Natalia stared at him for a long time after hearing him. He closed his eyes and rested his head against the wall, not attempting to free his throat from her grip. "You are such a weak man, Adrian," Natalia scoffed, releasing the grip. Her eyes turned back to black as if her wolf did not want to hurt her mate anymore. She took a step back and turned around. She then walked toward the nightstand. Adrian opened his eyes and saw her grabbing her phone. "What are you doing?" he asked her. "I'm calling Jason." Adrian's brows lifted as he rushed to her and grabbed her phone away from her. "You can't call him. You can't involve your family in our private matters." Natalia's eyes widened when she heard him. Her rage, which she was trying to control, boiled over once more. "Private matter? Is it still considered private? A woman is pregnant with your child, Adrian." Her eyes showed the pain she was feeling. Her tone was very calm, as if she were a zen. Adrian was scared by
Natalia wiped her tears and made her way to the door. But Adrian stopped her by saying,"If you leave, I will destroy the Blue Blood Pack."Natalia turned around with a frown after hearing his cold voice. Her frown deepened when she noticed his eyes had turned a glowing brown.Her hands trembled when she saw how Adrian looked different from how he looked a few minutes ago.He gave her a smirking look. "Don't forget that your brother submitted to me in a war. So killing him won't be a problem to me. As you may know, I have extensive experience killing Alphas during wars."Unaware of what had happened to Adrian and his eyes, Natalia blinked.She wanted to rush to him to ask what was wrong with him. But her broken heart refused to go close to him. The truth was, he betrayed her. He said he was unconscious, but how could an unconscious man make a woman pregnant? Without a doubt, he was lying to her."You are a coward. You know my brother will kill you if he learns the truth."Adrian appro
Inside an old house, An elderly man grinned broadly as he observed the young boys and girls. The boys and girls were all teenagers. Looking around the room the old man had just unlocked, they looked very interested. "Sir, can we use this?" a girl asked curiously while pointing at a transplant bottle. Inside, there was blue liquid. Reaching the table, the old man picked up the bottle. He swirled the liquid inside, and it instantly turned black. The teenagers froze, staring at the bottle with wide eyes. One of the boys rushed toward the old man and asked, "Sir, how did you do that?" The old man let out a chuckle and replied, "We are wizards. Werewolves are unaware of many aspects of our lives. Do you know why?" The teens shook their heads in response. "It is because they are not connected to any covens. Wizards and witches are different from them, yet they are very useful. Otherwise, why would your Alpha send us to me?" He said to them. The teenagers thought for a m
Qadir's legs trembled, which the teens noticed. They hurriedly rushed toward him and held his arms."Sir, are you okay?"They could not see Qadir's white eyes because they had already turned green when his hands left the jar.Qadir took a deep breath and looked at the teenagers. He collected himself and responded,"I feel like I am aging a lot."The teenagers smiled at them, thinking that he was kidding. The teens had come to learn from him, especially considering his advanced age.Qadir instructed them to focus on other objects. Then he covered the jar with shaken hands.When the teenagers left, it was already late at night. He was about to close the door when a hand came up and stopped him.Qadir carefully opened the door wide and looked at the man standing there."Beta Patric?"Beta Patric's eyes were filled with stress as he looked at Qadir. He uttered in a low tone,"Qadir, we need your help."Qadir frowned at him. His hands remained firmly gripping the door.For the first time,
In front of the mirror,A woman was looking at herself. She was dressed in a long black dress. The dress was backless but full-sleeved.Her gaze was drawn to her reflection in the mirror rather than to her dress. It was as if looking at herself helped her gain patience. She took the long earrings and put them on. Her hair was styled down.A knock on the door interrupted her as she pulled her hair to her shoulder and began to comb it."Come in."The door opened, and a man stepped into the room. “Nat—”He paused when his eyes landed on her.,"Benjamin."He quickly averted his gaze away from her and lowered his head. He cleared his throat before saying,"As you told me to call out for a pack meeting, every Alpha in our pack is coming here to attend the meeting."Natalia's lips curved into a smile as she mumbled,"I knew you could handle it. That's why I got ready for the meeting."Benjamin lifted his gaze and looked at her. She put the comb on the dressing table and turned to face him.
Hazel was standing outside of the locked room. Her gaze was fixed on the lock, focusing her attention there.Her eyes glowed briefly before returning to normal when her phone began to ring.She checked her phone to see who had called her.She received the call and mumbled,"Hello.""Did you get it yet?" the person on the phone asked.Hazel glanced at the door and replied,"Not yet.""How long? We will be there soon."Her hand trembled, holding the phone near her ear. "I will let you know very soon."The person hung up the phone. Hazel slowly removed her phone from her ear.But at that moment, someone approached her from behind and whispered in her ear."Are you looking for something inside?"Hazel immediately turned around and clutched her chest. Her body jerked her body up. Her eyes widened when she noticed it was Natalia."You almost scared me to death," Hazel said. Natalia raised her brows and asked,"Why so scared? Is this how you will give birth to Alpha Adrian's heir?"Hazel to
Natalia rolled her eyes before releasing Hazel's neck. She turned to look at Adrian."Look, who's here? Your hero, lil sister," Natalia said it loudly while looking at Adrian.He had a furious look. Ignoring his gaze, Natalia turned to face Hazel.She lifted her hand and placed it on Hazel’s head. She then said to Hazel in a low tone,"Don't worry about this door. Very soon the key will be in my hand. I also want to know what you are looking for and what they have been hiding all these years."When Natalia was about to remove her hand from her head, Hazel grabbed her wrist and looked at her."Why do you find things that are forbidden so fascinating?"Natalia smiled at her, yanking her hand from her grip."Because another woman is after my husband and carrying his child."Hazel glanced at Adrian, who was behind Natalia. He was standing a little away from them.Natalia turned around. She started walking, ignoring Adrian. When she was about to walk past him, he grabbed her wrist and turn
Natalia came to the hallway. When she turned her heels in the direction of the meeting hall, she ran into Alpha Lucas. She looked away from him and came to a halt. Alpha Lucas gazed at her. He cleared his throat and said, "Natalia, I heard you decide to take over the pack company." Without looking at him, she replied, "Yes, dad." "Are you mad at Adrian?" Hearing his question, she felt it was a joke. She slowly lifted her gaze to meet his eyes. "What if it were me who ended up getting pregnant with another man? What do you think? How would your son react?" Alpha Lucas's eyes grew wider. He was not expecting her to say that. He used to see a polite Natalia who always spoke to him with careful words. Natalia did not care anymore. Though it was neither his nor Grace's fault, she was too distraught to care about anything. "Why do people call your son Almighty? For killing Alphas in wars and claiming packs? That is something I can do as well." Alpha Lucas stared at her
With a frown on her face, Natalia turned to face her brother. What was it that he desired that made him to assist the family, such as the Leightons? It was not unfamiliar how these people were. They were notorious and vicious people who could only cause harm to others. So why did he help them in the first place?She noticed that he was looking in a certain direction. Before her eyes could follow his gaze, Hazel got up from the couch."Excuse me. I am coming back in a few minutes," she said in a low tone.After that, Hazel walked past everyone.Natalia followed her movements until she left the living room. When she noticed that Hazel was sweating as if she had been startled, she was perplexed.Wasn't her family there for her to set up things for herself? Then why did she look so afraid?Natalia suspected that Hazel had begun to behave strangely since her family arrived.But why?As other people resumed their conversations, the living room started to emit a reverberation of voices.Afte
Hazel's sister-in-law, Ansel Leighton, was shocked. She did not expect Natalia to respond like that. Her eyes widened and glowed with anger."Did you just—"Lucas Miller, Adrian's father, stopped her from speaking when he noticed the atmosphere growing heated."Please don't take her words to heart."Natalia looked at Lucas to see why he had stopped Ansel. She wanted to hear her out before responding with what she deserved.A shameless family like Leighton deserved to be insulted rather than respected."My sister is very blunt. "She never considers who is in front of her; she always stands for the truth," Jason stated proudly.Ansel raised an eyebrow and said, "Then she should stand the truth this time as well. The truth is that someone else is carrying her husband's children. How can she not show her support for the woman? Can't she support the feelings of these two people and make her own decision?"Natalia clenched her jaw. How did she know what she and Adrian had talked about befor
Natalia was surprised to hear her brother. She glanced at the old man once again.Was what her brother said right?Her eyes quickly swept over Adrian's bandaged forehead. Before he could catch her eyes, she averted her gaze off of him.She pondered, 'Was it Old Leighton who was responsible for the burn on his forehead?’By telling herself that she did not care about Adrian anymore, she attempted to calm her heart.Through a hushed voice, she responded to her brother, "Okay."Jason shrugged his shoulders and said to the old man with a grin.“You are talking about culture and rules? In spite of the restrictions that my pack imposed, have you forgotten how I managed to make it to your pack? You are aware of the reason why I went there, right?”The expression on the old man's face changed. His thick brows furrowed, but then he let out a chuckle."I see I have offended Alpha Jason. Don't mind my words. I was only talking about terms. If that offends Alpha Jason, I apologize."Natalia was s
In the silent living roomEveryone's attention was on Natalia. The three new people scrutinized her with their predatory eyes.The pair of emerald eyes, which had been experienced by seeing many things, keened by focusing on her."How can you refer to her as this pack's Luna when there hasn't been a crown ceremony yet?"Hearing the strong voice, which did not shake a bit even though the owner was old, took Natalia aback.She turned her head to look at the old man. She felt awkward inside after meeting his gaze.It appeared that he possessed far more power than she had expected. The power of the wizarding world was something she was not unaware of. The words that he spoke pierced her heart and brought her to the realization of something that she had neglected to remember.'Crown Ceremony!' she thought, averting her gaze from the old man.She came to the realization that she had not yet earned the title of Luna of this pack. The reflection of the night the Crown Ceremony flashed on her
Natalia scrutinized the three people who did not greet her and instead went to take seats on the couches. Adrian did not even bother introducing her to them. She felt like an outsider.For once, she wanted to leave them for now.However, her brother held her hand and shook his head, indicating that she should not leave at this time."I hope we will not bring up the past. Our children made some mistakes; we will try to solve this," Lucas Miller said with a soft tone.Natalia remained composed, trying to concentrate on their conversation.The young woman had not yet sat down on the couch. She walked up to Adrian and stood beside him."Refreshing to see you again, Alpha Adrian."She was grinning charmingly, and as she gazed at him, her eyes glistened.She raised her hand and gently laid it on his shoulder before brushing something out of its way. As she slowly ran her fingernails over his shirt sleeve, she spoke again while gazing at the bandage around his forehead."You shouldn't have l
At the moment of hearing that, Natalia and Jason both appeared surprised.The Leighton family?Natalia almost forgot that she had heard Gamma Benjamin telling her that some guests were coming to the pack house. He did not say who the guests were, so she was unaware of their identities.Hearing that it was the Leighton family, Natalia felt a shift in her heart.Did they learn that Adrian agreed to accept Hazel and her child? Was it the reason for their arrival?Right after the guards, three people came to the site. They entered the pack house with their green eyes observing the surroundings around them.Natalia examined the three people.They looked powerful—really powerful.There was just one woman among the two men. The woman was young, but she could be two or three years older than Natalia.While the two men have different ages. One was a young man with a calm face, while the other appeared to be the family's main character.It was an elderly gentleman with emerald eyes. A power ema
The color of Adrian's eyes faded from black to brown. He frowned at her upon hearing her statement. He grabbed her wrist and questioned with a raspy voice,"Rule this pack on your own? You mean you want to rule my pack alone?"All of a sudden, she experienced a burning sensation in her wrist. The fact that his hand could cause her to experience such a burning sensation in her head was a mystery to her. Her grip loosened in shock.He was able to successfully get her to move away from him. It caused her to retreat a few steps back. As she was perplexed, her legs became unbalanced.Jason noticed his sister was about to fall. He hurried over to her and prevented her from falling by holding her.His head turned to Adrian, and he let out a low growl. He was filled with rage, and he had a strong desire to kill this man right at this moment."How dare you push her?"He was concerned that this man would cause harm to Natalia's child. Yeah, it was Natalia's child only. The idea of her living wi
Natalia's eyes turned a glowing dark blue. With her teeth gritted, she shot her gaze at Adrian.His parents were taken aback by her words. It was disrespectful to them. Natalia had never dared to do that before. She was always courteous and respectful towards them."Natalia!"Grace reacted angrily. Her eyes narrowed as she spoke,"We have been showing you care all these years. But by saying that you can kill us, you have just shown what our place is in your eyes."Grace looked at her husband, Lucas Miller, as she held his arm."Your father-in-law adores you and has always wanted you to be his daughter-in-law. He never accepted Lynda, and he never mentioned liking Hazel. But today, you disrespected this old man."Natalia turned a blind eye to all the things Grace Miller was saying. The moment Adrian announced that he was going to take Hazel as his mistress, she had completely lost her mind, and his parents did not even object to the idea.Upon seeing Adrian's expression of indifference,
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
