Forgetting The Alpha Who Left Me

My soul drifted in the air, the wolf within me long since fallen silent.I was pushed from a cliff by the sister I grew up with, dying instantly as the wolfsbane below delivered its poison.Perhaps the Moon Goddess pitied me, leaving a sliver of my soul behind to witness the end of my old life.The moments before my death were still so vivid, the memory alone sent a chill through me."Sister, you're being so careless." My adopted sister, Tessa, steadied me at the cliff's edge, her voice laced with concern."We grew up together. Why would I ever hurt you?"Her hand gently stroked my back, an intimate, comforting gesture between sisters, right before she shoved me hard.In an instant, the thorny stems of the wolfsbane below pierced my skin.The wolfsbane burned through my body, each breath becoming a struggle as my lungs seized. I tried to scream, but only strangled gasps escaped my throat. My wolf whimpered once before falling completely silent, severed from me forever. Every nerve f

My body had begun to show obvious signs of decay.I watched as wild dogs tore at my body, my arms and legs a bloody, mangled mess.To think I, who had always prized beauty, once cared so much about my appearance. I had even personally helped design the gown for the Luna coronation.I had to be the most beautiful one, to ensure Fenrir's eyes were only for me.I just never imagined I would die in such an ugly way.Today, Fenrir's search order was for the southern valley.But suddenly, the command center had a visitor. It was Tessa's brother, Sean.I didn't understand how a waste of space like him could even set foot in the pack's command center.After all, even I knew that Tessa's long-lost biological brother was a notorious rogue who had done nothing but cause trouble.His presence here meant trouble.But I had to admire Tessa's cleverness. For three days, she had used every trick in the book to keep Fenrir from searching the site himself.She knew that if his mate bond got too close t

Back at his villa, Fenrir replayed the Great Elder's words in his mind.He felt that the most respected elder in the pack had no reason to lie about this.Moreover, the complete lack of any sensation from me for days was truly abnormal."Selene, you're always making your presence known, but now there's just... silence. It's really as if..."He murmured to himself, trailing off.I floated beside him, wanting to tell him that even in death, I was still by his side.But it was no use. I could scream my lungs out and no one would hear.When I was alive, I was always bogged down with trivial matters. Now that I was dead, I finally had time to really look at the bedroom Fenrir and I shared.The nightstand was empty, save for one thing: our only photo together.It was taken after the Moon Goddess had declared us mates.In the picture, we were holding each other tightly, our faces beaming with happiness.The light of the Moon Goddess shone down on us, a witness to our sacred union.Back then,

After the guards dragged a screaming Tessa away, the council hall fell into a dead silence.Fenrir ignored the terrified elders and walked straight out the door.The cliffs.He had to go back to that place.Back to where Selene had died.It was deep in the night, and pale moonlight spilled onto the rubble at the bottom of the ravine.Fenrir knelt where he had found her body, his hands frantically turning over every stone."There has to be something else..."The blood had long since dried, but the stench of decay still lingered.He imagined her final moments, imagined the agony of her death.His fingers brushed against something cold and metallic.In the crevice of a massive boulder, a small, silver dagger reflected the moonlight.Fenrir recognized this dagger.It was forged by the pack's finest silversmith; you'd be hard-pressed to find another like it in the entire werewolf world.It was the gift he had given Tessa for her coming-of-age ceremony.A reward for being the pack's bravest

[Selene's Perspective]When I opened my eyes, the sunlight was spilling gently across my face.The air was filled with the scent of flowers.Jasmine, rose, lavender... the mixed fragrances created a sense of peace I had never known.I sat up and found myself on a soft bed.The room was small, but cozy.White curtains danced in the sea breeze, and in the distance, I could hear the sound of waves crashing against reefs.On the nightstand were a few items: a brand-new ID card, a bank card, and a pale blue note.I picked up the note. In elegant handwriting, it said:"Forget the past, embrace a new life."Forget the past?I frowned, only then realizing I couldn't remember anything at all.What was my name? Where did I come from? Why was I here?All that remained in my mind was a faint awareness of being a werewolf living in the human world; everything else was a blank slate.But strangely, I didn't feel any panic.Instead, I felt a sense of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted.I pi
