Ulysses's povIn my years of experience, most werewolves have not reacted well to seeing me with Phoebe. They either screamed and cursed or panicked and fainted, except for that strange werewolf Klaus.Oh, perhaps that girl with green eyes could also be considered a bold werewolf.As for those black-clad guards, though I didn't know who they were, judging by the royal patterns on their weapons, I realized it was best for me not to appear in front of them.Thank you, Klaus, I thought, for making me fulfill the duty of a good friend.Honestly, if this chaotic scene hadn't happened in Klaus's castle, I would have preferred to sit down, drink my favorite red tea, and listen to the screams of these people while reading through a potion notebook, rather than just standing in the shadow of a pillar in the corridor waiting for them to leave.Phoebe was more irritable than usual. Probably because lunch wasn't served on time today, it intentionally vented its temper on these wingless werewolves

Emilia’s povBefore I turned eighteen, I never imagined I would experience days like this."Maintain your elegant posture!" Veronica's voice rang out from behind, and my body immediately tensed.I gritted my teeth, silently reminding myself that this wasn't nap time.It's four in the morning now, and the entire estate is shrouded in darkness, but this room is lit. Veronica's household, along with the maids, gather in this room every day at this hour, waiting for me.This room is special, tucked away on the far left of the estate, small and devoid of any furnishings. There's only one window situated near the ceiling, letting in little light, making the room cramped and dim. It should have been a storage room, but now it's where I receive my daily training."Veronica, I have a task for you." A few days ago, Klaus brought me to this room to meet Veronica."Of course, Alpha. Serving you is my duty," Veronica's face showed no expression."Very well, you are truly a worthy steward sent by t

Emilia's pov"We're here." The carriage came to a stop, and Anthony informed us.I stole a glance outside. Through the window, I saw a lush landscape, with green grass covering the hills and dark forests in the distance, interspersed with scattered houses.I didn't know where we were or why Klaus brought me here, but it was the first time since becoming Klaus's slave that I had seen anything beyond the castle. I couldn't deny feeling a hint of joy.Klaus was talking to Anthony. "Is everything ready?""Yes, please rest assured, Alpha. Everything we need is prepared.""Good, you may leave now, and remember to keep this confidential.""I understand, Alpha," Anthony nodded and left.I watched Anthony's departure with some unease because it meant that for the next while, it would just be Klaus and me alone."Come out, Emilia," Klaus called out to me. He took a lead rope from the servant and approached me with a horse that seemed somewhat familiar.It was a sturdy horse wearing a bronze mas

Anthony's povOn the way back to the castle, my mind was consumed with the Alpha's decision to send Emilia to the palace.Indeed, from what I know of the king, he's not pleased because Klaus refused to marry Princess Cecilia. However, due to Alpha Klaus's prestigious status among the werewolves as the first alpha, the king has been tolerant of him. But now that Alpha Klaus has taken Emilia from Alpha Ron, who is currently trusted by the king, I worry about the king's future attitude toward Klaus.I pondered Klaus's predicament. Perhaps he's sending Emilia to the palace to regain the king's trust. But why does it have to be Emilia?That girl with the green eyes. Moon Goddess, who could have guessed my surprise? Almost from the moment I met her, I suspected she was the heir to the Borin family lineage. Emilia's face is almost identical to her mother's, Linda, except for those Borin family trademark eyes.Memories of that night many years ago flooded back to me. Mike Borin happily announ

Ulysses's POVThe room was empty, filled only with bookshelves and glass vessels reflecting the light.I lay on the floor, surrounded by my manuscripts on magic. I stared blankly at the ceiling, feeling bored.So dull. Without Phoebe's voice, the whole magic castle seemed terribly quiet.The doorbell rang suddenly.I immediately sat up, ran to the fireplace, and settled down comfortably. With a snap of my fingers, a cup of fragrant tea appeared in my hand."Ulysses," the flames in the fireplace suddenly flared up, and Klaus's voice came through."Ah," I sighed disappointedly, thinking someone else was going to talk to me."Ulysses," Klaus's voice continued from the fireplace, and I lazily replied, "I'm here, Mr. Alpha. Your loyal friend Ulysses is here to listen to your troubles. Feel free to speak.""Ulysses!" Klaus's tone grew serious, "What have you done?! Why does Cecilia keep running to my castle? She's always asking about you!""Oh, Cecilia? Does she miss me?" I set down the tea
