Chapter 21: The Truth Right in Front of Me
I was bothered by everything my father revealed. I couldn't get the images from that video out of my mind. I needed to find a way to prove whether or not it was all true, but how?It seemed like it was all but impossible to get help through the Stone Forest Pack, and I had no other alternatives. I couldn't just rush up and say, "Edmond, my father said that you lied to me and used me. Is that true?"Oh, Goddess, how silly! If I tried that, he would definitely think I was crazy. I laughed a little at myself just thinking about it and finally began to feel a little better.I heard a knock on the door and was startled. It was late so who could it be at this time? I sat up and called out, "Please come in."Edmond walked casually through the door with a fruit basket. I looked at the fruit basket in his hand in surprise and couldn't believe my eyes. "Is that for me?"He seemed to be confused by the question, but he quickly smirked and placed the fruit basket on the cabinet beside the bed

Chapter 22: A Desire that Burns
There was no sound outside for a long time. I moved my body slowly, trying to push the door open slightly, looking through a gap to see what was happening outside.Suddenly, a bright light shone dazzlingly in front of my face and blinded my eyes, and soon darkness overwhelmed me. I saw a huge wolf head approaching with its mouth wide open, baring its teeth."Ah!"I screamed and squeezed my eyes tight. I waved my hands in front of me, but a hand grabbed my wrist. Then, I was dragged out of the wardrobe forcefully.I fell to the ground awkwardly. The grip on my wrist loosened, and I felt a pain my wrist. I brought it to my eyes and saw that it was already bruised."Liana? What are you doing? Why are you following me?"Edmond's puzzled voice called. Anguish and rage took over me all of a sudden. I raised my head and glared at him angrily. "You lied to me!""Lied to you? What are you talking about? Silly woman, can you please start making sense?" He frowned at me impatiently.

Chapter 23: Standing in the Rain
I returned to the bed. I tossed and turned but couldn't get back to sleep. I sat up cross-legged and looked at my phone glowing weakly next to me. I couldn't help my eyes drifting towards the window.Edmond was standing in that direction. It was raining heavily outside, he should have already left by now.I was a little annoyed to find that I still cared about him, and by the fact that I was worried that he would get soaked from the rain.Don't be silly, Liana. Don't you know that he lied to you? He was trying to use you, and there's a good chance he's a murderer!I scolded myself inwardly, trying to push away my worries about him. Then, I sadly realized that this was useless. It only made me feel even more upset."Ah!"I took a pillow and slammed it in my lap to vent my frustration. I punched it randomly, over and over until I began to feel better.Knock! Knock! Knock!When I heard the knocking on the door, I forced myself to sit up straight and replied, "Come in."Nico opene

Chapter 24: Fevered Kisses
The cold raindrops soaked to my skin as they landed on me. My clothes were quickly drenched, but I didn't care anymore. A sigh came from behind me. Then, I was wrapped in someone's arms. The familiar scent made me raise my head in surprise. "Edmond!" Edmond buried his head in my neck. He seemed to be burning up with a fever. The temperature of his face was very hot. I shivered slightly in worry. "Edmond, come on. Let's talk inside." I tried to stand up, but he was hugging me so tightly that I couldn't move at all. I could only gently press my elbow against his chest, indicating that he should let go first. He seemed to think for a moment before lifting me up into his arms. After I stabilized myself, he grabbed my shoulder and turned me to face him. Before I could react, he pulled me back into his arms again. "No... Don't go. I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so rough with you. I thought... I thought you were really going to leave me. You seemed so resolute. I was really w

Chapter 25: Another Missing Person
"Edmond?" Nico sounded a little surprised. Then, she seemed to realize what was going on. "Oh, it's nothing. I'm just telling you that I'm going out on a date with my boyfriend. You guys can do whatever you want. There's breakfast in the fridge. You guys can eat it if you're hungry. I'll be heading out now." After saying that, she didn't seem to want a response. I heard the sound of her footsteps getting further and further away.Edmond did not reply to her. Instead, he leaned close to my ear and asked me with a smile, "Do you think she heard you?"I finally couldn't take it anymore. I opened my mouth and bit down on his shoulder, not holding back at all. I heard him groan in pain, and my heart softened for a moment. I didn't know what came over me as I licked the bite mark."You're really an attractive little demon, aren't you?" I felt his body tense up for a moment. Then, he suddenly pulled out the fingers in my body. Before I could react, he lifted his c*ck and pushed it into m

Chapter 26: Matter of Life and Death
"I remember now! He's from our pack" I declared as the memory finally came back to me. I pointed at the leather shoes. "Those belong to one of my father's bodyguards. He only works for my father."I bit my lower lip. Although I didn't want to believe that my father had anything to do with this, I couldn't risk hiding anything because this was a life-and-death situation."He was affiliated with a gang of criminals who were going to be executed, but my father said that he wanted to give them another chance because they were young. These people became my father's men. In order to express their loyalty, these people cut off their own thumbs as a pledge of allegiance. Look here, the thumb of this man is missing."I hung my head in shame, shocked at the fact that the people who captured my best friend's boyfriend were actually my father's men."I'm sorry... Nico... I..." I wanted to give her a reasonable explanation or more assurances, but I couldn't. There was nothing I could say to mak

Chapter 27: Lack of Evidence
Although we were living together again, it felt like we had grown more indifferent to each other.Once again, I took Edmond's passion for granted. I could feel his confusion, but I simply couldn't force myself to be loving towards him.He didn't belong to me. He loved another woman I'd never met. I pressed my back against the door and pretended not to hear his knock.Edmond seemed to give up. He said something and then went out the door.I looked up helplessly. I longed for his scent and his gentleness, but every time I was close to him, my rationality kept telling me that the two of us were just in a contractual relationship and that I had been loving someone who didn't love me. It also told me that I was the third wheel, the kind of person I used to hate the most.As I thought about this, a strong feeling of guilt and nausea instantly overwhelmed me. I couldn't help but hold my chest and retch. The corners of my eyes were constantly wet with tears.In a daze, I moved back to th

Chapter 28: All For Nothing
"Well, you're all here. Um, Edmond, I have something to tell you." Martin suddenly showed up at the door as if he was a little surprised that I was here. He seemed to be urgently looking for Edmond, but he couldn't really say why because I was around."If you have something to tell me, just say it." Edmond did not seem to have any worries about me being there. He looked calm and did not seem to want to hide anything.Martin seemed uncertain for a moment before he quickly gave a report."Ah? Alright. Everything you've asked for has been taken care of. Hank's assets have basically been taken. Not long ago, he took a risk to make a deal and was caught by the police." Mike and I were stunned by his words. The two of us seemed to have been frozen at this moment. We opened our mouths slightly and looked at Edmond in shock."I already know this. Mike's colleague called just now. Have you found Hank's whereabouts?" Edmond frowned. "Not yet, but we've found out where his plane landed.

Chapter 29: You and Only You
*Liana*"Let's terminate the contract," I suggested to Edmond.I was shocked that he had prepared a nice dinner for me. I was really touched. The feeling of being cherished was amazing.Touched as I was, I fell into his arms again and almost lost control of myself. Thank goodness my senses returned and I pulled myself back again in time.I listened to his questions and fell into a long silence as I took in his frustration. I didn't know how I was going to answer him. It wasn't his fault. I couldn't control myself and let my feelings get in the way of the contract. Then I ended up looking like this.He seemed to have finally lost his patience and got up from me silently. I panicked and vaguely felt that if I didn't do something, I might lose him completely.I immediately reached out and grabbed his arm. He looked at me coldly and wanted to break free from me. I panicked and said, "I, I like you. I can't deal with the fact that you make love to me because you only want to have chil

Chapter 30: Another Misunderstanding
##Chapter 30*Edmond*"Doctor, please help! She's pregnant and in pain!" I rushed forward and carried Liana to the examination table in the consulting room."Calm down. Please stay outside while I examine her." The doctor was shocked and I quickly calmed down. He instructed the nurse on duty to install instruments for Liana and chased me out.Reluctant as I was, I had to do as the doctor said. I paced anxiously back and forth outside the emergency room door."Please don't let anything happen to them. Why wasn't I more careful?" I prayed in frustration. After a moment's thought, I took out my phone and called Nico. If anything happened, Liana would feel better with Nico by her side.No, Liana would be fine!It happened so fast! I was not prepared at all. That was such a little life. I had just found out about his existence, and now I had to face losing him.I felt uneasy and paced back and forth in the corridor with my fists clenched.What was faking so long? There was no sound
