Chapter 5

Author: Moore
Garrick finally grasped the truth. Rowena was really gone.

Cold, sharp panic crept in. Where was he supposed to find her?

His mind replayed their last phone call again and again. With each replay, his unease deepened and tightened its grip.

"No. That can't be right. She loves me too much. She would not leave me like this. She has to be bluffing, trying to scare me," he mumbled. "That has to be it."

Garrick refused to accept that Rowena was truly gone. He convinced himself that she must have

    Before I could speak, Alan stepped forward and met Garrick's gaze head-on."Garrick, for the seven years Rowena was your Luna, you kept her locked inside your territory. You caged her spirit, her preferences, and her ambitions. She gave all of it up for you. If you truly love her, then do not let her wither like a flower cut off from sunlight." His voice was steady, edged with steel. The color drained from Garrick's face. He knew how deeply I once loved my work. Because of his status, I had sacrificed far too much.I reached out and patted Alan's back, asking him to step away. Then I turned to Garrick and shook my head. "Garrick, I'm not going back with you. My work is here. My family is here.""Wena, I'm your family too," he said urgently.Once, I had told him he was the only family I had left in this world. Now, he finally understood that I no longer wanted him.From that day on, Garrick remained outside the research institute. Rain or shine, he refused to leave, and his prese

    It was not until the patrol squad had completely withdrawn from pack territory that Helga arrived in a panic. "Garrick, have you lost your mind? We finally secured an heir, and you throw him away like that? Are you trying to anger me to death?"Her face burned red, and her chest rose and fell with each sharp breath. "Hurry and bring Silvertail back. I do not care about anything else. You must retrieve Snowclaw Pack's heir.""Mom," Garrick cut in, his voice abrupt as he stopped her mid-rant. "Do you know that Rowena is pregnant?"She froze. "You must be… What? Rowena is pregnant?"Delight bloomed across her face. "That is wonderful news. Where is she? Bring her back at once. Silvertail still needs to stay. What if Rowena gives birth to a female pup? I still want Silvertail as the Alpha heir.""We cannot find her," Garrick said, his voice rough. "Rowena is missing. Even with my authority, I cannot trace her. She does not want me anymore."Helga's expression hardened. "That woman is

    The next morning, while Garrick remained in the conference room meeting with the patrol captains, Lyralei barged into the estate, oversized suitcases scraping across the floor behind her.She immediately began issuing orders to the maids as if she owned the place and had every decoration Rowena had personally chosen thrown out through the front doors.Lyralei thrust a bag into the housekeeper's hands. "These are the new decorations for the estate. Replace everything at once. Move faster, or I will replace all of you."The housekeeper did not accept the bag."I'm sorry, Ms. North," he said evenly. "We have received no orders from the Alpha. We are not authorized to make changes to the estate. Alpha Garrick has also not severed his mate bond with Luna Rowena. You are still not the Luna of Snowclaw Pack."Lyralei exploded."This is outrageous!" she screamed, jabbing a finger at him. "I'll call the Alpha right now and have you fired!"She spun around and froze.Garrick stood at the

    After he unlocked the phone, Garrick noticed something that made his breath hitch. There were messages from Lyralei."How does she even have Wena's contact information?" he blurted.A chill crept up his spine as he opened the thread. All the timestamps came after Rowena had disappeared.Lyralei: [Rowena, you finally left?]Lyralei: [At least you know your place. A hen that can't lay eggs has been squatting in the Luna position for years. You should have handed over what never belonged to you long ago.]Lyralei: [Don't ever come back once you're gone. I'll give Gary plenty of pups. There won't be a place for you in the Snowclaw Pack anymore.]Garrick's eyes went bloodshot. His grip tightened until the phone creaked, as if it might shatter in his hand."What else did you find?" he asked suddenly. His voice sounded eerily calm.The Beta swallowed and pulled out his own device, then brought up the estate's surveillance footage. On the screen, Lyralei's face looked twisted and ugly

    Garrick vented all his rage on Lyralei. He dragged her out of the estate and threw her down at the gates."This is my home with Wena," he said coldly. "If I ever see you again, I'll break your legs.""Gary!" Lyralei clutched her stomach and looked at him in disbelief. "I'm carrying your pup. How can you treat me like this?"Garrick did not look at her. He turned away, locked the gates, and left her by the roadside. Her sobs echoed as she cried until her voice gave out.Not long after, Helga rushed over, breathless and frantic. She hurried to help Lyralei to her feet, panic clear on her face."Lyra, why are you out here?" she cried. "Good heavens, how could Garrick throw you out like this? I'm going to settle this with him."She stormed into the estate and yanked Garrick up from the bed in Rowena's old room, where he lay curled in on himself."Garrick!" she shouted. "Lyralei is still carrying our pack's heir. How could you throw her out? What if something happened to her?"She d

She has to be bluffing, trying to scare me," he mumbled. "That has to be it."Garrick refused to accept that Rowena was truly gone. He convinced himself that she must have left something behind, some clue hidden in the house and waiting to be found.He went straight to the room where she used to stay. He opened the door. Inside, he found unfamiliar women's clothes and jewelry.Only then did the truth strike him. That room no longer belonged to Rowena. She had given it to Lyralei. Every trace of her presence had vanished. Even the photo from their mate bond ceremony, the one that once hung on the wall, was gone.Garrick's chest tightened. He summoned the houseke
