Chapter 66
Alpha Adam
In the Opal Moon packhouse, there was a personal library reserved solely for
the Alpha. Due to my position, it had been passed down to me. However, it held
countless secrets of our ancestors and history, including a few that I had hidden
away over the years. Finally, the one that I had been looking for lay before my
eyes: a photograph that was taken six past. To locate it, I had turned the entire
library upside down, scattering books and important papers everywhere. Amidst
the chaos, I stood, wide–eyed, holding the photograph in my hand.
I…I was correct. It was her.
Six years ago, during a visit to the palace, I had coincidentally witnessed Elder
Frank nearly get killed by Alpha Reuben. Though I didn’t dare interrupt the
altercation, I overheard enough to understand that Reuben was issuing perilous
warnings to Frank. I didn’t know why, but I felt the curious urge to discover
Reuben’s weaknesses and secrets. Later, when Frank attempted to fiee, I
apprehended him and coerced him into divulging everything that had
transpired.
He was so terrified that his mind was no longer stable. However, he confided in
ill intentions toward her would face Reuben’s wrath. Such statements frightened
me, but what Elder Frank disclosed next surpassed my imagination.

When he encountered Reuben’s woman, he read her fate simply by gazing upon
her face. He had been horrified by what he saw. Her fate was incredibly twisted,
he sensed that she had a very dark past. A past that was better off dead and
buried under the shadows of the night. Anyone associated with her was
destined to face misfortune and death. Every person connected to her was
destined for doom.
He didn’t explain why he made such a statement, but fear prevented him from
saying more. With that, he fied, leavingwith a photo of the woman. I couldn’t
investigate further due to the many events involving Alpha Luis and Reuben in
the following years. Therefore, I kept the photo hidden in the library for reasons
unknown. However, when I recently cacross a clear photo of Alpha
Reuben’s soulmate, I realized it was the swoman with the twisted fate. I…I
never imagined the woman Frank toldabout years ago was Reuben’s
soulmate!
“How dare that woman return after so many years?!” I furiously crushed her
photograph in my hand. Despite knowing the ominous nature of the future that
awaited her, she dared to give birth to two of Reuben’s children!
Frank’s statement about her twisted fate had proven true. Six years ago, the
Emerald Bright Pack had been torn apart thanks to her. I lost my best friend,
Luis. Everyone’s relationships had changed, while Reuben had transformed into
a beast walking on two legs. Despite his life having been ruined on so many
levels, he had still welcomed back the only woman that all the blrested on.
Her twisted fate had manifested true because as soon as she returned, she stole
Reuben from Ella, ruining their relationship and the marriage treaty!
Suddenly, the news of Frank’s disappearance from the Emerald Bright Pack
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtcrossed to mind. My whole b*dy turned cold when I realized that Frank hadn’t
been seen leaving the Emerald Bright because he was dead, Reuben killed him!
Once again, that wretched soulmate of his was the catalyst behind it!
Now, Reuben had left the pack to chase after her, with every intention of
bringing her back.
“F**k! I can’t let it happen. I can’t let that wretched she–wolf return to the
Emerald Bright Pack and ruin everything for Ella,” I murmured, running my
fingers through my hair in panic. Reuben was already obsessed with her, so he
wouldn’t believeif I told him about her twisted fate. Or worse, he would kill
forcefully sent her to deal with a treaty for Opal Moon as soon as she returned
from the Thanksgiving party. She had yet to return and now it was tfor me
to take action.
Storming out of the library, I made my way downstairs.
“Roman!” I yelled, my Beta appeared in the living room hurriedly.
“Alpha,” he stood up straight, ready to receive orders.
“Find this she–wolf and kill her on the spot,” I commanded, slamming the photo
down onto the nearby table. “Remember, she should not return to the Emerald
Bright Pack alive no matter the consequences. It’s better if her ash never returns
either!”
“I understand,” he replied before leaving with the photo.
I looked at the old photo of the wretched she–wolf in my hand again and tossed
it into the fireplace, watching it burst into fiames.

I had never been a light sleeper, but when the phone vibrated twice beside my
pillow, I could no longer ignore it. Since I didn’t have my phone with me, it was
obviously coming from Reuben’s. My eyes landed on the clock on the wall. It was
only nine PM. I was annoyed and didn’t want to talk to him, so I had been
sleeping in bed all day like a stubborn child. He had been sleeping with me
since he returned. I couldn’t help but wonder, who could possibly be calling
him?
I glanced over my shoulder to find him sound asleep. Usually, he slept very
lightly. The slightest of sounds or movements would wake him, so why wasn’t he
up yet?
When the phone vibrated again, I decided to switch it off. The problem was once
my eyes landed on the non the screen, my hand paused. It was Ella, and
now she was messaging instead of calling. The corners of my l*ps twitched, and I
decided to put it back. However, the messages continued fiashing on the screen,
and I couldn’t help but read them.
“Reuben, I heard you’ve been missing from the pack for a few days now.”
“Where are you?”
“I’m worried. Please cback.”
“Can I cmeet you?”
“I am…”
My hands tightened around the phone, and I slammed it down on the pillow
between us. My ch*st burned after seeing all those messages for sreason.
“Your phone is vibrating, which is kind of annoying when I’m trying to sleep.
Kindly switch it off!” I snapped at the sleeping Alpha behindand closed my
eyes to sleep. However, after 10 seconds when he didn’t move, I elbowed him.
“Hey, don’t play dead and quickly switch it off before I throw it out the window,”
I warned. Yet, I didn’t get any response, which causedto open my eyes in
suspicion. Was he really sleeping that deeply?
I turned completely around to face him, only to find a pair of beautiful green
eyes already locked with mine.
“You checked my messages just like a jealous little wife,” he teased, a smile
playing on his l*ps that madeblush in embarrassment.
“Who the hell checked your phone?!” I punched his ch*st with a growl. “I put it
down without reading a thing!” I quickly lied and glared at him. “And who is this
jealous wife you are talking about?! I am not your wife. Why the hell were you
playing dead when you were awake the whole time?!” I demanded, raising my
voice to cover my embarrassment.
“Alright, alright. You’re not my jealous little wife, you’re my jealous little mate,”
he said, pullinginto a warm hug.
“Hey, you…” I opened my mouth to yell at him but struggled and failed when he
k*ssed my head and continued laughing.
I frowned at him, trying not to be lured in by his breathtaking handsomeness.
My heartbeat quickened, and I lowered my eyes, stealing a look at his
exceptionally red cheek.
He caughtlooking at him and grinned, “Do you want to say something?”
“Yes, I want to know when you’re lettinggo,” I murmured, rolling my eyes.
“Right now,” he smiled, earning a shocked look from me.
Pulling away from me, he got up off the bed and placed a set of clothes beside
before leaving, closing the door behind him. I couldn’t believe my ears for a
couple of seconds. Did he just say he was lettinggo?
In a confused state, I put on the clothes and exited the bedroom, only to find
him in the living room where he handeda set of car keys and a new phone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Drive slowly and safely back to the pack. It’s only nine pm so you’ll be there in
an hour. This phone has Oran and Bix’s numbers programmed into it, so call
them if you need to. I know you’re missing the children and want to see them as
soon as possible, but still drive carefully, okay?” He touched my cheek and I
stared at him without blinking, my heart quickening at this side of Reuben that
was beyond my understanding.
“You’re not coming with me?” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper for some
reason. But wait, why did I ask him that? He had kidnapped me, so why did it
matter towhether he cwithor not?
He smiled. “No, I have something to handle here,” he took my hand and began
leadingoutside the house. “I’ll return to the pack soon. You are going first,”
he opened the door forand gestured forto get in.
I nodded and started the car, but my eyes kept drifting back to him. For some
reason, my heart was restless. Could it be because I hadn’t been expecting this?
I drove away slowly, watching him through the rearview mirror. He was standing
there, watchingleave. He had even set up the map foron the screen so I
could return to the Emerald Bright Pack without getting lost.
I drove all the way out to the forest, lost in thoughts of Reuben. I wanted him to
letgo, but when he did, I hadn’t felt even a drop of happiness or freedom. It
was as if only my b*dy was free, while my heart had been left behind with him.
His lonely figure that I watched in the mirror unsettled my soul for sreason.
It felt like our final goodbye, and that thought weighed heavily on my heart. As
the highway cinto view in the distance, memories of Reuben’s strange
behavior since I woke up earlier crossed my mind.
He had letgo so easily, without a hug or k*ss. He had simply sentoff
without any physical contact, which was unlike Reuben. It was strange that he
had askedto call Oran or Bix if I needed anything, not him. Just as the tires
of the car were about to touch the highway, I slammed my foot on the brakes
and pulled out my phone. Glancing back, I saw only darkness. The most peculiar
thing was that he had letgo alone on this gloomy night and hadn’t followed
me.
Something was emphatically wrong!
I immediately turned the car around and quickly began driving back to the
house. The more I thought about Reuben’s strange behavior, the more I realized
he was hiding something from me, but what? A few minutes later, I reached the
house and quickly got out. For sreason, Ceri had started acting weird in my
mind.
The front door of the house was still wide open, which I found strange. However,
as soon as I stepped into the house, a sharp scent hit my nose, sending shivers
down my spine.
Frozen in place, I stared at Reuben leaning against the sofa in the living room,
his face fiushed and groaning in pain. He raised his wolf’s eyes to lock with
mine, and my eyes widened.
He…he was in rut.
