Max’s POV
My mate is the most beautiful werewolf in our pack.
Although her body is thin and she has no curves at all, I still feel excited to sleep with someone as beautiful as her.
“Forget the body. I can endure it as long as she’s pretty.”
Having that thought, I planned to have a date with her today.
Knock knock.
I looked at the door where I heard a knock. I walked forward.
The next thing that happened took me by surprise!
Elaina is here! And now, she’s wearing a sexy red dress, and gave me the most alluring wink and smile I’d ever seen!
It was a total boner.
“E-Elaina. Why are you here?”
“Hi Max.”
Her sexy voice was enough to awaken my sexual appetite. I’ve been pursuing Elaina’s body for years, and yet, she never agreed despite my effort.
‘But she’s taking the initiative to come to me today with that fucking gorgeous body?’
Licking the corner of my lips, I sneered at her.
“What’s up, Elaina? I didn’t expect that you would come and meet me.”
“Is there something wrong with meeting you all of a sudden?”
She went inside with a body that gave me a constant state of arousal. Instinctively, I grabbed her waist and pulled her towards me.
To my fucking surprise, Elaina was too bold to wrap her hands around my neck.
‘Sh*t. I want to fuck her so hard right now.’
“I am so sad, Max,” Elaina said.
Suddenly?
With a frown, I asked, “Why would you?”
“I heard that you are Elizabeth’s mate. It breaks my heart to think that we don't have a future together. That's why I came here to see you."
‘We?’
Is Elaina finally asking me to be with her?
Damn it! I felt like a fool for planning to settle in Elizabeth!
Even if Elizabeth is prettier than Elaina, Elaina’s body was something everyone dreamed of banging! She’s the real deal here!
“N-No! Of course not!”
Elaina hugged me and whispered, “You mean, you don’t like Elizabeth? That there will be a chance for us?”
It’s not that I hate Elizabeth. A more delicious meal came to me on its own, why would I reject Elaina’s invitation?
“I don’t like Elizabeth,” I said provocatively. “She’s too frail and skinny. Compared to your sexy body, she’s nothing but a stick! There’s only you in my life, Elaina. I only love you.”
“Really?”
I wrapped my arm around her waist,
“Yes, Elaina. You are the only one for me.”
With one swift action, I pulled Elaina toward the bedroom. However…
Thud!
Something fell. I lowered my head and saw her phone.
“What are you…”
“Max!”
I couldn’t finish what I was about to ask because Elaina pulled me for a kiss.
“Hmmm, ahhh, Max.”
She kissed wildly, pressing her tongue at the seam of my lips. She explored all the corners, giving me a state of arousal.
“Fuck Elaina!”
I pulled the back of her head and answered her ferocious tongue attack. Her scent made me crazy. Every time her skin grazed mine, I felt the heat all over my body.
‘Yes. I wanna fuck Elaina. She’s mine. She’s only mine!’
“Max.”
Elaina suddenly pulled back and moved away from me.
‘W-What was that? It’s over?’
“I will meet you again tonight. For now, I need to go.”
Elaina picked up her phone and dashed outside my room.
“What the hell… was that?” I murmured before looking at my er*ction.
Things were going great. Why did she stop?
“Anyway, she must be busy. I just need to wait.”
Elaina promised to come this evening. If that happens, I will never let her escape.
Time passed.
All afternoon, Elaina occupied my mind.
Her smooth skin, her lips, her neck, her legs, her dampness… Everything made me feel so damn excited. I can’t wait!
“Just a little bit more. I just… ack!”
What is this?
“Ahhh!”
Something painful was edging in my head! My body was in heat and my chest was throbbing!
“Ahhhh!”
It felt as if my body would be torn into two! I fell to the ground, squeezing my chest. Everything turned hot like the fire of Turnbull! My mind went hazy, and my tongue felt numb.
‘What is happening?’
The wolf in my head was wailing in sadness. It was then, I realized the reason behind this pain.
“E-Elizabeth.You sh*t…!”
That lowly mate of mine had rejected me!
How dare she reject an Alpha like me?!
“You… you’ll pay for this… ahhh!”
I endured the pain that lasted for hours.
By sunset, the pain was over.
The first thing I thought of was to meet Elizabeth and discuss this fucking matter with her.
“Just wait and see,” I said as I walked outside the house.
“Max, where are you going?”
I tilted my head and saw my father, the former Alpha of the Black Lake Pack.
“I am going to meet someone, Dad.”
“Before that, you have other things to do. Someone from Blood Moon Pack would visit. You should come with me and greet them.”
Blood Moon Pack – the strongest pack that exists.
I was also curious about them.
“All right, dad. I will come along with you.”
My father and I went to the borderline of our pack and met three Beta from their pack.
“Thank you so much for having us here,” one said.
“It was a pleasure to meet the Alpha of the Black Lake Pack.”
I rolled my eyes and cursed inwardly.
‘I thought I’d see the Alpha of the Blood Moon. But they just sent Beta?’
Hiding my grimace, I nodded my head and greeted back.
“Welcome to Black Lake,” I said.
“Our visit won’t take long. We were sent here to find someone.”
“In our pack?” my father asked. “May I know who it is?”
“It is our bravest warrior and Alpha Philips’s brother’s mate. Hogan’s mate.”
Hogan?
I heard about that man.
He was strong enough to guard the borderline of the Blood Moon pack and killed many rogues. However, that man was cursed. All who were close to him died.
‘I wonder who’s that unlucky mate.’
Well, that didn’t matter to me.
I should focus on my date with Elaina.
The meeting ended and we both agreed that we would allow them to search for Hogan’s mate in our pack. As for me, I rushed back home, thinking that Elaina would visit.
“Max.”
“Elaina.”
Still wearing the provocative dress, Elaina came to me. Not wasting time, I pulled her closer and pinned her on the sofa.
The wolf inside my head growled.
“I’ve been waiting for you, my lovely Elaina,” I whispered before I licked her neck.
“Hmmm, ahhh, Max~”
Sweet moans rolled from her tongue. It invited me to do more, to give and take pleasure.
“You don’t know how long I’d imagined claiming your body,” I said, fondling her clothed br*ast.
“Ahhh, Max…”
My hands went on the hemline of her dress. I was about to pull them up and see the treasure I’d imagined hundreds of times. But Elaina held my hand and stopped me.
With a grunt, I looked back at her.
“Max, do you want to sleep with me tonight?” she asked.
“Is that even a question? You know well what my heart and body desire, my lady.”
Elaina wrapped her hands around my neck. She leaned closer, so close that her lips bump onto mine whenever she speaks.
“Then, I need you to do something for me,” she said. “If you do it, I will let you fuck me, Max.”
Elizabeth’s POV[“Hi Elizabeth. It’s me, Max. I messaged you because there’s something you need to know. The truth is Elaina lied to me today. She took that video out of a joke. I felt so guilty for you, Elizabeth. And I want to make you feel better. Can you come and meet me tonight?”]Hope.At some point, I stopped believing that there would be hope for me. Because the moment I do, Elaina will appear and steal everything.But this time, I wanted to believe Max.The wolf inside me suggested calling the number to confirm that it was Max, not Elaina. I didn’t know calling someone would take much courage because my hands right now were trembling as I dialed his number.Kring! Kring! After three rings, the person from the other line answered.[“Elizabeth?”]‘This voice! I know it is Max!’ I felt so happy to hear his voice as I began to hope that things will turn out better.“M-Max. It’s you.”[“Yes, it’s me. Elizabeth, I am so sorry for hurting you. Right now, I don’t know how to face
Hogan’s POV As I walked in the middle of the forest, the sound of shattered glass emphasized the leaves being crunched under my feet. Tonight, I will go and report the border security situation to Philip, the Alpha of the Blood Moon Pack. I always travel alone on the way to Philip’s house. But tonight, I felt lonelier than before. The forest has dark shadows of the voluminous trees and puzzled bushes. When I looked up, I saw the moon in the sky. It was so beautiful, a headlifter and an enchanter. But the beautiful moon, which was the core of life for werewolves like me, wasn’t enough to ease my sorrow. In times like this, I remembered certain people, who were huge parts of my life. Yet guilt, disappointment, and hatred filled the void of our histories. The longing to see them again was like a bitter pill that was hard to swallow. Mainly because I was the one to blame for it. 'It was my fault.' My friends died because of my curse. This loneliness and deep hatred to myself w
Elizabeth’s POV Slowly and reluctantly, I opened my eyes. I blinked several times to clear the hazy vision as I scrutinized my surroundings in confusion. Then, I found myself in an unfamiliar dim place. The moonlight shone through the window, brightening the room. And when I looked in front of me, bells rang inside my head. In front of me, I saw a tall man with black hair, tanned skin, and sharp eyes. He was so handsome that I caught myself in awe. Thanks to his strong aura, I snapped myself. I crawled backward and protected my body with all my might. “W-Who are you? W-Where am I?” He opened his lips and answered my question right away. “My name is Hogan. You are in the Black Lake Pack.” As soon as he said those, I remembered the last thing I heard from Elaina before I lost consciousness. [“Hurry up, Max. The Blood Moon Pack people are here. We need to send this bitch as soon as possible.”] If he is Hogan and I am in the Blood Moon Pack, then… “B-Black Lake P-Pack? And yo
I woke up after losing consciousness for the second time. And the experience was awful. Elaina and Betty used to beat me whenever they liked. But today, the torture felt longer than before. My mate, Max, rejected me. Elaina and Max forced me to go to the Blood Moon Pack. I tried to escape but met three rogues in the middle of the dark forest. And now… “Now, I am…” I sat up and looked around. ‘I am back at Hogan’s house.’ I tried to move. When I stepped onto the wooden floor, my eyes went to my legs. There was a bandage wrapped around my leg and a stick to support my recent injury. The only one who would treat this is the person who brought me here. “Hogan.” Everything was vivid in my memories. Hogan came to save me from the rogues. Even if I bit his arm, he took me back and treated my wounds. ‘Why would he do all of these?’ “Did he really save me or just like those bastards, he wanted my body?” Remembering the last thoughts I had before I lost consciousness, I recalled
“Do you want to eat this?” I looked at the deer leg which was tantalizing me to grab and eat it. What stopped me from doing so was Hogan himself. Even if he seems harmless right now, it was tough for me to forget the blood he smeared on his hands when he killed the rogues. “N-No. I am fine. I don’t need it.” Hogan blinked a few times. He then withdrew his hand and placed the deer leg back on the plate. Regret came after I avoided his gaze. Is it really because I fear him? Or is it because of the trauma that my stepmother and stepsister clawed at me? Whatever the answer, lamenting was futile. I already refused to eat the meat. And now, Hogan probably ate everyt… No. When I looked back, Hogan was gone. But there are still remaining pieces of meat on the plate he left. My eyes cored at meat. It invited me to come closer and have a bite. My mind opposed the idea, but my feet walked forward anyway. Shortly, I arrived near the table and in front of the tempting food. ‘Hogan won’t
Elizabeth’s POV I was ready to spend a sleepless night. But when I woke up, I felt betrayed by my expectations. “I… I fell asleep.” Saying it once doesn’t feel enough, so I repeated it again. “I. FELL. ASLEEP.” My first night inside the cursed man’s house was long. I thought it would be impossible for me to sleep since Hogan was with me under the same roof. But to my surprise, it wasn’t scary at all. The birds chirped. My eyes looked at the window, gazing upon the blue sky of the clear morning. The sun was out long before. I guess it is already 9 in the morning. “That was a long sleep.” If I ever woke up this late in our house, Betty would nag at me, saying that I should move my lazy ass up. I would start preparing breakfast and cleaning around while my stepsister was still in her sleeping beauty mode. I lived like “Cindeluna”, a werewolf children’s story where the female lead served her stepmother and stepsisters as a maid. ‘I am not in our house. I should stop thinking abou
Hogan’s POV It was a jest. The delicious meat I ate last night was only because I was hungry. That’s what I thought not until I had her food again. When I was living alone, I only ate bland meat that I hunted myself. It tastes like my life. Bland, raw, disgusting, and worthless. I never felt happy during my meal. But this woman’s cooking changed my perspective. I had long forgotten my childhood days with my parents. I was always looking forward to my mom’s cooking and the time when we would eat together in front of one table. I thought I had erased everything. For I feel like I don’t deserve to remember good memories because of this damn curse. Chewing the tender meat, I lifted my eyes towards the woman eating silently across from my seat. She kept on fidgeting her fingers. Her mouth opened, closed, opened, closed, opened, and closed several times as if she wanted to open an argument but failed to do so. Feigning ignorance, I lowered my head and had another spoonful of the savo
Elizabeth’s POV “If you stay here, you will regret it.” “W-Why?” “YOU WILL GOING TO DIE IF YOU LIVE WITH ME. MY CURSE WILL KILL YOU.” There was a chilling atmosphere when he dropped those words, and I could hide my befuddlement at this. ‘I was afraid of his curse when we first met. Weirdly, I don’t feel like that anymore.’ “I don’t care,” I answered Hogan. I packed my gaze with the truth, wanting to sear this moment into his mind and hope later, he would accept my answer. He glanced down, expression flat, something he had dubbed the Hank effect. “What do you mean that you don’t care?” he said. Hogan’s eyes were stone-cold and serious. Though he left more debate unspoken, his gaze was doing plenty of yelling. “I…” I said while pointing to myself, “I think I am cursed either.” A tornado touches down on his face and his brows. Lightning strikes over his red stormy eyes. “Ever since my mother died, the people around me have stolen what’s mine. I lived a life full of misery. Ma
