LOGINMy father, the Beta of our pack, had sworn our bloodline to serve the Alpha King, Andrew Amadeus. By tradition, I was destined to be his mate. The night before our mating ceremony, I risked everything to save my stepsister, Emma Hughes, crossing into rogue territory—Wild Nest. I fought fiercely but was overpowered. At the ceremony, a cursed projection stone revealed my assault by the rogues. The pack recoiled in disgust. Andrew, seething with rage, rejected me and marked Emma instead, making her Luna Queen. To them, I was a disgrace, unworthy of an Alpha’s mark. As they called for my exile, Andrew’s younger brother, Anthony Amadeus, stepped forward. "Sophia Hughes, I have loved you in silence. By the name of the moon, I vow to be your mate for eternity." His words saved me. A year later, the healer told me I could finally carry a pup. Overjoyed, I rushed to find Anthony—only to overhear a chilling conversation. "Anthony, we helped the rogues infiltrate, lured Sophia to Wild Nest, and spread the video. She trusts you now… did we make a mistake?" He sighed. "For Emma to become Queen, Sophia had to be sacrificed. But it doesn’t matter—I’ll spend my life making it up to her." Betrayal cut deeper than any wound. My suffering had been planned. But if they thought I was broken, they had underestimated me. I would carve my own fate—with claws bared.
View MoreAnthony arrived with his warriors, sending the remaining rogues of Wild Nest scattering in fear. He walked toward me slowly, his expression one of disbelief."Sophia, it's really you. I'm not dreaming, am I?"He had lost a lot of weight, and the madness in his eyes replaced the calm, gentlemanly demeanor he once had.Instinctively, I stepped back, raising my silver gun and aiming it at his chest. "Leave. Or die."His voice wavered. "Sophia, do you really hate me that much? I know I'm in the wrong. I don't love Emma anymore. I know you saw my sketches of her, but that's in the past now. Every day now, I draw only you. Just give me a chance—I'll spend my whole life making it up to you."I let out a cold laugh and pulled the trigger, and the silver bullet grazed his cheek. My voice shook with rage as I hissed, saying, "Does that erase what you did to me? I trusted you with everything I had, and you betrayed me in the worst way!"You let those rogues violate me, torture me. You didn'
Sophia Hughes' POVI felt nothing but pain. My chest still ached, and the burning sensation from the silver spike lingered deep in my flesh.I barely furrowed my brows, yet the werewolves around me immediately turned their attention toward me."Does it still hurt?"I recognized the man who spoke—Kent Lycan, Alpha King of the Shadow Moon Pack.Three years ago, I saved his life. He had offered me a place in his pack with an irresistible deal, but I had refused—I could never betray my family or my mate. At least, not unless they betrayed me first.I mumbled, "Sorry, I'm too weak right now. I don't think I can be much help to you."Kent shrugged. "Once a warrior, always a warrior. You just need time."I tried to sit up, and he reached out to steady me, but I instinctively flinched away. "Sorry…"Kent, of course, knew about my past. If he had not happened to pass through Wild Nest a year ago, I would have been torn apart by those rogues. Back then, he had asked if I wanted him to t
Suddenly, I realized I had seen the document before. Right before the Hunting Festival, I had watched Sophia hide it away.However, I had been too confident, too distracted by the thought of finally seeing Emma again, to care about whatever Sophia was up to back then. Now, her signature was there in black ink—she had officially requested to sever our mate bond.A searing pain tore through my chest, spreading to every place where she had once marked me. It felt like I was burning alive from the inside out.My legs gave out, and I collapsed to my knees. That was when I noticed a wooden keepsake box tucked beneath the desk—the one where I had stored all my sketches of Emma.When I saw that it had been opened, my blood ran ice-cold. I thought, 'Did Sophia see everything inside?'With trembling hands, I lifted the lid. Every sketch held the same haunting truth—I had written down my thoughts on each drawing.[Dear Emma, you look so beautiful in a wedding dress. However, I could only wa
Anthony Amadeus' POVWhen Sophia ignored my mind-link messages, a strange panic crawled up my spine. She had always feared abandonment, so she listened to everything I said. Yet, she had just refused my offer to take her on a trip.I shot to my feet and stormed toward the door, thinking, 'That damn woman! I must've spoiled her too much! I've already apologized, yet she has the nerve to give me the silent treatment!'Just then, Emma called out from behind me, her voice laced with fear. "Anthony, where are you going? I'm scared! Don't leave me here alone!"Annoyance prickled at me. After all, it was just a tiny scrape on her head—nothing serious.When Sophia's wounds festered and the rotting flesh had to be cut away, she still managed to smile at me, her voice trembling as she reassured me by saying, "It just looks bad. It doesn't hurt that much."Then again, I had loved Emma for so many years, so I left two of my men behind to watch over her.I sped through the roads, my car tear
