Chapter 69: BlushCrystal’s POV[Ever since you left, everything became dull. The nights without you became cold, and the sun wasn’t warm as when you were here. When will I be able to see you again?] There is a stuffy feeling inside me, slowly wringing my heart making me unable to breathe properly. I clutched the letter and held it close to my chest. “Ohh… Oliver…” I could only utter his name over and over again in disappointment – I am disappointed at myself and everything that I did. I know, and I had always felt that.All this time, I thought he… never thought of me that way. We were in an arranged marriage, and there was no love between us from the start. I still remember the first time I met him. A tall man entered the restaurant and sat down in front of me. He looked straight at my eyes and revealed a sunny smile. At that moment, I thought that we could work out the marriage even if it was arranged. I looked forward to the wedding day with an anxious heart. On our wedding d
Chapter 70: Room 209Oliver’s POVI hope that Crystal won’t notice how my hands trembled when I took her in my arms. Just as before, her warm body calmed my mind and soul. It was as if she was my safe haven. All these years, I had no idea what I was looking for nor what I was lacking. It was only when I held her in my arms again and she hugged me back that I realized – I missed her more than how much I lied to myself. Our past was my mistake, but I won’t let it hinder me from seeking her forgiveness. Now that I was given a second chance, I wouldn’t carelessly throw it away in the dump.“Where should we go next?” Crystal nibbled on her food and asked me. How cute. “We will visit the others. I am so worried about them. It took us longer to leave the dark side than what we expected.”“Alright.” “But tonight,” a playful smile floated on my lips, “let’s have a good rest first.”“Okay. I was so tired from running all day and all night.” After we ate our midnight dinner, I washed the di
Chapter 71: Deliberately LeadingThird Person’s POV The four people stood facing each other, surprise clearly written on their faces. They took deep breaths one after another and pulled their fighting instance.Draven dusted his hands and slumped down on the sofa, massaging his forehead while he did. Snow approached the two people and looked at them from head to toe. “Sorry for that. We thought you were someone else.” Crystal waved her hand and patted Snow’s shoulder, “It’s fine. How have you been?” Snow shrugged her shoulders, “Well, far from alright. I don’t know when it started but werewolves started attacking us out of the blue. They don’t attack Draven, but they seem to be going after Nayara.” Oliver furrowed his eyebrows. Then he started narrating about what happened after they parted ways and how they got to the dark side. Nayara and Lumara were called as well, filing them in with the details. This group discussion excludes Jethro, as he couldn’t be reached with either Cr
Chapter 72: Cutie PatootieThird Person’s POV“What are you laughing at?” Lumara held her stomach and couldn’t stop laughing, “I love your expression. Hahaha, I wish I had opened my camera to capture it. Priceless!” Crystal furrowed her eyebrows, not understanding what Lumara was saying. Not long after, Snow, Draven and Oliver sat down with the two of them. Oliver: “Just like Nayara said, in order to get rid of those werewolves, we need bait. Snow would disguise as Nayara and go out of the hotel. They’ll surely follow her. We can also use this time to go back to report back to the Chief.” Draven nodded, “As we talked about it earlier, we should execute this swiftly and as soon as possible.” Crystal agreed, “Devils are still chasing after us, and we have a short time left. If we get to the Immortals before they can get to us, our safety is almost guaranteed. The land of humans is really perilous.” Lumara stopped laughing and turned serious, “What about Jethro? Do we need to cont
Chapter 73: Trying to Escape? Third Person’s POVOutside the hotel, three men sat around the table waiting. They didn’t move the drink in front of them and kept their eyes on the doorway. People come and go, but none of them was the person they were waiting for. A few minutes later, a lady with pink hair and wearing a red dress came out. She moved the hat on her head as if afraid that she would be seen. She turned left and quickly walked away. The men took a sip of their drinks and got up, then followed the lady in red. The lady seemed to feel them following her as she quickened her footsteps. Afraid that they would lose her, they quickly followed after her and closed the distance between them. The lady walked into an alleyway and took many turns, making the men dizzy. After turning to the left one more time, they saw the lady looking up on the wall – it was a dead end. They grinned thinking that they finally have the chance to get her as planned. They walked out from where they
Chapter 74: Chief ImmortalThird Person’s POVSeven of the twenty men were trapped inside the array. They were trapped inside like they were in a cage. They couldn’t get out no matter how much they struggled. The man who shouted ‘monsters’ realized that they were sent to a suicidal mission. Using his claws, he tried to pry open the array. However, the array acted like some kind of coarse paper, filing the tip of his nails as if he was getting his nails done. His face crumpled into an ugly expression. He turned to his comrades and yelled, “Everyone, stop resisting! The array wants to eat us!” At that, everyone looked at him with fear in their eyes. The man stared at the array and recognized it. The symbols drawn were exclusively used by werewolves. In an instant, he understood that the man with the furry jacket was a werewolf, one that was way stronger than them. They were just a group of omega that couldn’t even hold a candle to the Alpha in front of them. At that moment, they fe
Chapter 75: Bald HeadThird Person’s POVAfter cleaning up the place, they didn’t go back to the hotel they were staying at and decided to go to Oliver’s place. Although this was a risky move, the safest place is in plain sight.Oliver’s father wasn’t home when they arrived, and only the servants were there. When the servants saw this powerful group, they tactfully retreated and went away as if they were never there in the first place.The six people sat around the table, with Crystal helping Snow to the sofa. Oliver put down refreshments after they sat down, but no one was in the mood to eat.Lumara put down the space pouch, taking out the men inside. They were now all
Chapter 76: In The ClubThird Person’s POVThe loud pop music inside the nightclub blasted their ears as soon as they entered the door. Snow and Lumara were ready to grace the dancefloor, while Nayara and Crystal wore the same expression of despair on their faces. Snow looked back at the two of them. Because of the loud music, she spoke in a loud voice, “You look like pigs in the slaughterhouse. Smile wide!” The two tried their best, but it only seemed like Snow was bullying them. She shook her head in defeat and helplessly dragged them inside. According to Oliver, Jethro frequents this nightclub. It’s because this place was his in the first place. Because this is his own place, his father couldn’t say anything about him going to a nightclub. Going up on the second floor, they found several rows of private rooms. Oliver led them to the farthest one from the stair and opened the door for them. Crystal was the last to enter. When she looks at Oliver, her eyes seem to be telling som
