Freda’s POV
“I’ll come to you every time you call out my name.”
“Whenever and wherever.”
Allen was making a commitment, which really melted my heart. In the past, I had never believed in sweet talks and promises. But now I nodded at him and smiled, “I’ll learn to lean on you, Allen. But you can also count on me.”
“Aren’t you already my attending doctor and caretaker?” Allen smiled, “So I’m counting on you for Kent and my health.”
“Of course,” I chuckled.
“And if things get tricky when you deal with your family, you can always come to me for help,” Allen added.
I knew I couldn’t hide what happened with Susan at the hospital from him so I just nodded and said, “I know. If I need your help, I’ll ask for it. But now I’m good. I can handle it.”
“Are you sure? He’s the alpha of the Fullmoon Pack after all.”
Alpha had enough power to banish me even though I was his daughter.
But…
I showed him the thing I took from my apartment and he was a bit stunned. He said, “Looks like you’re not the only Greenwald that has a heart.”
“Yeah. Unlike Levi, grandpa was an upstanding alpha with integrity…” I paused for a few seconds and then continued, “this is the leverage he left for me. If Susan and the others are really gonna hold a shareholders’ meeting, I’ll present them with this big surprise.”
“I think they will,” Allen said with a complicated look on his face, “after they know what happened to that guy from the Blood Moon Pack.”
“What?”
What happened?
Did Allen do something?
Before I could ask anything, Mrs. Katrina waved at us, wanting us to come over, “Alpha Allen, Miss Freda, it’s time for afternoon tea. Care to join us and have some desserts with the children?”
She looked like she had got a lot to say to me.
And I had a lot of questions to ask her too, like what Allen was like when he was little. So I pushed Allen toward the castle. A bunch of kids were peeping out at us curiously but they were all behaving and didn’t make any noises. My heart melted when I saw these little sweet angels.
Eli, who had already met us, whispered to the children next to him in a proud voice that was loud enough for all of us to hear, “That’s our Luna. She’s so nice and pretty.”
Nice…
That was the first time I heard a child call me that.
“And Alpha Allen would smile at her.”
“…”

Third-person POV
“Carl has blocked my mind link!” Natasha was filled with rage but she could only press it down just so she could pretend to be the obedient good girl in front of Levi. She sobbed worriedly, “Daddy, what am I supposed to do? After the ball, Carl has been cold and distant to me. Is he gonna call off the engagement?”
Alpha Levi looked quite gloomy right now. To be honest, he was pretty annoyed by his daughter’s crying but he had to stay calm and comfort her, “No, Carl’s not that unreasonable.”
“But…”
“Don’t worry about it, Natasha, Carl just needs some space. He’s a man and he has his dignity. You need to give him some space,” Levi lit a cigarette and said tiredly, “Just go and prepare for your wedding. Our two tribes won’t break up so easily.”
After all, in the eyes of others, Carl and Natasha had been a loving couple since they confessed their love to each other and said love meant everything to them in public.
“Carl might just be too busy recently. I don’t know what’s the matter with the alpha of the Midnight Claws Pack. His people have been targeting Hunter’s company.”
“The Midnight Claws Pack…Alpha Allen?” Natasha was confused, “but we only met him once at the ball. Why would he target the Blood Moon Pack?”
Levi shook off his cigarette ash and said, “Who knows? That alpha has always been like that, moody and unpredictable.”
Natasha thought of the man in the wheelchair that day. Although he was temporarily disabled, he still looked much more stunning than Carl. Why would a guy like him target Carl? But that day, he and Freda seemed to be…
No, that’s impossible. Natasha thought to herself.
She would never believe that alpha Allen would fall for Freda because to men, she was way too cold and was nothing but a pretty face. There was no way that alpha Allen would have feelings for her. And Natasha heard that his wolf was missing so Freda couldn’t be his mate.
This was odd. She couldn’t figure out why alpha Allen would do that. Maybe it was because he couldn’t walk and became grumpy. He was doing this for the thrill of it.
Natasha felt it was such a pity that alpha Allen lost his wolf and became an invalid. Or else, he would be much better than Carl. He was a strong and handsome man. Being the Luna of the Midnight Claws Pack was much more attempting than being the Luna of the Blood Moon Pack and she would get greater power. But no one knew when alpha Allen could recover. It was only logical for Natasha to hold onto Carl.
Natasha gave her mother Olivia a look.
Olivia knew what she meant and gave Levi a cup of warm tea, saying helplessly in a soft voice, “Their marriage might be unbreakable in the past but Levi…if Hunter and Vanessa think marrying Natasha can’t achieve their purpose of our union, they might really give up on Natasha. As you said, their company is not doing great recently, is it?”
What Olivia said got Levi thinking. She gave him some time to think and then sighed, “After all, Natasha isn’t the heir and she can’t give them any solid profits.”
“Hunter…” Levi paused and then said, “wouldn’t stoop so low.”
“But I’m never the one Uncle Hunter prefers…” Natasha looked down and said sadly, “ever since I was little, Freda has been his favorite.”
Olivia took a look at Levi and knew it wasn’t time to play the victim anymore. She spoke up directly, “Levi, Natasha is my only child and I want the best for her. But alpha Hunter and Luna Vanessa all look down upon Natasha and she can only count on the love Carl has for her. And if Carl also gives in for the profits, I’m afraid…”
“There’s no way Freda will agree to marry Carl and Natasha is our only option if we want a union between us and the Blood Moon Pack,” Olivia said softly, acting like she was saying this for the sake of the pack and Natasha.
Carl pondered for a while and finally said, “I see where you’re coming from. What did Freda say in the ward today?”
“She…” Olivia wanted to say something but hesitated, “you know her. She’s a stubborn kid.”
“And she doesn’t even give a damn about her own grandmother,” Levi shook off his cigarette ash and his eyes darkened, “and of course she doesn’t care about the pack.”
Olivia sighed, “After all, we owe it to her. But I’ve never expected her to be so cruel. Right now we don’t know what Hunter and Vanessa are thinking. Levi, I don’t think you have much time to hesitate about the heir.”
There was a deafening silence in the living room. Natasha clenched her fists, trying hard not to urge Levi. Finally, after a long time, Levi spoke up, “I’ll give my shares to Natasha so she’ll have something to count on. Let’s hold the shareholders’ meeting. I’ve been trying to make it up to Freda…but she’s still stubborn like she used to be. Well then, I have to do what I have to do to protect the Greenwald family.”
Hearing that, Natasha was so thrilled that she wanted to jump off the ground. She tried very hard to suppress her joy and asked, “Daddy, are you serious?”
Levi nodded.
“Daddy, I love you so much!” Natasha couldn’t contain herself anymore and ran to hug Levi. She was pampering him like she always did but she had got a smug look on her face when she looked down, “you’re so good to me. I don’t even know what to say.”
“You’re my daughter. Of course I want the best for you,” Levi patted Natasha’s head and said.
“I’ll come to you every time you call out my name.”
