The days easily passed by for Anna as she spent her time visiting Hilda in the mornings and nursing Hunter back to health in the evening. She realized that she was feeling much better emotionally and mentally with her balanced routine. Although she missed Kodiak very dearly, she kept herself preoccupied with the new fabric store she had opened at the corner of the street. The business had been slow with barely any orders coming in at first, but it was now doing well with the help of her friends, Catherine and Vivian who joined the business. Through her frequent visits to the cabin, a beautiful friendship blossomed between her and a savage wolf she had saved at the border of the pack. As she spent more time with him, she began to realize that Hunter was not nearly as frightening as she had initially thought. Rather, he was simply awkward and unsociable around strangers. As their bond grew, Hunter began to share his story with her. He explained that he had once been a member of a pac

The situation at the tailor shop grew more intense with each passing minute as Evelyn whipped out her phone from her bag and started dialing a number to call. Vivian appeared by Anna's side and gripped her arm nervously, “Anna...I think you should end this matter quietly. If you want, I can take the blame for the dress and apologize on your behalf. It's no big deal!”“Why? Does she hold a special position in the pack?” Anna was a bit flustered to see her friend this anxious so she couldn't help but question the girl's identity. After all, Vivian was the daughter of a pack elder so she had no reason to be afraid of her. “Not only her, her whole family does. Evelyn's father died saving Kodiak's father during a pack fight so he left a will behind stating that each member of her family will have a special privilege." Vivian enlightened her in a hushed tone.“What's the special privilege?” “One wish. Evelyn could demand anything from the alpha of the pack, anything except his position. D

Giselle had spent the entire day preparing for her upcoming wedding with the help of her friends. However, while she was on her way to the flower shop, she saw a couple walking on the opposite side of the sidewalk who looked familiar. She decided to greet them and crossed the street with a bright smile on her face. "Hi, Hilda! I didn't expect to see you here. Is this your husband?" "Giselle, you saw him on the night of the Joyous Moon Festival. There is no need to pretend that you don't recognize him." The Iron Crest Luna rolled her eyes without restraint and crossed her arms when she heard her words. Ever since she stayed in the alpha's house and became Anna's friend, she had personally witnessed how malicious and pretentious the woman was so she was not interested in getting along with her. After all, she knew that Giselle secretly looked down on submissive wolves so that only meant she was here with no good intentions. Giselle's face was flushed red with embarrassment and rage whe

Kodiak stood frozen, his eyes locked on the retreating creature as it disappeared into the dense foliage of the forest. His heart raced with a mix of fear and anger, knowing that his woman was being dragged along the rough ground, her limp body bouncing off twigs and dry leaves with every step they took toward the pack territory. The primal urge to let his wolf take over and chase after them was overwhelming, but he knew better than to lose control at this critical moment. He clenched his fists and tightened the leash on his wolf, forcing it to submit to his will and await a more opportune time to strike.Knox came to his side right after Anna and the creature disappeared into the forest. He told him, “We have managed to retrieve Jasper's body that was found deep in the woods and sent him to the pack physician's house. We also searched the cabin and found out that a savage wolf seemed to have lived here for a while. The groceries in the fridge and the other stuff that we saw in the ca

As Anna and Kodiak approached the border of the pack territory, Kodiak shifted back to his human form and gently guided her toward the main town. With each step he took, Kodiak felt an uneasy sensation building up inside him. Suddenly, he stumbled, almost losing his balance, as he sensed a strange tingling at the base of his neck. The sensation was like nothing he had ever experienced before, and it left him feeling both curious and apprehensive.He glanced around his surroundings, searching for the source of his discomfort but he didn't find anything. Anna noticed his strange expression and asked him, “Kodiak, is everything alright?”He did not respond for a while because he was not sure about the apprehensive feeling in his heart. His wolf could sense the presence of another person stalking them but he couldn't see the person. “Anna, you should go ahead first. Go to my house and don't come out of your room until I get there.” He warned her.Anna's intuition kicked in and she became
