Mark a She-Wolf Who Cares のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Cain Beckett's newly-promoted secretary, Vera Anderson, threw a thick stack of documents on my desk. She smiled and said, "Alpha Cain needs this report as soon as possible, Leah. Thanks for doing it on such short notice.""Alright," I said calmly, nodding as I accepted the documents as I always did.However, it seemed that Vera wasn't done gloating yet. "Alpha Cain and I have hunting training later, so you can just leave the report on his desk when you're done. Oh, and don't forget to clean his room before you leave. You're better at it than the maids, after all."She turned after she was done speaking and took her leave, looking thoroughly pleased with herself.The other wolves in the pack looked at me with sympathy shining in their eyes. Unfortunately, none of them knew how to comfort me.Everyone knew that although Cain was my intended mate, he showed favoritism toward Vera. He was the one who brought her back to the pack, and he was also the one who broke tradition and allowed

"What are you looking at?" Cain asked.I was so engrossed in reviewing information about the Northcliff pack's that I hadn't noticed him walk up beside me.He took the document from my hands, flipped through it carelessly, then tossed it back to me. With a scoff, he asked, "Why are you looking into the Northcliff pack?""No reason," I replied lightly, putting the document away. "Did you need something?"In the past, I would've been thrilled whenever Cain sought me out of his own volition.He was momentarily stunned. An uneasy expression crossed his face. Perhaps he hadn't anticipated that I would treat him with such indifference."Yes. Vera's performance has been spectacular recently. I'm planning to promote her to be my Beta. It should motivate the other wolves in the pack too. What do you think?" Cain asked, looking at me.Although he seemed to be seeking my counsel on the surface, I knew that he wasn't actually interested in my opinion. He was simply informing me of his decis

The air seemed to freeze.Cain's expression morphed from bewilderment to disbelief before finally settling on a fury that I had never seen before."What did you say?" he hissed in a low voice that rumbled from his chest.I looked at him calmly before saying, "I said that I want to end our relationship. I'm also leaving to join the Northcliff pack.""Have you lost your mind?" Cain demanded, grabbing my wrist.I couldn't help but frown at the immense pressure of his grip."Do you even understand what you're saying, Leah? You're my future mate! A member of the Southglade pack! Do you really believe that the wolves of the Northcliff pack will accept you?""I'm no longer any of those things," I retorted, pulling free from his hold.I then pulled out the withdrawal application form that Cain had signed from my pocket and unfolded it in front of him. "You signed this yourself a month ago. You didn't even bother looking at it before you approved my request to leave the pack."Cain's e

Ella hugged me when I stepped into the Northcliff pack's territory."Welcome back," she said with a smile.I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.Although the wind in the Northcliff pack's territory was frosty, I felt really warm for some inexplicable reason.The Northcliff pack's and the Southglade pack's territories were completely different.The Southglade pack's territory was warm and humid, and there were dense forests and bubbling creeks everywhere.Meanwhile, the Northcliff pack's territory stretched out in endless plains and mountain ranges as far as the eye could see. The winds that swept across the land were always chilly.However, the wolves of the Northcliff pack had a certain ruggedness and sincerity that the wolves of the Southglade pack lacked.Ella took me to meet the Alpha of the Northcliff pack, Cole Carter.Cole was tall and broad-shouldered, with a faded scar running from his forehead to his cheek. His dark gray eyes reminded me of the winter sky in the N

All eyes turned to me.I mulled over my thoughts before saying, "Alpha Cole's right. The Rogues won't stop after seizing control of the Southglade pack's territory. If we don't help the Southglade pack, we'll be the Rogues' next target once they become stronger."However, we're not going to help the Southglade pack for free," I continued. "They'll have to compensate us for taking back their territory for them. For example, we can demand control of a part of their border or ask them to sign a defense pact with us."The corners of Cole's lips curled up into a small smile as he looked at me. "Excellent ideas."He stood up and said, "That's what we'll do. I'll lead a team to negotiate with the Southglade pack.""Let me go instead," I said, standing as well.Cole was momentarily stunned. "You?""I'm familiar with the Southglade pack's territory and Cain," I explained. "I'm the right wolf for this."Cole stared at me for a long time before nodding. "Okay. Take a few wolves with you.
