Melissa's POV

Chapter 6: The Approach of a Dangerous Individual

I drifted through a hazy week, and Phoebe, unable to bear my state any longer, dragged me to a regional gathering.

"I never imagined you could look so beautiful!"

As she zipped up my gown, Phoebe gasped dramatically.

She sent me off in her husband's luxury car before hastily taking the driver's seat herself.

"Elliott must be worried that other werewolves are eyeing you, which is why he always has you wearing those baggy hoodies."

I didn't respond to her question; Elliott indeed disliked it when I wore makeup.

He always believed that being natural was best, even when attending events like this, he preferred me not to dress too sexy.

"I have to say, you handled the Courteney issue quite well. Unless something unexpected happens, you can completely forget about those two."

Phoebe spoke with a sense of righteousness, but I no longer cared.

"Let them be; tonight I just want to drink and dance."

Arriving at the venue, I felt much more at ease looking at the diverse crowd.

"At least Elliott knew to resist for a while; our guy went off with the other woman that same day and didn't get out of bed until the following afternoon." Handing me a glass of champagne, Phoebe smiled.

"Many of the female werewolves here are just victims of fate."

As she said this, she pulled me in for a selfie.

To my surprise, everyone fell silent when they saw me, their expressions oddly strange.

Through their whispered conversations, I learned that Elliott had brought Courteney to the event.

He had previously told me he disliked such occasions, but now it seemed he simply felt I wasn't worthy.

"Hey! My beautiful ladies!"/

Kala Kaslana swayed toward us, clearly having had a few drinks.

Phoebe introduced me; her situation was similar to ours, but she appeared to have a

much clearer understanding of fate.

"So this is Elliott's Luna? Much more beautiful than the slut he brought today. Ugh, this damned fate really knows how to drag us beautics all down." She gulped down her drink as she spoke.

I shrugged nonchalantly; after all, I hadn't interacted with Elliott for over a month.

Even knowing they were at the event, I couldn't be bothered to think about them.

Elliott, on the other hand, had desperately tried to contact me a few times, whether through telepathy or inadvertently appearing in front of me, but I hadn't even spared him a glance.

I had to admit that just by looking at my appearance, I had become the center of attention. at the dinner.

Tall and slender, with long limbs and a meticulously made-up face that was more than enough to captivate.

My long hair was swept up, revealing a smooth forehead, and my fair, radiant skin exuded youthful energy.

Phoebe had complimented me countless times, reminding me that even after five years and having a child, I was still in my early twenties.

As I sensed a man approaching, I instinctively sat up straight, my gaze fixed on him.

Some people just had that innate ability to draw attention.

Sure enough, he reached my side and gestured for an invitation.

Rather than feeling nervous, I felt surprisingly relaxed.

His sensual, red-brown curls paired with deep blue eyes indicated that he was no ordinary local werewolf.

His muscular back formed an elegant curve, brimming with dynamism and tension.

"Reject him, Melissa!"

Elliott's voice echoed in my mind, tinged with barely concealed anger.

"Hello, Miss. I'm the Alpha of Rushford District."

The man took my hand and placed a courteous kiss on it.

"Atrias Elliotson? You should refer to me as 'Madam.

I frowned slightly, pulling my hand away while managing a polite smile.

They say you are a very clever Luna, and it certainly seems that way. We only met once.

before at a special mission briefing."

Seeing his intention to invite me to dance, I recalled the music I loved playing in the background.

Slowly rising to my feet, I took Atrias's arm under Phoebe's meaningful gaze and made my way to the dance floor.

Although I felt a bit rusty in my movements, Atrias took great care of me.

"Is Rushford planning to join us in resisting that dark Alpha?"

To prevent me from bumping into anyone, Atrias held my hand firmly, but it had been so long since I had danced properly that I often misstepped. "Leaving such a clever Luna aside, that guy is so foolish I can't help but laugh."

Atrias did not hide his admiration in his gaze as he caressed my arm.

"I don't think you should go looking for trouble. If we could unite against him, the entire Northeast and West wouldn't fall so quickly."

After hearing my words, Atrias nodded and then shook his head.

"It seems you have more ideas. With everything going on lately, why don't you join me in Rushford sometime and discuss it in detail?"

I could clearly feel his grip tightening around my waist.

"Are you out of your mind, letting him get so close to you? I'm going to spank you you get back!"

when

Elliott's voice echoed in my mind, and I could almost envision his furious expression.

"Let me think it over."

I flashed him a radiant smile and, keeping with the rhythm, created some distance. between us.

His surprise at my refusal was evident, but he didn't say anything further.

Instead, he took the rose from the server and placed it in my hands.

It had been a long time since I felt such tenderness, and my heart skipped a beat.

"I sincerely hope we can become friends."

He affectionately tucked a stray lock of hair behind my ear, and I could only ignore Elliott's continuous outbursts one after another.

Fully absorbed in the moment of tender care, I couldn't help but feel a longing for such delicate warmth, indulging in thoughts of greedily cherishing it. 10.1%

I thought Atrias was joking, but his expression was incredibly serious.

"But you must return to Rushford, right? How can we truly become friends?"

Seeing my curiosity, Atrias gently licked his fangs

"I still have some matters to handle here, and perhaps I can find more allies."

Taking the rose, I inhaled its fragrance lightly.

Atrias... perhaps I should refer to him as "Cold-faced Zek."

Apart from Sebastian Agrigent, he was a notorious figure known throughout several regions.

His deadly presence was powerful enough to drive Sebastian's army from its territory!

His ease in approaching me suggested he had other intentions.

When I returned to the table of my sisters, I was taken aback by the sight of Kala's swollen face.

"Did your Alpha actually lay a hand on you?"

Tears filled her eyes as she leaned against Phoebe for support.

"It's just as well you two are still okay. Their fights always end up affecting me, and I bear the brunt of their anger. I hold the title of Luna, yet I can't just walk away. No one would care about my well-being. Our existence is truly laughable!" Kala's words lingered in my mind even after I left the venue and returned home.

I was so lost in thought that I didn't notice when I stepped into the bedroom.

The moment I stepped in, Elliott seized me by the neck with a claw and slammed me to the ground.

"Melissa, how could you do this? How could you hurt me like this? What has happened between us that you felt the need to go this far?"
