Chad drinks the liquor in his glass and looks at the photo of him with Natalie, and this is the photo taken by Lynn when he became Natalie’s boyfriend. This is also the day when Lynn confessed her feelings for Chad.“Can I talk to you, Chad?” Natalie asked. That’s why Chad looked at her and nodded. Natalie stands up from her seat and starts to walk. Chad follows her. Natalie stops on the balcony. That’s why Chad stopped and stood up from her back. Natalie looks at him and smiles.“What’s the matter, My lady,” Chad asked. Natalie shook her head and looked up to the sky.“The moon is beautiful isn’t it?” Natalie asked that’s why Chad looked up to the moon and smiled. “Yes, my lady.” He said, so Natalie laughed. That’s why Chad looked at her once again.“Silly, I didn’t know I was about to explain things to you.” She said that’s why Chad frowned and bowed his head.“Sorry, my lady, please explain what you meant to say?” Chad asked, and that’s why Natalie laughed even more.“What I meant
Natalie sits before her makeup table and looks at herself in the mirror. She then grabbed the mini comb before her and combed her hair. She’s wearing red lipstick and light makeup. A smirk starts to form on her lips while she’s looking at her reflection.A few minutes after that, her phone rang, that’s why she grabbed it and answered the call. “How is she?” Natalie asked as soon as she answered the call.“I already did what you want me to do.” The man said in the other line. That’s why Natalie smirked and stood up from her chair.“Good, now clean all the mess, and let’s meet later.” She said before she hung up the call. A wide smile forms on her lips as she starts to walk.On the other hand, Cora is waiting for Norwan to be home. She’s been waiting for him for almost two hours, yet no Norwan is arriving. That’s why she decided to go inside and wait for Norwan in the living room instead of staying with him outside.“Cora, I will just go to the office. Mom calls me, and she needs backu
After hearing where Lynn is, Natalie goes to the same place where Lynn is confined and secretly sneaks into her room. A cold aura is plotted on Natalie’s face while looking for Lynn’s room. She didn’t know what exactly she would show if she saw Lynn. Is she going to pity her or be mad at her? Natalie is in a state of mixed emotions as she knows that Lynn is in the hospital because of her, but at the same time, regret is in Natalie’s mind now, knowing that Lynn is pregnant and she didn’t know about it.A sigh came from Natalie first before she opened the door where Lynn was and saw Lynn sleeping peacefully. And she held the doorknob so tight as she was looking at Lynn. Her anger started to eat her again while she was looking at Lynn’s face. Natalie felt that whenever she looked at her, she reminded her of Chad’s actions.“I fucking hate you, Lynn,” Natalie whispered before she fully entered the door. As Natalie enters the hospital room where Lynn is confined, she looks and watches Lynn
Chad looked to Natalie’s mansion before he went out to his car. He then walks towards the gate and rings the doorbell as he’s already in front of the gate. Chad then waits for a second before someone opens the gate for him.“Sir Chad….” The maid said and blocked his way. “I am sorry, but Ms Natalie told us not to let you in her house.” It added, so Chad sighed and nodded as he understood that they were doing their job.“Is she here?” Chad asked. The maid nodded and looked at him.“I will call her for you, sir.” The maid said before she closed the gate again and went to Natalie’s room. Chad waited outside for almost three minutes before Natalie went out to face him. A cold aura welcomed Chad as soon as Natalie stepped outside. “What do you need?” Natalie asked coldly, and Chad could see how much he hurt Natalie. The way he talked to him and the way she looked at him made him wonder if he could still have her forgiveness.“I came here to talk to you about Lynn,” Chad said directly, so
Norwan enters the meeting room, where the seven circle members are sitting on their chairs and waiting for him. All of them are looking at him once he enters the room. Norwan’s eyes lend to Natalie’s place, where she sits beside his chair. “As expected, she’s the new member of the circle who replaced her dad after being crowned as the new Alpha of their pack,” Norwan said to himself and smiled shortly to Natalie before he went in front of everyone.“What’s with the sudden meeting?” The Alpha of the East pack asked as soon as Norwan went in front of everyone.“Is there something wrong?” The Cann Alpha asked. Norwan looked at everyone, including Natalie.“I called every one of you as I received news that the South pack declared war between their clan and our Clan,” Norwan said, so everyone in the room started to whisper, not including Natalie, who was looking at him and listening.“What was the reason?” Simonn, the Alpha of the West pack, asked. Norwan looked at him for a second before
Natalie enters the golden door, and behind her is her assistant, with two bodyguards wearing the same black suit. A smile formed on Natalie's lips as soon as she saw the Alpha of the South Pack, Treodor, a female Alpha who has advocated to protect women and defend every woman not only in their pack and tribe but also around the world, that is why the South Pack is known for this generous advocacy."What's the matter? You visited me here today, Ms. Natalie." She asked and welcomed Natalie with a warm hug and kisses on her lips. Natalie looks into her eyes and smiles as she examines how beautiful Treodor is."I am shocked and at the moment of surprise right now as I was given a chance to see the goddess in real life," Natalie said, which caused Treodor to chuckle and tap her shoulder."Come on, don't say those words; we can't compare ourselves to the goddess; no one can beat her true beauty," Treodor said and signaled Natalie to sit down. Natalie followed, but her eyes were all pinned o
"WHAT?!" Cora shouted in anger while holding an envelope, and inside of that were a ton of pictures of Norwan hugging Natalie in front of the office of the South Pack Alphas. Her anger fills her body and system, which causes her to tear apart those pictures sent by the spy she hired to follow Norwan and report what he's doing to her. "Where did you see them?!" She asked as soon as she turned to the spy she hired; he was sipping his tea while watching Cora's reaction. He already knows this will happen soon as he gives those images he captures."At the front of the office of the South Pack Alpha." He answered confidently, which made Cora irritated when he answered her question. But she didn't mind it for too long as she was more concerned with what Norwan was doing with Natalie and their agenda and why they were both there at the place of South Packs."Something is happening with them, and I must find it out." She said while she was looking badly in the other direction."All this time,
Cora walked nearly to them and slapped Natalie hard. As soon as she got closer to Natalie, Norwan was shocked after he witnessed what Cora did to Natalie, so he went to the middle of the two and pushed Cora away from Natalie, who was holding the side of her face where Cora slapped her."What the fuck is wrong with you, Cora?! Don't fucking make a scene here." Norwan said madly. Cora did not listen to him, and what she did next made Norwan very mad at her.Cora grabbed the hot soup near her and spilled it onto Natalie's dress, which made Natalie feel the hot temperature of the soup."WHAT THE FUCK?!" Norwan shouted grabbed his handkerchief and wiped Natalie's dress."Are you okay?" He asked Natalie while he was wiping her dress."That's what a witch deserves for stealing my man," Cora said, so Norwan looked at her once again."Stop this Cora, don't make me fucking angry at you." He said while protecting Natalie from Cora.Cora just smirked while looking at Norwan; she couldn't believe
“Let me go!” A loud voice echoed in the hallway, and Norwan could hear it too. He looked at the door as it opened, and his men brought in Darius. Norwan saw the frightened look on Darius’s face, and he couldn’t help but feel pity for him. Darius was one of the men he trusted most when it came to the clan. He was like a watcher, a protector and observer, standing as Norwan’s eyes within the clan.Norwan watched as his men pushed Darius to the floor. He sighed, stood up from his seat, and Darius looked up at him as he approached.“What is this all about?” Darius asked, and in response, Norwan’s beta delivered a hard blow to Darius’s face, causing him to groan in pain.“Don’t speak to our lord like that,” Norwan’s beta said.Darius looked up at Norwan again.The tension in the air was thick, and Norwan could feel the weight of Darius's gaze on him, searching for answers. As the sounds of the fight settled, a strange feeling stirred in his chest. He had always known Darius to be strong, s
The man entered the office quietly, his steps measured as he approached Norwan’s desk. He could see the distant look in Norwan’s eyes, the way his gaze seemed lost in the fading light of the sunset. He cleared his throat, snapping Norwan back to reality.“Sir,” the man said, his tone low, “there’s something urgent. The situation with the Clan... it’s escalating faster than we anticipated.”Norwan set his wine down slowly, the weight of the words sinking in. The glass rim made a soft clink against the surface of the desk as his hand retreated. His thoughts shifted instantly—back to the pressing matters of the Clan, the danger that loomed.“I’ve been expecting this,” Norwan said quietly, his voice steady but tinged with concern. “Tell me what’s going on.”The man hesitated for a moment before speaking again. “It’s the allies we thought we had... they’ve turned on us. And there’s also talk of a traitor within. We might be looking at a two-front battle soon.”Norwan’s jaw tightened, his m
“I don’t know what’s going on in your mind, Dad,” Natalie said coldly, her eyes locked onto his. It confused her to no end—why had her father invited Amanda to their breakfast after everything he’d done to Norwan?“This is insane,” she muttered under her breath, a sarcastic chuckle escaping her lips. She couldn’t believe it.“You told me they’re our enemies,” Natalie said, her voice sharp, waiting for the Don’s response. He stared at her with a serious look, not a word leaving his lips. Amanda, equally silent, kept her gaze fixed on Don Grego, her face unreadable, as if waiting for him to break the silence.“What is this all about?” Natalie finally demanded, her patience thinning. The minutes stretched on in heavy silence.“Who told you they’re our enemies?” Don Grego finally said, his tone casual as he started to toy with his food. “I hate Norwan,” he added, as though the words were insignificant. Natalie scoffed, a humorless laugh escaping her. Her gaze flicked to Amanda, as if expe
The tension in the room was almost palpable as Natalie descended the staircase, her eyes deliberately avoiding her father’s gaze. The crisp, almost icy air around her seemed to settle into every corner of the spacious dining hall. Don Grego watched her movements closely, his gaze a mixture of frustration and longing. He knew something had shifted between them, something that had been quietly building over time, but the weight of it was now impossible to ignore.As Natalie reached the table and sat across from him, her presence was like a cold wind sweeping through the room. Don’s sigh was deep and heavy, an attempt to release the discomfort, but it only seemed to make the silence more intense. When he finally spoke, his voice was tinged with a mix of hurt and confusion, the words coming out almost as an accusation, but also a plea.“Until when are you going to treat me like that, Natalie?” His question hung in the air, a challenge he wasn’t sure he was ready for the answer to. There w
Norwan gathered all of his remaining men in one place, not far from his clan's location. Some of the young men were still helping the women clean up the mess in their homes, while others were assisting civilians who had been injured. The men standing before Norwan were those he believed could help him uncover the identities of those responsible for the chaos that had befallen his clan.“They’re all here, my lord,” Norwan's beta said. Norwan nodded at him and sighed before looking over the men before him. Some had small wounds on their faces, while others had bandages wrapped around their bodies.“I would like to thank you all for attending,” Norwan greeted them, his voice heavy as he scanned their faces. His heart seemed to break as he looked at them, knowing the suffering they had endured because of what had happened to their homes.“I apologize for leaving you all alone, for not protecting you, and for letting this happen to all of you…” Norwan paused for a moment, swallowing hard.
The scene before Norwan felt like a brutal wake-up call, his mind racing as he stood frozen in the chaos. The destruction of his home, the pain and fear in the eyes of his people—these were things he couldn’t ignore, no matter how much guilt gnawed at him. As the cold wind brushed against his face, it felt almost like a physical reminder of his failure. The Beta, a loyal companion, stood beside him, their silence filled with shared sorrow and the weight of the unspoken words.Norwan’s anger bubbled up again as the Beta’s words hung in the air. The unknown wolves—an enemy he hadn’t anticipated. Maybe if he hadn’t been distracted by the allure of his own desires, by his connection with Natalie, this wouldn't have happened. He thought back to the moments before he left. His mind was occupied with everything but his people. His heart ached with the realization that his absence had cost them dearly.“Who did this?” Norwan asked again, this time more fiercely, his voice trembling with the e
Norwan's body trembled slightly as he sat there, staring at the remnants of the cracked window, the dull light that filtered through doing little to soothe the ache in his heart. The room around him felt colder than before, the silence pressing down on him with the weight of regret and loss. His fingers clenched into fists as he held back another wave of emotion, the flashback of Natalie’s voice, her frustration, echoing in his mind. He had always known she was the grounding force, the one to pull him back from the edge when his impulsiveness spiraled out of control.But now, that presence was gone.The tears fell faster now, his chest tightening as memories of her laughter, her little quirks, the way she would always forgive him even when he messed up, flooded his thoughts. It was too much to bear, the realization that her absence was permanent, that he had no chance to make things right. He squeezed his eyes shut, trying to shut out the painful truth, but it was impossible.“Natalie
Norwan arrived at their small house, his heart still racing so fast. He felt incredibly tired and thirsty from running and sprinting just to get back home. As soon as he opened the gate, he immediately caught the scent of Natalie, a scent he hadn’t noticed before. His heart started to beat even faster as he opened the door, anxiously searching for her. But he couldn’t see her anywhere in the house."NATALIE!" he shouted, opening the rooms in a frantic search. Sweat poured down his body, and his face was drenched. He swallowed hard as he opened the last door, only to find it empty again."NATALIE!" he shouted once more and hurried to the backyard, scanning the farm they had. His forehead furrowed as he noticed the basket where Natalie always placed the vegetables, something she used whenever she worked in the farm. Norwan sniffed the basket, picking up her scent but still couldn’t pinpoint where she was."NATALIE!" Norwan called out again, his voice filled with panic as he looked aroun
Norwan arrived at the town and started looking for a job. He began asking some locals if there were any job openings for a man like him, and luckily, he met Casto, a man in his 30s who helped him get work from the same bakery shops he was working for. Norwan considered it lucky and a twist of fate to meet Casto. He was so kind to him, even though they barely knew each other; Casto still helped him without hesitation.“I guess that’s just how we are here,” Casto said with a smile after Norwan thanked him.“In my place, we never share information like this. We have our own business and don't care much about others,” Norwan said, lifting a sack of flour.“Well, luckily you're here, in my place, where we care about each other,” Casto replied while mixing flour and eggs.“How many years have you been here?” Norwan couldn’t stop himself from asking.“Since birth,” Casto answered proudly. “I also met my wife here.” He added with a smile, which made Norwan smile too.“You must be happy to hav
