The moment I heard the pack fighter, I took a step back. As I gazed around with my eyes wide open, I came dangerously close to falling down, but I managed to keep myself up by the wall next to me.My mind was unable to process anything that was going on. Fear started to make my heart beat faster. One by one, I turned my gaze to the members of my family.My parents looked shocked by the news. I slowly moved my gaze to look at my little babies.My eyes were filled with tears, and I couldn't even suppress them anymore because I didn't have the strength to do so at this moment.A war meant the dead bodies of so many people. Most of them would belong to Alpha's family. I could not lose any of my family members. What about my children? They were so little. How could they survive the war?As fury grew within my heart, I experienced a feeling of being pierced into my heart."Backstabber," I muttered while clenching my jaw.How could Adrian do that?My parents and my brother turned their heads
I turned my gaze away from Eric because I was at a loss to think of anything. Even though I did not have any feelings for Adrian anymore, that did not mean that I wanted him to die.However, how dare he attack my pack?Not only that, he attacked the pack when my brother was sick. He knew if he called out a war against us right now, it would be easier for him to win.'What a loser you are, Alpha Adrian! If you hurt my brother or give him a single wound, I swear I won't let you go,' I thought.I saw my brother leave the pack house with Eric. All of his officials, who came to take him, also left with him.When they left, I was staring at the door, which had been shut shortly after they had left. It was Jason's command that the door needed to be closed until he gave permission for it to be opened.In addition, there was a door in the back of the pack house. The establishment of this was done with the intention of protecting the lives of the royal family from those who would seek to take t
Third POVUnder the silvery light of the moon, all of the wolves were fighting as if it were not only a war for their territory but also a battle between life and death.As the growls and groans rocked the trees in the forest, the temperature of the air started to slowly decrease.The rivalry of years was the only thing anyone could describe by watching the war.The smell of blood was present in the air, and it was combined with the odor of destruction and disaster.Natalia tried to pace faster so that she could reach the war as soon as possible.She tried to contact her pack's gamma."I'm coming," she said in the mind link."Don't do that. Go back. We can't secure your safety. It's not a battle against—"She closed the mind link, as she did not want to hear any excuses."Nancy, it's your time to show who you will choose," Natalia reminded her wolf.Nancy was silent as she let Natalia take over. It was like she did not want to fight against her mate.Natalia got mad at her own wolf. S
After being informed by his pack fighters that there was a big alpha who had joined the war, Adrian turned around to see who the Alpha was and who frightened his pack fighters.However, when his eyes fell on the wolf standing afar from him, his entire body froze.The fact that the wolf that had been hunting him in his nightmare actually existed was a complete and utter surprise to him."Adrian, I'm on my way to you. As you have ordered, I have instructed our main fighters to make their way to the pack house."He heard his beta, Patric's voice, in the mind link. But his eyes were fixed on the black wolf. All this time, he thought the wolf's eyes were kind of mysterious. However, they looked familiar to him."Who are you?" he asked."Your death," the wolf replied.He could not be more shocked. The voice was familiar to him. He recognized the voice but could not believe that it was hers.He thought it was a male wolf, but it turned out to be an alpha she-wolf. But not only that, it was ac
Natalia could not believe what she was watching. Alpha Leo, whom Jason referred to as his friend, was attacking him!She did not give it a second thought as she jumped to that side and rushed toward Alpha Leo. He had not shifted yet.It seemed like he did not come here through the forest, but he was already in the pack, waiting for a chance to attack Jason.As soon as Natalia proceeded to him, many wolves came to her to stop her from reaching Alpha Leo.Natalia glanced at Jason, whose wolf was crawling on the ground. She noticed Eric trying to fight with Alpha Leo. But Leo had other stakes in his hands.Natalia tried to shove the wolves in front of her. Nevertheless, they attacked her altogether. Though she was giant in size, the way they kept biting her made her feel excruciating pain.At that time, a black wolf jumped on them, making them fear him. They were already losing strength by tackling a giant wolf. Now, handling another massive wolf was out of their ability.Natalia turned
Natalia's body jerked at the pull. The feelings of pain that she experienced were indescribable.Adrian drew closer to her and started to lick the spot where the stake had pierced her neck."What are you doing?" she asked him, trying to move her head away from him.Wrath was visible in the eyes. He appeared to be in a rage. When she was getting her consciousness back, she realized that he was healing her.But why?Could it have been his wolf that was trying to save his mate? Because it was impossible for Alpha Adrian to have any interest in saving her.There was a growl of caution coming from Patric. When Adrian heard that, he instantly turned around. When he looked, he spotted a wolf running in the direction of the pack house, which was close to them. It was then that he shifted his gaze to the people who had emerged from the pack house.Alpha Martin shifted to save his wife and his grandchildren from attacks."Dad!"Natalia yelled over the mind link in an attempt to prevent him from
Natalia's POVI was feeling horrified. How did the spell of the years break just by one growl?I could see Aria got his father's eyes, and Noah got mine. They had no idea what was going on there.For the sake of protecting them, my mother tucked them behind her. They peeked at the fight to look at it clearly.I assumed it was the other pack's fighters who tried to attack my family; that was why they came out of the pack house.But why didn't they run away from the back door?There were so many questions that captured my mind. However, when I heard Adrian's another angry growl, it shook me a little."They are my children!"I realized that he had finally learned the truth. What should I do now?When I glanced at him, I saw nothing except pure hostility directed against me, which had not been present there a while ago.He made a turn toward my children and began to sprint in their direction.I was shocked. There was no way I would let him get my children.I had the intention of going aft
I tried to say that he could back out of the war in our mind links. We still had time. Alpha Leo would die soon since I had bitten him enough. So the throne would be mine directly.If Adrian backed out, I would not have to kill him. I did not have any wish to make my children orphans, though I would never let them go with him as long as the pack was mine.To my surprise, he shut down all the links as if he were done listening to everyone.His red eyes were declaring that he was not pleased with learning the truth.I stared into his eyes after I stopped attacking him."Natalia! Save your brother!"I heard my mother's piercing scream in our mind link. I heard my father's growl when his body was shoved to the ground.I turned in Jason's direction and saw Alpha Leo had already stabbed another stake in Jason's other leg using his mouth. Jason was senseless on the ground.Even after losing one leg, Alpha Leo was limping, preparing to bite Jason's neck to kill him.No one around him was tryi
Jason's eyes were filled with rage, which caused him to growl so loudly that Grace Miller was forced to cover her ears. After all among the four werewolves, she was the only person who was not an Alpha. Hazel was the exception, she was a witch.He turned around and looked directly at Hazel. She was trying to avoid his gaze."Are you pregnant with his child?"He asked her the question because he did not believe in it. Hearing about the mistress seemed less shocking than hearing this news.His teeth clenched as he stared at Hazel.Hazel stepped aside, appearing frightened, and stood behind Adrian. But there was no mercy in Jason's eyes. His eyes followed her every step. He noticed that she was firmly gripping Adrian's suit sleeve."Stop scaring her. She is pregnant. I don't want my unborn child hurt by anything."Natalia jerked up when she heard Adrian's words. She clutched her dress around her stomach with her hand.'His unborn child? Isn't his unborn child in my womb? Why is he acknow
As if the sky had fallen over Natalia, she felt a sharp pain in her heart. The shock caused her eyes to widen.What was he saying?She tried to comprehend what she was experiencing on the inside by blinking her eyes back and forth. It was almost impossible to bear the pain of the heartache."What are you saying?" she mumbled.Jason was just as surprised as everyone else when he heard Adrian.But the next moment he rushed up to Adrian and punched his cheek.“You fucker! Do you have any idea what you are saying?” Jason let out a roar.The punch caused Adrian's face to turn. A gush of blood started to come out of the left corner of his lips. He touched his lips with his thumb and looked at it.His eyes turned brown for a moment, which Jason did not notice. Because he was so enraged, he had every intention of punching him once more.“Adrian!”Grace Miller screamed in fear when Jason was about to punch her son again.However, Adrian grabbed his wrist and glared at him."Don't forget you ar
Everyone turned their heads to see Adrian in the left corner."Dad"Aria and Noah mumbled. Adrian looked at them. When Adrian's eyes met theirs, they hid behind Jason."Go back to your room," Adrian said to them.They let go of Jason and dashed up the stairs to obey his command.Natalia was so focused on him that she missed her children's expressions. He was dressed in a gray suit. A bandage was wrapped around his forehead. He looked good with his bangs falling on his forehead and hiding the bandage.He rarely covered his forehead with hair. This was a new look that suited him perfectly.Nevertheless, Natalia could not ignore his words over his looks. She was worried for him; at the same time, she was perplexed.The accident injured him. Her gaze moved to his hands. She could see that his right sleeves were slightly bulged in the arm area. She was certain there was a bandage. His fingers looked fine, but there were a few scratches."What do you mean she is going to stay here forever?"
Hazel's green eyes, which glowed for a brief moment, left Natalia bewildered as she observed them. She then turned to her brother, who appeared to be in a state of shock upon seeing Hazel.After rising from the couch, Natalia turned her attention to her brother."Brother, do you know her?"Jason's eyes were fixed on Hazel. His lips parted as if he was going to reply.At that moment, Hazel cleared her throat and looked away from Jason."N-No. We don't know each other."There was a frown on Natalia's face. Why did she reply? Did she ask her or her brother?Jason's finger turned into a fist, moving down to his side. His confused-looking face turned calm as he muttered,"Isn't she the princess of the Black Hawk Pack?"Hazel's gaze returned to him. They looked at each other. Natalia's confusion got even worse. Nevertheless, she recalled that her brother had been providing support for Hazel's pack for some time, which made it possible that he was familiar with Hazel."S-She..."Grace Miller
The blush spread across Natalia's face as she nodded her head. "Yeah, brother."The confirmation of the news caused Jason's eyes to sparkle. His hand reached into his pocket, and he took out his phone."What are you doing?""I am calling Mom and Dad. They will be very pleased."She quickly shook her head and said,"Don't."Jason frowned at her and removed his phone from his ear. "But why?"She lowered her head, rubbing her palm with her fingers. She was entirely at a loss for words when it came to explaining anything to her brother."Adrian doesn't know about it yet."It seemed as though Jason was taken aback. "What?""Yes, brother."“But he should have known before anyone else. He is your mate. He can sense that.”Natalia had no idea why Adrian did not know this by himself. She was in a daze. Her brother gently patted her on the shoulder."It's okay. Tell him today. Let's go to the pack house to let others know."Natalia thought silently for a long time. In the end, she came to the c
Natalia turned her head only to see her brother rushing over her."Natalia! What happened to you!"Natalia put the phone on the bed, not getting the chance to talk to her children. She tried to sit up. Jason held her waist, helping her to sit properly. He put a pillow behind her, and she rested her back on it.After taking a look at the brother and sister, Benjamin then said,"I am going out for a while."Although Natalia gave a slight nod, Jason frowned and turned his attention to him.“Where the fuck is the Miller family? My sister is in the hospital bed. Why is it that none of them are here?”Benjamin lowered his head and replied,"They are quite busy today. Tonight, there will be a few guests coming to pay a visit to the pack.”Natalia was confused upon hearing him. "Guests? Who?"Benjamin glanced at Natalia and then shifted his gaze to Jason. The expression on Natalia's face changed as Benjamin's mind connected with her and said,"Let's talk about it later."Natalia came to the c
"He is what?" Natalia asked.She could wait a thousand years to find out where her husband is. She needed to meet him, she wanted to see him. She wanted to know if he was alright. She kept trying to get through the door with her exhausted body."He is fine, Luna."Natalia paused her movements and turned to look at Benjamin.She looked at him carefully to see if he was telling the truth or just keeping her calm. His eyes were clear, indicating that he was not lying."Where is he?" she inquired."He left the hospital about an hour ago."Natalia was stunned. She blinked, trying to remember whether what she had seen in the car was real or an illusion."Was he okay? How were his wounds?""He got a wound on his head. But aside from that, he is fine."Natalia did not ask why Adrian had not come to see her or waited for her to wake up.Benjamin helped her in reaching the bed by holding her hand and guiding her forward. He sat her down and poured a glass of water.After handing the glass to he
The fear that she felt was the same fear that she had felt when she returned to this pack a year ago. It was Lynda who made up that car accident. The person who saved her from that accident was Adrian. She remembered how he put his own life in danger to save her.Then how could he not be able to control himself at this moment and drive the car in such a way that resulted in an accident?Fearing that she would die, she closed her eyes. In the middle of the street, the car was whirling around. Her body pressed against the door and her head began to spin around.On the other hand, everything came to a halt in an instant as her body jerked on the seat.She heard a loud noise in her head, like a siren ringing around the walls of her mind.The car hit on something and Natalia felt that she would fall from the car.After what seemed like an eternity, Natalia tried to feel any pain. Her hand was clutching her stomach.She opened her eyes to check if she was still alive.She blinked, but every
She noticed him get into the driver's seat. "Are we going somewhere? We have to go to the pack house. We have to get there before him," she said, glancing at his brown eyes.He listened to her but did not respond.He appeared to be in a rage.After shifting gears, he slammed on the accelerator and started the car.The car got out of the area of his house in a few seconds.Natalia’s heartbeat started to race as she watched how fast the landscape moved before her eyes.“Drive slowly,” she uttered.He paid no attention to what she had to say and continued driving in the opposite direction.She frowned when she noticed it and said,“That's not the way of going to the pack house. Where are you going?”He drove the car while remaining silent. A furrow appeared to form between his brows as if he was becoming irritated by her question.She shut her mouth and decided to silently watch him driving the car. She was eager to find out where he was going to take her.It was his clean forehead that
