"Max is here?" I asked and dashed to the door.

"Nat–"

I turned my head to Liana and said,

"That's an important person. I need to see him."

When she gave me a nod, I left the changing room.

I looked around and found Max sitting at a table next to the window.

I walked over to him and stood beside his table.

"Max."

He was using his phone. He lifted his head to look at me.

"Natalia, can we talk?"

I thought he would talk about my brother. So I was about to say yes, but then my gaze lowered to my apron.

"Actually, I'm on duty now. Is it something about my brother?"

His gaze shifted to my apron. He thought for a moment, then said,

"It's okay. I can wait until you are done."

I was surprised by his soft tone. I could not make him wait for the whole day just to talk to me. It was me who needed him. My brother was sick, not his.

I looked over and noticed Liana staring at me from the counter.

Her eyebrows went up, wanting to know what had happened.

"I am in the mood for some mocha. Can you make i

    His words brought me back to my past. When I was married to Adrian, only a few people knew about our marriage.I always heard our chief maid, Amanda, call me beautiful whenever I wore something good for Adrian. She used to say that I had beautiful features, but I looked fragile.That time, I did not have my wolf with me. It was the reason I looked weak. However, this made no difference to my beauty.But I recalled the days when Adrian used to call me ugly. He said I was not comparable to any other attractive woman who could capture his attention. In his eyes, I was the ugliest woman in the world."Can I have another cup of coffee?"Max's voice broke my thoughts. I saw him waving his hand at another waitress.The girl approached the table and looked at me as if asking me why I was not taking Max's order."Sure, sir," she replied to Max."It's for the beautiful lady in front of me. I don't know much about her taste. I hope you make the coffee she prefers."The waitress seemed taken abac

    Harold's words caused me to scowl. I glanced at Max, who looked calm."Okay, let me check it."I hung up the phone and checked on the internet to know what Harold was talking about.I was surprised to see that there were so many searches conducted under both my name and Adrian's name.I went ahead and clicked on my name. My timeline was flooded with a large number of posts almost immediately."Alpha Adrian is cheating on his girlfriend with his ex-wife?" I muttered with a confused tone.I clicked a few more posts. The fact that people started talking about Adrian pulling me to his office and that some of the employees even claimed to have seen it was something that caught me off guard.Why did they even bother to make a statement? Did they have no fear of losing their jobs?People began to chastise me in their posts and comments about why I went to the company. It suddenly became a matter of their concern.As I read the comments, I felt a growing sense of rage and clenched my jaw."Al

    "What?"I was on the verge of screaming, but I managed to keep my voice down.I shook my head in disbelief."People are crazy. They think whatever they want to."Max looked at me as though he were studying my facial expressions.Like a sky full of clouds, his eyes started to become cloudy. His calm demeanor changed into an angry one."Max, do you think that too?""No," he answered right away."Exactly. Why can't others understand that?"He did not respond, instead directing his gaze to my coffee. I also drank my coffee without overthinking the situation.There was a deep silence between us, which I did not want to break.When he was done drinking coffee, he broke the silence by saying,“You will not be able to live a peaceful life until you move to a different pack that is far away from him.”I lowered my head and muttered, "I know, but I could not just leave my family here. They would not get any place if all of us left the pack together."Max thought for a moment, then said,"It is p

    "WHAT?"This time, I could not control myself. I got up from the chair. All the people around us in the coffee shop looked at me.But my attention was on Max. He was calm, as if he knew I would react like this."Max, I-I don't know what's wrong with you.""Everything is fine with me.""Do you even know what you are saying?""Yes, I do."I shook my head in disbelief. "I can't."After saying that, I turned around only to find that the others, including Liana, as well as the customers, were staring at me.I took off my apron and walked over to the counter."I am going outside for some time. I will work extra hours at night."After placing the apron on the counter, I exited the coffee shop.The moment I stepped out of the store, I started walking. I was completely clueless about where to go.Tears enveloped my eyes once again.How could anyone possibly ask me to be his girlfriend?I was a divorced woman. I had children. If my children were here with me, I would have given it some thought

    Everything he said came to mind, one by one.What made him fall for me? What was it about me that he liked? My life was already out of control. I did not want to mess it up anymore.I took a few steps back while shaking my head in denial.As if he had seen something behind me, Max's eyes widened in surprise. I was about to turn my head.But before that, he hurried over to me. He held me in his arms and turned to the other side.I was shocked.It took a few seconds for me to understand what had just happened.I was about to be hit by a car, but Max saved me. When I turned my head to look at the car, I noticed that the driver had turned his head to look at me.That was not a look to check on me or see if I was okay. Rather than that, it was as if he was trying to see if he had hit me.Strange!Why did he want to hit me intentionally? I might be imagining things."Are you okay?"The sound of Max's voice caused me to turn my head. When I looked into his eyes, I noticed a hint of concern.

    I stared at Max's car until it faded away from my sight. I was at a loss for steps to take. Why was Max so stubborn?He was now behaving childishly. What did he see in a divorced woman like me? With a snap of his fingers, he could have thousands of young girls.I felt heartbroken for my brother. His life now depended on me.I raised my hand to hail a cab. A cab pulled up next to me, so I got in and gave the driver the address of my house.When I arrived at my house, I saw a car parked at the entrance of my house.A smile appeared on my face, thinking who had returned home.I paid the cab driver and hurriedly entered my house. The moment I stepped into my house, I saw my father sitting on the couch with my mother.I rushed to my father. He stood up and hugged me."My princess, how are you?"I got emotional and shed tears. My father was my power. He was like a shadow, standing right behind me. I wiped my eyes and smiled at him."Dad, I missed you."He put his hand on my head and stroked

    Eric turned his head at me, and I felt heartbroken. His eyes were not as lively as they used to be. He looked pale. The strong aura he had almost vanished and turned him weak.It reminded me of the day when I woke up in the Blue Blood Pack after running from the Crystal Blood Pack.I was weak, just like that. But at that time, apart from Jason, Eric helped me a lot. He became my friend, and he shared all of my sorrows with me. He helped me move on with my life, and I began to think of him as a family member. He was important to me, just like Jason was to me.I entered the room and closed the door behind me. I walked to the bed and sat on the edge."Eric, it's been a long time."He smiled at me, though he looked in pain. He lifted his hand, and I caught it immediately."How are you?" I asked."Natalia, you haven't changed yet."I chuckled at him. "It's just a couple of months, silly. Not a decade that I would change."My words caused him to laugh. "I know. But I don't think I will stay

    I rubbed my forehead as I was on the verge of losing myself."Natalia, why can't you just calm down and start a new life?"Eric's question caused me to laugh at myself. I lowered my head and replied,"When a mirror breaks, there is a loud noise. But no one listens to the cry of a broken heart. This need for love destroyed me entirely. I am afraid to even think of being with a man."Eric turned silent. He had nothing to say in reply to my words.I slowly stood up from the bed. "Have you eaten anything? Can you walk?" I asked, glancing at his covered legs."I can. It is just that when I move, I feel pain all over my body.""Okay, I will send maids with your food. Take a rest.""That's what I have been doing for months. Give me some work to do. Death in leisure is not what I want."After saying that, Eric tried to sit up. However, I quickly grabbed his arm and assisted him in sitting up."There is something I wanted to tell you," Eric said, looking at his hands, which looked thin to me.

    Taking a deep breath, Hazel knew she had to tell them everything."That witch's powers were imprisoned with ash in a jar, and the door had been locked for years. My sister-in-law, Ansel, is the coven's second highest-ranking witch after that woman. So, all these years, Ansel tried her hardest to break the door and free the powers so that she could take over them.So when Natalia broke the door, the powers were freed, and Ansel possessed them all. Now she is the most powerful witch."Natalia recalled what had happened in that room. She had assumed she would die, but she did not.Hazel stepped toward Natalia and said,"Sister, I am sorry for what happened to you. But I had nothing in my hands. I was not alone. My child was with me. So I had to follow whatever they told me. The only thing I could do was not open the door. Before you opened it, I used to tell them that I had not found the door."Natalia's eyes lowered as she noticed Hazel caressing her own stomach.Natalia's eyes blurred

    Natalia was shocked as her eyes widened. She heard something she could not believe."Y-Your child? H-How?" she mumbled.She felt as though the sky had fallen on her. She was not in a state to feel anything. She was confused and puzzled.Jason sighed and looked at her.“I met her in her pack. There was never anything between her and Adrian. The child is mine, and I spent a night with her a few months ago."Natalia shook her head. Her hand slipped away from Jason's hand."That's not possible. She manipulated you, brother. You have never talked about her. And why did she lie when the child is not Adrian's? Why is he even trying to protect her? He himself admitted that that child is his."Hazel looked at Natalia and stepped toward her. Natalia raised a hand, stopping her from approaching her. "Don't. You can manipulate everyone but me. I didn't forget how you warned me to leave Adrian's life."Hazel clenched her jaw and said angrily, "I also warned you about that door. Why did you break i

    Natalia was in disbelief. "Do you think I am a fool? You can not just show up and make a fool of me. At first, your Alpha said that Hazel is nothing to him, then he let her stay in the pack house. Later, he claimed that the child she was carrying was not his, and I believed him again. But what about now?"Her questions pierced like daggers toward Patric. He lowered his head in defeat. "I know you have to tolerate a lot.""Tolerate a lot? All of my life, I have been only suffering for your Alpha. He said he wants me to leave this pack."Natalia could not stop herself from telling Patric everything that hurt her heart."He smashed my love in front of my brother. He told him to take me away with him. Can you imagine how well I controlled myself at that time?"She leaned back against her chair, closing her eyes and shaking her head. "It is all because of my children. I am bearing everything just for them."Patric took a deep breath and said, "I came back yesterday. I have collected all of

    Natalia was shocked when his lips touched hers.She tried to push him. But Adrian did not let her go.He felt sharp pain in his head as if something was exploding inside. His hands wrapped around her waist, pressing his body against hers.As though he had been longing for it, his rough kiss turned desperate.Natalia became so enraged that she shoved him with her wolf strength.He retrieved a few steps back. Natalia growled at him."How dare you do that?"His brows shot up as if he was confused by his own action. His gaze roamed around the floor until they lifted up to look at her.As if his eyes could change colors, they turned dark brown, and suddenly they flashed red for a moment.She recalled that before the accident he looked like that."Get out of this room right now," she said, glaring at him. She did not want to see him.He did not move as he stared at her with a pair of lost eyes.When she saw he was not moving, she opened the door and walked out of the room.There was no way

    Natalia's eyes were on the door. She had seen Hazel leaving the house. For some reason, she guessed who she went after.'What is her relationship with my brother?' she thought."Miss Natalia"She looked away from the door and turned to Alpha Jonas. She smiled at him.This noon, when Adrian sent the necklace to her, she was surprised at first but scoffed after learning his words from Damia.She knew this man could never care for her. He was a devil in disguise who was showing his true colors with passing time.So when Alpha Jonas called her today to ask what she would like to have, she told him that she desired a necklace. She wanted to wear it in front of Adrian to mock him."The more I see you, the more I feel like I have never seen this much beauty," he remarked with a chuckle.Natalia grinned at him and said, "Alpha Jonas is flirting with me. Does his girlfriend know about it?"In a blink of a second, all the color washed away from his face.Natalia noticed this, lifted her hand, a

    Adrian tried to think why did Jason make an alliance with them in the first place. What exactly did he want?He was able to see the expressions of shock plastered across the faces of all of the Leightons. They were not expecting this. To them, it was like a blow to the head.Adrian assumed that Jason did that because Natalia wanted it. But Natalia's eyes were hazel all the time. Her eyes kept observing her when her brother was talking to her.Ansel's anger caused his fingers to become more firmly gripped on the jewelry boxes. The old Leighton looked mad at Jason while Rick appeared to be fierce."You will pay for it, Alpha Jason," Ansel said, leaving the room.Her husband and the old Leighton followed her behind as if she were the main member of the family.Jason rolled his eyes. He turned his head to Adrian and said,"You will be next to face something like this."It was a warning.Adrian did not like it when he said that in front of other businessmen.Jason gave Natalia a small smil

    Adrian's eyes darkened when Natalia smiled with her red lips and looked in another direction.Adrian's gaze shifted on the way and found Alpha Jonas grinning at Natalia."A beautiful necklace for a precious woman. I have always admired her when she was the CEO of her father's company. She is a pure beauty. It's bad luck that she decided to stay here. But if you want to come with me, I will not take any mistress for my whole life."Adrian glared at the man as he found his words mocking toward him.Jason scoffed at Jonas and said, "She is a stubborn woman. She doesn't listen to anyone. Otherwise, Alpha Adrian is ready to leave her. Isn't it Alpha Adrian?"Jason's gaze met Adrian's like a clash colliding.Hazel was about to say something, but Ansel shook her head at her.Natalia walked toward her brother and let out a chuckle. "Let's focus on the birthday girl. Looks like I took all the limelight away from her."Hazel stared at Natalia. There were some untold words that were conveyed thr

    Adrian left the company, neglecting the idea of having lunch with Patric.He got inside the car and told his driver to drive to a restaurant.He was on his way back to the company after lunch when he received a message from Ansel informing him that tonight was Hazel's birthday and that he should give her a present.Adrian's car stopped in front of a jewelry shop. He went inside the shop and told the staff to pack something that would look good on a young woman.A female employee approached him and showed him a few designs. Adrian was not interested in choosing, but his eyes fell on a beautiful necklace.He did not know why, but looking at the necklace, his mind reflected Natalia's face."Pack this one."The female employee smiled at him and packed the necklace. When she was about to hand it to him, he said,"I told you to pick one."The woman was stunned. "Oh, you want another one?"She thought he was going to buy only one necklace. The woman picked the best design and showed it to Ad

    When the elevator door opened and they arrived at the first floor, Adrian gave him a stern look and was ready to reprimand him.Adrian exited the elevator first, and Patric followed, intending to go check on Adrian's condition with the pack doctor.At that time, they ran into Benjamin.Adrian took a halt when Benjamin bowed to him.With a pair of cold eyes, Adrian said to him,"I warned you to stay away from that woman. She is not good for our pack."Benjamin lowered his head before glancing at Patric. Patric was staring at him. He exhaled and returned his gaze to Adrian."Alpha, she is my Luna. It is my responsibility to protect her when everyone is against her."Adrian tightened his fists while glaring at Benjamin. Meanwhile, Patric focused his gaze on Adrian. "Didn't you say you don't like her? Why do you care if Benjamin roams around her? You want her to leave this pack anyway."Gamma Benjamin was shocked. He shook his head as he realized Adrian had misunderstood his pure intentio
