I furrowed my brows, secretly making up my mind—if Alpha Nick had any bad intentions, I wouldn’t hold back. I wasn’t someone to be messed with!

“Check for yourself and see what you dropped,” Alpha Nick said, his tone sounding oddly amused.

I blinked in confusion and glanced around. That’s when I realized the undergarments I’d brought to change into were missing!

Oh Moon Goddess!

They must’ve slipped out in my rush earlier.

Did Alpha Nick pick them up?

I felt my face flush as I tiptoed to the bathroom door and cracked it open just a sliver, sticking my head out. “Uh… I dropped something just now—can you give it back?”

Alpha Nick’s eyes darkened slightly, a mysterious curve tugging at his lips. His well-defined hand extended toward me. “Be careful next time. Try not to drop anything else.”

“Thanks!” I quickly grabbed the item from his hand but accidentally brushed against his fingers in the process.

His palm was hot—scorching, even. My cheeks went up in flames as I hurriedly slammed the

  • Stand-In Luna: The Alpha's Real Mate   Chapter 30

    “Little bear, let me hug you.”In my dream, I was cuddling a teddy bear. Then I turned over and instinctively hugged something beside me. It was so warm, and it smelled so good.Then—I lost consciousness.The next morning, sunlight filtered through layers of sheer curtains, casting a gentle glow across the large bed.The brightness made me squint, and I slowly opened my eyes.What came into view was an opulent crystal chandelier.Where… where am I?I jolted upright, looking around in panic, and only then realized—I was in Alpha Nick’s bed!Oh my god.What the hell happened last night?I rubbed my temples. The fog in my head started to clear.I remembered Alpha Nick took a knife for me. I brought him back, and after dinner, he went to shower.Then what?What happened after that? Why can’t I remember something?Why am I in his bed?There were only two people in the house last night: me and Alpha Nick. If I didn’t climb into his bed on my own, that means… he brought me here?I hurriedly

    I could only use one hand to support Alpha Nick while the other fumbled around in his pocket for the key.Alpha Nick let out a low chuckle. “Where are you touching?”“Sorry!” I snapped out of it, completely embarrassed. I quickly apologized and changed directions to search for the other side.I didn’t know what was wrong today—even the key seemed to be working against me. I searched for ages and still couldn’t find it.Anxious, I started rummaging wildly in his pocket, but the more anxious I became, the harder it was to find anything.“Alpha Nick, where exactly did you put the key? It’s not in here!” After a few minutes of struggling, sweat started to bead on my forehead. And he was still leaning all his weight on me!Alpha Nick reached out with his uninjured left hand, guided my hand from one pocket to the other, and said with a low, amused voice, “It’s on this side.”“You—!” I rolled my eyes dramatically.He’d clearly pointed to the right pocket just now.That devious man must have

    Mary fled in panic—what awaited her now was a lifetime imprisonment in the Werewolf Prison.But I had no time to think about her. I quickly turned to check Alpha Nick’s injuries. “You’ve got a cut on your hand. We need to disinfect and stop the bleeding immediately.”Alpha Nick winced but pointed toward his car. “There’s a first aid kit in my trunk.”“I’ll help you to the car.” I glanced at his leg, and guilt surged in my heart.If he hadn’t jumped in to save me, he wouldn’t have gotten hurt.Even though, honestly, I didn’t need to save at all.Still, I helped Alpha Nick sit in the car and get the first aid kit from the trunk.Inside were basic emergency supplies. I pulled out some alcohol and cotton swabs and carefully began cleaning the wound.I leaned in and gently blew on the cut. “This might sting a bit. Try to bear it.”Alpha Nick, as if acting on instinct, reached out to hold my hand.I thought he was losing patience, so I quickly pinned his hand down. “Don’t move. I’m almost d

    Night had fallen.Most of my colleagues had already left the office. Only I remained, buried in my work.At some point, I realized the entire floor was empty again—except for me.I stared at the computer screen, carefully working through a report, when a shadow suddenly loomed over me, engulfing me completely.“Who’s there?” I looked up, alert.And I met the impossibly handsome face of Alpha Nick.He wore a crisp white shirt, sleeves rolled slightly, the overhead lights casting a golden halo around him, making him look noble, otherworldly.“Alpha Nick? What are you doing here?” I asked, surprised.He gave a slight, serious smile. “Just checking in on the progress of ‘Rose Under the Moonlight.’”I blinked, confused. Sure, the Lady Fashion line was a key design project, but the Brown Packhouse had far more important ventures than jewelry. And regardless of a project’s importance, it was always someone else reporting to Alpha Nick—not the Alpha himself coming down to the secretary depart

    The janitor took out a voice recorder and pressed the button. From it came the voices of two werewolves in conversation.“I’ve already transferred $250,000 to your account. Once it’s done, I’ll send you another $250,000. With that money, you can finally treat your pup’s illness. You want him to grow up healthy, don’t you?” The voice of the young female werewolf was unmistakably Mary’s.The janitor’s voice was laced with nervousness and excitement. “That’s… a lot of money. What exactly do you want me to do?”“It’s simple. You just need to swap out Wendy’s documents,” Mary said calmly.“But… what if I get caught?” the janitor hesitated, his tone uncertain.“Don’t worry. Just pretend you’re doing your cleaning rounds when no one’s around. No one will notice.”Mary let out a light laugh. “Besides, you’re a janitor—three grand a month. Do you know how many years it’ll take to earn half a million? After it’s done, you can quit and lay low in another country. When things settle down, just fi

    When Alpha Nick showed no expression and his eyes sharpened, Mary quickly averted her gaze.“I don’t know what nonsense you’re talking about,” she said, pretending to be annoyed. “I’ve got things to do, Wendy. The meeting is over, and I don’t have time to waste with you.”With that, she turned to leave.“Stop right there!” I raised my voice slightly, my tone cold and sharp. “What’s the rush, Mary? Feeling guilty?”“Guilty? About what?” Mary’s hand was trembling, though she tried to keep her composure.“Because you’re the one who had the design stolen and replaced!” I cut straight to the point.Mary’s expression changed subtly, and she quickly defended herself. “Wendy, please don’t throw baseless accusations! Do you even know what defamation means?”“Defamation?” I gave a cold smile. Of course, she wouldn’t admit it so easily.But no matter how she denied it, it was nothing more than a desperate struggle.I was fully prepared. Today, I was going to bring her crime to light—completely a
