Chapter 8

Author: L-Dystopia
Nate's words made my mind go completely blank.

I didn't even know how I walked out of the office or left the company building.

I just couldn't bring myself to believe it, yet I couldn't banish the thought from my mind ever since it occurred.

No wonder Jace, who had been drugged during the dinner, hadn't started showing any symptoms until he got home.

No wonder Ruby showed up the moment I called her that day.

It turned out to have all been a part of her scheme.

But it was too late to talk a

    After that day, nobody from the Blackfrost pack ever came to cause any trouble for me again.I continued my work at Ashford Group with peace of mind. Under Nate's mentorship, I grew rapidly and earned the recognition of more and more colleagues.I no longer needed to hide my ambition to climb the ladder. Here, it wasn't just accepted but also welcomed for anyone to show their true, sharp edges.Yet, in the quiet of the night, I still dreamed of my younger days, when Jace, Ruby, and I went to an amusement park together. We wore adorable plush hats and clutched cotton candy and sodas in our hands as we raced through that vibrant, colorful world.A week later, I arrived at my desk to find a letter waiting for me.I opened it and recognized Jace's handwriting. There were only a few lines on it, but they spoke volumes to me.He apologized for blaming me for his own mistakes in the past. The incident during his "rut" hadn't been my fault, and he shouldn't have punished me for it.He'd

    Nate raised his glass. "Likewise."Jace let out a cold, derisive laugh. "It's best to avoid underhanded tactics in business negotiations."Nate clearly understood the implication and burst out laughing."What's so funny?" Jace demanded with a frown."We're quite sincere about pursuing a partnership with Fenwick Group," Nate said, his tone heavy with implicit meaning. "It's just that, as it stands, Fenwick Group hasn't even managed to resolve the threats within its own ranks."Jace paused, taken aback. "What do you mean by that?"Nate didn't answer. Instead, he glanced toward Ruby, who was right next to them.Ruby recognized Nate as one of the wolves present that day, and she felt a cold sweat drench her back."You didn't invite me here just for idle chatter, did you?" Jace continued. "I'm sure Ashford Group is aware that Ruby and I are currently occupied with preparations for our bonding ceremony. We don't have time to spare just to play games with you."Nate chuckled softly

She was already pregnant with Jace's pup and was set to become his mate anyway.I walked toward the subway station like a zombie. Even the cool evening breeze couldn't ease the suffocating tightness in my chest.As I passed an alleyway, a familiar scent caught my attention—the scent of my own pack.I glanced into the alley and immediately caught sight of a few hostile, unfamiliar faces. They were gathered together, clubs slung over their shoulders.I took a half-step back and

    The work at Ashford Group was very similar to what I had done before, and as an intern, I found all the tasks assigned to me easy to handle.Nate, my direct supervisor, was also the second-in-command. He was a Beta.He provided meticulous guidance and kept a close eye on how well I was adjusting. With his help, I was also introduced to many more business partners.To my pleasant surprise, everyone at Ashford was incredibly friendly. I quickly made a few friends among my colleagues, and they were people I could chat and have lunch with. They included pureblood werewolves, mixed-bloods, and wolfless pack members. Yet everyone got along well, with no one caring in the slightest about lineage or status.Even amidst the busy workday, I couldn't help but think of Jace and Ruby. After all, Jace was a wolf I'd adored since my student days, and Ruby was still my beloved younger sister. And they would be holding their bonding ceremony and becoming bonded mates in just three weeks.I shook

    The next day was my start date at the new company. I arrived at the office calm and collected, 15 minutes earlier than required.The receptionist was a human woman. "You must be Ms. Riley Vale, starting today, right?" she asked with a smile.I nodded. "Yes, that's me. Nice to meet you."She handed me an ID card. "Here is your access pass. Please take elevator 4, 5, or 6 to the 15th floor."A small group of humans stood in the elevator lobby, chatting with each other. I moved to the other side and waited in front of elevator 4.But I soon sensed something amiss.As the doors to elevator 4 slid open, a pungent, unmistakable scent of a werewolf washed over me.My instinctive aversion to the scent of a wolf from another pack triggered a physical reaction. My body tensed, and the hair on my arms stood on end.Just then, someone tapped my shoulder.I spun around, raising my arms to block a potential attack, but stopped myself abruptly when I saw who it was.It was Nate Brooks, th

    Jace then attempted to call me through the mind link, but he couldn't sense any trace of my presence. It only hit him then that I was simply too far away from him.The moment he got home, Jace retreated to his study and stayed there until late into the night.Jace and I grew up together. We were always the brightest and most exceptional among our peers, and we consistently stood out as the most brilliant and dazzling of the lot at the werewolf academy.When Jace's wolf first awakened at eighteen, he was revealed to be an Alpha, just as everyone expected. He then succeeded his father as the pack's leader. To everyone's surprise, however, I turned out to be nothing more than an ordinary, low-ranking Omega.However, he was entirely unconcerned by my status and kept me by his side, working closely with him. For convenience, he even invited Ruby and me to move in with him.Beyond our studies and work, our favorite pastime at home was reading. We'd each buy our favorite books and sit si
