Ryn yearned to return to the apartment, while Lance was interested in the file on Drake's desk. The girl closed the door after Lance disappeared behind the elevator doors. She turned around and leaned against the door while touching her chest. Ryn's eyes were closed tightly against the suffocating sadness. The sense of loss tucked into every breath made Ryn feel tormented.Ryn missed Albert.If only she could, Ryn wanted to kill that feeling. However, the longing became even more agonizing every time she tried to push it away from her chest. There was a pain she did not understand when she was away from the Alpha."Is this called a mate bond? Why can't I push this feeling away? Why do I always want to go back to him? I hate him. God! I hate him." Ryn pressed harder and harder against his chest.The girl knew her hatred was the opposite of her true feelings. Ryn said it just to deny what she felt.Have you ever hated and loved someone at the same time? That's exactly what Ryn was feeli

Lance's lips curved, forming a smile. He then said to Ryn, "That's my mom."The nervousness Ryn felt was getting worse. The girl gulped saliva with difficulty and then forced a smile."I was so nervous," she admitted.Lance chuckled."You're just going to meet my mom. There’s no need to be nervous. Trust me, she's a good person," the man said."That's why. I'm only going to meet your mother, but I'm more nervous than I am about meeting my future mother-in-law," the girl said.Ryn's words made Lance's smile suddenly fade. For a moment, the man felt thrown into a different dimension. A world different from the one he had lived in all this time. If only Ryn knew that he wished the girl's words came true."Why didn't you say you were coming this soon? I haven't even put my cake in the oven yet," yelled Judith, who was still busy in the kitchen.Judith's voice pulled Lance out of his thoughts. Lance blinked a few times while looking away to neutralize the feelings in his heart. The man rea

Making peace with the strange things in the werewolf world had become second nature to Ryn. Her life had changed. She no longer considered those unusual occurrences as oddities. Ryn felt her soul had become one with Ryn Aberdein, the wolf girl. Even so, with the prophecy that tied her and Albert to a destiny. She could accept it as a scenario of destiny that had to be lived. Even if it all sounded like a fairy tale read to a child."Bloodwolf will make her Mate very strong. However, that power will also destroy her Mate. Christian interpreted it as death. The Moon Goddess put Bloodwolf and her Mate in a difficult situation." Judith's words must have been ringing in her ears.Ryn agreed with the woman's words. After hearing Judith's explanation of the prophecy, she understood why Albert wanted to kill her. The Alpha was more concerned with his power than the love between them."Christian and I found a way to deflect the prophecy. We performed a ritual in the North Hills with the help o

The threatening letter had sent Ryn into a panic. The girl panicked, and without another thought, she ran out of the apartment. The girl pressed the elevator button repeatedly as if her actions would open the elevator doors quickly."Come on, come on!" Ryn muttered while squeezing the threatening letter in her hand.As soon as the elevator doors opened, Ryn rushed inside and immediately pressed the button for the lobby. She continued in the elevator, causing several people in the same elevator to look at her strangely. However, Ryn didn't care. The only thing on her mind right now was Lance. She had to get to the place quickly to save him.Upon arriving at the lobby, Ryn approached the building, standing by the door."Sir, do you know where 441 Vins Building is?" asked Ryn matter-of-factly.The security guard frowned."What are you looking for in that place? It's just an abandoned building that the developer abandoned years ago," said the man in the security uniform."Just answer my q

"Doctor! We lost her!" one of the nurses exclaimed.Mike hurriedly swung his legs faster towards Ryn, lying weakly on the bed. The nurses quickly stepped aside, allowing Mike to check Ryn's condition. Mike did his job deftly. He checked the pulse on Ryn's wrist and detected nothing. Then he reached for the pulse in Ryn's neck and still found nothing. Until he finally lowered his head, trying to listen to the girl's heartbeat."Shit!" cursed Mike.The man then started CPR to restore Ryn's heartbeat. The doctor pressed on the girl's chest regularly, occasionally checking her pulse and the graph on the monitor screen."Defibrillator!" ordered the doctor."All right, Doctor!" replied the nurse.The nurse picked up the defibrillator and brought it closer to the bed. Mike made sure there were no metal objects attached to Ryn's body. Then, he started the next procedure. He used the defibrillator to restore the girl's heartbeat."Hang in there, Miss Ryn! Please, come back to us!" said Mike. "
