My mate secretly gave the morphing inhibitor I had prepared for our daughter to his first love's daughter. Without the morphing inhibitor, our pup died.At ten in the evening, I heard Liam's footsteps at the door. My enhanced wolf senses picked up his scent—a mix of the healing center's sterile smell and something distinctly feminine that made my stomach turn.My wolf Bella bristled inside me, no longer recognizing the mate she had once adored.I sat quietly in the dark living room, holding Isla's white porcelain urn close to my chest. The moonlight streaming through the windows cast long shadows across the floor. I must have been sitting there for hours, but the pain in my heart far outweighed any physical discomfort.The key turned in the lock. I heard him humming—actually humming—as he entered.When he closed the door and changed his shoes, I remained motionless in the darkness. Let him feel a fraction of the uncertainty I'd felt these past weeks."Olivia!" His sharp voice cut throu

The next morning, I waited punctually at the entrance of the Joint Pack Council. The morning air was crisp with the scent of autumn, but I barely felt the cold.After nine o'clock passed, when Liam still hadn't appeared, I decisively called him.His agitated voice immediately burst through the phone:"Olivia! Is throwing tantrums all you know how to do? Are you deliberately trying to make things difficult for me?"I kept my voice steady, though my wolf Bella was snarling inside:"Come sign the severance statement, Liam.""I don't have time for your games! I have surgeries scheduled—""Then make time," I cut him off. "Because our mate bond is already breaking."There was a moment of shocked silence on the other end."What nonsense are you—" "Can't you feel it, Liam? The cracks in our bond?"I closed my eyes and focused on the mate bond that had once been so precious to me. With all the strength of my grief and anger I uttered the words, "I, Olivia Wood, reject Liam's continuation as my

I didn't return to the house I had shared with Liam.All of Isla's belongings had been cremated by me along with her body. There would have been very little left of my own possessions after I bought that inhibitor, except for some clothes along with pictures of Liam and I, which I burned.The tumor was progressing faster than expected. My balance was getting worse each day, and the headaches would come in waves so intense they left me gasping.Just forcing my wolf Bella's power to disconnect the mate bond again made my head hurt even more now.The reason I was so anxious to push Liam to dissolve his partnership and sign a separation agreement as soon as possible was because I needed to make sure I was no longer connected to Liam in any way - even in death.That day, clutching Isla's urn, I returned to Stormpack territory.My parents had always respected my decisions.Just like when they initially disapproved of Liam - a mere omega healer from a low-ranking family - but eventually gave

Later that night, I took Isla's spirit and followed Liam back to our former "home," which obviously wasn't ours anymore. Upon entering, we saw Natalie and Anna greeting Liam at the door. The house was full of their belongings and it was obvious that the mother and daughter had moved in.Seeing them encroach into our space made me incredibly glad that I emptied all of my and my daughter's belongings before I left, otherwise at this moment I'm sure I'd be shaking in my soul with anger.But more painful was watching Isla's face fall as she saw another pup playing in what used to be her room.The sight triggered memories of how this all began...Back when we were still together, I first met Natalie when Isla started her pup training.She had always been a lively, cheerful child, but after joining the advanced training group, she became increasingly withdrawn.At first, I thought it was just a natural change as she grew older.Until one evening, while helping her bathe, I discovered dark br

Thinking about all this, I'm sure if I had a real body, I'd be beating the wolf's teeth out of this pair of dogs right now. My soul trembled with anger.That's when a small, slender hand took hold of my trembling ghost.Looking down, I saw Isla's eyes rimmed with red as she fought back tears."Mama, does Papa not want me anymore?"At the dinner table, Natalie covered her mouth delicately, bringing us up with false casualness:"By the way Liam, now that you're separated, when are you bringing Isla home?"She flashed a gentle smile:"We're so grateful you've given us shelter here. You're always so busy with healing, I could help look after Isla—she and Anna could be playmates!"Liam startled, as if just remembering he had a daughter.I held my heartbroken Isla close, unable to suppress a bitter laugh.He had been so adamant about claiming guardianship.Yet a week had passed since his three-day ultimatum, and he'd completely forgotten about Isla's existence!If he had actually gained cust

The next day, Liam's usually steady healer's hands trembled as he worked. His wolf was restless beneath his skin, making him drop two vials of precious healing elixir. The sharp scent of broken glass and wasted medicine filled the air, drawing concerned looks from other healers.I watched coldly from the spirit realm, my ghostly form flickering with satisfaction at his distress. How fitting it would be if he accidentally sliced open his own worthless heart with those shaking claws.Isla stayed close to my side now, her small spirit no longer excitedly circling the father who had betrayed us. She could sense the truth now - that we had never truly been his pack.When the lunch hour finally came, signaled by the distant howls of the pack's timekeepers, Liam hesitated before seeking out John again. His shoulders were hunched, his usual confident stride replaced by an omega's nervous shuffle."John," he called out, voice uncertain. "About my daughter's transfer... do you know which treatme

Hearing these harsh words about their father, Isla finally broke her long silence:"Mama," she whispered, her ethereal voice trembling. "Papa didn't avoid me because he was busy healing... it was because he wanted to be with Anna?"Her small spirit form flickered with distress."Was I really that disappointing... to make Papa hate me so much?" Tears gathered in her spectral eyes. "Even though I trained so hard... even though I tried to make him proud..."Even as a spirit, she was still just a young pup. Learning that her father, whom she had idolized, had chosen to comfort her former bully instead of visiting her during her transformation crisis... it was crushing her tender heart.I cupped her translucent face in my hands, my maternal instincts burning as strong in death as in life."Isla, my precious pup," I said fiercely. "You are the most wonderful young wolf in all the packs. The Moon Goddess herself blessed us with you.""Your father was blind and foolish. He never deserved to be

"No... no, this can't be true!" Liam's anguished howl echoed through the United Council's marble halls. He clutched the death certificates so hard they crumpled in his trembling hands.The Council guards immediately turned their golden ceremonial blades toward him, their eyes flashing in warning. "Silence, omega! This is sacred ground!"My father's lip curled in disgust as he watched Liam's breakdown. "Look at you now, such a showy omega. Where was all this emotion when my daughter and granddaughter needed you?"Liam barely heard him, his wolf thrashing beneath his skin as the truth finally shattered his carefully constructed world. He began shifting uncontrollably, patches of fur rippling across his skin as he lost control."Sir," one of the guards warned, pressing his blade closer. "Control yourself or be removed."Natalie rushed forward, trying to calm him. "Liam, please! Think of your position - you're making a scene!"But for once, her touch didn't soothe him. Instead, it felt lik

Blood dripped from Liam's silver knife as he knelt before our graves. The moonlight cast harsh shadows across his face, highlighting the madness in his eyes."Isla... Olivia..." he whispered. "I'm so sorry..."The knife trembled in his grip. His healer's hands, now stained with Natalie and Anna's blood, seemed to hesitate at taking his own life.I watched from the spirit realm, holding Isla close. We had seen everything - his rampage, his murder of Natalie, his cruel punishment of Anna."Even his revenge was selfish," I murmured to Isla. "He didn't do it for us. He did it because his pride was wounded."Isla nodded solemnly. The innocent pup who had once adored her father was gone, replaced by a spirit who understood too much.As Liam raised the knife to his throat, a brilliant light suddenly flooded the cemetery. The Moon Goddess herself appeared, her form too beautiful and terrible to describe.Her voice rang with ancient power: "Liam, former healer of Thornpack, your actions have to
