Se connecterHe was not hunting her.In the middle of the night, Eranthe wrote in her notebook: “Restraint—he is restraining himself.”Recalling that night on the sofa, his confession about his identity and background…From a rational standpoint, Eranthe of course understood the origin of all of Colin’s obsession.His father Austin had used brutality and absolute power to imprison his human mother, Mrs. Zerlinda, in the old Rodriguez estate. His mother, overwhelmed by terror, fled in despair through a blood-soaked scene where the old Wolf King had lost control and committed violence.Colin inherited the Alpha’s most supreme bloodline and killing instincts, yet his inner world had remained frozen forever in that rainy night at fifteen, when he witnessed his mother’s departure.He feared marriage, rejected commitment, and even imposed on himself a self-binding rule of “only sex, no love”—not because he was carefree or promiscuous.He was merely a prisoner trapped by the shadow of his family of origi
“I beg you, Eranthe, don’t be afraid of me, my Luna. I will never, never hurt you.”Standing two meters away in the cold wind, his voice was low and trembling, like a prisoner awaiting divine judgment, laying bare all his vulnerabilities and lethal wolf nature without reservation before her.The wind at the top of the skyscraper lashed Eranthe’s disheveled long hair across her face like blunt blades.Even though the man had shed all his brutality, and even though his ghostly green wolf eyes were filled with humble restraint, Eranthe’s tightly tensed shoulders still trembled violently.After all, he was that black-spined giant wolf. The image of him tearing through flesh and blood would not leave her mind—that was absolute power, and also an absolute anomaly.He was a wolf. He was completely different from her.“Send me back.” Eranthe gripped the hem of her hoodie, not daring to meet his overly deep eyes, her voice hoarse. “Colin, please let me go home.”Upon hearing the words “go home
And began walking toward the door.“From today onward, stop interfering in my life.”“I won't inherit your poisonous version of marriage.”“As for this Pack, I'll lead and protect it in my own way.”Boom.The heavy wooden doors slammed shut behind him.Leaving the old Wolf King staring in stunned helplessness.Was this truly his son?...Far from Assyria City, in a quiet old town nestled among rolling countryside hills, sunlight finally pierced through the dense clouds and spilled across a vast field of golden sunflowers.Wearing an oversized old sweatshirt, Eranthe stood among the flowers.Her face was pale.Her expression distant.A watering can hung loosely from her hand as she watered the blooms absentmindedly.She had discovered this flower farm years ago during a business trip.Back then she had thought that perhaps one day, after retirement, she could spend her remaining years here.Instead, it had become her refuge much sooner than expected.The elderly woman who owned both th
The saucepan in the kitchen had been washed spotless.Several instant photographs were missing from the refrigerator door.He strode into the bedroom and yanked open the closet.His fingers trembled violently in the empty air.It was empty.Aside from a few lonely hangers colliding together and producing sharp metallic clicks, her suitcase and every trace of human warmth that had belonged to her had vanished completely.Only an extremely faint scent remained in the air—the fading smell of grapefruit body oil mixed with rainwater.Colin leaned weakly against the closet door.Loose black hair fell across his forehead, partially concealing the extreme darkness gathering in his eyes.He gripped his hair tightly.A vast emptiness and madness, so overwhelming that it felt capable of crushing every bone in his body, surged over him like a tidal wave.At last, he understood.At last, he understood how his father Austin had felt twenty years ago.That night, Austin had also lost control and re
Blood dripped from the giant wolf’s fangs, mixing into the mud below.It stepped over the remains of its enemies.Amid Zora’s hysterical scream of terror and loss of control, it slowly turned its terrifying wolf face and locked its gaze onto Eranthe, who was frozen in place — so frightened she was nearly unconscious.Rain began pouring down again.The raindrops were like countless icy steel needles, crashing violently onto the ruins of the old laboratory building in the western suburbs.In the mud, Zora's screams had weakened until all that remained was the faint sound of air leaking from her throat.The enormous black wolf planted a paw on her shoulder. With a slight twist of its thick claws, a sharp crack of splintering bone pierced through the storm.Zora's entire body convulsed once before collapsing into the blood-soaked ground like a dead dog, unable even to cry out for mercy.Eranthe slowly regained consciousness.She pushed herself upright and backed away in terror until her b
But Colin had been very insistent.He had already revealed his secret to her, so of course she understood his sincerity.But he was still a werewolf.Eranthe didn’t truly know how terrifying the werewolf race was. In any case, Colin was so handsome and refined—she had no reason to be afraid of him, right?And she couldn’t keep rejecting his goodwill either, otherwise she would seem heartless and unreasonable.The night at the abandoned research facility campsite was met with a torrential downpour. Rain slammed against the temporary waterproof canopy, producing heavy, dull thunderous sounds.Even though it was already past eleven at night, Eranthe, as the administrative supervisor, was still wearing a black waterproof jacket, standing in the muddy center of the campsite to coordinate the lighting setup.In her hand was the signed emergency wiring diagram, already soaked through by rainwater.“The direction of the third row of spotlights is wrong! Shift it five degrees to the left—don’t
Eranthe replied, "If I had no conscience, I wouldn't give you medicine to take."Colin turned his head in frustration.Morris arrived promptly upon hearing that Colin was ill, and Eranthe happened to be handing over her shift to him."Follow the instructions on the medicine labe
Eranthe: ...She really wanted to smash this guy with the water bottle."Go home!"If she kept listening to him, she might start feeling a little soft-hearted.Colin smiled subtly and followed her casually, like a large dog.On the way home, Eranthe repeated multiple
"..." Eranthe concluded that communicating with him was indeed asking for trouble.Eranthe opened the door to leave, and Colin followed.Eranthe cursed inwardly. She had let her guard down. It seemed Colin had taken advantage of the moment to change his clothes, and now he was accompa
Wasn't he just trying to make her insist he stay?"Forget it, sit down and eat. It's like I'm bullying you," she muttered.Colin moved closer. "Miss Taylor, are you inviting me?"He glanced at his watch. "During my working hours, I'm not allowed to eat with clients, but if a cli
