A second chance?
Janet didn’t know how to respond to this. Nor did she see this coming.
“Why do you want to get back with me anyway? And what about Harper?” Janet asked.
Daran frowned, “What about her? I am talking about us.
||
“Weren’t you in love with her?” Janet questioned, “You only married me because I am your mate. Your
heart was with Harper. I thought you were going to marry her right after I was gone…But why didn’t you
do it?”
The furrow between Daran’s brows grew deeper.
“Nonsense. Who told you that I have feelings for Harper?” he asked.
‘…Everyone,” Janet said.
Hellen and Paul had never stopped telling Janet how much she didn’t deserve Daran ever since they
were married.
And Harper just loved to show off to her how intimate she and Daran were.
“If you weren’t his mate. He would definitely marry me instead. You snatched my loved one, Janet!”
These were Harper’s exact words.
And Daran had been nothing but cold and aloof with her, which further confirmed Janet’s theory–that
Daran only married her because they were mates.
“Well, they are lying! Or maybe they didn’t know me at all!” Daran growled frustratedly, “I never loved
Harper. I only thought of her as my sister—”
“But she said that she was going to be your Luna!”
“I never agreed to that!” Daran snapped, “The only woman I have ever loved is you, Janet. And I won’t
make any other women my Luna, except you. I am sorry for treating you coldly once before… But I will
make it up for you.”
Janet felt like the fate had played a big joke with her.
When she was still married to Daran, all she ever wanted in life was for him to love her back. She was
willing to give up anything in life in exchange of Daran’s heart.
It was too late now. however
Taking in a deep breath, Janet said with an aloof tone, “I don’t need you to make it up
for me because I don’t care anymore. And frankly, I don’t want to be
your Luna either. I am a Gamma now. My life has a purpose, and it is a much more thrilling life
compared to the life I had when I was your Luna. I won’t give that up for you.”
“And you don’t have to!” Daran said eagerly, “You can still be Blood Moon Pack’s Gamma. This can
work!”
“This won’t work! And the most important thing is–I don’t love you anymore!”
Janet cried that out and held her breath waiting for Daran’s reaction.
Daran’s face turned dark instantly.
He narrowed his eyes at Janet as anger flickered across his face.
After a little pause, he asked deeply, “Who do you love then?”
“…What are you talking about?” NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.
“Who is your loved one now, Janet!” Daran demanded strongly, “Your soldier? The boy named Kass?
Or Silver Claw Pack’s Alpha Jared?”
His aggressive attitude pissed Janet off and she started to get mad.
“NO ONE!”
She snapped wrenching the car door open.
“And even if I do love somebody, it is none of your fu cking business!”
She got into the car and wanted to slam the door shut. But Daran grabbed the door frame forcefully.
“I won’t give up, Janet. I always get what I want in life. And you…are no exception,”
he said.
“Oh yeah? Then it is time for you to grow up and learn about losing. I am happy to be your lesson one!”
Janet shut the door with a huge noise and stomped on the gas furiously. The car raced away leaving
Daran behind.

The Diaz returned to their house with a panic expression on their faces.
As soon as the door closed, Hellen immediately turned to her husband and demanded, “We have
missed tax bills? Is that true? Or was Alpha Daran bluffing us?”
Paul looked exhausted.
He tossed his jacket on the floor and slumped down on to his seat.
“What do you know about business?” he said impatiently.
“Just tell me if it is true!”
Hellen’s high–pitched voice startled Paul. He jerked up and roared to his wife, “Stop yelling at me you
stupid bitch! Yes, I NEVER paid any tax! And it is the sole reason we can acquire this much wealth in
such a short time!”
His confession shocked everyone.
“Are you crazy, father?” John gasped, “Tax evasion is a serious crime! We can all end up in jail! You
have to close the money gap, father. QUICK!”
“With what money then, smart ass?” Paul sneered and squinted at his son, “We had no savings left!
Shall we sell this house? Or shall we sell all of your fancy sports cars?”
John’s sports car collection was his everything. He quickly shook his head in panic, “No! Not my cars!”
“God! What will others think of us! Are we down to the point of selling up?” Hellen covered her face and
wailed, “All my friends will laugh at us! This family–the Diaz family is doomed!”
The living room was filled with John’s panic voice and Hellen’s desperate cries.
Paul clenched his fists with a vein popping on his forehead and bellowed, “SHUT UP!
Stop crying! NOW! Let me fu cking think for a moment!”
Owen looked around his desperate families and sneered, “I don’t understand why you are all freaking
out. This issue is quite easy to fix to me.”
There was a moment of silence in the room.
Hellen looked up from her palms with teary eyes and asked shakily, “W–What do you mean, son?”
“You all heard the Alpha today. He had found out about our tax issue a long time ago. But he never said
anything till today. Why?” Owen asked.
Paul rubbed his chin, pondering, “You think Alpha Daran has been cutting us a slack? Because of
Harper?”
Owen nodded, “Exactly. When Harper was around, Alpha considered us families. The tax issue was
basically nothing. So what we should do now is to fix our relationship with the Alpha.”
Hellen twisted her fingers nervously, “But how? Alpha is hot with that freeloader Janet now. And we
have lost Harper already…”
She had a moment of regret—Was it too soon to give up on Harper?
He straightened himself up and added with a confident smile, “Yes. I am talking about me.”
Hellen and Paul exchanged a shocking look as John gasped in disbelief, “You? Didn’t you just get
kicked out of the patrol team? How are you going to become Alpha Daran’s right hand?”
His firm words madé Hellen and Paul excited.
Paul stood up from the couch and said to Owen, “Here is my son! Tell me. What do you need to get into
Alpha’s army?”
“The army isn’t recruiting new members now. But I bet this rule can be bent if we bribe the right
person.”
Owen said with a smile.
“I heard that Gamma Baron is a very reasonable man. I am sure he will appreciate my talent if I go to
him with money. It will be a small amount to pay compared to
our tax bill.”
Paul gritted his teeth. After pondering for a while, he nodded firmly, “Let’s do it son. I will prepare the
money and you can pay Gamma Baron a visit tonight!”
“What money? I thought we are broke,” John grumbled.
