My Cards Declined, My Alpha Mate's Crown Denied Chapter 9
“The Ancient Pack Laws,” my father said, turning a page in the heavy, vellum-bound book he was holding. His voice was deep and solemn. “‘A pure bloodline is not tarnished by lies. The names of betrayers shall turn to dust in the wilderness.’”My mother put her spoon down on the tray with a clatter. “Rowan, she’s only three days old. Do you have to read her bloody wolf histories by her bedside?”“She needs to know the legends of her family,” he said, his tone leaving no room for argument. “Not have her mind softened by human fairy tales.”I leaned back against the pillows on my bed and laughed, watching them argue.These last three months had been the calmest of my life.The family’s private medical center took up the entire top floor. My parents’ suite was right next to mine, with just a connecting door between us. A team of the best wolf birthing specialists in the world was on call 24/7.I no longer had to worry about a declined card. I no longer had to suppress my wolf.My mother b

Silence hung in the air like a blade.Cain knelt on the floor, gasping, as if his spine had been ripped out.Three seconds. Five. Ten.No one spoke.Then I saw his expression change.From broken, to twisted, to a near-insane rage. He tried to summon his Alpha power to fight back, but realized he couldn’t break through my parents’ crushing presence.He lurched to his feet, stumbling, and pointed a shaking finger at me. His voice was shrill, like tearing cloth. “You’re all liars! You used me! Manipulated me! You think you can crush me just because you have some high bloodline?”Rowan didn’t even lift his eyelids. He just raised his coffee cup and took a slow sip.“I don’t owe you anything!” Cain was still screaming, his eyes bloodshot, his wolf’s vertical pupils showing. “I built that pack with my own two hands! Who are you to judge me?”Jasmine scrambled up after him, her makeup smeared, her eyes wild with hatred.She turned to me, a twisted smirk on her lips. “Aurora, you’re only here

“Put them in the car,” I said.Silas nodded. Two guards grabbed Cain’s arms, dragging him like a piece of luggage.Jasmine struggled, her high heels slipping on the carpet, her dress a wrinkled mess.“You can’t do this to me!” she screamed, her voice cracking. “I’m Cain’s Mate!”No one paid her any attention.A black, armored SUV was waiting at the back exit. The windows were tinted dark.As they shoved Cain inside, he was still uselessly screaming my name.“Aurora, let me explain! It was all a misunderstanding! Our mate bond is still there, you can’t be this cruel—”The door slammed shut, cutting him off.I sat in the car ahead, watching the escort vehicle in my rearview mirror, saying nothing. The broken bond was still there, yes, but the wolf inside me just felt disgusted by it, slowly freezing it over.The drive was over an hour. The city skyline gave way to vast pine forests, then to the steep ridges of the Pacific Northwest.The car finally stopped before a massive gate made of b

I arrived at the summit hall at 9 a.m.The place was buzzing. Jasmine was in her expensive gown, dripping with jewels, weaving through the crowd of Alphas in her high heels.She was radiant, her smile triumphant. She was deliberately flaunting Cain’s mark on her, a silent declaration to everyone that she was the true mistress of this pack.Cain stood on the stage, his voice booming. “Thank you to the Silver Moon Alliance for three years of trust! Today, we will present to you a blueprint for a brand new pack!”The crowd erupted in applause.I walked to the entrance. Jasmine’s cousin, Nina, was the first to see me.Her face changed. She immediately waved for security. “Get that crazy woman out of here! She has no right to—”Silas just lifted his eyes. A sliver of a high-ranking wolf’s killing intent shot out, locking onto her.The guard’s feet seemed to be nailed to the floor. A whimper escaped his throat. He didn’t dare move.Nina’s voice died in her throat. The entire hall fell silent

The vibration buzzed silently against my hip. No one else heard it.I glanced down at my screen.I had forwarded the Alliance’s number to my phone three days ago.I didn’t answer.I just silenced the vibration, put the phone back in my pocket, and turned toward the elevator.Silas followed close behind, never once looking back at the sea of stunned faces. The cold aura of a high-level guard radiated from him, making the lower-ranking wolves who thought about stopping me instinctively flinch away.I knew that in that moment, our backs were more powerful than any words.Just before the elevator doors closed, I heard Jasmine’s trembling voice. “Why isn’t anyone picking up…”Thirty seconds later, she came running after us, her face a mess of panic.“Cain, the Alliance isn’t answering,” she shrieked. “Do you think there’s a problem with the line?”Cain’s expression froze for a second before he forced a strained smile. “The representative is probably driving. Bad signal. Don’t panic.”From i

The next morning, a call from Silas woke me from a short rest.“Cain and Jasmine,” his voice held a rare chill, “purged all the core members you originally recommended last night. The mine dispatcher, the head of territorial defense, and the three most elite patrol leaders.”I sat up, straightening the robe over my hospital gown.“Triple their pack severance. From my personal account,” I said. “Tell them I will personally ask them to return in two weeks.”“Understood.”I hung up and turned to Silas. “Drive me to the pack headquarters.”He didn’t ask why. He just nodded.As we pulled up to the main building, I could feel a strange, gleeful buzz in the lobby.Silas helped me into the elevator. When we reached the top-floor council hall, a pack assembly was already underway.My spending records from the past six months were on the projector screen.A custom jacket. A pair of limited-edition heels.The annual fee for my parents’ healing center.Every single charge was magnified and highlig
