Yvette's POV
"Yvette..." a gentle female voice sounded next to me.
As I opened my eyes, I saw a beautiful lady in a white dress standing in front of me.
"Moon Goddess?" It wasn't the first time I had dreamed of her.
I didn't know why she kept showing up in my dreams. I was just an ordinary she-wolf.
"Yvette Schwartz, your mate is about to appear."
Her voice was so mellow that I couldn't help but want to hear more.
All of a sudden, a sharp pain shot up from my leg.
I lowered my head and found a red scar on my calf.
By the time I looked up, the Moon Goddess had disappeared. Darkness engulfed me.
Then, my thigh began to hurt, too.
"Ouch!" Shilling, I woke up with a start, only to find myself in an unfamiliar room.
A mural on the wall was swaying in my blurry vision.
'Where am I?'
I looked around, semiconscious.
While I managed to sit up, I saw a man standing at the foot of the bed.
In his hand was a whip.
"Who are you? Where am I?" The pain in my leg reminded me that I wasn't dreaming.
My voice sounded feeble, as if I had just recovered from a serious illness.
"Wake up! Or I'll keep on whipping you until you die!"
His tone was brash and swaggering. His overwhelming Alpha scent sent a chill down my spine.
Douglas Schwartz, my foster father, was the Alpha of the Silver Lake Pack. Yet, the man in front of me seemed much more powerful.
I was half-conscious when sweat dripped into my eyes, blurring my vision.
Beside me came slow footsteps.
I raised my hand to wipe the sweat. When I jerked my head up, I met an eagle gaze.
The man was standing right beside me. The white shirt set off his tall, ramrod figure. His face was so handsome and sharp-featured that it took my breath away. Beneath his prominent nose were two thin parted lips, looking dangerously sexy.
Although it was hot in the room, there was not a drop of sweat on his face. He looked elegant and composed.
As the wound on my leg was healing, I felt less pain.
So I couldn't help staring at the Alpha in front of me. Suddenly, I felt him familiar.
But soon, I came out of my trance, cuz he raised his whip.
"Who're you? What do you wanna do?" Startled, I wanted to step back, but he just came closer.
I unconsciously tensed up my body, my blood running cold.
"Where is the baby you gave birth to?"
He said in a harsh voice as he scanned my body with his icy gaze.
"What?" I looked at him in confusion.
"Three years ago, you were pregnant with my kid. Where is the kid now?"
"Your kid?"
I was in a complete daze. It took me quite a while to calm myself down.
I explained, "Did you mistake me for someone else? I'm just an ordinary she-wolf, and I rarely leave my pack. Plus, I've never seen you."
I hadn't found my mate yet. How could I possibly have a baby?
"You're Yvette Schwartz, the adopted daughter of the Silver Lake Pack's Alpha. And you're 23. Do you want me to go through the backgrounds of your friends and family?"
When he finished speaking, I was slack-jawed.
What he said was all true.
"But I really don't know you."
"Stop playing dumb! Give me my kid, now!"
His powerful Alpha aura brought me out in a cold sweat. With a whoosh, the whip landed on my arm.
I covered the bruise and shouted, "I've never got pregnant, for God's sake. Can you please check again?"
His stare made me so nervous that I wanted to curl up.
"Fine. I'll check now!"
He flung the whip on the floor and approached me.
"How are you gonna check?" Stunned, I screamed, "Hey ... don't come over!"
He closed in on me step by step with a powerful, terrifying aura. Meanwhile, he fixed his gaze on me like a hunter who had found his prey. The look in his eyes gave me a bad feeling. Something terrible was about to happen...
"What do you wanna do? Stay away from me..."
I kept backing up until I reached the head of the bed. I had nowhere else to go now.
He swiftly climbed onto the bed and knelt before me. Then he put one hand on the headboard and pinned me against it.
His shadow completely enfolded me.
"Run a check, of course."
He uttered a sentence while staring at me without a blink.
"Even if you wanna run a check, you don't have to come this close..." Panic overtook me.
"You call this close? Yvette, you'll know what's close in a minute."
"What the hell are you talking about?"
He hungrily captured my lips. Before I could resist, he lifted my clothes with his big palm. Then, he pressed his strong body against mine, running his fingers all over it. The room was heating up, and so were our bodies...
