SELENAIt had been two days since I had been taking care of Alpha Severin, but there had been no movement so far. I looked at the serene, handsome face, which held a rarely seen quietness, and my heart ached terribly. I wiped his forehead gently. "You have to wake up soon," I mumbled with a sigh. "Everyone is waiting for you to wake up, Alpha Severin," I whispered as I wiped his neck down to his chest. But he did not move. Even after he'd been treated for so many days, he still hadn't shown much recovery aside from his temperature, which had returned to normal last night. I bit my lower lip as I stood up with the bowl of water in hand. I was done wiping for the evening. "I will quickly pour this away and return, okay?" I said with a smile on my face. This was something I'd gotten used to after being with him for two days. I did almost everything in the room except taking a bath and talking to the unconscious Alpha Severin was the only thing that kept me sane. The guilt would

SELENAHealer Stephanie closed her eyes and slowly shook her head. She seemed exhausted. She'd been doing her best to treat Alpha Severin for more than an hour anyway. "I can't say." She mumbled. "But he's the only one who can do it." She said. Hearing her, my eyes twitched. Healer Stephanie opened her eyes and continued. "If any of us here should go there. We would probably die before entering. Alpha Raviel's berserk aura is enough to kill everyone here." She explained. I bit my lower lip and tightened the blanket around my body. My legs were soft from being on the ground for so long. My breathing was slightly heavy, too. I staggered toward the bed and sat down beside Alpha Severin. "What happened to Alpha Raviel? What made him that way?" What I saw in that room made of plants wasn't something that could have been expected from someone like Alpha Raviel, who was known to be strong and indifferent. What happened?"He is cursed." Nick mumbled. I frowned subtly. "Cursed? Wha

SELENA I watched in a daze as Alpha Severin was treated with great focus by Healer Stephanie, who had lost her usual casualness. The room was silent with only the sound of my heavy breathing being heard. My thoughts were lost. My forehead was covered with cold sweat. Everyone was tense. Healer Stephanie had been treating him for more than an hour already, but there was no response. My heart couldn't help but ache terribly. Healer Stephanie was the most powerful healer in the castle. Even if she could not heal Alpha Severin, then who could?The thought scared me. Alpha Severin mustn't die. He really must not die. "Has he healed anyone recently?" Healer Stephanie's cold voice rang in the room. We all shared a glance, and my heart thumped. Healed someone?He... did. He healed me. My lips trembled as I sat straight on the ground and tried to speak. Healer Stephanie's eyes fell on me. "He healed you?" She asked with disbelief in her voice. I nodded, shaking my head with tea

SELENAI watched as Alpha Severin ran far away from the secret place. The intermittent growl that followed us made my nerves tense, but my arms tightened around Alpha Severin's neck even more. He was injured. He was bleeding, but his arms never left me for a moment. Maybe he would have been safe if he hadn't taken me from Alpha Raviel. No, I was certain he could even escape with only a few injuries at most if he hadn't frantically protected me from getting injured at all. He did everything for me...Being protected... for some reason, the feeling felt right. Having been the one protecting others for years. Hiding my sister behind my back to make sure no wind took her off, it felt really nice to have someone protect me this way. Someone who could disregard himself to make sure I was safe...I closed my eyes and rested my head on his chest, feeling the power in his legs as he ran further away. The growling finally stopped, but Alpha Severin continued running. Opening my eyes, I

SELENAI gasped and fell backward, hitting the wet ground for the second time, and the golden wolf approached wildly. My eyes closed in fright, panic, and disbelief played across my face as I tried to move backward. But the wolf was on me. Alpha Raviel had pounced on me, and right now, his claws were beside me, trapping me in the middle. His red eyes glowed with danger as they settled on me. He gnarled. "Don't touch me..." I blurted out with fear in my voice. He shook his head. His red eyes flickered for a moment, but the sound of something tearing apart broke the silence. My eyes widened. It was my gown that tore. The cold breeze hit my body in waves, and I shivered along. "You..." I wanted to scream. I really wanted to curse, but opening my mouth, nothing came out aside from the anger and fear that clashed within me. Alpha Raviel took in my almost naked body, and he growled again. His body trembled violently, and the next moment, he flew away. His body hit the largest t

SELENAHearing the painful and powerful growl, I should have turned tail. Honestly, my body was shivering violently. Every pulse in my body screamed for me to escape. My instinct tensed, convincing me to turn around and run... but my legs moved before my mind did. Before I could comprehend what was going on, I found myself stepping closer toward the direction the growl came from. My teeth chattered, and fear and nervousness took over my rationality. The blood on my face was lost. But I couldn't stop my steps. With each breath, the pressure in the air intensified, and so was the fear of death. No, this couldn't be happening again. I couldn't afford to lose control over my body again. Why? Why was this happening to me frequently these days?Could it be the moon goddess didn't want me to reclaim my identity? Was that why she kept throwing me into danger?Tears rolled down my face as I shook my head. I grabbed the branch of a closer tree, trying to force myself to a stop, but with

Scarlet had no idea how she slept last night, but she woke up with her hands on her belly. She looked around the room, searching for Cyn, but he was nowhere to be found, and her heart thumped. She sat up in bed and tried to climb down to look for Cyn. However, fateball suddenly appeared beside her, flapping its small wings. "Scarlet, Scarlet." It shouted, golden bubbles flowing out of its round mouth. Scarlet dodged to the side, avoiding the strange golden bubbles, and a disgusted expression was shown on her face. "Why are you screaming so early in the morning?" She asked. Fateball grinned and let out even more bubbles, which she intentionally made hit Scarlet's face. "Klaus... He's ruined." It was announced happily. Scarlet, who was still about to insult Fateball, had her words swallowed as she looked with bewilderment in her eyes. "What happened to him?" "He drank too much last night and got hit by a car. Do you want to watch it? I made a video of it." It had followed Klaus i

Klaus thought this wasn't real. He thought Scarlet would change her mind until he was dragged to the wedding by his friend, Ryan, who had been bribed by Scarlet. He watched from the side, his face haggard as his eyes followed Scarlet, who was being kissed by Cyn at the altar. Klaus shook his head. "This is impossible. This is impossible!" He screamed, attracting everyone's attention as he acted crazily. Ryan stepped aside, avoiding him. Klaus grabbed a man at the side and pointed to Scarlet, "She used to love me so much. She chased after me for so many years. How could she leave like this?" Klaus couldn't believe it was so painful. Watching Scarlet leave him to be happy with someone else... He felt his heart being torn from the inside out. He had always thought Scarlet would be there whenever he turned his head. He thought Scarlet would never love anyone else except him. Even when he was caught with Lyn in the music room, even when Lyn told him Scarlet no longer loved him, he s

Scarlet's mother had her eyes wide open. She couldn't believe what she heard. She looked at her daughter and shook her head. Maybe she heard wrong... "Baby, what did you say?" She asked with a forced smile. Scarlet opened her eyes. Her whole being was nervous as she tried not to look at her mother. The shadow of the past haunted her. What her original parents could have done to her at this moment kept playing in her head, and she paled. "I... I have someone I like and I want to marry him." She stuttered out. She knew she had no choice now. She already gave Cyn her word, and she wouldn't go back on it. Scarlet had her head lowered as she waited for her mother's reply. After a while, she heard the mother's cough. "I will talk to your father about this. But we need to see the guy first." The mother said. Scarlet was stunned. Her lips parted in a low gasp, and she looked on in disbelief. Looking at her mother again, she realized the woman still had a smile on her face and not a h

Scarlet woke up the next morning and found Cyn preparing the table at the center of the room. The breakfast seemed to have been served as the room was filled with a delicious aroma that washed off the lingering fatigue in Scarlet's bones. She forced her body up from the bed and dragged her feet toward the table. She didn't spare Cyn a glance as she rubbed her sore waist while she tried to sit without affecting her painful lower body. Cyn looked on. A helpless smile on his face as he watched Scarlet pick up her spoon to eat. He knew he'd gone too far last night. Maybe it was because of the rain, but he found it hard to control himself and could only stop when he realized Scarlet could no longer take it. Cyn's lips pressed into a thin line. This wasn't right...He couldn't be taking Scarlet without doing the proper thing. He wasn't taught that way.Cyn sat before Scarlet and served her food. "Scarlet, can I see your parents?" He asked eagerly. He'd never been so eager to do som

Cyn led Scarlet to the bed to rest. The rain had been falling for an hour already and while he might not have minded to sleep in the VIP room for the night, he didn't think it was proper to stay in a confined space with a woman. But for some reason, he didn't feel irritated. One of the things that confused him since he met Scarlet. He always wondered why Scarlet was different from other women. No lady had affected him the way Scarlet did... It was strange. But Cyn wasn't allowed to think too much as the rain poured more heavily. Scarlet was starting to shiver. Her brows knitted as she hugged her school uniform close to her skin. 'Fateball, why are my shivering so much? I used to love cold so much.' Scarlet felt like crying. She had never been scared of cold and instead hated heat with passion, but at the moment, she was shivering so much that her teeth were chattering. Fateball floated beside her. "This is not your body. The original host was born in winter, and her body has

Scarlet didn't expect Cyn to propose taking her out. With his indifferent attitude and awkwardness, she thought she would be the most forward in their relationship. She looked at the handsome figure before her, and a smile slowly formed on her lips. "Okay." She replied, took his hand, and walked away. She ignored the man whose eyes had turned bloodshot as he glared at their backs. Klaus couldn't believe someone would suddenly appear to snatch Scarlet away from him. When he saw Scarlet grab Cyn's hand and even smile so brightly at Cyn, he felt his heart plummet. He couldn't accept this. He was unwilling. He ran to his desk, picked up his bag, and ran out of the class. Scarlet, who was thinking about how to win the affection of Cyn, had no thoughts about Klaus. She barely even remembered he existed. She raised her head to look at Cyn, and she blinked. Her big bright eyes shone brilliantly under the evening light. "Where are we going?" She asked softly. Her voice was tender.

RAVINEI slumped on the ground in my father's office. Staring at the calm man who was working away on his laptop like nothing was wrong, I couldn't help but feel nauseous. I'd always known he was wicked. Someone who could kill his wife because of properties, how holy could he be?But I'd never thought he was such a monster. My mother was in a pool of blood. Her skin was torn and slashed. She looked like she was on her last breath, but his beatings never stopped. The look in his eyes... He... he was enjoying it. The blood. The muffled scream. The struggling. He seemed to be enjoying it all. "Psycho." I blurted out, crawling backward to escape from him. His fingers moved. He lazily rubbed his brows and looked at me. "Someone," He called. Immediately, the door opened, and a man in a black suit walked in. "Sir." He said with a bow. My father glanced at me. His gaze was emotionless, like I meant nothing to him. He had always given me this look. Since I was little, I'd gotten used

DANTEI stared at the pictures strewn across my table. My expression remained unreadable. As expected of my child. She knew how to pick her games and win them. This time, she won thoroughly. "You said this was sent by Calista, right?" I asked the butler, standing at the entrance of my study. He nodded, fear palpable in his eyes as he bowed his head. "Yes, master. The eldest miss gave this as a gift to Madam on her birthday." He explained. My lips curled in a smile. Brilliant. Of all things she could have sent, she sent this___ something meant to wound without ever showing blood. A gift wrapped in luxury and poison. I rose to my feet. "Call the Madam," I said to the butler, who immediately escaped the room after a deep bow. I returned my attention to the photographs. Yacht. Hotels. Bars. Boutiques. Private pools. Different men. Different nights. Using my money to indulge her lust. I sighed softly. Accepting my daughter's challenge was one thing, but tolerating a cheating

RAVIELNick and I approached the mansion steadily. We entered without anyone knowing, not even the heavy security found out about the intrusion. But it also made me understand that the rat was just as I had predicted. He was a trained person and must have been sent to take Calista down. I just never imagined that he would act so fast. "She really has too many enemies. But I like it." I mumbled as we hid behind a car and silently watched as the rat tried to open Calista's door. Nick glanced at me. "Should I stop him?" He asked. My brows furrowed, and I hesitated. Though I would have loved to see what he wanted from Calista's house, the thought of letting him into Calista's house made me slightly uncomfortable. After a while, I nodded. Nick immediately approached him. He stealthily moved toward the door, but just as he was about to attack the rat, the rat seemed to notice something and dodged

RAVIELI rubbed my forehead weakly as I sat in my car with my eyes closed. The meeting had taken too long. More than I'd have appreciated. Thankfully, we were able to seal the deal. "Is Don leaving tonight?" I asked Nick, who was driving. "Yes. He should leave the country tonight. What do you say? Should we send someone after him?" He asked. My eyes parted, and displeasure rose in my chest. "Why should we do that?" My tone deepened. Nick glanced at me and quickly bowed. "Sorry, boss. I didn't mean it that way." I stared at him for a while, and a low groan escaped my lips. Nick was beginning to lose focus. "When we return, you should go back for training," I muttered and closed my eyes again. "Yes, sir." He replied. I rubbed my temple and crossed my arms. I'd be returning in a while, but... Calista..."Where is Calista?" I asked. "She's in a hotel. The men said she trailed her husband to the Love and Moon Hotel. Do you want to go to her?" Nick asked. My temple pulsed. Tr

CALISTA'S POV "You, what do you know about Selene?" I asked with a racing heart. Selene... I should have forgotten her. I shouldn't have thought about her again, but when I saw the attendant's pale face when she was being taken out by Celine, something clicked in my head, and my heart trembled. It wasn't an illusion. I wasn't imagining things. The attendant... she looked so much like Selene!I hadn't noticed it initially as my thoughts were muddled, but when I saw that face again, the paleness after losing so much blood, what I saw wasn't the attendant but... Selene. The same Selene that haunted my childhood...The same Selene who told me about Severin today. What was their connection?My palms became sweaty as I waited for his reply. Severin seemed to freeze. He stared at me with shock and surprise in his eyes. For a long while, he couldn't say a word. And my he

SEVERIN I couldn't believe what was going on before me. My heart trembled, and guilt formed a knot in my chest. Was this my fault? Had I gone so far that Calista had gone crazy?Seeing the blood pooling up underneath the informant girl, I couldn't help but turn my head away. Knowing that making a call could annoy Calista more. What was more important at the moment was to appease Calista even though I had no idea how she followed me here. "Clean your hands with this." I handed a wipe to her with a fawning smile on my face. God knew I had never acted this way toward anyone in my life. Not even my old monster of a father could make me feel this way. However, looking at Calista at the moment, my palms sweated. Not from fear but from someone hidden within. Excitement. Calista was always gentle and easygoing. Despite being the daughter of a demon like Dante, she was too cool. Every time, I couldn't help but wonder how she was able to survive for so long. Without a doubt, I knew she

CRYSTAL "What do I want?" Hannah asked. Her face showed anger and viciousness as she glared at me. "You slutty bitch. You took my man from me!" She yelled. A frown settled on my face. I stepped closer to her and slapped her hard across the face. "You..." I slapped her again. "Crystal!"I slapped her for the third time. All eyes were on us at this point, but it didn't matter. I stepped even closer to her, and a smirk formed on my face. "One, I'm not a slutty bitch. Two, I'm Xavier's legal wife." I corrected and poked my forehead rudely. Hannah screamed. She had her hands covering her cheeks as anger and embarrassment clouded her gaze. "What's going on here?" Xavier's voice sounded behind me, and he took my hand, pulling me to stand beside him. He lowered his head and glanced at my two hands. Distress showed on his handsome face as his lips pursed. "Why would you use your hand to slap her?" He asked. He brought out a wipe and started wiping my hand. "You should have used a

CRYSTAL I slept weakly in bed. My body burned, and breathing was difficult. My lips parted, exhaling and inhaling as my nose seemed blocked. Xavier wiped my face, his expression gentle and concerned as he stared at me. "You still don't want a doctor? Your temperature is getting higher." He said in a low voice. I shook my head lightly, but the throbbing headache that came with the movement made me wince in pain. Closing my eyes, I bit my lower lip and sighed deeply. "I'm fine." My voice was broken and hoarse. "It's fever. I will be fine after sleeping." I assured him. I didn't want to worry him, but I also did not want to visit the hospital. For some reason, I could feel that this sickness was something that had to do with my mental health rather than mere physical sickness. After going through so much, I guess my brain needed time to adjust to my new life, and even though it had been a week since the whole thing happened, life hadn't been any easier. No, instead, I hadn't ma

CRYSTAL I listened to Lyn's words and shook my head in disbelief. Was Madam Frost my mother?Why didn't the word sound too foreign to me?I closed my eyes to suppress the overwhelming pain in my heart. So, Lyn knew she was my mother, and that was the reason she killed her?Then, why did she kill Austin? Austin wasn't even related to me..."What about Austin?" It was as if Xavier was reading my mind as he asked the question in my mind. I could see his lips trembling as he asked the question. Lyn paused for a moment, and anger flashed across her face. "I thought he was your mother's stepson. I got the wrong information..." She said as if she regretted missing her target. My heart skipped a beat. So, the one she wanted to kill back then was... my eyes flashed at Xavier, and fear gripped my heart. Wait... Xavier wasn't Mrs... my mother's son? For some reason, my heart felt slightly relieved at the thought...But we were still in danger. Xavier looked into my eyes. His eyes were

XAVIER "Who are you?" I asked deeply. "I'm Doe, Crystal's friend. I predict she's in Lyn's house, and that bitch will kill her." The stranger explained. Doe? Wasn't that the girl I investigated when Crystal was in prison?"Lyn?" I asked. I was even more confused. Why would Lyn kill Crystal?Could this be a trap?"Shut the crap, bastard. If anything happened to Crystal, I wouldn't mind grinding your damn skin!" She threatened. My brows creased. "Damn it. I shouldn't have traveled here to meet my old man." She mumbled. It was more like she was speaking to herself. My heart skipped a beat. Could Crystal really be in trouble? I ended the call and dialed Crystal's line, but to my shock, it was unreachable. My head rang loudly, and I immediately rushed out of the house. I drove down to Lyn's house, and after a few minutes of knocking, the door opened, and I entered. But I instantly felt the danger that loomed closely, and I was on alert. Right then, a sharp breeze hit my ears,

CRYSTAL My eyes glazed over, and I shook my head repeatedly when I saw the last picture. I couldn't believe it. I really didn't want to believe it. Lyn putting something into a dish in the Frost mansion...I immediately ended the document and dialed Doe's line. She answered at the first ring. "Babe, did you see everything? I should have made you come over, but I'm scared you will run off." Doe mumbled over the phone. My lips pressed into a thin line. "The information... are they real?" I couldn't help but question. They shouldn't be real... right?Lyn wouldn't betray me so much. She really wouldn't. Doe laughed over the phone. Her laughter was cold... It was totally devoid of any emotion. "This information was in the archive in one of my local bases. That Lyn girl gives her work to Coker. The few videos he made for her are in my hands right now. Do you want to see them?" She asked. My heart plummeted. Videos... Videos again. Could the Xavier the man talk about really be

CRYSTAL "Really? You want to see me?" Doe sounded both surprised and excited on the phone. My lips twitched. Had I lost my mind?Why would I want to see her? Why would I even want a psychopath like her around me?But I needed to leave Lyn without rousing her suspicion, and the only way to do that was by giving a plausible excuse. "Let's see at the intersection around that prison?" I asked. "Intersection? Is there any intersection around the prison? Why can't I remember any?"I glanced at Lyn, who had sat down and was pressing her phone with a cautious expression on her face. "Lyn, let's see later in the evening, okay? I need to meet a friend right away." I lied. I didn't mean to. But without finding out what Lyn was up to, I wouldn't feel good staying around her. Lyn nodded. Her expression was as if she didn't want to keep me around... though she tried her best to mask it. I nodded and walked out of her house. After stopping a cab, I covered the speaker of the phone and gave
