Violet stayed up all night thinking about her life and future. Clara's words kept playing back in her head. "You are a Luna. You can't be selfish." Did she give herself too much value over her pack and her people? Was she running away from her responsibility? Did she not care about her family and the members of the pack? She realized she was being childish when she told her mother-in-law about her request to leave the position. She also could not get the thing out of her mind about Daniel not being Alpha Wesley's son. She trusted the wrong woman. When Bella Collins behaved well with her, she was indeed confused about it. She trusted her, and she felt trapped in that moment. "That was why Dad does not like Daniel. Because he is aware of the DNA results." She realized that everything was clear, and now she knew Daniel was planning something big. Otherwise, why would he approach after five years? There was only one question left. "Did he really kill Leo?" Clara asked if she ha
Clara glared at Violet as she slapped her. Her blood was boiling with rage. Her gaze shot fire at Violet. Her mind went dark because she could not believe what Violet had just said.Violet held her cheek. Tears blurred her eyes. Clara never slapped her before. Never in her life had her parents slapped her.She collected herself and took a deep breath before turning to Clara.She was taken aback when she saw Clara glaring at her. She had never seen this look of hers. Hatred was reflected in Clara's eyes."M-Mom."Clara raised a finger and pointed at her. "Did you forget who killed my son? How dare you talk about him? Heir? He is that woman's illegitimate child. My son was the sole heir to this family. You got it?"If it were five years ago, Violet would have flinched at Clara's loud and angry voice.But now she has become a mature woman. She moved her hand away from her cheek.She looked into Clara's eyes and said,"Mom, I don't think Daniel killed Leo."Clara's brows rose up. She got
Violet could not believe her ears. Her mother-in-law, Clara Easton, the woman who was always against the remarriage of her daughter-in-law, was not asking her to get married.Something pricked at the corners of her eyes as she stared at Clara. Her heart clenched inside, as if the entire world was against her right now.Was she not enough? Was she not doing well in running the pack? The five years were fine, and she did her best to do everything correctly.Then what went wrong?Why did they suddenly need an Alpha?Clara raised her hand and put it on her head. "You know, Violet, I have always thought of you as my daughter. You did an excellent job throughout the years. Now it's time to share the responsibility with someone. Someone who is really capable."Fraser lowered his head. Raya Easton and Mason Brown cast a glance at their son. Clara's words were somewhat directed at him.However, Fraser did not mind. He let out a deep breath and nodded his head in agreement. He turned to Violet
Violet was in the company. She could not concentrate on her work. Her thoughts were jumbled with the painting of Leo's wolf.Seven years ago, she met a black wolf, but it was not Leo. Although Leo helped her family, he was not the wolf she fell for that night.She shook her head and sighed.'I should not care about who that wolf was. All I need to remember is that Leo came to rescue my family and save me. He accepted and loved me despite the fact that I was nothing in comparison to him.’Her assistant Sam and other employees observed how disturbed she was mentally.Later in the day,Alpha Wesley came to her cabin.Violet immediately got up when she saw him enter the cabin."Dad"Wesley had a soft smile on his face. It seemed something good had happened that he wanted to discuss it with her.She motioned her hand to the couches. “Dad, please take a seat. Is there anything you would like to talk about?”Wesley waved his hand to deny. "I didn't come here to sit. You need to stop working
Daniel's eyes became ferocious. Nick glanced at him, terrified that he would harm Karsen Brooks."Let's not discuss the past. Alpha came here to talk about business," Nick said.Karsen looked at Nick and asked,"What businesses?"Nick gave him a look. "Mr. Brooks, please stand up, and let's be professional."Karsen felt embarrassed by how he was kneeling in front of Daniel. However, he had no choice except to do that.His son-in-law, Alpha Leo, was no longer here to protect his family or his daughter.He recalled what Alpha Leo had told her before proposing marriage to Violet."Daniel wants to snatch the throne from me. That is why he intends to marry into a powerful family from this pack. If you let your daughter marry him, both he and she will be killed. I will kill you all."Karsen did not have a place to go. Since the head Alpha wanted to marry his daughter, he was happy. What would be more respectful to him than seeing his daughter become the Luna of the pack?He was relieved tha
Karsen Brooks did not raise his head. His eyes were fixed on the floor. There was silence in the cabin, spreading a tension of fear and dominance.Daniel was staring at Karsen. His gaze was fixated on him as if they were looking at his prey. A glint of anger was visible inside them, darkening his sight.Nick stood there quietly. His gaze kept moving to his Alpha and Karsen Brooks.Daniel kept smoking, blowing out smoke, waiting for Karsen to speak first.After a while of silence, Karsen was the one who broke it.With his gaze low, he asked,"How are you, Alpha Daniel?"Daniel removed his legs from the table. He moved forward to stub down the cigarette bud on the marble top of the center table.The ashes flickered around the cigarette butt as it smashed down on the table.Daniel gazed at Karsen and replied,"I wanted to be good, but it looks like your daughter..." he paused, noticing the man's reaction.Karsen immediately lifted his gaze and looked at Daniel."What about my daughter?"
