On the day of my first shift, my Alpha triplet adoptive brothers weren't by my side for the first time ever, because their long-lost birth sister Scarlett had returned.

They even told me to get out and never come back for his birth sister's sake.

To fight again Rogue wolves,The Alpha King had gathered the most elite warriors from each pack for a Beta Wolf Enhancement Program—a secret project that would last ten years, with no contact with the outside world.

The day I volunteered for this research project happened to be the anniversary of my parents' death.

My parents had once been the pack's most outstanding warriors, but fifteen years ago, they died in battle protecting my brothers' parents—the former Alpha and Luna—during a rogue wolf attack.

From that day on, my brothers adopted me, saying I would be their little sister forever.

Before, my three foster brothers would always stay by my side on this day. But since their birth sister returned, we never mourned my parents together again.

The research project director escorted me out of the institute and gently reminded me:

"We depart in seven days. Olivia, say proper goodbyes to your family. You won't be able to see them for a very long time."

The central camp where we lived was spring-like year-round, but my heart was frozen solid.

I stood on the street for a long time.

After all, we had been siblings for over twenty years.

Surprisingly, they blocked our mind link connection.

I had to swallow my pride and contact Mason through our housekeeper.

But when Mason heard my voice, he impatiently demanded, "Why can't you just get along with Scarlett? She's just an Omega. You shouldn't be conflicting with her."

I defended myself, saying I hadn't done anything wrong. It was Scarlett who mocked me for not having parents and for stealing her brothers' affection.

Mason clearly didn't believe me. "If you keep telling lies like this, you can leave forever and never come back. Scarlett was separated from us before and had a terrible life. We should all make it up to her, especially you."

I felt even worse, but thinking about the significance of today, I still wanted to be with my brothers.

I unconsciously sped up my words:

"Today is the anniversary of my parents' death. Could you brothers accompany me to pay respects to them? We've always done it together before."

I carefully added:

"I won't argue with Scarlett anymore. She can have whatever she wants."

Scarlett was my brothers' birth sister after all.

His tone was cold and impatient: "Thanks to you, Scarlett's eyes are swollen from crying. How dare you even mention her?"

I pretended not to hear his disgust: "Please, just this one last time?"

Perhaps out of guilt toward my parents, or perhaps moved by the desperation in my voice, Mason relented.

I had never begged like this before.

Since Scarlett arrived, I had argued with the brothers for years.

Even during our worst fights, I had never been willing to bow my head.

But this time...

Perhaps after this goodbye, no one would know when we'd meet again.

The other end went silent.

After a while, it was Scarlett's childish, soft voice that broke the deadlock:

"Go ahead. After all, they were our parents' lifesavers."

I immediately responded: "Then I'll come pick you all up."

After saying this, afraid they might refuse again, I hurriedly ended the call.

    I remembered that heavy snowfall from so long ago, the day my parents died. The not-yet-twenty-year-old Mason who had held me tightly against his chest, his own tears falling into my hair as he promised me I wasn't alone."As long as your brothers are here, Olivia, you'll always have a home."Years of memories, looking back, seemed like nothing but a distant dream—the good ones and the painful ones alike."I remember," I said softly, not even sure if he could hear me. "I remember when you three took me sledding at Wolf Ridge. And how you threatened Tommy Walker when he pushed me down at school."Mason's eyes filled with tears. He tried to nod."I remember how you read to me when I was scared during thunderstorms," I continued, the words coming unbidden now. "And how you taught me to drive, even though I crashed your new car into that fence."His face was ashen gray now, his breathing becoming increasingly labored. The nurse hovered nearby, clearly concerned by the numbers on the monito

    As I straightened up, I glanced out the window and saw Mason, Ethan, and Hunter had stopped walking and turned back toward the house. They were just close enough to see me placing their gifts on the ground.Even from a distance, I could read their expressions—identical looks of sorrow and dismay crossed their faces before they quickly turned away, continuing their slow retreat.Hours later, as Derek and I were preparing for bed, the phone rang. It was nearly midnight—too late for casual calls.I answered, a sense of foreboding already settling in my stomach."Mrs. Blackwood?" an unfamiliar voice asked. "This is Crescent Moon Hospital. I'm calling about Mason Paine."My hand tightened around the receiver. "What about him?""He's been admitted in critical condition. His brothers asked us to contact you." The nurse's voice softened. "The doctors don't expect him to make it through the night. They wanted to know if you wished to see him one last time."I ended up rushing to the hospital, t

    At thirty-seven, Derek and I became mates after years of working side by side in the research institute. Derek had always been protective of me, even more so after we mated. When we discussed having children, his brow furrowed with concern."Olivia, werewolf pregnancies are risky even for younger females," he said one night. "I can't risk losing you. I've watched you nearly die too many times during our missions."His eyes, usually so confident, held a vulnerability I rarely saw. I knew he was remembering the time a rogue wolf had nearly torn out my throat during a weapons test gone wrong."We have other options," I told him, squeezing his hand reassuringly.We visited several pack orphanages before we found her—a tiny newborn with silver-blonde hair and bright green eyes. "She's the one," he whispered. We named her Lily.When Lily turned three, I organized a birthday celebration. Nothing extravagant—just a gathering with other pack children, some fellow researchers, and Derek's fami

    How long had it been since my brothers called me "Liv"?I couldn't remember.The people accompanying me saw the situation and left first.Derek gently patted my shoulder: "Olivia, I'll wait for you outside."I nodded.Turning around, I saw Mason, Ethan, and Hunter hastily walking toward me.At about two steps away, they seemed afraid to come any closer and stopped.I looked at them, followed by a long silence.Until Hunter spoke hoarsely: "Have you been well all these years?"I replied gently: "I've been quite well."Ethan struggled to contain himself, his eyes revealing immense pain and regret:"About Scarlett, we know everything now."Olivia, your brothers... we're sorry."My heart no longer stirred with ripples of emotion.I just calmly said: "It's okay. It's all in the past."Mason's face trembled. After a while, he carefully asked: "Could we... have a meal together?"I shook my head: "I'd rather not."The hope in their eyes instantly dimmed.I didn't linger any longer and turned t

    I left the research institute twelve years later.The Beta Wolf Enhancement program development was a complete success, with many Beta level warriors suppressing the rogue wolves who had waged war so recklessly.That day, I attended the release conference with my fellow researchers and mentors.Many werewolves came to the venue voluntarily, emotional and tearful with gratitude.That day also happened to be the anniversary of my parents' sacrifice.Now, my efforts could help stop wars and bring peace.Perhaps in the underworld, my parents could finally rest in peace?I accepted the flowers from the werewolves and interviews from the swarming reporters.In the crowded scene, my gaze suddenly collided with a familiar pair of eyes.Across the surging crowd, I abruptly saw Mason in the distance, with Ethan and Hunter accompanying him.After twelve years without seeing them, they had begun to age, just like me.They were all over forty now.Ethan had fine lines around his eyes, and Hunter's

    Mason spoke in a daze: "There must be a way."I'll think of something, think of something. I must be able to find her."The director sighed softly: "Forgive my bluntness."Rogue wolves frequently attack various packs, causing massive casualties. This Beta Wolf Enhancement research is extremely important."Security cannot be compromised, which would give rogue wolves an opportunity to strike."This time, until the research is complete, no outsider will be able to find them."Mason, as if his soul had departed, stubbornly replied: "I will find a way."The director couldn't help but remind him: "If you make a big show of searching for Olivia, you might bring danger to her."Alpha, don't forget her parents died saving you."If you truly care about Olivia... respect her choice."Mason's pupils trembled violently.The heavy snow in the deep night had frozen the vast northern city into a silver-white world.It seemed to have thoroughly frozen him as well.He stood motionless, even his fingert
