Selena's POVI was skillfully painting on the canvas with my right hand. At the moment, I had a hat and scarf on to keep my ears warm. I pulled the scarf up to cover my mouth, leaving only my nose exposed for breathing, and continued to paint.We painted until noon, and then everyone went back to town to grab a bite to eat. After our meal, we took a short break. As the sun shone and the warmth enveloped us, we returned to the bridge to continue our painting session.Since it was getting hotter due to the rising temperature at noon, I had to remove my hat and scarf. I also took off my coat and put it aside.My boss approached me, squatting down beside me, and carefully examined my painting. "I have faith that your work will stand out, and you never cease to amaze me..."I pursed my lips and smiled. "Thank you, I've learned from the best."My boss sat down on the dry grass, his gaze fixed on the lake, which was gently rippling with waves of light. He spoke slowly, "You know, I've encoun
Writer's POV Selena, who had just woken up, was completely bewildered when she saw a woman almost shoving her claws into her face. "Who are you? And why are you shoving your claws in my face?" Selena asked, clearly confused. Upon hearing Selena's words, the woman frowned and became more and more furious. In order to maintain her dignity, she forced herself not to vent her anger. Instead, Abigail, who was next to the woman, stood up and said sarcastically, "Selena, stop pretending! Some people said that your boss never went out after he sent you back yesterday. He was with you all night!" Selena blinked and asked, "Is that what all this is about? Don't you know where Mr. Martin's room is?" Abigail raised her head and said with a little pride, "This is my boss who also happens to be Mr. Martin's mate." Abigail glanced at Selena provocatively, as if to say, it's your final days, girl. "Oh..." Selena reacted very calmly. She looked at the lady and said politely, "So she's my bos
Writer's POV As Martin spoke, Abigail's face turned pale and she panicked. She looked at her boss for help, "Miss Sylvia...." Sylvia turned her face away as she looked at her mate, her stern face showed that she was angry. At this moment, she could not protect herself, so how could she defend Abigail? It would be better to fight for herself and save her marriage. "Abigail, I took you like a sister and trusted you, why did you lie to me and want to ruin the relationship between my mate and I?" Abigail's pupils shook violently, and she looked at her boss in disbelief. She didn't expect that she would not only want not help her but also put all the blame on herself. Suddenly, her eyes became red and misty, and she was about to cry. "I didn't do anything wrong or caused troubles.." "It's a lie!" The lady who defended Selena earlier spoke before she immediately added, "You spread rumors about Ms. Selena and my boss, we are all witnesses!" Abigail bit her lips tightly and didn't s
Selena's POV Rufus's unexpected appearance at the hotel took me by surprise. He lifted me into the car and allowed me to sit directly on his lap. The car's heater was turned up high, so I didn't have to worry about getting any colder. I let out a sigh of relief as I leaned against him, feeling weak. I was clearly exhausted, but I didn't want to fall asleep. I breathed in the nice scent of Rufus's body, feeling incredibly comforted and almost wanting to savor it forever. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Rufus pick up a water bottle, unscrew the cap, and take a sip. "Here, have some water." He handed me the bottle after taking a drink. Without hesitation, I opened my mouth and took a few sips. My throat felt much better. Suddenly, I remembered, "You... you drank from it directly." My face instantly turned red. Rufus chuckled, "It's not like we haven't already kissed, why do you care about this?" "Don't say that." I quickly covered his mouth with my small hand, but it was t
Selena's POV My throat was scratchy but quiet. Rufus turned his head away, as if he didn't hear me. He gently sat me down in the chair when he finally sat down. The servant quickly served dinner and then left. There were three of us at the table, me, Rufus, and Samantha, with the maids standing. Lillian was nowhere to be found. It seemed like she hadn't left her Spell room unless it was important. We ate quietly, with the occasional clinking of spoon.. Samantha kept staring at me from time to time. I quickly ate, got up, and said, "I'll go back to my room to take a shower first." Without waiting for Rufus to respond, I had already made my way upstairs. The heating in Yellow Moon Pack was too poor, and I hadn't taken a good shower in the past two days. Now, after dinner, I just wanted to take a comfortable shower. I had just made my way upstairs when Rufus's voice sounded, "Take a shower later. It's not suitable to take a shower just after dinner. Don't wash your hair
Rufus POV Selena has been sick for a week. Although she didn't have a headache again, she was not in good spirits. She always coughed and couldn't cheer up. I pushed aside all my work and took care of her in the house every day. Now there's every possibility that she's the white wolf with the blood of King, I couldn't allow anything to happen to her. Davies came over every day with many company documents and also the pack issue. My phone ringing suddenly jolted me out of my thoughts. I swiped the screen connecting the call, " President Rufus, do you know we actually have a project to win? If you're not interested in winning, I am. Why haven't you come to the company for the past days?% Right now, i was in the kitchen watching a video on iPad to learn how to make bear pepper soup. I wore a pair of black headphones on my ears and opened my lips. "I have something that is really important to do and I can't go to the company these days." "What is so important to you if not your
Long Episode !!! Rufus's POV I was still in Lillian's spell room but my wolf, was getting uncomfortable all of a sudden. *Rufus, Selena!* Eclipse said at the back of my mind and I almost scoffed. *Dude! We just saw her an hour ago. She's definitely fine." I rolled my eyes as I block him out and turn to face Lillian who has a frown on her face. "Is something wrong? Why is there a frown on your face?" "I think something is wrong...." "With the spell?" I raised my eyebrows to her.. "No! Not that. Something else is definitely inside this house.." Before I could say something else, Lillian was already out of the spell room. "Your contracted bride Rufus.." Lillian yelled from outside the spell.. "Wait, what? My contracted bride.." I also rushed out of the spell room as I was already behind Lillian.. Lillian and I had just taken a few steps forward when we suddenly had a loud scream. The scream was not just an ordinary scream. It was a powerful scream that made my w
Writer's POV Rufus remained silent and didn't respond to his cousin's opinion on love. Yes, Edward is Rufus's cousin, and Edward's parents were the ones who adopted Samantha. Edward looked around and asked, "Where's my baby sis?" "She might be sleeping upstairs." Hearing Rufus say that Samantha might be sleeping upstairs, he decided not to go see her. Ava effortlessly took out three cups from the wine cabinet, opened the good wine brought by Edward, poured a cup for each person, and sat on the sofa, with a tone of watching the melons hanging out. "I'm telling you, you sure don't want Edward in Nightfall pack. Because she sure gonna cause chaos but in Nightfall pack and Shadow pack." Ava only mentioned Shadow pack because Shadow pack was very next to Nightfall pack. Edward pursed his lips and sneered: "May the moon goddess have mercy on whoever I catch flirting with my mate..." Ava took a breath and glared at Rufus, as if she was looking at the murderer of him. Rufus turned
Epilogue"My baby... Roo!"Selena was crying nonstop, and since this was a first for them, Rufus was at a loss for what to do.Is the baby already coming? Should i take her to the pack clinic by now?Selena stood there, legs apart, as if she was hesitant to let anyone near her."Selly... Come here. Come here," Roo said softly, moving closer and wrapping his arms around her."Rufus...!""Lillian, go get the pack doctor!" Rufus shouted, and Lillian rushed out to find help.Meanwhile, Selena continued to cry, tugging at Rufus's shirt, and suddenly, a sharp pain hit her like menstrual cramps, causing her to scream in agony."Argh!!!!"She clutched Rufus's shirt tightly, her nails digging into his chest."Rufus! It hurts. Moon goddess, please...!"Ignoring the pain she was causing him, Rufus quickly scooped her up, her weight not bothering him as he dashed into the room."This way, doctor."Lillian returned with one of the pack doctors.The doctor rushed in, ready to help."I'm so scared,"
Writer's POVThree Days LaterSelena let out a big yawn as she stretched her tired limbs. Suddenly, she opened her eyes and found Rufus staring right at her."You're awake! How are you feeling? Should I whip up some food for you, or do you want to freshen up first?" Rufus bombarded her with questions, leaving Selena unsure of how to respond.She closed her eyes and rubbed her forehead, feeling overwhelmed by everything he was asking.Selena exhaled deeply. "What actually happened? I can't remember anything..."Rufus settled on the edge of the bed, took her hand, and gently tapped the back of her palm. "Sweetheart, it's been three days since you fainted.""What?" Selena interrupted, her eyes going wide in disbelief."Shh! That’s not all," Rufus continued. "The pack doctor said you fainted because you’re pregnant... Defeating Nireus took a lot out of you."Selena blinked rapidly, as if she had just seen a ghost. "Pregnant? Defeat Nireus?!""Yes! You're pregnant!" Rufus said excitedly
Writer's POV "I get that you have every reason to doubt me, but you really need to believe me. It’s only a matter of hours before Nireus and his men show up here," Issa said, locking eyes with Lillian. Both Lillian and Issa were trying hard to keep their feelings in check, but their eyes revealed a lot. "That’s not going to happen. There’s a barrier that keeps out anyone with bad intentions," Davies said, his teeth clenched. He hesitated for a moment, as if recalling something important. "But how did you…" "It’s because I came here peacefully and mean no harm," Issa interrupted, cutting off Davies. "You have to believe me, Lillian. Nireus has witches who can break that barrier," Issa insisted, her gaze still fixed on Lillian. Lillian took a deep breath and muttered, "Come with me..." "Lillian, I know she’s your aunt, but you don’t have to trust her..." "She’s not my aunt, Davies. Just go back to the border," Lillian replied, her voice tense. "I’m not leaving you with her," D
Issa's POV As soon as I was out of Nireus' sight, I picked up my pace. Once I exited the big hall, I hurried to the horse stable. I glanced back to ensure no one was tailing me before I approached one of the horses and released it from its stall. "Let’s go..." I murmured as I mounted the horse.This was the first time in years that I had stepped outside the Red clan's territory, or maybe even out of Nireus' cage.Luckily, it was slightly bright. Maybe 2Am or 3AM.I had nearly forgotten how stunning it was out here.I gripped the reins tightly, racing past the trees and various clans.Before I left the Red clan, I had cast a spell on every path I took. It would be tough for Nireus to track me down.I looked up at the sky, catching a last glimpse of the stars as it slipped behind the clouds. The day was getting so bright,, and I was running out of time.Only a few hours remained unti the day finally brighten very welll, and I needed to find Lillian or the council of Werewolves to pr
Writer's POVMyrine looked absolutely stunning in her pink and creamy white dress. When she spotted Issa and Lord Nireus approaching, she paused her conversation with the other two and happily walked over to greet them.She wrapped her arms around Issa, exclaiming, "Issa, it’s so wonderful to have you back!"The two people Myrine had been talking to introduced themselves as Dares and his brother Chares. They seemed a bit distant and quickly found an excuse to leave."Greetings to you, my Lord." Myrine said before turning her attention back to Issa. "I noticed you were just chatting with Kleopatra and her husband," she said, fiddling with the beautiful heart-shaped pendant around her neck, "I’m sure you remember who her husband is, right?""Of course I remember Aeson. I was only gone for a few years. My memory is still sharp," Issa replied with a shrug and a smile."I knew you would," Myrine laughed."They're here.""The rogue vampires and werewolves are here!" the crowd suddenly shout
Writer's POV Lord Nireus stood by his window, a glass of wine in hand, staring at the sky before his attention shifted to his wardrobe. "Come on, Issa," he said softly, tapping the wine glass with his finger.As if responding to his call, the wardrobe began to shake violently."Bless Lucifer," he whispered, a grin spreading across his face."Coming!" he nearly shouted, quickly placing the wine glass on the table. With a flick of his fingers, the wardrobe swung to the side.Taking a deep breath, Lord Nireus rubbed his palms together and pressed them against the wall, squeezing his eyes shut.Suddenly, the wall cracked open and swung back, and with a loud thud, a woman in that is naked tumbled out."Oh, my dearest Issa! It’s wonderful to have you back. Together, we shall rule the universe!" Lord Nireus exclaimed, crouching beside her and gently caressing her face.Though Issa looked pale and weak, she managed a faint smile at his words.Seeing him after so many years only made Issa wa
Selena's POV I rested my head on Rufus's chest and asked, "What was the situation at the border?" He sighed, "It's being handled. Apparently, one of the Alphas was behind it.""Oh!" I mumbled, wishing things could just go back to how they used to be. I really didn’t want this power."Williams was here," I swallowed and then added, "And I almost burn him to death," "That mother fu*ker was here?" Rufus growled lowly.I looked up at him shyly, my eyelashes fluttering, and a playful smile crept onto my face, making Rufus let out a low rumble from his chest.I didn’t say anything, but I reached up and slipped my hands under his shirt, gently tracing my fingers over his defined abs. I wrapped my fingers around the back of his neck, pulling his lips closer to mine.Right then, I craved to taste him. I couldn’t understand this intense desire that had taken over me, this urgent need to have him with me all the time.It wasn’t like this when I was with Williams...*Ugh, Selly. Do you really
Writer's POV "What’s happening?" Edward asked when he spotted his cousin Rufus."There was a breach. The guards managed to take down a few of them, but…""But what?" Edward pressed."A few of them found a way to sneak in…" Rufus sighed heavily, rubbing his forehead."They can’t stay here; Lillian will track them down," Davies pointed out."Plus, she’s desperately trying to do just that, but we really need to keep our defenses up," Rufus replied. "I think you and Davies should check the inner area. Look for anything suspicious, search around the houses, and then regroup here later. I’ll go join Lillian and Selena on the border.""Cousin, you’re forgetting something important. You need to be with your mate," Edward argued. "She’s safer with you right now than anyone else, especially until she learns to control her powers.""She’s completely safe," Rufus insisted."You have no idea. She’s a white wolf, Cousin. There are plenty of people out there just waiting for a chance to capture her
Writer's POV Lord Nireus was standing on a high stage surrounded by the clamoring crowd. His remarkable position allowed him to have a clear view on everything on the open arena. The sound of weapons colliding sounded routinely from before him, and the sound of steel tearing steel was definitely more satisfying to Lord Nireus ears than any fine instrument could be. This is the biggest field in Reds tribe. In the field, there are just two men battling each another. One of them is tall, wearing dark covering, and his swordsmanship is exceptionally powerful. The less flashy fighter facing him had no elaborate armor, just a simple layer of rust-resistant fabric that matched the color of the ground. The only decoration was a bright lion's head emblazoned on his chest. His sword skills were also significantly stronger! Surprisingly, he was nearly a head shorter than the man across from him, yet he managed to overpower his opponent with sheer strength! As the duel started
