Vanya's POV

I waved my hand quickly, smiling, "Don't say that. You're Cliff's... friend, which makes you our pack's guest."

I deliberately paused on the word "friend," observing her reaction.

Melinda's face flickered with a change, but she quickly composed herself.

She whispered, "Luna Vanya, you are truly magnanimous."

At this, Elliot couldn't help but interject, "Luna Vanya, she's just a..."

I raised my chin slightly, my gaze firm as I interrupted him, "Elliot, Melinda is now a member of our pack. Her status is special. We must afford her the appropriate treatment. She can't keep wearing those old clothes. She needs suitable attire."

In my past life, Melinda used my aversion to her to pretend to be a sweet girl who was bullied.

In contrast, I was portrayed as a cruel, cold queen.

This time, I chose to change my approach.

Before leaving, I swept my gaze over the pack members one last time and gave Jenny a look.

I went to Maggie's house. As soon as I entered, I saw several exquisite evening dresses displayed in the living room.

Maggie greeted me, smiling, "Vanya, I've had these dresses custom-made for your figure. Come and take a look."

I was filled with gratitude and went over to touch the beautiful fabrics.

At that moment, Jenny also hurried in.

Her eyes held a hint of complex emotions as she approached me and said, "Luna Vanya, let me help you change and get ready."

I nodded and followed her into the fitting room.

Jenny gently helped me out of my coat and picked up a white dress to put on me.

Once, I had tried to cater to his preferences.

I remembered that I thought if I wore a white dress like Melinda, which he might like, I could win a little of his favor.

But instead, he unexpectedly brought Melinda to the gathering, embarrassing me in front of everyone while I was also wearing a white dress.

I casually picked up a bright red evening gown and said to Jenny, "I'll wear this one."

Jenny was taken aback and hesitated, "But... when the tailor came to make clothes for Melinda this afternoon, I noticed Alpha Cliff seems to prefer white dresses..."

I never liked white clothes. I was foolish before, wearing clothes that didn't suit me just to cater to him.

Melinda's style was nothing more than the taste of an impoverished rogue.

I didn't need to lower my status to please Cliff and let others look down on me.

We werewolves earn respect through our abilities and wisdom, not by imitating others to gain others' attention.

"I'll take this one," I said indifferently. "Return all those white dresses. I don't like them."

Facing my instructions, Maggie sighed but ultimately did as I asked.

I put on the evening gown and stood in front of the mirror, examining myself carefully.

It was a burgundy mermaid dress that clung to my body, perfectly outlining my figure, like a rose blooming in the night, radiating a charming allure.

My makeup was delicately blended on my face, my eyes more profound with the outline of eyeshadow and liner.

My long hair was curled into the ultimate gentle French waves, lazily cascading over my shoulders and back, gently swaying with my movements.

Both Maggie and Jenny, upon seeing me, were stunned, their eyes filled with amazement and admiration.

Maggie was the first to react. She walked around me, circling, and couldn't stop saying, "Vanya, you look stunning! I knew you would be the highlight of the event in this dress!"

Jenny also nodded repeatedly, her eyes sparkling, "Luna Vanya, with your beauty, Alpha Cliff will surely change his mind."

I paused for a second, then laughed at myself mockingly.

I didn't need Cliff to change his mind.

I took the keys from my bag and handed them to Maggie, "Drive my car and take me to the venue. I already have the invitation."

Cliff's POV

I entered the venue with Melinda, who was dressed in a simple yet elegant white dress that I had the tailor make for her specifically.

Her hand trembled as she linked arms with me, her voice tinged with fear and shyness, "I... I've never been to such a grand occasion before. I'm a bit scared. Maybe I should go back."

I turned to look at her. As our eyes met, an emotion emanated from the depths of our souls.

She was my true mate. Every glance and every word from her seemed magical.

I gently patted her hand on my arm, trying to sound calm, "You need to learn to adapt. In the future, you will often be by my side at such events."

Melinda nodded slightly, her docile appearance stirring a hint of tenderness in my heart.

At the same time, I felt a pang of guilt towards Vanya.

Just as I was about to step into the venue with Melinda, Elliot's voice rang out inopportunely, "Alpha Cliff, are you not waiting for Luna Vanya?"

The room was filled with steam and a faint, sweet scent.The smell was oddly familiar to Cliff, as if he had encountered it before.But Melinda didn't give Cliff time to think. She threw herself into his arms. Feeling the smooth skin and the warm touch, Cliff shuddered and tried to push Melinda away.However, Melinda wrapped her arms around his neck. Her face was flushed with a hint of red. Her eyes were filled with desire."Alpha Cliff... I really can't live without you. Don't you like me?" Melinda's voice was unusually soft and seductive.Cliff felt an unfamiliar sensation rising within him. Just a gentle touch was enough to ignite the desire he had been suppressing."Cliff, look at me. You used to care for me the most," Melinda said, standing on her tiptoes and placing a kiss on the edge of Cliff's lips.She then teasingly ran her tongue along his lips, a mo

    Third Person's POVCalvert noticed Vanya's hesitation and said, "Don't worry, I checked. There are no cameras around here."Vanya frowned and asked, "Don't you have to go for a photoshoot?""I've finished for today, but I'll probably be around for the next few days. I still have some ads to shoot," Calvert replied."Then go ahead and get busy. I'll do the same," Vanya said, preparing to leave.But Calvert stopped her, placing the takeout bento in her hand. "It's from my grandma.""Mine?" Vanya asked, surprised.Calvert added, "She made it specially for you."Ever since Vanya had visited Calvert's home last time, his grandmother had taken a liking to her.Vanya accepted it with a bit of embarrassment. After all, it was Grandma Sutton's kind gesture."Tell her thank you for me," Vanya said, patting Calvert's shoulder as she left."Keep up the good work! Your future is bright."Calvert watched Vanya's r

    Vanya's POVGrace noticed my thoughtful expression and asked, "Did Cliff suspect you when you went back to the Silver Moon Packhouse today?""He did suspect me, but... it wasn't quite what I expected," I replied."What do you mean 'not quite what you expected'? Isn't suspicion just suspicion?" Grace hugged a pillow, her curiosity piqued as she waited for me to explain.I said, "He gave me a ring today and said... he likes me."After I finished, Grace was stunned. "Cliff?""Yes," I confirmed."This feels like something my silly brother Theo would do," Grace said, looking puzzled.I rested my chin on my hand and thought carefully before saying, "Cliff probably likes Melinda. He's saying this because of M Group. Right now, the Todd Group can't afford any more scandals. He wants to keep me stable. As long as we don't divorce or cause trouble during this period, he can avoid a lot of headaches."I repeated to myself, as if tr

    Vanya's POV"Enough! Cliff, bickering with a woman like this isn't like you. What do you really want by calling me back? Don't tell me it's because you're jealous that I was at Wilmot's birthday. I won't believe such a ridiculous thing coming out of your mouth," I said.Cliff opened his mouth but couldn't find any words."About Melinda, I was wrong about you," Cliff suddenly said.I thought I had misheard."Are you... apologizing to me?"Cliff's expression froze.I looked at him and asked again, "You didn't call me back just to apologize, did you?"Cliff was silent."I knew it was for the apology," I couldn't help but say."Vanya, you..." Cliff's face turned a bit sour.He was used to being in control and having others submit to him. Admitting he was wrong was a big step for him.Cliff tried to stay calm and said, "I was wrong about this. I shouldn't have accused you. But Melinda didn't deserve to go

    Vanya's POV"Sorry, Mr. Hammond, but Alpha Cliff sent me to bring Luna Vanya home," Elliot said, looking at me. "Luna Vanya, Alpha Cliff is very concerned about you. Please come back with us.""What if I don't want to go back?" I asked.Elliot paused for a moment, then said, "Then I'm afraid we'll have to insist."The bodyguards behind Elliot immediately stepped forward. Wilmot tightly shielded me, saying, "Don't worry, I'm here!"I wasn't actually scared. I knew that even if Elliot couldn't take me away, he wouldn't dare cause a scene at the Hammond residence.However, the fact that the Todd family could so easily enter the Hammond residence was quite surprising.It seemed that Cliff's position as the top businessman in Los Angeles was well-deserved.If things really escalated, no one would come out unscathed."Wait." I gently patted Wilmot's back and stepped in front of him. "Today is Wilmot's birthday party. Bringing

    Vanya's POVGrace, holding the skirt of her Lolita dress, ran over and said, "Wilmot's been looking for you everywhere. He's frantic. You should change out of that costume quickly. We'll head back soon!""Alright," I replied, thinking to myself that Cliff would probably send Elliot to find me any minute now.I glanced at Theodore one last time before following Grace back to the dressing room.After quickly changing and removing my makeup, I followed Grace out of the dressing room, only to bump into Wilmot, who had come to find me."What are you two doing here?" Wilmot frowned. "I couldn't find you after we entered. Where did you go?""I suddenly needed to use the restroom," I said, using the first excuse that came to mind.Hearing this, Wilmot's face seemed to flush slightly.He turned his head and said, "Let's go. There's nothing fun here anymore.""Good! Let's get out of here. I don't think there's anything fun here ei
