Dasha's POV "Why are you here? Isn't it enough that our problems yesterday landed me in jail?" I asked the man who had just surprised me.Although he was wearing a cloak and mask, I could recognize him by the look in his eyes."I'm just here to apologize, Dasha!" Alpha Edmon pointed.My heart was pounding, not because of my feelings for him at the moment, but because I was afraid that someone else had seen us again. There were many spies in this pack."Sorry for what, I don't want anything to do with you or Rachel anymore." The man took off his mask while he looked around to see if anyone was watching."I know it's possible that you're really disappointed in me right now, but..."Suddenly, the sound of someone's footsteps approached, and Alpha Edmon immediately put his mask back on."What did I say, this is very dangerous what you're doing!" I scolded him."Hey, what are you doing here, guard Max? Alpha Felix will get angry if he finds no one guarding the front gate! I'm looking for
RACHEL'S POV.For the umpteenth time, when my eyes opened, I felt Alpha Edmon's absence. I had just extended both my hands to my right side. However, I immediately wrinkled my forehead as I did not sense anyone. I immediately looked to the side and saw that there was no Alpha Edmon. For a few seconds, I was just stunned with a confused look.I sighed heavily as my body immediately relaxed. This wasn't the first time Alpha Edmon wasn't beside me."Oh my. Alpha Edmon, do you really not want to sleep with me?" I muttered in a languid tone.I didn't know why Alpha Edmon never wanted to sleep with me. Since the beginning of our marriage, Alpha Edmon had only slept with me once, but even then Alpha Edmon had his back to me. I slowly moved to change my position to sitting. I did not move my gaze from the part of the bed beside me that should be filled by Alpha Edmon.In my mind, a lot of conjectures were spinning about why Alpha Edmon did not want to sleep with me. I shifted my gaze outs
DASHA'S POV."DASHA! WHAT DID YOU JUST DO?!"I winced in fear at the sound of Alpha Felix's yelling. I had expected Alpha Felix to be furious after witnessing me carelessly showing the wolf change.Our pack rules were very clear that no one could show their wolf side in front of humans. But I broke it. I accidentally showed my wolf side where it shouldn't have been."I'm sorry, Alpha Felix," I said in a shaky voice.Alpha Felix seemed to snort in disgust. This was not the first mistake I had made. It seemed like Alpha Felix was already very fed up with me-right down to my careless actions.I was kneeling guiltily to Alpha Felix. I'm sure my face was already looking very haggard. My eyes were filled with tears. Looking at Alpha Felix who was looking at me through his wide eyes, I was really scared. I felt that Alpha Felix was also disappointed in me for repeatedly making mistakes."I warned you, Dasha. You should have been more careful," Alpha Felix said as he pointed at me.I bowed
DASHA'S POV. "I really wanted to see Nicholas, but unfortunately he didn't notice my presence," I muttered as I stepped onto the park bench behind the Housepack dormitory. I still felt something was wrong after witnessing Beta Gerald's actions. It seemed impossible that Beta Gerald would come from another direction at the same time I was trying to approach Nicholas.That wasn't the only thing. My mind was a bit confused as I remembered Beta Gerald trying to walk away from Nicholas from where I was standing. I don't know why he seemed to be in such a hurry to keep Nicholas away from me. I sat on the park bench behind the House Pack dormitory. I tried to calm my mind, which was worried about Beta Gerald's actions. What he did reminded me of something he once said. "Does Beta Gerald really want me to stay away from Nicholas?" I muttered, questioning Beta Gerald's warning back then. I winced for a moment. This was very uncomfortable. I tried to find out why Beta Gerald had given me
RACHEL'S POV"Dasha, tell me the truth. Are you still seeing Alpha Edmon in secret?" I asked her.I couldn't hold my patience anymore after my conversation with Alpha Edmon last night. I had a bad feeling because I thought that Alpha Edmon was still in contact with Dasha behind my back.This morning, I went to the house pack dormitory to meet Dasha and urge her to be honest. I deliberately wanted to get her to confess whether or not she was still in contact with Alpha Edmon."Rachel, why did you come all of a sudden and ask me that?" Dasha asked with a surprised expression.I immediately laughed because I was tired of seeing Dasha's innocent reaction. Considering that there was an incident where Alpha Edmon secretly met her behind my back, do you remember them kissing?"Don't play innocent, Dasha. I know you two are still having a relationship behind my back," I retorted, deliberately pointing my finger at Dasha.Dasha was even more stunned by the persistence of my accusations."Rache
Rachel's POV"What's wrong, Rachel? When did you get here? You didn't tell me, and where is Alpha Edmon?" the barrage of questions came out of my Father's mouth."I'm just bored in the Nightfall pack, there is too much work being a Luna," I grumbled to him.My Father looked at me seriously as he put out the cigarette he had just finished smoking and asked me to sit on the couch in his room."Don't tell me you didn't do a good job as a Luna there. Don't embarrass me, Dasha," he said, not seeming to notice that he had mispronounced my name."Dasha?" I snapped, raising my left eyebrow slightly."Oh my goddess, sorry! I mean Rachel," my Father interrupted.I snorted in annoyance; how could he think of Dasha when he saw me?Then my Father called an Omega to bring drinks and some snacks for both of us."You have to believe that I can be better than Dasha, let alone take care of the pack!" I said, still a bit annoyed."Yes, I'm sorry I was wrong; I believe in you, Rachel, but you said you we
Nicholas' POV"Nicholas?" my father looked surprised to see me.I'd suspected something was wrong, a feeling I'd had the whole time I'd been outside the house pack. My father and Rachel were talking about Dasha, and Rachel even tried to ruin my friendship with her step-sister."Oh my gosh. You're so great, Rachel. No wonder I feel uncomfortable," I replied to Rachel with a sarcastic smile.I saw that Rachel looked nervous about my sudden arrival. Rachel glanced at my father before letting out an awkward chuckle."I didn't expect you to do this. You've been trying so hard to ruin Dasha and I's relationship," I said sarcastically to Rachel."Nicholas, listen. I didn't mean what you said. There's no way I'd badmouth my sister, is there?" asked Rachel, feigning innocence.I was tired of seeing people like Rachel. They feel no guilt and act like they haven't done anything wrong."I don't know why you feel so bad, Nicholas. How could I try to ruin your friendship with Dasha?" Rachel said ag
DASHA'S POV."Are you sure you want to do this, Nicholas? What if Dad finds out about our plan?" I asked Nicholas.Nicholas and I were already outside my father's office room at home. I was not allowed to leave the house and was serving my sentence to stay there.Unfortunately, I was just as curious as Nicholas. I had never tried to find out who my real parents were."Don't you want to know who your parents are, Dasha?" Nicholas asked back.True, I didn't have time to satisfy my curiosity about who my parents were."I thought about it. But since I was busy in the house pack and didn't know how to find out information about my parents, I just kept quiet," I replied listlessly.Nicholas looked at me with sympathetic eyes. For some reason, I had the feeling that Nicholas was hiding something. I didn't understand what it was.It felt very strange when Nicholas suddenly asked me to find out about my parents. We had almost forgotten about them all this time."Now I'm going to help you. Besi
Dasha's POVI had asked for a normal burial for Nicho, but Beta Gerald asked for his son's body to be cremated instead, he wanted to keep Nicholas' ashes in his room."I'm sorry, Dasha. I hurt you once and it made Nicholas feel hurt too." Beta Gerald said to me after the ashes were scattered.I rubbed Beta Gerald's shoulder and smiled, "He was a very devoted and loving son to his parents. There's nothing wrong with wanting to do your best. Thanks to your upbringing, Nicholas has become like a brother and best friend to me.""Nicholas was never wrong to choose you, I should have realized that earlier and made his life happy. I didn't expect his life to be so short," Beta Gerald said, crying again. I tried to calm him down.I remembered the beautiful childhood with Nicholas, the adolescence and adulthood that became more memorable. His silly behavior and laughter will always remain in my mind. This time, I couldn't lean on his shoulder to relieve my tiredness and sadness.It was too pai
Dasha's POV"Dasha, open the door quickly!" My mother said in a quiet voice.I quickly opened the door and asked what had happened."Nicholas died in the living room of his house. He was lying on the floor foaming at the mouth. Someone poisoned him, Dasha." My mother said.I immediately dropped the cell phone I was holding on the floor. The joy of reading Alpha Edmon's message had instantly turned to sadness.Without thinking, I immediately ran to Nicholas' house. I wanted to make sure he was okay. I was so unwilling to lose him, he was half of my life even though he was not the partner I wanted.Sure enough, the moment I arrived at Nicholas' residence. Beta Gerald was crying hysterically and Nicho's body was being tended to by some healers. My body fainted, I hadn't even had a chance to thank him for his kindness all this time. Even last night, I seemed to be making a face at him. Perhaps last night was the last time I saw Nicholas smile happily. I couldn't stop myself from crying.
Dasha's POV The next day. After the drama that happened yesterday. Rachel finally received her father's punishment. She was exiled to a house of contemplation near the edge of a lake not far from the pack house.Meanwhile afterward the atmosphere returned to normal, the activities in the house pack went on as usual. However, I saw from my bedroom window that Mother was often sitting silently on the balcony of her room, I knew she was saddened by Rachel's behavior and certainly pitying.“Helen, do you think I should comfort mom right now?” I asked the wolf in me suddenly as I looked into the mirror.“I think so too, it could be time for you to earn your mother's trust back, Dasha.” “All right. But Helen, I want to ask you again. Do you think there is still a chance for me to get back together with Alpha Edmon?” I asked the wolf in me.“Didn't your Dad disagree, especially now that he hates and cut off cooperation with the Nightfall pack last night.”“But Helen, I'm basically free to
Rachel's POV "Alpha Edmon, I'm going to make you regret making me so painful and rejecting me!" I scolded the man who was no longer my husband.I groaned in pain in front of my parents and the members of the Blue Moon Pack. Including the one person who was probably happy to see my suffering this time, Dasha.The problem was that the man had just taken Dasha somewhere, but not long after, Dasha returned to my presence."How could you, Dasha. Are you happy enough to see my suffering?" I asked.Dasha just looked at me sharply, as if she now dared to defend herself."I felt sorry for you from the beginning. Because you should be happy with all the life in the Blue Moon Pack. I don't want us to be swapped, I apologize for the mistakes Victoria and Jacob, my parents made," Dasha said."You know that, but why don't you just let me be happy and enjoy my current life, huh?" I snapped at her."Honestly, Rachel. I don't care about the luxurious life in the Blue Moon Pack. What made me sick in t
Alpha Edmon's POVI smiled at Dasha, whose figure now looked braver and less weak.“You've always been the best in my eyes, Dasha.” I muttered to myself.Despite the fact that with everything that happened, I was really frantic when Rachel and Dasha were arguing with each other. Although I trusted Dasha, my heart was sure that she couldn't possibly have any ill intentions towards my household.I then made a final decision that I would indeed reject Rachel. Her mistake could no longer be tolerated. “I can't live with a broken woman,” I spoke to the wolf in me.I also took a deep breath, after silently listening to the arguments of the people before me right now.“Enough! There's nothing to argue about anymore. Because I believe in Dasha more,” I said out loud. It didn't matter what people thought of me for believing in her more than I believed in my own wife.What I say is what I believe. Rachel looked at me with an annoyed and disappointed look on her face, but I ignored her.“What i
Dasha's POV"Of course I have proof, you won't be able to keep evading and maintaining your lies, Rachel!" I said.I was trying to do everything I could to stop Rachel from winning her goal. She had been caught lying, but she was still doing all kinds of things to deny it. She was so smart and cunning, it took a lot to bring her down secretly.Don't let what I'm trying to do to show the truth be defeated by her cunning ways. I racked my brain, if Rachel could deny, I couldn't lose.Nicholas looked at me convinced. The next day, after last night, Father asked us all to pause the matter at hand and told us to rest and discuss it the next day."You should have let us unpack everything last night," I said to Nicholas."No Dasha, last night the situation and conditions escalated. It's better this way, so we have time to strategize how to unpack everything in the right way."I sighed and said, "What else am I going to use to bring Rachel down, Nicholas? She seems like a tough one," I asked
Rachel's POVI felt more and more desperate, I couldn't do anything anymore. I was also embarrassed to show my face in front of my family and my husband. It was all because of William. If I could go back in time, I would think twice before doing anything.I stared sadly at Alpha Edmon, who was beginning to disregard my existence here. Aside from the bed separation, Alpha Edmon also seemed disgusted when I was around him.I tried to approach Alpha Edmon, sitting under the carpet and looking down."Alpha Edmon, please... forgive me. I promise I won't make this mistake again. Speak up, Alpha Edmon, don't be silent," I said softly. I hadn't heard Alpha Edmon speak all day.He, who was about to drink, abandoned his intention and put the glass down rudely on the table out of annoyance."I told you, I don't believe a word you say anymore. Shut up before I make you speechless," Alpha Edmon snapped, grabbing my jaw and making me grimace in pain.When I felt the grip on my jaw, I rebelled and a
Rachel's POV"Damn it! So this is all true? You and that idiot are in a relationship?" Dad got angry again.William's explanation made Dad angry. I hadn't expected him to attack me either, how sneaky and what's the point?)"Cheater! How dare he play with me?" I muttered to myself, trying to control my anger."That's right, we're both having an affair, Rachel and I are buddies, and isn't it only natural that we're in heat?" replied William, deliberately making things worse.I walked over and slapped him hard in annoyance. What I had ordered did not match the explanation William had given."Why do you say that, William? Tell them the truth!" I snapped. Furious, he didn't keep his end of the bargain.William's lips formed a smirk, his eyes piercing with warning. "What do I have to explain? Isn't that what really happened, Rachel? You and I...""Dad, don't listen to him! She's lying!" I said, trying to defend myself.I grunted in annoyance, even more embarrassed in front of my family and
Rachel's POVNo doubt my parents were furious when they found out that their daughter had betrayed them. My father didn't even hesitate to use harsh words.Of course, I was surprised because it was the first time I saw my father lose control and even play with my hands. "You went too far, Rachel! You've embarrassed me in front of this pack, you know I'm very disappointed, even more disappointed than Da_," my father said, immediately stopping his words."Dasha, you mean? I know, you just see her for the kindness, not me." I said with Sarcasm.I knew he was going to say Dasha's name. Comparing me to her."I'm sorry, Dad, Mom. Please give me a chance to make up for all my mistakes," I begged.Alpha Felix snorted in annoyance and looked at me reluctantly as I begged for his forgiveness. "How are you going to break through? You've already betrayed an Alpha behind his back and you know the worst consequences, right?" He explained again.He seemed to have guessed that an Alpha would only g
