Natalie went out to her car and looked at Norwan’s mansion; she walked towards the gate, pressed the doorbell, and waited for someone to open the gate. She is so sure that she will see Cora here. She will face the evil wolf who played with her life. Cora must pay for what she did to her and for what she did to the people around her. Cora makes them fool and makes everyone fall to her drama so she can have their sympathy against Natalie. She’s done with it.“Ma’am Natalie..” The maid greeted as she saw Natalie. She isn’t expecting her to be back here.“Is Cora there?” She asked. The maid shook her head. “She left the house since Sir Norwan kicked her out here.” The maid answered, so Natalie frowned at what she had learned.“Kick her out?” She asks; the maid looks at her back before she looks back to Natalie.“Sir Norwan and Ms. Cora is already break up.” The maid said, so Natalie laughed and patted the maid’s shoulder.“Thank you for the information, do you know where she is?” Natalie
Norwan went to his car and dialed Natalie’s number; he kept on calling her until no one answered his call. He is worried now, and there is some part of him that he has a bad feeling that something is happening to Natalie now. “Fuck! Where are you?” He asked and tried to call Natalie again, but still no one answered him. He started to drive his car and went to Natalie’s office. He can’t stop himself not to worry for some reason.“Is Natalie here?” He asks as soon as he gets to the building reception. The woman in charge there looks for Natalie’s schedule before she looks up to Norwan again.“Ms Natalie is not here and she hasn’t arrived yet. She also doesn’t have any meetings now since she canceled all of it.” The woman said, so Norwan close his eyes because of disappointment. He doesn’t know what to do and where to find Natalie. Norwan grabbed his phone again and tried to call Natalie, but there was no one to answer so, he thought of something where he thought Natalie had gone. He fr
Natalie opened her eyes and saw the dark surroundings. She was about to scratch her face when something was tied in her hands, and she couldn’t make it move. She frowned and started to look around, but she saw nothing but darkness.“Where am I?” she asked herself while trying to remember what had happened earlier. She frowned as she saw something not far from her. “Finally, you already woke up.” She looked at the one who spoke and saw Cora; she turned on the lights, and that’s why Natalie suddenly closed her eyes. She slowly opens her eyes and frowns as soon as she remembers what happened earlier. It was Cora who hit her a hard thing earlier, which caused her to lose consciousness. Natalie looks around and seems like she’s in a tree house. She look to Cora who is smiling at her watching her while it’s arms are cross.“What the fuck are you going to do with me?!” She shouted, which caused Cora to laugh and walk closer to her; she grabbed one plastic chair and sat in front of her.“Not
Natalie went under one large track tree to hide and chase her breath, sensing if the man following her was still there. It’s been ten minutes since she left the tree house and since she ran, but still, she doesn’t know where to go. She can’t find the way out of the forest and thinks she won’t get it before the sun sets. But hope for her is still there. She must find a way, or else the man who chases her will find her and get her back to the tree house again.“Fuck.” She whispered as soon as she sensed that the man was near her. She held her breath and tried not to make any noise until she saw the man going in a different direction. She took the opportunity to run from that place, but the man saw her again, which caused her to curse again while running.“I fucking need to see the end of this forest.” She said while running in a werewolf form of her. She then went to the left side of the forest and ran again until she stopped as soon as she sensed danger from that direction.“Traps.” Sh
“Well, well, well. Where are you both going now?” Cora asks with a smirk on her lips while holding a gun; she’s looking at Natalie and Norwan. Norwan swallows, knowing that they’re in a bad situation right now because Cora has a weapon. She will surely hurt Natalie or even him if they do something that makes Cora mad. Natalie, on the other hand, sees this as an opportunity to tell Norwan what she knows about Cora.“Natalie, are we not having fun earlier? That’s why you left me behind?” Cora asked; Natalie just looked at her and didn’t answer her. She’s looking for a way to open up about the real reason why Norwan’s brother died.“You make me so very offended, even you, Norwan,” Cora said and looked at Norwan.“Stop this shit, Cora,” Norwan said, so Cora frowned and laughed sarcastically; she played with the gun she was holding and looked in Natalie’s direction.“Do you want me to end this, Natalie?’ She asked, but Natalie once again didn’t answer her. Somehow, Cora found it very offen
Norwan was filled with anger. His system had been eaten by anger for Cora. Upon watching Natalie lose consciousness, anger exploded in his whole system, causing him to transform into his wolf form.Norwan turned to look in Cora’s direction, who was now slowly crawling away from him. In one blink of an eye, Norwan was already in front of Cora, choking her in the air.“Norwan.. Please… you’re hurting me!” Cora said, trying her own best to remove from Norwan’s hand. Norwan throws her not far from him, which causes Cora to suffer back pain after his back bumps into the ground. Cora was about to stand, but Norwan didn’t let that happen when he suddenly kicked her back, which caused her to lay on the ground.“PLEASE…. NORWAN STOP!” Cora begs while looking at Norwan, who is now out of control. Norwan aggressively pulled her hair and pointed her his sharp claws.“Tell me what Natalie means about her words,” Norwan said, so Cora shook her head while crying, scared of what Norwan could do to he
“Norwan.” Norwan looks to the one who calls him Drixie. She went straight to the hospital after learning that Norwan was there. “What happened? Where is Cora?” Drixie asked, so Norwan didn’t answer her. He looks in the operating door where Natalie is, and he’s been waiting for almost three hours outside. Norwan didn’t even expect that Drixie would go here to the hospital where he was, and he doesn’t even know what news she heard and how she knew that he was there.“Norwan, I am asking you. Is she okay?” Drixie asked once again, so Norwan looked at her, this time with his blank aura.“She’s dead,” Norwan said, which caused Drixie to be shocked. She even holds to the wall to gain support and avoid collapsing because of his news. Drixie was shocked, knowing that Cora was dead.“Who… who did that to her?” Drixie said, starting to feel angry because Cora was dead.“Did Natalie do that?” She asks with her mad voice, so Norwan looks at her once more while frowning. “Where is that bitch? I’m
Norwan is sitting in a coffee shop waiting for someone to arrive; he grabs his coffee and sips it before looking at his wristwatch again and looking to the window. He sighed and leaned into his chair; he didn’t know what to do. He couldn’t think straight at this point. He is desperate to do something that could help and save Natalie from the risk of death. He doesn’t know what to do if something happens to Natalie. He will not forgive himself for not protecting her.“Hey, sorry I am late.” Norwan looked up and saw Chad. He patted his shoulder before it sat down in front of him. Norwan gave him a small smile. He had called him yesterday to seek help, and he didn’t know where he could ask for help but from her and Chad.“How is she?” Chad asks while looking at Norwan. “She’s in a critical situation,” Norwan answered, looking at his first watch again.“Are we waiting for someone?” Chad asks, so Norwan nods at him and sighs once more. “I called her,” Norwan said, so Chad frowned. He did
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
Natalie stares to her fathers eyes with anger, pain and sadness and Don Grego feel all those emotion while he’s also staring back to his own daughter. He suddenly remember Natalie’s mom because of Natalie’s eyes. Don Grego close his eyes and avoid his daughter’s stares after remembering his late wife who died because of a clan war.“Why don’t you just let us go, dad?” Natalie ask which cause the Don to look at her for a minute before he look up to stop himself not to cry.“I’m just protecting you.” Don Grego said so Natalie shook her head as if her father can see her action.“Protecting me from who?” Natalie ask and sigh, “You’re just making me feel so much hate for you.” Natalie added which cause Don Grego to look at his own daughter with anger in his eyes. This is the very first time Natalie tell those words to Don Grego and it makes so much pain for Don Grego after hearing the words coming from Natalie.“You hate me for what?” Don Grego ask with serious tone of voice, Natalie sudde
Weeks after Natalie and Norwan ran away from Don Grego and from their own town, they lived normally and peacefully in another country, just as they had dreamed together. Unlike their first marriage, Norwan and Natalie spent so much time with each other, caring, cherishing, and appreciating all the efforts that each of them made. For Natalie, these were the best months she had ever spent with Norwan. This was her dream, her longing for so many years since she married him. It was all finally happening now.“I will go to town later,” Natalie said, looking at Norwan, who was fixing the front doorknob. She sighed as she put down the cup she was holding.“Why?” she asked, making Norwan look at her and give her a playful smile.“Of course, I need to find work,” Norwan said. This was the first time Natalie had heard those words from him. She knew that he was willing to do anything for both of them. She also knew that Norwan had changed a lot since they arrived in their new home.“You don’t ha
The flight took some hours before it finally landed at the airport. Norwan and Natalie got out of the Plane together while they were holding some of their things. The wind blew from their faces, and as soon as Norwan felt that wind, he smiled and looked at Natalie, who was also smiling.“We could finally get the freedom that we're looking for,” Norwan said to Natalie, who embraced him and looked at him in his eyes.“We should forget things and our problems for now; we're here now to start a new life again,” Natalie said, which made Norwan smile. He can't help but smile while looking at Natalie because, finally, they can have freedom together, far from the people who want them to be separated.Norwan and Natalie start walking inside the airport and planning things for them. They're new to this country and need to adjust very much to the place and the people near them. For now, Norwan booked a cab so they could go to the nearest hotel, which they had also booked online. The language of
Natalie is staring at nowhere while Norwan is buying some tickets for them. They're already at the airport. After they are away from the hospital, Norwan and Natalie go directly to buy some things for them disguised. She even cuts her hair so no one can know and see her. The same goes for Norwan, who cuts off his whole hair. As soon as he gets the ticket, Norwan goes to Natalie's side and kisses her on her cheeks, which causes her to look at him. “I got our ticket,” Norwan said, so Natalie smiled at him and sighed. She was nervous, and even though she wouldn't tell Norwan, he could still feel and smell it from her.“I'm nervous,” Natalie said, so Norwan held her hands, which made her comfortable at some point while she looked out the airport window and watched some people pass by.“Just think about us having our freedom after this,” Norwan said, and Natalie turned to look at him. I know it sounds selfish, but we're doing this for us, right?” Norwan added, and Natalie nodded at him a
