Chapter 3

Aвтор: Aurora
My lips trembled as I tried to speak, only to find I couldn't say anything at all.

I suddenly felt utterly ridiculous.

My parents had never liked me since childhood. They believed my birth brought bad luck.

The moment I was born, my parents' pack suffered devastating losses. Everyone thought I was cursed.

But my sister was their lucky charm.

After Stella was born, our pack's declining fortunes gradually stabilized. They even won a massive lottery the following year, solving all our financial troubles in one fell swoop.

In this family, I had always been expendable.

Until Ryan appeared.

He was like a knight rescuing a princess, saving me from the dysfunction of my birth family. When I told him about my childhood of rejection and neglect, he cried before I did.

He held me tightly, promising to love me for the rest of his life.

But in the end, he still betrayed me.

I looked at Ethan's angry little face.

Only now did I suddenly realize how much he looked like Ryan. I had never noticed it before.

Ryan held me tightly, tears streaming down his cheeks.

"Mia, Mia, don't stay silent. Let me explain."

"Fine, then explain."

His expression stiffened. Looking at me, he couldn't speak—only continued crying.

The last trace of hope in my heart died.

He wouldn't even bother to lie to me.

Remembering the Moon Goddess's words, I pushed him away.

"It's okay. Just tell me you love me."

As long as he had even a shred of guilt or genuine feeling for me—enough to let me live—I would forgive him.

His eyes brightened.

"Mia, I love..."

"Ryan, I feel terrible!"

Stella cried out suddenly, clutching her chest and collapsing to the ground in apparent pain.

"Stella!"

My parents looked panicked, their eyes filled with disgust and hatred as they turned to me.

"It's all because of you, you curse! Who told you to come back? Haven't you cursed us enough? You won't even spare your own sister!"

Ethan rushed over to punch and kick me.

"You evil woman, you jinx! Get out of my house!"

Though Ryan didn't go to her, his eyes were already looking worriedly in her direction.

All four of them cared only about Stella.

Seeing the smugness in Stella's eyes, I took two steps back.

"Since you're so worried, go to her."

"I'm sorry, Mia. She is your sister, after all. Once I make sure she's okay, I'll come explain everything to you."

Ryan looked at me with guilt, then ran to her side without looking back.

Their family of five could finally be complete.

Only I, the outsider, stood alone.

    Not only did Ryan refuse to explain the scandal, he actively sabotaged every attempt his team made to contain it.When his secretary called frantically about damage control, he hung up.When his business partners demanded explanations, he blocked their numbers.When reporters showed up at his office, he told security to let them in.He wanted the world to burn around him, just like the fire consuming his chest.By the time Stella finally woke up from her sedative-induced sleep, the sky had completely fallen.She stumbled out of the bedroom, her hair disheveled and her face puffy from crying.The moment she saw Ryan sitting calmly at the kitchen table, scrolling through his phone with dead eyes, she knew something was catastrophically wrong."Ryan?" Her voice was tentative, scared. "What's happening? Why are there so many missed calls on my phone?"He didn't even look up."Check the news."His voice was flat, emotionless.Stella grabbed her phone with trembling hands and opened the firs

    My mother fainted from the sheer force of her crying.Her legs simply gave out beneath her, and she crumpled to the floor like a broken doll."Elena! Elena!" my father shouted, dropping to his knees beside her.Everyone except Ryan scrambled to help, lifting her unconscious form and rushing toward the door."We need to get her to the hospital," my father said, his voice shaking. "This shock... it might have triggered something serious."Stella clutched Ethan protectively against her chest."What about Ryan? We can't leave him here alone."My father glanced back at Ryan, who sat motionless on the floor, staring at nothing."Especially not with Ethan," Stella continued, her voice dropping to a fearful whisper. "Did you see how he looked at him? How he grabbed his throat?"My father's expression hardened."You're right. Ryan, you're not welcome at the hospital. Figure out your own mess."They filed out one by one, leaving Ryan completely alone with his guilt.I watched him sitting dazedly

    The signal was poor during the thunderstorm, and the computer screen flickered repeatedly, loading slowly as lightning crashed outside.My father impatiently tapped the desk, his jaw clenched tight."Come on, load already! I'll show everyone what a manipulative little—"The video finally started playing.The timestamp showed it was from just hours ago. The kitchen. Ryan and Stella wrapped around each other.With just one glance at the screen, my mother's face crumpled completely."My dear Mia! How could you be so foolish!"Her voice broke on a sob, hands flying to cover her mouth as if she could take back years of cruel words.My father staggered backward several steps, his face draining of all color.He finally collapsed to the ground, his legs giving out beneath him."It can't be. Mia was a jinx—how could she just die like this?"But even as he spoke, his voice wavered with doubt and growing horror.The video continued playing. Ryan's voice echoed through the speakers, crystal clear.

    Stella frantically covered her mouth with both hands, her eyes darting around the room like a trapped animal."Mom, stop talking! She can hear us! She's in this room!"Her voice was high-pitched and shaking, bordering on hysteria.My mother's face twisted with disdain, her lips curling into the same expression of disgust I'd seen countless times growing up."So what if she hears? Does that jinx dare to defy us? It's because of her that our pack was cursed back then! Even if she's dead, she deserved it!"The venom in her voice was so pure, so absolute, that it took my breath away.Even though I was used to their hatred, even though I'd built walls around my heart to protect myself from exactly this, my numb spirit still felt a sharp stab of pain.Taking advantage of their inability to see me, I finally voiced the question that had haunted me my entire life."Dad, Mom, if you hate me so much, why didn't you just strangle me at birth?"My voice echoed in the empty air, unheard but despera

  • Alpha Mate Cheated With My Sister   Chapter 7

    Watching their panicked state, I floated quietly in the air, feeling somewhat helpless.The Moon Goddess was still too soft-hearted. She had pitied everything I endured and couldn't bear to see me die like this. So she drew out my spirit, allowing me to witness their final endings with my own eyes.It was almost poetic justice, really. After a lifetime of being invisible to them, I was now truly invisible—yet finally able to see everything clearly.Below, Ryan was still deceiving himself.After searching through every corner of the house, turning over cushions and checking behind doors like a madman, he found that all he had left was the wilting moonlight flower in the vase.The flower I had died for. The flower Ethan had destroyed. The flower Ryan had tried so desperately to save from my father's rage.Holding the vase with trembling hands, he wept uncontrollably."I'm sorry, Mia. I was wrong. Please don't play games with me anymore, come out!"His voice cracked on the last word, desp

  • Alpha Mate Cheated With My Sister   Chapter 6

    Ryan's first reaction was disbelief.He had watched me fall asleep just hours ago—otherwise he wouldn't have felt safe going to Stella.But for some reason, a voice in his heart whispered the truth.Mia was really dead.He tried to get out of bed to find me, but his hands shook so violently he couldn't even sit up.His phone slipped from his grasp, and he could still hear the officer's voice."I know this is difficult to accept, but according to DNA testing, the deceased is indeed your mate."Then the officer muttered quietly."She's been dead for seven days, and no one even reported her missing. Such a tragedy..."Stella beside him stirred, awakened by the commotion, drowsily wrapping her arms around him."What's wrong?"The moment she touched him, Ryan jerked away in shock.Like a man possessed, he rushed toward my room.Pushing open the door, the room was empty.Only a USB drive lay on the desk."No... this can't be..."Ryan's legs gave out, and he collapsed to the floor."Mia, Mia!
