Margareth POV
By the minutes and seconds passing, another day greets my sight with cloudy sky. At this time, I stared at the window as the curtain was opened. Following with that, my feet was stepping out from the room since I planned to give hands to the maids in the kitchen. Moreover, while I passed Xavier's room, the noise of giggles and laughters stopped my steps. It was clear enough that Xavier was having fun with Selena just like a newlywed couple with the love fluorishing in their hearts. The situation I realized was totally different from mine, whenever I got the status as his wife legally. The difference I meant here was not like he treated me coldly or improperly, but I noticed that his smile didn't really describe happiness. The past memory appeared clearly in my mind as if my logic showed me the difference between Xavier's reaction to me and when he was with someone else.Margareth POV With his dark brown suit and purple tie, Bastian stared at Xavier madly. "You really test my patience, and I have proven it, dude! I had told you to return her to my mansion, but you are just deaf as an adder." He uttered as his eyes were darted on my sudden existence. Then, I walked as I stood between Xavier and Bastian with frowning forehead, trying to take a preventive action if these guys would fight in the wolves form. "Why are you so eager to take my Luna, huh?" Xavier inquired as he stroke a mocking smile. "Because you don't deserve her! In fact, you have got a mistress, and she will be wasted with the affair you have done!" Bastian told the truth. Rising his eyebrows confidently, Xavier replied, "Still, it is none of your business. I have rights to forbid her not to go with you." Bastian with the rage in his face clenched his fist. I could really see that his muscles contrac
Bastian POV When I was talking to Margie, I was surprised once my old friend, Harper appeared. Her tall and sexy figure was recognizable, especially while the light blue sexy casual dress enveloped her body. Nevertheless, her initiative to hug me successfully made myself speechless. Ar that point, I noticed that Margie darted her eyes with the curiosities in her gaze. Afterwards, I quickly released the hug and said, "Harper, can you please wait downstairs?" "Why should I wait? you are here, so we can still talk." Harper nagged as she combed her wavy hair with her fingers gently. "I still have a guest right now. Don't you see? She looks tired after a quite long journey," I declared as she started staring at Margie reluctantly. Following with her reluctant glance, she uttered, "Don't tell me that this woman is your girlfriend-soon-to be." Realizing the meaning of the w
Meanwhile, at Brown Iris Castle, the feeling of hatred and insecurities lingered in Xavier's heart and mind. He kept walking around his working room, passing Selena sitting on the sofa with the stern expression. The coward Alpha being not able to organize the pack was literally worried if his Luna would never come back after he dealt with the bet proposed by Bastian. "D*mmit! I must not accept the bet if it involves Margie and her feelings. Now, I'm in hot water! It's also beyond my expectation. At the initial state, I just want to have fun with Selena, but it should not continue like this!" He pondered as he squeezed his spiky hair angrily. At that time, Selena stared at him and snapped, "Stop walking nonsensely like that! It will not solve the problems." Xavier then stopped walking around, and he exclaimed, "We are done, Selena! luck is not on our side!" Selena stared at him astonishingly and placated, "
Margareth POV "Margie, where are you going?" The bass voice bothered my attention as I stood on the yard, waiting for Jessie to pick me up. "I'll be going with a bestie in the coffee shop, Bas." I uttered the truth as I looked at his calm expression and the semi-formal outfit, an orange long-sleeved shirt with black pants. Right on the band of the pants, the belt with hermes logo was pasted on it. Those attires really exudes his alluring charm and friendly personality. "Wait, let me call the driver to take you there," He said while starting to pick up the cellphone from one of his pockets. Nonetheless, before he called his driver, I cut in, "No need, Bas. My friend will soon be here. She has promised to pick me up since a few
Bastian POV "After you fight them back, please investigate them further, Carter," I requested as my right hand fixed the earphone plugging on my right ears. "I'll figure their motives. It's on me, Bro. She will be safe." Carter's barritone swayed in my hearing sense. I then nodded, trying to hold on the words uttered by one of my trusted friends. Once I had finished reminding him about the danger lingering around Margie, I disconnected the call immediately. Maybe, I was being nosy for interfering Margie's personal life. However, it was not about bothering somebody's life too far, but this was more about how I showed my commitment to the Moon Goddess. Once, I ever prayed to her, about letting me meet my mate, around a year ago. In my prayer, I also mentioned that I would really maintain her life and safety, no matter how hard the condition was. There it was. Wh
Margareth POV The shocking appearance of Carter Clancys was completely unexpected. The Alpha I used to see on the television advertisement and news was lively standing in front of me. With his taut muscles attached on his tall body, he fought effortlessly. Even, when he had knocked down two thugs in a few minutes, he still could block the attack done by the last man attacking from the back. "GRAPP!" the sound of the bones cracking was discerned as Carter grabbed the man's hands roughly, raised them to the top, and asked, "Tell me, who ask you to mess up with those girls??" The man smirked as endured the swells on his arms and hands. "Why should I tell you?? it's none of your business!!" The last thug uttered rudely. Through his secretive gaze, it seemed that somebody had paid him and his friends to cause a harm on me and Jessie. "But still you agree to harm these girls with your two friends. I'll release you and them if you tell me the p
Margareth POV The Alpha's sudden question made my mind processed the previous moment in order. Each scene came in my mind, and I was able to memorize it in some exact details. Once it was finished, it was connected with Bastian's question about the wounds. In shocking glance, I almost thought that the influential Alpha might have the sixth sense, so that he could see some moments from a far, or even predict the upcoming event in the future. Nonetheless, while he mentioned about sending a spy to my castle, I then speculated that Alpha Carter and Alpha Dave were ordered by him to help me and Jessie. As a result, I bravely inquired although I was doubtful, "S-so, did you order Alpha Carter and Alpha Dave to save me and Jessie?" "Well, I can't say that they save you." Bastian answered as he stared at me playfully with his tiny smile. Then, Jessie said, "But, they fight towards the thugs all at once. At that tim
Margareth POV After making sure about the offer stated by Bastian, my eyes found out that he smiled lovingly at me while nodding. It meant that he was willing to give one mansion to me. That was quite insane! I meant it was fine if he attempted to give me a gift. As long as it was his own inventiveness, it was such an honored for me. However, regarding the type of gift, it was never in my mind to set a high expectation although a friend I had just known was known to be wealthy. Again, it was according to his or her willingness. Yet, the fact that this respectable Alpha seemed to love surprising me with either about himself or things he did, such as these two thing, protecting me from a far and offering a medium-size mansion to me impulsively. He offered it to me as if one mansion worthed the same as a pack of cereal. In fact, Xavier as my husband never gave me a memorable g
Bastian POV I thought that every obstacle I had faced would bring me and Margie a peace. However, my expectation fooled out. It brought me into the most important state in my life. I was sure if I was held by Moon Goddess because I had to sacrifice one thing from the choices she would give. I furrowed my eyebrows and said, "Please, don't beat around the bush. I need to return to my fated mate soon, Goddess." "All right." She inclined and sighed. Then, she continued, "Between your wolf and Margareth. If you choose your wolf, you will be hospitalized in a comma state. It means you will return with your wolf once it recovers." "What if I choose Margareth instead?" I rose my left eyebrow, wondering what kind of consequences I would take when I chose the love my life. Would it be the worst decision ever? With her calm expressions, the elegant figure in her dusty pink c
As the time passed, at another circumstances, Selena arrived at the gate of Brown Iris Castle. Before she got off from Richard's car, the Gamma observed the area around the castle, including the inner view of it. Then, he said, "I guess there is no one in there. Are you sure you want to return? Isn't it better to stay in my apartement?" Selena stopped from rolling the door knob and replied, "In fact, I really want to stay with you forever, Richie. Believe me, I'd love to do it, even without your order." "Why don't we return then?" Gamma Richard got her left hand and kissed it gently. "Richie, I do this because of that sh*tty Alpha, Xavier. If I were in your place for three days, he would come and confront you. Do you want it to be like that?" Selena stared at him deeply as she uttered. She knew that her lover attempted to make her stay longer. "No problem for me. If it is possible, you may file a divorce decree to him. Just state that he does harmful things to you." Richard
Margareth POV "No, I'll not leave you here!" I uttered with the tears peeking in my orbs. I could not let him harm himself for my freedom from here. He had done so much thing for me, and it was too good to be true for me. "It's not the time to get stubborn, Margie." Bastian said while blocking and returning the punches from the safety guards in turns. I inhaled carefully, tried to calm myself although it didn't really work. With the bravery gathered in my heart, I told the others, "Let's get out from here!" "Okay!" The rest of them answered. Therefore, they fled while Bastian was fighting. Yet, deep inside my heart, my worriness to Bastian grew larger. I was afraid if he was injured and unable to survive. Around a few more minutes forward, we reached the ground floor. At that point, Xavier was held in his arms by Dave, the Alpha whom Jessie had crush on. "D*mmit! I should never let all of yo
Bastian POV "After our mission is accomplished, you can ruin him. Let your wolf use its strenght maximally, if you want." Carter tried to help me in managing myself. I still sighed and inhaled carefully although Clement was not unstable. I was not surprised to find my wolf in unstable emotional state. He was known for being protective and attentive, especially when it was related to his mate and its owner. It might sound strange for other male wolves to know about this thing, but to me, it was a form of concern. He cared for me and Margie's happiness in sum. After that, the silence became our companion for another time. Only the noise of our foot steps and slides were talking, as if they barked at us for not being able to walk faster. The only reason for not so fast in walking for us was to make sure that no body would be suspicious and catch us for sneaking in basement area, especially Xavier.
Margareth POV The luxurious place changed into the cold cell in two days. It was caused by my disobedience to his requests and orders. With a small grin painted on my face, I sat on the cold floor, feeling proud of myself although I knew I had not smelled the freedom. For me, personally, it was better for me to be placed in this creepy place. Rather than obeying and acting sweer to my ex-husband, I preferred showing who I was truely. He might seize my neck until I met my last breath, but he may never forget how regretful he was for abandoning and rejecting me in the past. "CLING..CLUNG.." The noise of steel bars sliding to each other was perceived, distracting my mind and focus at the same time. Then, the sound of the foot steps followed. I guessed it might be Xavier or one of his minions. However, unexp
Another few days afterwards, Bastian and his two besties had finalized their set up planned situation. Yet, for Bastian himself, he didn't expect too high from the plan he had done with the two Alphas friend. It might sound a bit pessimistic for him not to set a successful target in rescuing Margie. However, what he truly focused on was saving and protecting his fated mate. Even if it would cost his own life, he would sacrifice it. Therefore, after he made sure that his appearance was like the cursed prince and the successful oil businessman, he got out from his room. From there on, his existence was greeted by several reactions of Carter and Dave. "Oh no, he reminds of the wolf in Little Red Riding Hood story." Carter said while managing himself not to laugh. He noticed that Bastian was slightly more sensitive after being trapped in his wolf for
Selena POV After I left Brown Iris Castle, I resolved to go to the Black Fur Pack by bus. The journey might be around one and a quarter hour, but it was finer than staying in the castle and bickering with the dumbest husband and Alpha. I knew I ever fell for him, and so he did. However, it seemed that I only wanted him for a short time being. From the recent perspective, I realized that I just obsessed with him since he had greater status than mine, as an omega, previously. In contrast to my feelings to Richard, I felt more open to him although he was just a Gamma of Black Fur Pack, my origin pack before I resided and got married to Xavier. Moreover, I could be myself more around him. I didn't have to show my sexiness too much, unlike when I was with Xavier. As I seated myself on the bus, the slight cold air from the air conditioner on the top kissed the tip of my head. At this point, I also noticed that the bus was not really crowded. There were so many empty seats around,
Xavier POV "CLING!" The little noise of the padlock hitting the steel bars of the cell was apprehended. Then, I put the key in my pocket and sneered at Margie, "Enjoy yourself behind this luxurious cage. I'll release you when you change your mind and decide to return to me and this pack." She stared at me flatly and responded sarcastically, "Thank you for letting me stay here. No matter how long I will be alive, I choose to die instead of returning to you and fall into your love trap. That's the silliest thing I really regret and do!" Feeling the fury of anger heating my heart, I could only inhale gradually. I tried to manage myself to her mind game. I understood why she did the sarcasm. She was so eager to rise my blood pressure. Whenever I really got mad, she would be happier, feeling that she had knocked me down mentally. After staring at her for a moment, I decided
Bastian POV With the deal we made, we all agreed not to use our off-roaders to trespass the area we were running on. Based on our own efforts, we all, in our wolf forms, ran and followed the guidance of the monkey leader. The noise of our feet swinging accompanied our journey to the witch's place. Even, the slides of the fallen leaves were clearly heard while I ran along with Carter and Dave. They were also in their wolf forms. However, I felt a bit distinct although I was also in my wolf form. The reason was I was in a maroon hoodie as I ran and passed the area, while Dave and Carter let their wolves naked and show the divine abs. They looked more like the natural shifters than me. I was like a pet with a fancy piece of clothes. For some moments onwards, the monkey leader stopped in front of the tree-style castle and said, "We've arrived." "Is this the place?!" Dave running after me and Carter reached as he inquired to the monkey. "Yes, it is. It is finished to show y
