Chapter 6

Author: Mountain River
Daniel kept shaking his head at my accusations, his voice trembling with panic.

“I… I never told them to treat you like that.

“Rosie, you have to believe me!”

His excuses sounded weak and hollow.

The guards had already confessed everything. It was all Jessica’s doing. But so what?

Would they have dared to go that far without his silent approval?

I looked at him calmly and said, my voice cold but steady, “Daniel, I’m dying.

“I’m begging you. Just don’t come near me for the little time I have left. I don’t want to see you again.”

I only wanted to leave this world quietly, without him haunting my last days.

“Rosie, I’m sorry!” he blurted out, gripping my hand tightly, his emotions breaking through. “Three years ago, I should have never sent you to Silver Prison!”

It was the first time I’d ever heard him say those words, but they didn’t stir anything inside me.

I gently pulled my hand free and stared at him coldly. “It’s too late.”

“Daniel, if the Moon Goddess gave me another

  • After Silver Prison   Chapter 7

    It was a bright, sunny afternoon when Daniel brought a wheelchair to my bedside and gently pushed me to Silver Prison.The moment we reached the gates, the familiar stench of blood and decay hit me. My body trembled uncontrollably, cold dread rushing from the soles of my feet all the way to the top of my head.Daniel sensed my fear. He patted my hand, his voice softer than I’d ever heard it. “It’s okay, Rosie. I’m here.”I didn’t answer. My body still remembered how to be afraid, but my soul had long since gone numb.He pushed me inside.The first thing I saw was Jessica, chained and hanging from the ceiling. Her skin was a mess of whip marks and open wounds, proof that she’d been living through hell these last few days.Seeing Daniel, her eyes lit up like she’d spotted a savior. She screamed, her voice desperate, “Daniel! Make them let me down… I can’t take this anymore…”Daniel’s gaze was like ice, though.“This is only the beginning. Every ounce of pain Rosie suffered, I’ll

    Seeing me remain silent, Jessica’s expression shifted to one of wounded innocence. She turned toward Daniel, who had just come downstairs, her voice trembling.“Daniel, I was only trying to talk to Rosie, to persuade her not to disappear again. I didn’t mean anything else. Is she still angry with me?”Daniel immediately frowned, his tone sharp as he barked at me. “Enough! Rosie, stop being so willful!”My body was already weak; I didn’t want to argue with either of them anymore.Daniel seemed ready to say something else, but his phone rang. Without looking at me, he strode toward the study, speaking into the phone as he disappeared inside.The moment he was gone, Jessica’s pitiful mask vanished. In its place was pure venom. She raised her hand, fury flashing in her eyes, and swung at my face.This time, however, I wasn’t the same person who had stood there and taken it in Silver Prison.Just as her palm was about to strike, I shot up my hand and grabbed her wrist in a steel

    Through the chaos around me, I vaguely caught sight of a familiar figure forcing his way through the crowd.That face, always so cold, now wore panic for the first time. His lips were moving, shouting my name.“Rosie! Rosie!”This had to be a hallucination. After all, he couldn’t possibly care whether I lived or died.As my consciousness drifted, I slipped into a long, endless dream.In the dream, I was a young pup again, trailing after Daniel like a little shadow, my small voice calling out, “Daniel, wait for me!”He would stop under the sunlight, turn around with an exasperated look, and secretly press a piece of candy into my palm. Then, he said in a mock-annoyed tone, “Here. Now quit following me.”I always followed him anyway, and he never truly shook me off.Then the dream shifted to that rainy night three years ago.Daniel, now a grown up, held me close, his burning kiss falling on my forehead as he whispered, “Rosie, will you become my mate?”I’d thought all my year

    The next morning, Daniel appeared with a beautiful white evening gown. “There’s a banquet tonight. You’re coming with me.”A banquet?Before my Beta father died, I’d attended countless events like that. However, I no longer knew how to be around crowds.Instinctively, I tried to refuse. “Alpha, can I not go? You should take Jessica instead.”His eyes went cold instantly.“My business partner values family and responsibility. In his view, only an Alpha with stability and a mate can be trusted.“Rosie, don’t forget you’re still my mate. You made mistakes, but you’ve been punished. Attending this banquet with me is still your duty.”That same icy look he’d given me three years ago, when he thought I’d pushed Jessica, was back.A tremor ran through me, and I blurted an apology. “I’m sorry, Alpha. I’ll be good and do whatever you need. Just don’t send me back.”He gave a satisfied hum. “Show up at your best and don’t screw it up.”Night fell, and the banquet hall blazed with lig

    As soon as Daniel brought me home, a figure instantly greeted us.It was Jessica. Wearing a pearl-toned luxury lace nightgown, she sashayed right in front of me.“Rosie, you’re finally back?” Each word dripped like sugar laced with venom. “You’ve lost so much weight. Are you okay?”I said nothing, my eyes staying glued to the floor.When I didn’t respond, her smile dropped, and she slipped seamlessly into her tragedy performance.“At least you came back. My poor unborn pup never even got the chance to see the world.”Right on cue, a tear slid from the corner of her eye.Daniel’s hand shot out, gripping my chin and forcing me to look at Jessica. “Did you hear what Jessica said?“Three years ago, if you hadn’t pushed her out of jealousy, that pup would still be alive. That pup would have been my heir.”The word “pup” hit me like a hammer.“I’m sorry. Losing a pup is painful,” I said hoarsely. “But I didn’t push Jessica. There must be some misunderstanding…”A flicker of guil
