登入When the Rogues besiege the town, I quickly grab my sister, Riven Vexmoor, and flee into the forest. By the time we stumble back into town in a sorry state, my fiance, Kael Ironfang, has already cornered the Rogues with his guards. The guard captain, Doren Sten, reports loudly, "Alpha Kael, two she-wolves in the pack are being torn apart. If we do everything we can, we should be able to save one of them." Kael gives the order without a moment's hesitation, "Save Riven first. She has been frail since young—she won't be able to hold on much longer." I freeze in place. Riven pushes past me and throws herself into Kael's arms, sobbing. "Kael, I'm right here. I'm fine." Kael holds her tightly, as if clutching a treasure he has recovered after losing it. "I thought I'd never see you again. Are you hurt? I'll have the healer examine you right away." From start to finish, he never once looks back at me. It isn't until a guard notices me and asks with concern, "Miss, are you alone? It's very dangerous here. Please find your family immediately." I look at my parents in the distance. They are huddled around Riven as Kael holds her, the three of them crying together. I give a bitter smile. "I have no family. I'm completely alone. By the way, isn't the Southern Border Patrol recruiting healers? If so, is there still time for me to apply?"
查看更多My parents froze on the spot, utterly incredulous.In their eyes, there was absolutely no way the bond between Kael and me could be severed just like that, let alone the possibility of me falling for someone else so easily.Seeing their stunned expression, I spoke calmly and openly."The only reason I came back was to see Kael one last time. In a few days, I'll be leaving for another pack to hold the mating ceremony with my mate. I won't be coming back anymore."Dad flew into a rage, his voice rising as he berated me, "How could you leave Alpha Kael? He was gravely injured and bedridden because of you, and now you turn around and find someone else? How can you be so heartless? Doing this will make our family unable to hold our heads up in the entire pack!"I couldn't help but let out a cold laugh. Even at this moment, it was never my pain or my happiness that he cared about. From beginning to end, all that mattered to him was the family's pathetic reputation.I couldn't be bother
The moment I stepped out of Kael's treatment room, I spotted my parents standing not far away.Their hair had grayed considerably, and their faces were etched with exhaustion and weariness.Mom rushed up to me and wrapped her trembling arms around me tightly."Lenore, you've suffered so much," she said, her voice choked with emotions. "You're finally back. It was all our fault. We were foolish. We always neglected you and let you down. Can you please forgive us?"In the past, if they had shown me even the slightest kindness, I would have gladly forgiven all their favoritism and coldness.But now, even as I was being held in Mom's arms, I felt unusually calm. In fact, there wasn't the faintest stir in my heart.All the accumulated hurt and disappointment had long since faded away the moment I left this home and embraced a new life.Dad stood off to the side silently, his eyes full of guilt and unease.Both of them were consumed by the desire to make amends. Without giving me any
My leg had indeed nearly been crippled by the wolfsbane poison.It was Caspian who recognized the severity of my injuries and immediately rushed around, calling in every favor he had to secure a rare and specialized antidote from a neighboring pack.The moment the antidote took effect, the searing pain that had spread through my entire body finally began to fade.Caspian looked at my pale, haggard face and sighed in resignation."You fool, from now on, love yourself. Don't keep hurting yourself for people who aren't worth it."Those simple words struck every chord in my heart at once. All the grievances I had bottled up for years suddenly melted away.I let go of the past completely and made up my mind to leave my old life behind for good.I turned on my phone, which had been silent for a long time, and typed out a brief message to Kael."Kael, I'm calling off our engagement. From now on, let's each go our own way. Don't contact me again."After sending the message, I immediat
Kael swiftly summoned the pack's senior members. After arranging for trusted hands to take full charge of all pack affairs, he prepared to set out to find me.Just as he had finished packing and was about to set off, Evander came rushing over."Alpha Kael, Mrs. Vexmoor was so humiliated by yesterday's ceremony that she's worked herself into a state and collapsed. Would you like to go see her?"Upon hearing this, Kael stopped in his tracks. Then, without a moment's hesitation, he turned and strode briskly toward my home.The moment he saw my parents, he spoke up first to reassure them."Mr. and Mrs. Vexmoor, there's no need to worry. I've already postponed the mating ceremony, and I'll bring Lenore back safe and sound. The ceremony will go on as planned."Mom lay weakly in bed, her face drawn and haggard. All she could do was nod feebly.After reassuring them both, Kael turned to leave. But as he passed my room, he noticed the door was slightly ajar.He paused instinctively. Pus
