CHAPTER 48 BlessingSilas's POVThe morning sun shone in from the window that we hadn't closed the curtains over last night, and I opened my eyes to see Freya lying quietly in my arms. Her long eyelashes left a small shadow under her eyes, and my mark sat proudly on her neck where I had bitten her last night.I looked at the bite mark and felt a pang of satisfaction. Freya had finally accepted me and I had officially become her mate.Although I didn't want to leave this peaceful, quiet, and warm morning, I had other things to do.Freya was still exhausted from last night, and I carefully withdrew my arm from under her, thankful that she showed no signs of waking up.I got up as carefully as I could so as not to disturb her, picked up my clothes from the floor and practically tiptoed to the door. I paused as I thought about something and quickly turned back. Looking at Freya sleeping so peacefully, I couldn't help but lower my head and gently drop a kiss on her forehead before turning
CHAPTER 49 Out of ControlFreya's POVAfter allowing him to mark me the previous night I had assumed that I would wake up in Silas's warm embrace, and as soon as I opened my eyes I would be able to see those good-looking eyes looking at me affectionately.But when I woke up that day, the bed sheets next to me were already cold. It looked like Silas had been gone for a long time. I got up and looked around for him in the pack house but I couldn't find him. It wasn't until I spoke to one of the maids that I found out that Silas had hurried out with Leo early this morning.Although I was a little puzzled, I just assumed that he probably had some urgent business to attend to, so I didn't ask more. As usual, Silas's mother was painting in the studio.Before I knew it, it was noon and Silas still hadn't returned. I had lunch with Silas's mother and got ready to go to the jewelry store with my new design.The familiar servant in the pack took me to the car, and along the way I noticed that t
CHAPTER 50 Strange FeelingFreya's POVMy mind was already in turmoil and before I could stop it, the words were already out of my mouth. "Enough! Silas! You think I'm useless, right?"His eyes seemed to widen in shock as he stared at me with an expression of dismay, and then he explained as quickly as he could while gripping my hand tightly. "Of course not, Freya! I would never think that! It's just that something happened suddenly, and you were so tired yesterday. I just wanted you to rest a little longer...""Enough!" My roar startled not only him, but also myself.I didn't even know why I was so angry, and I couldn't even control myself. I was afraid that if I continued to stay here, that I would inadvertently hurt Silas, so I quickly withdrew my hand and turned to walk out."Freya! Please forgive me! Silas's anxious voice came from behind me, and I quickened my pace to get into the car, closing the curtain behind me just to block his pitiful face. No matter what I tried, I was un
CHAPTER 51 Refusing the ProposalFreya's POVSilas maintained his elite demeanor on the surface. If it weren't for the mind link from the mate bond, I would have a hard time noticing that he was feeling upset and aggrieved due to the argument that persisted between us."Just yesterday, the Pasquale Pack was officially merged into Embermoon Pack. I felt it my duty to inform everyone,"Silas announced this news as soon as he spoke, causing a stir of discussion. I heard some people say that he was the Alpha King of the year.It was good news, but whenever my eyes fell on him, I felt inexplicably angry.The meeting proceeded orderly with Silas's low voice as prominent in it as it usually was, until it ended, and everyone began to pack up their files and prepare to leave. I stood up too, but didn't dare to make eye contact with Silas throughout the whole process."Smack." I don't know whose folder made an impolite sound, and everyone's attention was drawn to Silas.I saw him slam shut the
CHAPTER 52 I DoFreya's POVMy pupils trembled slightly, and my rebuttal was stuck in my throat. My mind was far from calm.The Alpha King's selection was right in front of us, and if Silas could become my partner before that, he would gain even more power because of the Fated Mate bond. It was clear that it had already taken effect. Afew days after he marked me, Silas had the strength to defeat and absorb the Pasquale Pack into his own, which he had been hostile with for many years.Although the Ironclad Pack wasn't particularly powerful, our vast territory made us his next target.No! That's impossible! Why was I suddenly believing Lopo's words? My thoughts became confused again, and I pinched my thigh hard to try to clear my mind. The sudden pain helped me regain some clarity.I looked at Lopo coldly. "If your only reason for coming here was to tell me this, then you can leave.""I really want to help you!" Lopo held my hand and looked into my eyes. For the first time, I saw some s
CHAPTER 53 ALively Future LifeFreya's POVLegend has it that lovers who kiss under the statue of the moon goddess will be together for life. As I held on to Silas tightly I couldn't help but hope that maybe, just maybe we could be like the lovers in the legend."Let's go back home. Tomorrow, I will personally settle the account with Lopo," Silas said, clearly unhappy. Lopo had gone too far this time by directly drugging me, leaving me in a state of confusion.I touched the crystal necklace hanging around my neck and asked, "Did the potion really work?""I'm not sure. After we get back, let the doctor examine you carefully just to make sure. But as long as you have the blessing of the sea god around your neck, it can ensure your calmness."I nodded and prepared to return to Pack with Silas to plan our next move. This time, we must make sure that Lopo would never dare to try and appear in front of me again!We held hands as we got out of Silas's luxurious car and walked towards the hal
CHAPTER 54 FramedFreya's POVI mutter to myself as I search through the large drawer on the desk. Generally, important Pack files are stored here.I take out a stack of documents and search for the year I need. As I pick up another stack of documents, a piece of paper falls out and slowly drifts to the ground.I put the documents on the desk and bend down to pick up the paper. The words catch my eye:About the proposal to obtain the Ironclad Pack territory.I reached out and picked up the paper, carefully reading its contents, and my heart sank."Proposing to form a partnership with Freya Brown to obtain the territory of the Ironclad Pack... striving to expand the territory of the Embermoon Pack for better development." As my eyes fall on Silas's signature at the end, my heart stings.I have been reading Pack files every day recently, so I am very familiar with Silas's signature and the seal that symbolizes Alpha. This is a document signed by Silas!My chest feels like it has been h
CHAPTER 55 In DangerSilas's POVAlthough I could sense Freya's emotions through our blood link, it was difficult to determine her exact location. I had a strong sense of unease and wanted to find her as soon as possible.I pushed open the door to the hall where many people were already standing and walked to the front. I sat down with a deep scowl on my face as I began scanning everyone present.After another three minutes, the entire Pack had gathered in the hall, filling it to capacity. I didn't have time to waste with them and raised the file in my hand. "Who forged this document?"My tone was serious, and I subtly added the power of an Alpha to my voice as I thought about Freya's whereabouts. My voice penetrated through the crowd, reaching the ears of everyone in the hall. Some of the weaker Omegas were terrified and cowered on the ground, not daring to speak."My patience is running out. Don't test me."Suddenly, a small voice came from the corner, and I recognized it as Amy, wh
