Roberta POV"Marcus would have died if it weren't for me." Zora's arrogant voice echoed in my ears, filled with thick provocation. Every word of hers was like a sharp blade, stabbing into my heart.I could no longer ignore Zora's existence. Every time she mentioned her "life-saving grace", Marcus chose to remain silent. I thought Marcus loved her because of this, but now it seemed that this love had turned into a shackle binding him. This raised a hint of suspicion in my heart.Early the next morning, I found Booth. Booth seemed to always be on my side, but he always hesitated whenever it came to matters involving Marcus."Booth, I need your help," I said straightforwardly.Booth nodded. "What's the matter?""Zora, her behavior is not right. I need to investigate her background and her true motives," I said without hesitation.Booth raised an eyebrow, a glint of interest flashing in his eyes. "Oh? What did you discover?""She said she saved Marcus when they were kids, but the details
Roberta POVEvelyn talked non-stop about Marcus. Booth and I followed her into a café, and unconsciously, the morning passed. For me, except for clearly knowing that she was hostile to me, it can be said that there was no gain.Rather than saying that Evelyn was the one who saved Marcus at that time, it's better to say that she was just a fanatical admirer of Marcus. I thought this in my heart and took another sip of coffee somewhat speechlessly.Seemingly noticing my movement, Evelyn said, as if intentionally or unintentionally, "Booth, you know, right? Originally, it was me who was going to be paired with Marcus as a mate."Upon hearing this, Booth's movement in his hand paused, and then he smiled and said, "That was a long time ago. Besides, weren't you just joking?""I wasn't!" Evelyn seemed to be poked at a sore spot, and her voice raised a level sharply, "I was always serious!"I was startled by her tone and looked at her in surprise. Just then, a woman dressed very ordinarily w
Roberta POVAfter the meeting with Zora that time, I truly realized her ambition.I originally thought that she just wanted to use the identity of Marcus' savior to facilitate her becoming the Luna of this tribe. This could also explain why she has always been hostile to me. But now it seems that she wants more than just that, or rather, the person behind her wants more than that.The flaws in the story she told have completely exposed her. But when she casually mentioned the upcoming ceremony, I vaguely sensed something amiss.The ceremony they want to hold is not an ordinary werewolf sacrifice at all, but a terrifying ritual that sacrifices an entire werewolf tribe. This is a long-lost ritual, and once discovered, it will be regarded as an act of betrayal against the entire werewolf society.After returning, I hesitated again and again, but still chose to tell Booth what I heard.Booth listened to me, and his expression grew increasingly grave. "What is their goal?""To control our
Marcus POV"Marcus, what are you thinking about?" Roberta's voice rang out beside my ear, carrying a hint of worry.I looked up at her, those eyes that once made me hate but now were filled with complicated emotions. "Nothing. Just thinking about what to do next."The campfire danced in the night wind, reflecting the anxiety and unease on each of our faces. This was the first time we had met in so many days. I hadn't been able to establish a link with Dixon for a long time, and my power was gradually weakening. I sat beside the campfire, the wine in my cup already gone, but I wasn't the slightest bit drunk. The flame of revenge had burned in my heart for years, but now it was gradually extinguishing because of her insistence.She nodded slightly and sat beside me. "I'm also thinking about exactly what we have to face."I took a deep breath, trying to suppress the wavering in my heart. For years, I had firmly believed that revenge was my only goal. However, now I have begun to doubt wh
Roberta POVThe night had shrouded the entire tribe, with only a faint moonlight filtering through the thick canopy and sprinkling on the ground. I stepped forward gently, feeling the tranquility and serenity around me. Since the entire pack began to prepare for battle, this was my daily patrol route, and every step seemed to blend with this land. However, there was an unusual smell in the air tonight, which made me heighten my vigilance.During the patrol, I accidentally caught a familiar scent - it was Zora's. She had been missing for several days, and people in the tribe were all worried about her safety. I followed the direction of the scent, moving forward quickly and silently, with a vague sense of foreboding in my heart.Through the thick forest, I came to a hidden clearing. The moonlight shone in the center of the clearing, and I saw a terrifying scene: Zora and her brother were commanding a team. These people looked well-equipped and were clearly not ordinary hunters or guard
Roberta POVLate at night, I was lying in bed, immersed between half-asleep and half-awake. In a haze, I turned into a child, and was being chased by a gang of rogues.Intuition told me that this wasn't my dream. Whose dream was it?There was a strange wolf spirit closely following me. A voice rang out right beside my ear: "Marcus! Run!"Marcus? Why did I become Marcus?I kept running. My legs almost weakened due to the roaring and shrieking sounds passing by my ears, but I had to force myself to keep running. Until I found an abandoned place and managed to evade the pursuit by taking advantage of my small size. Just then, a soft voice rang out beside my ear. This voice was extremely familiar to me, but I couldn't recall who that person was exactly."Come here quickly!" The voice said urgently. From that side, a child's arm reached out, and there was actually a thin crescent moon on the wrist. I was just about to reach out my hand to hold the other person's when I suddenly woke up.I
Roberta POVThe next morning, the weather was overcast and I woke up feeling a strange sense of unease. Every cell in my body seemed to be being ripped apart by an invisible force, making it difficult for me to concentrate. I struggled to get out of bed and decided to go to the hospital for a check-up.In the hospital, doctors were bustling about the corridors, and the groans of the patients and the anxious voices of their families intertwined to form a depressing scene. I sat in the waiting room, looking out at the gray sky outside, filled with unease.Finally, it was my turn. I walked into the doctor's office. The doctor was a middle-aged woman who wore thick glasses and looked serious and professional. She asked me, "Roberta, have you been feeling unwell lately?" I nodded and told her my symptoms.She began to examine me carefully and asked about my lifestyle and diet. Then, she told me a shocking news: "Roberta, your body is not in good shape. It seems that your wolf's power canno
Roberta POV"Why are you all here?" I tried to keep my voice calm, but inside I was filled with no confusion and unease.It must be for the blood.Marcus looked up at me with a hint of reproach in his eyes, "Roberta, how come you're back so late tonight? We were all worried sick."I frowned and tried to explain, "I went to the hospital for a checkup, and I wasn't feeling well.""A checkup?" Marcus furrowed his brow, "What's wrong with you? Did something happen?"I took a deep breath and was about to tell them about the decline in my wolf powers when Zora gently tugged on Marcus's hand, interrupting our conversation, "Marcus, don't blame Roberta. She must be going through a tough time too."Marcus looked at Zora, a hint of tenderness in his eyes, "Zora, I know you're being nice to her, but she should consider us too."I stood there, watching the two of them interact, feeling a strange sense of loss. I felt like an outsider, excluded from their conversation."What are you two talking ab
