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
Doctor Harold stared at me for a while. After briefly gazing at Grace Miller and Lucas Miller, he abruptly shifted his attention back to me."Natalia?" he mumbled my name.I approached him and asked,"How are you, Doctor Harold?""Good. It's been a long time.""Yeah, a very long time."Based on his look, I was able to fully understand that he was uncertain as to whether Adrian had captured me or whether I had returned to this pack by myself.Even though I wanted to express my gratitude to him at that very moment, I refrained from doing so.I just wanted to alleviate his concern, so I said to him,"I came here to meet Uncle Lucas."He nodded his head in response and let out a lower tone."Oh, I see."Due to the fact that they were unfamiliar with me, the doctors were looking at me. I moved out of the way so that they could examine the patient."Harold, my son. Is everything okay?" Auntie Grace asked.Before making his way to Lucas Miller, Doctor Harold gave her a small nod.I caught a
Everyone was shocked when they heard me.The other doctors started to talk about me."How can you say that? You don't even know what the treatment is, do you? That cure is not something that can be prepared by just anyone.""That's right. Every year, we all make an effort to interact with Doctor Max, even if it's simply to say hello to him. And here you are talking about giving us his cure?"I choose to ignore their comments. My eyes were fixed entirely on Doctor Harold the entire time.He raised his hand to signal to the doctors to stop talking. Because he was the chief physician, he was held in high esteem by all of the doctors at the hospital. In anticipation of his words, they lowered their heads and waited for him to speak."Are you sure, Natalia?" he asked me.It left the doctors stunned. They raised their heads to look at Doctor Harold.They were utterly bewildered as to why Doctor Harold would put his faith in someone who appeared out of nowhere."Yes," I responded with self-a
I did not refuse Doctor Harold's request since I also wanted to talk to him about Uncle Lucas's health.I nodded my head in agreement with him."We have a cafeteria for all of the medical professionals working in the hospital. Is it okay if we go there?" he asked me."Yeah, sure."Both of us headed in the direction of the cafeteria. On the left side of the lobby area, there was indeed a captivating cafeteria.The place was kept in a very clean and comfortable manner. Following our walk into the cafeteria, people who were dressed in white coats cast a glance in our direction.Regarding Doctor Harold, they showed their respect by giving him a slight nod of the head. As he made his way to the last table on the window side, he gave them a nod of recognition."Have a seat," he said as he pulled a chair out for me to sit in."Thank you."When I sat down, he moved to the chair that was facing me, which was the opposite chair.After placing the bouquet on the table, he called the waiter. The
I turned my head immediately. There he was, the Alpha Adrian, standing a little distance from my chair.Other doctors recognized him and stood up to bow to him.Adrian’s hands were tucked into the pockets of his pants. Although his face was indifferent, his eyes were fixed on something.I followed his gaze and turned to see where he was looking.His eyes were fixed on my hand, which was over Harold’s hand. I slowly removed my hand and rolled my eyes.I once again shifted my attention to Adrian. Now he was looking at the bouquet of white roses!I assumed he had spotted the bouquet either while he was entering or exiting his father's cabin this morning.I ignored his presence and did not care to look at him again.I came here for just one day. But how come I meet him twice a day?Harold looked away from Adrian and moved his chair to stand up.During the moment when he was ready to stand up to bow to him, Adrian walked to him and pushed him on the shoulder with his hand lightly to sit hi
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
