Synopsis

Winning Back the Wife

Melodramatic

Mate

Regret

Awakening

Best Friend

The night I have my bonding ceremony with the Alpha, Walter Zimmer, he gets drunk even though he usually never touches any alcohol. Just as I'm at a loss for what to do, my best friend, Rose Larson, sends me a message detailing how to take care of a drunken werewolf. Despite feeling doubtful, I do as she suggests, and Walter truly does fall asleep peacefully. Just as I'm about to thank Rose, Walter suddenly hugs me from behind. His hot breath brushes against my neck as he murmurs a sentence that utterly breaks my heart. "Rose, you're the one I wanted to mark…" My world crumbles around me, but that's not all. His shirt slips down his shoulder when he moves, revealing the rose tattooed right over his heart. My mind goes blank, and all I can do is stare at the tattoo. I refuse to believe what I'm seeing. I've known Rose for 20 years, and she's my closest friend. As it turns out, Walter didn't get drunk because he was overjoyed about becoming my mate. He simply used the alcohol to drown his sorrows over not being able to take the she-wolf he wanted as his Luna. In that moment, our newly formed mate bond seems like nothing but a joke. Since that's the case, I decide to give up my position as the Luna and let them be together. However, after I leave, Walter loses control and shifts into his wolf. He then claws the rose tattoo to shreds. "Lily, I was mistaken. You're the Luna I truly love. Please, give me another chance to love you again…"

Beside me, Walter's breathing was even as he slept deeply. He had one arm wrapped around my waist possessively, as though it belonged there.Yet, all I felt was a burning heat where his skin touched mine. It was so hot that I wanted nothing more than to escape.My entire body was as stiff as a rock as I slowly extricated myself from his grip. Only when my back bumped into the chilly wall of the room did I finally breathe a sigh of relief.I couldn't sleep at all. Everything I had learned tonight raged through my mind chaotically. Just as I thought I would be tormented by these emotions the entire night, my phone suddenly lit up.At this point, I didn't even need to glance at it to know it was Rose.As expected, she had sent me a message. "Lily, Walter didn't get angry at you because of me, did he? He's always had a short fuse, so don't take it to heart. If he dares to bully you, just tell me, and I'll punish him for you."On the surface, it may have seemed like she was expressing

I accepted the call and heard Rose's usual warm, enthusiastic voice over the line. "Lily, Walter was so tired that he fell asleep, so he won't be going back tonight. You don't have to worry. Listen, he's even talking in his sleep."Following that, I heard Walter mumbling, "Rose, don't be scared. I'm right here…"It felt like a large hand had clamped around my heart and squeezed tightly. The agony made me feel as though I were suffocating, and I hurriedly ended the call.However, in the next second, my phone chimed. Rose had sent me another photo.In the photo, Walter was lying on his side on the bed, while Rose was curled up against him like a docile kitten. She was even using his arm as a pillow.Without a doubt, this position was almost exactly like the one in the photo I had sent her last night.But what truly shattered me was the sight of the moonstone necklace around her neck.That necklace was a Zimmer family heirloom that symbolized the Luna. It was said to bring good luc

The moment I stepped outside, I was instantly drenched to the skin by the chilly rain, making my already cold heart feel even more numb. At the same time, it also cleared my mind.My body was still trembling slightly from my earlier allergic reaction, but what truly scared me was the faint waves of pain coming from my abdomen.My pup…I had just gone through such an intense fluctuation of emotions and suffered from a severe allergic reaction… Would my pup still be fine?The thought immediately made me forget the heartache of Walter and Rose's betrayal, leaving only a mother's fear for her pup.Disregarding everything else, I hurriedly stopped a cab and rushed over to see the best healer in the pack. On the way there, I dialed Mom's number with shaking fingers.The moment the call connected and I heard Mom's gentle voice over the line, all the grievances I had suffered the past few days boiled over. Tears streamed down my cheeks like water through a broken dam.I cried so much th

I ignored Walter's question. Rose, however, was more than happy to go along with Candace and Marcus' words. Wiping her tears, she seemed utterly sincere as she said, "Mr. and Mrs. Zimmer are right, Lily. You've really misunderstood—Walter didn't cheat on you. Sure, we're really close, but we truly didn't do anything wrong by you! We're innocent!"Her words sounded like an explanation on the surface, but it was clear she was implying that the problem between me and Walter stemmed from me being unreasonable.Hearing that, Candace approached Rose and pushed her away. She snapped impatiently, "You have no right to speak up here! You're just an Omega, so what are you doing meddling in our families' business?"Rose hadn't expected Candace to be so hostile toward her. In an instant, she looked embarrassed. Tears swirled in her eyes as she said, "Mrs. Zimmer, I'm really not…"Nonetheless, Candace couldn't be fooled by such tricks. She exuded a strong presence that reminded everyone prese

Rose paled, her hand instinctively flying up to grab the necklace.Marcus' and Candace's faces fell. Naturally, they recognized the necklace.Pointing a finger at Rose, Candace uttered in a quavering voice, "You… Why do you have that necklace?"To say my parents' expressions were dark was an understatement. Dad let out a scoff before looking at Marcus. "Is this what you meant when you said he was keeping himself pure?"Marcus was so infuriated that his lips were trembling. Whipping around, he landed a harsh smack across Walter's cheek. "You bastard! This is for going down the wrong path!"He grabbed Walter by the collar and dragged him over to my bed, pressing him down on the bed before me."Lily is pregnant with your pup, yet you gifted the Luna's necklace to another she-wolf! Do you think you've done right by her? How could you do that to her? To her parents, your mother, and me? Hurry up and apologize to Lily!"By this point, Dad had reached his limit. He took a step forward

Walter's tears were hot as they soaked my clothes, but I didn't feel even the slightest bit moved. Over his shoulder, I could see Rose's ghastly pale face as she stared in disbelief at him.She had meticulously planned out everything, yet in the face of Walter's apparent love for me, it had all crumbled to dust.Seeing the way Walter humbled himself in his desperation to make me stay, she bit her lip hard. She was unwilling to admit defeat, and a crazed glint flashed in her eyes.Walking over to Walter, she looked at him intently. "Walter, don't you love me? Why don't you leave with me right now?"As she spoke, she extended her hand toward him, as though she were giving him one last chance to make a choice.Walter's arms, which were still wrapped around me, tensed before he slowly lifted his head to reveal his bloodshot eyes. For the first time ever, a hint of clarity and resolution shone in them as he looked at Rose.Shaking his head, he replied hoarsely, "Leave, Rose. Don't eve

I replied placidly, "Is that so? Then why doesn't he want you now?"Rose's breathing grew faster for a moment, but several seconds later, she calmed down again."Did you know? The night before your bonding ceremony, he came to me, crying sorrowfully. He said that as long as I was willing, he would give you up and perform the bonding ceremony with me instead."But I rejected him. Lily, in that instant, I found myself truly pitying you. The werewolf you loved so deeply actually only had eyes for someone else. That was also the reason I didn't agree to his request."You'd always been superior to me, whether in terms of family background, looks, strength, or talents… But now, I've finally beaten you at something."She sighed in contentment, as though it were some sort of major achievement.Hearing her words, I was slightly stunned. Only now did I realize that she had always compared herself to me, even though I had never thought of her as an opponent.I couldn't help but ask, "Why d
