"We have formed an additional research team to support the organic food industry project. According to the plan, the additional research team will join the main research team early next month. So—"

Oscar raised a hand, signaling Donald to stop his explanation. Donald fell silent, worried, wondering if he had just made a mistake.

Sweat began to form on Donald's face. He looked at his colleagues, then at Anne, but no one could give him any clue as to what was going on. Was Oscar angry about his latest explanation?

Donald tried to dismiss the frightening possibility. Making Oscar angry was the most dangerous thing in the world, especially if his anger was caused by incompetence. So, he always made sure to do his job as well as he could. Just like this time, although it seemed that Oscar did not see it that way.

Oscar's expression showed anger. His face looked stern and his jaw was set. Veins began to bulge on his forehead as sweat slowly trickled down.

    Era's voice trembled. So did her body. Her lips turned pale and her eyes began to redden.Seth clenched his jaw. He looked sharply at Gerald. "What do you think you're doing with Era, Robinson?""None of your business, Cooper. So, you better leave now. Era and I have important business to take care of right away.""Leave?" Seth scoffed and shook his head. His gaze became mocking. "You really are pathetic, Robinson. You really are a lowlife. Your behavior is truly disgusting."It felt like Gerald had never been insulted like that in his entire life, especially not to his face. It was reasonable that his emotions were boiling.Gerald snorted. He faced Seth arrogantly. "Who do you think you are, Cooper? How dare you talk to me like that? Do you not want to live anymore?""You should ask yourself that, Robinson. Do you want to die?"Gerald couldn't accept it. Seth's attitude provoked him, and besides, he was undoubtedly angry because his

    "Oscar." Era was startled. Her body froze as a natural reaction to the unexpected presence of Oscar. She could only blink, as if she needed time to make sure she was not seeing things. Oh, my goodness. How could Oscar be here all of a sudden? D-did Seth contact him? Era wasn't sure if Seth had contacted Oscar. They had been together since the warehouse and she hadn't seen Seth using his phone. Now she wondered if Oscar knew what had happened to her earlier. Era also noticed another oddity. Her eyes widened and the question slipped out of her mouth. "Why are you here, Oscar? Aren't you at The Palace? Don't you have work?" Era knew that Oscar was not only an Alpha in the werewolf world, but also the head of a large corporation called Xylvaneth, similar to the pack's name. His office was located in Sonnet Springs, a major district that played a crucial role in the city of Pondera E.V., serving as the heart of the country's larges

    They had just entered the room when Oscar pulled his hand away from Era's. Instead, he grabbed Era's wrist. "Oscar." Oscar pulled Era's hand, bringing her involuntarily closer. "What are you planning, Era? Are you trying to stop me from finding that bastard?" "Oscar," Era whispered and took a deep breath. Unfortunately, even the air she inhaled felt hot because of the heat emanating from Oscar's body. "I'm not planning anything. Besides, why are you looking for Gerald? Seth already beat him to a pulp." "I haven't beaten him yet." "He will definitely die if you beat him." "I'm sure that's the best fate for him, death. Touching you is a sign that he's tired of living in this world." Era rolled her eyes dramatically. "Oscar, I'm sure you don't need to discuss this issue anymore. Everything is settled and stop following your ego." "Follow my ego? How could you make fun of me, Era." "I'm not making fun of you; I'm tr

    One unexpected thing for Era was that Seth was still in her apartment unit even though three hours had passed. She had just come out of her room after calming down and wanted to get a glass of water to calm the remaining agitation in her chest. Her destination was the kitchen, and that's where she found Seth, sitting on the kitchen island with a bowl of snacks. "Seth." Seth smiled. "You finally came out of your room. I was waiting for you and wondering what you wanted to eat. So, I prepared some food. I hope you'll find something you like. Ah! You're a vegetarian, right?" "Yes, thank you." Seth nodded and Era decided to go to the dining area. She was quite curious about the menu Seth had prepared and was surprised to find the three-meter-long dining table full of food. Era gasped with her mouth wide open. "Seth." Footsteps made Era turn. Seth was approaching her, not forgetting his bowl of snacks. Seth's face looked innocent as he aske

    Philo frowned as he noticed Anne hurrying toward him. He saw the secretary's face pale, her lips quivering, and beads of sweat forming on her forehead. His immediate conclusion was that Oscar was in a bad emotional state.Philo's hunch was correct. Anne explained that Oscar had suddenly become angry and ended the ongoing discussion. Now Anne tried to find out the reason for Oscar's anger, including asking Philo.Philo remained silent, although he again speculated inwardly. He suspected that it had something to do with Era, and it turned out that his suspicion was correct once again.Before Philo could talk to Anne, his phone rang. It was Oscar giving him a clear order."Prepare the helicopter immediately, Philo. We're leaving for Celestial City in fifteen minutes."Philo didn't get a chance to say anything because Oscar abruptly ended the call. Still, it was enough of a hint for him. He sighed and reassured Anne,"Don't worry. Mr. Oscar is not angry with you."Anne furrowed her brow,

    The ride back to the palace was relatively safe and controlled. Philo, who had prepared to listen to Oscar's complaints, didn't hear a single one from the Alpha. Oscar seemed calm, occasionally whistling as he alternated between looking at his phone and the scenery along the way. It wouldn't be wrong to guess that Oscar was in a good mood right now.Philo narrowed his eyes. His speculation went further; this must be related to the phone call Oscar had received earlier.Era's name came to Philo's mind again, and he was one hundred percent sure that the call Oscar had received was indeed from Era. He let out a long sigh. Instead of complaining, he praised, albeit sarcastically. She was the one who made Alpha's mood bad and she was also the one who made Alpha's mood good again.They arrived at the palace. The car stopped in the courtyard and a guard opened the car door for Oscar. Oscar got out and so did Philo."You did a great job today, P

    Ever since the dramatic tragedy in the Lunaria Forest, Era's thoughts had been consumed by a restless night's sleep. To this day, she often asked herself, if she hadn't ventured into the Lunaria Forest, would any of this have happened? Would she have been able to live as peacefully as before?Then a thought made Era grimace. Memories reminded her that she had never really lived a peaceful life. Somehow, chaos always found a way to disrupt her existence.Era came to believe that even without the dramatic tragedy in the Lunaria Forest, her life would still be chaotic. It was only the form of chaos that might have been different.But that didn't mean that Era was experienced enough to deal with such situations. In fact, she never seemed to adapt, even though chaos had been a part of her life for as long as she could remember. So, it was understandable that she felt confused by the stares of her friends when she arrived on campus that morning.Era stopped her steps. As she looked around,

    Barbara cursed Madeline the whole way. Her cursing only stopped when she saw Gerald with his friends and then her tirade ended. She quickened her pace and approached them."Gerald."Gerald raised his face and sighed dramatically, closing his eyes. He cursed inwardly. How could Barbara come to the campus and see them in such a bruised and battered state?"Barbara."Barbara pulled out a chair and sat down. She looked briefly at Gerald's friends before they all scattered. Turning to Gerald, she asked, "What happened to you, Gerald? I heard this was all Cooper's doing?"Gerald felt ashamed. Never in his life had he been so beaten and bruised by defeat. It was understandable that his face was flushed. "The news you heard is true. This is all Cooper's doing."Barbara had hoped that the news she had heard was false. But all hope vanished when she saw the signs of struggle on Gerald's face and body. Unfortunately, Gerald's words were even more shock

    The sound of a heavy thud echoed as a brown-maned wolf was violently thrown to the arena floor. It whimpered quietly, but a second later it rose quickly.

    The previous nights had indeed been painful. Era was always worried about the condition of the people around her who were experiencing bad things because of her. But at least she could still sleep, even if she woke up feeling tired. Now, on the contrary, she couldn't even close her eyes for a minute.Era's feelings were truly uncertain. Even words like anxious, uneasy, worried, or scared couldn't describe her feelings now. She was adrift, trapped between waves that kept trying to pull her into an endless ocean.Era gave up. Trying to sleep was useless. Closing her eyes only made her more exhausted. So, she got out of bed.There was only one thing Era could do now, and that was to occupy herself. She had to distract her mind. She had to keep herself busy or the clock on the wall would explode from the constant staring.Era grabbed her pajama robe and quickly put it on. Then she left the room and wasn't surprised at all to find Aaron there."Luna," Aaron greeted as he folded the newspap

    Oscar was determined not to let Era's worries and fears come true. So, he made the most of the time he had left. He trained diligently, perfecting all the techniques and strategies he had learned over the years. He wouldn't let any weakness get in the way of his goal. He had to return with his life intact.However, Oscar didn't just focus on himself and the upcoming fight. He wouldn't neglect something far more important, even more important than his own life.Oscar gathered several people in his office. It was just before they left for Riverdale Bluffs.Everyone gathered. Tension hung in the air. Their faces were filled with apprehension."Tonight," Oscar began, looking at each of them. His expression showed utmost seriousness. "I am going to Riverdale Bluffs with Philo, Thad, and several warriors. Although this is a one-on-one fight between me and Nicholas, no enemy can be trusted. So, vigilance is paramount."Oscar was determined to fight with determination and not allow Nicholas t

    District Marindale, more precisely in the Falindor Forest—Ryloston Pack Palace.Freddy was inhaling the aroma of an 18-year-old single malt whisky that had just been poured into a rock-cut crystal glass by Peter McKay—watcher—when Bernard arrived. He knew that Bernard must have important news. But that didn't mean Bernard's arrival should interfere with his desire to relax.The crystal glass turned slowly. There was a soft clink as the ice hit the sides, creating faint ripples in the whisky. Freddy closed his eyes and savored the first sip. So did he, not wanting to miss a single taste sensation in every drop of whisky.Bernard, understanding Freddy's nature and character, decided to remain silent for a moment. He stood still, not saying a word until Freddy finally spoke."How is it, Bernard? Any news from Xylvaneth?"Bernard lifted his face slightly. He watched Freddy, eyes closed, still enjoying the whisky. "Nothing, Alpha."The spinning of the crystal glass stopped. Freddy's relaxe

    Getting enough rest was never the answer to Era's anxiety; she had proven that. No matter how often or how long she slept, it didn't make her feel better. In fact, it only made her feel worse. When she slept, she was trapped in nightmares, and when she woke up, she was faced with a grim reality."Oscar?"Era looked around to find the room silent. She was alone; Oscar was not there.A heavy feeling made Era catch her breath. It was as if hundreds of tons of weight were trying to render her powerless. However, she managed to move her body, albeit with great difficulty. She got out of bed and at the same time Aaron entered the room."Luna." Aaron approached and helped Era. "How are you feeling?"Era winced slightly. She sat down and Aaron quickly prepared a glass of warm water. "I've never felt so bad, Aaron." She accepted the warm water and took a few sips. "According to Landon, I'm fine. I just need to rest, but why does my body feel completely powerless?"Aaron took the glass back and

    Era remained silent as she felt the change in the atmosphere of the room. She cleared her throat, took a deep breath and scanned her surroundings. She saw Philo, who had just said something completely absurd. I am the last descendant of the Selunar Pack? Impossible.Era then turned to Dom. She remembered that just moments ago, maybe only a few minutes before, Dom had asked her about the possibility that her parents were not her biological parents. How could he ask such a strange thing?Finally, Era looked at Oscar. She paused for a moment before finally speaking in a low voice. "No, Oscar." She shook her head. "That's not me. I don't know anything about the Selunar Pack. It's completely unfounded gossip. I am the daughter of Amiass Ross and Sylvie Blair."This time, Oscar said nothing. He just stared at Era intently without blinking. His gaze was unreadable, which made Era feel uncomfortable.Era bit her lower lip. She tried to control herself as the discomfort made her act strangely.

    Day after day passed with increasing agony. The Palace of Xylvaneth was filled with an atmosphere of tension. Not only Era and Oscar, but everyone felt anxious and on guard for any possibility that could happen at any time.Era tried not to think about the terror the Ryloston Pack had caused. She knew that Oscar had already ordered Philo to go to the Ryloston Pack's palace. So, all she could do now was wait for news from Philo.Unfortunately, bad thoughts kept creeping in and trying to shake Era's composure. What if Philo's arrival only made the situation worse?Era.Era blinked. The voice of her wolf spirit echoed in her head. I am really scared.Calm down. There is nothing to be afraid of. Oscar will take care of everything.Era winced. I know that. Oscar will take care of everything, but I am really confused as to why this is happening. Dad and Dree have already been affected. What if the same thing happens to others?Era, calm down. I promise you; everything will be fine. This wil

    Philo understood, four in the morning was not a usual time to check out, but that was exactly what he did. All his belongings were neatly packed into a 20-inch suitcase, and then he left the room. He took the elevator down to the lobby and checked out with the desk clerk. Then he left the hotel.Philo's car moved smoothly through the still empty streets. His intention was to reach The Palace as quickly as possible. He had to report his findings as soon as possible.Philo stepped on the accelerator. The car's speed increased and suddenly his phone vibrated. At the same time, the dashboard screen lit up, indicating an incoming call, and the name displayed made him pull over immediately. He pressed the green button on the touchscreen and answered the call."Philo."Philo's brow furrowed slightly as he answered. "Hello, Alpha." Oscar's voice sounded different, indicating tension and anger. So, he asked quickly, "What is it, Alpha?""I order you to go to Ryloston Palace immediately."That

    It was not unusual for Oscar to reassemble Dom and the others after the attack on Irene. He questioned Irene thoroughly, making sure nothing was overlooked. He made sure that nothing was done hastily.Oscar wouldn't keep quiet, that much was certain. Irene wasn't hurt, but the actions of the Lynoria Pack were like a blatant confrontation, an act that shouldn't have happened. Therefore, he made sure there would be a response to any form of threat they faced."Not just intercept and attack," Oscar growled after hearing Irene's full report. His face reddened, indicating immense anger upon realizing that his emissary had been sneakily attacked. "Even a single word of mockery must be answered."If anyone understood the terrible consequences of war, it was Oscar. He had felt the sadness and agony of war, convinced that nothing good could come of it. Loss was an inevitable price to be paid by all parties. So, he vowed to avoid war as much as possible.Oscar hated war, but at the same time he
