"There was a clear sign at the entrance to the party. "Thalia Emberwood and cockroaches are not allowed inside."

I was Thalia Emberwood. Seeing my name next to cockroaches, I couldn't help laughing because I was reborn.

Today was Damon Hale's coming-of-age ceremony. In my past life, this was the day he subjected me to public humiliation.

He was the heir of the Shadowmire pack's Alpha. As for me, I was just an Omega orphan rescued by the Alpha from a pack war.

When we were pups, he always insisted I was his future mate and promised me the grandest marking ritual at the Moonveil Ceremony.

For years after, he cared for me in every way and gave me hope for a new life. But everything changed when he turned 14 and his stepsister, Raven Cross, appeared.

Still, thanks to the Moon Goddess' mercy, our wolves recognized each other no matter how far apart we were.

As rain suddenly poured from the sky, I stood at the entrance to the party when one of his buddies blocked my way. "Go home, Thalia. Damon has made it clear that you're not allowed in."

I forced a smile.

In my past life, I stood in the rain all night and hoped he'd soften. Yet he sent his wolf guards to beat me unconscious, and I woke up two days later.

When his Alpha father found out, he furiously ordered Damon to mark me immediately.

I waited two years for the marking ritual and spent a third of my savings on that wedding. But on the day of the ceremony, Raven drank wolfsbane and took her life.

Damon acted as if nothing had happened and went through with the marking ritual, but never touched me afterward. He coaxed me into believing he'd lost millions in a failed investment and begged me for help, knowing that the Alpha would strip his heir status if he found out.

I handed over the rest of my savings, gave him my salary card, and took on extra jobs. But after marking me, he spent nights with other she-wolves and left my wolf in agony.

Each time I begged him to sever the bond, he would sneer and retort, "Don't ever think of escaping my side, you vicious thing. You'll pay for this for the rest of your life."

Later, he accused me of murder and condemned me to a death sentence executed under the pack law. Before I died, I learned he'd always believed I'd poisoned and killed Raven.

But fate gave me another shot at life.

This time, I was free and would never again beg for his love. I would live for myself and stay far away from the mate pull.

    Zane and I hadn't planned on going public so soon.As the current Alpha of Coghaven, every move he made was closely watched. We agreed to wait until we officially marked before making an announcement. But recently, Zane had taken charge of a major medical reform for Coghaven Council, which placed him right in the middle of the pack's core spotlight.Even if we carefully arranged to meet only at night, there was always a chance we'd get caught on camera. He'd had enough of hiding. So one night, he pulled out a silver ring he'd designed himself and proposed on the spot.I didn't hesitate and immediately said yes.As we were walking home hand in hand, a low, hoarse voice suddenly called out behind us, "Thalia…"I instinctively turned around to see Damon step out of the shadows with red-rimmed eyes. The sight had me frowning deeply.When he spoke, his voice was soft and almost drifting. "Don't be afraid, Thalia. I'm not here to cause trouble. I just… wanted to talk to you."I co

    An old classmate texted and sent me a link, telling me to check it out.It led to Raven's post, who cried victim online. "I lost the pup because Thalia pushed me… She's always been jealous of me, so she stole Damon from me, and now she's trying to hurt me too…"She posed in front of a hospital backdrop and added a picture of the diagnosis report, playing the perfect victim.She guided the public to target me with a wave of abusive comments, and some even got hold of my phone number.Every morning, I woke up to a flood of missed calls from strangers. All my social media platforms were bombarded with malicious messages. Even classmates, who barely spoke to me, came crawling out to point fingers.I let out an angry laugh and lodged a police report before calling Damon's number. "Where's the surveillance footage? Hand it over now."I thought he'd at least have the decency to feel ashamed, but I was wrong.On the other end of the line, Damon's voice was light. "It's fine with me if y

    After that day, the Alpha and Luna called me several times. Their voices were gentle as they talked me into coming back to the Shadowmire pack, but I turned them down without hesitation.I'd fought with everything I had to get out of that place, so no way I'd ever go back.When the day came for the meal I'd arranged with Zane, he showed up in the same understated black with his cap pulled low.I understood. As Alpha of Coghaven, he was always under watch, especially when he was the Chief Alpha with a seat in the council and had an influence across major territories. Showing up in a border pack made him an easy target for gossip and ambushes.I booked a special private room in the back, but we'd barely sat down when Damon barged in. He grabbed my wrist and barked, "How dare you be having dinner with him!"I yanked my hand free and frowned. "Who do you think you are to control me?"Instead of holding back, I bared my claws just enough to make him flinch and let go. Then, I steppe

  • See You Again? No, See You Never   Chapter 6

    Damon had always said my existence was getting in the way of his perfect life with Raven, so I made up my mind.That same day, I posted a picture on Instagram, which showed a large, bony male hand wrapped tightly around mine, our fingers interlocking.The caption was just one word. "Hello."Within minutes, my comment section exploded."Wait a minute. This hand isn't Damon's, is it?""What are you doing? Are you insane?""Take it down! Quit causing trouble!"Damon's gang of cronies instantly jumped in to swarm me with comments and insults. As I sat there sipping my water and watching them lose their minds, I couldn't feel any better.Finally, I set my phone down and turned to the he-wolf beside me. "Is it true that you're… Zane Duskbane?"Wearing a cap and mask, Zane was dressed in black from head to toe, which completely covered every inch of his skin. He nodded at my question.Though he was Alpha, his presence wasn't overbearing. If anything, it was calm and restrained. He

    I gave the Alpha and Luna standing at the door a polite nod. "I'm sorry, but something else came up. I have to get going now."Before they could respond, I turned and walked away.After a few steps, all the strength drained from my body as I sank onto the stone steps. My cheeks stung, and my ears rang; Damon hadn't held back with that slap. He'd always been that way, to trust anyone but me. Raven loved putting on her little shows and framing me since high school. Once, she got trapped in the restroom. I kicked down the door to get her out, but she threw herself into Damon's arms and cried, "Thalia locked me in."Damon had never trusted me."Need a ride?" A low, calm voice pulled me from my thoughts.I looked up and saw a man in a dark gray coat standing under the streetlights. His facial features were sharp, and his brown hair was neatly slicked back, giving him a commanding presence.I was stunned. The man I was looking at was the current Alpha of Coghaven, Zane Duskbane.I

    The résumés I sent out started receiving responses.Among them, the one I was most excited about came from a pharmaceutical company in the nearby Cinderscorch pack. It was a major enterprise under Coghaven.I scheduled an interview immediately.In my past life, I dreamed of having a good job that paid well countless times, but I never had the chance. Now, I was both nervous and excited.Before I could figure out my next plan, my phone rang with a call from Damon. I hesitated before picking up. His usual cold voice came through the phone. "Where are you?"My good mood vanished instantly as I replied, "What do you want?"His tone turned harsher. "My parents are back, and they want you to join us for dinner."As the sky darkened, I returned to Shadowmire Manor. There were four people seated at the dining table—Alpha, Luna, Damon, and Raven.Something felt wrong because everyone had grave, solemn expressions.As I calmly took my seat, Damon glanced at me before getting up and wa
