"Bullshit!"Eric muttered in anger. His jaw clenched as he watched Adrian get on the stage.Alpha Seth went to greet him while shaking hands with him."I can't believe this! How can this even be possible, boss?" Damia asked me in a disappointing tone.All of my company managers lowered their heads. I saw defeat in their eyes, which boiled my blood."Alpha Adrian, please say something," the beta of the Storm Forest Pack said to him.At that time, Alpha Wade handed Adrian a bouquet of different flowers to congratulate him.My eyes widened as something reflected in my mind. When I shifted my gaze from the bouquet to Adrin, I noticed him smirking at me.I just wanted to smack on his nasty smirk.That time, I realized that he was the person who sent me the bouquet of red roses last night.Adrian looked away from me and started to speak."Good evening, everyone. I, Alpha Adrian, never forget my pledges to my pack. When I became the head Alpha of my pack, my father asked me to keep all the a
I stared at him with displeasure. This man had nothing to do in his life except mocking me. There were so many women in every pack who had ex-husbands, but their situation was not like mine. It was because my ex-husband was the head Alpha of another pack. Since I was an Alpha's daughter, I had to run into him in different situations and occasions.Adrian did not break eye contact. I could not read his eyes, just like I was never able to read many years ago. Why was he so unpredictable? What was his motive? To what extent would he be willing to destroy me and my pack simply because I had damaged his ego?"Natalia?"The voice of Eric could be heard coming from behind Adrian. After moving away from me, Adrian turned his attention to Eric.Eric gazed at him and then at me. "What are you doing here? Everyone is waiting outside for you."Adrian scoffed at him. "Can't you see two CEOs talking? How can you interrupt us? Where are your manners, Beta Eric?""One of the CEOs isn't worth talking
Adrian's POVI had to spend the whole day in a meeting with Alpha Wade. There was a discussion that was held in the meeting room. We had signed the papers to seal the deal.Alpha Wade was happy with the project. People believed that I had gotten the deal. However, the reality was that Alpha Wade was the one who ended up getting the deal from me. I allowed him to take the opportunity to save his pack from any wars by proving my pack fighters to his pack if they would get in danger."Thank you so much, Alpha Adrian. It's a great opportunity to work with you. I hope you will take care of my younger brother.""Sure," I replied, glancing at Alpha Seth. He looked calm and calculative. Though he was older than me, he was younger than my experience.When the meeting was over, Alpha Wade invited me to the success party."I don't want to attend the party," I told Alpha Wade directly.I was not in the mood to attend any party. This project could be a dream for many packs but not for me. So, I di
My phone began to vibrate within my pocket as soon as I walked into the hotel entrance. For the past few hours, I hadn't paid any attention to it.After a brief glance, I noted that Beta Eric was having a conversation with one of their managers in the lobby area. He did not notice me at all. After getting into the elevator, I made my way to my room at the hotel.I was staying in the same hotel where the people from Blue Blood Pack were staying. They were not aware of it.When I entered the room, my eyes were drawn to a man who was sitting on the couch and making a phone call.The man rose up and turned his attention to me."Adrian, where were you?""Why are you in my room, Patric?" I asked, walking to the closet."Bro, are you even serious? This is not our pack. You are a head Alpha. What if someone attacks you? I was losing shit just because of you."I turned my head at him. “Your Alpha is able to fight off any assault that comes his way. Don't freak out.”I retrieved a suit from the
I tightened my fists after hearing him. I wanted to kill this man right here.'How dare he think something like that?'Just before I could raise my hand on him, someone grabbed my fist and said,"Alpha, I was looking for you.""Not you again." I glared at Patric as I said it.Did he keep a watchful eye on me everywhere? How could he come to stop me in every situation?"I am your beta. I know how to take care of my Alpha," he said to me in a hushed tone, turning to Beta Eric."Hello, Beta Eric."They shook hands with each other like professional men. I kept glaring at Patric when he excused Eric."How dare you come between me and that deviant man?""Deviant man? Have you gone crazy? Thank me later for stopping you earlier. You almost killed him. Do you think he will stay alive if you claw him?"I looked away from him and shifted my gaze to Eric, who walked to Natalia."How can she even choose someone like him?""Then who should she choose? You?"I grimaced at Patric. He was talking too
Natalia's POVI was baffled by Adrian's question. I looked into his eyes and noticed rage. There was a turmoil of reaction that could be seen in his behavior."What do you mean?" I asked him.He tried to move toward me, but I pushed my hand against his chest and prevented him from approaching me."Don't come near me. I am feeling disgusted."His body froze as he let out a low growl. "Disgusted by what?""By you."I observed that his jaw was tightening, as if he was trying to keep his wrath under control."What do you want, Adrian? Why do you keep bothering me? Didn't we talk with each other on the phone last time? You said you hated me, and I accepted it. In fact, our feelings are mutual. Now let me go." I tried to talk to him calmly.However, he did not like my words. He grabbed my hand and moved it away from his chest.I used the other hand to make an attempt to shove him. Therefore, he grabbed that hand as well and pinned both of my hands over my head.My eyes widened because of hi
Adrian left, leaving me in shock. I touched my neck and rubbed my finger over the skin, which turned swollen.I rushed to the door close to where I was standing. I opened the door and saw that it was a private room. I dashed over to the bathroom attached to it.The moment my eyes fell on my neck in the mirror, I gasped and covered my mouth in shock.Indeed, there was a hickey on my neck!"Adrian Miller, you're just a scoundrel," I muttered while looking at the hickey."How will I conceal it? How? My bag is not with me. I can't go outside like this."I pulled my hair in anger. I was getting so angry at him that I wanted to break the mirror in anger.I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself. Even if I thought about a solution, I could not find it. I was wearing a sleeveless and backless dress. There was no way to hide my neck.I placed my hands on the counter of the sink and cursed Adrian Miller."Who knows what got over him? Why does he look so strange? Since yesterday, he has sta
In a state of worry, I rubbed my forehead."Adrian Miller, I despise you so much," I murmured in a frustrated tone.In order to destroy my reputation, he planned this entire tactic.How could he spread such cheap news in public? Did he not care about his sweetheart? Or did he think she would not get the news?The thought occurred to me, and I couldn't help but smirk. I dialed a number."Hello?" a young woman spoke out."Where is your boss? Give her the phone."When the woman heard me, she was taken aback.“Who are you?”"She knows me."The woman handed her phone to her boss. It was then that I heard the voice of the person that I had been hoping to hear."Who's speaking?""Your shameless boyfriend's ex-wife," I replied with a grin, as if she could see me.Lynda was quiet for a brief moment. I assumed she could not understand how I got her maid's number.That day, when she proved me wrong in front of Adrian and his parents, I inspected the number from which she sent me a message. It wa
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
