Selena's Perspective Louisa's expression turned into a frown instantly, "That's not true. I don't have a crush on your sister." I stared at Louisa for a moment before bursting into laughter, "Seriously? Your eyes just blinked three times, they already gave you away. " Louisa has this habit of blinking three times whenever she tells a lie. The fact that she actually liked Ava amused me because she always disliked Ava's way of living. Louisa chuckled, "Okay, but that was in the past!" She said, and I rolled my eyes because I knew she was lying. "Enough about Ava!" She wrapped her arms around my shoulder as we walked into the Eco building and asked, "By the way, how are you going to celebrate your birthday this time?" "I don't think I'll be celebrating," I replied nonchalantly. Louisa gently patted my head, "What do you mean? After the full moon ceremony, the next week is your birthday..." "The full moon ceremony is in January, and my birthday is in February. Besides, we are s
Writer's POV Mrs. Habsburg gently washed her hands, ensuring they were clean before she carefully opened the various dishes prepared by the cook. As she surveyed the different dishes before her, a satisfied smile graced her lips. With a nod of approval, she gracefully exited the kitchen. On the table, a master card caught her attention. She picked it up and handed it to her daughter, Selena, with a warm smile. "Honey, it's the full moon celebration period. There is some money in this card. You can buy whatever you want." Selena glanced at the card and shook her head, a hint of maturity in her eyes. "I'm not a kid anymore, mother. You don't have to give me a card for every full moon celebration." Growing up with her grandmother, Selena was accustomed to receiving an envelope filled with money or a bank card during the Full Moon ceremony. She didn't spend much of the money, choosing to save a small sum instead. Mrs. Habsburg placed the card directly into Selena's hand, her voice
"You're already working, and you still expect us to give you money?" Mrs. Habsburg glared at Ava with anger. "Well, Selena is also working," Ava retorted, raising her chin. "I knew it, none of you love me in this house." "You still have the audacity to speak after you stole my car, huh? I can give my money to whoever I want. It's your turn to have an opinion!" Mr. Habsburg exclaimed. "And you're just idle all day, driving around and causing trouble for me!" "Technically, I didn't steal your car. You locked up my car in the garage and took the keys," Ava said, looking at their Grandma with a pitiful expression. "Grandma, you have to support your older granddaughter!" Grandma held the tea cup in her hand and glanced at Ava, smiling softly. "Your dad is right, you're no longer young. It's time to calm down, settle down, and not reject your fated mate just because you want a wife..." Ava suddenly felt troubled upon hearing her words and changed the subject. "I finally understand, I'm
Writer's POV As Selena strolled through the yard, she couldn't help but notice the Gardenia flower in full bloom. The sight was so captivating that she couldn't resist plucking a few flowers to take with her.One of the flowers she picked accidentally fell to the ground. As she bent down to retrieve it, a gentle evening breeze swept through, causing the leaves to rustle and the creamy white petals to dance in the wind.Looking up, Selena witnessed the Gardenia flower gracefully floating in the sky, and it brought a smile to her face.Unknown to her, Rufus had stepped out of the car and stood at the door, observing the scene with his dark eyes.The moonlight illuminated Selena's adorable face, and her bright smile resembled a small sun, capable of melting away the cold and illuminating the darkness.The surroundings were so quiet that Rufus could hear his own heartbeat, rhythmically pulsating like a beating drum.Brushing off her dress, Selena turned around and suddenly realized
Writer's POV In the woods, two black wolves transformed into humans. A male and a female.“Are we in the right place? Shouldn’t we meet her here?” The male asked.“These kids have no patience nowadays.” An elderly woman with white hair appeared before them.“Did you just call us kids? I'm 25, not a child,” the male retorted.Ignoring him, the woman turned to the female.“I thought you were coming alone,” she remarked.“He’s someone I trust, so don’t worry,” the female reassured.The old woman shook her head and sniffed the air.“You're not alone. You’ve been followed,” she warned.“What? But no one saw us coming,” the female exclaimed. “What should we do?”“Leave,” the old woman advised.“Let’s go,” the female instructed the male, and they transformed back into wolves and departed.The old woman chuckled and scanned the woods as if hunting.Meanwhile, Rufus and Davies changed into their hidden wear, creed hood, before leaving.“Why is everything so quiet?” Davies wondered as
Selena's POVWithout realizing it, the full moon ceremony came and went, and suddenly, it was my birthday.Lately, Rufus has been quite occupied. There are times when I don't even see him for two consecutive days.I'm not sure if he's intentionally avoiding me or not. Ever since that 'almost-moment' we had during the first day of the Full Moon ceremony, I hardly catch a glimpse of him. He leaves early in the morning and returns late at night.Honestly, a part of me actually misses him.As I yawned, my phone vibrated, signaling birthday wishes from Ava and Louisa.A smile formed on my face as I replied to each message one by one.Luckily, today is my day off from the office, so I don't have to work.After having breakfast, I went back to my room to take a nap. At 12 o'clock, I woke up, freshened up, changed into a black puff-sleeved long dress, and headed to my parents' house.My mother had called me a week in advance, inviting me for a birthday dinner at home.Surprisingly, my
Selena's POV "What's that? You should be happy that I called you my heart," Louisa said, rolling her eyes. I couldn't help but smile. "Come on, open it and see if you like it!" Louisa urged me eagerly. I could sense her excitement, maybe a little too much. As I unwrapped the beautifully wrapped box, I couldn't help but ask, "You didn't get me something strange, did you?" "Why would I give you something strange? This gift was carefully chosen just for you!" she replied, her tone serious. I opened the box and my mouth dropped open in astonishment, my eyes instantly lighting up. "No... you didn't..." It was a stunning jade-green pendant on a delicate gold chain, featuring a captivating werewolf statue at its center. The truth was, I had been searching high and low for this exact design but couldn't find it anywhere. "Louisa, where did you buy this? I've been looking everywhere..." Louisa's face beamed with pride as I hugged her tightly. "I freaking love you, Louisa. You must have
Writer's POV Selena's voice turned sharp, "My husband is not a thing." "Who is not a thing?" Williams retorted, "That werewolf? I bet I can please you better than him. Can he even satisfy you?" "Rufus, you jerk..." Louisa got caught in the middle of the argument. She was so mad that she stood up, ready to argue. But before she could say anything, a figure burst into the room from outside and kicked Williams, followed by a menacing growl. Caught off guard, Williams fell to the ground. Before he could react, the lady grabbed him by the collar, raised her arm, and landed a hard punch on his face. Both Selena and Louisa were taken aback. Their eyes widened in shock as they gasped. Williams, now on the ground, turned his head and locked eyes with Ava, who was seething with anger. He stood up and spat out furiously, "Get lost, bitch! I have nothing to do with you." Ava sneered. "Oh, you think you have nothing to do with me, huh?" Before she could finish her sentence, she d
