Lahat ng Kabanata ng Stand-In Luna: The Alpha's Real Mate: Kabanata 41 - Kabanata 50

The night was unusually dark and silent.Rain poured heavily on the black umbrella above us.Under the umbrella, Nick’s handsome face was carved with frost. The pressure rolling off his body made the air around me cold and sharp. Alphas naturally released their dominance when they were angry. If I were not a White Wolf, I probably would have been on my knees already.We stood there in silence for a long while before he finally spoke, voice low and cold.“Is it because of Dane? Am I not as good as him?”Because of Dane?Where did that even come from?I was speechless.Turning my head slightly, I shot Nick a look. “Nick, why are you dragging Dane into this? You’re the ruler of Brown Pack, the current tribal leader. Don’t tell me you’re actually this insecure?”Without waiting for a response, I turned around and got back into the car.Nick’s expression darkened fu

We were quietly enjoying breakfast, the warm morning sun filtering in, when suddenly Nick’s phone rang, slicing through the rare moment of peace.His slender fingers tapped the answer button. His voice was low and commanding. “What is it?”Vic’s voice came through the other end. “Alpha Nick, we’ve located the worker responsible for maintaining the chandelier in the studio.”“Mm,” Nick responded with a brief sound from his nose.“There were three workers doing the inspection at the time. One of them has since resigned,” Vic continued respectfully. “According to the other two, the chandelier was checked by the man who quit.”“Look into him,” Nick ordered, his face darkening.As soon as he hung up, I leaned forward, unable to hide my urgency. “So? Any news? Do you know who did it?”Nick narrowed his eyes slightly. “Still investigat

The lighting technician looked at Nick with a questioning glance. Nick nodded slightly, his expression frosty, and said in a low voice, “Do as she says.”Seeing that Nick had agreed, the lighting technician immediately went to the switch panel and turned on the lights.First, he shone a beam of cold light onto the button on Bonnie’s back. Immediately, the button began to shimmer with a white glow.A moment later, the technician adjusted the lighting to a warm red hue, and the button’s color shifted accordingly, turning into a blazing red—as if a flame were burning on her dress.“It really changes color!” gasps of admiration rippled through the crowd.I curled my lips into a small smile. “As you all saw, because the moonstone button was coated with a special substance, it reacts to different lighting conditions and changes color.”“Alright, now please shine the light onto Bonnie&rsqu

⸻Daisy let out a long sigh of relief, her gaze toward me filled with gratitude.“Thank you, Wendy, for teaching me so much.”I gave a faint smile. “It’s nothing.”“Tomorrow morning at 9:00, be there on time. We’ll be shooting on location,” I said to both Dane and Daisy.“Wendy, are you free for dinner tonight? I can finally give you that information I mentioned last time,” Dane’s deep and crisp voice sounded, carrying a trace of anticipation.It was probably the Star and Moon Pack’s domestic strategic plan he wanted me to review.Just as I was about to respond, Nick stepped up beside me and wrapped his arm around my waist, his eyes sharp as he said,“She’s not free tonight.”His intimate gesture in front of Dane made me feel awkward; my face flushed involuntarily.Was he declaring his territory?But we hadn’t ev

The rain last night had made the mountain paths muddy. I was wearing high heels, stumbling forward step by step.For some reason, my thoughts drifted to Nick again.Didn’t he say he was going to come in person to supervise the shoot today? It was already past ten, and still no sign of him.Was he really with Rina last night?What exactly did the two of them do?How could he do this to Candy?Distracted, I walked all the way to the other side of Moon Lake, close to the depths of the forest. The scenery here was even more breathtaking—the glimmering lake, the surrounding mountains…Shooting here would definitely produce better results.I looked down, ready to call the photographer and ask them to come over—when suddenly a shadow flashed past, and a strong gust of wind rushed straight toward my back.I turned just in time to see Mary lunging at me with all her strength, trying to shove me into the l
