Leah's POV"I am Darren Swanson of the Eagle Tail Pack," Darren replied."And you know who I am?" Lucas asked."You're Alpha Lucas of the White Walkers Pack." Darren shrugged and said."I am Leah's husband," Lucas said in a warning voice."You're nothing but a loser, who was trying to harass a nice lady in broad daylight," Darren said.I looked up at Darren and said, "Darren, thanks for your concern. I'm just having a private conversation with my husband.""He was trying to hurt you, Leah," Darren said in a cold voice. He still held me tightly in his arms and refused to let go of me."And that's my problem. Let me deal with it." I looked at Darren and said in a calm voice.My heart was bleeding when I said those words because Darren looked hurt.He was hurt because he was trying to help me.At that time, I heard Jalin's voice, "Alpha! His Highness is here!"I looked up and saw Lucian striding into the alley, accompanied by his Beta Jalin and Lucas' BetaJorah.Lucian walked past Lucas,
Leah's POV The next morning, I woke up early to attend a morning briefing with Gean Lee. I was still feeling bitter about what happened in the back alley the day before. My heart was still pounding fast as I thought of being pushed against the wall by Lucas. I had to squeeze my hands to force myself to concentrate on the upcoming business briefing. As I walked into the garden, I saw a young man standing next to the table. "Good morning, Miss Leah. My name is Gean Lee. I came here for the morning briefing. It's such an honor to meet you in person." He spoke in a velvety voice with an exotic oriental accent. It was like a mixture of accents. I really couldn't tell where he came from. Like what I had imagined in my mind, he looked tall and lean. He stood with a commanding presence. It was clear that he had served in the army. His physique bore a testament to the discipline and dedication required of soldiers. "Glad to meet you, Mr. Gean Lee!" I said and shook his hands. Unlike his
Leah's POV "Yeah, he's a really great man," she mumbled. "If every man was like Lucian, this world would be a much better place." "Wow! A world which is full of my brother! I can't imagine that!" I laughed out loud. "What? What's wrong with a man being very good at his job, being loyal to his family, his subjects, and..." Laura took a pause and suddenly became sad. "...and Mona..." When she mentioned Mona, my heart sank. Mona used to be my brother's mate, the love and light of his life. Even though she passed away years ago, my brother was still moaning to her. I didn't think he could ever walk out of his grief, because when a Luna of a pack died, the whole wolf pack became weak. In order to protect our pack, my brother had to reject Mona before she passed away. It was the most heart-throbbing thing that I had ever witnessed in my life, and I had witnessed a lot of heart-throbbing things. That was one of the reasons why I wanted to ask Laura to work for me. I noticed that wheneve
Lucas' POV As I stepped into the living room, tensions were running high. The air was thick with anger and everyone was on edge. My father, a stern and imposing man, glared at me with unconcealed fury, disappointment, and disgust. I ruined his pack, his company, and his life. And my father used to kill someone because a bar attender ruined his whiskey cocktail. "Do you have any explanations for your ex-mate sending the divorce papers directly to me, bypassing you entirely?! I'm going to be very frank with you, son. I take this as a personal affront and it only adds to my already simmering anger." My father approached me and said with his hands strangling an invisible neck in the air. "I have no explanation. I never expected Leah would do something like this..." I said. My mother cut me short by screaming at the top of his lungs, "That bitch! That horrible, shameless, filthy bitch! She's doing this to humiliate us! She's doing this intentionally to sabotage our family tie! She's
Lucas' POV "Who... Are... You...?" I asked. I could barely recognize my voice. My vocal cord must have been torn. The little white wolf took a glance at me as if it was checking if I was alright, but it didn't answer my question. Instead, it lowered its head to get closer to my father while stomping on his spine again, triggering waves of my father's scream again. It seemed that this tiny little thing was determined to torture my father before killing him. "Don't hurt my husband!" My mother pleaded in tears. She wanted to protect my father, but she also wanted to hold me in her arms. I could tell she was torn. The little white wolf heard my mother's voice and raised its head abruptly, staring at me. At that time, I recognized its olive-green eyes. "Leah...?! Is that you...?" I asked. Leah's POV Lucas' voice brought me back to sanity. I looked down at the giant grey wolf twitching under my claws. "You damn old fool!" I snarled in anger. "Are you crazy?! Why did you try to ki
Leah's POV "And you're also a loud, loud person, Jorah," Lucas said in a low voice. I lifted my head and saw Lucas looking down at me with a half-smirk on his face. For a person whose throat almost got slashed by his own father, he looked way too happy. And I knew he was happy because he was holding me in his arms. I immediately stood up, shaking my fur and trying to walk away, but he caught me. "Where do you think you are going?" He taunted me, holding me in his giant hands while sitting up. "Urrrgh!" I turned my head, trying to bite him. Wolves don't like being caught. It was almost a reflex. But on that day, I ended up holding his hand in my mouth, scratching my teeth against his long, slender fingers. He tasted so good. I thought to myself. If I was in human form, I would definitely be blushing. "Alpha! You're still alive! Oh, my Goddess! I haven't killed you! Great!" Jorah clapped and jumped up while clapping his hands. "And praise the Moon Goddess for me not being kille
Leah's POV At that time, my wolf stepped back and I suddenly shifted into human form. I hate my wolf! I thought to myself. How could she abandon me like this?! Now I'm all naked, being stuck in a bathtub with my ex-mate, who was clearly ready to make love with me. "Lucas, I..." I whispered, lowering my head, trying to cover my naked chest. Lucas stopped my hands and pressed me against his broad chest. "Leah, please don't go away. Please come back to me. I will give you everything you want. I will make it right this time." He said as he pulled my hip against his. I could feel the erection of his body. "Don't... Lucas... Just don't do this to me..." I whispered. Despite saying this, I became dripping wet. Thank Goddess that I was in a bathtub. But I turned crimson. That was difficult to hide. "Come on, Leah. You know you want this," Lucas drew himself closer and whispered to my ear. "No... No... This isn't fair. I really can't make love with you now." I shook my head, trying t
Leah's POV "Lucas, what have I ever done to you to make you treat me like this?" I whispered after he got off my body. Lucas didn't answer me. I wondered if he had heard my voice after all. He was still furious, panting and roaring like an agitated beast. I wouldn't be surprised if he killed me in the next second. Obviously, the rough sex we had just had didn't calm him down. Whatever he wanted to get, he didn't get from me. His fluid was still all over my body, and so did the bruises and cuts. It was a mess. I could wipe myself clean and heal the bruises and cuts, but the excruciating pain in my heart never went away. I thought Lucas would have walked away and left me alone as he did in the past, but he didn't. Instead, he shifted his hands into giant wolf claws and approached me. I looked at him with horror. Was he going to rip my heart out with those claws?! But he didn't. Instead, he used his razor-sharp claws to cut the tie to cut loose from the bed. Having regained
