Monica POV:

I could hear Sara clearly, but I couldn’t open my eyes.

I feel the blood flow to the upper part of my body. When it flew through my internal organs, I thought I will be boiled.

Sara kept slapping my face to wake me up. However, I still felt pain and suffocation in my body, and it became more and more serious. I squeezed my trembling fist to fight against it. At this time, I suddenly felt that there was a heat flow in my belly, and it flew to my throat.

“Ah…”

I cried out. The pain and the heat seemed to disappear in a moment. However, I was still weak, so I was still on the ground.

“Moni, are you alright? Say something, Moni!”

I gasped and suddenly felt very cold. I could only hold Sara tightly and said weakly, “Sara, can you give me a quilt? I’m cold.”

“Wait!” When Sara heard me, she immediately helped me up. “Can you get up? Let me help you lie on the bed.”

I nodded, stood up with Sara’s help, walked to the bed, and lay down.

“Do you still feel ill?”

I want to say I’m fine, but my body kept twitching, so I could only shake my head.

“See. I told you. You are so impulsive!” Sara was about to cry. Her eyes were red. “Everything will be fine even if your sister can’t be with Norman. But if you have this medicine, you may die! Are you willing to sacrifice yourself for their love?”

Lying on the bed for a while, I felt much better. Holding Sara’s hand, I said, “Don’t worry. I’m fine. Please don’t cry. I did it of my own free will. I won’t blame anyone.”

“Moni, you don’t have to sacrifice yourself. Don’t you like Norman? Why don’t you try to pursue your love?”

I shook my head, “I can’t. It’s my fate.”

At the thought of Norman’s gentle smile when he opened the door for my sister, I couldn’t ruin their relationship.

Although Isabella treats me badly, she is my sister anyway. I can’t ruin their wedding because of my smell.

They doom to be a couple, and I’m just an outsider.

Sara sobbed silently, holding my cold hand to warm me.

Until the sun rose to the middle of the sky, I began to feel better. I no longer felt dizzy, but more energic.

Sara prepared some bread for me. After I ate it, I said goodbye to her and returned home.

I stood in the forest and smelled my own smell again. I didn’t think it was different from before.

“Will it work?”

I came home with puzzlement. As soon as I entered the door, I saw Isabella angrily sitting on the sofa.

“Isa? Why are you home?” I was curious, “Didn’t you go out with Norman?”

“Forget it!” Isabella said angrily, “Someone unknown suddenly called Norman. He said that one of Norman’s friends was in the hospital. He asked Norman to the hospital immediately. So, I had to go home.”

Suddenly she paused, walked up to me, and sniffed, “Where have you been? Why do you smell differently?”

I clenched my fists nervously and became extremely stiff. I said nervously, “No, I didn’t go anywhere. I just went to buy a gift for Uncle Martin in return.”

Isabella didn’t trust me. She frowned and stared at me, “You are lying. You didn’t go to buy a gift. Did you run into the forest to dig herbs for Uncle Martin as a return gift? I smell the scent of soil. You can’t hide it from me!”

My mother, who walked up to me with the list of guests, immediately scolded me, “Monica! You lied to me again! You are a bad girl! Can’t you learn from your sister? Look how elegant your sister is! Look at you! I think you are a hooligan!”

She reached out and pinched my ears, “The whole family is working hard for Isa’s wedding. How could you still fool around and bring such an unpleasant smell? Do you really care about Isa? She’s your sister!”

My mother pinched my ears hard. I felt that she almost plucked out my ears.

I cried and begged, “Mom, please let go of me. It hurts!”

“You need to feel the pain, or you won’t know you are wrong.” My mother shook me off and said, “Isa is so busy. Look how tired she is! She will have a wedding soon. Do you want her to get married like this? Come to help her! You selfish sister!”

My mother pushed me, and I fell on the sofa. At this time, my father stopped my mother.

“Aisha, Moni has grown up. If you treat her like this, you will damage her self-esteem.”

“Then go back to your room and wash off your foul smell!” The mother hummed disdainfully, and then sat down with my sister with enthusiasm, “Isa, check the guest list again to see if you need to add anyone else.”

I touched my ears. It still hurt. Then I walked up to the second floor with my head down.

Isabella smiled at my mother when she saw that I had closed the door. She said, “I’ll make a phone call to ask who else wants to come.”

Then she stood up and walked out of the corridor.

“Hello, is this John? It’s me. I need you to check something. It’s about my sister.”

Back in the room, I took baths, again and again, trying to cover up the so-called smell of the forest.

My father told me that Matin would take me to visit the Black Moon Pack. I worried that he would smell the strange scent.

The next morning, I changed my clothes as soon as possible and went downstairs.

When I opened the door and tried to find Martin, I bumped into a man’s chest.

“Ah…”

I was nearly knocked to the ground. The man immediately grabbed my wrist and helped me up.

“Be careful!”

I felt that I was being held by someone. I could even smell the perfume on his body, and... the attractive smell that belongs to mate.

It was Norman.

I hurriedly tried to jump away because I feared Isabella. Norman refused to let me go and got closer.

“Norman,” I was so nervous that I shrank. I tried to stay away from Norman, who almost sticked to my body. “What are you doing?”

Norman didn't stop. He leaned close to my neck and sniffed. He frowned, “Moni, Why do you smell differently?”

Hearing Norman’s words, my hair almost stood up with fear.

What’s wrong with Sara’s medicine?

Didn’t it cover up the smell? Why did everyone say that my smell was different?

Just then, I saw Martin approaching. I immediately shouted, “Uncle Martin! I’m here!”

When Norman turned around, I immediately ran to Martin and pulled him into the car in a hurry. Then I gave a sigh of relief.

Martin looked at my sneaky look and smiled, “Did you go to seduce Norman? You look nervous!”

“Stop talking nonsense!”

When the car started, I saw from the rearview mirror that Norman walk to Isabella. Then I blinked my sore eyes.

When I came back, he should have married Isabella, right?

Martin beside him suddenly said, “Moni, if you want to stay here, I don’t mind parking.”

Martin was looking down on me!

“I don’t want to stay here!” I turned to look at him, “I’m just wondering how to spend all your money to eat.”

Martin laughed, “This is an impossible task.”

He took me to a golf course, prepared clothes for me, and even helped me fine a coach.

When I just picked up a golf club, his Beta Arthur came up and said, “Alpha, Norman Cooper is outside the court. He said he wants to see Ms. Green.”

Me?

I was shocked and looked up at Martin subconsciously.

Martin was not as calm as before. He frowned slightly.

Norman could not come in if Martin didn’t say anything. I gently reminded him, “Uncle Martin, can Norman come in?”

Martin regained his consciousness and nodded.

Why did Norman come here? He should discuss the wedding details with my sister.

Did he find anything?

I was in a panic, and Norman ran to us.

I suddenly became really nervous. Therefore, I subconsciously grasped Martin’s sleeve. I didn’t find that he was still frowning. He looked more anxious than just now.

“Monica!” Norman rushed to me and hugged me, “I smell it! Moni, it’s really you!”

Norman gazed at me excitedly with tears in his eyes, “I finally confirm it! I just smelled the smell of mate on you! I knew you must be my mate. My Moni! You are mine!”

I was shocked.

How could Norman smell the scent of mate on me?

Didn’t they say I smelled differently? How could it happen?

I pushed Norman’s hand away in panic and retorted, “How, how could it be? You must make a mistake. How could I be your mate? Isabella is your mate!”

“No!” Norman grabbed my arms again and refused to let me go. “I’m sure you are my mate. I never smell such an attractive scent on Isabella. You are my mate!”
