In her invisible form, Clarice attended Aurelia’s burial. She looked at her ex-husband with sympathy in her heart. In Alpha Bruce’s eyes, she was already dead. Now, his second wife Aurelia was also dead. She wished he had found a better woman if he ever fell in love again.For a moment, she wanted to show herself to him to console him, but her appearance might only confuse him even more. It’s better to stay dead in her ex-husband’s eyes because her marriage to him was over a long time ago. There is no need to add more complications to her current life.Her relationship with her husband is still on the rocks. That is one thing she needs to fix.‘What if your husband connects the dots together, and he will find out that you killed his ex-wife Viviana? What are you going to do?’ A tiny voice inside her head asks.She ignored the question, believing that her husband would side with her instead of his dead ex-wife.After Aurelia’s casket was lowered onto the ground and flowers were thrown
Clarice left the cemetery and teleported home. She entered the mansion through the main door. She wants to normalize her presence in the house and wants the maid to know that she is back for good.“Luna, your husband is not in the house yet. They went to the cemetery to attend Viviana’s burial,” the maid informed her.Clarice smiled. “It’s fine. I just want to see my son. Where is he?” she asked.“Upstairs in his room,” the maid answered.“OK. I’ll go and see him.” Clarice walked towards the stairs.“I'll prepare some refreshments, Luna,” the maid said cheerily.“Yes, please. Lemonade juice and some cookies will do,” Clarice responded with a smile.“OK. I’ll take them upstairs later after I’m done with the preparation," the maid replied, heading to the kitchen.Clarice climbed the stairs and went to her son’s room, excited to see him.She entered her son’s room and smiled brightly. "Hello, my son. Mommy is back!”“Mommyyyy! You're back!” Caden shouted in glee, happy to see his mother
The evening has finally come.The maid entered the room and announced, “Luna, dinner is ready. They are already waiting in the dining room.”“OK. Thanks. We'll come down in a minute,” Clarice replied, calling her son. “Let’s have dinner now.”“Yes, Mommy,” Caden replied.They put the toys in the basket and left the room. When they arrived in the dining room, the men were already eating.Alpha Callum addressed his wife and son. “Take your seats,” he said.Caden sat beside his father and Clarice sat beside her son.“Let’s eat,” Clarice said, smiling at her husband, breaking the ice between them.Alpha Callum nodded his head in acknowledgment. Grandpa Eliezer and Beta Amir continued eating.They ate in silence, enjoying the delicious dishes and the company of each other.“Mommy, will you sleep here tonight? We will sleep together in Daddy’s room. Please?” Caden begged with puppy dog’s eyes.Heavy silence fell in the room. Everyone froze.Grandpa Eliezer and Beta Amir exchanged knowing gl
One month later.Demetria was ready to leave the sacred mountain. "Are you nervous?" she asked.Clarice nodded her head. "Yes, a bit. I'm used to having you here, so it would be hard to see you gone. I hope you will stay a little bit longer..." she said wistfully.Demetria smiled and patted her successor's hands, comforting her. "Don't be nervous, everything will be alright. I served long enough as the guardian of this mountain. It's about time for me to retire and pursue other things.""OK. I understand," Clarice responded, teary-eyed."The magical book in my room. You can read it to gain more understanding of your powers. There are so many things you can do to improve your powers. So many things to explore on every page of that book. You will be amazed at how powerful you are. I only limit myself to powers that I think would benefit me greatly, as for the rest, I think they are no longer important, and I consider them as excessive. So it's up to you if you apply them all or not. Fee
Clarice was thirsty. She needed to drink water, but she had difficulty holding the glass in her frail hands. She attempted again and this time she succeeded, but her hands shook uncontrollably, and the glass fell from her hands, spilling the water on her dress. The glass rolled and fell to the floor with a loud thud, sending broken glass all over the floor.Damn! She feels hopeless and useless.Tears of frustration filled her eyes. Why did she end up this way?Why?Why has she become so weak and ill?She used to be healthy, full of energy and hailed as the most beautiful Luna in the entire East District, the envy of women far and wide. She earned everyone's respect despite the fact she was wolfless.But things took a wrong turn six months ago when she and the other Luna went for a fun hunt in the forest, and she was bitten by an insect of unknown origin. When the hunt was over, she had a high fever for one week, got itchy rashes all over her body and her health deteriorated from that
Clarice's head snapped angrily in shock. "Whaaaaaat? This can't be!" She howled in pain. Her body trembled in rage. She couldn't believe that her best friend would stoop this low and betray her.No way! Not after everything she had done for her.Tears rolled down her face as the sadness, pain and grief of being betrayed by two people she loved and trusted tore her heart to pieces.The betrayal is too much to bear and it's killing her.Overwhelmed with too much bad news in one day, Clarice's defenses crumbled. The pain was so deep and blinding she started seeing dancing stars everywhere... then her body shut down and darkness enveloped her consciousness.Seeing her mistress pass out, Lorey began to panic. "Luna, please don't die on me! Please don't leave me. You are the only family I have!" She grabbed Clarice's hand, felt her mistress's pulse, feeling relieved that there was still a tiny bit of movement on her chest.Lorey is terrified. She noticed that although Luna Clarice was still
Alpha Callum read the message one more time, gritting his teeth in anger. He shoved the crumpled paper in the pocket of his black hooded jacket, meaning to cancel his identity while visiting Luna Clarice's room. He heard the news that she had been ill for a long time and dying, which is why he came to see her one last time.But he did not expect the shocking revelation she wrote in her letter that completely blew his mind away.He shut his eyes for a few seconds as the past came rushing back to his mind on one fateful night when it all started.No, it's not the right time to reminisce about the past. He needs to save Clarice before it's too late.Shaking his head, he walked to the door and exited the room."Let's make this discreet," Alpha Callum told the servant."I know a secret path that will lead to the other building without getting seen, Alpha," Lorey said in a low voice."Lead the way," Alpha Callum replied in a hard tone. He put the hood on his head and sent a mind link messag
Alpha Callum appeared outside a wooden house in the middle of a forest."Pops, where are you?" he called out to his grandpa at the top of his lungs. "Open the door!""Grandpaaaa!" he shouted again.The door of the wooden house opened and an old man in his 70s stepped outside. "Why are you so loud, son?" He protested. "You disturb my meditation time," he grumbled."I brought home a patient for you. Remember Clarice in the cottage? She was severely poisoned and she is dying. Please hurry up, save her!" Alpha Callum said urgently."Clarice who?" Grandpa Eliezer asked in bewilderment. He knew someone with that name, but that was a long time ago."Never mind," Alpha Callum said, rushing to the door.When Grandpa Eliezer saw the woman's face, he barely recognized her. The woman is dying. It's not the time to ask questions. "Alright, put her in the vacant room on the second floor," he ordered, opening the door wide for his grandson to enter.Alpha Callum climbed the staircase, entered the fi

While Beta Amir was checking all the messages on Viviana’s phone, he came across a conversation between Viviana and Aurelia. In the conversation, Viviana lashed out at Aurelia, blaming Kaspar for wasting her $5 million pay for a botched job. Kaspar failed to kill Luna Clarice during her cruise ship vacation holiday with her husband.Viviana wants her money back!The back-and-forth bickering between the two women was clear as daylight, highlighting their joint cooperation in eliminating Luna Clarice from Alpha Callum’s life.Beta Amir shook his head in shock and disgust. In the past, he pitied Viviana, but he didn't approve of her hiring a person to kill her rival. Viviana could have moved on spectacularly with her life, but instead she hired someone to kill Luna Clarice. In the end, Viviana was killed by the same woman she wanted to eliminate.It’s called Karma!He put Viviana’s phone in the pocket of his jacket and left the room.Outside the door, he informed Alpha Callum via a mind
The following day.Grandpa Eliezer arrived at the pack’s funeral home where Viviana’s body was being held for viewing by pack members since she was the former Luna of the pack. Everyone was given a chance to see her one last time.He sat beside his grandson. “Son, what happened? The news took me by surprise. How come Viviana went to the beach house and rode a speedboat, then drowned afterward? It does not make sense at all. She knows how to swim, right?” he asked in bewilderment.Alpha Callum took a deep breath. "The guard told me that Viviana had arrived at the beach unannounced and got into the speedboat, but before that... they noticed that she looked anxious and tense. In short, she looks problematic. She didn't look alright on the day she met her untimely death.”“What could be the problem? Why did she drive the speedboat at high speed? What made her do it?” Grandpa Eliezer asked.“The maid told me that Clarice arrived at the house while we were at the lake having a picnic. Clari
Kaspar was having breakfast one hour before he opened his fortune-telling store. His store assistant was on a five-day vacation leave in his hometown to attend his sister’s wedding. He will be back tomorrow morning.He received a call, and the call came from Alpha Bruce informing him of the bad news.“My wife, Luna Aurelia, is already dead. I just want you to know that because you are her closest friend,” Alpha Bruce said.“Whaaaat? What happened? How did she die?” Kaspar asked, his hands trembling while holding up the phone.“She went to our vacation house outside the city. The caretaker told me that after she had served dinner to my wife, she went to her room to sleep early because she had a headache. My wife was left in the infinity pool, swimming alone there. The following day, when she woke up and went to the pool to clean the area, she saw my wife’s lifeless body floating in the water. My wife drowned accidentally. No foul play based on the investigation conducted by the police
Viviana fell into the water. Even though she is a good swimmer, she can’t swim and save herself because her body is frozen. She can't move her hands and legs. Her body sinks deeper, salt water filling her lungs, drowning her.Back at the beach, the people saw Viviana still riding the speedboat, enjoying the ride; they didn't know that Viviana’s body had already sunk under the water. It was all just an illusion orchestrated by the invisible Clarice, so even if they attempted to save Viviana, she could no longer be saved.Two hours later…One of the guards saw that the speedboat had already stopped moving, and the driver was nowhere in sight.It took them a few minutes to realize that the driver of the speedboat had fallen into the water and probably met with an accident. They rushed to the sea and swam with their might until they found Viviana’s lifeless body floating behind the speedboat.They brought her body to shore and started CPR and rescue breathing.A few minutes later they gav
After learning about Clarice's coming home alive that day, Aurelia decides to hold an emergency meeting with her partners in crime at Kaspar’s place to decide what would be their next step to do considering their victim is still alive.Aurelia arrived at Kaspar's place ten minutes earlier while Viviana arrived fifteen minutes later.They settled on a sofa on the second floor of Kaspar’s house.Viviana glared at Kaspar. “I paid you $5 million to kill Clarice, but why did she return home today, alive and well?” she asked indignantly.“You failed to kill her for real the second time around! How can you be so careless?” Aurelia scolded him, her eyes blazing with anger and disappointment. “I paid you $5 million to end her life completely with no chance of coming back alive. Why didn't you make sure she would die in the ocean? Why?”Kaspar sighed heavily. “Girls, please don’t be quick to blame me. I did my best to eliminate Clarice. I threw her into the ocean. I'm sure she will never surviv
