Orabella:The melodious music and the bustling conversation of people were resounding outside the hall. I was nervously standing inside the dressing room. I look at a strange self in the mirror and can't help but be happy; I will turn 18 in a few hours. That marks my adulthood; I will meet my wolf and find see my mate.Thinking of those things excited me; I grinned and mumbled along with the song.Everything will be great, I'm sure."Everything is ready; the guests have come close enough, just waiting for you. Do you have any plans after tonight, baby?" My old brother, Edward, is looking at me with loving eyes."Now, don't call me that; I'm about to become an adult." I blushed, cheeks red.My brother is perfect in every way; the only flaw is that he likes to tease me whenever possible. He knew that calling me by my childhood nickname would embarrass me, and he liked it. He said that at that time, I looked cute even though I didn't feel it."No matter how old you are, you are still a b
I run, I run madly.Edward stayed behind to protect me until he saw me running into the forest. He came back to help us father.The long skirt hindered my speed; without thinking much, I tore off the bottom of the dress and threw it aside; everything seemed a little better.But because I was in such a hurry, I didn't notice that a trap was soon placed ahead. When my foot stepped on the animal trap, it clamped down on my leg, and blood flowed out. I couldn't help but scream; I didn't know someone had heard it, and they would soon come and arrest me.I gritted my teeth, sweat dripping from my forehead. I tried to pull the trap out, but its sharp teeth were dug deep into my calf. The more it exerted its force, the tighter it tightened as if it wanted to crush my bones.I was so helpless that I burst into tears. Why do these things happen? I should have been gathering around family and friends to celebrate my birthday, then eagerly waiting for my wolf to show up. But now, everything has s
He curled his lips into a killer smile; he didn't need to bother trying to catch me; just one sentence made me stiffen. "If you leave here, your father will die."My body trembled. I slowly turned my head, feeling like my eyes were about to explode."Father…" I mumbled as my mind went blank.All my life, I will never forget that image. My father was lying on the ground, beaten to the point of mixing flesh and blood; his face was disfigured, and even his bones were exposed in some places.His whole body was constantly covered with fresh blood, drenching a large area.Clement seemed very pleased with my distressed expression, smug. He lowered his head, grabbed my father's hair, pulled it back, and clicked his tongue. "Poor, where is the majestic appearance that stopped me just now?""Bastard! You release my father; I risk my life with you!" Despite all the consequences, I screamed and dashed forward, but Albert held me back halfway through.He clasped my hands behind my back, then kicke
"If I had enough power, I would kill you in no time." I laughed mockingly; blood came from my throat whenever I opened my mouth.This time I angered Clement, his eyes darkening, his thin lips quirking wickedly."Then you should pray." Clement pulled out his knife and stabbed it coldly.I closed my eyes, waiting for the pain and waiting for death. But after a while, I still didn't feel anything; on the contrary, a heavy body pressed down on me.I opened my eyes, and my whole body stiffened. I looked up at Clement and down at the bloody body guarding me tightly in his large arms.My father held that knife for me; his throat was ripped open and fresh blood was gushing out. I covered it with my hand, frantically trying to stop the bleeding, but it didn't stop; it still rushed through my arm and fell to the ground.Helpless, I didn't know what to do when I saw the blood kept flowing."Dad, don't die… don't die. I'm sorry; I'll never be stubborn again; I'll listen to you; I won't argue agai
I woke up vaguely after a long sleep. I opened my eyes and stared at the cold gray ceiling. The sun shining into the room adds to the warmth. From here, I can zoom out and quickly see the atmosphere outside.Everything was so peaceful, as if nothing had happened.Like the pain I experienced was a nightmare, my hometown was not destroyed when I woke up, and my family was still as happy as never separated.But I know it's all true, a catastrophic truth that has suddenly been glued to our heads. Although time has passed, the pain in my heart is still the same as it was then. Feelings of helplessness and despair enveloped me like a monster.I tilted my head, tears suddenly falling even though I didn't want to; more than anyone else, I needed to be strong. My teeth bit my lower lip; I tried to swallow all the emotions down my stomach. What I have to do now is not sit here weak; I need to get out of here first to reunite with my mother and brother.I sat up, the pain coming from the waves s
A few days later, the wound on my body began to heal. I lowered my eyes and touched the white cloth, the external wound had healed, but the injury inside my heart was not stopping bleeding.During that time, Vincent went to the hospital every day. Seeing him made me uncomfortable, but I couldn't do anything about him, so I considered him invisible.Vincent is also very patient, not showing any anger. "If you have recovered, go back to my house; there is no need for this little place anymore. Going back and forth every day, annoying."I looked up at him, my five fingers clutching the blanket.He was on our territory, took our house, and now he opens his mouth to say it's his home sounds easy.I smiled sarcastically, not saying a word.Vincent has no shame; he raises his eyes. "Is your old home. Do you think I'm good to you? I chose that house because I didn't want you to feel strange. Although it is a bit small, it is also immaculate."My blood boils, I look at Vincent with resentment,
"Do you want to go for a walk? I will take you away." Vincent raised an eyebrow.I shook my head and turned to look at him. "Where I want to go, you take me too?""Of course." Vincent agreed very quickly."I want to see Albert. He's not dead, is he?" I asked, still without any unusual expression on my face.But Vincent is an intelligent man; he quickly understood my current thinking. He comfortably wrapped his arms around my neck, and the corners of his mouth curved harmoniously, but I could still see the cruelty in his eyes. "I also think you want the moon or stars in the sky, and then you need to think for a while, which is too simple."I frowned momentarily and then reluctantly pulled the corner of my lips up. "Thanks for the help."Vincent was dumbfounded momentarily; his arm on my shoulder was also stiff, and he looked amused. "Did you just laugh?""Can't it?" I asked again.Vincent shook his head again and again; I rarely saw his sincerity. "It seems my work today was not wasted
After breakfast, Vincent also had to go out; before he left, he instructed the servants to stay and talk to me to be less sad."I'll be back in the afternoon." Vincent kissed me lightly on the forehead and got into the car.I watched until the car disappeared, then returned to the house and sat down on the sofa with a cold heart. I suddenly thought, if I had met Vincent earlier, how good it would be without animosity between him and me.But it's too late; he and I can't be together forever.In the afternoon, but Vincent didn't come back as he promised, I sat with my back against the window, looking out at the empty courtyard to the point of dismay.The sky is so cloudy today; it looks like it will rain. Wait a minute, and I'm back in bed; how stupid am I to believe Vincent's promise? I felt so funny and ashamed of my actions; I was there, just waiting to see him.Suddenly, from afar, an old car came running; I didn't know the brand, so I didn't realize what it was, only knowing that i
