All Chapters of He Postponed Us, Now He's Paying the Price: Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

Our Pack followed an ancient law: if a she-wolf wasn't bonded by the age of 23, the Pack had the right to assign her a mate, regardless of her will.Felix is my childhood sweetheart and fated mate, the Alpha of the Moonclaw Pack.But he postponed our bonding ceremony and is holding a mating ceremony with an Omega first, all because of that law.Felix pitied Omega, Valentina, who was already 22, afraid she would be matched with a bad mate.But he seemed to forget that after waiting for him for 5 years, I would turn 23 next month.My mother and I begged him to reconsider our mating ceremony only to be met with Felix's dilemma attitude: "You've waited this many years, what's a little longer?""Besides me, who else would choose Valentina? Clara, you still have parents, but Valentina is poor; she only has me.""Please wait, after the mate bond ceremony with Valentina, I'll break it and then bond with you."Later, in order to prevent me from bonding with a slave, my mother hurriedly chose a

Instinctively, I clenched my fists, not wanting him to see my wretched state.I had stumbled and bumbled along this path, my once perfectly styled hair was now messy and disheveled, and my face, wet with tears, was pale. I looked completely lost.I don't know if Felix saw me throw the bark into the water with my own hands. Maybe he did, but I suppose he wouldn't care.I endured the sadness and desperately told myself that this was the last time I would shed tears for this man.Felix looked pained, which made me momentarily think he still had feelings for me, but then he said, "You heard everything I said， Clara. Valentina needs my protection. She is our friend, we should help her out. I want to mate with her first. But don't worry, I'll mate with you too. You're still my only Luna.” Looking at his condescending face, full of charity, I suddenly felt a sense of clarity.So, this is the man I've loved for five years.I said, "I will not mate with you and I won't leave the Pack.”Felix

I drowsily fell asleep leaning against the mating ceremony car, and only realized we had arrived when I woke up.A big hand opened the car door and extended towards me.I hesitated for a moment before gently placing my hand in his.The man led me out of the car. I was a little nervous and stumbled, stepping on my own dress, and almost fell, but luckily, he was quick to react and caught me.I was held securely in his arms. His strong hands gave me a sense of security.A low chuckle reached my ears. I felt a little embarrassed and tried to walk carefully, suppressing my shyness.My father once mentioned this mate to me. It's said that the man is called Atticus, the Alpha of the Lupusvigor Pack. He's known to be gentle and kind with a good reputation. I just don't know why he would choose me.Powerful families in the Lupusvigor Pack all want their daughters to become this Alpha's Luna, but he always says they are not his fated mate, so he has never bonded.My father said, "His family

Felix's movements were extremely fast. He was already strong, and the sudden drawing and swinging of his sword would be impossible for an ordinary one to react to!I was so scared that I screamed, but the blood I imagined didn't appear.Instead, there was a crisp sound of impact. Atticus had drawn his sword and blocked Felix's sword.Felix was clearly stunned. He frowned, instinctively raising his sword to stab again, but Atticus was faster. With a flick of his hand, the sword pinned Felix's hand to the table.Felix immediately let out a scream. Atticus looked at him coldly, then his gaze fell on my face.At that time, I was frightened by Felix's ferocity and worried about Atticus being hurt, so my expression must have been extremely unpleasant.Atticus, afraid of scaring me, dropped his stern expression toward Felix and gave me a gentle smile."I'm fine, don't worry."His tone contained no joy at his narrow escape from death, only reassurance for me.I looked at him, feeling touch
