Patrick's eyes turned colder. "I don't have time to waste with you. Listen up! Gloria is my mate. As long as I am Alpha, she is the only Luna of the Black Thorn Pack! If I hear that you don't address her as Luna again, I will make you leave the pack no matter what my grandfather says!
"Tell me, where is Gloria now?" Patrick asked with anger. Ever since Christine joined the Black Thorn Pack, she had never missed Patrick's mink link. Moreover, Gloria had not called him and told him that she was going to the Silver Spring Pack today. She went there behind his back, yet she and Christine lost contact with him. If Alex had not fallen unconscious suddenly and was sent to the emergency room, or if Patrick had not seen through Alex's fake illness, he might not have associated Gloria's missing with Alex. Gloria had an accident in the Silver Spring Pack, and Alex stalled Patrick in the hospital. It couldn't be a coincidence. Patrick pursed his lips.When Patrick confronted Alger, Gloria was woken up by a bucket of cold water in an old warehouse. A lamp hung from the ceiling, and, perhaps from bad contact, was flickering. Gloria slowly opened her eyes and was blinded by the dim light above her head. She wanted to raise her hand to block the light, but she could not move. She looked down and found that she was tied to a chair with her hands behind her back. "You finally woke up!" A familiar voice suddenly rang out. Gloria looked over and then laughed. It was hard to tell her emotions. "How come you are still laughing!" Damon was infuriated by her laughter. Gloria was much more composed than Damon had expected, and Damon could not tolerate it. "You slut! You are a vicious murderer!" Damon roared angrily. "If not for you, Gabrielle would not have died! It was all because of you that she was raped by those rogues! You damn bitch!" Gloria's expression was calm, and she looked
"How can you do that?" Gloria questioned Damon angrily. Though Gloria hated Gabrielle, she still found it hard to believe that Gabrielle was killed by Damon. She had thought of all kinds of possibilities except for that. "Why?" Gloria looked at Damon. "Why would you do such a thing? I thought you cared for Gabrielle deeply." She was not seeking justice for Gabrielle. She just couldn't accept it. Before she was twenty years old, she had lived a carefree and luxurious life. After that, her life was nothing but torment. She had experienced the best and worst in the world. So, Gloria thought that nothing in the world could shock her anymore. But she was wrong. Today, Damon stood in front of her and told her without any remorse, "I killed my sister and then framed you." She had been wronged for three years, and she had to figure out why! Damon wouldn't do this only because he wanted to frame her. It didn't make sense. "Why?
Gloria had been living with her grandfather, while Harry preferred to stay with her parents. Once, her grandfather gave her a ruby. She was happy as she liked shiny things very much. She held the ruby and looked at it under the sun. Harry wanted to snatch it and was pushed away. She didn't use much strength, but Harry fell to the ground. The maid saw it and said to her, "You are an ill-bred child without parents. How can you push Harry?" Gloria was stunned. She didn't understand why the maid said so. She asked the maid on the spot, "I have Daddy and Mommy. Why do you say that?" The maid was also stunned. She curled her lips and said, "You have always stayed with your grandfather and are not close to Alpha Alger and Luna Camille. I was worried when I saw Harry fall to the ground and say something stupid. Gloria, don't tell your grandfather about it, okay?" At that time, Gloria was young, so she believed the maid's words. Now, because
Although they were prepared, Gloria and Christine were scared and closed their eyes subconsciously. Time seemed to have stopped. Gloria didn't feel pain. She felt something warm dripping on her face, and she opened her eyes in confusion. The next second, her eyes widened in horror. "The dagger is made of silver. Don't you feel pain?" Gloria stared blankly at the hand that blocked Damon's dagger. Patrick's blood was dripping on her face. Patrick's face was ashen. He pursed his lips tightly and stared at Gloria for a long time. Only when he confirmed that she was safe did he feel his heart beating again. Patrick suppressed Leo, who was about to go berserk. He turned around and glared at Damon, whose face was pale. Before he could say anything, Damon had fallen to the ground. Damon's lips were bloodless. He said in a low voice, "I want to avenge Gabrielle! Gabrielle died because of her. Why is Gloria still alive?" Damon's voice
Christine suddenly realized something. She stretched her arms slowly and hugged Gloria. She said reluctantly, "Have you made up your mind?" "Yes. And I'm sorry," Gloria said with guilt. "You don't have to say sorry. You have figured out what really happened back then, and there is no more misunderstanding between you and Alpha Patrick. But, why do you still want to leave?" Christine was puzzled. Gloria shook her head and smiled bitterly. "The grudge between me and him will always be there. Since he rejected me and sent me into the werewolf prison mercilessly, we could no longer make up again." "But the misunderstanding has been resolved!" Christine emphasized again. "Women are foolish sometimes. I also want to fool myself, but I can't do it. Every day and night, the wounds on my body are constantly aching. They remind me of what happened in the past. I can't deceive myself that everything is over." Gloria's tone was sad but firm. 'Moreover
Ellison and Patrick were exhausted from fighting. They lay on the ground, panting heavily with wounds on their bodies. When Leonard arrived with a group of people, he saw Ellison and Patrick fighting back and forth. Ellison's subordinates stood aside and did not make a move. Leonard understood that it was a one-on-one battle between Ellison and Patrick, and their subordinates didn't need to participate in it. Thus, Leonard confronted Ellison's subordinates. They were all elites among the guards of the pack. Although they did not make a move, the atmosphere between them was tense. Though Ellison and Patrick were exhausted and fell to the ground, no one went up to help them. After a while, Ellison's phone rang. He took it out and pressed the answer button. He listened to it and then put on a satisfied smile. Ellison got up from the ground, and his footsteps were a little unsteady. He looked down at Patrick, who was still lying on the
Leonard was efficient. The Black Thorn Pack had been in Gabbs for so many years and was well connected. Ten minutes later, Leonard replied, "Alpha Patrick, forty minutes ago, the car left Gabbs." "I was right..." Patrick closed his eyes and clenched his fists. He said inwardly, 'I was right that she was only pretending to obey me." He punched the table angrily. The sharp part of the broken table cut his hand, and his blood dripped down on the table. Patrick regretted it very much. He couldn't blame Gloria's excellent acting skills. It was all because he had deceived himself. He didn't forget that Gloria wanted to kill him that night! He thought that he could keep her if they had a child together. It turned out that Gloria had never given up on the idea of running away. Patrick suddenly opened his eyes, which were filled with desperate determination. He roared, "Go after her!" He wouldn't let her run. He would rather die in he
The taxi driver was easygoing, and Gloria chatted happily with him on the way. Gloria suddenly realized that she only tried to escape, but she didn't know what she would do after she arrived in Hawaii. 'I've got plenty of time to think about it,' Gloria said to herself. She was glad that she had sold the box of jewelry for a large sum of money. "This is my first time in Hawaii, and I want to live in a quiet hotel. Do you have any suggestions?" Gloria asked. "A quiet hotel? Why? Most people would choose busy places, yet you want a remote one. I live by the seaside. Last year, I remodeled my house into a family hotel. If you haven't booked one yet, you can stay at mine if you want." The driver said enthusiastically. Time passed slowly, and they approached the beach. "Can you open the window?" Gloria said anxiously. As the window rolled down, she reached out her fingers, and the cool wind touched her fingertips. It was the feeling of f
Luana never expected that after Cline let Calvert in, he would continue to kiss her.It wasn't until she heard Calvert's voice that she understood his intention.Although she had already let go of Calvert, seeing his eyes turn bloodshot with despair still startled her.She couldn't help but feel that the man struggling to rush towards them wasn't Calvert, but Albion.Because only Albion would lose control when he saw her being hurt by another man.Instinctively not wanting to upset Albion, she struggled desperately.But the more she struggled, the harder Cline kissed her, even going so far as to slide his slender fingers inside her clothes right in front of Calvert."Cline, don't touch her!" Calvert roared in a fit of madness, wishing he could rush over and kill Cline.But his body was pinned down by the bodyguard, leaving him helpless as he watched Cline take possession of Luana bit by bit.Luana forcefully pushed Cline
"So you did plan this with him!" Cline's cold, emotionless voice came from above Luana's head, making her pause for a moment."I didn't.""Then how did he know you were here?""I'm not sure, maybe it's because..." Her explanation was cut short by Cline's cold interruption."Stop making excuses. Getting your bag back wasn't just to contact him, was it?"Seeing Cline's stubborn and indifferent expression, Luana fell silent.He had already made up his mind that she had contacted Calvert to pick her up. No amount of explanation would convince him; it was futile."He comes to pick you up as soon as you're recovering. If that's not premeditated, then what is it?" Cline's distrust and relentless questioning left Luana feeling exhausted.She took a deep breath and replied indifferently, "Yes, I did arrange with him. The day I could walk again, I asked him to come and get me."Hearing her admission, Cline's lips curled into a col
"Remember to use the scar-removing medicine," Eva said. With her delicate and elegant appearance, she was the epitome of beauty—her face couldn't afford to be marred by scars.Eva nodded in agreement and left with her medical bag.As the dean of a private hospital, her schedule was usually quite busy.Had it not been for Cline, it would have been nearly impossible to get an appointment with her.Thinking of Cline, Luana felt a lump in her chest.She couldn't understand his intentions. He was about to get married to his fiancée, yet he kept her locked up at home.Did he want Runa and yet couldn't bear to let go of her?If that was the case, Cline was being incredibly greedy.Luana glanced at the floor-to-ceiling windows. At some point, the sky had darkened and a heavy downpour had begun.The weather matched her mood perfectly, prompting a deep sigh from her.As she sat on the bed, hugging her legs and
"Only a day apart, and you're already missing each other so much. It seems your old flame has been rekindled?"Faced with his sarcastic remark, Luana didn't bother to explain. She simply lowered her long eyelashes, hiding the discomfort in her eyes.Seeing her silence, Cline's face turned even colder. His grip on her chin tightened uncontrollably."Didn't you say you didn't love him anymore? Why are you rekindling your old relationship?"Luana endured the pain in her chin and forced a smile at Cline."If I can be your lover for years without loving you, why can't I rekindle my relationship with him?"It wasn't clear whether it was the first part of her sentence that choked Cline or the latter that left him speechless, but it made him so angry that he couldn't find words.Luana glanced up at him and saw his usually frosty, charming eyes gradually turn bloodshot. Her heart jolted, but she quickly suppressed the involuntary feelings that
Calvert seemed to have lost the strength to speak, only managing a faint nod.Clarissa knew his stubborn nature from childhood. Trying to persuade him to leave would be futile. So she steeled herself and told him the truth."Every time Luana is taken away by Cline, she won't be back in less than two or three days. You can't just keep squatting here, can you?"Judging by his reaction, it seemed he already knew who Luana had sold herself to back then.Since that was the case, there was no harm in telling him the truth. He wouldn't stand a chance against that man anyway.Clarissa's words hit Calvert like a sledgehammer, delivering a fatal blow."Every time?" he asked incredulously, his bloodshot eyes slowly turning towards Clarissa. "For these five years... she's been with Cline?""Mm-hmm," Clarissa replied indifferently. That single word, however, almost caused Calvert to collapse.He had thought she had only sold herself once, b
Hearing this, Luana felt even more guilty. "Clarissa, he got hurt trying to save me. Could you tell him to go back to the hospital first? I'll come to see him in a few days."Clarissa latched onto the key phrase. "Save you? What's going on?"Luana briefly explained the incident with Travis's private revenge.Upon learning the truth, Clarissa shouted that she wanted to teach Travis a lesson.However, upon hearing that Cline had already dealt with Travis, she immediately fell silent."So... you're with Cline now?"Luana could only nod in affirmation, not daring to hide anything from Clarissa.Clarissa sighed deeply and muttered, "What a complicated relationship," before hanging up the phone.She put her phone in her pocket and, carrying a large pot of corn chowder, walked towards the entrance of the small apartment.She had been excited to bring the soup to Luana to help her regain her strength, but as soon as she stepped
After Eva left, Cline glanced towards the guest bedroom and noticed the door was ajar. His expression darkened immediately.He unconsciously quickened his pace and entered the room, only to see Luana adjusting the IV drip.Her small, palm-sized face showed no significant emotional fluctuation. She remained as gentle and well-behaved as before.She even smiled at him when he entered, which dispelled his doubts.The volume of his conversation with Eva hadn't been loud enough for her to overhear.Cline subconsciously let out a breath of relief and sat down beside her bed, asking, "Feeling better?"Luana nodded and replied, "A bit better."Then, they fell into silence. The atmosphere was somewhat awkward.Seeing that Cline had no intention of leaving, Luana couldn't help but speak up, "Mr. Moriarty, could you help me find my bag?"Her bag had been left in the banquet hall at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Her phone and other belon
Cline finally put down the vegetable salad and picked up a napkin to wipe the corners of her mouth.In the five years she had been with him, he had never taken care of her like this. Luana was utterly shocked.She stared blankly at the man in front of her with her clear, innocent eyes, feeling as if all of this was surreal.Cline, however, didn't seem to find anything amiss. He calmly wiped her mouth with the napkin.After cleaning her up, he took out his phone and called Eva. He asked Eva to bring medical equipment to the villa.Hearing this, Luana quickly snapped out of her daze and said, "I'll be fine with just some rest. There's no need to trouble Dr. Eva."Cline glanced at her coldly, his tone domineering and brooking no refusal. "Whether it's troublesome or not, I'm the one who decides."Luana had no choice but to keep quiet and let him arrange everything...When Eva pushed a cart full of instruments into the room, Cline
Cline coldly interrupted him, "No meeting."Russell immediately seemed a bit embarrassed. "Mr. Moriarty, he is, after all, the CEO of Coburn Group. Right now, people from Coburn Group are constantly asking me for him. I can't keep him locked up forever..."Russell's meaning was clear—he could withstand the pressure for a while, but not for long.Cline's face darkened as he thought for a few seconds, and finally relented, "Let him go."He then hung up the phone directly and looked at Luana, who was examining him.In fact, Luana had already guessed who he was talking about and didn't ask.As long as he was willing to release Calvert, she could thank him later once she had recovered a bit.Cline stared at the IV drip for a while until the liquid in the bottle was completely gone, then he helped her remove the needle.Luana glanced at the three bottles of medicine still on the side. Logically, they should be administered one
