Finally, the long-awaited night arrived. It was only a matter of time before the ceremony took place."Where's Albert?" Ryn asked one of the servants.She had just finished her makeup but hadn't seen Albert for a few hours."Alpha Albert is on the balcony, Miss. I saw him talking to Beta Jayden a while ago," the maid replied."Is this finished?" Ryn asked again."It is, Miss," the servant replied."You may leave," Ryn said next.After the maid left the room, Ryn went to the balcony to meet the Alpha. She saw Albert standing from a distance with both hands resting on the balcony railing, his back to her. He was facing the central courtyard, where the coronation ceremony would occur."I've been looking all around for you," Ryn joked as she swung her legs around, getting closer to the Alpha.Ryn's voice made Albert turn away. The man then turned around, welcoming his Luna-to-be. A small smile played on the Alpha's lips. He could not hide the admiration in his eyes. That beautiful face wi
There was an uproar of panic. Some guests were known to complain of shortness of breath, and some of them fainted. It all happened in quick succession, almost at the same time.What happened?That was the question echoing inside Albert's head. The Alpha froze with bated breath, seeing the panic among the guests. Everything was fine until a few seconds ago, he heard someone scream in terror, followed by another panic. It all happened in a short period. This was such a sudden attack, but... who?"Alpha Albert!" called Sebastian.The Alpha turned his head briefly and then looked back at the guests."What happened?" the Alpha asked."I don't know. They were fine before. Then suddenly they fell," Sebastian replied.In the distance, a woman could be seen walking quickly toward Herbert with a flushed face, holding back her anger and panic."What did you do to my husband, Alpha Albert?!" The question was accusatory. She was Luna Beatrice of the South River Pack. Her husband had been one of th
Albert's self-investigation did not go as expected. The scouts he ordered to search for information were, in fact, unsuccessful in providing the name of someone who posed a threat."I'm sorry, Alpha Albert." Jayden looked down in shame for not succeeding in giving maximum results for the task assigned to him.Albert took a deep breath. He would not blame Jayden for this unsatisfactory result. Apparently, the opponent this time was quite clever and cunning. Even from the CCTV camera footage, nothing suspicious was found."It's not your fault. No need to apologise," Albert said."What about the lab test results of the food and drinks?" asked Jayden."Nothing. There are no indications of poison in the food and drinks we provide," Albert replied. "However, the blood sample was positive for botulinum. Neurotoxin," he continued."Neurotoxin?" Jayden confirmed."That's right. Mike said it usually takes effect about 12 hours after exposure. Doesn't that mean they were exposed to the poison ou
Ryn gently caressed Albert's face. She gave the Alpha a warm smile, creating a sense of comfort in her lover."I have nothing to comfort you with but love," Ryn said.Albert's hazel irises scanned the beautiful face intently. The man let Ryn's soft fingers surf over whatever the girl wanted. No words, just a look with his eyes as permission."The responsibility that lies on your shoulders is heavy. I know that." Ryn lowered her touch from Albert's face to the man's shoulders. She briefly stroked it and rested her palm on the Alpha's chest. His face lifted slowly, meeting her gaze in a straight line. "Put all that fatigue behind you for a moment. Give your body and brain a chance to rest for a moment. I'm here, Albert. I'll do whatever it takes to ease the burden weighing you down," she continued as she nuzzled the Alpha's chest.Those delicate fingers gave her a soft, lulling touch. Then she undid the buttons of Albert's shirt one by one until the hair underneath reached the net. Ryn
This emergency forced Albert to summon Judith to the palace. He believed that Judith was the one who knew the most about Ryn's visions."Don't worry! No matter how bad it is, we'll face it together." Albert kissed Ryn's forehead.The girl was still scared, even though Albert often assured her they would face any problem together. Ryn didn't want Albert to leave her side, even for a second.There was a knock on the door, and Albert was forced to let go of his girlfriend's embrace. He went to open the door."Mrs. Morrow is here, Alpha Albert," said a man, one of Albert's wolves."I'll see her soon," replied the Alpha.Albert quickly returned and told Ryn that the person they were waiting for had arrived. They hurriedly went to meet the waiting Judith."Judith!" Ryn half-ran over to the forty-year-old woman sitting on the sofa."Ryn," Judith replied.The woman stood up and greeted Ryn, who immediately hugged her tightly."What happened?" Judith stroked Ryn's back while glancing at Albert
The three people sitting at the same table looked at each other. Ryn's answer seemed to confirm that the terrible incident happened in the Golden Moon Pack. As pack leader, Albert's mind immediately went to the incident during the coronation ceremony, where several of his guests had collapsed."I believe all of this is connected," Albert said."That's very possible, considering Ryn has experienced this before, and it's proven true," Judith said.Albert gritted his teeth. His hands were clenched tightly with emotion. If Ryn's vision were true, a great battle would be in his palace. Perhaps this was a sign the Moon Goddess had given them. So that Albert could prepare everything."Do you know when it will happen?" Albert asked Ryn.The girl shook her head. She could not find any clues about the exact time of the battle."I'm sorry," Ryn said regretfully."Not your fault," Albert replied. He turned to Judith and said, "Thank you for coming here.""No need to thank me. I didn't do anything
Confession and atonement are the most beautiful things about ending a feud. Forgiving and accepting each other is another way to let go of the burdens that have been piling up in our minds.Albert has not fully accepted fate because, until this moment, he still cannot accept Lance as his younger brother. However, by taking into account the fact that Judith was his mother, he felt that his chest was much lighter. There was a sense of relief, like a heavy burden that had been lifted."What made you smile to yourself, hm?" asked Ryn.The girl had been watching Albert for some time now. The Alpha, who was sitting on the balcony, seemed to be daydreaming while occasionally smiling faintly.Ryn's question forced Albert out of his reverie. The Alpha blinks his eyes quickly while looking back at the girl."What are you doing there?" Albert asked.Ryn walked up to the Alpha. A small smile spread across the girl's lips as she felt the aura of happiness radiating from the Alpha's face. Behind Al
Hurried footsteps could be heard approaching. Albert and Jayden turned in the direction of the sound. One of the Warriors came to them with a serious look."Dom," Jayden greeted. "How are things outside?" Jayden asked. He knew the warrior hadn't come for mere pleasantries; he must have gotten a message from Sebastian.The man named Dominic stopped before the Alpha, saluted with a nod of his head, and then answered Jayden's question, "There's a lot of them. We need help to keep them from entering the palace grounds."The famous Golden Moon Pack warriors, as well as Sebastian, had already taken matters into their own hands to deal with the enemy. However, in reality, the number of opponents they had to face was beyond prediction. There were hundreds of werewolves moving against the Golden Moon Pack as if they had been prepared for the attack.A warrior facing ten people at once would be fine. However, they could remember the fact that there were Alphas also coming down to attack, who ha
