In public, she was the noble daughter of the Muller family and the enviable young mistress of the Carrell family. But behind the scenes, she was a poor maid who had to wear a mask all day long and struggled for her livelihood.

Due to a conspiracy, she was forced to marry Ralph Carrell, son of the most powerful family in Northfield, in the name of Rayna Muller.

After the wedding, Ralph doted on her.

When Rayna showed up and claimed the place, she shed all her glory and left. She thought she would never see Ralph again, but Ralph took her into his arms and said, "Mrs. Carrell, you are not running away from me."

The Odd Luna Series

I ran behind Evan who was running. He was ahead of me but that wasn't a problem. I was always faster than him so I could catch up easily. I'm faster than any wolf when I'm in my human form but Evan wasn't so I grabbed him by the wrist and pulled him as I ran. He stumbled, but quickly got used to the speed and was able to keep up.

I gasped as we entered the forest. The thick canopy of trees made it so it was almost pitch black, but thanks to my enhanced vision, I was able to manage getting past the trees. I ran faster as I heard heavy crunching of leaves from the wolf that was behind us.

The running lasted for a good ten minutes before I finally stopped to gasp for air. My lungs took in the oxygen greedily. I listened closely to my surroundings, making sure that we were no longer being followed.
