Chapter 1

The exact moment Reyn Aldric was officially reinstated as the heir of the Frostfang Clan in the Moonlit Hall, I received a message from my attending witch doctor, Ivy Harrington. "Serena, if you don't replace your heart soon, you won't have much time left."On the grand stage, the presiding elder asked Reyn to share a defining moment before his return to the royal bloodline.Reyn's piercing gaze swept toward my seat."Speaking of unforgettable moments," Reyn said coldly, "I'd like to ask Selena Valtara from the Sanctuary of Healing—when you left me for money and status, did you ever regret it?"My face flushed red, but the life-or-death notice, still fresh in my mind, kept me composed."Your Highness, congratulations on reclaiming your place in the Frostborne royal family. So, would you be willing to lend me three million dollars?"The hall fell into dead silence, broken only by a thunderous command, "Throw her out! From now on, I never want to see this greedy woman again!"I

Reyn's silver hair bristled with sharp aggression once more. "Selena, I didn't expect you to be this manipulative! You knew I was coming to audit the funds—you staged this entire act just to gain sympathy!" His voice thundered with fury. "You're just as scheming and greedy as you were five years ago! All you ever care about is money!"I slowly stood, my gaze settling on Reyn's strong and healthy frame. A faint smile curled my lips as I silently bent down to pick up my medical records."Reyn, since you already know how much I love money, why not lend me another two million dollars?"The mechanical heart surgery couldn't be delayed any longer. I truly needed the money.Yesterday, after I received the three million dollars, I made a prepayment for the heart replacement surgery, only for Ivy to tell me that three million dollars barely covered the cost of materials. The surgery itself, along with post-operative care, would require at least another two million dollars.Five million d

"Ledger? My apologies, Mr. Rothwell, but I happen to have one as well," Luna said smugly. "It clearly records that Selena embezzled a total of three million dollars. And what a coincidence—Ms. Valtara's personal account shows an expense of exactly three million dollars just yesterday."Luna's smile darkened as she continued, "It's hard not to suspect that Ms. Valtara knew about our audit beforehand and took measures to transfer the stolen funds."Everyone turned to look at me in confusion. "Ms. Valtara, do you have anything to say for yourself?" Reyn's voice was cold, but there was a hint of expectation hidden beneath.Yet no one knew about my mechanical heart, except for Ivy, my witch doctor. To my colleagues at the Sanctuary of Healing, I was simply a poor woman with a weak heart; they didn't think it was anything serious enough to disrupt my daily life."There's nothing to explain, Reyn. You, of all people, should know exactly where that three million dollars came from." My voice w

I had no strength left to stop Ivy from revealing the truth as I collapsed into a pool of my own blood.Through my haze, I felt someone lift me up. The embrace was warm—so warm that it reminded me of the way I used to curl into my mother's arms as a child."Selena! Selena! Don't fall asleep—stay with me! We're almost at the hospital!" Ivy's voice trembled with sobs.I wanted to reach out, pat her head, and tell her not to worry. But my body no longer obeyed me.Darkness swallowed my vision, yet something cold and wet landed on my face. It was so familiar, it reminded me of snowflakes melting against my skin the first time I met Reyn.My mind drifted back to that day.Reyn and I first met on a vast, snow-covered plain. I was an orphaned war wolf—my parents died defending the borders of our clan. I grew up in the Frostfang Clan's Wolfkin Sanctuary, living among others like me.That day, I found Reyn lying in the snow, barely clinging to life.He was once the rightful prince and h

"Selena, wake up! Selena!" Ivy's urgent voice jolted me out of my memories."Thank the heavens, you're finally awake! I thought you'd never wake up again."Tears streamed down her face as she cried even harder. "That Reyn isn't worth your devotion! You've sacrificed so much for him, yet he humiliated you like this and even let you get injured in a duel! "If I hadn't gone looking for you when you missed your appointment, you could have died. Do you even realize that?""Thank you, Ivy. You saved my life again," I said, sincerely grateful to her. "I'm not saying this to make you thank me. I just want you to see Reyn for what he really is. Does he truly deserve everything you've done for him?"Just as Ivy finished speaking, the door swung open.It was Reyn and Luna. Reyn strode in, his face filled with urgency and concern. The moment he saw I was awake, he let out a deep breath of relief."Well, well, well. Selena is perfectly fine. If people didn't know better, they might think

After I got a few days of rest, my surgery was scheduled for the next day. Because of the injuries I sustained in the duel, Ivy told me the surgery—once a guaranteed success—now had a 10% lower chance due to my weakened condition. She wanted me to be mentally prepared.So when Reyn asked to meet, I hesitated for a long time before finally deciding to go to the coffee shop.But I never expected the person waiting for me to be Luna."Selena, I knew you'd show up. It just proves you still have improper thoughts about Reyn." Luna's voice was laced with jealousy and hatred.I knew my actions could easily be misunderstood. The truth was, I only came because I wanted to see Reyn one last time, just in case the surgery failed.Seeing Luna there, I had no choice but to lie. "Sorry, Ms. Everhart. I was just passing by and decided to get a cup of coffee." "Still trying to deny it? You didn't see this coming, did you? I was the one who sent you the invitation using Reyn's name. Ha! Now that

"I just wanted Ms. Valtara to have a drink and apologize to me. What did I do wrong? Don't you know how much I've suffered lately, Reyn?" Luna pouted as she leaned into Reyn's arms."It's not that, my dear. You misunderstood. She should apologize to you. I'm just saying that making such a scene on a live broadcast could affect your reputation."Luna clung to Reyn and said coquettishly, "It doesn't matter, Reyn. I'm willing to do anything for you. Right now, I just want Selena to drink this and apologize. As long as she finishes the bottle, I'll forgive her.""As you wish. Drinking shouldn't be a problem for her." Reyn affectionately tapped Luna's nose before turning to me with cold indifference."Well? Hurry up and drink. Don't make my princess upset.""I can't drink right now, Reyn.""Why are you pretending this time? Have you got yet another excuse?" Luna snapped, her patience running thin. "Someone! Force her to drink it!"At her command, her Wolfkin guards grabbed the bottle

Chapter 8

"Reyn, my darling! Don't believe her! Have you forgotten how she abandoned you? Have you forgotten her deceit and schemes?" Luna cried out anxiously.The Witchwolf Veil surrounding Ivy darkened to pitch black, reaching its peak intensity. Those nearby instinctively backed away in fear."Haven't you noticed? Every time you try to ease things between you and Selena, it's your Princess Luna whispering in your ear, stirring up trouble! Let us go! Or you'll regret it for the rest of your life!""Reyn, don't—" Luna tried to interject.But Reyn cut her off. "Let them go!"His voice, heavy with the authority of a true ruler, silenced the crowd. The path cleared instantly.Ivy wasted no time. She rushed me back to the hospital. By then, I was on the verge of unconsciousness."Prepare for gastric lavage! Now!" Ivy's urgent cry echoed through the halls."It's too late, Ivy. The wine was poisoned." My voice was weak, barely a whisper. "I'm sorry. I should have listened to you. I should hav

Chapter 9

"Selena, I'm sorry. Let me hold you one last time, please?" Reyn pleaded with guilt in his eyes."Reyn, you don't have to apologize. This was my choice. I love you, and I have no regrets about anything I've done for you. As for a hug, let's not. You have a wife now."I refused Reyn's embrace, even though deep down, I longed to feel his warmth once more.But in the next moment, Reyn pulled me into his arms by force.His embrace was so warm, so familiar. Wrapped in it, I felt myself drifting away, as if I had fallen into a deep sleep.In my dreams, Reyn whispered to me that he still loved me.When I slowly opened my eyes again, I felt a surge of strength course through my body. Everything before me was pure white. Was I in heaven?"Selena! Thank goodness, you're awake!" Ivy exclaimed happily."Ivy? How are you in heaven too?" I asked, confused."Selena, open your eyes and look properly! We're in the hospital. You're alive. But…" Ivy hesitated, the worry in her eyes evident. "R
