CHAPTER 111~3RD PERSON’S POV~“P-Pardon? She’s your daughter. I’ve never heard of her before,” Mary said, staring at Gabriella as the warrior wolves brought her into the building.“Oh, don’t get me wrong. She’s the daughter of a close friend, but she’s like a daughter to me. I brought her here with me to get her some nice clothes too,” Anaya said, then giggled after. Mary stared at her for a moment, then turned back to Gabriella. “She’s gorgeous,” she said softly.“Hi, sorry about that. The crowd wouldn’t let me get through,” Gabriella said, struggling to walk toward them.“What’s wrong with your legs?” Mary asked.“Oh, it’s this dress. I feel like my legs are tied together, so it’s really hard to move,” Gabriella answered.“Don’t worry, you’ll get used to it, because this is the kind of dress you’ll be wearing henceforth. No more servant clothes and dirty chores for you; from now on, you get to experience what it’s like to be one of the higher-ups,” Anaya said with a smile, patting

CHAPTER 113~3RD PERSON’S POV~“Lady Annaya, I haven’t seen Gabriella all day; has she left?” Edith asked as she walked into Lady Anaya’s room. She was holding a basket and came to pick up some dirty clothes from her room.As she walked toward the wardrobe, Lady Anaya, who was sitting before her mirror, answered, “Gabriella didn’t leave; she left really early so she could make it to Alpha Derren’s pack."“She went to Alpha Derren’s pack? What for?” Edith asked, turning to Anaya.“She didn’t tell me. All she said was that seeing him is really important, and she will only tell me her reasons after she returns,” Anaya said as her lips curled into a knowing smirk.“That look on your face,” Edith said. She turned back to the wardrobe and continued, “You were expecting this, weren’t you?”“No, no. I wasn’t expecting her to go to Alpha Derren’s pack; in fact, I don’t know what she has gone to do there. But I was expecting her to do something that would confirm my suspicions, and if her reaso

CHAPTER 115~3RD PERSONS POV~~DARK MOON PACK~“My lord, I didn’t want to ask this before, but why did you ask me to go make sure that old man was still alive? He’s committed heinous atrocities, and it’s been years since we kept him down there. Isn’t it for the best if he just ends up dying?” Gregory asked. He sat on the other side of Steven’s desk inside his office. Steven leaned forward, locked his fingers together, and rested his elbows on the table. “What do you think my reasons are?” Steven asked, staring directly into Gregory’s eyes. He carried a blank, emotionless expression on his face; it seemed the happiness he had in his eyes before Gabriella left was completely gone.“Well, I don’t know; that’s why I’m asking,” Gregory replied.“Of course you don’t. A while ago, I got information that Alpha Derren killed the rouge king and put an end to the rogues forever,” Steven said.“But that’s impossible; the rogue king is in our custody; he’s been here for years,” Gregory said with s

CHAPTER 117~3RD PERSON’S POV~“Hey Edith, how long do official council celebrations take?” Gabriella asked, staring at the full moon through a large glass window in the building.“Well, they usually take quite a while, but Lady Anaya doesn’t stay through. She usually leaves about two hours in so she can come back home to rest for the next day.” Edith, who was standing behind Gabriella, replied.Gabriella let out a sigh and turned to a large clock in the passageway. “She’s already been gone for over an hour; if she takes too long, I’m going out to find her,” she said.“But you can’t do that, Miss Gabriella; you don’t even know the address where the celebration is being held, and Alpha Derren won’t even let you leave,” Edith said.“But something bad could happen at that celebration. She said it herself that the party is rigged,” Gabriella argued, turning to face Edith.“I know you’re worried about your mother, dear, but Anaya is far stronger than you might think. She’s faced really dau

CHAPTER 119~3RD PERSON’S POV~“My lord, we managed to sneak these two out of the Montgomery mansion. We’re not sure if they’re the ones, but they resembled Miss Gabriella’s description the most,” one warrior wolf among three said. They were the ones who were sent to kidnap Gabriella’s friends.“Gabriella? Is she here? Was she the one who sent you guys?” one of the females asked. Both had black bags over their heads, and their hands were tied behind their backs.Gabriella stepped out of the mansion a few minutes later and walked through the gardens until she made it to where Derren sat. She saw the two girls on their knees, and Derren sat in front of them with his legs crossed, holding a glass of orange juice in his right hand.“Who are these?” Gabriella asked.“Gabriella? Is that you? Please tell these large men not to kill us; we haven’t done anything wrong." One of them spoke again, trying to break free from the ropes.“Marian? Lily?” Gabriella exclaimed in shock. She rushed toward
