When I see Reese Chapman again, it is exactly three years after I sever our mate bond. It is also the third year since I completely seal my wolf and hide at the edge of the Shadow pack territory, living as an insignificant healer. Tonight, the air in the clinic feels heavy and icy under his overwhelming aura. He carries a lightly injured female companion in his arms and forcibly takes over the best VIP ward in the clinic. During my shift, he summons me three times through his guards. The first time, he coldly orders, "There are wolfsbane fragments on the bedsheets. Change them." I send an apprentice herbalist to handle it. Two hours later, he has a nurse relay another order. "The smell of medicine is too strong. Change it again." I suppress the urge to suddenly break down and arrange for someone to take care of it. At 2:00 am, he reaches me through our mind-link. "The sheets are dirty. Come up and change them." I instinctively block him and refuse calmly. "Sorry, Alpha Reese. The staff responsible for cleaning have already gone to rest." In the darkness, a cruel chuckle comes from the man. In a tone that allows no refusal, he murmurs, "Then you come and change them yourself."

Can't Slip From His Grip Chapter 8
When I woke up again, I almost thought I had arrived in heaven. Everything around me was white, and the air carried a faint scent of moonlit flowers."You're awake? You're awake! Healer!" A familiar voice exploded near my ear, trembling with a choked, tearful tone.I struggled to open my eyes and saw a scruffy, haggard face staring back at me. It was Reese.He had lost a lot of weight, and his eyes were sunken. He looked even weaker than I, the patient.When he saw me open my eyes, the once arrogant Alpha buried his face in my palm and started bawling like a pup."I'm sorry… I'm so sorry, Elara…"I tried to pull my hand back, but I had no strength at all. "You know… everything?"While looking at him weakly, I gently wiped the tears from his face with my fingers."I'd almost rather you had actually abandoned me…" he mumbled."What nonsense are you talking about?" I frowned, displeased. There was no way I could have abandoned him.Reese lifted his head suddenly, roughly wiped h

Reese saw that rainy night three years ago, of me kneeling at Caleb's feet and begging him through my tears."Please, save Reese!"With a cruel smile on his face, Caleb held a vial of his own blood in his hand. "Of course I can, but I need something in return."Without hesitation, I looked up and said, "I'll do anything. Whatever it takes. Just save him!""Give me your wolf essence, and I'll give you the blood."In the memory, I nodded immediately. Then came the excruciating pain of my wolf essence being ripped out of my body.I collapsed to the ground in an instant, yet I still held tightly onto the antidote with a faint smile on my lips."Reese, wait for me…"The memory cut off there.Reese rolled off me, looking as though he had been struck by lightning. He collapsed beside the bed, his face as pale as a sheet and his entire body shaking violently."I don't… That's impossible…"He looked at me as I lay unconscious, at my pale face and the bruises scattered across my body.

I looked at Reese in disbelief. "What did you say?""Since you're a healer, isn't this your job?" He started the car and laughed coldly. "I'll pay you ten times the market rate."I had no right to refuse him.…The next day, after signing a contract that was practically an indentured servitude, I was taken to Reese's private villa.It wasn't the cozy little home we had once shared, the one full of warm memories, but a mansion halfway up the mountain.My room, dark and damp, was placed next to the maids' quarters.Of course, Tiffany was the true mistress of the house. She seemed to notice Reese's special attention toward me, and she tormented me all the more."Elara, I twisted my ankle. Massage it.""Elara, I want cold spring water collected from the snowy peaks.""Elara, who gave you permission to stand in front of me? Kneel when you speak to me!"When I thought of the innocent colleagues at the clinic, I endured it all in silence.But what hurt me most wasn't Tiffany's tor

I gritted my teeth and was forced to follow Reese.The sound of an elegant violin filled the restaurant. Every guest here was dressed in fine clothes, exuding the air of those in power.Dressed in my cheap T-shirt and faded jeans, I was pressed into a window seat by Reese, while the waiter looked on with clear contempt.He ordered an expensive table full of dishes that I used to love—medium-rare steak, truffle mushroom soup, and a bottle of wine with a good vintage.But I couldn't eat a single bite."You betrayed me for money, so you should be thrilled to face all these things you couldn't afford before."Reese swirled his wine glass, watching me with amusement. "Eat. Why aren't you eating? Did Caleb spoil your tastes?"It was the same man, in the same place, and with the same dishes, but everything was different now.I picked up my knife and fork and mechanically cut into the meat on my plate. It tasted like nothing to me.Just then, a commotion broke out at the restaurant's

I froze, lowering my head in guilt.Reese looked at Tiffany and finally spoke up to stop the farce. "Enough. Pick out a new jewelry set you like tomorrow. Stop making a scene."He then dismissed Peter and Tiffany, but kept me behind.The room suddenly fell quiet, with the only sound being the tic

I clenched my hands in terror and braced myself against the bed, trying to stand.But I couldn't move Reese at all. I frowned and pushed against his iron-hard chest, my voice barely above a whisper."Alpha Reese, your mate will misunderstand! Please let me go!"His gaze was cold and sharp, and hi
