LOGIN~Vixen~I needed Vaelor.But he was no longer by my side, rather standing between Kael and I.I couldn't care more about what they were saying, I just needed him with me.I held my temple, trying to steady myself.“Lady Vixen,” Nathan whispered beside me. “Please don't think of staggering at this moment. Alpha Vaelor can cut off my fingers for merely touching you.”I removed my hand from my temple, giving him a side glare.But he met my glare with a serious expression. “I'm not kidding. I'm just here to do my job, not to lose my life.”It's surprising to see Nathan finally scared of someone.That meant Vaelor was well… being Vaelor, threatening every soul in this banquet.Suddenly the devil himself came to hold my hand like it was a routine activity, temporarily leaving me dumbfounded.As much as I didn't want to admit it, I've missed this.Holding his hand.With our hands intertwined, it felt like the world started to make more sense.I held his hand tighter, and he gently caressed m
~Vaelor~For some reason Vixen couldn't hear me.I tried reaching out again and again.Hasn't she realized we've bonded already?I studied her expression from across the hall.The attention on her has subdued, all eyes now on Kael, but she still looked troubled.She wasn't bothering masking her emotions with a cold face anymore. Her forehead wrinkled as she held the side of her head.Something was wrong.I could feel it.Her thoughts were crowded, intertwining with each other.She was overwhelmed.It wasn't good, especially in her condition.I wanted nothing but to take her away from here.But that would be too impulsive.This was her moment.She was getting her long awaited revenge. I couldn't take the spotlight from her.Just then, I saw her wearily shut her eyes, by her movements immediately noting she was about to stagger down.Damn the spotlight.I've stalled enough.Within seconds I sped through the crowd, grabbing her waist midway before she hit the ground.Kael immediately sto
~Vixen~Kael tried to threaten me with his very own son.That was how pathetic and desperate he was.That was his only card left to use against me.He wasn't aware I was always prepared.Though I can't take Paul back with me, I had to ensure his safety.I rehired his previous nanny, putting her on my payroll.Every expense to be made about him would be handled by me.I couldn't entrust Paul entirely to Kael. It was a risk I wasn't willing to take.My head couldn't fathom why a sweet child would end up with two horrible people as parents.He couldn't choose his parents, but I would make sure I choose him, even if I did it indirectly.He wouldn't be left with nothing.He wouldn’t end up like… me.As the insults to Kael increased, Nathan came to my side.“Lady Vixen,” his eyes went to the bloodstained Kael, sitting on the banquet floor. “What happened? Are you okay?”I gestured to the kind guests in black suits that were behind me.“These nice guests protected me from that devil.”His ey
~Vaelor~Anger.That was what Vie was feeling.I know that because I could also feel it now.Confronting Kael must have raised buried emotions.She was doing a good job curtailing the anger.Her words were cold and calculated, with an impassive face that seemed devoid of emotions.Her revenge wasn't coming in the form of a scream or tears, but it's a silent, surgical removal of Kael's dignity.I thought she was merely doing this to clear her name and reveal the truth.But in reality she was truly hurt.Not because she cared for Kael.But because Pure Moon was the first place she got a sense of freedom, away from her abusive parents.It was a place she thought she could start over and live the life she truly wanted.She never truly loved Kael.She just saw him as a tool for her freedom and clung to it, doing everything she could to elevate the pack.But he betrayed her within a blink of an eye.All her hard work and sacrifices she made suddenly seemed useless because of Kael.And worst
~Vaelor~I stood at the back of the hall, away from the spotlight and buzz of the banquet.I was doing a good job keeping a low profile.Only a few individuals have managed to recognize me tonight.And seeing how no eyes were darting towards me, they kept the information to themselves.I swirled the champagne in my glass cup as everyone watched the spectacle before them.“Why do you think I would fall for your trap once again?” Vie calmly threw the question at him.She was unbothered about his horrified face. In fact it seemed it encouraged her.“Is that a yes?” I heard the fool ask. His voice was faint as he wasn't holding a microphone, but my sharp ears could pick every bit of their conversation without even staring at them.“No,” Vie answered mercilessly, without any care in the world. “I'll never get back with you.”I lifted my eyes to see Vie as my lips curled into a satisfied smile.That was my wife.That was my very beautiful, brave wife.I knew she would reject him in the most
~Vixen~The entire hall became silent, the atmosphere tense as all eyes fell one, awaiting for my response.I brought the microphone close, breaking the suspense. “Why do you think I would fall for your trap once again?”I could see his shoulders deflate, face falling, but he quickly masked it up.“Is that a yes?” He had the guts to ask, pretending he didn't know what I meant.“No,” I answered firmly. “I'll never get back with you.”The hall was suddenly overtaken by gasps and murmurs.The press came closer, photographers taking several pictures of Kael being rejected, videographers coming closer, almost shoving the camera in Kael's face to capture his expression.The box fell from his shaky hands, the ring clattering to the floor.He immediately stood up, stepping close to me.“Vixen, what are you doing?” He whispered, his voice trembling. “This wasn't the plan. This– You can't suddenly do this.”I took a step backward but he followed suite, gripping my arm with force as he drew me c
