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 looks around as soon as they arrive at Don Grego’s house. Lynn heard that Grego had already arrived from his trip to the south and was currently staying in his mansion. Lynn is with Norwan now, and they both stand in front of Grego’s mansion. Norwan didn’t know that Grego was a mighty man, that Natalie was a daughter of a powerful man. Based on his mansion’s front appearance, Norwan already knew that Grego was rich and that Natalie was mighty. He couldn’t believe he belittled Natalie’s power when they were still together.“We are looking for Don Grego. Is he here?” Lynn asks the guard. The guard looks at them and puts down the phone that he’s holding.“May I ask what your agenda with the Don is, and who are you?” the guard asked, so Lynn looked to Norwan and gave him a signal.“I am Norwan, Natalie’s ex-husband. This is Lynn, Natalie’s friend, and we are here to seek help from the Don.” Norwan answers, so the guards look at them for a minute before he gets the phone again.“Hel
Norwan felt the strong aura coming from Don, and he became serious after he said her name to him. A strange atmosphere also develops between them while Norwan looks and waits for the Don’s reply. Norwan’s heartbeat is so fast that he can even hear it, while Lynn, on the other hand, is nervous because of Don’s aura. He is far different from his daughter, Natalie. Lynn is thankful that Natalie grew up a sweet and happy woman, but upon looking at Don now, she remembers how Natalie’s cold aura was the same as her dad, who is now in front of her.“So, what about her?” Grego asks while waiting for Norwan’s word. Norwan sighs and gathers all his strength, to tell the truth to the Don.“Natalie is in a bad state,” Norwan said, which made Don stop and stare at Norwan. Lynn swallowed for Norwan. She already knew what would happen after this, and she had been expecting that since the day Chad told them about the Don.“What do you mean?” Don Grego asks, putting down the things that he’s holding.
Norwan is looking at his picture with Natalie on the wall, and this picture was taken when they got married. He sips the wine and touches Natalie’s face in the picture before he swallows. Until now, he couldn’t forget what Don had said to him the previous day. He thinks that Don is just mad at him and will be fine after that day, but Don does what he says to him, he puts so many guards inside and outside of Natalie’s room, and they stop him from entering her. Norwan doesn’t know what to do now that Don is taking his words seriously.Lynn can visit Natalie, but he can’t. Don banned him from seeing Natalie, and now Norwan is worried since he heard from Lynn yesterday that today is the last operation to remove the last bullet in Natalie’s body. Even though he wants to go to the hospital and visit her and wait for her until the operation is done, he can’t because Don’s men are stopping him. He already imagines that this will happen, that Don will do things that he will surely regret.“Are
Days passed after Don Grego’s man bit Norwan. He’s been locking himself in his room and didn’t talk to anyone. Drixie notices that, and she knows that her brother is not in a good mood because of that. She knows that it is connected to Natalie.“Is your brother awake now?” Amanda asks while she’s reading a newspaper. Drixie just sits on the chair and doesn’t answer her mother. She thinks about what help she can do to get Norwan back to himself. Well, despite the fights they have, Drixie still cares for Norwan. After all, he’s still her brother, and they used to have more good times than fights.“I heard that Natalie is awake now.” After that, Drixie looks to her mother; Amanda is now looking at Drixie and observing her reaction.“Is she?” Drixie asks. Amanda nods at her and puts the newspaper down on the mini table in front of her. “My friend, who is working as a nurse in the hospital where Natalie is confined, tell me the news,” Amanda said, so Drixie stood up from her seat.“Norwan
Natalie couldn’t stop herself from thinking of what happened after she lost consciousness. Some of her wanted to go to Norwan and ask him about what happened, but a part of him also believed that Cora had already fixed their relationship and was now having peace. It’s been two days since she woke up, and I haven’t heard anything from Norwan or seen him once after she woke up. “Natalie, why are you still awake?” She looks to the door where her father is standing as he enters her room.“Is something bothering you?” Don Grego asks, so Natalie gives him a small smile and shakes her head in answer; she doesn’t want to tell him what she’s thinking of her dad because, for sure, he would tell her no other words than ‘stop looking for that man.’“I need to go to the company to take over your place for the mean time, my guards will be here to escort you and will assist you to everything that you want or need.” Don Grego said before he kissed his daughter’s forehead. Natalie nods at him and smi
Norwan slammed his car door shut with a bit more force than necessary, his heart pounding in his chest. He didn’t even take a moment to breathe, his feet carrying him quickly to the gate of Natalie’s house. He stood there, his fingers trembling as he pressed the doorbell, the chime echoing in the quiet of the early evening. He waited, his gaze drifting over the stillness of the surroundings. A minute passed. Then another.He pressed the button again, more urgently this time. His eyes darted nervously, scanning the surroundings as if expecting someone to jump out from behind a tree.A voice broke the silence behind him.“You wanna break my doorbell?”Norwan froze, then turned slowly, a sheepish smile forming on his face as he saw Don Grego standing there, arms crossed, watching him with a knowing look in his eyes.“I’m sorry,” Norwan muttered, his smile faltering as he tried to collect himself, swallowing hard. “I just wanted to ask if Natalie is here?”Don Grego let out a sigh, one of
AFTER THREE DAYS.|“Are you really sure about this?” Don Grego’s voice was soft but laced with concern. He paused in the doorway, watching his daughter with a mixture of confusion and worry. Natalie stopped what she was doing, a gentle rustle of papers filling the quiet room. Her gaze briefly met his, and then she offered him a reassuring smile—small, but steady.She nodded once, firmly. Don Grego took a cautious step forward, his brow furrowing. He studied her face, searching for any hint of uncertainty that might reveal a second thought. But there was none. “But why?” he asked, his voice heavy with the weight of fatherly confusion. “I didn’t do anything to make you feel this way… What’s brought this on?”Natalie chuckled softly, the sound almost as if she was trying to lighten the mood, but it didn’t quite reach her eyes. She shook her head, her hands pausing in the task at hand. “It’s not about you, Dad.” Her words were clear, almost too clear, but there was a flicker of something
“Why don’t you kill me now, Natalie? Now that you possess all the power, all the strength to do whatever you please,” Cora asked, her voice steady, eyes locked with Natalie’s. There was no fear in her gaze, no hesitation. It was a challenge. A dare.Natalie stood there, her heart pounding, her breath shallow. Cora’s words hit harder than any weapon, but it was the unwavering defiance in her eyes that made Natalie falter. Cora was no longer the girl she had once known. She was something else now—something far darker, far more dangerous. And yet, she wasn’t afraid. Not of dying. Not of anything.The silence stretched between them, thick and suffocating. Natalie could feel the weight of it. All the anger. All the pain. Everything that had led to this moment.“You ruined my life, Cora,” Natalie said through clenched teeth, her voice low and controlled.Cora's lips curled into a smirk, eyes never leaving Natalie’s. "I know," she answered, voice dripping with bitterness, but there was no re
The wind whistled through the sky as soon as Natalie and Norwan reached the place where Cora was. Cora greeted them with a wide, dark smile, which annoyed Norwan—after all the mess she had made, how could she still smile? Did she have no conscience at all?“What an awful sight for me,” Cora said with a sarcastic sigh, referring to Norwan and Natalie being together.“How could you do this to me, Norwan? You treated me like a toy,” Cora added. In response, Norwan simply tightened his grip on Natalie’s hand, which didn’t go unnoticed by Cora. A smirk formed on her lips as she glanced back at Norwan.“Stop holding her hand in front of me,” she said, laughing. “You told me last time that my hands were enough for you to hold.”“Stop all this nonsense, Cora,” Natalie said bravely. Cora stopped laughing and looked at her in disbelief.“Why would I?” she asked, smirking. “Don’t tell me you’re afraid to lose.”Natalie took a deep breath. “Your men are the ones suffering because of what you’re d
The battlefield was a scene of unspeakable horror. The ground was slick with blood, bodies strewn everywhere like discarded dolls, the air thick with the stench of death. The clash of metal on metal, the screams of dying men, and the endless rhythm of war had not ceased for five long hours. Neither clan had yielded, and the chaos only deepened as the fight raged on. Natalie’s mind spun in confusion as she stood in the midst of the turmoil. She could scarcely comprehend what was happening—men from Norwan's clan fighting alongside hers, yet others, from different factions, turned their weapons on their own. Which clan is this? She wondered, eyes scanning the battlefield frantically, trying to piece together the puzzle that was slowly consuming everything.Her heart hammered in her chest. She needed to find him—Where is Norwan? Her thoughts were a whirlwind of fear, and every second that passed felt like an eternity. She tried to push through the chaos, slashing at the enemies who stood
The tension in the air was thick, a heavy silence hanging over the battlefield as Natalie stood frozen, her left leg planted firmly atop the broken form of Cora’s fallen Alpha. Her gaze swept over her own clan first, then to Norwan, who looked at her with something that resembled both confusion and apprehension. She remained still, exuding an unspoken power, her eyes burning with fury. Then, her attention shifted, and she slowly turned to face Cora’s men.The sight that met her eyes was almost surreal—men who had been so sure of their power, now standing frozen, unable to comprehend what had just happened. Their Alpha, the man they revered, lay at her feet, lifeless. The realization hit them like a hammer, their leader was gone, and they had just witnessed the unthinkable. The cold reality settled over them like a dark cloud.The man closest to Natalie—trembling, his hands shaking—could no longer bear the weight of fear in his chest. The ferocity in her eyes, the silent rage emanating
Norwan couldn't shake the worry gnawing at him as he stared at his mother, locked in a large cage with her hands shackled by chains. He could barely make out her face, but the sight alone sent a wave of anxiety through him."Norwan…" Amanda's whisper barely reached his ears, but it cut through the tension. He could feel her fear in those soft words."WHAT DID YOU DO TO HER?!" Norwan yelled, his voice breaking through the air as he glared at Cora, who stood calmly before him, a smirk tugging at her lips. She cast a quick glance at Amanda before returning her cold stare to Norwan."Copy her?" Cora replied with an irritatingly casual tone, causing Norwan's frown to deepen in frustration."What do you mean?" Don Grego asked, his curiosity piqued. Cora’s smile widened, her eyes glowing a dangerous red. In an instant, Norwan and Don Grego found themselves pulled into a vision—a painful flashback to the past.They watched as Cora survived Norwan’s attack, lurking in the shadows as she secret
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
