Silence Under the Moonlight Chapter 9
Shane took a deep breath and looked away."I'll restore the floral boutique to how it was."I shook my head."You don't have to."I'll take care of it myself."He froze."I know you're still angry."You can punish me however you want."As long as you give me a chance to make things right."I looked him straight in the eyes."Shane, some wounds can never fully heal, can they?" I asked calmly, but the pain still cut through."The death of my parents."My seven years of exile."The suffering Katie went through."Can you make up for all that?"Shane's face instantly turned pale."But we still have Katie!"Katie needs a complete family!"I snorted."A family full of lies and hurt?"I'd rather not."I'll raise Katie myself."You don't have to worry about anything."Shane closed his eyes in pain. His head hung low, and his voice was hoarse."I know it's all my fault."I just hope I can stay by your side."I don't mind being treated like a stranger. I'll just watch ov
Silence Under the Moonlight Chapter 8
Shane stood there with a dark expression.Katie slipped out from behind him and ran toward me.She pointed at Leah and shouted, "You evil woman! Don't bully my mom!"She hugged my leg tightly while glaring at Leah with fury.Leah's face turned pale as she panicked."Shane, let me explain!"She's the one bullying me!"She threw coffee on me!"Katie immediately yelled back."That's not true!"You're the one who told bad people to hurt Mom!"She grabbed the corner of my clothes and sobbed."Dad and I already know the truth!"You framed Mom!"Leah's breathing became rapid.She suddenly raised her hand and lunged toward Katie."You little brat! What nonsense are you talking about?"Instinctively, I pulled Katie behind me.I closed my eyes and braced for the attack, but the pain I expected never came.I opened my eyes.Shane had grabbed Leah's wrist and flung her away."Enough." His voice was deep and suffocatingly oppressive.Leah staggered backward and was caught by a

Inside the floral boutique, my mind refused to settle even after Shane and Katie had left.Looking at the candy jar Katie had left on the counter, a wave of bitterness rose in my chest.I forced myself not to think about it and lowered my head to tidy up the counter.The wind chime suddenly rang. I thought a customer had come in.Without looking up, I said out of habit, "Welcome. What kind of flowers would you like?""So it really is you." A shrill female voice suddenly came through.I looked up and saw Leah standing arrogantly in the doorway.She was in a white gown. Her gaze swept over my floral boutique with contempt.She smiled sarcastically."Yvonne, you actually didn't die in the freezing wastelands."Hiding here selling flowers. How pathetic!"I set the scissors down and looked blankly at her."What do you want?" I asked.Leah walked in with elegant steps and casually pulled out a chair to sit down."Today is the day Shane and I hold our marking ceremony."Unfortu

Katie straightened up in her seat and grabbed Shane's arm.She shouted excitedly, "Dad! You believe Mom now, don't you?"Shane stared out the window without answering.Katie shook his arm again."Leah always said bad things about Mom before!"You always said she saved me."You told me not to falsely accuse her!"Shane turned to look at Katie with a hint of confusion in his eyes."How do you know she's your mom?"Katie explained miserably, "I passed by her shop, and it felt familiar."The car stopped at a red light.Shane retrieved his phone and searched for an old photo.In the photo, a much younger me was holding baby Katie in my arms while smiling brightly.He turned the screen toward Katie."This was taken when you were a month old."Katie touched the photo on the screen.Her voice trembled as she cried."You kept Mom's photo all this time."Shane took his phone back.The car started moving again.Just before they reached home, Shane said to the guard, "Turn aro

The door was gently pushed open.The werewolf in the coat walked in.His eyes were bloodshot.He looked at me first before shifting his gaze to Katie."Katie." His voice was deep and hoarse."Come here."Shane stood there at the entrance of the shop.He looked far more worn than he had seven years ago. He also seemed colder.There was a rugged look in his eyes that stemmed from far deeper emotions.We stared at each other across the counter.For a moment, it felt like the entire world had stopped. All I could hear was the sound of rain outside.Katie ran over and hugged his leg tightly.She looked up and spoke with a trembling voice."Dad, she's my mom, isn't she?"She reached into the collar of her shirt and retrieved a familiar wolf-fang necklace."Look."You said Mom left this for me."She's my mom, right?"That necklace was like a sharp thorn. It hurt me to even look at it.It belonged to my mother.Seven years ago, I had personally put it on my daughter and eng

For the next six months, in order to keep Leah from hurting my daughter, I lived like a puppet on strings."Leah." Without a shred of pride left in me, I begged in humiliation."Please let me see my pup."She looked at me with open contempt."Kneel. Wipe the floor clean."I did what she told me to until my fingernails cracked open, and all ten of my fingers were bleeding.Only then did she bring my daughter to me.I had a mere ten minutes.I endured every bit of humiliation and pain.On the day of my daughter's birthday, I found my chance.Leah and Shane were busy greeting the guests who had come to celebrate.I pried open my daughter's door and picked her up. I changed into a maid's clothes.Carefully, I hid my daughter inside a waste barrel.I then pushed the barrel step by step toward the edge of the territory.I thought I had succeeded, but when I started running down the rugged path, Leah was standing there with two vicious rogues behind her.She smiled eerily."Yv
