Evander's already stern face turned even colder when he heard Charles's question. He looked up with a dark expression, not understanding why Charles was asking him that.“What do you mean by asking me that?” Evander squinted his eyes with displeasure.Charles shrugged indifferently, unfazed by the hatred emanating from Evander. “I'm just curious about your relationship. I see that you two seem close,” Charles replied.Evander, who was sitting down to prepare the bonfire, stood up, intending to warn Charles that he and Poppy had a very close relationship.However, at that moment, Poppy and the others arrived from the back of the yard, carrying the ingredients they would use to make dinner that night.“Are you done with the fir

“Oh, no! Where is that woman?!” Poppy blinked several times when she realized she was quite far from the streets of the economic district.Poppy turned to Charles, unconsciously grabbing his hand. This time, it was Charles' turn to fall silent as he stared at Poppy, who was holding his hand.“I don't know...” Charles' voice was soft, sounding unfocused.As Poppy looked around in confusion, she heard hurried footsteps in the distance.The slender figure of a woman came into view, her breath filling the air.However, Poppy recognized the woman, so she hurriedly walked towards her.“Thank God you're still here,” said Poppy, finally able to breathe a sigh of relief when she saw the yo

“Just admit that you're afraid your crimes will be exposed?” Poppy sneered at Edwin, flashing him a condescending smile.Edwin's face flushed red when he realized Poppy was mocking him like that. Unconsciously, Edwin's ego was hurt because Poppy's words made his mind chaotic, and he couldn't keep his face straight to play his role.“Damn you! You should be grateful that I let you go. This time, I won't just stand by and do nothing.” The veins on Edwin's face began to show; his eyes were glaring at Poppy.Poppy smirked silently when she saw Edwin's reaction. This would make it easier for her to prove Edwin's actions to Robert.“What are you trying to do, Edwin?” Robert's voice sounded displeased as he reprimanded Edwin, who was about to lunge at Poppy in anger.

The girl kept urging Poppy to flee immediately before the guards arrived. “Please go, I can't let anyone else get into trouble because of me,” the girl said, almost begging Poppy.Poppy gently patted the girl's arm, which was still holding hers, trying to calm the girl who looked very anxious.“Calm down, I'm not doing this just for you. Bastards like him need to be taught a lesson so they'll learn their lesson,” Poppy replied with a warm smile.“But—”"Stop trying to be a hero, bitch. I won't let you go if you don't leave quickly," said Edwin with a chuckle, a perfect smirk on his lips.Poppy clicked her tongue, completely disgusted by Edwin's repulsive behavior. She would not let a bastard like him get away with it. She wou

One of the women waiting for Poppy's response began banging on the kiosk table and glaring at Poppy as she said, “What exactly is it? Tell us the truth!”Poppy, who looked hesitant, unconsciously swallowed hard when she heard the woman's loud voice.“Actually, I just returned to base and the natural disaster did indeed happen. That's why I was very interested in your previous conversation.” Poppy said with a slight grimace, intending to quickly pay for her items and leave.However, Poppy did not expect the women's reaction to be what she had thought it would be. Their faces, which had looked stern, began to soften, and they even looked surprised.“Did you experience it yourself?”Poppy nodded slowly.

“It feels so lonely going alone like this,” Poppy muttered as she walked down the street toward the economic district.Poppy noticed that the streets felt busier than yesterday when she had just returned to base. It seemed like more people had returned to base today.There were many survivors passing by on the streets, and Poppy could see that some of them were injured and needed medicine to treat their wounds.“Looks like I should buy some medicine for my next trip too,” Poppy muttered softly.When Poppy set foot in the economic district, she saw many stalls lined up there. Poppy was grateful she had decided to go shopping today; she was sure it was the right time to collect good items.Poppy was sure that the people who had

Roxanne’s POVI woke up in the middle of the forest, and at that moment, I realized this was my dream. Since I had grown used to strange nightmares, I was no longer surprised when I woke up in unusual places like this.The sound of footsteps echoed in the distance. I turned around, but all I could see was mist, so I slowly walked closer to it.“Where exactly is this?” I whispered softly, seeing nothing of significance here.Suddenly, a gust of wind slapped against my face, forcing me to stumble three steps back.Moments later, shadows of people appeared, chasing one another. Their figures ran right through my body as if I were nothing more than a transparent ghost.My eyes widened in shock when I recog

Roxanne’s POVBecause of Alpha Theodore’s previous order, I had to stay in the pack house for the next week. At first, Alpha Theodore didn’t allow me to leave my room and told me to rest inside.Since I grew too bored being confined there, I often sneaked out. Eventually, Alpha relented and permitted me to spend some time outside of my room.“Xena, why have I been having nightmares more often lately? Do you know anything?” I asked as I lounged on the sofa near the window, gazing out at the flower garden.‘Don’t you usually have nightmares anyway?’ Xena furrowed her brows, confused.“Yes, I do. But this time… it feels different.”My eyes drifted to the bri

Roxanne POVAt first, everything went smoothly, until suddenly a vision pierced into my head. It felt as if I was being pulled into the future.Destruction, that was all I saw. As far as my eyes could reach, there was nothing but blazing fire, devouring everything in its path.Piercing cries echoed, the faint howls of wolves mixing with the roar of the flames that swallowed everything before them. My breath hitched at the sight.The vision only lasted for a few seconds, but my body swayed weakly as I realized what I had just seen.“Roxanne? What’s happening to you?”I heard Theodore’s deep voice at my side, and only then did I realize that my body was already being held up by Alpha Theodore.

Roxanne’s POVHonestly, I was pretty nervous about attending tonight’s event, especially since it was explicitly held to welcome me into this pack. Additionally, I had no idea what would actually happen there.Even though I knew Theodore needed my blood so I could officially join, I had never done anything like this before, and that made me anxious.I twisted the hem of the dress I was wearing, hoping it would ease the nerves fluttering inside me.At last, I heard the sound of a car pulling up outside, and my heart began to pound harder with each beat. Xena, who clearly sensed my nervousness, spoke softly to calm me.‘Roxanne, relax. I’m here with you, so you don’t need to worry.’ Xena whispered gently, soothing my restless heart.“Huff… Please, let me get through tonight.” I closed my eyes, praying silently to the Moon Goddess that nothing bad would happen this evening.Then came the sound of knocking at my door. Slowly, I opened my eyes, exhaled a shaky breath, and rose to my feet.

Roxanne’s POVWhen I went jogging this morning and the sunlight began to shine brightly, I realized that the Gold Dream Pack was truly located right in the middle of the human city. The pack looked so vast, with rows of houses stretching along every block.The cool morning breeze calmed me, easing the weight of the nightmare that had kept me awake last night. Even so, I couldn’t just forget that dream.“I hope it was just a dream,” I murmured, trying to be optimistic, then continued my steps, eager to explore this pack.Along one of the streets, I noticed a café displaying a sign that they were hiring. I realized that I couldn’t rely on Theodore forever. Like it or not, I had to start rebuilding my life.I glanced at the café’s name, trying to memorize it. It looked stylish, a place perfect for young people to gather. Since it was only six in the morning, they weren’t open yet.“Maybe I should come back here later this afternoon. Hopefully, they’ll accept me.” Currently, my top priori

Roxanne POVIt took us about six hours to finally reach Theodore’s pack. I had fallen asleep since it was already late, but then I felt someone touching me, and it instantly jolted me awake.My breath came in short gasps, and I quickly pulled myself back, feeling deeply uncomfortable at the sensation of someone’s hand on me.But when I looked up, I realized it was Theodore. He had only meant to wake me because we had arrived.“Sorry, I didn’t mean to startle you. We’re here,” Theodore said as he pulled his hand away from me.I immediately turned toward the car window, and sure enough, we were already in front of a grand house that looked like a luxurious mansion. Because it was night, what caught my attention most was the warm glow of lights around the place.Still half-dazed from waking, I didn’t pay much attention to the details surrounding the mansion. What I did notice was the sound of the cold night wind whistling fiercely through the air.Somehow, I suddenly felt awkward around
