"Are you going to the manor?" Ananas asked before Tristan left the hospital for the estate."Why?""I'm just worried because didn't an attack happen in the manor a while ago?"Tristan groaned. He acknowledged Ananas's concerns by nodding. I won't stop at the plant, she said. Sam will get some grapes from me as I go around and pick them. Next, we'll return home. Tristan made an effort to reassure his sister."You should be back at the mansion before dinner.""Wasn't I invited to dinner by the head of the Skovovich family in the hotel restaurant where they were staying?" To get Ananas to stop worrying about his coming to the estate, Tristan reminded his sister.Even though he was aware of Ananas' worries at the time of the Berserker attack, it was inevitable that Ananas would be terrified constantly. After all, an ordinary individual could not possibly overcome a Berserker's power. Tristan might be able to, but given that he was with Samantha, he might experience some difficulty and wor
As they approached the mountainous area that led to the vineyards, Samantha was surprised to find a much more pleasant atmosphere. The lush hills, not yet covered in snow, spanned as far as the eye could reach."Why does it look so nice over here?" Samantha complimented, compared to all the regions she had travelled to with Tristan."Didn't you say you used to live in a vineyard before?" asked Tristan, remembering that Samantha had said that.Samantha nodded. She agreed with Tristan's question and said that Samantha had lived near the vineyards for quite some time. "Grandpa said that vineyards are plantations that don't need much fertilizer and certainly medicine. So, according to Grandpa, vineyards and tea plantations are comfortable living places.""And you believe it?""Of course I do. My grandfather and I lived there for a long time, and we went on without knowing what the city was like during that time.""So, after your grandfather died, you had no choice but to stay there?"Sama
Samantha rested her head on Tristan's scent as he drove. Samantha also continued to hold Tristan's hand on the gearshift, taking the woman's hand in return and stroking the hand much smaller than her own palm."We picked a lot of grapes earlier. Would you like to share them with Ananas and the people back home?""Would they like it?"Tristan laughed. "There is no one who does not like grapes. Especially when I gave them access to the wine cellar in the mansion's basement, they were so happy that they got drunk all night, and the next morning, none worked. They were so drunk that none of them could even get out of bed," Tristan explained. Tristan explained.He recalled how ridiculous the servants in the mansion were when he gave them access to alcohol until Vaskal Stein scolded them, punished them, and fired some of the employees who worked there. Although Douglas and the Elders eventually rehired the servants, Vaskal fired them."Do they do that very rarely?""Uncle Vaskal has never a
"Please help her pick out a good outfit. I want her to look her best for tonight." Tristan said as he smiled at Samantha. "I'll wait outside until you're ready.""And your clothes?""I'll change when you're done," Tristan replied again.After all that, Tristan left Samantha with several slaves to assist her with getting dressed. He decided to go downstairs while waiting, where he also encountered some staff cleaning the tables and arranging the potted plants.Tristan approached the staff and asked for the staff members to assist with dinner preparation this time.The slaves appeared to be trying to convey that they were all under the Alpha's authority by keeping their faces lowered throughout the dialogue with Tristan and not daring to lift them in front of him."If you need to say something to the kitchen staff, we can help you say it, my lord." A servant said to Tristan."Tell them to bring some snacks to my room, some for Samantha.""Anything else do you need, my lord?""This eveni
Tristan observed his uncle's expression later. When he warned his uncle about the potential of war, his demeanour changed, and his eyebrows fell. His forehead began to furrow even more noticeably. Tristan continued to speak despite this."To be honest, I was surprised that Samantha is not only my mate but also a descendant of the missing Skovovich family. Something I can't believe, of course, but can't deny either." Tristan continued.Vaskal Stein listened without interfering, even though he didn't seem to enjoy their chat that day. Vaskal really appeared content to add to Tristan's remarks."The news that your fated mate, a servant named Luna, is a fabled Skovovich noble family member has just been made abruptly known. This is an extraordinary occurrence."At that, Tristan laughed. He disguised a face that was a bit embarrassed by the desire to chuckle that he could not suppress behind his downcast expression. However, Tristan decided to hold back a bit because he didn't want to irri
Tristan held Samantha's hand, who that night was wearing a short dress with a pleated skirt above the knee, a black dress full of glitter that sparkled in the light, also a gorgeous dress that fit Samantha's body that was not too thin but still showed her sexy aura. On the other hand, Tristan wore only a matching tuxedo with a white shirt and no tie.As they stepped out of the car, they were greeted by several waiters, and even the restaurant manager came to greet them that night."Please, your room is on the second floor." The manager told Tristan and Samantha.It was unusual for Tristan to be greeted like that. He felt very welcome at this dinner. However, since the guards were not allowed in, they only entered the restaurant together.The restaurant looked very crowded downstairs, but it was quiet when they got to the second floor. In fact, the benches were empty, as if they had yet to be used since noon. At the same time, there was a round table in the middle of the room on the se
"That's my father's name." Samantha interrupted them all.Tristan nodded. "That is correct. Your father's name is Milano Skovovich. But I haven't heard how Milano Skovovich ruled after he came to power.""That's because Milano never ruled, even though he was already in power."Barten Skovovich was speaking and staring at Samantha when Tristan turned to face him. The man's statements were commonplace, but he could not say that his tone expressed his feelings at the time. He even kept staring at Samantha, seated beside Tristan, without blinking."Is it because he married Samantha's mother that he stopped caring for the pack in Northern Eurasia?"Nodding, Barten Skovovich. He endorsed Tristan's assertions. "I am powerless to stop the man from going. We didn't try to stop him when he stated he didn't want to deal with the pack any longer. Still, instead, we merely wanted to offer Millano the freedom to act as he pleases without interference from anyone. Added Barten.The talk came to an a
"Please have a seat." Willow Ansvers asked her son to sit down in the chair, where snacks and a cup of tea were still steaming hot, seemingly just poured into the cup by Willow Ansvers."Did you really know I would come here, Father?""After something happened last night that seemed beyond your predictions, I thought the possibility was one hundred percent." Willow Anvers sat down in front of her son and picked up the teacup in front of her.The Lycan prince took the cup and started to slowly sip the hot tea after Gabriel. After he finished, Gabriel put the cup he had just drunk back down."Why do you think things got out of hand? Is it because Barten Skovovich's answer was not what we expected?""What do you think?" Willow Ansvers turned the question back to Gabriel. It was something Gabriel couldn't help but smile at. His father really knew how to play with his mind and his beliefs. However, Gabriel decided to take a moment to think about what he wanted to say to his father."I'm wa
Year after year passed, and Tristan got better at leading the Stein Pack. His business, the real world, and the people around him slowly improved. In fact, Tristan has also received recognition from everyone who once underestimated him. All the Pack Alphas who underestimated him have given recognition and a lot of praise to Tristan because of the young leader, including Elrick Dauntless, who was hostile to Tristan for rejecting his daughter as a mate and now, Elrick Dauntless also provides a lot of opportunities for Tristan to win some large shares in the Dauntless company and have more control in the business.There have been no problems whatsoever in the last few years of his leadership. Even the smaller Packs that had disagreed with Tristan had joined him in devoting themselves to Pack Stein, making Pack Stein bigger than ever.Everything was getting better. It's just that when things got better, Ananas, who had become part of the Lycans, decided to stay in Norway, in the castle o
"Why did you ask those brats to go outside? Why don't you just let them sit here and listen to the answers to the questions you want to ask me, the king." Asked Vaskal Stein as if he already knew what Willow Ansver would do by asking Tristan and his son-Gabriel to come out of the room."I just want to defend your pride.""Pride, huh? What kind of nonsense is that?""There's never any nonsense among us old-timers, is there," said Willow Ansvers with a smile, but the same smile was not seen on Vaskal Stein's face. The middle-aged man's face still looked haughty and not friendly, just like always."You're the only one who thinks like that. You even acted so stupidly that you hurt your own hand just for defending that damn boy.""Oh, what do you mean by this?" Willow Ansvers raised her bandaged hand. She smiled and nodded, "You're right, I guess I was stupid enough to know that I cared deeply for our successors.""The affection you show will kill them slowly.""I'm afraid I can't be like
As he had promised Willow Ansvers, the king of the Lycan, Tristan returned to the Stein mansion. The return was welcomed by Delaltrik and Neither, as well as several wolf warriors who swore allegiance to Tristan after Vaskal Stein was injured by Barten Skovovich a few months ago. "Welcome home, my Alpha. Did you have a wonderful trip?" Delaltrik asked with a smile as he welcomed Alpha and his Luna home. "Do you have something to tell me, Delaltrik?" Tristan guessed. But Delaltrik shook his head as he handed Tristan an envelope with a wax seal covering the folds so no one would open it before it reached him. "Who gave you this?" "Mr. Douglas Stein. He came the day before yesterday and gave this to me to deliver to you." Tristan wanted to open the letter immediately, but Samantha asked him to open it in her study. At the same time, she would go inside and rest. Tristan agreed to that. Several servants immediately escorted Samantha to her room upstairs. At the same time, Tristan went
Tristan spread Samantha's legs, allowing her to freely wiggle her pelvis between Samantha's legs as she moaned in pleasure every time Tristan's penis touched her sensitive spot."Ah! Ha—ah! Ah! hmn... ah! Alpha ... my Alpha!" The sighs continued to echo with the breeze from the open balcony, playing with the hanging curtains. Although the whole room had a good airflow and felt very cool due to the sea breeze that did not stop blowing, the entire room was full of pheromones emanating from both of their bodies, making the air in the room seem to be replaced by the pheromones emanating from both of their bodies.The moans that came out of Samantha sounded very loud, making Tristan even more aroused because of the pheromone scent he smelled from Samantha's body. Since Samantha got her wolf in hand, the scent of pheromones that had always been faint for Tristan could now be smelled very clearly in Tristan's nose and aroused him every time."Ah! Ah, ngh! Ha-ah! Hon, this is so good, I can
A cup of coffee was served to Samantha, who was enjoying the clear view of the sea from the balcony of a hotel room that she and Tristan had rented a week ago.Samantha smiled at Tristan, who had brought her a cup of coffee, and hugged and kissed Samantha's cheek as she thanked him."I didn't know that an Alpha who is a little arrogant and grumpy in front of others could be this romantic.""Do you think I would do such a thing in front of my own Mate?"Samantha smiled. She touched Tristan's jaw, and they kissed. Their lips were pressed together, a kiss that was getting more intense but had to be interrupted when the door to their room was knocked on by the room service officer from outside. Tristan snorted in annoyance, but Samantha tried calming her Alpha down and said she would see what the room service man wanted."I'll look at it for a while.""Next time I'll put a 'don't disturb' sign on the door." Tristan grumbled, but Samantha only smiled in response to her mate's annoyance.Wh
"Why are your hands shaking like that?" Willow Ansvers asked her son, who was wrapping a bandage around a severe cut on his palm."It's been two months since we left Northern Eurasia and your wound is still like this, father." Gabriel said, still wrapping the bandage around his father's hand.As he had said two months ago when they were in Northern Eurasia, his father got the wound because he had held Tristan's silver gun, which made his hand peel off. Even the bones of his palm were visible when the glove was removed from his hand, the flesh of Willow Ansvers' palm. However, Willow Answers just smiled and said that maybe this is what Tristan and his late father, Dominic Stein, felt when holding the silver gun."But it's not just about how it feels. It's about your health and condition, father. We all know the effects of silver and Wolfsbane are equally harmful to our wolves' bodies. Even though I know that you are very strong, it still doesn't have to be like this just to help that d
After getting such orders from Tristan, Neither immediately left the room and went inside. What he did not expect was that Samantha was still asleep. Still, it turned out that the woman who had been his close friend at the White & Co fashion house was already awake and listening to Tristan's conversation with Calissa Skovovich."Don't ask too many questions. I want you to do nothing." Neither ordered.Samantha could only nod weakly. She knew that there would be another attack by Barten Skovovich that night.While Neither kept Samantha in the room, Tristan walked out, ignoring Calissa Skovovich in the room, Willow Ansvers, and a few Elders who did not comment at all on Tristan's conversation with her.Tristan's steps were followed by Killian Fayez, Gabriel, and several wolf warriors who had come with him from London to Northern Eurasia. They walked with the pressure of the anger released by Tristan. They could smell the potent pheromones emanating from Tristan, the scent of anger and h
The car carrying Calissa Skovovich stopped in front of the cabin house belonging to one of the Elders in her Pack. However, almost all the wolves on guard there instantly surrounded the car Calissa Skovovich was in, all looking very wary and maybe even ready to attack if Calissa Skovovich was going to do whatever spa they didn't want."My lady, what should we do?" asked the driver who drove her there. The driver was visibly shaking with fear. Not because they were currently surrounded by wolf guards who were, of course, very strong. But those wolf guards and warriors also seemed to be able to kill them whenever they wanted, even without orders, because the driver was carrying Calissa - their main enemy."Don't do anything. I'll go down, but not with you." Calissa said as she pulled the door lever and exited the car.All the wolf guards and warriors looked even more alert, as if they would not tolerate the slightest suspicious movement by Calissa. Calissa herself did not try to do any
Tristan's order sounded absolute, making Neither and Killian, who heard it, no longer hesitate to attack their enemies.And as expected by Tristan, the soldiers who had served Vaskal Stein all this time now chose to turn to him. All of them were fiercely loyal and attacked blindly. They killed, clawed, shot and bit mercilessly like mad dogs that had just been released from a cage.Gabriel, who saw that, could only squint his eyes. He alternately looked at Tristan and Vaskal Stein's former loyal soldiers. In his mind, the Lycan prince thought that perhaps he was grateful that those people were now turning on them. Because if not, then they would all have a hard time dealing with those 'mad dogs'.Just as Tristan wanted, the Wolf warriors sent by Barten Skovovich all fell into terrible conditions. Their flesh was torn apart, blood pooled everywhere, and some looked no longer intact, like one hand or leg no longer in place. What a horrible death."Clean up all the bodies, if you want, bu
