The Wrong Season for Love のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 8

"Awooo... Awooo..."The pack of wolves finally retreated from the cave amidst their pack leader's howls. However, they were far from satisfied.I huddled in the corner and kept trembling as I stared at the shredded pieces of my body, which were no longer recognizable as human. It seemed as though I could still feel the pain from just before I died.I stood up cautiously and crawled toward the mangled remains of my body. In some naive, desperate attempt, I thought I could piece myself back together. I hoped that when the rescue team arrived, they would immediately be able to identify the victim as me. Or maybe, deep down in my heart, I didn't want my husband to see me like this—beyond recognition and torn apart by animals.Alas, when I reached out to touch the scattered chunks of flesh before me, my hand passed right through them and grasped at nothing. I stared, wide-eyed, at my opaque hand in disbelief before falling to the ground in despair.'It turns out that when one is dead,

Howard frowned and raised his hands high in an awkward attempt to create some distance between them. He said dryly, "You need to disinfect that wound immediately, or it could get infected. I'll go grab the first aid kit right now."As he tried to push Zendaya away, she wrapped her arms tightly around his waist. Her voice was sweet and mingled with an unmistakable hint of seduction. "I do not need bandages. You really do not understand what I mean? "All this time, never once did you feel something for me?"Look, Wendy isn't here. I won't tell anyone. It'll be our little secret between the two of us. Okay?"She stood on her tiptoes and was about to plant a kiss on his lips. However, he turned his head away to avoid it and carefully pried her arms off him. He was about to explain when the shrill ringing of his phone interrupted him.He quickly answered the call, and without even having the time to utter a word, an urgent voice came over the line, "Captain, we have found two bodies i

As soon as the number was dialed, a sudden screech of brakes jolted the bus, and Jimmy's phone fell on the floor.Zendaya, taking advantage of the abrupt stop, quickly leaned down and hung up the call. As I regarded her frantic, disheveled state, I couldn't help but suspect that my death had something to do with her. I had no solid proof. Still, actions would always leave traces. Hence, I could only wait for the day when justice caught up with her.The vehicle pulled into the rescue team's compound. The director of the Exploration Department, Thomas Puden, rushed over almost immediately. Before Howard could even get out of the vehicle, Thomas blocked the car door, his sharp eyes scanning every face inside the vehicle. His expression darkened as his gaze finally settled on Howard."Where are my men?" Thomas demanded, his voice low and dangerous.Howard stiffened, and he lowered his head to explain, "When we got there… It was too late…"Thomas grabbed him by the collar, his voice

The investigation results from the Exploration Department were finally out. Alice was afraid that someone might try to cover up for Zendaya. So, she grabbed her phone and enlisted the help of several influential online personalities to livestream the entire process for the world to see.Zendaya's connections within the upper ranks of the Exploration Department were murky at best. She had been promoted to become my immediate boss and had authority over the selection of exploration sites and personnel assignments.To eliminate me, she deliberately reassigned all the other team members, leaving me vulnerable. Her original plan was to send me to Mount Kina alone. However, the Exploration Department had strict rules. No one could enter the mountains solo, and a minimum of two people was required. That was how Andrew ended up as the unlucky one to join me.To ensure that Howard wouldn't rush to rescue me, she climbed halfway up Mount Evei at the same time, intentionally cutting her arm wi
