Chapter 9

Author: Echo
Andrew ran frantically to the back garden, hoping to find her there.

But all he found was a field of blackened ruins.

The rainbow of flowers he'd planted with his own hands had all been reduced to ash.

"No… this can't be…" He collapsed to his knees on the scorched earth, his trembling hands grabbing a fistful of still-warm ash.

These flowers were a symbol of their love, of the promises he'd made. Now, they were nothing but lifeless, black dust.

Andrew scrambled back inside, taking the stairs two

  • Severing My Alpha's Mark   Chapter 19

    (Lucia’s POV)Three days later, at dusk, I was sitting at a small table in the back of the shop, studying an ancient herbalism text."Laura," Margot said softly. "You should see this."She held up her communicator. A video was going viral on the werewolf networks.I looked up and saw Andrew in the hospital bed. I could feel the life draining out of him. Cullen looked old and broken, his every word laced with a father’s pain.After watching, I calmly handed the device back to Margot. "People don't die just because someone leaves them, Margot."See him one last time? The biggest lesson I had learned was to never again compromise my own well-being for someone else's."Not even for a destined mate?" Margot asked gently.I shook my head. "Especially not for a destined mate. True love should make you stronger, not more fragile."Just then, the wind chime on the door jingled, and a tall, lean man walked in.He was around thirty, with dark brown hair and piercing gray eyes. He wore simple trav

    (Lucia’s POV)On the cobblestone streets of Marseille's Old Port, sunlight filtered through narrow alleys. An herb shop named "Herbes de Lune" sat quietly on a corner, bundles of dried lavender hanging by the door.Inside, the air was filled with the gentle scent of herbs. The owner, Margot, was a witch in her seventies with silver hair and sharp, deep-blue eyes. She knew I had a story but never asked, simply offering me a job and a place to stay."Laura, you can go rest," Margot said gently.Laura was my name now. A clean break from the past.I shook my head. "I'm not tired, Margot. The work keeps my mind busy."Just then, the communicator on the counter buzzed.It was the device I always carried but had never used. I looked at the flashing screen, a strange feeling in my gut. After a moment's hesitation, I answered."Hello?"Andrew's trembling voice, thick with tears, came through the speaker. "Lucia… is that you? Is it really you?"Hearing that voice, my hand trembled slightly, but

    A week later, the entire werewolf world was stunned by a video that appeared out of nowhere.In it, Andrew sat on a simple chair against a stained wall.The once-handsome and powerful Alpha, the object of desire for countless she-wolves, was now so gaunt he was unrecognizable.His cheeks were hollow, his eyes ringed with black, but the most terrifying part was his eyes—empty, desperate, and flickering with a madness that was on the verge of breaking."I am Alpha Andrew," he said, his voice raw. "I'm here to make a confession."He paused, struggling to control his emotions."Three months ago, I did something unforgivable. I betrayed my Luna, my destined mate, Lucia. I… I got another omega pregnant with my child."Every wolf watching gasped. An Alpha publicly admitting to cheating on his Luna was unheard of."I know how pathetic and shameful that sounds," Andrew continued, tears welling in his eyes. "I am a coward and a liar who deserves none of the love she gave me."His voice broke."L

    At three in the morning, moonlight streamed through the windows of the empty mansion.Andrew knelt on the cold marble floor, his hands clasped, facing the full moon.He was so thin he was almost skeletal. His once-perfect features were now terrifyingly gaunt, with high cheekbones and sunken eyes.This was his seventh sleepless night."Moon Goddess…" his voice was a raw whisper. "I know I have sinned… I broke my vow… I hurt her…"A tear fell from his dry eyes, hitting the cold floor."But please… I'm begging you… bring her back to me… I will pay any price… my life, my soul, anything…"Andrew’s body began to shake, not from the cold, but from the emptiness that seeped from his very bones.After losing Lucia, he felt his life force draining away. His wolf was howling, roaring, struggling in despair.The only sounds in the room were his broken prayers and a suffocating silence.This mansion, once filled with laughter, was now a tomb. The staff had been dismissed, the furniture was covered

    After midnight, the rogue district in south Seattle was bathed in the dim glow of streetlights.This was the city's underbelly, a haven for wolves cast out by their packs. The air stank of cheap alcohol, sweat, and despair.A black SUV pulled to a stop in front of the "Moonlit Bar," the most notorious spot in the district.The doors opened, and two burly men got out.They opened the trunk and dragged out a barely conscious Crystal.Her expensive red dress was ruined by blood and grime, her face streaked with tears.Thump.Crystal was thrown onto the filthy concrete. She tried to get up, but her body, now without its wolf, was too weak to even stand.The rogues loitering outside the bar immediately gathered around."Gods, is that Crystal?" a woman with green hair shrieked. "The one who shacked up with Alpha Andrew?""Hahaha! Look who it is! Our 'lady' has returned!" another man with a face full of tattoos mocked. "What's wrong? Couldn't handle the high life?"More and more wolves crowde

    Andrew released her, throwing her to the floor.Crystal saw her chance. She adopted her usual weak facade and started sowing discord. "I admit, I lied to you! But Lucia never loved you! If she did, how could she have left so easily?"Her words died in her throat as Andrew held out the phone, displaying the vile text messages.Line after line of chats, one explicit photo after another—every venomous word was exposed in the light.Crystal stared at the screen, her face turning whiter than the walls. Her lips trembled, but no words came out."You really went to great lengths, didn't you, Crystal? You did everything you could to drive my mate away.""I…" Crystal was speechless. The proof was irrefutable."Did you think I was going to let you go?"Andrew suddenly smiled, a chilling expression that terrified her.In the next second, his Alpha power slammed into her with the force of a tidal wave.As a prime Alpha, Andrew possessed powers beyond imagination, including the ability to shatter a
