Novels by Clover Bless

KairosFenrir—he is my uncle, my father’s younger brother.They were three brothers, all men, which inevitably led to endless conflict among them. Rivalry between siblings was nothing unusual, especially among werewolves, who must constantly prove their strength and superiority.That rivalry, of course, led to bloodshed. What began as a single army split into several factions, and battles broke out within the pack itself.At that time, Fenrir was among the strong ones. My father described him as cunning, and he severed his own tail before the chaos erupted and claimed many lives.He survived by becoming the alpha of his mate’s pack, a small pack in the South, well-known there and growing increasingly fearsome over time.We had little interaction with them, and their envoy came for the first time when my mother passed away.The sound of a great bell rang out as birds flew overhead. The envoy arrived, bringing gifts of condolence—a piece of jewelry my mother had once longed for while sh

IrwenHe looked at me with an expression I didn’t like, as if he had realized my growing suspicion. Yet, he still acted calm, as though nothing had happened.He even tried to hold my hand, it was warm, but somehow unpleasant. I couldn’t bring myself to let him keep holding it, so I quickly pulled my hand away.“Maybe you’re thinking something bad,” he said softly.There was worry in his eyes.As I exhaled, I thought about ending the argument right here. I needed to calm myself down, I didn’t want things to get out of hand. I mean, a fight.With my emotions flaring, I wasn’t sure how much worse this could get. Our relationship had actually been improving. Maybe once I cooled down, I’d ask him about it again.He didn’t just let me walk away. Staying by my side, he asked again.“Irwen, if there’s something you want to say, you can talk to me.”I shook my head right then. I had already decided not to bring it up, so I wouldn’t. When I went into the room, Kairos didn’t come in right away.

IrwenThe uneasiness within me grew even stronger, even after I had arrived home. I wanted to see Kairos and find out the real reason behind his behavior.I let out several deep breaths, trying to calm myself down. A few moments later, I continued my work and eventually ran into Rowan. His expression instantly brightened when he saw me, and he stood up, leaving the task he had been doing.“Luna Queen Irwen! You’ve returned?” he said as he quickly approached me.As I looked around, I noticed that everyone working here seemed rather disorganized. It seemed the tasks Rowan had given them were quite heavy, likely related to matters of merging different packs.Kairos wanted efficiency, something that would help with direction and control, but that also meant sacrifices. And with the duels between them now decided, there were many old documents that needed to be handled.“I came to retrieve the documents from yesterday and to submit a report regarding my attendance at the business place ear

IrwenI could see clearly how that man behaved so recklessly. He shoved the human man, someone quite well-known because his business was connected to the government.Now, several people around us were staring at what Darien had just done.“Why are you acting like this, Sir Walker? You’re being very rude to me!” the man named Adam shouted.But he got no attention from Darien, who was busy dealing with another, fatter man. I wasn’t sure what his name was. Some of the men who had been talking earlier also tried to confront Darien.“Stop it! This man is insane!”No werewolves were interfering in this matter, and that was annoying, making me uneasy to the point that I felt I had no choice but to step in.“You were talking about Irwen. How dare you speak filth about her!”Damn it. He didn’t need to make things louder. Those who hadn’t heard the earlier conversation now knew that this was all because of me, when in fact, I didn’t care about it at all.Adam sneered. He stood up with the help

IrwenThis meeting was unavoidable, something I never wanted, because it still left an uneasy feeling inside me.Part of me thought I should be seeing him in a miserable state. But instead, he appeared perfectly fine, not lacking in the slightest. It made me feel deeply unsettled, especially because the smile he gave me when he greeted me was the same as ever, almost mocking.“I didn’t expect to see you here, Irwen,” Darien said calmly.He kept glancing at me, and it made me a bit uncomfortable. Maybe he didn’t realize it, since I was trying so hard not to let it show, and I certainly didn’t want him to notice.“Maybe you’re deliberately following me,” I replied sharply.He seemed a little surprised by my words, but he didn’t back off. He followed me into the hotel. If this business meeting involved him, I would have thought of a better way to avoid crossing paths with him.Now, though, it was too late, people around us had already started noticing. In business, it wasn’t just werewol

DarienI swear, I could feel a sharp pain in my chest just thinking about it. I don’t know why I feel this way when the choice to betray her was made consciously by me.Maybe it’s because she turned around and betrayed me instead. She wasn’t supposed to do something like that.I’m disappointed in her for shattering the way I used to see her.I mean, I knew Irwen as a gentle woman who always cared about me, even if she didn’t show much expression. She showed her care by always doing whatever I told her to.Even when she was busy, she would still find a way to do something for me.She always acted straightforwardly, never once doing anything that resembled betrayal.So when she exposed my affair right in the middle of the council meeting, before the Alpha King—I was completely shocked.She betrayed me.I kept replaying it over and over in my head, trying to convince myself it wasn’t true. But it was. She planned everything, and in one swift move, she crushed my entire career.How… how c

Damon’s POVAfter the conversation with Mr. Clarke, I immediately ran to Addison's hospital room excitedly. I knew I still had a chance to make things right with Addison, and I wouldn't waste it. I would also prove to everyone, especially Mr. Clarke and Addison's father, that I still deserved to make Addison happy.I also won't waste Mr. Clarke's sacrifice, who, with his kindness, let Addison go for me. I knew it was hard for him to decide for Addison.Arriving in front of Addison's hospital room, I let out a long breath, trying to strengthen my heart. Come on, Damon, you can do it!After that, I opened the door to the room and saw Addison, who happened to be staring at me, too. She was alone and seemed to have been crying. I knew that this was the right time to express my feelings to her, which I had experienced during the time she didn't remember me anymore.I stepped slowly to the center of the room and stopped. Addison was still looking at me without saying anything. She just look

Hayden’s POVI let out a long breath after walking out of Addison's hospital room with a horrible feeling. I stayed in front of the door long to calm myself down. I knew my decision had been well thought out after seeing Addison, who kept calling the man's name while in a trance. I foolishly let Addison go because I knew she couldn't get Damon's image out of her mind. I knew this was the right decision because I couldn't possibly keep a woman who still held the love of another man in her heart. Even though I felt my passion for Addison was more significant than anyone else, including Damon Saunders.When I felt a little better, I was about to leave this place and go home. However, my gaze fell on Damon, sitting in the corner of the hospital hallway as if waiting. I walked over to him. Damon looked at me as I headed towards him, then stood up from his seat.I was standing two steps before Damon with my gaze fixed on him. "I want to talk to you."Damon nodded his head. I walked first, a

Addison POVI was still surprised by what Hayden said. I didn't think he would say that now when I still didn't understand what was going on. Everything seemed very confusing to me. Then, with his silence, it was as if he didn't care about what Damon did to me.I shook my head quickly. "No, Hayden. That can't be happening. We just had a beautiful relationship. You know I'm happy with you..."Hayden retook my hand and squeezed it hard. His eyes looked very cold looking at me. What's with those eyes? Can't he look at me with a loving gaze?"Addison, you better be honest if you've been lying to yourself, and it's making you hurt more. Isn't that right?"I paused to digest Hayden's words, which seemed very painful if they were true. If so, I must have hurt Hayden a lot. I looked at Hayden and shook my head slowly. "I'm okay, Hayden. I feel fine."I was surprised to realize that my voice was stammering. Was I nervous?"I found out who you really love," Hayden spoke again.Suddenly, I raise

Addison’s POVI opened my eyes and smiled when I saw Hayden standing not far from the bed. Then, I felt something grasping my hand. Was it Dad? However, when I looked down to get a better look, it wasn't Dad but Damon. That, of course, surprised me a lot.Hayden just looked at me without wanting to come closer to me, so I knew the man who was holding my fingers was Damon. Shouldn't Hayden be angry?"Why is that man here?" I asked Hayden while pointing at Damon. However, Hayden remained silent and said nothing at all.Suddenly, Damon raised his head and smiled at me. "Addison."I looked at him in astonishment. How could Dad and Hayden let him be here? I looked back at Hayden, and he was still staring at me silently and showing no signs of preventing Damon.Damon moved closer and immediately hugged me. I was surprised by what he did. This really makes me not understand what's going on. Why is Damon here, and now he is hugging me? And Hayden, who is just silent as if he didn't see me, Da

Damon’s POVI really feel so broken at this point. I was so stupid to have done bad things to Addison all this time. I admit that no matter how much good I do, I won't be able to erase the sins I've committed against Addison.After I let her be happy with Mr. Clarke, I thought there wouldn't be any more bad things happening to her. Turns out I was very wrong. The disaster was Cora, who escaped my attention. I should have deterred Cora by what she did to Addison back in the day. I felt stupid for letting her wander around with a grudge in her heart. I would have made her disappear long ago if I had known Cora was after Addison.Jared informed me about the accident that happened to Addison, which made me angry. Plus, I was told that Cora was the culprit. Indeed, after I got an ultimatum from Jared to let Addison go, I didn't just let it go. I asked Jared for absolute conditions to keep monitoring Addison's condition. Jared said he would do it in a limited time. I promised him that if Ad

Hayden POVThe smile that appeared on Addison's face was extraordinary. She is really very beautiful when she smiles, and it makes me love her even more. We chose to sit on a park bench to enjoy the snacks we bought and canceled lunch at the restaurant."You have to finish all this food."I chuckled at her annoyance at the amount of food I had bought."Don't worry, I'll finish it. You know I eat a lot."Addison chuckled at my joke. "Yeah, I know. That's why if I make a cake or food for you, I don't worry because you have to finish it."I laughed out loud again."You know, Addison. Any food you make automatically becomes my favorite food."Addison's face turned red. I'm sure she blushed at my teasing words. Addison blushes easily when anyone compliments her. She really is a very innocent and naive woman.Addison only ate a little of the food we bought. I, on the other hand, couldn't finish it all and intended to take some home to give to Nataly.After enjoying lunch at the city park, w
