As his eyes became more gloomy, Adrian's smirk began to fade away. The tone that the young boy used was rude to him."I don't need your permission to stay close to her, little boy." Adrian responded to his warning."My name is Noah. Do not refer to me as a little boy. At the airport, I gave you a warning. So-""Noah, who are you talking with? Are you talking with that handsome uncle?"However, Noah was interrupted by another voice. Adrian recognized that voice. He was able to recall the name of that girl."Let me talk to him."As soon as Aria snatched the phone from Noah's grasp, she immediately began a conversation with Adrian."Hello, handsome uncle. Did my mommy meet you?"When he heard the voice, Adrian thought it was too sweet for him. For some unknown reason, he found that talking to her made him feel good.Hearing Aria's voice brought to mind her adorable face, despite the fact that he was not the type of guy who loved children.In an effort to avoid frightening the youngster,
Adrian lowered his head to her neck. At the moment when his nose made contact with Natalia's ear, she ceased breathing.Even if she had no intention of making any kind of physical contact with him, the feeling of closeness between them created a spark in her body."Why did you do that? I thought you were a..." Adrian took a little pause before moving his mouth to her neck because he was incapable of controlling himself.The scent of her was hypnotizing his senses and causing him to forget about the world around him.Despite the fact that he was capable of fighting against thousands of other wolves during the war, his wolf was unable to resist the secret of his mate.Taking a whiff of her scent, Adrian brushed his nose against her neck.Natalia's eyes widened. She knew what was happening, but her body turned numb at his touch.He was rubbing his nose in the area where a mate was supposed to mark his mate. It was her soft spot, too.She was surprised that he had not forgotten the place
Natalia's POVAs the days passed, I was trying to adapt to the surroundings around me in the Crystal Blood Pack.I went to meet Uncle Lucas daily, as I promised him. I took care of him like a daughter. It was clear that Auntie Grace valued me very much. She said that she knew I did not like my foster family, but I could think of her as my mother.I was unable to be honest with her about the fact that I had discovered my true family and that they were like blessings in my life.It was the last day of the week.Tomorrow, Uncle Lucas would need the cure to heal his wolf.Given that Harold was going to check on Uncle Lucas, we all went to the hospital."I am surprised that his health is getting really good," Harold said to Auntie Grace.After turning her attention to me, Auntie Grace told Harold,"She took care of Lucas. She was always responsible for changing Lucas's medication and ensuring that he fed well. Because of her, Lucas was happy the whole week. It is almost like having a daugh
“I had the intention of sending someone else. But I had the feeling that I ought to come and bring you back.”While I was staring at my brother, I did not utter a single word. His concerns were overwhelming to me. I could understand his worries."Where is the cure?" I asked him.He raised a brow and said,"Do you want me to give you that right here?"As I looked around, I noticed that there were a few people who were looking at us.I went inside the hotel while holding his hand."Oh, no way. It is impossible to predict when someone may engage in a plan against me and turn the cure into poison. This place is full of adversaries for me, brother."When he heard my statements, he laughed. I could not deny the fact that Jason and I shared a wonderful bond. He was a brother who loved me very much and was the one who saved my life.If he had not saved me five years ago, I would have died in the forest. If he had not protected me like a shield, I would have become a laughing stock in our pack
Adrian's POVThe whole day passed in the hospital.The fact that I cared for my parents was something that I did not express to them. I was worried for my father. That was another case where I could not forgive him for destroying my life. However, he was my father. I don't want him to die.I cast a fleeting glance in the direction of Natalia, who was pacing around outside the operating room.I observed her the whole day. Something that really caught me off guard was the truth that she looked worried about my father.It was always her claim that we were divorced, wasn't it? Then why did she look after my father for the entire week?My mother told me how she went to the pack house and helped my father with medicines or his nutrition.I couldn't help but wonder how she was able to be so knowledgeable about them.In the last five years, I had never witnessed my parents being so happy and pleased as they were right now with Natalia.I could not change their thoughts about Natalia. They saw
Third POVAdrian looked at the road while following Natalia's car. He had no idea why he was trailing after her. But when his mother told him that she was leaving, he did not like that at all.How could she leave his pack without his permission?Suddenly, a few raindrops began to fall on the windshield out of nowhere. As he raised his eyes to the sky, he noticed that it was cloudy."It's raining," he muttered.The slippery ground mirrored what was happening in the sky. The loud thunderstorms echoed through the whole street.Adrian's eyes were on the red light emanating from Natalia's car.While following the car, he dialed her number. He wanted to stop her and ask her about many things in the hopes of getting an answer from her.He did not feel right about the thought of her leaving.He got mad when Natalia cut his calls every single time. Every unanswered call made him feel unknown worry. He found that woman's actions to be frustrating."Why is this woman not picking up my calls?" he
Adrian did not waste his time in gathering his breath. Without any hesitation, he got out of the car as quickly as he could.The buzz of the moment compelled him to move forward. The sound of raindrops seemed like nothing to him compared to the sound of his fast heartbeats. It was only the rain that witnessed such a disaster.In his rush to get to Natalia's car, he hardly paid attention to the damp ground beneath his feet.The world around him became hazy before him. His own pounding heart blurred the edges of reality.The closer he approached, the more he felt that it was shattering his heart, instilling fear in his mind, and frightening him from the inside.Natalia's car looked like a mystery in silence under the rain, and Adrian was desperate to unfold it."Natalia, can you hear me?" He called out.His voice came to her ears like a hand reaching out to rescue her from a dark imprisonment.Inside the car, Natalia was feeling a whirlwind of emotions.Her world, which was as fragile as
Natalia was stunned by the question. It was so painful that she could not even move her head to look at her hand because she was bleeding from her head, and she was in so much pain.To get a better look at what Adrian was talking about, she slowly raised her hand.But the moment she saw the scar, she was caught off guard.For what reason did the scar suddenly become visible after being concealed for so many years? Did something happen to her body? Why could her body not cover her scars?She did not want to talk about it. There was no need to pull the past into her life again.She never regretted it. But the current state of affairs would only serve to make her feel more unhappy about the situation. So, after so many years, she did not want to talk about it because she did not want to think about it again."I-I was attacked by rogues and w-woke up without that memory.""Whe-"The sound of a car's horn cut through Adrian's conversation. When he turned around, he noticed that Patric had
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
