Hearing the man's voice, I trembled with fear. I raised my head and saw those blue-gray eyes.I tried to get rid of him and walk around the other side of the Billboard, but he grabbed my jaw. He stretched out his legs and trapped me inside.I kept begging, "please let go of me. You've got what you want" I shed tears because of fear, and my voice trembled, "You have destroyed everything about me. Why do you still try to find me?"The man pressed my hand against the wall, and the way he looked at me made me feel terrified. It was like a beast staring at the prey in his hand. He seemed to be greedy for the smell of me. He lowered his head and sniffed gently at me. Soon, he seemed to calm down, but I felt the grasp on my hands was strengthening.He pinched my wrist, and my bones seemed to be about to break. I could feel that he hated me, even though I didn't know why.He came close to my ear and said in a low voice, "Don't hurt my sister again. You know, as a werewolf, I can kill you eas
Lawrence POVMy name was Lawrence Willow, the Alpha of the werewolves.Since I was a child, I had been dependent on my sister Stella, who was also an Alpha. But unfortunately, Stella fell in love with a Beta. The man's name was Logan, and he was a betrayer.I only learned about Logan and Eleanor at that time. Logan had another woman outside and forced Stella to divorce, making my sister feel pain. To teach Logan and that woman a lesson, I came to the company where they worked and taught that woman a lesson.But something was really weird-Why did I smell the scent of my mate on her body? I clearly heard that she said she's a human. And from her strength, I made sure that she couldn't be a werewolf. Because of that scent, I couldn't help being close and touching her. What happened between us?When I was about to leave, I smelled my sister's scent. So, I returned to Logan's company and saw my sister enter his office. Her face was covered with tears, and her hair was messy. She should ha
Eleanor's POVI returned to the company and stood in front of the company's stairs. Then, I looked at the empty company with some hesitation. I could only carefully go up the stairs. I wished Stella and that insane man had gone."Eleanor!"I was suddenly patted on the back. I was terrified. It reminded me of being forcibly taken away in the underground parking lot.I turned in horror, but it was just my colleague, Harley Johnson."Harley?" When I saw my colleague's face, I was a little relieved. "Why are you still here?"It was not working time, and he was the warehouse dispatcher of our company. Generally, he should have gone home from work long ago. Well, Harley was a very warm-hearted man with golden hair. He was still in his twenties. People in our company liked him very much.Harley answered my question calmly, "Mr. Buster said that the company has some discarded cartons for me to take away. He asked me to wait for him here. So, why are you still here, Eleanor?"I hesitated but
Lawrence POVI felt that my body was burning as if it was melting by magma. My unconscious thoughts made it difficult for me to judge and know where I was. I just relied on my physical instinct and followed my favourite taste to find there.I hugged and kissed the woman in my arms. I was still thinking about these days. I met Stella before I came to the apartment to look for Eleanor.Since Stella made things worse, Logan was furious, resolutely divorced her, and moved out of their home.When I went to find Stella, Stella had been sitting at the door waiting for several days. His husband didn't come back and wouldn't answer the phone, but she still waited stubbornly. The nearby neighbours were worried about her condition, so they tried to contact me.Seeing me, Stella went a little crazy, "Lawrence, will you help me get Logan back? Logan was taken away by that woman again. You should bring him back to me as soon as possible."Stella's hair was in a mess. She didn't rest for a few days,
Eleanor's POVThe man scared me.I stepped back. Because the switch of the room light was behind me and touched by my back, the room fell into darkness instantly.Only the mobile phone that had just fallen to the ground was still shining, and Madison's voice came from the mobile phone again. "Eleanor, what's the matter with you? Have you been attacked?" Madison's voice was very worried, and her voice became louder and louder, "Eleanor, tell me, where are you now?"The man finally heard the voice on my phone and found that there was a woman on it. His original anger and danger seemed to have eased a lot.He let go of me, squatted down to pick up the mobile phone, hung up the video, and threw the mobile phone on the nearby table.I was upset and scared, "Please don't do this. She's just my friend. If I don't answer, she'll worry."The next moment, I was pressed on the wall by him. The man's hand groped on me. He lowered his head, smelled my smell, and made a light hum.He seemed a littl
Eleanor's POVI was stabbed by the light, closed my eyes, and looked at the door again. Logan stood there and looked at us in shock.I thought I should be ugly at that time Logan saw me. Just imagine that this man took my clothes off. He could only pull the blanket next to me to cover his upper body. He still rode on me. When he saw Logan coming in, he smiled indifferently, and even greeted him as if no one else was there, "Logan, you're finally here."Logan looked at me, and I found his eyes red. 'What does Logan think of me now?'Anyone who saw us now would know what had happened.Logan asked, "Lawrence, why are you here?"He walked around the room, close to us, but his breath was dangerous. I knew he was holding back his anger and waiting for an opportunity to attack.'Lawrence? Is that the man's name?' It was ridiculous that I didn't know that name until that moment.Lawrence got up from the sofa. I also took the opportunity to push him away, walk in the direction of the table wra
Eleanor's POVLawrence smiled, and his fingers touched me vaguely. "Logan, don't forget, I'm also a werewolf. I know what's on your mind. As a Beta, you are so weak, because Stella is an Alpha, which makes you feel inferior, so you find this human woman."His fingers moved to the back of my neck and suddenly grabbed my hair to show off the booty, "Human women are so fragile. They will worship you and look up to you. As long as your fangs bite gently, they'll die. You enjoy the feeling of controlling the whole situation, don't you?"Logan picked up the chair in the room and attacked Lawrence. Lawrence pushed me away, and I hit the table next to him.The werewolf was strong and fast. When they fought in the room; tables, chairs, and some simple furniture became their weapons, which were very fragile and vulnerable.Logan kicked Lawrence and Lawrence fell on the sofa. Logan came up to me and took my arm as if he wanted to take me out.But Lawrence was also very agile. He showed his fangs
Lawrence POVIt was two o'clock in the Vatican. I was injured and decided to come back home.I lived on the top floor of a luxurious building. There was a very wide balcony with sofas, tables, and some expensive furniture. I often liked to sit there and watch the rising sun and sunset and the busy people under the building. I didn't have to rush for life like those people because I had enough money.I sat on the sofa to deal with the wound. Logan's sharp claws made a terrible blood mark on my arm, but I didn't need to worry because werewolves were born with the ability to self-healing. I believed everything would be perfect in a few days.While dealing with the injury, I noticed a shallow scratch on my arm the woman named Eleanor left. The woman's cry, begging, and fear came to my mind. I thought of my experience in the underground parking lot. It seemed to be the first time for that woman, but I was a little rough.I felt a bit uneasy. I found the woman to teach her a lesson and ta
Lawrence's POVThe days following my arrival at the wine estate were dull, and I seemed to have returned to my old life. Taking care of the company's business every day and accompanying Uncle Nathan to meet his business partners. He trusted and relied on me a lot. Perhaps because his son Parker was just an ordinary werewolf and I was an Alpha, he relied on me more than Parker.My presence made him seem very happy even though I had refused the invitation to join them in attacking the hunters. I hated Madison, and I hated the hunters who had taken Eleanor away from me. But I couldn't hurt them because I knew that Eleanor cared about them. So when I returned to Uncle Nathan, I simply helped him with his business affairs and refrained from involving myself in matters related to attacking hunters.After finishing my day of socializing, I returned to the estate. It was raining very heavily and it reminded me of the hunter named Jon. On the day he died, it was also a rainy day. I thought of
Eleanor's POVBecause I was worried about Harley's safety, I didn't ask him to go with me to Uncle Nathan's villa but chose to find Lawrence myself. I had been there before, and although the roads were not that familiar, I had a map that showed me the exact location. A cab brought me to the exteriors of the wine estate but the area around the estate was heavily guarded, with bodyguards patrolling everywhere. I didn't have an invitation; it was safe to assume that they wouldn't let me in. Just as I was waiting for Lawrence outside the estate, I saw Elsa and her hound, she seemed to be strolling around the property.When she saw me, she seemed very surprised, "Eleanor?"I was a little wary of her. After all, she was hostile to me because she liked Lawrence, Thoughts of ending my existence had crossed her evil mind.I nodded to her, "Elsa.""What are you doing here?""I want to see Lawrence.""Hah! Aren't you a bold one? You have no right to talk to him!" I replied, calm as ever, "Lawr
Eleanor's POVI went to visit Madison at the hospital again. Judging by her demeanor, she seemed to have recovered a lot, both physically and emotionally and that made me feel happy. Jenny was still in charge of taking care of her. Seeing Jenny reminded me of Lawrence. After all, Jenny was hired by Lawrence as a caregiver. Pulling her to the side, I secretly asked her if she had been in contact with Lawrence."Not really, but yesterday Mr. Mayer settled my salary," she explained."I see, thank you," I said.I walked into Madison's room, where she was sitting on the bed eating. Sensing my presence, she looked up and I looked at her. An awkward silence fell over the room. She was still angry at me for my relationship with Lawrence. Or maybe she didn't know how to engage with me knowing what she now knew. Likewise, I didn't know how to face her. A hunter who would threaten me and my child, and even kill my husband.The clock in the ward made an abrupt sound, and we both jumped up. Finall
Eleanor's POVI couldn't believe that Lawrence would choose to join his uncle. He was very well aware of what Nathan had done, it was too dangerous and he had promised me he wouldn't do that.I shook my head and looked at him. "Lawrence, don't do this... Please. You promised me that you wouldn't get involved in the war between werewolves and hunters. I'm sorry about today, but that was for a reason, and you know it."His expression was very cold, which reminded me of when I first met him."Yes, I did promise you, but you also promised me, didn't you? But you broke your promise. I waited for you but you didn't come. How do you think that made me feel?" There was a flash of anger in his eyes. "You disappoint me. I don't know how to love you anymore. You always have more important things than me, everyone around you will always be more important than me. You choose them, protect them, but ignore me. Eleanor, you know very well that I don't want this. I want you to love wholeheartedly me,
Eleanor's POVWhen I heard Lawrence's words, I felt a stabbing pain in my chest. I knew that this time, it was me who had hurt him. Between him and Madison, I once again chose my best friend. But to be fair, it wasn't a decision made without reason. I simply could not watch Madison carrying the terrible load by herself and do nothing. True friends don't leave each other in times of hardship and suffering. I needed to be by her side in times of need, and now was one of them. What Lawrence failed to realize was that there was more to my life than just him. There were my family and friends.I stood in the corridor, feeling very depressed. Because of physical exhaustion and discomfort, I leaned against the wall of the corridor while slowly squatting down. I needed courage and time to digest it all, and just as I was hugging my body to comfort myself, Madison's voice came to my ears."Eleanor?"I lifted my head and looked at her, "Yeah? Madison?""What's wrong with you? Feeling sick?" she
Eleanor's POVThe next day, I went to visit Madison in the hospital like I always did. However, that day was a little different. In the living room of our villa, Lawrence had already packed our bags and prepared our tickets to Mulu. I was to go to the hospital to inform Madison that we would be leaving. Lawrence had already thought of everything, even the reason."Just tell Madison that because of my work schedule, we have to leave and might not be back for a long time. Be sure to tell her that the company would not agree otherwise," Lawrence had instructed me to tell her. Now, that was a very valid excuse. Madison would certainly understand. Although I felt some guilt, I had to do it, I needed to keep my husband and child out of danger.When I came downstairs, Lawrence grabbed me and planted a kiss on my cheek.He hugged me saying, "Eleanor, I'll be waiting for you at the airport, and after you say goodbye to Madison, meet me there, okay?"I nodded, cupped his face, and said, "We sti
Eleanor's POV In a suspicious tone, Uncle Nathan asked me, " That's strange, that hunter was with you two earlier. Eleanor, why would you, a werewolf hang around a hunter?" The way Uncle Nathan looked at me made me feel as if he was trying to probe a crime suspect. "And you, Lawrence," he turned to Lawrence and gave him an angry stare, "You disappoint me. Instead of helping me fight the hunters, you have now become friends with them." He continued, "Lawrence, you have betrayed our kind."Lawrence replied firmly, "No."Uncle Nathan was not satisfied with Lawrence's answer. "My dear nephew, you've gone overboard for this woman. As werewolves, we should attack and kill the hunters before they can even lay siege on us. And yet, when faced with them, you do nothing. Nothing at all! Lawrence, you are the Alpha, you should be doing your part for our pack, our kind! And yet here you are, accompanying this woman and acting as a chauffeur for that father and daughter hunter duo. Y
Eleanor's POVI accompanied Uncle Jon to Madison's room. She was pleasantly surprised when she saw her father. It had been a long time since they had seen each other.Madison apologized to Jon, "I lost my cell phone and haven't had time to replace it, I didn't mean to ignore your calls."I immediately interrupted them to say, "Don't worry, Madison, I'll get you a new one."Jon looked behind me and noticed that Lawrence hadn't followed me. He asked me suspiciously, "Eleanor, where's your friend?"Madison looked at me, "Friend? What friend? Eleanor, aren't you the only one who went to pick up my father?"I quickly dismissed their questions, "Ah, no. I got a ride from a colleague. He owed me one."To avert Madison's suspicion, I continued, "He doesn't know you, and I thought it would be awkward for him to come see you in the ward. Besides, it's a family reunion!"Madison shrugged and dismissed the thought. I took a deep breath silently and smiled at Madison, "Hey, guess who Uncle Jon is
Eleanor's POVAs soon as we entered the car, my phone started ringing. Uncle Jon, Madison's father, was calling again."Uncle Jon."I sat in the passenger seat and glanced at Lawrence. He remained silent. I knew he was thinking the same thing as me. Why was Uncle Jon calling me again? Uncle Jon's voice came through the phone, "Eleanor, I heard about what happened at the Vatican hospital. Madison is in that hospital, isn't she?"Madison was a very strong girl. She certainly wouldn't tell Uncle Jon about the hospital incident so as not to worry him. However, Uncle Jon was bound to find out sooner or later. I hesitated. I didn't want to be the person who 'told on' Madison. However, it was becoming very dangerous to let Madison remain in Vatican.Perhaps, Uncle Jon's call was fortuitous. It was a very good opportunity to ask him to take Madison back to Bristol.Both Madison and Lawrence and I would be safe. I said, "Yes, Uncle Jon. They were attacked but she's okay.""Eleanor, Madison
