Bastian POV
In just fifteen minutes, the mojito I ordered was already in my hand. Then, after I sipped it a little, I began to tell them, "She leaves due to Harper's impulsive behavior." Dave widened his stares and inquired, "What is the relation between my sister and your fated mate? Are they competing or what were they doing??" Then, Carter joined by saying, "Well, there is an unrecuited love in this matter, or maybe love triangle." "Carter is true. As I already told you guys, Harper has a thing for me for years, but I never consider her as a lover or more than just a friend." I recalled the facts I ever shared before to them. The shocking expression clearly painted on Dave's face changed into suspicious, signalling that there must be the cause on why Harper could behave impulsively. In that case, he asked for another time, "Wait, didn't you tell her before, about your feelings towards her?"Around a couple of minutes later, Harper with her sweaty and wet face attempted to pour the rest of the vodka in the bottle to the glass, but it was stopped by Eleanor. The blonde girl then said, "That's enough already!" "But, it's just a little sip more. I need to finish it." Harper said with her puffy eyes. It was caused by her tears as she cried a few minutes back then. She cried due to her hopeless romantic love story with Bastian, her crush. However, Eleanor feeling pity with Harper's condition grabbed the glass and the bottle by force in order to stop her friend from sipping the rest of the liquor. "That's already too much, Sist. Let's go home now since you are really drunk," She commanded as she helped Harper to stand still. "No, no. Why should we head back, hm? Take me to Red Iris Mansion, can you??" Harper babbled as she obeyed to put her left arms around Lea's shoulder. "You are drunk, Sist! How ca
Meanwhile, Margie was at Mr. Nikhil's office. The lawyer werewolf who also owned a branch office in Brown Iris Pack firstly showed the soft copy of the divorce paper to Margie. "Please check the details stated in the paper carefully, so that if there might be mistakes, I could fix it." He ordered. "Wait for a few moments." Margie darted her grey orbs to the screen carefully. Even, she read it in silence so that she could understand its detail perfectly. In less than twenty minutes, she found that every sentence and clause stated in the paper was right. Then, she resolved, "Fine. This paper can be printed and signed." 'All right. Thank you for the cooperation. Now, let me print it first." Nikhil nodded and started to process the document. In a few seconds, the electrical device made the noises as it pulled and wrote on the blank paper prepared. Once it had been finished, Nikhil informed, "First, you need to sign in th
Margareth POV As I prevented him through the reminder, my grey orbs were in the staring war with his reddish brown Iris. It was pretty obvious that his wolf, Eldrich, was not so happy with the rejection and the bad rumor known by the rest of the pack members. I could sense the anger of him since he was still in love with my wolf, Emma. However, it didn't affect my decision to be separated from Xavier. In that case, I assured him by saying, "Can we talk inside? It's not comfortable to have a discussion here. Other people may hear us." "Right." Xavier agreed. While I stepped inside the castle, Xavier asked me to sit at the living room. After that, I immediately took out the divorce paper and explained, "Based on Mr. Nikhil's instruction, you need to sign this paper before the council process and accept it." Xavier just nodded in his silent mode. He then took the pen I gave and signed the divorce pap
Margareth POV "Let's have a fight in the forest." Jessie said as she got on to the car and started the engine. I frowned and inquired, "Is that what they want? Why can't we have a discussion instead? I'm afraid that we can't beat them. The red hair woman looks strong enough to make us collapsed." "It's not her having beef with you, Margie." Jessie uttered. Then, she continued, "It's her friend who has a trouble instead. Don't forget to remind your wolf to stand by." "Seriously. It's useless!" I whined. "Just face the music although you are not a well-trained she-wolf." Jessie cheered me as she sped up farther than the green car at the back. I could see it through the rearview mirror. -**- "KRIK!" The sound of dry leaves was heard once I got out from the car and stepped on the dry leafy ground, at the centre of the forest. At the same time, Harper just arrive
Margareth POV I slowly opened my eyes as I felt the sunlight kissed my skin. Then, I looked around the grassy ground along with the bushes and the trees. I realized that it was not the forest where I was fighting with Jessie last time. "Where am I? It's such a grassy land with the air breezing towards my skin. Am I died already?" I pondered as my orbs kept checking the peaceful surrounding where a few of butterflies and other insects could be noticed. As she pondered, the tall woman with curly brown long hair appeared from the back and said, "No, you are not died. You are under my care." "Moon Goddess? Is this really you?" I frowned with a doubt in my stare. The woman with emerald iris eyes was smiling at me and extended her hand as she said, "Welcome to my private land." I just accepted her hand and did the hand shake. Then, I replied, "Anyway, I really feel gratitude because your blessing towards my
Bastian POV When the time was around 11.30 a.m, I decided to have a break at the cafetaria with Beta Ashton. While I have opened a can of espresso, the blonde guy in front of me started the conversation, "I never see you behave like this, Alpha. It's very rare." I sipped the black and bitter-taste liquid and replied, "What do you mean by, Ashton?" "I mean with the other women, you don't really put much concern towards them. They were known to be charming either, but they didn't seem to attract you." Beta Ashton stated the fact that made me remember about a few years back, when my parents were busy matchmaking me with other random she-wolves. I smiled a bit as some moments from the past memories appeared in my brain. I realized that I was pretty desperate in finding his fated mate, so I agreed whenever my parents tried to matchmake me with the random she-wolves. Yet, it didn't go well like what they ever
Bastian POV I really prepared a few things to impress Margie, either she was still fainted or in awaken condition. However, the most hateful scene appeared as I stepped inside the VIP room. The Alpha who had rejected and betrayed my fated mate came, as if nothing happened between them. That was why I asked him rudely. Moreover, I also asked him to leave the room because I was afraid if he would harm Margie physically or mentally for another time. Nonetheless, after I casted him away, he replied, "Well, no need to over possessive towards her. She and I haven't attended the court for finalizing the divorcing process. Another fact, she needs to give up her title in the modest ceremony." "But she needs more rest now. Just look at how exhausted she is." I found a good reason to make him leave although it might not the best one. "All right. I give up this time, just because I don't want to hear a pup barking for being
Looking at the interaction between his Alpha and Margie, Beta Ashton observed the intense gaze done by Bastian to the she-wolf. At that point, he concluded that his single Alpha gave some clues on courting Margie although it was not really clear. "I guess it's just an initial state of courting the ex-Luna. However, if he intends to do so, I don't really mind about it. As long as he is happy, I will feel the same way since he has been alone for quite long. In other words, I can say that Alpha is not a player type." Beta Ashton pondered. Then, during the silence between them, Doctor Carson along with a nurse entered the room and said, "Excuse me. It's time to check the patient." "All right. Here she is." Bastian walked backwards and let the doctor do the medical check-up. Once the check-up for heartbeat and eyes done, the nurse followed it by checking the blood pressure using the manometer. "The blood pressure is norma
The information received by both Margie and Bastian resulted on different reactions. Margie looked shocked, while Bastian was chill with it. With the state fact, the she-wolf stood up and asked, "Can't his wolf return soon? His integrity as a top-tier Alpha will be ruined if his pack members know that their Alpha cannot shift." Then, the Doctor darted a glance at her and replied, "It is not about he will return soon or not. It is more about his wolf demands for healing himself. Last time, the fury creature decided to take over his body, and he turned out to be a beast outside." "Doc, please help my boyfriend! I'll pay no matter how much it is, but please make his wolf return from the resting pace." The she-wolf immediately begged. She felt guilty at the same time for causing Bastian's wolf to be resting in no exact time. In that case, the doctor grinned bitterly. He also shook his head a bit and claimed, "I'm sorry before you get offended by my words, but his wolf may return if
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
