My Funeral, My Alpha Mate's Wedding

"I'm sorry, Luna Lyra. We've never encountered this type of wolfsbane before. I'm afraid you'll need to seek another hospital." The nurse said."Alright. Thank you."With the nurse's help, I got down from the hospital bed."Shall we notify Alpha Drake to come and pick you up?""No, no need." I said impatiently. Last night, upon hearing that his mate Aeris had returned, Drake abandoned me and rushed off to see her even though I had been attacked by rogues. I dragged my injured body to the hospital alone, calling him several times, but he rejected every call.And in the morning, I woke up in the hospital to his call."I want to sever the mate bond with you." He said on the phone, his voice cold. When I reached home alone, Drake was waiting for me in the living room.The strong scent of jasmine —Aeris' scent on him filled the air.My wound throbbed even more painfully.Drake glanced at me with suspicion. "Didn't you say you were poisoned by wolfsbane? You seem perfectly fine to me."

"Alright." I said calmly and hung up quickly to avoid Caden from rebelling. "I'm going with you! I'll make him regret this!"Caden angrily punched the wall."There's no need, Caden. I understand your good intentions, but matters of the heart can't be forced."I didn’t want to ruin the bond between the two brothers because of me."But your health..." Caden looked at me worriedly before reassuring me, "Fine, I promise I won’t argue with him, but let me come with you.""Fine.” Drake wasn’t alone when we arrived—Aeris was standing by his side.They looked at each other affectionately, speaking intimately. Drake's arm was tightly wrapped around Aeris’s waist.The sight stabbed my heart. Drake had never shown me such tender expressions in the past three years.When he saw Caden and me entering, Drake seemed surprised."Caden, why are you here with Lyra?""How can you treat Lyra like this?" Caden retorted."So, you went to get Caden to back you up, didn’t you?" Drake glanced at me disdainf

"What do you mean by Lyra's funeral?""I said, I'm heading to Lyra's funeral!""Joking about this at such a time—really, Caden?" Drake glanced at the confused guests around him and pulled Caden aside."Lyra sent you here to cause trouble, isn’t it? If you don't want to be my best man, fine, but stop teaming up with her to bully Aeris! Aeris has waited three years for this moment!""She's dead! How could she possibly bully Aeris!" Caden snapped."What scheme is she hiding from me this time?" Drake couldn’t control his voice and drew more attention from the crowd.Aeris quickly approached and held onto Drake’s arm."What’s going on? Caden, I know you don’t like me, but today is your brother’s wedding. If you want to argue, at least pick the right time." Aeris looked at him with a wounded expression." The wedding is about to start!""I don’t need you as my best man anymore. Go tell Lyra it’s over between us.” Drake pushed Caden away. “If she dares to ruin my marriage with Aeris, I won’t s

"What?” Aeris stared at Drake in disbelief."She was my ex-wife, after all. I want to stay and attend her funeral." Drake said without glancing at her, his voice heavy. "No, no need to! You should just leave with Aeris," Caden said coldly. "I doubt Lyra would be liking your presence."Drake took two steps back, turned his head to glance at my tombstone one last time, and finally left with Aeris.I watched Drake’s retreating figure and silently said in my heart,"Goodbye. And never again!"After my funeral ended, my father called out to Caden."Caden, thank you for taking care of Lyra." My father said. "It was my duty. Compared to the contributions Lyra made for the Silver Moon Pack, it’s nothing." My father nodded and then handed Caden a document.I saw the cover and immediately recognized it—it was the company share transfer agreement I had drafted with my lawyer after discovering that an unknown wolf toxin had poisoned me."This is what Lyra left for you," my father said. "It stat

Aeris's face turned pale."These are fake! You had someone forge them!" she yelled, lunging to snatch the documents.Drake pushed her aside, his expression full of confusion.Inside it were clear records of bank transfers, copies of agreements signed in Aeris's handwriting, and chat logs.Each page hit Drake like a heavy hammer, shattering his belief."Why did you do this?" Drake's voice trembled as he asked Aeris. "They forced you, didn’t they?""Yes, yes, it was Lyra! She forced me!" Aeris hastily explained. "You’re my mate! I loved you so much. How could I leave you for money?"I didn’t force her! I silently protested, but like always nothing could reach Drake’s ears. Caden then pulled out another set of documents and handed it to Drake. "This," he said, "is proof of Aeris's abortion overseas. This is the real reason she left you. Three years ago, she was pregnant, but the child wasn’t yours. She cheated on you while you were together. Fearing that you’d find out, she left. Before
