"I don't do business with monsters!" Mino sarcastically exclaimed, glaring fiercely at the lady with a thin cloth covering her face. "So was I with a pathetic human," Vreihya grumbled angrily. They both despised one other's kind because, in their own views, they were both monsters.

My wolf was cursed. I had three days left. But my parents and my mate, Alpha Edwin, forced me to surrender my Luna title to Meggie. All because she claimed a curse was killing her, too.

I need to get Benedict’s ticket!” This time, I smiled and said, “Go ahead. Be careful on the way.”

I then became the perfect Luna for my Alpha husband, still hoping I could win his affection one day and we would be real husband and wife.

However, neither my husband nor my father cared enough to help me. In my despair, I made the decision to stop being the docile girl they wanted me to be.
