Please! I want to remain with the Scarlett Pack. I'll accept being an Omega. If I can't be an Omega, then I'm willing to be a rogue. Just don't add my name to the blacklists of the Moon Halo Pack and Golden Moon Pack." Jennifer grasped Alicia's hand, seeking her forgiveness and hoping for her assistance.Eric, who had remained silent until now, observed that Alicia seemed to be softening and grumbled, advising her, "Don't be foolish!

    A soft smile graced Alicia's face, reminiscent of the gentle glow of moonlight on a full moon. Her voice carried a softness as she shared her past and the story of her mother's passing. In stark contrast, after the death of his parents, he and Ellis refrained from discussing them with anyone. They even forbade any mention of their parents within the pack house. With time, he found himself no longer actively recalling the events preceding their parents' demise. He felt he had come to know Alicia on a deeper level. At one point, he perceived his mate as somewhat timid, sometimes too kind to those who tormented her, and at times courageous enough to reject him. But now, in Tobias' eyes, Alicia embodied a resilience and strength that surpassed anything he and Ellis had ever possessed. "You are strong. When I faced a situation similar to yours, I chose to bury and hide the memories associated with my parents," Tobias couldn't help but whisper his thoughts. Alicia halted and turned her h

    "It's probably because of this." Ellis rubbed his nose, then pulled out his smartphone and played one of the most popular short videos on Tik Tok for Tobias.The video was uploaded by Mae, Ellis' mate.In the video, Tobias was staring intently into a microscope.As Mae was filming, she asked him.[Hey, you loser who cheated on your wife with a double identity and ended up being locked up by your grandfather relying on your wife to save you, have you researched a potion that restores the shifting ability of your perfect wife yet?]Tobias remembered it was this morning when Mae visited here to check on the progress of his potion research, like a cold and incapable boss asking in the coldest of tones why your report was done as well as shit before the deadline of an unprecedented project.Annoying enough to make him want to blacklist her from the Wilton Family."You know what?

    "Allie!" Tobias shouted and then glanced at Lee.Lee, witnessing the unfolding chaos, reacted swiftly. He aimed his gun and, with a single shot, ended the life of one of the men restraining Tobias.The gunshot reverberated, momentarily freezing Martin's wolf and the others in the lab. Lee, facing Martin's wolf, expressed regret but stood firm, "I'm sorry, Martin,I can't watch that girl die."Seizing the opportunity, Tobias shifted into a massive black wolf that took up nearly half of the lab and shattered the glass prison with ease.With unparalleled strength, Tobias' wolf attacked Martin, the older gray wolf feeling the sting of his waning power as the younger wolf sank its teeth into his neck.However, just as Tobias prepared to deliver the final blow, Martin shifted back into his human form.Tears streamed down his face as he pleaded desperately, "Toby, I am your grandfather. Don't kill me."The giant black wolf narrowed his eyes and showed him fangs sharper than knives. It looked

    The cold atmosphere within the laboratory seemed to thicken as Martin's unnerving smile lingered."Looks like you two had a nice chat," Martin remarked, his voice carrying a sinister edge. "The full moon is on duty. So, Allie, shall we get started?"The pale light of the full moon cast an otherworldly glow, setting the stage for the impending challenge. Alicia and Tobias exchanged a glance, a silent reassurance passing between them.Alicia, her composure unwavering, nodded gracefully and stood up. She held Martin's gaze, firm and unyielding, as she made her request, "You must release Tobias now."Martin, as if amused by her audacity, merely shrugged. With a subtle gesture, he signaled the lab staff, dressed in pristine white attire, to release Tobias from his glass prison.The mechanical hiss of unlocking echoed in the glass sterile room as Tobias was yanked up from the bed by Lee and led towards the exit of the glass room. His eyes locked onto Alicia.As Tobias passed by her, he stop

    "You hid your special healing powers from me. So we're even." Tobias joked and winked at Alicia instead of telling her the truth.If they hadn't been in this damn glass prison, Tobias would have chosen to take her in his arms and tell her all of his story, instead of what he was doing now, where he looked like an object to be dissected on a lab table."You're still in the mood for jokes?" Alicia raised an eyebrow and twisted Tobias' arm a little harder, "Tell me why? Otherwise, I'll never say a word to you again."Tobias pretended to grimace in pain and then sighed at Alicia, "I'm sorry. As a husband, I don't want to drag my wife into danger. As a lead of rogues, I can't bear to keep my luna ready to fight at all times. ""You think you're cool to say that, huh?" Alicia asked, tears flowing from her eyes and brushing her cheeks.Tobias forced a small smile and wanted to wipe the tears from Alicia's face, but since his wrists were still pinned to the bed, he couldn't."Now I don't go w

    Alicia's heart raced as she stared Martin."You see, Martin," she spoke with a steadiness that masked her inner turmoil, "If you try to take this ring by force, I'll swallow it and shift. Then...”"Shift? Seriously?" Martin’s look turned gloomy as he interrupted Alicia’s words."Lee, you must not inform Allie that the serum she was injected by me was able to temporarily seal her shifting abilities, right?" After the words, Martin turned to Lee.Lee pursed his lips and told Martin. "I did. But she didn't seem very surprised when she heard about it."Martin frowned and shifted his gazes to Alicia again only to find her meaningful smile."Didn't expect it, huh? That serum you talk about is nothing to me." "Well, that’s a real surprise to me." Martin sighed and wore a sad face to tell Alicia, "Go ahead and swallow the ring, kid. I've got doctors here who specialize in dissecting corpses."Then he raised his head and ordered Lee who was standing behind Alicia, "Lee, you know what to do ne

    With trembling fingers, Alicia retrieved a necklace from an old wooden box under the bed.All the stuff in that box belonged to her mother. She touched the necklace which adorned with a photograph capturing the essence of her mother.The woman in that old photo possessed clear blue eyes and flowing blonde hair. Alicia wore it around her neck, clutching the pendant.Mom, please, please do help me and give me courage to save Tobias. My moon god, please grant me a protection of my baby growing in my body. A silent prayer escaping her lips.Lee sighed and then drove Alicia to the St. Crescent Medical Center.through the sterile corridors of the looming danger—the St. Crescent Medical Center.“Oh, no...” Stepping into the heavily guarded lab, Alicia covered her mouth in shock at the scene before her. Mae, Ellis, and a host of Alphas lay unconscious on the cold floor like a pile of subjects waiting to be experimented on.But the sight that pierced Alicia's heart was her mate, Tobias, ensna

    "During our trip to Europe, Martin formed an alliance with Alpha Asher, Mae's brother from the Greenfield Pack. Asher is the 101st Alpha, prepared by Martin for himself after being cured," Lee revealed, his voice a low murmur."Martin invited Alpha Asher to Los Angeles for Mae and Alpha Ellis's Luna Ceremony. Now Alpha Asher is likely drugged and unconscious in the medical center already."Alicia, her heart quickening, absorbed the weight of Lee's revelation. The pieces of the puzzle began to click together. "Why Asher? What does Martin need from him?""It is estimated by Arthur that the shift powers from 100 Alphas can cure Martin's tumor. After he had used Tobias’ shifter power, theoretically he still needs 99 alpha's of shapeshifting power.""But he was no longer satisfied with just curing his tumor. His doctor modified and upgraded Nora's machine to rejuvenate the elders using shifting power. That’s the Martin's plan.""In fact, I planned to release Alpha Asher secretly. But I’ve

    Lee, seemingly hesitant, absentmindedly patted his jean pocket before revealing。"After reuniting with Martin, he told me what happened during the thirty years I was away. Martin was diagnosed with a tumor twenty-five years ago. At that time, Arthur, Tobias's father, was a genius alchemist in the pack. He created a potion that could inhibit the growth of the tumor.""But Martin gradually developed resistance to the potion. Arthur unintentionally discovered that the power generated during Alpha shift could suppress cancer cell growth. His mate, Tobias's mother Nora, even designed a machine to extract shifter powers.""However, after Arthur and Nora experimented on themselves, they found that the cancer cells in Martin's body were extremely resilient. Their combined shifter powers could only restrain the growth of cancer cells, not eliminate them. Moreover, after the extraction of shifter powers, Arthur and Nora couldn't regain their power and permanently lost their ability to shift.""

    Alicia experienced a beautiful dream after being injected with an unknown potion by Martin.In the dream, she found herself in the presence of her late mother, Olivia, who had passed away a decade ago. The warm glow of the setting sun illuminated Olivia as she worked with her sewing machine."Mom!" Tears filled Alicia's eyes, and she couldn't help but cry out."Allie, you look beautiful," Olivia said, opening her arms in a familiar gesture, the same mom who always called her "Allie" with a soft smile."Mom!" Alicia rushed to her mother, embracing her and pouring out her heart about the hardships she had endured."My boss took advantage of me, and I lost the job I loved; my friend Mae lied to me, and I lost our friendship. My husband, my mate, was a liar, and I rejected him. Job, friendship, and love — I have none left.""Mom, will you take me with you?
