All Chapters of Stand-In Luna: The Alpha's Real Mate: Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

Wendy's POV"Move? Fine, let's go. You can do whatever you want, play however you like." The man in the red shirt eagerly reached for me.I slammed my heel into his foot. He yelped in pain and loosened his grip.I spun around to leave, but he wasn't done. He grabbed my arm, pulling me toward him. "Tonight, you're mine!"Bam!I snatched up a nearby bottle and smashed it against his head.Blood gushed instantly."You little bitch! You've had enough, huh?" The man, known as Seven, hadn't expected my sudden counterattack. His eyes gleamed with murderous rage. "Do you know who I am?"I lifted the bottle slightly, a cold smirk curling on my lips. "I don't care who you are. Now, scram."The music on the dance floor roared on, everyone else lost in their own world, oblivious to the chaos in the bar's corner.Seven was notorious around here, a thug who preyed on young Omegas forced into prostitution to survive. Anything—or anyone—he set his sights on, he usually got. He must have mistaken me fo

Wendy's POVI glanced at the stack of test results the man held in his hand. It was hard to tell at a glance whether they were genuine or fake. Right now, the most important thing was to find out the truth.I spoke in a firm voice, "We will investigate this thoroughly. Until the investigation concludes, I hope you can cooperate. Why don't you go back for now? I'll send someone to verify the necklaces you purchased to see if there's truly an issue. If it's indeed our mistake, we will give you a satisfactory solution.""Of course there's a problem!" The middle-aged woman pointed at me aggressively. "Don't think you can stall. If you don't resolve this today, we won't leave!"I furrowed my brows, about to reply, when a cold, commanding voice cut through the tension."We will find out the truth and give everyone a proper explanation!"I looked up to see Nick walking toward me with calm, measured steps.As soon as the reporters noticed him, they swarmed over. "Alpha Nick, what's your take o

Wendy's POVI glared at Nick in annoyance. "No, I'm not!"Nick curved his lips into a faint smile, leaning close to my ear. His magnetic voice sent shivers through me. "Wendy, the reason I danced with Rina that day... it was to make you jealous with Dane."His warm breath brushed against my neck, making my heart flutter.Instinctively, I pushed him away, my chest tightening slightly...Was Nick... trying to explain himself?A strange warmth flickered through me. I took a deep breath, forcing my voice calm. "Dance with whoever you want. What does it have to do with me?"Nick's eyes darkened. His low, pleasant voice echoed near me: "From now on, I'll only dance with you."For a moment, I was caught off guard.But—I let out a slightly sardonic laugh. "And what about Candy? If one day she comes back, would you dance with her?"Nick fell silent.And bit by bit, my heart sank.His silence had already given me the answer I dreaded.I forced a self-deprecating smile. I'd known the truth all

Wendy's POVWhen I woke up again, I was lying in a hospital bed."Nick!" My remaining consciousness made me cry out instinctively.But no one answered.I forced my eyes open, and all I saw were the white walls typical of a hospital.Where am I? Why does my back hurt so much?Rubbing my temples, my mind slowly came back.I remembered—I had gone to the warehouse with Nick to check the raw materials containing radioactive elements, and then the warehouse suddenly exploded!Nick... had used his body to shield me.Nick...Suppressing the pain, I struggled to sit up. Just as I was about to get out of bed, the hospital room door opened. A young woman in a nurse's uniform walked in."Where's Nick?" I grabbed her, my voice urgent.The nurse tilted her head, as if she didn't understand what I was saying.Oh right... we're in France now. This nurse doesn't understand English.I repeated the question in French: "Où est Nick?! Qui m'a amenée à l'hôpital? Est-ce que l'homme qui était avec moi va bi

Wendy's POVAs soon as I turned around, a chill swept over me—Nick's icy aura was pressing in."Was what you said to Grandpa just now true?"Nick's brows were tightly furrowed, his face full of displeasure."You'll find out then," I said lightly, ignoring his irritation. "I already promised you—I'll give you an answer in two months."Just then, a knock came at the door."Lie down, quickly." I lowered my voice.Nick unhurriedly lay down, and I pulled the blanket over him.Opening the door, I found Jones standing there."Jones, what is it?" I asked.Jones glanced inside the ward, his tone laced with concern. "How's Alpha Nick doing?"Lowering my gaze, I heaved a deep sigh. "Still unconscious.""What does the pack doctor say? When will he wake up?" Jones pressed.I shook my head, feigning sorrow and despair. "The pack doctor said... the chances of him waking are slim."The corn
