Eero's perspective"With your second chance, mate, Eero. None other than Miguel." I zoned out at the image of my adoptive father."Congratulations on your match, Eero. You and the future Alpha of the Blackthorn is a match made in heaven," Aelice said enthusiastically to break off the tension between me and Alpha King Codrus."Aren't you going to say something to the Luna Queen? She greeted you, Eero." I blinked my eyes and put my lips on a thin line. Words failed to come out from my lips, and before I even knew it. I was walking away from the ruling couple of the pack."You, do you have your phone with you?" I asked my servant after I blocked her from leaving my room."The Beta forbids us to use our phone during our working hours, your grace. I have a phone, but it's down on the maid's quarter.""Can you sneak it here? I need to make a phone call." The servant flashed a reluctant smile."I'll pay you. How about a thousand dollars?" I closed my eyes and lightly shook my head, "Five tho
Eero's perspectiveMy wolf and I felt our bond snap, but Claudius' rejection didn't hurt me as much as I expected. His rejection didn't weaken me, which I couldn't understand.Claudius stepped away from me while I breathed hard, struggling to keep myself standing straight."It's done. Your daughter is free to be claimed by Miguel Blackthorn. Now, you have to do your end of the deal and transfer more company shares to my name.""More shares to your name?!" I charged towards Claudius and showered his ch
Eero's perspective"Why are you doing all of this? What is it to you? What is the benefit that you'll get from this?" I asked him. Miguel smiled at me. I sighed, and right at that moment. I wanted to run away from all of this and leave with my son away from these."Our family will be united, and through that union, our pack will become stronger. Mering the Blackthorn Pack and the Regulus was all that my father wanted ever since," Miguel said with a smile."You'll go through this mess and suffer in the misery of being in a loveless marriage, with me possibly seeing my second chance m
Eero's perspective"I'm sorry, Aelice. I'm sorry that I thought of something like that, but your father hates me to the core, and I really thought that." I stopped myself from speaking midway and popped a smile, "I'm sorry."Aelice nodded her head. My friend pulled me into a hug and whispered how sorry she was."It's all in the past now. We should forget about this, but promise me no secrets from now on, will you?" Aelice asked, lightly squeezing my arm."I don't want something like this to happen aga
Eero's perspectiveDays turned to weeks, and weeks to months. Before I even knew it, years had passed by.My brows met with confusion as the dress I was supposed to wear for a meeting with a client and investor today was nowhere to be seen."I swear I left it on the bed before I showered," I continue to whisper."I let go of the towel I was using to dry my hair. I had looked at every corner of the room, but I still couldn't find it anywhere."Ophelia!" I called our maid.With a floor map in her left hand, she barges inside my room after a few minutes."Hi, Ophi, but did you happen to see a black dress here? The one Miguel and I bought the other day." Ophelia shook her head in response. Even so, her eyes automatically roamed the entire room to help me find it.My eyes landed on a familiar piece of Lego on the floor near my bed."I walked past your room to clean Sir Miguel's room, but I didn't notice a dress on your bed, your grace," she said to me.I turned to her and shook my head befo
Eero's perspective"Mr. Ang, it's nice to finally meet you," I said with a smile while shaking his hand. The CEO of San Miguel Corporation smiled back and gestured to the chair.Miguel and I sat there almost at the same time."You're an heir to RGC. The Alpha King's heir too. The one who'll be the next Alpha of Regulus? But the Alpha King and the Luna Queen had a son too. Do you remain the Alpha King's heir? Or he'll soon change that?" Mr. Ang asked smilingly after drinking his wine. The curve on my lips disappeared, especially since I didn't know how to answer that now.
Eero's perspective"Mother, what's taking Father so long?" There was a hint of irritation in Perseus' voice when he asked me that. I looked down at him and saw him remove the denim jacket that he placed above our luggage.Apart from Miguel's late arrival to pick up Perseus and me, the hot weather seemed to have added to my son's bad mood.Perseus seated himself on the bench again and crossed both of his arms against his chest which somehow made me smile.I couldn't help but take a photo of him secretl
Eero's PerspectiveEven when I'm in the middle of an important meeting. All that I could think of was how it affected me when I saw Claudius with his fated mate."How about we infused our trademark, Eero? The rustic interior design with a more dramatic vibe?" I took my eyes off the laptop where our interior designer's presenting some of her ideas for the gallery. My eyes landed on Diana and saw her holding a magazine featuring Victorian-era-themed interior designs for luxury places.Diana looked up at me before she reached for the said magazine. "Although I have made my decision that I'd like our Gallery here in Regulus to share the same design and ambience with the Blackthorn branch. The rustic and laid-back theme, I am still up for some tiny changes," I said to the interior designer.My eyes quickly ran through each page of the magazine that Diana handed to me after she scanned it through. I was only halfway through it when Diana fully convinced me to make the Regulus branch a Vi
