Chapter 8

Autor: Alyssa J
Alex arrived at the Hampton estate where the marking ceremony was supposed to take place.

He was surprised the ceremony hadn't started yet. It was already running late.

He saw Ethan standing near the elaborately decorated altar, but instead of greeting guests, he was staring at his phone.

Ethan looked agitated, his brow furrowed with worry.

He kept glancing toward the entrance, then back at his silent phone.

He was trying to call me. Alex knew. My phone was still turned off.

Alex watched as Ethan's thumb hovered over my contact, then moved away again.

The last words I'd said to him - "I hope you get all the happiness you deserve" - echoed in his mind.

He was finally understanding the finality in those words. I wasn't just missing the ceremony. I was gone completely.

Ethan suddenly straightened, spotting Alex in the crowd.

He started walking toward Alex, his eyes full of urgent questions.

But just then, there was commotion near the bridal preparation area.

"Has anyone seen Victoria?" on

    The healed scar on my arm felt warm against my skin. Reminding me of the journey I'd traveled, of my strength.At the celebration banquet, champagne flowed and congratulations echoed throughout the royal palace.The Alpha King himself approached me, his massive presence commanding yet respectful."Healer Reed," he said, his voice carrying the weight of absolute authority, "your contributions to our kind have been immeasurable. Thousands of werewolves live pain-free lives because of your silver poisoning cure."He gestured to his advisors, who brought forward an ornate scroll sealed with the royal crest."In recognition of your service, I grant you the highest honor our realm can bestow. You are hereby awarded your own territory—a fertile land rich in the moonflowers and healing herbs you've used to save so many."The gathered crowd murmured in amazement. Such an honor was unprecedented for someone so young."Furthermore," the Alpha King continued, "you will have complete autonomy over

    He gently touched the side of my neck, his fingers brushing over the nearly healed scar from silver poisoning on my arm.Ethan saw this gesture, this natural intimacy.A sharp, visceral pain twisted his stomach.This was the pain of regret, the pain of irreversible loss.Alex walked up beside me, patted Jacob's shoulder, then pulled me into a tight hug.Ethan watched them, watched the three of us forming a warm, harmonious picture.A family.He was an outsider, a ghost at this feast of success."Ethan? What the hell are you doing here?"Alex spotted him. His voice was low and furious. He crossed the street, positioning himself between Ethan and me."I... I have to see her, Alex," Ethan stammered. "I need to apologize."Alex's laugh was harsh, humorless."Apologize? You think an apology can make up for everything you did? All those years of lies? The humiliation? The scars you left on her, Ethan?"He gestured toward me, where Jacob now stood protectively at my side."Do you see that sil

    My research was filled with broken healing processes, silver toxicity patterns, showing beauty in imperfection and recovery.This was my story, etched in formulas and experimental data.One late night, Jacob found me in the laboratory, surrounded by test tubes and empty coffee cups.He brought me pasta from his favorite little restaurant.He didn't say much, just sat beside me, his presence bringing quiet comfort.I remembered when we first met.I had been sensitive and distant, wary of any kindness.But he was persistent, yet gentle and humble.He would show up at the student café with an extra pastry, or leave a healing theory book he thought I'd like outside my door.He never pushed, never pried.He just... saw me.He understood my research, understood the unspoken pain woven into my work.He looked at "Fragments of Restoration" not just as a thesis, but as a reflection."This is about resilience, isn't it?" he said once, looking at one of my early molecular diagrams. "Taking the br

    She pulled out several canisters of gasoline from the bag she'd been carrying.Kane's eyes widened in horror."Victoria, what are you—"She started splashing gasoline around the cabin, dousing the walls, the furniture, Kane himself."If I can't have happiness, then nobody can," she said calmly. "If I have to burn, then you burn with me."She struck a match.The cabin exploded into flames.Kane screamed as the fire caught his already injured body. He managed to stumble outside, rolling in the dirt to extinguish the flames on his clothes.But Victoria wasn't done.She moved through the compound like a woman possessed, setting fire to everything in sight. The weapons cache. The communications center. The barracks where wounded rogues were recovering.Half the forest was ablaze by the time the Royal Guard helicopters arrived.They found Kane barely conscious, his body covered in severe burns.And they found Victoria standing in the middle of the inferno, laughing as the flames consumed eve

    The first wave hit the main compound at sunrise. The pack fighters responded exactly as they'd been trained, falling back to defensive positions that had been set up decades ago.Every single position was compromised.Kane's rogues were waiting.The pack's communication systems went down first. Then their weapons cache. Then their escape routes.Everything Victoria had given them was being used to systematically destroy Ethan's pack from the inside out.By noon, the pack house was under siege.Elder Councilman Robert Grey stood in the emergency bunker, his face twisted with rage as he stared at Ethan."How?" he demanded. "How did they know our every move?"Elder Sarah Williams stepped forward, her voice deadly quiet."There's only one explanation. We have a traitor. Someone with access to our highest security protocols."All eyes turned to Ethan."You think I betrayed my own pack?" Ethan's voice was incredulous."Your mate had access to everything," Elder Grey snarled. "Your precious V

    Her expression shifted, becoming cold and calculating."Fine," she spat. "You want the truth? Yes, it's Kane's baby. Kane Morrison, Alpha of the Eastern Rogues. And you know what? I'm glad."She stood up, her fear replaced by vicious satisfaction."You think you're so much better than everyone else, don't you? The great Alpha Ethan. Well, guess what? You got played by a pregnant omega and a rogue pack."She laughed bitterly."Are you regretting it now? Regretting throwing away the one person who actually loved you? Too bad little Sylvia is long gone. She won't be coming back to save you this time."Her laughter echoed off the stone walls as Ethan turned and walked away.Ethan stumbled away from the chaos, his mind completely numb.Without realizing it, he found himself outside my old apartment building.He broke into my former room. It was completely empty, nothing left behind.All the surfaces were covered with a thin layer of dust.On that small, rickety table, there was a piece of p
