Everyone applauds while looking at Natalie, who is standing in the middle with her beautiful smile; she looks stunning at this point with her red curvy gown, partnered by her red mini bag and red heels. Her lips are also red, and her hair is now long, blonde, curly, and wavy; it suits her style today, and everyone in the room is admiring her beauty, including Norwan, who is straightly looking at and watching her action.“I never thought she would look like this… she’s beautiful as ever,” Norwan said with his smile and smiled while watching her, but those smile faded away as he saw Chad put his hand to Natalie’s waist and kiss her cheeks, this boils his blood as he saw what that Beta did to Natalie. Norwan was about to stand when he suddenly remembered something.“What the heck is happening to me?” He asked himself and looked at Natalie again; she was smiling with the guest talking to her.“I forgot, she's no longer my Luna anymore.” He smirks because of what he’s thinking right now. H
Natalie woke up early in the morning to get ready to go to her company day; this was the very first time she would start to work for their company as his father also gave all their family businesses to her after the ritual they did to make Natalie the new alpha of the clan. Natalie looks to Chad, sipping his coffee and driving the car. Chad will drop her off at the company building before he starts the mission given by Natalie.“Are you sure you will do the mission?” Natalie asked, so Chad turned to look at her and smiled as he nodded. Natalie sighed and looked out the window.“But why? You’re my boyfriend already, Chad. You do not need to take a mission given by me.” Natalie said that Chad forced Natalie to give him the latest mission as he wanted to do that job and take it personally as that job was connected to him. Natalie can’t say NO to him because she knows that if she does that, Chad can still do the mission with or without her permission.“I told you I wanted to take that mis
Norwan rushed to his office after reading the document that Trever had given; he was mad and wanted to hurt someone just because of what he had read. As he arrived at his office, he immediately informed his secretary to call Natalie's office and set an appointment to meet her that day. After that, he sits in his office chair facing the documents referring to the termination of the contract."What is she planning to do? Don't tell me she will terminate our business partnership just because of our past? This is ridiculous!" Norwan says to his mind and tries to calm himself, but he can't because he knows what would happen if Natalie terminates their partnership with Norwan's business. This may have caused Norwan's business to fall in sales and some investors to cancel their shares and put them in Natalie's office.Natalie's father, Grego, was known to be the most influential and powerful Alpha in town. Adding to this is that their pack was also known to be the most influential pack in th
Norwan is stunned when Natalie calls him by his full name; this is the very first time that Natalie calls him using his full name. He was also stunned while looking at Natalie; it seemed like Natalie was a very different person. From the red lipstick on her lips, short brown curly hair, and how she dressed. These things Natalie hadn’t done before. Norwan also remembered what Natalie told him about her hair.“When will you cut your hair? It’s too long.” Norwan asked, so Natalie smiled at him and put down the utensils she held.“I will only cut my hair if we break up and I move on from you,” Natalie said with a wide smile.“That’s ridiculous. Why would you even do that?” Norwan asked, so Natalie chuckled and walked in his direction.“Because I believe that my hair is the witness to how our relationship started, and all our memories resemble my hair.” She answered, which made Norwan smile secretly.Norwan swallowed after he remembered what Natalie said to him.“What can I help you? Mr. N
Natalie smirks as she looks at Norwan, who stuns in his place, while looking at Natalie with his shocked eyes. He cannot believe what Natalie wants. Norwan also realizes something that this scenario happened already when he told Natalie to kneel down to Cora because of the accident. Norwan suddenly remembers how Natalie begged him to believe her during that time, but he never did.“Is she doing a revenge right now?” Norwan asked himself. “No, I knew she can’t do that thing. She’s too soft to do that.” Norwan said to himself and smiled bitterly while looking at Natalie.“Why would I even do that?” Norwan said and scratched his head. “I didn’t do anything to be served to kneel down in front of a lowly woman like you,” Norwan added and smirked after he insulted Natalie. Natalie just smiles sweetly at him and starts to pour her glass of wine again before she looks at Norwan seriously.“Then, there’s nothing to discuss now, Mr. North. My decision is now final.” Natalie said and sipped her
Norwan went home after what happened to him in Natalie’s office; this time, he concluded something to his mind while driving home. That is, Natalie really changed, and he thinks she will be why his hard work to make his business big caused him to slowly put it back to where it all started.Before he entered his house, he took a deep breath and started to walk inside; as he went inside, he saw Cora watching a movie with his sister, Dixie. He knows the two's bond and knows that Drixie wants Cora to be his Luna.“You’re home; you are too early today, huh,” Drixie said and drank her wine. Cora looked to Norwan’s place and smiled as soon as she saw him. She stood up and went in front of Norwan.“Why are you early today, Norwan? Does something happen?” Cora asked. Norwan smiled at her, went to the couch, and removed his tie.“I just wanted to sleep early today,” Norwan said; he doesn’t like to tell them what really happened because he knows that Drixie will start to say words he doesn’t lik
“WHAT DID YOU JUST SAY?!” Amanda’s voice echoed to Norwan’s mansion. She just sighed, and Drixie just rolled her eyes and sipped her wine glass while Cora watched the three of them while she sat next to Amanda. Cora could feel Amanda’s anger right now, so she tilted her head to look at Amanda and swallowed as she saw Amanda’s red, angry face.“This can’t be true,” Amanda said and looked severely at Norwan. “You know what will happen if you let this thing happen, Norwan,” Amanda added. After she heard about the termination of the partnership, she couldn't stop herself from shouting in anger. She’s one of those people who was given an opportunity to be popular after the collaboration of his son’s business with Natalie’s family business. If the termination of cooperation between Natalie and Norwan happened then this might affect her image to every person who recognizes her as the ‘Mother of popularity,’ and she doesn’t want to happen that.“Do something to make her sign another contract
3 DAYS AFTER NATALIE LEFT THE TOWNNorwan sighed and looked to his ceiling while thinking of something; he couldn’t understand what was happening to him lately. His patience began to shorten, and he was always mad, even at small things. In addition, he always looks for Natalie’s smell whenever he wakes up in his bed every morning. It’s been three days since Natalie left, but Norwan can still feel her presence in his mansion whenever he looks at any angle of his own house; he also accidentally calls Cora Natalie, and Cora begins to think that Norwan is looking for his ex-luna.Norwan tilts his head to the right side of the bed where Natalie always sleeps; he sighs and smiles a little as he sees their picture on the mini table beside his bed. “Why am I feeling like this?” Norwan asked himself to sit on his bed and look back at their wedding photo.“Why do I feel like I miss her?” He added.After an hour, Norwan leaves his mansion and goes to the bar where his friend Mario works. Then h
Until now, Norwan couldn’t believe his eyes. The woman he had killed—the woman he had sacrificed so much to eliminate in order to save Natalie—was now standing in front of him, alive. She was here. And not just a shadow of the past, but in full force, with an army behind her. It felt like a cruel joke, a twist in time he couldn’t comprehend. Is she the one behind all this? How did she know we were here? Every question in his mind spiraled into another. She wasn’t just some ghost of his past—she was at the heart of it all, a living nightmare, and everything he had fought for seemed to be crumbling because of her.Cora’s voice broke through his spiraling thoughts, sweet and deceptively soft, like a velvet-covered blade. “Aren’t you happy to see me again, darling?” Her words danced through the air as she looked at him, her eyes sparkling with cruel amusement.Norwan didn’t flinch. His gaze was as cold as the steel under his skin, emotionless and unwavering. He stood like a statue, unread
The two healers from both clans worked swiftly, their hands glowing with energy as they focused on Natalie, who lay unconscious, blood seeping from her wounds. Beside them stood Don Grego, his face pale and twisted with concern. His eyes darted between the healers and his daughter, and yet, a cloud of confusion clouded his mind. He couldn’t understand why he was there, or what had led to this moment. The only memory he could grasp was of being at the hospital, talking to Natalie—until someone had approached him, a woman with strange questions, and then... nothing.“Goddamn, what’s happening? Why are my people here?” Don Grego’s voice trembled, the urgency of the situation growing heavier with each word. Norwan, who had been silently watching the scene unfold, turned sharply at his question. His concern for Natalie matched Don Grego's, but there was a gnawing feeling of unease. Why couldn’t the man remember?“Are you sure you don’t remember anything?” Norwan asked, his voice firm, thou
“I want to talk to her,” Norwan said, his voice firm yet laced with frustration. He looked toward the opposing camp, where Natalie’s people stood, prepared for battle.Natalie swallowed hard, shaking her head in response. “You can’t talk to her like this, Norwan,” she warned, her voice low, filled with tension. She gestured to the two armies that stood poised for conflict, a single misstep could send them spiraling into chaos. “Not with everything on the line. If you make a move now, my men will see it as a threat to me One wrong word, one wrong gesture, and we’re at war.”Norwan’s gaze hardened as he processed her words. He wanted to speak to her, to settle things without bloodshed, but he knew the risks. He couldn’t afford to make a mistake.“You can’t approach her right now,” Natalie continued, her voice softer but urgent. “It’s too dangerous—for your safety, for all of us.”Norwan’s eyes met hers, and he let out a heavy sigh. He knew exactly what she meant. He couldn’t walk into e
Norwan blinked twice, his gaze locked on Natalie’s face as though trying to decode the impossible."Are you serious?" His voice was low, strained with disbelief. Natalie simply nodded, her brow furrowing in response.“She’s with us because your mother and my father have... a relationship," Natalie’s words hung in the air, heavy with implications. The sheer absurdity of it hit Norwan like a sudden, unexpected gust of wind, causing a laugh to escape his lips.“Are you kidding me?” He leaned back, disbelief swirling in his chest, unable to process the truth she was suggesting.Natalie’s expression remained serious, her eyes steady as she shook her head, her throat working to swallow the weight of what she was saying. "I know it's hard to believe," she continued, her voice softer now. "But just look over there, at my father."Norwan followed her gaze, his eyes scanning the crowd until they landed on Don Grego—standing tall, calm, his presence commanding. But it wasn’t just Don Grego that
“I don’t understand...” Natalie’s voice trembled as she looked at Norwan, her gaze searching for any hint of jest or mischief. Surely, she had misheard. Norwan couldn’t be serious. He must be toying with her, playing some cruel game. Her heart twisted with disbelief.“My father would never—” she faltered, the words dying on her lips as Norwan’s icy stare cut through her like a blade.His silence was a frozen ocean, deep and impenetrable. He didn’t blink. Didn’t flinch. His lips were set in a hard line, and for the first time, his face wasn’t just cold—it was unforgiving.“He did.” His voice was a quiet storm, the words sharp as broken glass. There was no trace of doubt in his tone.Natalie’s breath hitched as the weight of his words crashed into her chest. She looked deeper into his eyes, hoping—praying—she’d find some trace of the warmth she once knew there. But instead, she saw only a storm. A storm that mirrored the chaos roiling inside her.“Not my father…” she whispered, almost t
The air was thick with the unsaid words between them, each breath Natalie took carrying a weight too heavy for her fragile chest. A single tear slid down her cheek, betraying the storm inside her heart. She hadn’t expected this—hadn't expected him to look at her like that, with that depth of silent torment that mirrored her own. But there it was, a gaze that sliced through her resolve. Norwan’s eyes softened, just for a moment, before he swiftly masked it with cold indifference. It was a subtle movement, a swallow of shame, a flinch as his hands twisted behind his back to hide what he could not control—his emotions.Natalie’s whisper floated between them like a quiet confession, “It’s nice to see you again.”The words hung in the air, as delicate as her heart. But Norwan, the stone he had become, didn't let the softness of her voice reach him. His jaw tightened, his gaze shifting with a sharpness that cut through her like the very coldness in his words. But it wasn’t her he was angry
“Norwan…” Natalie calls again, her voice a blend of desperation and authority, but this time, it’s different. This time, she takes a step forward, the weight of every second of silence between them pulling her toward him. But before she can take another step, her father’s grip tightens around her wrist, pulling her back. “Don’t,” Don Grego warns, his voice cold, steely. His fingers feel like chains around her, but Natalie fights against them, her eyes burning with an anger she’s never felt before. She jerks free, glaring at him with all the hatred she’s kept hidden for years, the truth of what he’s done flooding her chest like a storm. “What are you going to do, Natalie?” he asks, the question almost mocking, as if he already knows the answer, as if he thinks she’s too weak to act. Her chest heaves with rage, but her answer is steady, every syllable sharp with defiance. “I’m going to talk to him.” Her gaze snaps back to Norwan, his form standing rigid, eyes cast downward. He loo
The cold wind stung Natalie’s face, but she barely noticed. Her eyes remained fixed on the scene across the border, where the tension in the air was thick. Horses pawed the ground, their hooves clattering like distant thunder. Male wolves, their eyes glowing with readiness, paced around the camp, while men, their hands resting on the barrels of their guns, stood vigilant. The war had come, and it was no longer a distant worry. It was here.But amidst the chaos, there was one thing that kept her grounded—one person. Norwan. She had been searching for him all day. Her heart raced, but she couldn’t let fear overwhelm her. Not yet. Not until she found him.Her breath came out in sharp, visible clouds, blending with the smoke of the fires rising from the other side of the border. She tried to steady her nerves, reminding herself why she was here. Why she had to find him.Did she feel hope? Fear? Both? She couldn’t tell. But she knew one thing—she couldn’t go back without him.Natalie sighe
“I already expected this to happen.” Natalie stopped walking as soon as she heard her father’s voice from the entertainment room. She slowly and silently crept closer to the door to listen to the conversation.“For sure, this has something to do with Natalie,” Don Grego added, causing Natalie to frown.“About me?” she asked herself.“What are we going to do now? I haven’t told Natalie yet; for sure, she’ll be surprised,” Natalie heard her beta’s voice talking to her dad, so she slightly peeked at them from the small crack in the door.Natalie’s heart pounded as she stood just outside the door, listening intently to her father and beta’s conversation. The words her beta spoke hit her like a cold wave, freezing her in place. “The clan is at war?” she thought, her mind racing.She felt a mix of confusion and disbelief. How could something so serious be happening without her knowing? As the alpha of the pack, shouldn’t she have been the first to know? Was her position not as strong as she
