My mate, Luther Evans, had spent 20 thousand dollars on two first-class tickets for the Moonlight Express to Vespera Coast. Just as we were about to board, he pulled me aside and gave my seat to my foster sister, Zoey Turner. He explained, "There's only one empty seat left on the train, and Zoey's son has never seen the ocean before. This is the perfect chance. Kids can't be separated from their mothers, so I'll take them first and get them settled, then come back for you." I nodded and stepped off the train, watching it disappear into the distance. Once they reached the beach, a friend asked Luther why I hadn't come along. He was busy inflating a pool float for Zoey, answering casually without looking up. "The Moonlight Express runs every three days. Avery Smith can just buy her own ticket and come later. I'll pick up some gifts to make it up to her. She's really understanding and won't stay mad at me." A bitter smile tugged at the corners of my mouth. The whole family had always favored Zoey, and now even my own mate was no different. Since nobody wanted to see me anyway, I decided I would leave in three days.

The Moonlight Express Chapter 8
During the three years I was gone, Luther had never stopped searching for me. The excessive stress and anxiety caused mental exhaustion, and the constant traveling wore down his body, leaving his spirit deeply fatigued and unable to sleep. To suppress his mental instability, he began taking suppressants. Initially, the dosage was mild, but as his episodes became more frequent, he needed stronger and stronger medication. Now the drugs barely worked at all. When I stepped into the ward, the dull haze in his eyes lit up instantly. He teared up as he tried to sit up, but the movement pulled at his IV needle. Tessa rushed to call the doctor, but he only kept his gaze fixed on me. It was as if he was asking silently, "You won't leave again, right?" Tessa stood beside me, her expression was sorrowful as she turned to me, her eyes pleading. I gave a faint shake of my head and said softly, "We'll talk when you're strong enough to sit." He nodded, and a smile appeared at the cor
The Moonlight Express Chapter 7
Seeing that Mom's tone was not harsh, Zoey smiled even more brightly. "I had the servants temporarily move everything to the basement. William needs space for training, and the bed and cabinets take up too much room. I was worried he might bump into them." "There are so many empty rooms in the mansion, so why did you specifically have to use Avery's room and move her personal belongings?" Mom's voice grew colder. Zoey remained unfazed as she replied, "But the other rooms are so small, and they're not suitable at all. Avery's room has so much stuff, so I cleared it out for training. Jasper, don't you agree with me?" This time, Jasper remained silent. Zoey's smile froze, and her eyes immediately reddened. Moments later, tears slid down her cheeks. She took William's hand and sobbed quietly. "I'm sorry, it's my fault. I'll take William and leave right now." "Good, go ahead." Before Mom could speak, Jasper coldly uttered those words. Then, he instructed the servants to rest
The Moonlight Express Chapter 6
Luther's angry roar carried the dominance of a male wolf, scaring William into tears. Just then, Jasper came home from the academy and witnessed the scene. "Are you insane?" He quickly stepped forward, picked up William, and wiped the little cub's tears while frowning and gently soothing him. A servant standing nearby spoke in a low voice, "Ms. Turner asked me to handle it. She said the rug had gotten muddy and stained, and told me to dispose of it quickly." Luther's gaze slowly settled on Zoey, his entire presence radiating coldness. She smiled gently and explained, "William got playful and left claw marks on it. I thought I'd redecorate Avery's room so she'd feel better when she came back." … Luther stared at her, his eyes growing increasingly cold. Ever since Avery had returned to the Smith family, he had witnessed too many times how she was "accidentally" tripped or pushed aside by Zoey. He had also heard Zoey speak ill of Avery behind her back. Now, with Avery
The Moonlight Express Chapter 5
I returned to the northern border village where I had once lived for ten years, that harsh land of snow and battlefields. During those years away, no one from the Smith family had asked after me. Even Luther never wanted to hear about it. I knew the contempt he felt in his heart. I came from a "disreputable" rogue wolf pack, one too far removed from the honor of their bloodline. … When I didn't show up for breakfast the next morning, Mom's face darkened. In the Smith residence, everyone was required to sit at the table. It was part of preserving the order of bloodlines. So, Mom sent a servant to my room. "Mrs. Smith, Ms. Smith left before dawn with her luggage. She said she was traveling to the northern territories with Mr. Evans." I ran into the servant when leaving that morning. To avoid suspicion, I casually mentioned I was going on a trip. Mom's eyes filled with disdain. She scoffed. "I thought she might actually sever their bond, but she's just trying to spite Zo
