Penulis: Ella
I don't know how much time had passed when the sound of arguing between Garrett and his grandfather woke me up.

I realized I was back in the hospital.

Seeing me awake, Garrett seemed relieved.

He looked at his grandfather with displeasure.

"This is the wonderful mate you picked for me. Our child was just born and she's already running off to date other Alphas."

The old Alpha trembled with rage.

"What date? Do you have any idea what Aria was doing yesterday..."

"Grandfather."

I interrupted him.

"It's all in the past."

The old Alpha understood my meaning and said no more.

He just looked at Garrett with disappointment and fury.

Garrett waved his hand dismissively.

"She's awake now, so there's nothing for me here. Scarlett is waiting for me. I'm leaving."

The old Alpha struck out with his walking stick. "You beast."

"I don't care where you go today, but tomorrow you must come to the estate with Aria..."

Before he could finish, Garrett had already disappeared from the doorway.

The old Alpha sighed deeply, his back bending even more.

He handed me the signed unbinding agreement.

"Aria, it's my fault for not raising my heir properly."

"But that child was your flesh and blood too. I hope you can see him off one last time."

Looking at this white-haired old man, I couldn't bring myself to refuse.

The next morning, I arrived at the Blackwood estate dressed in black.

This child had been conceived with my life.

It was just a pity that before I could even hold him, the rogue wolves had already torn him from my belly and ripped him to pieces.

I gently wiped away the tears from my eyes.

This was for the best.

At least without attachments, I wouldn't be reluctant to leave.

I had given everything I had to this relationship.

This departure brought only exhaustion, no regret.

Garrett never showed up, even for the child's burial.

Instead, I saw photos on social media of him and Scarlett trying on Luna ceremony dresses.

Scarlett smugly sent me a message.

"So what if you had his child? Garrett still chose me in the end."

"Oh, by the way, did you think Garrett was taking care of you while you were unconscious? Actually, he was with me the whole time. We tried many new positions in the bed right next to yours."

In the video, I lay pale and unconscious in my hospital bed.

While Garrett and a glowing Scarlett writhed together naked.

I didn't reply. I silently forwarded all the messages and videos to the old Alpha.

Then I left the Luna ring Garrett had given me at the Blackwood house.

Holding my mother's ashes, I whispered softly, "Mom, we're going home."

...

It wasn't until nightfall that Garrett returned to the Blackwood estate, reeking of alcohol.

As soon as he pushed open the door, he was startled to see everyone dressed in black suits with white ribbons.

"Who died? Was it Aria's mother?"

He looked panicked and confused.

"Why didn't anyone tell me about something this important? Where's Aria? She must be heartbroken. I need to go comfort her."

The old Alpha, unable to bear it any longer, threw the unbinding agreement right at Garrett's face.

"Aria has already left with her mother's ashes."

"Today was your son's funeral!"

    Over the past seven years, the old Alpha had been respectful and caring toward me.Both emotionally and logically, I should see him one last time.I set aside my grievances with Garrett and rushed back to the Blackwood house overnight.The familiar mansion felt cold and empty. Pack members moved quietly through the halls, their faces grave.The old Alpha on his deathbed was experiencing his final rally.His aged face was filled with worry. His breathing was labored, each word a struggle."Aria, I've wronged you. The Blackwood family has wronged you."His voice cracked with genuine remorse.

    After a long journey, I finally returned to my hometown that I hadn't seen in years.The familiar streets greeted me like old friends. The same corner store where I used to buy candy as a child. The same bus stop where I waited every morning for school.Everything here remained the same.Time seemed to have pressed pause in this place.Even after so many years away, it looked exactly like the hometown in my memories.As I dragged my single suitcase down the cobblestone path, Mrs. Brown appeared at her garden gate.Her eyes widened in recognition before breaking into the warmest smile I'd seen in months."Aria! Is that really you?"She dropped her watering can and rushed over to embrace me.My neighbor Mrs. Brown was both surprised and delighted to see me."Look at you! Still as beautiful as ever, but so thin. Have you been eating properly?"Her motherly fussing brought tears to my eyes.She enthusiastically helped me clean up the old house.Dust covered every surface. Cobwebs hung in t

    Garrett's face changed dramatically. The color drained from his skin as he saw his grandfather collapse.He rushed the old Alpha to the hospital, his hands shaking as he carried the frail body."Help! Someone help!" he screamed as he burst through the emergency room doors.The entire Blackwood household was thrown into chaos.Pack members called each other frantically. Servants wept in the hallways. Beta wolves paced anxiously outside the intensive care unit.After a night of emergency treatment, the old man was finally out of immediate danger.The head doctor emerged from the operating room, exhaustion written on his face."We've stabilized him for now. But his heart is weak. The stress has taken a severe toll."But he had fallen into a coma. No one knew when he might wake up."Will he... will he make it?" Garrett asked, his voice barely a whisper."That depends on his will to fight. And what he has to live for."The doctor's words hit Garrett like a physical blow.Garrett stood at th

    The old Alpha's emotions, suppressed until now, finally exploded.Years of disappointment and grief poured out like a broken dam.He pointed at Garrett and roared:"That little lover of yours sold Aria's information to the enemy rogue wolves!""What?" Garrett's eyebrows furrowed. "That's impossible.""She led them straight to Aria and her mother. Your child couldn't be saved because of it.""Scarlett gave them Aria's location, her schedule, even when she would be most vulnerable. She planned it all!""Her mother was also tortured and killed by those rogue wolves."Tears streamed down the old man's face."An innocent woman died protecting her daughter and grandchild. And you were in bed with the one who caused it all.""Garrett, all of this is your doing!"The accusation hung in the air like a death sentence.Garrett stood frozen in disbelief.His mouth opened and closed several times before any sound came out."You're lying. Scarlett wouldn't... she couldn't..."But even as he spoke, d
