Jonea got very emotional. She desperately wanted to know what had happened to Miller that day. Still, she was also afraid to hear that fact directly from Hunter's mouth. "Yes, I want to know what happened to Miller that day," Jonea said, closing her eyes and tilting her head back. The girl tried to hold back her tears from spilling. While Hunter was still lying with his head on Jonea's thigh. Hunter's position turned his back to Jonea. He didn't know if the girl was holding back tears. "Jonea, is this your purpose for appearing in our lives?" Jonea was taken aback by Hunter's sudden and unexpected question. "Do you think that we were the ones who harmed Miller?" Hunter's voice was slightly hoarse. Jonea was utterly silenced by Hunter's question. She wanted so badly to say yes, but Jonea realized she had no proof. She couldn't reveal the evidence she collected to Hunter, or his cover would be blown. Jonea didn't know what answer to Hunter's question anymore. Meanwhile, Hunter has
The black SUV carrying Edison stops at a closed nightclub. The men in all-black suits dragged Ed by force into the club, which was full of guards, even though there were no customers. They took him to a particular room which became the office of the club administrator. During the day, the club is tranquil. There were only a few workers doing the cleaning and a few staff who looked like gangsters walking in and out of the place. Edison's hands were tied with a strong rope. He kept rebelling and didn't want to be dragged around like a loser. But, the two well-built men who carried him didn't want to let their guard down. They held tightly to Ed's arms and kept pushing until they stopped in front of the office door. One of the men knocked on the door before opening it. "Boss, we've brought him here." "Let him in," replied a gray-haired man in his 60s. The man rose from the high-backed chair holding an uncut cigar. Two bodyguards pushed the still-bound Ed to his knees in front of the
"Stop!" shouted Ed until the veins popped into his neck and arms. "She has nothing to do with any of this. Don't involve her! I don't even know her," Ed said hesitantly. At a glance, Jonea saw Ed's face had turned into a wolf with growling jaws and then returned to his human form. "Is it true you don't know her? How about it, Miss? This young man claims he doesn't know you. I am allowing you to leave here without a fuss." Jonea glanced at Edison. The girl knew that Ed was only trying to protect her by claiming not to know her. But, Jonea would not back down. She had decided to come there and would take Ed with her. 'If the same thing happens to Miller, I hope someone will save him. I don't want anyone else to end up like Miller–suffering and hurting alone.' "I don't care if he admits me or not! I will not leave this place without taking him along!" said Jonea firmly. "Wow, this is really interesting. Are you able to redeem it, Miss? He owes us a huge debt," said Jay. "How much d
Jonea's mind was already wandering all over the place. "You want to sell me? You want to make me a whore in the club tonight?" Jonea sounded very emotional and couldn't contain her fear. "What?" asked Jay, no less surprised. He had not expected the girl before him to think that far. The old man suddenly laughed. "You think I'm going to make you a bar girl? Your expectations were too high, Young Lady. Look at you! You absolutely do not meet the qualifications to be a barmaid." Jonea looked down at herself and suddenly crossed her arms over her chest. She glanced at Jay curtly. "You don't think I deserve to be called a woman, do you?" Jonea was a little offended. "No, I didn't mean physically," Jay said. He was still laughing. "Well, you are beautiful. You also have perfect proportions, as long as you do a little makeup and wear a dress that fits. However, it's not about appearance. Your character… you are completely unsuited to be a bar girl." Jonea breathed a sigh of relief. "T
A man stood to greet Jonea in room 504. He was stunned to see the appearance of a strange girl he didn't expect. "Who are you?" asked the man. Jonea was nervous and stuttering. Before Jonea could answer, a woman on her treatment bed coughed occasionally and then spoke. "Has she come? Where is my future daughter-in-law?" Quickly bring her here. Mom wants to meet her." They were separated by a curtain, so they couldn't see each other. The man was nervous when asked so by the mother. "A-uh, Mom. There seems to be a misunderstanding. It wasn't my future wife who came, but the nurse." "Y-yes," Jonea said like a fool. The man glared at Jonea and demanded an explanation from the girl. Jonea was nervous and repeatedly bowed in apology. "I think I entered the wrong room. I want to visit my relatives. She should be in room 505. I'm sorry." Jonea repeatedly bowed and left the inpatient room. She breathed a sigh of relief when she closed the door and stood in the hall. Jonea took another
The three police officers forcibly dragged Jonea and Suzane–the former artists hiding in the 505 treatment room. As they were in the hallway, they heard the sound of footsteps approaching. The police officers stopped, as did Jonea and Suzane, who continued to struggle. 'Elmar?' Jonea gasped in surprise when she saw Elmar Delamo approaching them. Jonea immediately lowered her head and hid her face behind the back of one of the policemen. 'It's bad! Elmar must not know I'm here, let alone be involved in an illegal transaction.' "Mr. Delamo, you coming?" Who is one of the police officers? Jonea, who was still hiding her face, was shocked. 'Is that Elmar the culprit? Was he the one who called the police here? But how did Elmar know about this transaction?' Slap! Jonea's thoughts were interrupted by the sound of a loud slap. She turned her head in surprise as Suzane slapped Elmar across the face unceremoniously in front of everyone. 'They are lovers? Gosh!' Jonea screamed in her hear
Suzanne rolled her eyes in disbelief. She glared slightly at her only son. "Should I believe that? Of the many Lunas, I've introduced to you, none of them you consider a lover. And now, this girl?" "Yeah, Mam," Elmar said firmly. "I love this girl. And I will make her my mate," said Elmar without taking his arms off Jonea. He wrapped his right arm from behind under the girl's chin. Jonea, who heard that, could only glare. She tried to escape from Elmar's embrace, but Elmar locked her tighter. "I thought you wouldn't make a stupid mistake like your dad, Elmar," said Suzanne in a lower voice. Then she closed the limousine door and asked the driver to take her from the police station. Suzanne Davine leaned back on the leather stool and closed her eyes tiredly. The driver spoke into the intercom. "Are we going back to the hospital, madam?" "No, Ben! That I returned home. My son has made a very reckless decision. I have to fix it soon." "Okay, Ma'am." The atmosphere in the limousin
Jonea just finished closing her fried chicken restaurant. She has to replace her mother and father to extend their visit to the country to care for Miller. Jonea accidentally brought fried chicken for her to take home. However, her footsteps stopped right across from the rooftop house where Edison lived during his escape from home. "Is he okay after that incident? Even though he said the problem was resolved, I still feel worried." Jonea stared at the bag of fried chicken in her hand. She knew Edison really liked the fried chicken. Jonea also dared to cross the road while tightening her coat on her body. She also wore a knit cap and ear protection. Jonea jogged until she reached the other side. She quickly climbed the stairs to the rooftop house where Edison lived to get some warmth. "Although I'm not sure he's still here, what's the harm in trying?" Jonea rubbed her thickly gloved hands together before knocking on Edison's door. Her hand just rose, but the door was already open.
"Hunter?" Jonea was surprised. "Sorry, Jonea. My stupidity should not be forgiven. I always come late. I hope what I did at the last second didn't disappoint you." Jonea took Hunter's helping hand. The young man picked up Jonea and helped her out of the front of the truck. "Bring the leader of this rebel army to me!" shouted Hunter to his men. The masked man was forced to kneel in front of the Hunter. Hunter pulled the man's mask off and hit him hard. Jonea, who was standing behind Hunter, immediately looked away. Miller was already conscious even though the condition of his muscles which had been numb, had not fully recovered. "Why are you still hunting down the Fallon family? You heard the leadership of the Abraham Pack passed into my hands. Cassandra Abraham is no longer in power. I've even sent him into exile! Who gave you the order this time?" Jonea was stunned to hear that. 'So, Hunter really fulfilled his promise. He got rid of and punished his mother. Then, what about m
Aland glanced at Miller and nodded briefly. Aland commanded his troops to prepare to face the special forces sent by Mrs. Abraham.They all didn't care, even though Ares Abraham had announced that the leadership of Pack Abraham had now been taken over by Hunter Abraham. The special forces consist of trained people. They were personally recruited by Mrs. Abraham. Most of them are criminals and dangerous criminals."Jonea, seek shelter!" asked Aland."You asked me to hide? Do you think I'm a weak girl who needs protection? Do not dream. I will also join the fight with you!"Aland shook his head."You stubborn!" said Aland and Miller together. They were silent for a moment, then laughed together."What are you guys laughing at?" reprimanded the special forces leader, who felt offended.The special forces simultaneously turned into wolves.Aland and the leader of the special forces are now facing each other. The fight is done traditionally, like a fight between two groups of wolves. The t
"We've found Miller Fallon!" one of the warriors reported to Mrs. Abraham via radio telecommunications."Take Miller back to base. Did you guys find the twin sister too?""Yes, Alpha. The girl was with Aland Hamilton. What should we do with these two people?""Get rid of–"Bang!Before Mrs. Abraham had finished giving orders to her men, who had managed to surround and arrest Miller and Jonea, Hunter had entered the main tent and cut off the telecommunications line.Mrs. Abraham was surprised to see Hunter's sudden appearance."How did you get here? Have you recovered from your drunkenness?""Stop all these games, Mom! You've gone too far.""Why did you suddenly appear and oppose me? After all this time, you have always complied with all my requests and words, Hunter? I did all this for your future. Later you will inherit all this leadership. You will replace me as Alpha King."The two bodyguards who protected Mrs. Abraham approached when they saw Hunter's reaction, who was so angry an
The werewolf squad sent by Mrs. Abraham arrives at the shack where the Fallon family is hiding. They surrounded the hut from all sides. There are quite a number of them.Meanwhile, the hut was only guarded by two warriors from the Hamilton Pack. The two guards glanced at each other and smiled knowingly."We must protect this family even if our lives are at stake."The colleague nodded. "This is a dedication to our oath of allegiance to Aland Hamilton."The leader of the raid squad was approaching the hut."Leave the Fallon family to us! It's useless to dodge. This place is surrounded, and there is no way you can fight us."One of the hut keepers approached. "Perhaps you misunderstood. There was no Fallon family in this hut. There are only the two of us here.""You want to die?""You are free to kill us if indeed we are lying. But, it is just the two of us in this hut."The leader of the raid troops raised his hand to order two of his men to enter and inspect the hut.The two warriors
Jonea and Miller opened the notebook together. The paper inside looks so yellow that it's almost brownish. It was a notebook written by hand using special ink."What is this, Mom?""That is the only inheritance left by your birth parents."It's like being struck by lightning on a sunny day. They did not know they were not Mr. and Mrs. Fallon's biological children.Both Miller and Jonea thought that Mr. and Mrs. Fallon might actually be a lycan couple hiding their identities. Absolutely unthinkable if they are just adopted children."That book contains your family tree. On the last page, you will find out the names of your parents and who they really are."Jonea and Miller actually flipped to the last page. There are a pair of male and female names on it. The character looks so beautiful and foreign at the same time."Who are these two people, Mom?" Miller asked."Alarick Rawling and Bessie Raff? They are your biological father and mother."Mrs. Fallon tried to smile even though she wa
"Calm yourself first, Jonea. I'm sure they're fine.""What did you say? You say you're sure they're all right? Does that mean you haven't met and seen their situation firsthand?"Jonea was about to run, but Miller held her back."I'm looking for our parents to the village around the forest. I found their trail. So, I'm sure they are fine now and are hiding in a safe place.""Then let's go find your parents now." Aland suddenly appeared behind them.It's almost morning. They left the forest and headed for the nearby villages. Miller managed to follow in the footsteps of his parents. However, the trail disappeared once they were out of the forest."Of course, they erased and hid the tracks," Jonea commented. "If not, of course, the hunters will catch them.""Do any of you have any ideas? Where do you think your parents will hide in a situation like this? I don't think they would leave you guys without a clue." Aland gave his opinion.Jonea and Miller exchanged glances."Of course, there
"Then what do you think I can do? I'm even just an Alpha display in my pack. It looks like they think of me as a powerful Alpha on the outside, but my mother is actually the Alpha.""Listen to me carefully, Hunter. My chance to talk to you is only this time. Before the guards took you back to the prison, your mother created."The two bodyguards who had come to the bar with Hunter approached them. One of the bodyguards even tried to get Elmar away from Hunter."It's okay; he just wants to go to the toilet. I will help him walk. I also want to go to the toilet." Elmar supported Hunter's arm on his shoulder. "You guys just wait here."Elmar literally took Hunter in his arms and helped him to the toilet. The two bodyguards couldn't believe it. One followed behind and even watched at the door as Elmar and Hunter entered the men's room together.When they were alone in the toilet, Hunter returned to being himself. He is no longer drunk. No matter how much alcohol he downed, Hunter was still
"Joea, come with me. We're leaving here. We could go to Auckland until we find a comfortable place to live.”Aland's eyes twinkled with hope. He rubbed the top of Jonea's head gently and lovingly."You can go back to school there. I can continue my studies and work. Can we live in the suburbs or work as farmers? I have a plot of farmland and ranch that we can manage together."Aland whispered those sweet words in Jonea's ear after marking the girl as his."Right now, we are in a race against time. Blue Sapphire's condition is not good. It was only a matter of time before the rebels might fight back with much greater strength. Constantly hiding in the forest is not the right choice."Jonea looked back at Aland with a big smile and was satisfied."Sounds so cool and so perfect. It's as if everything you mentioned is like a dream to me."Aland's face suddenly turned sombre."I want to!" said Jonea. "Of course, I want to live happily with you, with the people I love. However, leaving the
Jonea let go of Aland's hand and went to Miller's side."I'm sorry, Aland. I must come with Miller to check on my parents at camp."Aland clenched his fists and swung his fists in the air. "Okay, we will go there together."Aland whistled for his comrades and subordinates. It was then that several young men and women appeared carrying their bags of supplies. The warriors and hunters gathered around the river.Jonea was a bit surprised because she didn't notice their presence earlier. Miller was being so wary."How did you manage to hide your whereabouts? I can't even get a whiff of your presence at all.""We train ourselves," Aland replied. "Because we also don't want to stand out after leaving the city life."Aland turned to his men. "Secure the roads and the surrounding area. We're going to camp to find Jonea's parents."They all bowed and received Aland's command by turning and crossing one arm over their chest.Miller took the lead at the front. Meanwhile, Aland walked beside Jone
