Chapter 6

Author: mountain
Over the next two months, I learned a lot from Nathan and experimented with all kinds of designs.

Then he told me I was ready to work independently. He wanted me to spend the next two weeks focusing on my competition entry.

I even rented my own place so I could focus completely on preparing for the competition.

Two weeks later, the night before the competition, I showed Nathan my entry.

The sketch showed two white gowns, both far more regal and elegant than the one I'd once owned.

  • The Gown That Was Never Mine   Chapter 9

    Moon Shadow Fashion began expanding into smaller packs. Because Margot knew I had once belonged to the Snow Moon Pack, she asked me to oversee the expansion there.I agreed on one condition."I'll only handle the company side of things. My assistant can deal with the Alpha."When we arrived at the Snow Moon Pack, crowds lined the streets to welcome us. My father stood at the far end of the street, smiling as he watched our line of cars roll in.He looked at me with tears in his eyes."Are you coming home?"I paused, then said, "I'm here for work. That's all. I'm not coming home."His eyes reddened, but he nodded solemnly."All right. Having you back in the pack, even for work, is enough."Once my assistant finalized the arrangements with the Alpha, I began recruiting and promoting the new branch.I posted job listings online, had the storefront decorated, and displayed my work on the largest sign.The piece was The Favorite.Vivian came in on the first day of hiring."I saw the job pos

    After returning from the Moon Shadow Pack, my father hardly spoke to Vivian or Bella. He barely even saw them.He hung the gem-covered gown in his office, where he could see it every day. Looking at it made him think of me.He threw himself into work and devoted all his energy to strengthening the pack, desperate to escape the memories.From then on, he never favored anyone again. Even in pack affairs, he became fairer than ever.The Beta tried to reassure him. "Lily's just upset right now. Once she cools off, she'll come back."My father admitted he was at fault. "I'm the one who was wrong. She has every right not to come back."She isn't angry or holding a grudge. I kept pushing her away until we became strangers."After forcing Vivian and Bella to apologize, he stopped trying to bring me home.Vivian ended her bond with Caleb. They were no longer mates.It wasn't because Caleb had stopped loving her, nor was it because of my father's reaction. Guilt consumed her every day, and she c

  • The Gown That Was Never Mine   Chapter 7

    After the competition, Margot, the company's director, personally offered me a full-time position and promised another promotion within six months.I said yes.I now had my own office and an assistant.I designed one piece after another, and most of them were well received.Time flew, and my life had never felt so fulfilling. Then, two months later, everything changed.I was in the middle of a new design when my father arrived at the Moon Shadow Pack with my sisters.They were waiting at the main entrance. When the receptionist notified me, I set my work aside and left my office.The moment they saw me, they hurried over."Lily, you've lost weight." My father looked me over with concern. I was full of energy, but still petite. "I brought your sisters to see you, and I brought you some supplements. Take them home and take care of yourself."Then he took a gift box from Vivian, his voice heavy with regret. "This is your gown. I set 18 snowflake gems into it for you."He saw I was about t

"Why does one look stunning while the other looks so plain? Side by side, the plain one fades into the background."I shook my head."They're the same gown, aren't they? One simply has no gems to make it shine. That's how two identical gowns can look completely different.""What's it called?" Nathan asked.I traced the outline of the plain gown, the one that faded into the background, and answered softly, "The Favorite."On the day of the competition, I stood backstage among the other conte

    From then on, I spent my days training under Nathan. He personally taught me different design techniques and gave me plenty of time each day to study on my own.My sisters occasionally tried to reach me through the mind-link, but I never let them in.One night, an unfamiliar number called. When I answered, I heard Vivian's voice. "Lily, please come home. Dad has been on edge for days. He's worried sick. He ordered everyone to tell him the moment you return."You can't cut off your entire family just because you're angry with us."I looked down at the new design on my desk. Every line was clean and beautiful."I never abandoned my family."There was just never a place for me in it. So there's no reason for me to go back."Vivian burst into tears. A moment later, Bella snatched the phone from her."Lily, I'm begging you. Please come back. Dad keeps shouting at me, calling me immature and useless."At last, I understood why she wanted me back so badly.Whenever they made a mistake, they u

    The sun was rising when I reached the walls of the Moon Shadow Pack.The guards checked my identity at the gate, gave me directions to the company, and waved me through.I stared up at the enormous glowing sign that read "Moon Shadow Fashion Headquarters." The whole area was bustling and prosperous, far beyond anything the Snow Moon Pack could ever dream of.I messaged the person in charge of the assessment. A man soon walked out through the doors."Hi. Lily Frost, right?""That's me.""I'm Nathan Wells. I was the one who approved your assessment. Come inside. It's freezing out here."He led me to a meeting room and brought me tea and pastries."Your designs are good. They look a little rushed, and some details need work, but overall, they're impressive."He set another plate of pastries in front of me. "Have you ever studied fashion design?""No. This is my first attempt. I've just paid close attention to clothes."I shook my head. I wasn't sure whether that answer would hurt my chanc
