Eric put the call on speakerphone."Is my ex-wife with you?" Adrian asked the moment Eric received the call.It was the same way that he always spoke to me in the past; his voice was cold and harsh.Eric gave me a quick glance. Then, in response, I gave him a nod."Yes, she's right next to me," Eric replied."Is Natalia really with you?" Again, Adrian questioned him as if he did not trust what he was saying.This time, his voice came out as laced with rage. It sounded like he was quite angry.After hearing him, I was filled with wrath. Did he think Eric was lying to him? Why would he?The only thing I wanted was to find out the reason behind his calling.Instead of Eric, I replied to Adrian,"What else, Alpha Adrian?"Adrian was caught off guard by my abrupt engagement in conversation. He remained quiet for a while before finally breaking his silence and said,"I would advise you two not to be so pushy. We haven't gone through the official rejection ceremony yet."I grabbed the phone f
Hanging up the phone, I let out a deep, long sigh of worry.There was complete and utter silence in the cabin. I placed Eric’s phone on the desk.While resting my palms on the desk, I could not help but think of going back to visit Adrian's father, Alpha Lucas. I decided to come back to this pack soon after meeting with him.“Are you sure you want to go to that pack? It can be dangerous for you. I don't believe that man.”“Don’t worry. I'll be fine.""Then let me drive you there." Eric said it in a warm voice."No, thanks. I'm there to visit his father, not to provoke him. You'll only intensify the conflict by driving me there."“But how will yo—?”I interrupted him and replied,“That pack is right next to ours. I'll just drive myself."- - -In the evening, I stopped working. After getting up from my chair, I exited the cabin and went outside.By going to the lobby area, I was able to observe employees taking their leaves for today.With a grin on her face, Damia came up to me. "Miss
I was completely taken aback by Aria's question."Handsome Uncle?" I inquired with a look of deep bewilderment.She responded, "Yeah, that uncle we met at the airport."I was able to make out a bright smile and a look of excitement on Aria's face. Within me, I could feel a throbbing pain in my chest.She was talking about her father!I took a deep breath and replied,"Aria, don't talk about that man again, okay?""Why, Mom?""My baby, he is a stranger. I told you that day, right? By the way, Mommy is going to pay a visit to another person who is in critical health.”She lowered her head and pursed her lips in a deep sigh. After a while, she showed that she was a good child by nodding her head.I was fixated on her. Why did she keep bringing up Adrian in everyday conversation? Why could she not forget just one meeting?Was it because he was her father?I noticed Aria started drawing again. I ran my hand over her hair and asked,"What are you drawing?"When she turned to face me, she di
"Miss, we are here."I heard a knocking sound and a voice calling me.After opening my eyes, I immediately closed them again as a light came into contact with them. I sat up straight and rubbed my eyes.I slowly opened my eyes and yawned. I turned my head to the window, where I discovered the driver standing outside. I was surprised to see him there.As I rolled down the window, I looked at him. At that moment, he bowed to me and announced, "Miss, we have arrived.”With a frown on my face, I switched my attention to the other window. It dawned on me that the car was standing outside of the Crystal Blood Pack's pack hospital."What the hell!" I muttered in a low tone.I did not expect my driver to take me to the hospital directly. I had the thought that I would go to the hotel and get a room, then once I had changed my clothes and freshened up, I would go to visit Alpha Lucas.But here we were, in the pack hospital.I looked at the driver, who looked nervous based on the way I appeared
After hearing her response, I put my hands on the desk."Don't call him. Call Alpha Lucas and tell him that Nat-""Hello,"Before I could complete it, she spoke out and interrupted me. It looked like the person had already received the call.A sigh came out of my mouth as I took my hands off the desk."Beta Patric, is Alpha on your side?"My gaze was fixed on the woman. Didn't she say she would call Adrian? Why did she call Patric? Or did she want to pretend that she had their head Alpha's number?Considering that the reception area was very calm, I was able to pick up on what the other person was saying to her."No, he is in the meeting right now." Patric replied to her.With a very nice tone, the woman addressed him and said, "Sir, we need to ask him something.”"He won't be free for one hour. What's the matter?" Patric asked."Sir, someone came to meet Alpha's father," the woman said while eyeing me.She became aware that I was paying attention to what she was saying. As a result,
As I turned my head, I looked at the door. My attention was drawn to the mighty man who had entered the cabin.The handmade tailored suit and ideally brushed hair gave him an appearance of dominance. He looked cold as usual.His sharp eyes were gazing around the cabin until they stopped on me.My wolf jumped inside at his gaze. Almost instantly, I averted my gaze from him and focused my attention on Alpha Lucas."I heard you were busy today. What are you doing here?" Adrian's mother asked him."You don't look happy to see me here," he replied in a cold tone.I almost let out a loud sneer, but I managed to keep my composure. This person was incapable of even having a civil conversation with his parents. He was not that impolite to his parents before our wedding. It was for this reason that he had to marry me in order to satisfy his father's wish. However, after that day, he stopped caring about anybody and everything.Since he was now the head Alpha, I couldn't help but wonder if the s
Adrian's words shocked me. I turned my head to him immediately to glare at him. His eyes were filled with hostility for me.I wish I could yell at him by telling him the truth that those little children were not any sort of fruit of sin but rather his own blood. I wish I could tell him that.But you never know. It is possible that once he was aware of the reality, he would say that they were the fruits of that bed service. Not for a moment did I have any faith in him. The man in front of me did not deserve to know the truth of my children.However, I kept myself from letting out anything. It would be necessary for me to keep my temper under control in front of him.Coming here gave me the feeling that I was taking on a challenge. Because this man would not let me stay calm for the rest of the day.With a reprimand in her voice, Grace Miller told her son,"What's wrong with you, Adrian? Why are you saying this? No one does that."Adrian let out a dark chuckle. "People do that, Mom. Or
“But we are no longer married. Now, five years have passed. Why is he still intrigued by that one thing?” I questioned because I was confused."We don't know. Even when the two of you were married, he was still obedient. But once you had left the pack, he began to undergo a transformation. He turned into a cold-hearted man," Uncle Lucas said while thinking about those days when Adrian had started to react strangely.I took hold of Auntie Grace's hand and rubbed my palm over hers."Everything will be fine. Don't cry."She nodded her head and wiped her tears. "I'm only worried for my husband."My attention was drawn to Uncle Lucas, who appeared to be in a very weak state.At the same time that I felt tears rolling down my cheeks, I pursed my lips. Quickly, I wiped them down.I was an emotional woman. I could not witness the suffering of other people.Alpha Lucas was someone I really respected a lot. I had watched him in his good health when he had the aura to shut down anyone. Now that
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
