Harley’s P.O.V.

“W-What?”

My jaw slacked as Carlos’s demand shriveled my stomach, catching me off guard. I didn’t imagine he would bring up that promise all of a sudden.

Gulping a lump in my deserted throat, I opened my mouth to speak, but nothing came out of it. The air between us crackled as Carlos’s gaze lowered to my lips.

“I know you won’t give in so easily, so what about you coming with me to moonlight charity auction next weekend?

I need a date, and this way, we will know about each other better.”

His statement reminded me of the werewolf community’s lavish event, the moonlight charity auction where the cream of all the packs were invited. Xander was used to attending this party to look for profitable business opportunities with other packs.

During our three years of marriage, he had never asked me to come with him. And when I showed my interest, he refused bluntly.

“Stinky plain housewives can’t attend the formal parties, Harley. Although you are my Luna, no one will b

    Harley’s P.O.V.“What?”I gawked at her, unable to catch the gist of the issue. Her sudden offer didn’t give me a chance to react or speak as Ava slipped a ring into my finger frankly.“Here! We will try them together. Like best friends who take down luxury stores as a team.”The glitter of pure diamond immediately caught my attention, kicking out every other thought from my mind. I was awestruck to see the beauty of the expensive jewelry. After my wedding, Xander never took me shopping, leaving me with marriage presents only. It’s been ages since I last went to any mall to buy something solely for myself. I chuckled, slipping another ring onto my hand besides her. “This feels illegal!”“That’s what makes it fun, Harley!”Ava winked playfully and soon, we both were modeling rings side by side, laughing as we made ridiculous poses and dramatic selfies under the showroom lights. The staff was also amused by our enthusiasm. Ava’s infectious energy brought smiles to all faces around he

    Harley’s P.O.V.“You are safe, Alex!There’s nothing in your mind, but thoughts. You are healing.”Carlos’s cold voice echoed in the room as we watched him in stunned silence. He worked his magic on Alex, calming his panic. His body was still as his breathing evened out, stopping his quivering altogether. Alpha exhaled sharply, drawing back, the redness in his eyes faded. But the air still hummed with whatever power Alpha had just used. Derek was the first one from us to recover from this shock. He gasped in disbelief.“Y-You, did you just compel him?”Carlos stood, adjusting his cuffs like he hadn’t erased a phantom of someone’s mind. “Of course!”“But it’s wrong!” Derek protested openly. “Vampires aren’t supposed to compel humans like that. You …”“Poorly trained vampires shouldn’t.” Carlos cut him off, speaking flatly.“I don’t make mistakes.”Hearing his icy tone, I stared at Carlos in a catatonic stupor, my brain trying its best to process this sight in front of me

    Harley’s P.O.V.“What?”Carlos’s weird question caught me off guard. Since when he became interested in poultry farming? And most importantly, what was the connection of this question with my life’s dilemmas?As he raised this query in the middle of a serious conversation, I didn’t voice my reservations and spoke cautiously.“There can be several reasons for such an issue.” Scratching my forehead, I frowned in confusion. “I guess … hens are sick? Or maybe something is wrong with their feed?”Carlos gave a dry chuckle, but it held no humor. “Exactly. You immediately assumed that the problem lies with the hens, not the rooster.”I stared at him, the meaning of his words finally sinking in. “Wait. Are you saying …”My eyes widened as he cut in, his voice tight and low. “I am saying that the problem in this equation is Xander. He had a wife and a mistress, but none of them got pregnant. As it’s easy to blame women in these cases, he used this excuse, although he should focus on h

    Harley’s P.O.V.“Alpha, I am sorry about earlier. Can we discuss it?”After clicking send, I let out a breath I didn’t know I was holding, and showed my phone to Lena.“See, I have sent the text. Now what?”“Now we wait.” Lena poured me another glass of wine and said. “Hopefully, Alpha will reply after your rudeness.”Lena went out with friends for a night out, but later, she realized her hostel gates closed at 10:00pm. So, she came to my place with good alcohol, helping me ease my taut nerves. I was hell worried about Carlos’s behavior change.As expected, Lena had the answers to all my queries. She listened to me carefully and then gave her expert opinion.“Carlos is behaving like a typical jealous, insecure boyfriend who can’t see his woman with other males.”Taking a big gulp, she declared. “He thinks Derek is his rival. So he didn’t want you to have any connection with him.”Her perspective made me choke on my drink, blowing my head away. I couldn’t even digest the word

    Carlos’s P.O.V.I stood by the car, arms folded, trying to clamp down on the storm churning inside me. The tension between us was thick, too thick. But I couldn’t pretend anymore. I couldn’t act like it didn’t eat at me every time I saw Harley talking to that guy like he mattered more than I did.I wanted an answer, an assurance from Harley to be at peace. But she didn’t speak. She just gazed at me, blinking slowly, as if I’d slapped her across her face. Like she didn’t expect me to ask this.And that was what got to me!Why was she even surprised? Couldn’t she see? Couldn’t she feel it?The silence stretched awkwardly as I stared at her, clenching my fists. Harley took her sweet time for thinking and finally uttered, exhaling sharply.“I am sorry, Alpha.”My heart stopped as she spoke firmly. “I won’t break my friendship with Derek.”Her words landed like stones, each one a sharp sting, slicing right through that tether I didn’t even know was holding me upright. And cherry on

    Harley’s P.O.V.What?How did he know that Derek had hugged me in public?My lips parted, but the words faltered, unable to form a proper sentence. I hadn’t expected that Carlos would mention this after his long disappearance. His voice was low but vibrating with suppressed fury, the kind that made the room feel smaller. It was like a storm was crouched in the silence.“Care to explain?”“It’s not like that!” I tried to appear calm, but my voice shook with emotion.“Derek is a friend, and he was trying to be there for me during my tough time.And for the privacy of the Ledger family …”I continued after a pause. “I specifically requested him to launch a hushed investigation that will not go public.”I didn’t know which part of my polite response was so infuriating that Carlos lunged at me, hitching my heart to my throat. I stiffened as his hands clamped down on my shoulders, firm, heated, and trembling with restrained fury. He growled, voice vibrating with power.“To hel
