I arranged for the remaining guests to rest and announced that the mating ceremony would continue in an hour. Then I grabbed a bottle of wine and headed to the private lounge area to wait for Dominic.

While waiting, I scrolled through social media and saw a trending headline: "Moonborn Pack Alpha, Next Alpha King Candidate, Abruptly Leaves Northern Territory Alliance Summit."

My heart skipped a beat.

Moonborn Pack? Alpha King? It couldn't be Dominic, could it?

I clicked on the link and a video popped up.

The footage showed a tall, imposing figure at the summit, hanging up his phone and turning to leave the conference room.

Who else could that be but Dominic?

I could even faintly hear his voice saying, "Suspend all contract negotiations!"

After the video, there was a reporter interviewing the other pack leaders at the signing ceremony: "Does Mr. Dominic's departure from such an important alliance meeting mean this pack negotiation has failed?"

The Northern Territory Pack Alpha shrugged with a smile. "I can only say that Mr. Dominic clearly has more pressing matters to attend to. We respect and understand that. All the alliance pack Alphas will wait here for him to return and resume the peace summit."

Ten years ago, when Dominic had just come of age and learned to shift, he was still a green warrior who confessed to me for the first time at the pack's coming-of-age ceremony. Back then, I only had eyes for Marcus. I carelessly threw the wolf fang pendant he gave me into the bonfire. Later, he led the remnants of Moonborn Pack to establish territory in the north. Now he's a candidate for Alpha King of the entire northern region, yet he still insists on checking in on my daily life every single day.

But I had been completely focused on Marcus, never giving Dominic any chance at all.

Now that I was thoroughly disappointed with Marcus, I was finally waking up.

Comparing the two, I finally understood what real love was versus what was just going through the motions.

Thinking of this, I opened my email and looked through the messages Dominic had sent me.

Every email was passionate and heartfelt, ranging from "Northern Territory Mining Rights Bidding" to "Ate some roasted meat today that's as stubborn as your temper." His domineering exterior hid clumsy tenderness. Before, I thought he was annoying, but now I could feel the love between every line.

These were clearly love letters.

I even felt sorry for him. How had he persisted all these years?

I read through all the emails carefully. An hour passed quickly, and just when I thought he wouldn't come, suddenly a package of roasted venison appeared in front of me.

I looked up sharply to see Dominic behind the food, holding my favorite Julia roses.

"My Luna, sorry to keep you waiting." Dominic said happily, "I made a detour to France to pick up your favorite restaurant's signature roasted venison. I wasn't trying to be late on purpose."

The title caught me off guard. I really wasn't used to it yet.

Seeing my silence, he said somewhat anxiously, "You haven't changed your mind, have you?"

I smiled at him. "Don't worry. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

We walked side by side into the ceremony venue and successfully completed our mating ceremony under the witness of Silvermoon Pack's Alpha and Luna, along with many core members. Fortunately, Marcus hadn't had time to mark me before being interrupted earlier, so we hadn't formed a mate bond, which didn't interfere with Dominic marking me. What surprised me was that the moment Dominic marked me, my wolf discovered that Dominic was my second chance mate.

I knew there were people in the northern territories waiting for him to return and sign contracts, so I urged him to hurry back.

Dominic held me tightly. "Wait for me to come back. I'll announce to the entire werewolf world that you're my Luna now. Today's mating ceremony was too rushed. I want to give you the most magnificent ceremony to make up for it. Be good and wait for me. Remember to reply to my messages. If you forget, I'll be very hurt."

Watching his retreating figure, I couldn't help but smile bitterly. The heir to the Alpha King who dominated the entire werewolf world was really this insecure?

    Serena turned, her face going white when she saw him. "Marcus? What are you—""You used me!" He grabbed his hunting rifle from his backpack with shaking hands. "You made me give up everything for you and your bastard kid, and then you left us all to rot!""Marcus, please, I can explain—""Explain what? How you played me for a fool? How you made me lose the only woman who ever really loved me?"The rifle shots echoed through the quiet street. Serena died instantly, her blood staining the expensive dress she'd bought with another man's money.Marcus was arrested immediately and sentenced to death for intentional murder. He showed no remorse at his trial, only muttering about how everyone had betrayed him.The Marcus family was left with only his mother, taking care of that boy, living in a daze of poverty and shame.The child's behavior only got worse after his mother's death was announced on the news. He became violent, destructive, completely uncontrollable.One day, he demanded she bu

    Later, I gradually heard bits and pieces of news about Marcus.The first piece of information came from my former colleague at the pack clinic. She told me Marcus had been able to get out of prison a year early, but at a devastating cost.His mother had sold their family home—the same house where I'd spent countless evenings having dinner with them, thinking I was part of the family. She'd emptied every savings account, cashed out all their investments, and even sold her late husband's war medals to scrape together the compensation money."She looked like she'd aged twenty years overnight," my colleague whispered. "When she came to handle the paperwork, her hands were shaking so badly she could barely sign her name."They were completely bankrupt.But Marcus's troubles had only just begun.After being thrown out by Dominic's guards that day, Marcus hadn't learned his lesson. My security team later told me he'd tried to force his way back into the venue again, screaming my name like a m

    Marcus's mother panicked as she realized she was being recorded from every angle. She covered her face with her hands and scrambled to her feet, fleeing through the crowd as people laughed and jeered."Run! Run back to your cheating son!""Tell Marcus he can rot in prison for all we care!"And I was immersed in the happiness of announcing our good news, completely ignoring this minor interruption. If anything, seeing her desperation only made me more grateful for how far I'd come.Dominic wrapped his arm around me protectively. "Are you alright, my love?"I smiled up at him. "Perfect. Absolutely perfect."Five years later, on the fifth anniversary of my bonding with Dominic, he successfully won the election to become Alpha King of all territories. The victory had been unanimous—every major pack supported him.We held a grand banquet for this historic occasion, attended by all the important figures from across the territories. The venue was the most exclusive event hall in the capital,

    Since Dominic had arrived before I was attacked, I didn't suffer any serious injuries. After returning home, I watched in amazement as my parents and Dominic's advisors discussed and finalized all the dates and procedures for announcing our bonding.My mother was practically glowing with excitement. "We need to make sure every major pack leader receives a formal invitation," she said, scribbling notes furiously. "This isn't just a bonding announcement—it's a political alliance that will reshape the entire territory."Dominic's beta advisor nodded seriously. "The Northern Territory Council has already approved the union. They're calling it the most significant alliance in decades."My father clapped Dominic on the shoulder. "You've made our daughter happier than I've ever seen her. That's worth more than any political advantage."I felt warmth spread through my chest watching them all work together. This was what a real family looked like—supportive, loving, united.A few days later, we

    At the hospital, my parents arrived within thirty minutes of getting Dominic's call.They had heard what happened on the way and were already livid. My father's face was red with fury, while my mother looked ready to commit murder."Where are they?" my father demanded. "Where are those pieces of garbage? I want to have a few words with them myself!"My mother was pacing back and forth: "I should have known that family was trouble from the beginning. The way that woman always hinted about money, always comparing her son to other men who had more to offer."They said disapprovingly: "It's time to teach Marcus a lesson he'll never forget. You don't still have feelings for him, do you, sweetheart?"I said quietly but firmly: "I'm not that stupid, Dad. Whatever feelings I had for him died the moment he chose to mark another woman at our ceremony."Dominic said seriously to my father: "Uncle, don't worry. I've already issued a blacklist order against him through my connections in the Norther

    She shouted loudly: "Why should our family pay? We don't have money! Now that you're with him, Aria won't give Marcus any more money!"The crowd immediately erupted in shocked murmurs. People were pulling out their phones, recording everything. This was going to be all over social media within minutes."Did she just admit they've been living off Aria's money this whole time?""The audacity! After everything they did!""No wonder Marcus thought he could treat her like garbage—his whole family are parasites!"At this point, Marcus's mother suddenly went pale as she realized what she'd just revealed in front of everyone.Her face drained of all color as the full weight of her words hit her. She had just publicly admitted that their entire family had been financially dependent on me—the woman her son had betrayed and humiliated.She seemed to finally realize what they had done. The magnitude of their betrayal, their greed, their complete lack of shame.But it was too late. The damage was d
