“Giselle-” Catherine whispered in disbelief.Her daughter had stepped foot on her old path!Catherine's most fearlest nightmare had come to life.“I know, mom. I know I shouldn’t feel that way. But I can’t resist the thought of how I don’t want it,” Giselle frustratingly exclaimed.From the moment that test showed her positive, the feeling within Giselle was pretty strange. She did not feel happy as she should have been. Instead, all she could feel was a heavy burden right at her chest. She barely took good care of herself, not to mention her pup!Do not get her wrong. Giselle wanted to have a pup with Marcus. She really did.But she did not expect the pup to come this early! She did not even have time to prepare herself mentally! And worse, Giselle and Marcus were suffering from a big trouble that could cause her to lose her mate!If she had lost her mate, and she could be banished from the pack due to the act of deceiving their head alpha, then her pup would have to live Giselle’s a
Another week had passed, and still nothing new from the Brownson pack. The heir to the head alpha position had not been decided yet. Sir Alex still took Lukas’s advice to be considerate. Although the Elder had thought Lukas would urge him for the answer as soon as possible, Lukas made no move.Sir Alex did not know what Lukas was thinking nor could he guest. The head alpha of the Ashes pack was a walking mystery of himself. Sir Alex knew he should take full caution of this Lukas. And now with him laying low on his activities, Sir Alex finally had some rest and focused on choosing the next head alpha, whether it would be Giselle or anyone else in the pack. He still needed to take the matter into full consideration.Sir Alex would choose Giselle if the girl was the only possible option. But the Elder prayed night and day for that to not come true.Brenna and Tina were anxious.No. They were not worried about the Brownson pack’s men that luring around their place anymore. Marcus had them
Marcus reached home forty-five minutes later only to find his apartment was empty.He looked around with a puzzled look.For sure, the mess he created a week ago had been cleaned up by none other than Giselle. The whole apartment’s living room had been back to its normal stage except for some broken items that had not been replaced. But aside from that, everything looked normal.Normal to the point it felt abnormal to him.Dust made up a sheer layer covered everywhere. It showed that there had been a lack of someone cleaning the apartment for a good amount of time.It used to happen before when he was single and living by himself. But now, he had Giselle, a clean freak, he must say. She would not leave the house unattended like this.What was wrong?A slight fear crept into his skin, making goosebumps to spread out. The head alpha felt anxious.His whole apartment felt cold and lacked the usual comforting eucalyptus scent from the one and only Giselle. His wolf was howling. It had r
“Giselle! Please! It isn’t a good idea to come up there!”Catherine pleaded. She tried to hold Giselle back as the Luna was so in rage! She wanted to head to Tina’s asking what did the omega want. Giselle had tolerated Tina for too long then! She would not be taking this again!She had to make it right one time for all if she ever wanted to live a carefree life again!“Mom, trust me! I’m not doing anything reckless. I’ll be coming home soon,” Giselle hugged her mother, trying to calm the omega down.Giselle knew Catherine only meant good to Giselle. But Giselle just could not take it anymore.Angrily, the Luna left for Tina’s apartment.Within a few rings of the doorbell, Tina opened up.Giselle was surprised to see Tina, to say the least.The once enchanting omega had never looked so battered like this. Tina looked like she had been through hell and back. The girl looked worn out. She reminisced of a girl who had been suffering from an incurable disease for years!Tina as of then loo
“How’s my daughter’s wolf? How’s she? Is she okay? Can I see her now?”Brenna surged up from her chair, rushed forward to Fynn, and interrogated him with a string of questions.In contrast to her urgent expression, Fynn was still with his indifferent expression. He replied to her questions with the usual tone of voice of a doctor talking with his patient. Thought it might sound like he did not care, but if anyone paid close attention enough, you would hear his unusual seriousness.“Your daughter is fine. Besides from losing blood, there are no wounds visibly and non-visibly. She is only fainting, the girl will be waking up in no time. However, what we should care about is mostly about her wolf.”Fynn paused to take a breath. Unknowingly, his gaze caught the sight of Giselle, who was sitting on the bench behind Marcus and Brenna, who was standing close to him then. Fynn could tell Giselle wanted to go up, too. Yet, maybe it was because of the two in front of him then that had her sitti
His decision felt like a heavy weight that crushed Giselle down.The Luna snapped at him, “What?”Marcus did not even mind looking at Giselle when he said that. The head alpha focused on the road ahead. He made no intention to get out of the car to open it for Giselle either. The head alpha only sat there and threw his harsh words at Giselle again.“I can’t be with you anymore. We’ll discuss about our divorce soon.”“Marcus!” Giselle exclaimed.However, the head alpha did not stop, he continued with his ranting no matter whether Giselle was listening to him or not, “In the meantime, it would be best if you moved out of your mom’s place.”“Marcus!”“In fact, I think it would be best if you two could move somewhere else in case Brenna comes back.”“Marcus!”“When we’re finalizing with our divorce, my guards won’t be around protecting you anymore. You should move by then.”“Marcus! Are you listening to me?” Giselle was frustratingly exclaimed.The head alpha finally stopped his ranting.
“Hey, how’s going?”Fynn closed his office door as he talked on the phone with his friend.“Yeah, I have something to ask. Can we meet? Cool. You can call others, too. Let’s have some fun.”Fynn hung up the phone as he glanced through his monitor.On the screen, his front office’s door camera caught sight of a sneaky banished Luna from the Brownson pack. The banished Luna looked like she was spying on him. Maybe she was afraid that he had heard the conversation which was full of her triumphantly about her daughter losing her inner wolf.What kind of mother would act like so?Except from the kind of mother that wanted her daughter to do so.And now, Fynn thought, no, Fynn was sure that Brenna was the second type, the one who wanted this tragedy to happen.Speaking of which, Fynn then recalled what had happened in the ER room just this morning.Commonly, when your precious daughter lost her inner wolf and had just gone through an emergency, what would the first question of you would be?
When Giselle reached the packhouse, Marcus had already been there waiting. Unlike the other days when the head alpha would go straight into his office, Marcus took his time this day.The head alpha sat outside the packhouse, making no effort to think of going into the packhouse. He knew too well what would happen once he stepped a foot inside.He sat still in his car, patiently waiting.However, even the head alpha himself did not know what he should be waiting for.A few moments later, a familiar car came into sight.Seeing Giselle got off, Marcus unknowingly got off, too.The Luna was obvious to the head alpha’s presence. The two were staring at each other.Giselle was thinner than the last time Marcus had seen her. However, the Luna did not look sick at all. There was an aura cast around her, making her appear glowing in Marcus’s eyes.The head alpha’s inner wolf was almost break-free the moment it caught its mate’s eucalyptus scent. The scent that it had come to miss dearly but di
