The cold seawater engulfs me, its relentless pull dragging me into the abyss. I kick desperately, my lungs burning, but the surface drifts farther and farther away. "Save me, Kane… save our child…" Pain lances through my body as I clutch my stomach, shielding the fragile life within me. The child I never thought I'd have, the child who was supposed to be our blessing. Through the watery haze, I see Kane Porter standing on the jagged cliffs above the shore. His tall, commanding figure is framed by the moonlight, his golden eyes burning with hatred. The alpha of the Nightfall Pack, the man who once whispered my name with reverence, now looks at me like I'm filth beneath his feet. His voice cuts through the roaring waves, sharp and merciless. "Don't think I don't know what you've done, Selene." The currents tug me deeper. My strength wanes, but his words stab deeper than the water ever could. "You drugged me with a philter, hoping to make me mark you—hoping to force your way into the position of my Luna. Because of your selfishness, Arya is gone. You destroyed her mind, pushed her into madness!" A shadow of despair twists across his face, but it vanishes beneath pure fury. "She fell from that cliff because of you." I shake my head, but I can’t speak. The sea is swallowing my voice. "Do you know what it’s like to wake up every day in torment? To live knowing the woman I loved died because of you?" His eyes glint like a wolf ready to tear out his prey's throat. "I want you to feel every ounce of that pain. I want you and your cursed child to die with her." The waves crash above me, and darkness claws at the edges of my vision. When I open my eyes again, I'm taken back to the day Kane's philter takes effect. He approaches me, his face flushed and his breathing rapid. He's already undone his buttons. "Hang on, Kane. Arya will be here soon!" I back away and open the door behind me. Then, I run off.

Soldiers searched the nearby waters, and by the time they recovered Arya's body, she was barely recognizable.Cesare and I arrived at the shore but stopped at a distance. Kane was kneeling on the sand, staring blankly at the ocean.I thought maybe he was grieving.I had lived this life again, made different choices, all so Kane could have the future he wanted with Arya. But in the end, he still lost her and their child.Kane must have sensed my presence because he spoke without turning around, his voice almost a murmur as he said, "After Arya got pregnant, I found out she had been secretly drugging me. She was afraid another woman might carry my child."The drug destroyed my seed. By the time I found out, I was no longer able to father a child. She wanted to make sure her child would be my only heir."I didn't know what to say. I had once drugged Kane myself, and I knew I had been wrong to do so. But what Arya had done had gone even further.Then again, considering how he had tr

At dawn, Cesare's guards carried my suitcase as we left Kane's castle.Cesare was already waiting for me at the gates of Greystone. The moment I saw him, I ran into his arms, and his black cloak wrapped around me.Mounting his horse, we rode swiftly toward the border. As we neared the border, the sound of galloping hooves echoed behind us."Scarlett!" Kane rode up with a squad of soldiers, jumping off his horse the moment they reached us. His expression was tense. "You can't leave!"Cesare scoffed, stepping in front of me. "Kane, Scarlett has already made her choice. She's coming home with me. You have no right to stop her.""Cesare, this is a matter between me and Thorn Pack. It has nothing to do with you. Just because you're the Alpha of Windhowl Pack doesn't mean you can do whatever you want.""Whether I can or not, that's not up to you."Behind Cesare, several cannons stationed along the Thorn Pack's border swiftly adjusted their aim, locking onto Kane and his men.Our pack

The banquet hall fell into silence, and the crystal chandelier illuminated Kane's face, turning it ghostly pale.An Alpha from one of the packs spoke up first, "Well, today, aside from Kane and Arya's engagement, there's another pair of newly engaged couples.""Congratulations to Scarlett and Cesare!""Two couples getting engaged at once—that's a good omen for all the packs in the Alliance. Let's toast to that!"With a cheer, everyone raised their champagne glasses, congratulating Kane and Arya and Cesare and me. The crowd around us began to disperse, and the banquet atmosphere returned to its joyful state.As the host, Kane continued to entertain the guests. Arya, on his arm, wandered around the hall, clearly acting as if she were already the Luna.This scene must have been Kane's dream in a past life.But I noticed that Kane's gaze occasionally flickered toward Cesare and me, his eyes filled with confusion. When Cesare gently picked me up to leave the banquet hall early, Kane

The warm black cloak was draped over me, covering me completely. The man wrapped the cloak around me gently, holding me close as he led me out of the fountain.The moment I touched his chest, I immediately realized something—he felt so familiar, like I had seen him somewhere before.It was the man I had slept with that night!Kane's cold voice cut through the air, "Cesare, Alpha of Windhowl Pack, what brings you here?"What? Wasn't he Kane's guard?I stared up at the man holding me. His face was sharp and emotionless as he looked at Kane.Everything suddenly clicked in my mind. The "guard" I had slept with that night—the one who marked me—was none other than Cesare, the man James had mentioned setting me up with for a blind date."I heard my fiancée was being bullied here. I wanted to see who dared to pick on her," Cesare said, his voice steady.Windhowl Pack held the highest status in the entire Alliance Pack. Kane hadn't expected to find such a strong connection between Cesar

My new room was the most secluded one in Kane's castle—small, dark, and damp. Moss covered the walls, and the air smelled musty.Arya followed me to the door."Your old room was where the Lunas of past generations stayed. Kane said since we're about to bond, I should stay there before the wedding ceremony," she said, her tone dripping with smugness.I ignored her and silently started picking up the things that had been thrown on the floor. "Now I understand. You drugged him last night, then sent me to his room, hoping that out of gratitude, he would make you his Luna. But too bad. Kane saw through everything."All those times you followed him around, begging for his love, and he never acknowledged you. Now, that's even more impossible."I came to tell you…"Tonight, there's a banquet. Kane invited all the Alphas from Alliance Pack to attend. It's going to be grand. He plans to announce our engagement."He wants you, as his sister, to present the engagement ring to us at the ba

I replied nonchalantly, "Me? I just went for a walk on the city wall yesterday.""Scarlett, what did you do last night? Who did this to your neck?" Kane's eyes were bloodshot as he grabbed my arm, pressing me relentlessly for an answer.It took me a moment to realize he was talking about the marks and love bites on my neck.I quickly readjusted my scarf and replied coldly, "Why should I tell you? What does it have to do with you?"Perhaps it was because I was unusually calm, or maybe because it was the first time I showed any sarcasm toward him, but Kane stood frozen in place.Without waiting for his response, I walked past him.He quickly stepped in front of me, sneering. "Don't think I don't know. You drugged me last night. What? Couldn't get me into bed, so you went off to sleep with another man?"You deliberately invited Arya over and disappeared for the night. You thought I would worry about you? Your little tricks didn't work."I didn't understand why Kane was so angry. D
