Hyacinth
The day Isabella was taken in for questioning, she kept shouting,

"I didn't abuse him!"

"He's my pup! How could I possibly hurt him?"

But as the investigators laid out the evidence, her voice gradually weakened.

Four years of security footage.

Hospital records.

Photographs of old injuries.

Medical reports Ryan had personally altered.

    Ryan and Isabella didn't survive the collapse of their plan together.Once the truth was exposed, they blamed each other for everything."You told me Claire would never find out!" Isabella screamed during one of their final arguments.Ryan laughed bitterly."And who beat the pup every day?""You helped me!""You were the one who wanted his wolf broken before he could awaken!"Their alliance had lasted only while they believed they would win.Now there was nothing left between them except fear and hatred.During one argument, Isabella threw something at Ryan.He grabbed her arm and shoved her away.She stumbled backward.The back of her head struck the corner of a table.The room went silent.By the time help arrived, Isabella was dead.Ryan was later convicted of involuntary manslaughter.The healer who had once risked everything to give his secret son my pup's place in the pack had now lost his mate, his career, his reputation, and his freedom.Runt never returned to Isabella's care.

    The day Isabella was taken in for questioning, she kept shouting,"I didn't abuse him!""He's my pup! How could I possibly hurt him?"But as the investigators laid out the evidence, her voice gradually weakened.Four years of security footage.Hospital records.Photographs of old injuries.Medical reports Ryan had personally altered.They had even recovered evidence showing that Isabella had deliberately restricted Runt's food and repeatedly used suppressants to weaken his wolf.This wasn't punishment that had gone too far.She had spent years trying to make sure the pup she believed carried my Alpha bloodline never became strong enough to awaken.What finally broke her was a single recovered message.Before the first obvious signs of awakening appeared, they were supposed to stage an accident.Once the pup was dead, no one would ever question the switch.Isabella stared at the screen, all the color draining from her face."No…"Her breathing turned ragged."That was my son."She sudde

    The day I left the house, I took only Logan's things with me.His clothes, his toys, a few picture books, and all of his medical records from the past four years.As for the jewelry and gifts Ryan had bought me, I left every single one behind.As I walked out the door, Logan slipped his hand into mine and asked softly,"Mom, are we never coming back?"I gently stroked his hair."From now on, we'll live in our own home."The new house wasn't big, but it was quiet.There were no deliberately amplified screams from Isabella, and no Ryan standing at the door, begging me over and over to repair a bond that was already dead.That night, I unpacked the last box.The city lights glittered outside the window.I stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass and suddenly felt as though the weight that had been pressing down on my wolf for four years had finally lifted.Once my father learned that I'd moved out, he found me soon after."Come back and work for the family business."He pushed a docum

    After I rejected Ryan several times, the humility slowly disappeared from his face, replaced by a dark, sullen expression.His suspension investigation was getting more serious by the day, and the hospital had temporarily suspended him from healer duties.Without a paycheck, he could barely afford to cover Isabella's living expenses anymore.And Isabella wasn't doing any better.The videos of her abusing Runt had caught the police's attention, and she'd already been called in for questioning several times.That night, the two of them finally turned on each other in the house."If you hadn't told me she'd never find out, how did you expect this to end?"Isabella grabbed a glass from the table and smashed it against the floor."Look where we are now! The pup is mine, and everything's been exposed!"Ryan let out a cold laugh."You actually have the nerve to blame me?""You were there when we switched the pups!""For all these years, who was the one beating him every day? Who was the one w

    Runt survived the surgery.Because the doctors had documented years of untreated injuries, child protective services immediately removed him from Isabella's custody. Until the investigation was complete, he was placed with a foster family approved by my father's pack.Isabella wasn't allowed to see him without supervision.After we left the hospital, Ryan seemed like a completely different man.Before, whenever he came home, he couldn't be bothered to say a single unnecessary word to me.Now, he couldn't seem to stay away from me for even a moment.In the morning, he prepared breakfast for me."You haven't eaten enough. I can smell it on you. At least drink this."I didn't even look at it.When he came home that evening, the dining table was once again covered with dishes."You've protected this family and raised our pup all these years. Let me take care of you for once."I said nothing.No matter how hard he tried to please me, I gave him only one answer."I don't need it."Eventually

    Her knees buckled."No…"The bloodline test Runt had received wasn't part of an ordinary childhood examination. Because of his internal bleeding and unstable wolf core, the doctors had ordered a full lineage panel to determine which treatments his body could safely tolerate."Impossible!"Isabella stared at the parentage report, her face deathly pale."How could he possibly be my son?"For four years, she had convinced herself that Logan's unusual strength came from Ryan, while Runt's weakness meant the suppressants and brutal training were working. It had never occurred to her that I might have switched the babies back.She suddenly looked up at me."You! You must have tampered with the test!""Give me my son back!"She charged toward the ICU like a woman possessed, only to be restrained by the security guards."Ma'am, the child is undergoing emergency treatment. Family members aren't allowed inside without authorization!""That's my son!"Isabella struggled desperately, crying and sc
