Jaclyn‘s POVI was somewhat stunned by the tiny little girl in front of me, with her big, watery eyes and rosy, chubby cheeks.In that brief moment, it felt like something had pricked my heart, not painful but rather a sour and tugging sensation, indescribable.This was my own daughter, my flesh and blood, an alpha's daughter. And those eyebrows, those eyes, were just like mine when I was a child.No, I should say, she was even more beautiful than I was in my childhood.There was a time in my childhood when things didn't go smoothly because of this overly beautiful face, and I got into many fights.Anyone in the pack who dared to say I was good-looking would get a beating. "Good-looking" and "beautiful" almost became my taboo words.I felt that having these labels attached to me was unlucky and would hinder my completion of the alpha trial.However, now I suddenly realized that being good-looking might not be without its advantages.If I was good-looking, my daughter would be even mor
Jaclyn's POVNatash·Yael lowered her head for a moment before looking up, hesitantly saying, "I don't want to, and I can't be separated from Perry."I raised an eyebrow, "It's not that difficult, Natash·Yael. You know I'm busy, with many social engagements. I don't have the energy, time, or interest to marry another Luna. As long as you don't disappear without a word, I'm generally satisfied. Be a dutiful wife, and if you want to continue being a good mother, I have no objections, understand?"Natash·Yael was taken aback for a moment.Honestly, she couldn't quite understand me. With so many women outside, whether they were confidantes or business partners, when have I ever been short of female company?Having a woman at home as uninteresting as her held little appeal for me, and I neither liked nor loved her.Sometimes, Natash·Yael felt that I might even dislike her, thinking that in my eyes, she wasn't even worth keeping like a tasteless but not easily discarded chicken rib, and I ha
Natash's POVThe ward was a single room, and Perry was asleep. The two adults remained silent, creating a somewhat empty atmosphere. Jaclyn felt uncomfortable, sighed quietly, and left.As the door closed, the tears I had been holding back finally fell.Jaclyn·Dills returned half an hour later, holding a pizza box, which he placed on the bedside table.He spoke with a lack of warmth, "Eat something. If you're sick, no one will take care of you."I was taken aback and didn't lift my head to look at him.Jaclyn·Dills sat on the bed, gently pressing Perry's forehead. It felt cool, with a hint of sweat.He pulled out a fresh towel from the bag, washed it in the bathroom with hot water, wiped the sweat from the child's forehead, glanced at the wristwatch, took out a notebook from the side laptop bag, placed it on the nearby table, and began working.After finishing his work, he turned his head slightly and noticed that a cup of hot water had appeared at his side at some point.Jaclyn·Dills
Jaclyn's POVI find that I have no clue how to deal with Natasha Yael. She doesn't tell me anything, and if I confront her, I still can't let go.Despite all this, I still want to continue with her in the long run. People say men can be foolish sometimes.In dealing with Natasha, I feel like I don't even recognize myself.I'm indecisive, and though I talk tough, deep down I'm reluctant. I even threatened her with a court summons, left Red Valley Pack in a fit of anger, and called the lawyer – only to hang up.If it goes to court, there's no turning back for us. I understand that well. But that woman has always been silent, and I never knew she could be so stubborn.Especially considering we rushed into this marriage without much thought. Now she wants a divorce, and it's equally confusing for me.I wish I could open Natasha Yael's head and see what's going on inside. I'm frustrated, and I take Louis out for a drink to vent and talk about these troublesome matters with a friend.Louis
Natasha's POVThese days have been nerve-wracking for me.The courage that surged within me when Jaclyn Dills coldly declared his intentions and left drained away halfway. In the following days, my fear only grew.If I didn't understand Jaclyn Dills, maybe a moment of courage could be excused. However, having loved him for so long, I deeply know that he is not a forgiving person.Beneath his elegant exterior lies a heart that is the most indifferent and worldly.These days, his good mood is probably due to Perry's presence. Jaclyn Dills may be cold, but he cares a lot about family and children.Perry shares his blood, his flesh, his own daughter. I, on the other hand, am just an outsider with a different last name.I find myself unexpectedly envious of our daughter. Watching them, father and daughter, in the hospital from being strangers to becoming familiar and warm with each passing day, the innate connection of blood makes me feel somewhat redundant for the first time."Mommy, momm
Daniel's POVAt the moment the door opened, I couldn't help but feel a momentary daze.Natash·Yael stood there, holding a child, and her appearance made me feel like I had traveled back over twenty years.The guilt I had carried for so long about my ex-wife surfaced uncontrollably as I saw the resemblance between her and my ex-wife.Speaking of my ex-wife, she was not a bad person. She was gentle and understanding, a somewhat quiet woman. In the beginning of our acquaintance, I was drawn to this quietness.I thought, how wonderful it would be to have such a beautiful and peaceful woman. In those years, though we lived modestly, our life was warm.As my career progressed smoothly, I became dissatisfied.Dissatisfied with the tranquility of my wife, disdainful of her ordinariness. People are like that, when ambition swells, they become ugly, and so did I.The divorce was initiated by my ex-wife, but it was me who employed tactics.The cunning and intrigue of the political arena, when ap
Annelie's POVWhen I came back in the evening, Perry was already asleep.I didn't see Natash·Yael in the living room, so I pushed open the bedroom door. The cold hit me as I walked in.No lights were on in the bedroom, but it wasn't too dark. The heavy outer curtains were left open, and the window was wide open, allowing the northern wind, mixed with dry cold air, to sweep in.It lifted the sheer purple curtains at the window, creating a chilly atmosphere.Sitting on the windowsill, Natash·Yael huddled up, legs pulled close to her body. Her black hair fell like a curtain, hiding her face.In the chilly air, she seemed frozen, like a statue, radiating a loneliness that couldn't help but evoke pity.There was a faint smell of smoke in the room. Natash·Yael smoked, a fact known to very few.The first time I saw her smoke, I was genuinely surprised.In my impression, women who smoked had a certain disreputable air, always carrying a strong worldly scent. Natash·Yael, however, was such a q
Natash's POV I picked up my phone to remind Annelie, but before I could dial, the doorbell rang. I put the phone down and went to open the door, saying, "Forgot the keys." My words got stuck in my throat when I saw the person standing outside. Jaclyn·Dills' face remained somber, no different from the day we parted ways. His thin lips were pressed into a line, and he gave me an unfriendly glance before walking in without ceremony. When he saw Perry running around the room, his face suddenly lit up with a rather forced smile. It seemed a bit awkward and uncomfortable, and his change of expression was so rapid that I found it hard to adapt. "Perry, come, Daddy will hug you. Missed Daddy, haven't you?" Perry's eyes lit up at the sight of Jaclyn·Dills. She toddled over, calling out, "Daddy, Daddy," as she ran. In just a few days, she had learned to say it quite clearly. J aclyn·Dills, frozen for a moment, broke into a big smile. He picked up Perry and lifted her above his head, lett
The usually deserted art gallery suddenly bustled with activity today, as vehicles came and went, occupying the few parking spaces in front. Louis emerged from the war meeting only to find not a single parking spot available. He had to park his car in the underground garage of a nearby office building and walk over. His handsome features, commanding presence, and the military insignia adorning his attire immediately drew the attention of numerous people as he stepped into the art-filled gallery. The juxtaposition of Louis' military resolve with the artistic ambiance of the gallery seemed discordant, yet he paid no heed to the curious glances of others as he made his way straight to the reception desk by the stairs, where two young women in their early twenties stood. One of the girls, her cheeks flushed with excitement, stuttered, "C-Can we help you?" under Louis' direct gaze, her head involuntarily lowering. A flicker passed through Louis' eyes, a slight upward curl at the corner
On a sunny weekend, Jaclyn and Natash decided to host a rare family gathering, inviting some close friends and relatives to spend time together. They prepared a sumptuous lunch and a series of fun activities to ensure that the gathering was filled with joy and meaning.As guests started to arrive, the house quickly became lively. Familiar laughter and greetings intertwined in the air, adding a cozy atmosphere to the entire room. Children ran and played in the garden, while adults chatted in the living room, sipping rich coffee and enjoying leisure time.Jaclyn and Natash busied themselves with entertaining guests while also trying to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of the gathering. They warmly conversed with everyone, sharing their recent news and joys. These friends and family meant a lot to them, and they had spent many wonderful moments together with their support and companionship.Lunchtime arrived, and everyone gathered around the table to enjoy the delicious feast. The ta
Jaclyn povI, Jaclyn Dills, have never been involved in things like chatting on Instagram, but Natash always likes to talk about it. In my opinion, what's the point of chatting with strangers on Instagram? If they're friends, just call them, right? But Natash never tires of it.However, now I have to succumb to this Instagram thing. To deal with this situation, I spent half a day sitting in front of the computer, finally registered for an Instagram account, and then added a friend who could provide fake IDs. When he asked me what documents I needed, I simply replied, "ID card," and then there was silence. After a moment, the other side replied, "We don't provide ID cards." I quickly asked, "Why? I heard you provide all kinds of documents." Then I added, "Money is not a problem."There was silence again for a moment, and finally, he gave me an address to meet in person. I felt strange. Now these fake ID businesses have become like spy activities, but I just wanted an ID card, and I rea
Natasha's POVOne day, Marilyn, Cecilia, and I were playing mahjong at Louis's house. When women get together, private matters are inevitably brought up. Maria glanced at Natasha Yael's swollen belly and asked, "You guys didn't use contraception, huh?" Natasha Yael nodded, "We did."Marilyn chuckled and pointed to her own swollen belly, "Then how did this happen?" Cecilia blinked, "How did it happen?" Natasha Yael explained, "We used a condom the first time with Jaclyn Dills, but somehow, it happened anyway."Marilyn smirked, "You guys must have been too passionate to bother with a condom, hence this little surprise." Natasha Yael blushed, and Cecilia remarked, "Jaclyn Dills seems calm and elegant, unlike Morris, who's so restless. He must be very gentle, right, Natasha Yael?" Maria nodded in agreement.Marilyn snorted, "You guys are so naive. These men are not gentle or elegant; it's all an act. They're wolves in bed. Otherwise, why would Natasha Yael have this belly? They haven't sp
Jaclyn's POVFeeling depressed again. Natasha is pregnant once more. How am I supposed to deal with this? Especially after indulging in rich food for over a year, now I have to go vegetarian? It's just impossible.After having our son, I often joked with Natasha about adding a sibling for him, but it was just talk. I don't want Natasha to get pregnant again. The nine months of pregnancy plus the confinement period, a whole year of dietary restrictions because of her, I've had enough.I've been careful, almost always using protection. And when there wasn't time for that, we made sure to take precautions. But nothing is foolproof. Sure enough, Natasha dropped the bombshell on me today.I must have looked utterly devoid of joy, which must have hurt Natasha deeply. She looked at me, lips pursed, and said, "You're not happy." Snap out of it, I thought, quickly pulling her into a hug and planting a couple of kisses. "No, no, of course not, Natasha. I'm thrilled! You know how much I adore da
Natasha's POVJaclyn Dills brought me to the seaside for a vacation, and it's been three days already. Apart from feeling very familiar with the outrageous bed in the presidential suite of the hotel, I haven't even seen the sunrise.Well, that's not entirely true. Sometimes, when Jaclyn Dills keeps me up tormenting me until the early hours, I occasionally catch glimpses of sunlight streaming in from the window. But by then, I'm so exhausted that I neither have the inclination nor the energy to appreciate the sunrise he has always longed for.By the fourth day, I couldn't take it anymore and directly ordered Jaclyn Dills that if he didn't let me out soon, I would go home by myself. What kind of vacation was this anyway?Driven by Luna's powerful resentment, for the sake of my future happiness, Comrade Jaclyn Dills finally took Luna out for a walk in the evening of the fourth day.The hotel we stayed in consisted of separate villas with a private beach, offering a high level of privacy.
Jaclyn's POVOne evening, after Luna and I had just finished a round of playfulness, lying in bed catching our breath, Natash, who had just regained her composure, complained discontentedly, "Jaclyn, why are you always on top? Didn't we agree that I would be on top this time?"I innocently caressed Luna, saying, "Didn't I let you be on top for the first half just now? You seemed to be enjoying it, telling your mate to go harder, to speed up for Luna. How quickly you forget."Natash blushed, "Whether I'm on top or you move, what's the difference when you're on top of me?" I blinked, then rolled over to pin Natash beneath me, leaning down to give her a playful nip before smoothly sliding inside her. "Hmm," Natash murmured.Leaning close to Natash's ear, I lightly nibbled and said with a mischievous tone, "Luna, your mate will tell you the difference now. When you're beneath, I can support you here, making it easier." As I spoke, my hand reached between Natash's legs, parting them forcef
Tommy's POVThe day I first met Natash Yael is forever etched in my heart. Her clear little face, those calm yet stubborn eyes, seemed to become the most profound imprint of my life. As years passed and time weathered, the memory of her only grew stronger.Love, viewed from the rational lens of science, is merely a biological program, a culmination of hormonal effects and chemical reactions. The initial ardor of romance tends to fade with time spent together, even to the point of complete dissolution after a decade.Though my time with Natash Yael amounted to less than a year, I never forgot her in the nearly fifteen years apart. Despite nothing ever happening between us, she became the singular regret I couldn't shake from my romantic history.Longing compelled me to decide to return home. Luckily, fate smiled upon us, and we reunited as I had hoped. However, I had already forfeited the right and position to love her.Jaclyn Dills will never know how envious I am of him. There was ev
Natasha's POVMy mind raced through a few twists and turns, and I reached out, grabbing hold of his shirt hem, and pouted while blinking innocently, "Mate, can't I just say I'm sorry?" It was my go-to move when dealing with Jaclyn Dills.Sure enough, Jaclyn Dills turned around, sitting on the edge of the bathtub, "What are you sorry for?"I hurriedly replied earnestly, "I shouldn't have gone to the nightclub with my friends." And what else? Jaclyn Dills' voice softened a bit.I blinked rapidly, "And I shouldn't have stayed out past ten.""And what else?""And... umm..." I racked my brain for a while but couldn't come up with anything.Jaclyn Dills' gaze slid from my face to my body, and his tone darkened, "Where did you get this outfit? I don't remember buying you anything like this. Do you know how ridiculous you look, prancing around on stage in that?""It's not prancing, it's dancing."Jaclyn Dills pursed his lips, "If this is the kind of dancing you're learning, starting tomorrow,
