CASSIEIt turned out that the special clothing was a cloak worn by witches. Where Isabela said, the cloak can protect all wearers, like a shield, because it has been given a spell. And the special weapon she was referring to was a bottle filled with thick black liquid which had also been given a spell which could be used to splash anyone who wanted to do harm. Where the liquid will turn into a thundercloud and attack whoever we call by name. I think that's the coolest thing I've ever seen. And those witches are used to things like that. “Are you okay?” Isabela asked. She kept a close eye on me during the trip because she was afraid something would happen to me and my baby. “Nothing bad,” I replied. We were still on the ship and would soon reach Pack Arcanum. In the end we decided to keep going together. Isabela left the royal business to those in charge and she told Ben to handle everything. Although there was an argument, Ben reluctantly let us go. He told us to come back safe
JAYDENI prepared to deflect the spear Alpha Alexei had launched. But a wolf suddenly jumped up and blocked my view. It wasn't one of my troops, it.... came from the other direction. And what was surprising is that the moment it was in the air, an enormous shining transparent shield appeared. The shield shattered the spear into ashes that scattered in the air. It happened in the blink of an eye like a flash of lightning. After that incident, I immediately ran to the edge of the cliff, looking down. Was I hallucinating? I saw Cassie! She was lying on the ground unconscious down there. I mean, wasn't she in Arcanum? Why am I seeing her here now?"Alpha Jayden, that is indeed Luna Cassandra," Hagen said. In that instant I jumped off the cliff and landed next to her. I hold her. It's true, I'm not hallucinating! Cassie was indeed in front of me."Cassie!" I immediately placed her head on my lap while patting her cheek lightly. "Wake up Cassie." I was still trying to wake her up
CASSIE[.... because the money you gave me wasn't enough, you will take care of it.] This call was unilaterally disconnected by father on the other side.To be honest, I still had no idea what he was talking about and was about to call him back. But suddenly when I had just put the stethoscope on my desk and was about to sit down, three men wearing masks burst into my office. One of them was carrying a rope and their eyes were all over me. I do not know who they are, but they are definitely not here for good intentions. So I slowly pulled out my desk drawer and took out a scalpel, gripping it tightly. Meanwhile, my other hand crept up to reach for the handle of the phone to call for help from hospital security.“Who are you? What are you doing in my office?”They didn't answer but they walked closer to me which made me walk backwards. Unfortunately I was trapped, there was no way out as I was on the 16th floor of the Pack Arcanum hospital building. “We are Madam Elie's people. You
CASSIEMy breathing was getting more and more labored as I ran further and faster. It was also because my head was still covered by the black cloth. I could only vaguely see the road ahead. Sometimes I looked back, afraid that they would catch me.This time they laughed when I looked back, because we weren't too far apart. Their running ability and mine were much different. That made them laugh at me like a toy trying to run away. Even though I knew they could catch me at any time, I didn't stop running because I didn't want to let myself be taken to a place where I didn't want to serve men.My tears were reaching the corners of my eyes. And that's why my vision became increasingly blurry until I finally fell down from tripping. I could only cry because I couldn't scream. I dragged my body away from the pimp's men.“Too bad you're already tired, but it was fun to see you running around like a scared cat.” In the end, they forcibly carried me back to the car.My hands and feet were
CASSIEI couldn't control myself. I should have pushed Jayden away and run because this was my chance to escape while he was drunk too.But I was enjoying our kiss too. And he seems to be enjoying it just as much as I am. I feel like I'm betraying myself for liking this with Jayden, even though I promised myself not to sleep with any man until I'm married. We were both out of breath and finally pulled away for a moment. Our eyes searched each other for the conviction that we would continue again. He wrapped his arms around my waist. And then Jayden buried his face in my neck and started kissing me again.*****I felt something heavy on top of my stomach. When I opened my eyes, that's when I knew it was Jayden's hand. He had his hand wrapped around my stomach. I moved his hand carefully so as not to wake up. He doesn't look as scary when he closes his eyes like this. All of this had happened and it wasn't a dream. Because when I opened the blanket covering my body, I found myself
CASSIE“Why do you want to marry me when you're also looking for Luna?” I saw Alpha Jayden gripping the wheel tightly. His burly hands were showing his muscles firmly at the moment. Is he mad?I suspected that something was going on in the Pack Nexus and I didn't know about it yet. This was quite suspicious.“There's nothing wrong with an Alpha looking for Luna,” he said in a heavy voice. There was nothing wrong with that, but usually an Alpha already had a woman he wanted. Or can even find his own mate. That's what makes me wonder why Alpha Jayden is still publishing news about finding Luna while he's also asking me to have a contract marriage with him.“What else do you want to ask?” he asked. I squeezed my shirt. “If you find your mate, will you divorce me and abandon me? I.... I don't want it to be like that.”He sighed. “Even if I divorce you, it won't be because I found another woman, but because the child has already been born.”I clutched my stomach tightly. This baby was g
CASSIEDespite almost losing consciousness, I could feel Alpha Jayden walking in a hurry. The moment his foot stepped out the door, the pain in my throat disappeared, completely gone and also the blood from my nose and mouth stopped flowing. This strange incident shocked everyone again. Alpha Jayden furrowed his eyebrows until they almost fused together. He must be wondering, but I don't have an answer if it's a question about what just happened to me.“Put me down,” I said.But Alpha Jayden wasn't listening to me. Instead, he took me back into the house, and locked me in a room. He trapped me between his arm and the door. “What happened to you? You.... why are you suddenly dying and healthy again?” He shook my shoulders. “Answer me!”I pushed him, I was fed up. “I don't know what happened to me either!” My breath is rising and falling with anger. “I don't know why I'm suddenly dying and why I'm suddenly fine. I'm confused too!”Alpha Jayden's eyes wildly looked into mine, as if c
JAYDENIt seemed like she lost her mind. Even her life doesn't mean anything to her anymore.She looked so frustrated.Cassie, she was a completely different woman, she wasn't afraid of death. “Goodbye, Alpha Jayden.”Unfortunately, I won't let her end her life. I will be the one who always prevents her death. I won't let her die because she is the woman who broke my curse. Cassandra Suri Jane, you are a myth come true. And how lucky I am that you came to me on your own.Now I can prove to that witch that what she said was wrong, she was mistaken for believing that there would be no she wolves with healing abilities like you. I moved quickly to grab the scissors. Sadly it had already injured her though not too badly. Her body went limp and I caught her. "What's on your mind? If you don't want your life, then give it to the child in your belly. It's innocent and doesn't deserve to have its life taken away."Her anger-filled eyes stared at me boldly, no fear at all like before. “

CASSIEI counted down from 10. Shortly, Isabela's personal assistant would come to deliver the food like he did yesterday.So I left nothing to chance, when he opened the door, I immediately pulled him inside."Tell Isabela that she needs to see Alexei as soon as possible. She can't wait long. I have a bad feeling if she delays."Ben placed my tray of food on the nightstand and then he swatted away my hand that was pointed at his neck with my hairpin. "Sorry, but we don't like violence here. If you want to talk, then do it nicely, no need to threaten like this."I did it to intimidate him and he told Isabela, there was no other intention."I won't hurt you if you do as I said. This is for the good of everyone. Before the war happens."“I'm sorry but I'm not your man, Luna Cassandra.”I grabbed his shirt collar. “You've been acting disrespectful from the start and I was going to forgive you because you're Isabela's personal assistant-”“Queen Isabela.”“But you're getting more and more
ALEXEI“Do you want to continue searching today?”“Tomorrow, you guys need to rest after these two days of searching non-stop.”“Good, Alpha Alexei.”My henchman as well as the Beta of Pack Arcanum, Ben, delivered my answer to the rest of the troops.The troops were divided into groups that searched the forests, borders, and residential areas. And I was currently in the forest, searching for any caves that Cassandra might have used.Unfortunately, the search in the forest and residential area was unsuccessful, there was no sign of Cassandra.The only hope left was at the border.We have all become victims of Cassandra's tricks. It turns out she teamed up with Noah to escape and now the two of them have no sign of returning here. She even fired stun bullets at us which proved that she had planned this escape well in advance, not a spur of the moment decision.Noah convinced me as if he supported my plan, but he stabbed me in the back. I had a gift for him that I would give him when we
JAYDEN“You better be looking for her!”“Please pardon our negligence, Alpha Jayden.”I threw everything in front of me.I don't know how many hundreds of things were broken, and I still couldn't find Cassie.I really didn't expect her to leave again.After the punishment I gave her, I thought she would wise and realize her actions. But I underestimated Cassie too much. She's the most stubborn person I've ever met. She also had such an innocent face that it fooled me.I felt sorry for her every time I saw her, so I didn't even know I was being fooled.I thought that after our conversation at the hotel that time, our relationship had improved, but it hadn't. I lost her just as things were getting better. I just lost her after everything seemed fine."Alpha Jayden, I don't think Luna Cassandra is still in the Pack Nexus because if she was, we would've been able to find her. But we still can't find her despite searching all over."I threw my sharp gaze at Hagen. "Where do you think Cassa
CASSIE"Then what should I do now? Will there be a ceremony to use your magic?“”No need, I can do that right now by myself."Wow, so this is one of the perks for being a witch? No hassle to hold a ceremony like us if we want to do something beyond our abilities.“Sit down and close your eyes, I'll cast the spell.”I obeyed her guidance, sitting on one of the chairs here. But before closing my eyes, I wanted to ask something,"You're not going to activate the spell on everyone right? I mean, only Jayden won't be able to find my whereabouts right?"“If that's what you want, then I'll grant it so.”I nodded in agreement and then closed my eyes.I was prepared that it might be painful, but after counting the time, I felt nothing.“It's done.”I opened my eyes and furrowed my brows, "that fast? Did it work already? Without the need to feel pain?“”Yes, I just need to cast the spell. It didn't make you feel any pain because that's how our spells work. Did you do something that traumatized y
CASSIEI didn't mean to attack her emotionally, I just wanted to know why I was the only child she had. Because if she had other ones, she probably wouldn't fight over me with the others, right? I mean, there are only two parties, Alexei and Jayden, which I can still handle, but this is three parties, I'm overloaded.“I can't do it, Cassie.”"Why can't you? You have a husband, you have an empire to continue. So explain why you're not making more children!"I knew my voice was getting higher and higher. I said I was losing control of myself because everything Isabela said was a new fact to me."I can't sleep with a man I don't love. I keep mine only for the men I want. And Arlo is not that man. So even though we were married, we never did."I covered my mouth with both hands."So, in other words, I'm the outcome of the mistake you made with Alexei? Because the man you love is not him but Jayden's father, right?"“No, it's not like that Cassie-”"Enough, your answer already proves that
CASSIE“You're right about me cursing Jayden, but I had a strong reason for doing so because my life and death were also at stake.”“What kind of reason would justify cursing an innocent person?”"He's not completely clean, Cassie. Jayden that you are talking about, he is also guilty."I sighed. "What's his guilt? Because he was born to a couple that you don't think should be together? Is that why you're cursed Jayden? Because he's the child of the man you loved whom he later ended up marrying with the other woman? Because of their parents? Because of mistakes Jayden didn't even make?"I sniffled my nose. "A child can't choose their parents, it's a fate they have to accept for life. Not only Jayden, I can't choose my parents either. So do you think he's still at fault in your problems with his father?""You don't know what it's like to be betrayed by the man you love so much Cassandra. When you put all your hopes in him, when he promised you things you've never gotten before, when you
CASSIEI blinked my eyes a few times.Now I understood why Isabela was fought over by Alexei to the point that he wouldn't marry any woman after her, even if it was just a one-night stand.She was like a real goddess, she was so gorgeous.Our eyes met and I could tell they were similar to mine.As if realizing that it wasn't just the two of us, Isabela gave the code through her eyes to her personal assistant who then left.“Come in, Cassie.” She invited me into her room.Actually, this is what a Queen's bedroom looks like. I've only seen it once in my entire life.Isabela held both my hands and her eyes were already glazed over. She saw the pendant I was wearing. "You are indeed my daughter, Cassie. I hardly expected to see you again." Then she hugged me tightly.Even though it was the first time this had happened, my heart could feel the emotion that Isabela felt. Maybe it was because of our blood ties. But I couldn't respond to her hug, I wanted to but not for now.There are so many
