  "Gloria, why are you crying?" Patrick sat up and reached out to hug Gloria.

  Gloria pushed him away subconsciously. Feeling that she was wrong, she explained, "I had a nightmare."

  Patrick breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Don't be afraid. I'm here."

  He tucked her in and hugged her with the quilt.

  Gloria fell asleep again in his arms.

  Perhaps it was because she was too tired. This was the first time she had fallen asleep next to Patrick in the past few days.

  Patrick's deep gaze rested precisely on the fruit knife in the corner, and he then lowered his eyes.

  He turned off the light, lay down, and wrapped Gloria in his arms more tightly.

  Patrick had to deal with three important things.

  The first was to find out the truth about Gabrielle's death. Second, he needed a child to keep Gloria by his side. Third, the villa was under a strict security system, and he needed to find out who gave the bottle of contraceptive pills t

      Alex suddenly fainted. When Alex's subordinate told him about this, Patrick was suspicious for a moment. However, as Alex was getting old, he was getting weaker. Plus, he had health issues over the past few years. Therefore, Patrick was no longer so suspicious.  "Drive faster," Patrick sat in the back seat and urged.  Sweat beaded Hank's forehead. He was fully focused on driving.  Soon, Hank stepped on the brakes.  "Alpha Patrick, we're here." Just as Hank finished his words, Patrick pushed the door open and got out of the car.  Patrick got the location from Richard, Alex's butler, and quickly headed to the emergency room.  "Alpha Patrick, you're finally here." Many people were waiting at the door of the emergency room.  Patrick glanced around and his gaze rested on Richard. "How is my grandfather?"  "Alpha Alex is still in the emergency room," Richard said, looking worried. However, he then lowered his head and was lost in thought.

      Damon's strange behavior made Leonard suspicious. Leonard glanced at the documents and pushed Damon away, who was about to pounce on him to snatch them back. He asked again, "What are these?"   "Nothing!" Damon sounded nervous.   "Then why did you come to Alpha Patrick's study at this time?" Leonard didn't believe what Damon said.   According to the rules, he was not supposed to read this document. However, other than being suspicious, he was also curious about what could make Damon so nervous.   Leonard pushed Damon with one hand while holding the document with the other. He didn't intend to read it and only tried to scare Damon. He said, "Why can't I read the document? What is it about? If you don't tell me, I'll read it now."   However, Leonard glanced at the documents from the corner of his eye, and his expression immediately turned serious.   He ignored Damon and scanned the document.   Damon rushed toward Leonard and shouted anxiously, "No!

      Gloria clenched the phone in her hand and hesitated. But soon, the hesitation in her eyes was replaced by determination.  She changed her clothes and went downstairs. She checked Kevin's expression. He didn't seem suspicious and she felt slightly relieved.  In fact, she was taking a great risk. If Kevin mind linked Patrick, she would immediately be exposed.  Fortunately, the Moon Goddess blessed Gloria.  Kevin probably did not expect that she would use such a way to deceive him.  Gloria was glad that she didn't get Kevin suspicious before. Meanwhile, she cheered in her heart that she could leave Patrick soon.  Gloria waited in the living room. After a while, Christine's car stopped at the door.  Gloria walked to the car and said to Kevin, "Beta Kevin, I forgot my lipstick on the table. Please help me get it."  The more naturally she acted, the less vigilant Kevin would be.  "Okay, Luna Gloria." Kevin nodded and left.  Soo

      Camille took Gloria's documents out and complained lovingly, "Why are you in such a hurry? Don't you trust us? It wasn't easy for Alger to get those papers done because he couldn't let Alpha Patrick's suspicion."  Camille looked kind at the moment, as if she was a loving mother.  Christine heard Camille's words and had complicated feelings.  Gloria only asked Camille for her certificate, yet Camille had to have Alger's permission for it.  They still didn't treat Gloria as their daughter.  Gloria took her documents from Camille's hands. She no longer cared about Camille's pretentious love. It was nothing but harsh and ironic to her.  She glanced at the driver's license and put on a self-deprecating smile.  The name on the driver's license was "Gloria Hammond", and that was why Alger was able to hide it from Patrick.  Gloria chuckled. She tried hard to suppress the bitterness in her heart and asked Alger, "Why is it Hammond?"  Al

      Camille trembled. She grabbed Alger's wrist tightly, and the veins on the back of her fair hand were visible. There was a trace of reluctance in her eyes. She said with a trembling voice, "Alger, are we really going to do this? Gloria is our daughter!"  "Do you think I want to do this?" Alger grabbed his hair in frustration and roared impatiently, "What else can I do? Gloria is also my daughter. If not for the fact that I had no other choice, how could I be so ruthless?"  "But..." Camille was still hesitating.  "Camille, remember, everything we do is for the Silver Spring Pack! People may think that we are a strong pack, but you should be clear about the current situation. Do you want to see our pack decline? I won't let Harry inherit such a Silver Spring Pack! Moreover, what's the point of living a life the way Gloria does? She doesn't even have a wolf. So, in a way, we are helping her to end her suffering."  Ethan carried Christine into her car. Alger's w

      Patrick's eyes turned colder. "I don't have time to waste with you. Listen up! Gloria is my mate. As long as I am Alpha, she is the only Luna of the Black Thorn Pack! If I hear that you don't address her as Luna again, I will make you leave the pack no matter what my grandfather says!  "Tell me, where is Gloria now?" Patrick asked with anger.  Ever since Christine joined the Black Thorn Pack, she had never missed Patrick's mink link.  Moreover, Gloria had not called him and told him that she was going to the Silver Spring Pack today. She went there behind his back, yet she and Christine lost contact with him.  If Alex had not fallen unconscious suddenly and was sent to the emergency room, or if Patrick had not seen through Alex's fake illness, he might not have associated Gloria's missing with Alex.  Gloria had an accident in the Silver Spring Pack, and Alex stalled Patrick in the hospital. It couldn't be a coincidence.  Patrick pursed his lips.

      When Patrick confronted Alger, Gloria was woken up by a bucket of cold water in an old warehouse.  A lamp hung from the ceiling, and, perhaps from bad contact, was flickering.  Gloria slowly opened her eyes and was blinded by the dim light above her head. She wanted to raise her hand to block the light, but she could not move. She looked down and found that she was tied to a chair with her hands behind her back.  "You finally woke up!" A familiar voice suddenly rang out.  Gloria looked over and then laughed. It was hard to tell her emotions.  "How come you are still laughing!" Damon was infuriated by her laughter.  Gloria was much more composed than Damon had expected, and Damon could not tolerate it.  "You slut! You are a vicious murderer!" Damon roared angrily. "If not for you, Gabrielle would not have died! It was all because of you that she was raped by those rogues! You damn bitch!"  Gloria's expression was calm, and she looked

      "How can you do that?" Gloria questioned Damon angrily.  Though Gloria hated Gabrielle, she still found it hard to believe that Gabrielle was killed by Damon. She had thought of all kinds of possibilities except for that.  "Why?" Gloria looked at Damon. "Why would you do such a thing? I thought you cared for Gabrielle deeply."  She was not seeking justice for Gabrielle. She just couldn't accept it.  Before she was twenty years old, she had lived a carefree and luxurious life. After that, her life was nothing but torment.  She had experienced the best and worst in the world.  So, Gloria thought that nothing in the world could shock her anymore. But she was wrong. Today, Damon stood in front of her and told her without any remorse, "I killed my sister and then framed you."  She had been wronged for three years, and she had to figure out why!  Damon wouldn't do this only because he wanted to frame her. It didn't make sense.  "Why?

    Clarissa watched Luana's fingers tighten around the phone until her knuckles whitened. "When I first saw those messages flooding in, I tried luring him out myself—posed as you, planned to bring the cops. But instead of catching a creep, I got..."She trailed off, the memory of the man in the café still prickling her nerves.A man as cold and heartless as Cline—why would he cling to memories of Luana like this?"Anyway," she shrugged, "he never showed. Guess some ghosts stay buried."Luana's voice was a whisper. "These things... they should've been my fight. Not yours."Clarissa cut her off, "If it were me in this mess, you'd do the same. So quit with the thanks already."Luana nodded meekly, her lashes drooping as she glanced back at the phone screen.The mystery gnawed at her—Mr. Night's messages reeked of obsession, yet he hid in plain sight. Why?She couldn't fathom it, and frankly, didn't care

    "I had no choice but to pull a dumb move—I seduced Gehrmann and took Naomi's spot as his bedwarmer," Clarissa said flatly, her voice echoing off the brick walls."I thought I could use him to get back at Cline. Turns out I was dumber than a bag of hammers—Gehrmann wouldn't lift a finger against Cline for any woman." She kicked at a pebble, watching it skitter into the shadows. "By the time I figured that out, he wouldn't let me walk away."Clarissa shifted her weight, catching Luana's profile in the dim light."But don't you worry, Luana. I ain't falling for Gehrmann's charm. This world's got exactly one good man left—Albion. And he's six feet under."So, I won't be that girl anymore—the one who pours her heart out for every little kindness, even when it's not worth it."Mentioning Albion again made Luana's eyes dim as if the light behind them had been switched off.She lowered her lashes, hiding the sorrow pooling th

    Third Person's POVLuana tightly embraced Clarissa, hoping to alleviate her pain.Clarissa, however, patted her back with a smile and said, "It's alright. After finding out the truth, I was devastated for a while, but then I pulled myself together. I installed surveillance cameras and recorded every moment of their infidelity, which I sent to my lawyer."I won the lawsuit, but I couldn't get the house back. I could only recover the mortgage payments, the money I spent on him, and compensation for emotional distress..."However, what I didn't expect was that someone would expose Albert's bigamy online, ruining his reputation. His company fired him, and no other major firms would hire him. As far as I know, his current salary isn't even enough to cover the mortgage. Plus, his mother has cancer, which is why he keeps begging at my door."Clarissa's voice turned cold as she continued, "He thinks I'm still the naive woman I once was, that if he kneels a

    Clarissa took a deep breath, opened the bedside table, and took out a marriage certificate, handing it to Luana."You two weren't entirely meant to miss each other. At least he kept his promise from when you were young and married you."Seeing the marriage certificate, Luana's eyes welled up.She reached out and slowly unfolded it...Name: LuanaName: AlbionBeside them was a composite photo of the two, dressed in white shirts, with a red background, their faces beaming with happiness.When Luana was eighteen, she had asked Albion, "When are you going to marry me?"Albion, engrossed in a book at the time, looked up and playfully tapped her nose with his pen, saying, "When I'm capable of giving you happiness."Luana pouted, dissatisfied, "But when will that be?"Albion held up his book and replied, "After I've mastered all this knowledge and become someone worthy, then I'll marry you."Luana rested her chin

    Last time, it was her negligence that failed to keep Albion by her side. This time, she was determined to do everything in her power to protect Luana.Clarissa raised her hand and gently patted Luana's shoulder, hoping to offer some warmth.Time ticked by, and they remained in the same position until a man in a gray suit approached.Clarissa looked up at him, noticing his gaze fixed on Luana, and her tension grew.Before she could inquire about his identity, the man stepped forward and gently pushed Luana's head with his slender fingers."It's ten o'clock. It's time to go home..."Luana, recognizing Dorian's voice, didn't lift her head, her lifeless eyes fixed on the floor.Dorian frowned at her silence, then bent down slightly and spoke patiently, "Dorothy, come home with me."Luana raised her weary head and said, "I don't want to go home today..."She wanted to stay and support Clarissa, to quietly live for herself for

    She couldn't believe it. Even with the news reports and Clarissa's own words, she still refused to accept it.Albion, the gentle and considerate young man who had cherished her, how could he have taken his own life in such a tragic way? It was impossible.Luana shook her head in disbelief. "No, he wouldn't do this..."Clarissa stepped forward and embraced Luana. She felt Luana's body growing cold, and her heart ached."Luana, I don't want to believe it either, but..."Clarissa's words trailed off, tears streaming down her face.Three years ago, fearing Albion might do something rash, she had followed him to the cemetery.There, she found no sign of Albion, only bloodstains on the tombstone.Her unease grew as she searched for him, but he was nowhere to be found.The next day, the news reported that Coburn Group's CEO, Calvert, had committed suicide at the cemetery.Only then did she realize Albion had truly done s

    "Clarissa..." Albert wept and pleaded, "My mom has cancer, I got fired from my job, and the baby still needs milk. For the sake of our years together, treat me like a beggar and spare me a little help.""If you were truly a beggar, I'd give you some money to send you on your way, but you're not..."A clear voice cut through the air, tinged with exhaustion, coldness, and a hint of ruthlessness. "You're nothing but scum!""Clarissa!""Gag him and get him out of my sight!"At the command, the bodyguards immediately seized Albert and shoved him into the elevator."Humph, this despicable man!"Luana followed the voice and spotted a familiar figure leaning against the bar.The woman had a slender figure, waist-length curly hair, and fair, slender fingers holding a slender cigarette, while her other hand toyed with a wine glass.She tilted her head, staring into the red wine in her glass, as if observing another world from afar

    Upon learning of this possibility, Cline simply said, "Thank you," and hung up the phone.He gazed once more in the direction the black luxury car had vanished, now more certain than ever that Dorian had taken his Luana.However, he refused to believe they were husband and wife.Russell arrived with the bodyguards in a hurry, seeing Cline standing in front of the smashed Bugatti.Thinking Cline's car had been in an accident, he quickly approached."Mr. Moriarty, are you alright? Did you take too much sleeping pill and start hallucinating again?"For the past three years, Cline had been plagued by insomnia, clutching two mementos of Luana and struggling to sleep through the night.Russell, worried about his health, had obtained some sleeping pills from Eva.Little did he know, Cline had become addicted to them. Later, Russell found out that the medication could induce hallucinations when taken in excess.It was these hall

    Cline's brow twitched, his eyes filled with disdain as he regarded Dorian.He strode quickly to Luana, extending his hand with an unyielding tone, "Come with me."Before Luana could refuse, Dorian swiftly acted, his long arm encircling her shoulder and pulling her tightly into his embrace. A provocative smile played on his lips as he challenged, "On what grounds?"Cline's vision sharpened with pain, witnessing Luana clinging to Dorian, their bodies pressed close. A surge of rage erupted within him."Because I love her!"Cline's voice trembled yet rang out loud and clear, eight years of pent-up emotions bursting forth like a flood breaking its dam.Dorian, noticing the bloodshot eyes and the fervor in Cline's gaze, felt a flicker of realization. He glanced down at Luana in his arms.Her expression was calm, a faint smile curling her lips as if she had just heard an absurd joke, detached and indifferent.Not only did Dorian not l
