Synopsis

Tragic Love

Regret

Melodramatic

Mate

Girl Power

Winning Back the Wife

For ten years, I spent by Damien Thorne's side, helping him transform from a servant's son into the powerful Alpha of Shadow Pack. I believed I would eventually see the day he'd claim me as his mate. Instead, he brought home Scarlett Rivers, his childhood sweetheart who had been living abroad, treating her like precious royalty while making her his Luna. To help his beloved Scarlett and free her parents from prison, Damien handed over my healing potion patents without hesitation. Even my own son was placed in Scarlett's care to secure her position as Shadow Pack's Luna. I became everything to Damien—his financial backer, his assistant, his healer, his bed partner—everything except what I truly wanted to be: his rightful mate. "Just wait a little longer," Damien always promised me. "Once I repay my debt to my childhood benefactor, you'll be my only mate." So, I kept waiting and waiting. But Damien seemed to forget his promises entirely. Even my own child began to despise me. Suddenly, exhaustion hit me like a tidal wave. Waiting felt pointless. I didn't want to do it anymore.

Chapter 1

For ten years, I stayed by Damien Thorne's side, helping him grow from a servant's son to the Alpha of Shadow Pack.

I believed I would eventually see the day he'd claim me as his mate. Instead, he brought home Scarlett Rivers and marked her his Luna. To help his beloved Scarlett and free her parents from prison, Damien handed over my healing potion patents without hesitation.

The television droned on about Scarlett’s parents' joyful reunion with their family following their release from prison. Watching their warm embrace on screen, I realized my years of devotion had been nothing but a cruel joke.

Standing there, I reflected on all my sacrifices. Besides touching my own heart, who else had ever cared?

"Elena Blackwood! What are you doing just standing there? I told you to get the paint supplies. Who gave you permission to slack off?"

A sharpened pencil flew through the air, stabbing deep into my arm and leaving a shocking bloody wound.

The next moment, Scarlett emerged from the room and protectively pulled my son behind her skirts.

"He's just a child who doesn't know better. Miss Elena, please don't take it personally."

"If you have complaints, direct them at me—his mother!"

Scarlett played the perfect maternal figure. Pain shot through my chest like a silver dagger.

I had only been lost in thought for a few seconds, but Marcus had unleashed all his fury on me.

"Mommy, I want to draw a family picture of you and Daddy. This bad woman didn't bring the paints because she can't stand seeing our family happy!"

"Can we make her go away?"

Marcus glared at me with pure hatred while clinging to Scarlett with absolute trust.

My heart shattered into countless pieces. I remembered Damien's words the day he brought Scarlett home.

"Scarlett and I grew up together. Her parents were wrongfully imprisoned. I have to seek justice for her."

"Don't worry. Once everything settles down, you'll be my only mate."

So I waited and compromised. What did I receive in return? My son's disgust for his own mother.

What I earned was Damien's growing impatience with me each passing day.

"This drawing looks terrible! Without proper paints, it doesn't capture my beautiful mommy at all."

Marcus crumpled up his artwork and hurled it at my feet.

"Elena, if you can't manage the child properly, leave everything to Scarlett from now on!"

Damien appeared behind them. He didn't ask about my injury but naturally took Scarlett's hand in his.

The three of them formed a perfect family unit, their harmony undeniable.

I stood there like an unwelcome intruder, completely out of place.

"Marcus! Didn't I teach you to show respect to Aunt Elena?"

"She's just our caretaker. I can treat her however I want!"

Scarlett shook her head with fond indulgence. "You shouldn't say such things!"

A caretaker? How utterly ridiculous!

Yet it was clearly Damien who had knelt before me, begging. He said to temporarily let Scarlett raise my son to secure her position as Shadow Pack's Luna.

"Once Scarlett's parents are freed, I'll hold the ceremony. Everyone will return to their rightful place."

"You will always be Marcus's only mother!"

But I kept waiting and waiting. Scarlett's parents had already been released from prison, yet my son had truly accepted Scarlett as his mother.

Chapter 2
The next morning brought an unusual surprise—Damien actually joined me for breakfast.For two long years, he'd been consumed with overturning the Rivers family's case. Every waking moment was spent building political connections and hunting down evidence to clear their names.Our conversations had dwindled to mere pleasantries. Even when he was physically present in our home, his attention belonged entirely to Scarlett and Marcus.Seeing his face across from me now felt surreal, like encountering a stranger wearing my lover's skin.Damien carefully placed a slice of perfectly seasoned venison on my plate. "You've been working so hard taking care of Marcus. Look how much weight you've lost."I stared down at the meat but couldn't bring myself to touch it.He released a heavy sigh. "I know you're angry with me. These past years have been incredibly difficult for you, and I haven't been fair.""But everything's about to change. The Rivers family will reclaim their rightful place in societ

That night, I was jolted awake by the crushing weight of someone pressing down on my chest, cutting off my air supply.My lungs burned as I fought desperately against the suffocating pressure. In my panic, I managed to shove my attacker off me, sending them tumbling to the floor.When I fumbled for the light switch, my blood turned to ice.It was Marcus. My own five-year-old son."Elena Blackwood! You evil woman!" His small face was twisted with pure hatred. "If it weren't for you, why wouldn't Mom want me?""You're just a lowly caretaker! Why don't you just die?"The venom in his voice hit me harder than any physical blow. This child who stood before me, radiating such intense loathing, was the same baby whose first cries had sounded like a tiny wolf pup's howls.I remembered the agony of his birth. The complications that nearly killed me as I bled out on the operating table. Damien had actually told the doctor to prioritize saving me over the baby, but I'd fought with every ounce of

Damien always claimed he and Scarlett were childhood friends who grew up together.The reality was far different. He was nothing more than a servant's son in the Rivers Pack, scraping by on scraps and charity.Without my intervention, without my family's vast resources paving his path to power, he would have remained exactly what he was born to be—a nobody who could work his entire miserable life and never amount to anything.But now that I'd molded him into someone worthy of standing beside me, his heart belonged to someone else entirely."Miss Blackwood, here's the guest list for the welcoming ceremony in three days."The Beta Secretary's voice dripped with barely concealed disdain as she thrust the papers toward me."Alpha Thorne specifically instructed me to tell you not to cause any scenes. This ceremony cannot have a single flaw."She paused, her lips curling into a sneer. "Otherwise...""Otherwise what?" I challenged, meeting her contemptuous gaze head-on.She stammered, unable

The plane touched down faster than I expected. One moment I was closing my eyes, exhausted from everything that had happened, and the next I was opening them to see the familiar landscape of the Southern Territory stretching out below me.Every sight that greeted me felt like a warm embrace. The rolling hills, the ancient oak trees lining the roads, even the way the sunlight hit the buildings—everything was exactly as I remembered.My parents —— Alpha King Victor and Luna Queen Isabella were already waiting at the airport when I emerged from the terminal. They had been standing there for who knows how long, their faces lighting up the moment they spotted me.The Blackwood Pack ruled as the wealthiest and most powerful pack in the Southern Territory, but we had never been the type of royalty to look down on others from our ivory tower.From my earliest memories, my parents had drilled into me that our wealth and influence came with responsibility. We were meant to lift others up, to hel

Adrian Silverstone had returned from abroad at some point, and when I finally saw him again, I was genuinely shocked by the transformation.The boy who had once been as delicate as fine porcelain now possessed sun-kissed skin and muscles that rippled with quiet strength. He looked like a powerful young wolf, ready to defend what mattered to him."Elena Blackwood, long time no see."Despite his dramatic physical changes, that naturally shy personality remained completely unchanged. I could see his ears turning crimson with embarrassment as he spoke.For reasons I couldn't quite explain, warmth crept up my own cheeks in response.His family operated a successful chain of taverns throughout the territory, and today's meeting was specifically to discuss the venue arrangements for my birthday celebration in three days.My parents watched our interaction with barely contained excitement dancing in their eyes."Daughter, are you two perhaps...?""We've watched Adrian grow up since he was just

Damien's face contorted with anguish and pain, his features twisted into something I barely recognized."I've been with you for ten years, and in just two short days, you're already with another man?"His voice cracked with desperation. "Or have you already betrayed me? Have you been seeing him behind my back this whole time?"The accusations spilling from his lips were so absurd that laughter bubbled up from my chest—cold, bitter laughter that surprised even me."Damien Thorne, do I need to remind you that you have a mate? You think it's ridiculous that I'm betraying you?"His eyes blazed crimson with fury and something that looked dangerously close to madness."You clearly know this is all fake! You're the only person I've ever truly loved.""Soon you'll be able to become my rightful mate. Just wait a little longer."The familiar refrain made my stomach turn. How many times had I heard those exact words? How many years had I wasted believing them?"But I've waited enough," I said wit

Hearing Adrian bring up those childhood memories made heat rise to my cheeks. The embarrassment was almost unbearable."Stop talking about it..." I mumbled, covering my ears with both hands like a child trying to block out teasing.But Adrian's voice found its way through my defenses anyway, soft and intimate against my ear."Do you know how jealous I was of that man? I worked so hard for ten years to become worthy of you, but he took advantage when you were vulnerable."His breath was warm against my skin as he continued. "Do you know that when I heard you were in love while I was abroad, I almost left this world?"The raw pain in his voice made my chest tighten. All those years, while I'd been pouring my heart into someone who didn't deserve it, Adrian had been suffering in silence."Luckily, that man had no vision. Even if I'm being shameless, would you be willing to be with me?"Before I could even process his question, a familiar voice cut through the moment like a blade."She won

For several days now, Damien Thorne has been desperately searching for any trace of me throughout the territory.The irony isn't lost on me. To protect his fragile ego all those years ago, I'd told him I was nothing more than an illegitimate daughter of the Blackwood family—a shameful secret they barely acknowledged.Now he watches me come and go from the Blackwood Estate like I own the place, but he only dares lurk outside the gates like some pathetic stalker.He doesn't dare set foot on our property.Even with all his newfound power as Shadow Pack's Alpha, he knows better than to openly challenge the royal family of the Southern Territory. The Blackwood Pack could crush his little operation without breaking a sweat.But desperation makes people do foolish things.Today he brought Marcus with him.My barely five-year-old son stands wilting under the brutal afternoon sun, his small lips already pale from the heat.

"How dare you let those filthy men touch your body!" Damien's voice cracked with rage. "Am I being too nice to you? Is that why you think you can do this to me?"His eyes blazed with a madness I'd never seen before. The composed Alpha facade had completely crumbled, revealing the unstable man beneath."Do you know what it did to me? Seeing you with that man made me lose my mind! I wanted to kill both of you! You absolutely cannot betray me!"Before I could react, his mouth crashed against mine with desperate hunger. The kiss was violent, possessive, meant to claim rather than cherish.All I could think about was how this same mouth had kissed Scarlett. How many times had he whispered sweet promises to her with these lips? The thought made my stomach churn with revulsion.I waited for the right moment, then drove my knee upward with all the force I could muster.Damien collapsed to the ground, his face contorting in agony as he clutched himself."I warned you!"
