#Chapter31ADELIAThere were things that transcend beauty.The laughter of an innocent child, a dream that was realized.A great love that was fulfilled.These were the things that everyone sought after, but not everyone could reach.And when you gave up everything to attain it, but it was still beyond your reach, a certain feeling would reside in your chest. That was, the feeling of being incomplete.I blinked at the crowd surrounding me. All of them were tough and strong, the cream of the crop of the Pack of Emoresi, one of the greatest packs in the werewolf world. It has been years, and I already became accustomed to their presence, and their blatant disregard towards me. It’s alright,' I thought to myself. 'At least now, they are just disregarding me and are not actively hostile to me anymore.''Regardless, everything is not important… as long as I can be with him,' I convinced myself before sighing."Please move to the side," at that moment, I heard a stern voice say.

Chapter32

#Chapter32LEWIS“Alpha, elders from the Silverwood Pack are begging for an audience-“I lifted a hand to stop Simon, my gamma, from talking.‘Be quiet,’ I said through a mind-link. Simon, who was at the receiving end of my statement, visibly flinched as if he just received a huge surprise.I lifted a brow at him but did not call his rude behavior. I could not blame him. Afterall, in my pack, it is a well-known matter that I hated being connected to another through a mind-link. And unless absolutely necessary, I would never converse to another in this way.‘However right now, it’s necessary,’ I thought as I looked at Lia’s peaceful sleeping face. It had been a few hours, yet she was still sleeping so deeply.“Uhm… alpha…” Simon said very softly. “Those elders… they are begging on their knees and are causing a ruckus…”“Toss them towards the royal family. If they still refuse, throw them to the dungeons. Tell them I’ll kill them and feed their flesh to the crows if they start ca

Chapter33

#Chapter33LEWIS "You were just so energetic, but now you sleep like a log again," I softly mumbled as I stared at the small figure on my bed. Lia, who was just blushing profusely and denying my ambiguous statement earlier, fell asleep the moment I laid her on the bed. I knew that she was exhausted. However, the speed when she dozed off, just after sleeping for hours, was quite not normal. I sat at the side of the bed and observed her peaceful face. At that moment, Lia looked relaxed, which was opposite to her heartbroken expression earlier. I reached out and softly traced her face with a finger. “You have no injury in your body, and you must have replenished your energy already,” I stated. “Still, you sleep so deeply as if you just ran a few hundred kilometers marathon.” After my statement, I observed Lia for a few more minutes before softly sighing and saying, “I have to make sure you are okay.”Suddenly, my irises which are usually dark flicker before turning into a li

Chapter34

#Chapter34ADELIAChirping birds at the window stirred me up from my slumber. My eyelashes fluttered before I slowly opened my eyes and slowly woke up. After a few deep breaths, I realized that my body felt comfortable and energized.“How long have I been sleeping?” I murmured on the sheets.‘The last thing I remembered, I fell asleep in the car and used Lewis’ thighs as my pillow. Then, he teased me before carrying me up and bringing me to be,’ I thought to myself.‘So… I ended up falling back to sleep…’I lowered my eyes and stared at the king size bed. It was the same room that I slept on the first night that I stayed here – the room where the Symbol of Talascar could be found. Even without thinking about it, it was obvious that the room belonged to Lewis. I licked my dry lower lip before sitting up. “So pretty,” I could not help but comment as I saw the single rose placed on top of the bedside table.“I keep on using his room. I wonder where he slept for the last two nigh

#Chapter35ADELIA“Okay,” Lewis started to say. “You were looking scared when I saw you earlier. Please tell me. What’s wrong?” He asked me, effectively making me recall the anxiousness that I earlier felt. And in my mind, I saw the images of my visions I previously saw.Lewis gave me a deep and concerned look before sitting beside me. Then, he called my name, “Lia.”“You can tell me. We are a team now, aren’t we?”“Ah,” I softly exclaimed.I blinked at him. ‘Could it be… he wants me to tell him about my worries?’ I thought to myself.While it is true that we are in the same team and I am under Lewis’ protection, I should not bother him with my useless anxieties – that was what I thought.Through the years, I have learned to keep everything to myself. Even in my visions, there was never a time when I told Alec my troubles, because these things were something that I had to deal with myself.‘He… is really so different from Alec,’ I could not help but think as I looked at his cl

Chapter36

#Chapter36LEWIS“Block all the roads. No one is allowed to cross the borders.”Roughly an hour after my conversation with Lia, I was sitting in the middle of my study with most of the high-ranking werewolves in the pack was gathered.“I am deploying everyone, including those who are on vacation. Block all entry and exit to the royal castle. Don’t let a single fly go out,” I ordered in a stern voice.It was a highly treasonous statement that would surely send a werewolf to the dungeon. Despite this, everyone in the room calmly accepted my order.“Yes, alpha,” without hesitation, they simultaneously declared.I put my elbow on top of the table and placed my chin on my palm. “Any question?” I asked them.My question was like a trigger that set everyone excited. In just a snap of a finger, their serious faces turned eager and passionate.“Alpha,” it was Simon who spoke first. I nodded at him, allowing him to speak.“Alpha, do we need to send warriors to the royal castle too?” He

Chapter37

#Chapter37LEWISThere is a saying that I often dismissed. It says, karma comes after everyone eventually. That saying could only affect the weak ones - or so I thought. I have the power to overcome anything including karma - or so I believed. But when I looked at the little woman with flushed cheeks who was standing next to me, I knew that karma already came knocking at my door. 'Damn it,' I secretly swore as I tried to maintain an innocent look on my face. At that moment, Lia's blushing cheeks were more noticeable than usual. She was wearing a casual white t-shirt that fits her small frame nicely, and a pair of fitted jeans that showed off her gorgeously shaped legs. Her still wet hair was casually falling on her shoulders and she smelled like my shampoo. Her own fragrance mingled with the scent of my shampoo was enough to drive my wolf mad. Lia sent me a small, shy smile and my body suddenly heated up, and a reaction started to appear on my lower belly. I closed my eye

Chapter38

#Chapter38ADELIA My eyes fluttered open and saw the familiar part of the great forest. It has been a few hours since we left the Pack of Talascar, and looking outside, it seemed that we were already near the territory of Emoresi.I squinted my eyes before letting out a small yawn. All I could remember was getting inside the car with Lewis. I did not realize I fell asleep, and for a few hours at that. Thinking about this made my face turn warmer, especially when I stole a glance at the driver’s seat.To my surprise, it was a young woman with flaming red hair who was driving the car. My eyes widened because before I fell asleep, it was Lewis who was driving the car.“Are you awake?” Suddenly, I heard someone say from above me. Hurriedly, I lifted out my chin to see Lewis’ face a few inches from mine. My eyes widened even more as my cheeks flushed red.“Ah,” I softly mumbled before pulling my face away and breathing deeply to calm my erratically beating heart. However, it was not

Chapter39

#Chapter39ADELIAI have a small and humble house in the outskirts of the town. One could say that it was one of the worst locations in the territory. However, it was also the cheapest and the only place I could afford with my salary at the flower shop in the nearest human town.Although it was not much, for me, it was my home, my safe place that I go home to everyday. To see it in a state of shamble... it was shocking and hurting. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. 'Why would they do this?' I thought to myself. 'It's only been two days since I was gone... why would they destroy my home?'I opened my eyes and once again saw my devastated house. The door and windows were all broken. My personal things were smashed and crushed, and my small selection of clothing were torn apart. 'Was it father? Before he attended the gathering, he came here and broke my table already,' I thought. Inside my chest, I felt something being squeezed. Suddenly, I felt an arm wrappe

Chapter40

#Chapter40LEWIS I was called the cruel alpha because of one reason, and that was my belief that if you were my enemy, then it would not matter who you are.You would still experience a fate worse than death.For years, I have lived by that thought. And whenever someone slighted me, I would not hesitate to retaliate and bring hell to him.I never thought that there would come a time when I would clench my fists to stop myself from attacking. However, I did not regret it, because in my heart I knew that it was the right choice.After all, everything else goes after her, and my immediate priority is to look after her well-being.‘Is she feeling any better?’ I thought as I looked at Lia. It was a couple of minutes after that bastard came and invited us to his villa.I did not have the slightest interest in coming over to his estate and had a strong idea of rejecting his offer. However, that strong idea instantly crumbled when I felt the tiny tug on the hem of my shirt.‘That was
