The locker's owner Sydnee was as shocked as Lilla."I-I don't know..." she shook her head. "I don't know why there are nails in my locker. These aren't mine.""Whose then, if they aren't yours?" Mina chimed in. "I was wondering why you were sneaking around the locker earlier this morning, so that's what you were up to.""I didn't!" Sydnee shook her head frantically looking to me for help. "It wasn’t me, Luna."It wasn't her. That was what my gut was telling me.The look in her eyes is genuine. However..."We have both witnesses and evidence. Do you still want to argue against it?""But... I really didn't!" Sydnee took Lilla's hand. "You believe me, right? We grew up together!"Lilla looked troubled, but she still said, "Luna, I don't think it's Sydnee. Maybe we should search a few more lockers?"That's what I had in mind too. That Mina girl was the most suspicious. I really wanted to check her phone now, as the content in it could possibly explain everything.At this moment, a female
Before I could react, Enzo dragged Kyle away from me by his collar."A verbal thank you would be enough," Enzo snapped, his face a little sullen.Kyle laughed dryly and kept glancing upstairs; I immediately understood what he meant.Kyle had probably brought his date home, but he didn't want Lilla and Enzo to know.The most important thing to do now was to get Enzo and Lilla away.I focused on the unfinished red wine glass and pretended to head to the sofa to sit down.But then...I turned my hell and hit the coffee table directly. The glass fell to the ground, spilling red wine all over my dress."Oh, dear!" I exclaimed.Enzo walked over. "What's wrong?"I learned on him and gasped, "I knocked on the coffee table with my knee, and my skirt is ruined.""It's okay, I have clean clothes in my room. You can wear mine for now," Lilla said.Just what I wanted.But instead of following Lilla upstairs, I raised my head to look at Enzo and frowned. "I hit my leg, and it hurts. Could you carry
Enzo's POVI couldn't let Andrea go to the border and face those Rogues.She has received proper training and had been trapped in Alpha Michael's villa for nineteen years.She has no combat or fighting experience. So, I didn't stop Cindy from saying those hurting words to Andrea.Cindy was right. She wouldn't be of any help on the battlefield.But that didn't mean she would be a burden to me. I just couldn't bear the slightest possibility of her getting hurt.Just like today.I knew she hadn't hurt her knee, but I picked her up nevertheless because even a slight bruise on her distressed me.I've seen her on the verge of death, which nearly killed me.That's why I couldn't allow her to follow me into the battlefield.Her lips moved lightly, as though she wanted to say something more.But in the end, she just forced a bitter smile and said, "Go on then. You'll definitely win."I pulled her into my arms and kissed her forehead gently. "Wait for me."Half an hour later, Kyle brought a tea
Enzo's POVCindy visibly flinched upon seeing me.After a few seconds, she said, "I was going to ambush the Rogues."I approached her and looked her in the eye. "That's not a smart move. You know that.""...I'm sorry, Alpha. I was just eager to contribute," Cindy said, baring her neck in submission."Go back," I told her.I'll give her a chance whether she was telling the truth or not, for the sake of our partnership.She took two steps back, then turned around and asked, "Are we really going to kill all those Rogues, Alpha?""What do you think?" I asked back, studying her expression."I see." Cindy left without anything else.Three days later in the morning, just as I was about to rest, there was a sudden rustling. I could hear messy footsteps coming.In the darkness of the night, dozens ghostly wolf eyes flashed. With saliva dripping from their fangs, they approached me.The Rogue leader was a black-brown male wolf with a sturdy body and a sharp glint in his eyes.Those Rogues had t
"Luna! Alpha has returned!" a maid shouted excitedly as she ran inside."What's all the fuss? Where is your manner?" Mary came down the stairs and scolded the girl.The maid lowered her head, dare not say another word.I always had a hint of fear when I faced Mary, and I wasn't sure why.Perhaps it's because she had taken care of Enzo growing up, and I should respect her.Or maybe it's because she really resembled Ellen and reminded me of my miserable past.Whichever it was, I didn't dare speak up in her presence.I took a deep breath, then said, "I'll go out and have a look, then.""Wait!" Mary called out from behind me."Is there something you need?" I turned around and asked.Mary raised her eyebrows, her wrinkled eyelids wide open. With a smug look, she said, "You should be well aware of your position after this battle, Miss Gilmore.""...""The one who can truly stand by Alpha's side, helping him handle pack affairs and facing powerful enemies... that's my daughter, Cindy, and no
Enzo leaned closer to me and said, "You're in heat."His hot breath sprayed across my skin. It felt good, and it relieved my discomfort to some extent.My arms came up to wrap around his shoulder involuntarily, as I rubbed the tip of my nose against his neck. It was my instinct, and it felt natural to react that way.His muscles turned rock hard under my touch, like a marble baked in the sun."I-I don't... feel so good..."My head was dizzy. My grip on his arm tightened till my nails dug into his flesh.The wine scent he exuded constantly lured me closer, seducing me. I felt drunk but also very much sober at the same time.My brain was in a mess, but my body was moving toward Enzo with a clear purpose..."Enzo..." I muttered his name."I'm here."His voice seemed to echo through the void in my mind, and my ears throbbed at the words "I'm here."I wanted him, my body was telling me so.It was so hot! I felt like I was burning!Yet at the same time, the rational part of my mind was desp
Enzo's hand came around my waist, and then he lifted me. Before I could react, he suddenly pushed my legs apart.I felt my cheeks burn.Enzo held my gaze for a few moments before he leaned in slowly.His hot breath brushed across my thighs, and I instinctively tried to pull away from him. But Enzo held me down close to him."Don't move," he ordered.Then I felt his warm, moist tongue on me, licking my folds.I gasped sharply as I felt his tongue circle my slit. Without warning, he suddenly took my clit in mouth, sucking hard on it and gently tugging it with his teeth."Ah!"I've never felt anything like this before! I could only tighten my grip on his hair as he continued.Enzo chuckled softly. The sound sends a shock through my body till it settles in my stomach."Does it feel good?" he asked.Enzo went back to licking at me more intensely without waiting for my response. Soon, I was drenched under his tongue.Enzo raised his eyes to look at me through his lashes, his golden-brown ey
"Are you awake?" Enzo asked as he walked out of the bathroom. He had a towel wrapped around his waist, water dripping from his naked body.I squinted and opened my mouth to speak, finding that my voice rough and hoarse, "How long has it been?"Enzo walked over to the bed and leaned down, placing his arms at my side. He planted soft kisses on my forehead. "It's been three days, babe."I lowered my eyes thoughtfully.So the only thing I did for the past three days was to mess around on the bed with Enzo in this room?The rational came back to my desire-clouded brain, and I couldn't help but sigh.My sigh was cut off abruptly by Enzo's sudden kiss. He licked my lips, fingers coming up to stroke the hair on my temples.He huffed after the kiss. "I know what you're overthinking this, but don’t be. You were meant to be mine. It was just a matter of time."I stared into his eyes, and he touched my lips again as though he was addicted. "Come on. It's time to get up."So he said, but he remain
