My eyes were wide open. I wasn't that crazy to accept her duel challenge. If I accepted the challenge, both of us would be shrouded in a transparent veil where no one else could interfere until one of us died. But why would I do that? Why would I hurt someone who is a member of my pack?"I, Luna Celestial Dawn pack, Ruby Maverick, refuse a life-and-death battle with Erica Rainer."Her eyes darkened. She walked around getting closer to me, and at the same time, I took a few steps back."Think calmly. Don't involve your anger in this matter. Death is not a trivial matter."For now, I'll try to calm Erica down first. Perhaps she was angry because she had lost the delicate debate between us during the meeting. Her pride is probably being hurt."Cut the crap and just face me this time!" After finishing her words, Erica transformed into a wolf. Her wolf had brown fur mixed with gray with piercing eyes. There was no other way.

"Summon all your strength!"The loud thud as the instep touched the hanging object broke the silence of the forest. My hands and feet lashed out aggressively toward the target."Your speed is still lacking! Strike fast and hard!"Successive fists and kicks were delivered by bare feet and hands at the heavy bag. It continued to be toyed with to move around according to the owner's wishes."Don't get out of line! Treat the heavy bag as an enemy!" Zacharias shouted.A week had passed since I fought with Erica. I never saw that woman again. But I continued to monitor news of her. I'm Luna of the Celestial Dawn pack. Of course, I know almost everything the pack members are doing.Erica has been well punished for her crimes against me. Although I think restricting the Rainer family's movement for the next three generations is a very severe punishment, it is no more severe than death.The law must be enforced. I am slowly pract

Beta's statement loosened my legs. I was made to take a few steps back until Zacharias caught me. I looked at the Alpha Kings in turn and concluded."We have to search one more time," I said as I stared at the two thick books in my hands. I recognized one of them. It was a book that contained recipes for concocting potions. It was the book my aunt used often when she practiced her potion-making skills.The cover of this book had even stuck in my memory."Mobilize all warriors to search for Mrs. Hawthorne! With the exception of the border guard warriors," Zaire ordered, which Beta immediately understood."Yes, Alpha!" Beta bowed his head for a moment before disappearing from their sight again."Do you want to look for her too?"Zephyr's question snapped me out of my long daydream. I nodded briefly, then we quickly shifted places by sharpening our senses.The sound of my footsteps made its way through the entire pack. My h

A soft moan sounded. The sky was still dark when I tried to wake up from my inadequate sleep. The pain was felt along my stomach, waist, and back, but I jerked it away by sitting up.A tired-looking face, like a canvas painted with pale colors. Slightly messy hair with a touch of puffiness on the lips. That was my state reflected in the mirror not far from me.My eyes still felt heavy, fighting against gravity that wanted to pull me into dreamland. With slow movements, I tried to put the arm of the burly hand wrapped around my stomach to move. But the owner of the arm woke up."It's still night, do you need anything?" asked Zephyr in his husky voice. He immediately sat up. He was the most sensitive to movement during sleep compared to Zaire and Zacharias."I need to pee," I said very quietly. I doubted he could hear it.Zephyr rose to his feet. He spread his arms in front of me. I quickly got into his arms. My legs were wrapped around his waist and my arms were around his neck. He sta

The anxiety that the conversation with the Alpha Kings had sounded like a test had now faded. I was very grateful when Beta came to break the tense situation between us. The people concerned, namely my husbands, had left due to business matters that had to be dealt with immediately. Yet another problem came my way. With pursed lips and a sharp look, I stared at the bowl of porridge before me. No, more precisely at my trembling hands.My body had been negatively affected by being laid up for a whole week. My hands couldn't hold the spoon properly, and my body still felt stiff as a statue.The sound of the spoon colliding with the bowl was once again heard. I let out a long breath. Casting my eyes around, I only found Adam standing by the door. I stupidly shooed away all the servants and nurses. I felt uncomfortable being the center of attention."Adam, can you come closer?"Within seconds Adam managed to teleport. The speed made
