Harper cried for two hours as if all her tears had dried up before she stopped sobbing. Taya mocked her with a smile. “I didn’t expect you to be such a crybaby.” Harper was not in the mood to joke with her. “Does Stella know you can’t see?” Taya shook her head. “I don’t want to bother her.” Hearing this, Harper felt very sad. She thought Taya probably felt that she would die soon, so she didn’t care whether her eyes worked. She stared at Taya’s dull eyes, suppressed her emotions, and asked hoarsely, “Taya, when did your heart start to fail?” Harper had checked and found that heart failure would take a long time to reach the late stage. Taya had to have known about this for a long time. Taya’s heart had declined before she was injured by the Knight family, which meant that Taya had experienced something that led to her entering the terminal stage.Taya struggled to stand up and said softly to Harper, “Do you remember the two kicks that Jackson gave me five years ago?” Harper suddenly r
Jackson seemed to understand why Taya said what she did. It turned out that her feelings for him and the way she thought about him never changed. She was going to die soon, and she was still thinking about him. But he thought she was cruel to him because she had Fallen in love with Griffon. A deep sense of guilt swallowed him, and his wolf Pawed at him. Sensing his helplessness, Taya squeezed his hand again. “Silas, can you go back?” Jackson touched her pale face and said softly, “No Matter what you say this time, I won’t leave. I want to stay by your side forever…” The word “forever” was too heavy for her to bear, but she didn’t want to hurt him. She took a deep breath of oxygen to ease the oppressive feeling. “I don’t have the strength to speak. Can I sleep for a while?” Jackson’s heart ached.He nodded. “Okay, go to sleep. I’ll stay by your side, okay?” She nodded in response and closed her eyes. Jackson sat motionlessly by the bed, staring at her pale face. After she had fallen as
Over the coming days, Taya spent more time sleeping than being awake. Even when she did wake up, she only said a few words and fell asleep again. Jackson sat by the hospital bed and didn’t move. His pale face and beard made him look exhausted. It was important for wolves to shift to maintain their vitality, and since Jackson would only leave Taya’s bedside to use the restroom, he definitely hadn’t shifted. Harper advised him to go for a run, but he refused. In the end, she decided to leave him alone and go find some soup for Taya to have when she woke up. Not long after Harper left, Taya woke up. Her limbs were so weak that she couldn’tmove. She could guess that her face was probably swollen and must look terrible. Taya felt Jackson’s grip on her hand. It was so tight that her heart skipped a beat. She asked in a hoarse voice, “Has the sun… risen?” Jackson nodded, but then he remembered that she couldn’t see, so he quickly replied softly, “Yes…” He looked out of the window. It was sno
Jackson leaned against the wall and walked into the emergency room. Taya’s petite body lay on the operating table, looking lifeless. If it weren’t for the fact that her eyes, which were covered by her long eyelashes, were still moving, she would have look dead. The blood on her face had been wiped clean, revealing her sickly pale complexion. She was as beautiful as ever, like spring flowers under the sunlight. Jackson knelt on one knee before the operating table and whispered in her ear. His gentle voice pulled her back to reality. She slowly opened her tired eyes and wanted to look at him last, but she still couldn’t see anything. “Silas…” She struggled to utter the word. Her consciousness was unclear, and her voice was indistinct. He moved closer to her lips and heard her call his name. “I’m here.” Jackson held her hand tightly, giving her a little strength.Taya took in the last breath of oxygen and told him in a stuttering whisper, “Take good care of Harper.” Taya had nothing else
Wait! Don’t let her die!” The voice sounded eerily close to Taya’s, and she was sure she was hallucina in her mind. “Who…who are you?” Harper’s voice sounded startled, and Taya could tell that something was off. The little bit of adrenaline from the moment kept her hanging onto her last thread of life. “I’m here to save her,” the woman said again. What do you mean? Do you have a heart?” Stella asked. Taya had forgotten she was still in the room. “No, I have something better.” That…made no sense. “I’m afraid the only thing that can help her at this time is to receive a new heart,” Stella said. “Who are you?” Harper asked in a gruff voice. Taya didn’t need to see her eyes to know that Harper’s wolf was on edge and that something was wrong. In a silent request to fill her in, Taya squeezed her hand. “She looks just like you,” Harper What? That made no sense.How could she look like Taya? Her brain spun in circles as she tried to contemplate what that could mean. As she was trying to figu
Complete chaos followed. Stella’s wolf didn’t recognize the scent of the shifters that stormed into the room. There were so many of them. Two huge male shifters grabbed Stella and pulled her out of the room and into the hallway. She struggled and shifted into her Lyman form, but even partially shifted, she was no match for two males that were twice her size. A couple of other ma*sive males grabbed Harper. Harper partially shifted as well, claws slashing and fangs bared. Harper almost managed to fight her way out of their grasp, slicing one of the males across his forearm. He didn’t even blink, and the men quickly grabbed hold of her even tighter, picking her up off th ground and carrying her out of the room and into the hallway with Stella. Harper’s wolf was desperate, but there was no way she could defeat the two males holding her.Especially after another one put a bag over her head as they carried her away. She listened for what she could, trying to hear if Taya screamed out, but i
Jackson was numb. None of this felt real. There was a part of him that had hoped there was some possibility of Taya living, of something happening at the last minute to keep her with him after they mated. But that wasn’t to be. When Eric heard the news of Taya’s death, he immediately rushed over. However, he did not expect to see such a scene. Jackson had always been a composed Alpha, and the wolf Eric was seeing right now was anything but Eric watched as Jackson paced around his condo in Arcadia in his massive wolf form. He couldn’t describe him with words. He only felt that Jackson had gone mad. He looked at Jackson’s bloodshot eyes and couldn’t help but feel emotional for his friend. Even in his wolf form, the grief Jackson was experiencing was coming off him in waves. “Jackson, pull yourself together… Your pack needs you.” Jackson’s body went limp, and he laid on the floor. His desperate amber eyes were empty as he stared off into nothing.Night fell, and there was a knock on the
Why don’t we kill her?” Taya listened to the strange men’s conversation, widening her eyes in disbelief. If she guessed correctly, this man had saved her. But if he had saved her, why did he want to kill her after she woke up? She was confused, but she had just woken up from a coma and couldn’t make a sound. She could only look at them with her eyes open. Even though she was staring right at them, they didn’t care. They just continued on talking about if they should kill her. For some reason, the more they wanted to kill her, the more she wanted to live. She tried her best to open her mouth, but she could only make a hoarse sound. When the man heard this voice, he waved at George in disgust. “Kill her. I’m not going to be bound to Rosalie’s stupid decision. And no one has come looking for her, so they clearly haven’t figured it out.” Figured what out? She thought. George turned around and went out. Was he going to get something to kill her? Taya felt that she could be saved, didn’t fe
Neil received the item from the owner of the goldsmith shop. He originally wanted to give it to Taya and at the same time, show off. Who knew that Alpha Knight would be here! He had such bad luck! The smile on Neil’s face disappeared. “How dare you!” Neil was disappointed when he saw Griffon. How were they going to have fun now that he was here? The designers, who followed behind Neil, froze when they saw Griffon too. The smiles and excitement immediately faded. They did not even dare to enter the door. They stood at the door, pushing and shoving each other. “Hey Neil, after you…” When Neil saw Griffon, he was extremely humble. He waved his hands desperately, “No, no, the young ones should enter first…” Taya glanced at the designers who were afraid to come in, then at Griffon who exuded a terrifying aura. She saioicd in a low ve, “Why don’t you go out first? I’ll take care of things here first before going to the hospital.” Griffon let go of his balled fists, which were clenched due t
Are you alright?”After Harper finished talking with Preston, she immediately went to the office. She quickly washed up and changed her clothes. When she came out, she overheard Mr. Jenkin’s conversation. He said that Griffon caught Johnny flirting with Taya and that they were fighting downstairs. There were also guns involved. Harper was so frightened that she did not even have time to put on her high heels. She quickly wore her slippers and she rushed down in a hurry with her hair still wet. When Taya heard Harper’s voice, she hurriedly pushed away Griffon, who was about to kiss her, and turned to face Harper who was rushing towards her in a panic. “I’m fine. Be careful, don’t run.” Harper rushed to Taya and quickly examined her just to make sure she was alright. Seeing that she was indeed unharmed, Harper immediately relaxed. “I was scared to death. I thought something happened to you. My heart was literally about to leap out of my chest!” Taya raised her hand and comforted her. “Do
Griffon hugged Taya tightly as he stared deeply at Johnny with cold, deadly eyes. Griffon grabbed Johnny’s wrist hard, almost squeezing it. If he exerted any more strength, Johnny’s wrist would definitely dislocate. Johnny couldn’t struggle and he became irritated. He glared at Griffon and shouted. You are courting death!” After he finished speaking, he raised his other hand and motioned for his bodyguards to come forward. When Taya, who was nestled in Griffon’ arms, saw the group of bodyguards running towards them, her heart started pounding in his chest. “Griffon, you have to go now.” Listening to the conversation between the two, it was obvious that they knew each other and they had grudges. Griffon did not have any bodyguards with him at this time, so he might not be able to take down Johnny and his team of bodyguards sorry, Griffon suddenly lowered his head and gave her a rea*suring look. “Don’t worry.” As soon as he said those words, he lifted his leg and kicked fiercely at the
Harper’s heart trembled as she saw the bodyguards’ hands reaching for the back of their waist once again, but she forced herself to stay calm and began to make up nonsense. “She’s in Aronland with Mr. Yardley. If you want to look for her, go to Aronland…” That’s right, he should go ahead and deal with Amon. Harper wanted to see who would come out on top. Upon hearing this, Johnny’s repressed anger burst out of his dark eyes. “I found out that she had returned from Aronland, and the first person she met up with was you, right here!” The first time he came here, he was actually looking for Harper to ask about Rosalie’s whereabouts. However, he was so furious at the waiter that he couldn’t speak. After adjusting his mood, he revisited the place. However, he never expected that Harper would dare to play dumb. This was simply unbearable! He stood up out of the blue, and his tall and burly figure towered Harper, whose height reached his chest despite being in heels. Stare at Harper. “Ms. Du
Harper smiled coquettishly. “It has nothing to do with you.” Nothing to do with him? Preston had always been a gentleman towards women but at that instant, his face darkened as he spoke. “Harper Duke, are you sure you want to provoke me?” Harper felt that he was reversing right and wrong, and her face also darkened. “Please get it straight. You’re the one who came to provoke me with another woman.” “That’s because you rejected me without thinking the other day! The indignation in Harper’s eyes turned into confusion in no time. Preston had had many women before, but he had never been serious with any of them. He would never lower his status to try to reconcile after breaking up with them. But that night, he hugged her like a pup and nuzzled her neck. “I miss you a little. Please don’t leave me, okay?” She thought he was just talking nonsense due to the alcohol in him, but she never expected him to be serious. Harper was surprised for a moment, but then regained her composure… Regardles
Taya walked up to the second-floor bedroom without turning on the lights. By the dim light, she could see the Koenigsegg downstairs and the man inside. Through the half wound window, Taya noticed that he was typing on his phone. A few seconds later, Taya’s phone vibrated. She took out her phone from her pocket and opened WhatsApp. She saw a photo he sent, a picture of the two of them taken at the seaside. He typed her a message with only a few words: “Don’t delete the picture. Keep it as a memory.” A memory…Why would it be a memory? Taya wanted to reply to him, but she noticed that Griffon had his profile picture to a picture of her. Another message came in. “Taya, I love you. Goodnight.” After thinking for a few seconds, Taya replied, “Goodnight…” The next morning, Taya received a bouquet of roses from him, which was delivered by Andre. He didn’t come himself. Andre explained, “Ms. Palmer, Alpha Knight has several international meetings to attend today, so he asked me to deliver BIKI
Rebecca had shown up just to meet Taya. Having met her, she thus spun around and left. Looking at her graceful and composed back, Taya, who was so nervous that her heart leapt to her throat, gradually relaxed… She thought that the members of the Knight pack would despise her, look down on her, and even speak ill of her, just like Shelly. Unexpectedly, Griffon’ eldest sister was so gentle and elegant, without any arrogance whatsoever. Even if she did, it was only because of the way she had been raised in a rich pack, as well as the way she viewed the world, which was saturated by the knowledge she had obtained. Griffon lowered his head and asked, “When will you come back to the Knight pack’s house with me for the family dinner?” Taya raised her clear eyes to stare at his flawless face and thought to herself, “In the future.” At that moment, she had yet to reach a position where she could be a proper match for him and attend the Knight pack’s banquet.He didn’t get a response from her,
He brought Taya to the jewelry area. All he did was ask if there was anything she liked. Taya said no so he asked the shop a*sistant to send the latest collection of diamond jewelry to the villa without asking any further questions. The shop a*sistant glanced at Taya with envy, then replied respectfully, “Yes, Alpha Knight…” Taya, who was led out of the jewelry area by Griffon, stared at his back in a daze. He was sending her cars, flowers, and accessories. Was he going to send her clothes next? As Taya expected, Griffon took her to a clothing department selling haute couture garments. This time, he didn’t even ask for Taya’s opinion and directly asked the shop a*sistant to pack up a bunch of clothes. Seeing the shop a*sistants frantically helping her pack clothes, shoes, and bags, Taya rubbed her forehead in helplessness. She lowered her head and looked at Griffon, who was kneeling on one knee and helping her try on a pair of crystal high heels. “Who taught you all these tricks?” Con
Right then, the National Space Administration was funding her project with about 10 million dollars. It was enough to repay Neil for the favor he had done her. If not for his “eloquent” and “careful” teaching over the past couple of months, she wouldn’t have improved so fast. After finishing all of that, Taya turned on the computer. She clicked on various construction-related software, and self-study videos. She was a design student, so she had learned how to use all those software in school. She only had to review the process a few times, and she should be able to remember it. She was rushing to complete a project at that moment, and all she had was a sketch. After completing her sister’s projects, she had to continue taking on other projects as well. Since that was the case, she had to go through the entire process from sketches to post-production renderings. That way, she could grasp every link faster and more clearly. She continued studying until ten o’clock. In an attempt to take
