LOGINMike came back.He had had some wine. As soon as he walked in through the door, he made his way toward me."You're drunk." I shoved at him, but he didn't even budge. He stared intently at me with his gaze full of possessive obsession.I realized then that at that moment, he was completely sober. "Mike, get a hold of yourself. We're just partners working together!"He held my arm, then whispered in my ear, "No matter what, you'll always be my Luna."I tried to push him away. "Mike, we had a deal. We won't cross the line, and you won't force me to. You're going back on your word."The whole room fell silent.Mike had a dark look on his face. "I knew it. You're really leaving me."When he said that, he let go of me. He seemed a little defeated. "Lucia, you're a cruel woman. You've already forgotten about me, haven't you?""What do you mean?" I asked."Do you remember a pup from your childhood who always had long hair and covered half of his face with a cloth?" Mike's words broug
One day, I had just returned from the council hall when I saw Tilda and Phil walking toward me, arm in arm.Tilda said, "Luna, I've already asked for permission. I want to learn more about matters in the pack with you, too."Phil thought in his mind, [Before long, I'll drive both you and Mike out of this place for good.]I was shaken a little, but I suppressed my emotions. "Alright. Come here tomorrow, then."I was doing it on purpose because I wanted to find out what they were scheming.The next second, Tilda thought, [Just you wait. I'll destroy every one of you soon enough!]She had no idea that I could hear her thoughts.I knew she was doing this because the two of them were plotting a scheme, but I wouldn't let them have it their way.Soon, I took action.I went to Phil behind Mike's back. I knew Phil very well, and I was aware that he liked obedient women.I deliberately dressed to catch his eye and said to him, "Phil, I like you."He seemed interested. "Luna, aren't y
On our way to the council hall, I tried to figure out Mike's thoughts, but I couldn't glean anything from him.When we arrived at the inner hall, we saw a foreign merchant standing inside. By the looks of it, the two parties were negotiating a deal for a herbal formula.I heard the merchant's voice in my mind. [Good thing I asked around beforehand. The Pierson pack is filthy rich. The formula is worth several hundred silver coins at best, but this time, I'm going to charge an absolute fortune.]The merchant, Jack Hart, didn't bat an eye as he asked for a price of three million silver coins.Mike didn't respond.Striking while the iron was hot, Jack continued, "Alpha, this formula will easily give you a tenfold return."Mike didn't say anything, and Jack thought he was going to agree to the deal.I stepped forward. Picking up the herb samples that came with the formula, I gave them a sniff. "I often tend to our pack members' injuries, so I know a thing or two about medicine."Yo
Some time after we entered the dining hall, Marcus walked in.He was just about to take his seat when his gaze suddenly fell upon Tilda.Before anyone noticed, Tilda had already moved her cutlery to the side closest to the head of the table.According to the rules of the pack, only the Alpha and Luna were allowed to sit there.Phil's expression shifted."Who allowed you to sit there?" Marcus asked.Tilda was bewildered. "I'm Phil's mate. What's wrong with sitting here?"The look on Marcus' face darkened. "You don't have the right to sit there. If you don't know the rules, you can learn them, but you have to know your place."Tilda's face turned red, then went pale.I lowered my head and ate some soup. I wasn't surprised at all.In our previous lives, when I first joined the Pierson pack, I knew right away that there were lots of rules in place. Ever since then, I made sure to remember everything I should never forget.I had no one to depend on, so if I wanted to have an easi
The next morning, Mike was shirtless while he did his strength training.As I lay on the bed, I couldn't help but sneak a couple more glances at him. He had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and his abs were quite toned."Have you had enough of looking?" Mike suddenly asked.I hastily averted my gaze. "I'm not looking at you."Mike chuckled, but he didn't tease me further. "Get ready. We're having breakfast together."He was willing to bring me along and be seen with me, which sent a clear message that he hadn't sidelined me, his Luna, at all.Actually, after spending some time together, I discovered that Mike wasn't as terrifying as the rumors made him out to be.At the very least, he proved to be much better than what the rumors said about him in my previous life.I quickly washed up and followed Mike out the door.We had just gone out when we saw Tilda and Phil walking toward us.The two were holding hands, and they looked quite intimate with each other.I noticed red m
Mike sat down on the edge of the bed with his legs slightly apart as he rested his elbow on his knee.I straightened up on the chaise lounge.I had already suffered enough in my previous life. This time, I didn't want to leave my life in anyone's hands anymore. "I know what you're trying to do at the border."As soon as I finished speaking, the look of indifference on Mike's face disappeared.Right after that, his dominance aura bore down upon me with overwhelming force.He didn't leave any room for compromise.Even before my wolf could react, it was forced to the ground as it let out a fearful whimper.I could hardly maintain my kneeling posture.At that moment, I was even certain that Mike would kill me.I suppressed the urge to let my wolf surrender. Lifting my head, I spoke in a hoarse voice, trying hard to quell the trembling, "Since I'm bold enough to mention it to your face, you know very well that I won't stab you in the back. I won't tell anyone, nor will I stop you.
