LOGINSix months later, with Emma egging me on, I finally accepted Damien's proposal.He prepared a wedding of the century that shocked the world."I do."As I said those words, thousands of white rose petals rained down from the sky.Damien lifted my veil. His eyes reflected my smile, which was finally free of any shadow."You are mine, Aria."He lowered his head and kissed me in front of the entire Royal family and every Alpha present.On the lawn, Noah, dressed in a little suit, was holding hands with four-year-old Leo and Mia."Charge! Get the bouquet!" The three kids rolled around in the sea of flowers, their laughter ringing out crisp and clear.My sister Emma stood behind me, arranging my long train."Tired?" A gentle voice asked. A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses handed Emma a glass of warm water.He was the Royal Head Healer and Emma's current suitor."Thanks." My sister took the water, flashing him a shy, gentle smile.Outside the manor gates, a beat-up black sedan was parked.Ins
But Lucas didn't give up. For the past two weeks, he waited on Noah's route home from school every day.He didn't dare approach the kid, only hiding behind trees to peek.With that scruffy, wasted look—who was he trying to impress with that performance?Emma reached her breaking point. She slapped Lucas hard across the face. "Get lost!! Lucas, do you not understand English? Stop following me like a damn stalker!"Lucas's head snapped to the side, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.Instead of getting angry, he acted like a child who’d done something wrong, humbly tugging at her sleeve."Emma... let me see Noah... just one look...""See what? Every time he sees you, he relives the nightmare of being eaten alive by rogues?" My sister threw his hand off, looking at him with absolute disgust.Lucas's face went pale. He stumbled back, eyes red."I know I was wrong... I really know...""Emma, what do you want me to do? What can I do for you to forgive me?""Just say the word, I'll
Emma looked coldly at her ex-husband kneeling on the ground.She bent down, picked up Noah, and patted his back gently. "Did you hear that? My son told you to get lost."Beside him, Evan knelt on the ground, staring at the twins hiding behind me, peeking at him timidly.Those were the children he had dreamed of day and night."Aria..." Evan looked up, begging humbly, "Give me a chance... let me atone...""Atone?" I laughed.I waved my hand and ordered the guards behind me. "Clear out this trash."These guards were the elite Royal warriors Damien had left for us.For three years, Evan and Lucas's wolves had withered and weakened because of the broken mate bonds. They were no match for these soldiers.Evan and Lucas had no choice but to leave. But they wouldn't let it go.Half a month later, at the Alpha Auction Gala, Evan found me again and blocked the entrance to the banquet hall."Step aside." I didn't even bother to look at him, holding my sister's arm as I tried to walk past."Pleas
Three years later, in the Silver Moon Pack.For the past three years, Evan and Lucas had done nothing but drink, completely neglecting Pack affairs."Alpha, if you don't attend the meeting, the Elders are going to initiate the impeachment process."The Beta assistant knelt on the floor, trembling."Get out." Evan closed his eyes, his mind filled with the image of my lips mouthing those final words before I jumped off the cliff."Wait." The Beta didn't leave. Instead, he shuffled forward on his knees, holding an envelope above his head."An intel broker from the dark web... sent a photo."Evan didn't move. He had received thousands of fake leads over the last three years."Alpha, this one is different..." The Beta's voice shook. "There are children. Two toddlers about three years old, and a six-year-old boy."Children?Evan snapped his eyes open and snatched the envelope.The photo slid out. A familiar profile, bundled in a thick down jacket, looking down to wipe a little girl's mouth.
Half a month ago.The second Emma and I hit the water, Damien pulled us out.He was the Lycan King, the sole ruler of the werewolf royalty.At that moment, however, he was kneeling on the wet floor of a submarine, carefully cradling the back of my head.Damien grabbed a blanket and wrapped my unconscious sister and me up tight."I told you. All you have to do is ask, and I'll catch the sky if it falls."Five months later.In the garden of the royal private island, Damien was wearing a rumpled linen shirt, clumsily holding garden shears.He was pruning my favorite red rose bush, his movements as stiff as if he were defusing a bomb."The climate here is good for the pregnancy."Damien wiped the sweat from his forehead and turned to look at me.His gaze landed on my huge baby bump, his eyes turning incredibly careful."The due date is next week. The medical team is ready."He paused and pointed to the lawn in the distance."I arranged a Royal Combat Instructor for Emma's son, Noah. That k
One hour later."Let me go! I am the future Luna! You can't do this to me!" Sophia's shrill screams echoed through the damp dungeon.Bang—!Evan grabbed her by the hair and slammed her against the blood-stained wall like a dead dog."Future Luna?" Evan's boot ground down hard on Sophia's fingers. "You're still dreaming at a time like this?""Ah—!! My hand!"Sophia convulsed in pain, her free hand frantically clawing at Evan's pant leg."Evan! Listen to me!""Aria framed me! That video is fake!""I am your Seer! I saved your lives! How can you believe that jealous woman over me?""Shut up."Lucas stepped out of the shadows.He was toying with a barbed torture instrument coated in silver dust. It was a tool designed specifically for traitors.Silver dust in the bones caused excruciating pain."Seer?" Lucas sneered.He suddenly raised the weapon and drove it hard into Sophia's left shoulder! The barbs sank in, and blood sprayed."Ahhhhh—!!" Sophia's scream nearly pierced our eardrums.Luc
