In a state of worry, I rubbed my forehead."Adrian Miller, I despise you so much," I murmured in a frustrated tone.In order to destroy my reputation, he planned this entire tactic.How could he spread such cheap news in public? Did he not care about his sweetheart? Or did he think she would not get the news?The thought occurred to me, and I couldn't help but smirk. I dialed a number."Hello?" a young woman spoke out."Where is your boss? Give her the phone."When the woman heard me, she was taken aback.“Who are you?”"She knows me."The woman handed her phone to her boss. It was then that I heard the voice of the person that I had been hoping to hear."Who's speaking?""Your shameless boyfriend's ex-wife," I replied with a grin, as if she could see me.Lynda was quiet for a brief moment. I assumed she could not understand how I got her maid's number.That day, when she proved me wrong in front of Adrian and his parents, I inspected the number from which she sent me a message. It wa
Everyone in the car was completely silent."I don't want to leave you here alone, Natalia," Eric spoke out."Eric, I am not a child." I tried to assure him."There are so many Alphas here.""I heard everyone is leaving at noon. By the way, you should trust me. I can defend myself.""I trust you."After getting out of the car, he closed the door behind him. When he approached the window and murmured,"Be careful. Come back to our pack soon."I responded with a nod of my head and said, "I will."When I looked over, I observed him going inside the hotel to check out and then calling a cab to take him directly to the airport."Boss, will you be okay here in this pack without any security? Please don't take my words seriously. We can come here another time. Let's go back with Beta Eric today."I leaned against the seat and replied,"Of course not. I will be fine. Moreover, Damia, you should not take it upon yourself. I also want to get some fresh air."Damia bit her lip and nodded her head
It was Adrian. I did not know that his wolf was black. He had red eyes and black fur, which I had read about in the book today. I stared into his eyes for a while. The size of his wolf was so enormous that no one would have the courage to approach him if he were to reveal his shape to them.He took a step toward me, which made me realize I had been looking at him for a long time.I looked away from him and turned around.“Let me shift. I want to meet my mate,” my wolf Nancy said to me. She only reacted to me whenever Adrian was close to me.I responded to her by silencing her inside of me and saying, "No. He will no longer be our mate.”As I started to walk, I heard a growl from behind.I turned my head and saw the wolf coming to me. I realized that it was Adrian's wolf, who wanted to come to me.I froze on my feet when he almost reached me. I raised my hand to stop him."Don't come close to me. I am not your mate. I mean, we will break the bond soon."It was my fault to say somethin
"Adrian, put me down."I have been yelling at this man for the past few minutes. But he was like a deaf person. He did not listen to me and kept walking in some direction I did not know.What bothered me the most was that he was walking very slowly, as if he were an old man."If you want to help me, then walk fast. My secretary is outside waiting for me, and she is an omega. I am afraid something will happen to her.""What about you? Aren't you an omega, too? Who gave you the audacity to come into the dark forest at night? What if something happens to you?" He scolded me.I frowned at him. "Excuse me? Who are you to scold me like this? Who gave you the right over me?"He looked down at me and asked,"Will you shut your mouth or..." he paused."Or what? What will you do?"He moved his gaze from my eyes to my lips, then continued, "Or I will shut them by my way."I averted my gaze from him. "Don't make me hurt you, Adrian. I can be a slow position for you.""Oh really? How will it be?"
My ankle, which had been wounded some time earlier, was the focus of my attention for a while. The wound healed so fast that I was unable to even give it a second look before it was completely healed."Boss?"I looked at Damia and smiled at her. "Get in the car. Let's go back to the hotel."She nodded at me and got in the car. After sitting next to me, she held my hand softly and said,"Boss, I was scared. I thought I could never get you back."I chuckled at her words. "Silly girl, it's just a forest; did you think it would eat me alive?"She shook her head. "No, but you were lost as a child. Your family got you back after so many years; if something had happened to you again, then..."I patted her hand. "I am totally fine. Don't worry."The driver started the car, and we returned to the hotel.When we were walking to the entrance hall, I saw Beta Patric there.He approached me with a little smile on his face. "Hello, Natalia."I gave him a nod with a confused look. "Why are you here,
The moment I stepped into my pack, I felt the breeze blowing in my face, which instantly lifted my spirits and made me feel a bit better.What a relief it was to be back home. At the airport, I noticed that my driver was waiting for me there. I walked to my car along with Damia as my driver held my and Damia's luggage.I reached the pack house late in the evening after dropping Damia off at home.The moment I entered the pack house, I was greeted by the sight of my twins running in my direction.I knelt down and warmed myself by pulling me into my embrace."Mommy.""My babies."When I looked over, I saw Jason and Eric smiling at us. I pulled away from the hug and walked to my brother. I hugged him and asked,"Brother, is everything okay?""Yes, my lil baby. Why did you think something was wrong?"I looked at him and said, "You called Eric here, so I thought...""Everything is alright. I think he is not your assistant, but the beta of this pack. Sometimes, his Alpha can need him, too."
It had been two weeks since I returned from the Storm Forest Pack. I went back to work. I started to raise my hopes again. One defeat did not have the power to bring me down; I was not a loser.My brother had just made an announcement to inform all of the packs that the Blue Blood Pack would be forming an alliance with the upcoming contract. Because every pack was able to satisfactorily meet our demand, we extended an invitation to them to join our pack.This news traveled across all of the packs, and the head Alpha of each pack expressed interest in forming a partnership with us.According to Jason, he took care of it since he was the head Alpha of this pack. This would be a meeting among the head Alphas of all the packs, and it would have nothing to do with carrying out business.There was no way for me to know what was going through Jason's head. He did not talk to me about it before he announced that. When I asked him about it in reply to my inquiry, he did not discuss it and stat
Doctor Max! Take a seat with us, please." Damia uttered it with a courteous smile on her face."And you are?”"Hello, I'm Damia, Miss Natalia's personal secretary.""Oh, nice to meet you," Doctor Max said, looking at the other four men who stared at him."You came with..." he muttered while looking at me after a brief pause."They are the board of directors of our company," Damia explained to him.One by one, those men shook hands with Max."Please, sit with us."They pulled a chair for him next to me. Max sat on the chair and apologized,"I'm sorry if I interrupted you all.""I disagree, Doctor Max. It's a stroke of good fortune that we get to meet you. It's my birthday, by the way," Mr. Hendrix said. Being a bachelor, he was about to tie the knot with his girlfriend in the near future."Happy Birthday.""Thank you so much.""I don't have anything with me right now to give you.""That doesn't matter. Your presence is a great present for me."Max chuckled and gave him a nod. "But it w
FOUR YEARS LATER ...Under the leadership of Alpha and Luna, the Crystal Pack had grown into a formidable pack. Everyone used to be afraid of Alpha Adrian, but after his Luna joined him, the fear doubled because they were the power couple in the werewolf world."Luna Natalia,"The maids bowed to the stunning woman as she walked glamorously through the corridors. She gave them nods as she passed them.Other Lunas were envious of her, finding it hard to believe a woman could possess such powerful abilities. She was an Alpha female and not only that, she was giant like her mate.It was as if they were both moon children, destined to be together forever.In the past few years, Natalia has experienced every stage of her life with her husband, and time has passed very slowly with each passing year. Her life had completely changed. Her opinions, her way of thinking, her way of talking, her etiquette, and many other things had changed. However, what did not change was her heart. She cared
After the crown ceremony,Natalia glanced at Grace, considering taking Adelia to the bedroom."Mom, you must be tired from holding her.""No, it's okay. Amanda was there with me all the time."Natalia moved her hand up. “She is asleep. You can—”Adrian came over to her and stopped her. "You can leave her to Mom. I am sure she can handle her. You look worn out anyway."Natalia was stunned. She shot him a look. Adrian shrugged his shoulders and walked up the stairs."Mom, don't listen to him."Grace shook her head and replied, "He is right. You were very busy throughout the day. Take a rest tonight. I will take care of Adelia."Natalia let out a sigh and agreed to her. She glanced at the sleeping baby and went to the bedroom.When she entered the bedroom, she found the whole room was empty.She shut the door and took off her crown. She carefully placed it inside the closet, next to the dagger.As she finished removing all of her jewelry, the bathroom door opened.She turned her head onl
A Few Months Later"I, Adrian Miller, Alpha King, declare Natalia Miller to be the Luna and Queen of my packs."Everyone applauded when Adrian placed the crown on Natalia's head.Natalia gave Adrian a smile. He wore a black robe embroidered with spells designed by the coven of the Black Haw pack. They sent it as a present to embrace their new head Alpha.Natalia lifted her white gown and descended from the stage, clutching Adrian's arm.It reminded her of her wedding day.Hazel and Jason came toward them and hugged each other."Where is John?" Natalia asked about their child.They pointed to Jade, who was holding their child, while Grace stood next to her, holding Natalia and Adrian's child, Adelia.The two women appeared to be the happiest women in the world today."Alpha Adrian, Luna Natalia,"They turned around after hearing a familiar voice.It was Alpha Wade. Beside him was Tyra, Eric's mate. During their conversation, Alpha Wade said,"I am planning to marry Tyra off soon."Nata
Days passed as the delivery date of Natalia's child was coming.Things had changed in Natalia's life in the last few months.Everyone was doting on her. The person who cared for her the most was her husband.Adrian always came home early to spend time with Natalia and his children. He said he wanted to give most of his time to Natalia during her pregnancy period.Natalia had noticed Adrian's growing impatience to see his baby in recent months. His face was always lit up with excitement.She used to have this dream when she was pregnant a few years ago.Adrian never allowed her to do any work. He was always curious about her preferences for food and activities. He even canceled his meetings whenever she felt sick. When she was down, he always surprised her with a gift to lift her spirits.He did not pass up any opportunity to spoil her. In fact, her own family claimed Adrian had spoiled her too much.She felt as if everything was a dream, and she wanted to stay in it forever."Adrian,
Everyone returned to the pack house.Natalia was lying in bed. The private doctor was checking on her."You are lucky the baby is fine," she said."Thank you, doctor. Please check on Hazel too," Natalia said to her.The doctor gave her a nod and then left the room.Natalia looked at the people who entered the room after the doctor left.Martin Hansley and Jade Hansley hugged their daughter. Meanwhile, Lucas Miller and Grace Miller lowered their heads.Natalia smiled at them, saying, "Mom, Dad."They looked at her with apologies."Forgive us, dear," Lucas said as he approached the bed.Grace hugged Natalia and said sorry to her for everything they had done in the past few days."It was not your fault. You all were influenced. I should be sorry for losing my temper and saying those rubbish things."They shook their heads and said they would never have a daughter-in-law like her. She was more like a daughter to them.“How is everyone?”“Doctor Max treated them. Benjamin was in critical c
Natalia was astounded by what she witnessed. Then she realized that the man was old Leighton's twin brother."Natalia"She heard her mother's voice. She turned her and found her and Adrian's parents. She noticed her mother-in-law also looked worried for her.She limped, trying to walk toward them.At that time a witch ran toward her, but a wolf came between and bit the witch's leg, slamming her to the ground.Natalia realized Eric was the one who saved her. She smiled at him. He gave her a nod before sprinting back toward Jason.Today, the three men in her life who once loved her are protecting her.Natalia realized that no matter how powerful you are, there will come a time when everyone needs each other.She went to her mother and hugged her. Her mother-in-law, Grace, shed tears as she also hugged her.Denis Leighton stepped toward Adrian and bowed to him."Alpha"Natalia was stunned to see the old man lowering his head toward Adrian.Adrian released Ansel's neck and took a step bac
Max was standing behind Natalia. He patted Natalia's shoulder and wrapped his arm around her. "Perfect shot."Adrian noticed how securely Max was holding Natalia. His eyes turned pale as he remembered Natalia's words.If she had been with Max, she would have been happy. Getting married to him again ruined her life.Adrian turned around and saw Ansel's arm. It was pierced by a digger rather than a simple knife.He recalled it and realized it was the dagger marked on the back of Natalia's neck. She was a healer who could kill anyone with her dagger, which was filled with her poisonous blood.He did not know about its ability toward the witches or wizards, but she had killed Doctor Harold with that knife. After that, she never touched it again."Thanks, Max," Natalia said to Max.When she called Max yesterday, he asked for help. She asked for the tonics that could help wolves and the dagger, which she used when she needed it. Max arrived at the right time to help her.The fire went out,
Everyone was staring at Adrian, who was mercilessly beating Rick. They could not believe that he had recalled everything.Natalia was surprised as well. Did that mean he remembered everything? Every moment in their lives that they had spent together?"No! No! No! Stop him!"Ansel yelled at her people. They rushed to Adrian, but he growled at them, which caused them to stop in their place, frozen.As the only one who dared to approach Adrian, the old Leighton's eyes turned glowing green.He raised his hand and chanted something, prompting Adrian to stop beating Rick.The old Leighton was giving Adrian mental pain. He grabbed his forehead and groaned angrily.The sound of his groan reverberated throughout the entire forest."Leave him. Don't hurt her," Natalia said to the old man.Jason and Patric told their men to attack the wizards and witches. Because their Alpha was present, they would have to choose between giving their lives or taking the lives of others.Natalia closed her eyes a
Natalia's tears, which she had been holding back until now, fell on her cheeks.Adrian's gaze locked on hers. They were dark but familiar to her. His jaw was clenched as if he were trying not to groan in pain.When his body moved, she came back to reality and gasped."Ad-Adrian! What are you—"Adrian pushed her head back, covering her gaze so she could not look at anything."Sshh"His thumb caressed her cheek while pressing her head against his bare chest as if he did not feel anything.Natalia could feel the heat of the flame whenever the whip touched his back."Don't... Don't hit him!"She exclaimed, crying, but Rick did not stop."Look, who has come to protect his wife? The man who can not shift, who can not protect himself, how can he protect his wife?"Rick's mocking made the witches and wizards laugh. Everyone was aware of Adrian's condition. He had become a puppet of Ansel.Rick continued to whip Adrian's back. As the flaming whip continued to strike him on his back, his skin b
