Chapter 1

Author: H. Spoonie
After I lost my wolf, many distinguished families no longer invited me to events.

However, for the first time in a long while, I unexpectedly received an e-invitation to a wedding.

It was sent by my stepsister, Laila Woodfield. When I opened it, it turned out to be an invitation to her and my mate Jackson Daveed's wedding.

She even sent me a live stream link to the wedding. I clicked it open and saw Jackson giving Laila a diamond ring. She looked delicately charming in her golden wedding dress.

Laila blushed and extended her hand as Jackson slipped the ring onto her finger. But before she could even lower her hand, Jackson eagerly lifted her veil and pulled her tightly into his arms.

Amid the teasing cheers of friends around them, the two embraced each other and kissed passionately.

By the end of the kiss, Laila's legs were so weak she could barely stand, and only then did Jackson stop, gasping.

He only had eyes for his first love, Laila. He seemed to have completely forgotten about me, who was pregnant and staying at home.

A long while later, Laila messaged me, saying, "Sorry, Seraphina. I sent the message to you by mistake."

She even attached a tongue-sticking-out emoji.

I called Jackson and asked softly, "Where are you?"

He let out a cold laugh and mocked me, "Of course, I'm working! Can you not live without a man? Trying to spy on me again?

"You're already pregnant. Can't you behave? Are you really that desperate for love?"

I sent him the wedding livestream link Laila had given me, and he immediately became flushed and flew into a rage. "Laila was poisoned with wolfsbane. I'm just giving her the wedding she wished for. You're making us sound despicable. Don't you know whether I've cheated or not?"

How self-righteous he sounded.

He was well aware that I lost my wolf to save him, so now that I was an ordinary person, how could I possibly still have the special mindlink that connected werewolves?

On the other end of the call, Jackson's harsh words seemed to drown me like a tidal wave.

"Laila once took care of me when I was seriously ill. This is just my way of repaying her. Only a filthy-minded, disgusting woman like you would twist everything into something romantic!"

The last sliver of hope in my heart made me choke out my words. "But Jackson, today is my birthday…"

Jackson seemed to have just recalled that today was my birthday, and he fell into a brief silence.

He was about to say something, but my father snatched the phone and said, "Seraphina, can you stop being so pathetic? Laila doesn't have long to live, and you still want to argue with a sick person?"

Laila leaned against Jackson and gently said, "Come on, you all know what kind of person Seraphina is. Today is the most important day of my life. Let's just be happy."

With just one sentence, she soothed both men.

After the call ended, I was left alone at home in the dark night—like a fool no one cared about.

I waited for an entire week, but my family never returned. Not even one of them reached out to me.

When I was 12, my father brought my stepmother and an unfamiliar girl into our home.

At that moment, I finally understood something—my mother's death wasn't caused by an accident, but by a broken heart.

    After I got together with Waylon, I finally understood that true love could heal the heart.These days, I thought about the past less and less. So, when I saw Jackson again, it felt as though a century had passed.That press conference made Jackson a laughingstock among the packs. He was banished by the members of the Ulverngard pack and stripped of his Alpha title.Only after he lost his power did he realize how foolish he had been."Please forgive me!" Jackson kneeled before me with tears streaming down his face.From the whispers around me, I learned that Jackson had been lingering near the Nocterra pack for months. He had been trying to get in to see me, but Waylon had always stopped him.Jackson tried to explain, "It was all because of her that I believed her every word, trusted her lies, and hurt you repeatedly!"She's the one who killed our child! I've already killed her—tortured her for revenge for our child! In fact, I'd already fallen in love with you all these years,

    As I no longer wanted to look at those two, I turned around and left the underground dungeon.Waylon followed me upstairs. When I could no longer hold back my tears and collapsed crying, he hesitated for a moment before he pulled me into his arms and gently patted my back to comfort me.Only after I finally calmed down did I realize how ambiguously intimate we were being.I pulled away from his embrace, and while looking into his gentle gaze, another thought suddenly struck me."You just mentioned that I cried by the withered tree outside the city. How do you know about that?" I asked.When I was young—whenever I was mistreated by my father and Mary—I would run to that tree outside the city to cry and confide in a boy who wore a wooden mask.In turn, he would share with me the burdens of being weighed down by his father's high expectations and the great pressure he felt.We comforted each other and got through an otherwise joyless childhood together.That was the secret hideout

    Waylon paused as he tucked in my blanket, then looked at me gently. "I thought I had made it very obvious. Seraphina, you're so smart, so how could you not see that I like you?"I froze, surprised that he would say it so bluntly. Honestly, I had suspected that he might like me, but I hadn't dared to believe it. "What do you even like about me? I'm a divorced woman without a wolf," I said.Meanwhile, he was the Alpha of the Nocterra pack—the gap between us was so vast.I didn't say that part aloud, but I believed he understood it anyway.Waylon didn't answer me. Instead, he asked, "Do you still like Jackson?"Stunned, I retorted, "What?""Do you still like him?""How could you think that? If I still liked him, I wouldn't have broken our mate bond.""Good." He exhaled deeply. "Then I still have a chance."I didn't know how to respond, and under his tender gaze, my face gradually flushed red with heat.However, having just gone through a failed relationship, it was truly hard

    Jackson pulled out the dagger I had sent to him—the very blade that had caused me to lose my pup. He pressed a mechanism on the hilt, triggering a device hidden inside, and sprayed what was inside vigorously at Laila.It was an enhanced version of wolfsbane I had made for his survival. Once it touched a werewolf's skin, it would seep in with no cure.Laila clutched her face and screamed in agony.Mary went mad with rage and shrieked uncontrollably, "You bastard, what are you doing to my daughter? She's always been innocent! You're the one who hurt Seraphina all along! What does that have to do with us?"Jackson trembled all over when he heard this, and then he gave a bitter laugh and nodded. "That's right. I was the one who mistreated Seraphina. I hurt her. I killed our pup. But even so…"A fierce gleam suddenly flashed in his eyes before he shouted, "We'll still drag you all down to hell with us!"As he finished speaking, he bared his claws and lunged at the three of them. Chaos

    In the video, Laila—who Jackson remembered as gentle, innocent, and supposedly poisoned by wolfsbane and needing protection—was smoking and drinking.Meanwhile, on the couch in front of her, Dad and Mary looked immensely pleased with themselves. Especially Mary, who was counting the monetary wedding gift Jackson had given."Our darling daughter really is clever—pretending to be poisoned by wolfsbane and deceiving that dumb Jackson."Haha! He's an Alpha, yet he can't even tell real wolfsbane from fake? How on earth did he survive on the battlefield all these years?"Mary's tone was sharp and mocking. As she spoke, she exchanged a smug glance with Father and sneered.At this point, Father seemed to remember something and said bitterly, "If that brat Seraphina hadn't run off to save his life back then, the Alpha title of the Ulverngard pack would've been mine! I spent so much money pulling strings to lure those enemies in!"If we hadn't run out of money, we wouldn't have had to keep

    I raised an eyebrow. It was no wonder Jackson looked so strange during the entire press conference—it turned out he was hoping I'd show up and ruin his "celebration".Did he really expect me to act like I used to—causing a scene the moment I saw him and Laila tangled up together?Too bad he would be disappointed, for the person who arrived wasn't me, but a stranger brought in by one of Jackson's men.Jackson's men whispered something in his ear, and Jackson immediately showed a smug smile. "You're the courier Seraphina sent? What did she send me this time?"The courier handed him the package I had prepared. "This is a delivery from Ms. Seraphina. Please sign for it."Jackson began opening it while saying, "Go back and tell Seraphina that sending me gifts won't get her forgiveness. She'd better behave and hand over the pup…"He was about to mock me further, but he froze up when he saw what was inside the package. Inside were the things he had once given me—items I had once cherish
