Chapter 10

Penulis: Strawberry Jammy
News among the wolf packs always traveled fast, even across 100 miles.

A month later, the rumor that Alpha Ronan of the Southern pack had gone mad became the hottest topic in the north.

They said he wasted away, tearing up the floor plank by plank.

Finally, beneath Evelyn's bedroom floor, Heart of the Moon Goddess—what I was supposed to have stolen—glowed faintly.

At that moment, all the lies unraveled on their own.

They said Ronan kneeled on the ground, howling like a beast dying.

It was a remorse that came far too late.

Then, in front of everyone, he stripped Evelyn of all her privileges.

She cried, clinging to his legs while repeating over and over, "I just love you too much… I don't want to lose you…"

However, this time, Ronan showed no mercy. He cast Evelyn into exile—the kind reserved only for the worst criminals.

That place was a barren wasteland, devoid of food and filled with endless cold and wild beasts.

When this news reached my ears, I was sitting by a campfire i

    However, Ronan didn't leave. Instead, he set up a crude tent on the barren plain outside my camp.He stayed there day after day.He began to imitate his younger self, doing clumsy things.At dawn, a bouquet of wildflowers, still wet with dew, would appear outside my tent.In the afternoon, he'd carefully place burnt toast at the camp entrance.I looked at those flowers and felt nothing but bitter irony.When I needed Ronan most, he gave me only coldness.Now that I no longer needed him, who was he trying to impress with this belated affection?This rotten relationship had to be cut off once and for all.One full moon night, I walked to the altar before the whole pack. I was going to initiate the ritual to dissolve the mate bond.The moment I lit the silver candleholder, Ronan lost control.Ignoring the guards, he stumbled forward and dropped to one knee before me."Don't… Carly, please…"He clutched at the hem of my skirt. Tears were streaming down his face, and there wasn

    "Carly!" A heart-wrenching scream tore through the sky.Ronan threw himself toward me in a frenzy, but his hand only managed to snag my sleeve.With a sickening tear, the fabric tore in the wind. My body was suspended in midair, completely detached from the cliff.In that weightless moment, the world went utterly silent. Only the howl of the wind filled my ears.A semi-transparent figure jumped after me without hesitation.During the rapid fall, that fragile embrace caught me.Though I couldn't feel it, I knew it was him.The young werewolf pressed his forehead against mine. His usually translucent face was now lit with a satisfied smile."Carly, I love you."His voice echoed deep inside my soul.Then, his body began to dissolve. From his toes upward, he turned into shimmering particles, vanishing into the raging wind.Just before he disappeared completely, 18-year-old Ronan left me one last message."Don't forgive him."With that, a massive impact hit.My body crashed th

    The road to Mist Valley was treacherous.The stolen off-road vehicle finally gave out halfway up the mountain. Black smoke billowed from under the hood.We had no choice but to go on foot.It felt like we were dragging lead with every step. The wolfsbane blurred my vision, but I dared not stop.From below, engines roared.28-year-old Ronan arrived with fully armed enforcers and Evelyn in tow.She pointed at the tire tracks on the ground. Her eyes burned with venomous spite."They're definitely hiding up the mountain! Smoke them out! They're traitors! No mercy needed!"As Ronan stared at the steep slopes, hesitation flashed in his eyes. "Just search the mountain. Smoke is too dangerous. Carly's still up there."Evelyn immediately pulled out a stack of documents—fake evidence of my betrayal."She stole the sacred stone to give it to our rival pack! How long will you keep protecting her?"When Ronan looked at the papers, the doubt in his eyes faded. It was replaced by cold disa

    These weren't the pack's official enforcers.They were a group of reckless mercenaries who would trade their lives for some coin, accompanied by a few foul-smelling Rogues.A combination like that was more cruel than the regular soldiers.18-year-old Ronan's expression changed. He shoved me into the closet. "Carly, don't come out, no matter what you hear."His voice was soft, but it carried absolute authority."You can't go…" I tried to grab him, but my hand passed right through his sleeve.He smiled at me. It was a fearless smile unique to his 18-year-old self."Trust me."With that, he picked up a rusty iron rod from the floor and charged outside.The moment the door slammed shut, I heard flesh tearing and wolves howling.I peeked through the closet crack.18-year-old Ronan fought three massive Rogues like he had nothing to lose.The ghostly version of him couldn't shift into his wolf form and had to rely on that iron rod and sheer grit.Every strike seemed aimed at taki

    The off-road vehicle tore through the muddy forest road.Mud splattered everywhere as the tires churned, and the windshield wipers frantically swept, but the blur outside never cleared.The heater inside was cranked to full blast, but I still felt cold.It was a chill that seeped from the very marrow of my bones. The wolfsbane was devouring what little life I had left.As the werewolf drove, he spoke to me casually. "This crappy heater's no good. Once we reach the next town, I'll get you a better car."He was hiding something.He was hiding the fact that he was fading away.The car finally stopped in front of an abandoned roadside motel.The place was utterly deserted, with nothing but the wind and rain lashing against a dilapidated sign that groaned with a steady creak.The werewolf carried me inside and found a relatively clean bed for me to lie down on.He tore off his white shirt, ripped it into strips, and bandaged the scrapes I got while running.When he finished, he p
