Charlotte's POV"Come here." Layson Romanov's voice was low and firm, leaving no room for refusal.In the yacht's luxury suite, the air felt stiflingly hot. Layson's loosened collar looked messy. He had left a few buttons of his shirt undone, revealing his firm chest. His usually deep and calm green eyes now burned with scorching desire.In my previous life, he had tempted me in this same way.Right now, I simply stood by and watched this man who was normally so noble and untouchable.I once believed I could become his greatest love. I paid no heed to the fact that he was my father's friend or that he was 20 years older than me, or even the mockery from my family. I flung myself into becoming his so-called "antidote".I loved him with all my heart, yet all I got in return was a tragic end—I died along with my unborn baby. Even love became a luxury I could no longer afford.Right before I died, I found out that Layson had secretly been in love with his personal secretary, Grace P

Charlotte's POVOver the next few days, I went through all the formalities to leave the pack and head for Silvermoon City.I left early and came back late every day just to avoid running into Layson. No matter how hard I tried, I still witnessed his clear fondness for Grace.She loved swimming, so he had all the cherry blossom trees we planted together removed to build a private pool for her. When Grace felt unwell, he canceled an important meeting and stayed with her throughout the night. If she casually mentioned liking a piece of jewelry, it would appear on her dressing table the very next day.All the gentleness, care, and appreciation he once showed me, he now devoted to Grace without holding back.I no longer clung to him or threw tantrums the way I used to. I quietly watched it all, like an outsider.While waiting for the paperwork to go through, I began packing my belongings.First, I organized my luggage. Then, I gathered the sketches I had drawn of Layson, the love let

Charlotte's POVI didn't take Layson's words to heart that day.I simply waited quietly for my documents to be approved so I could leave.The next day, Grace behaved very differently. She enthusiastically insisted on taking me to the werewolf pack's marketplace.However, the moment we boarded the carriage, I caught a whiff of something strange. A wave of dizziness rushed through me, and then everything went black.When I opened my eyes again, icy winds whipped around me, and waves crashed against the jagged rocks nearby. My wrists were chained to a wooden stake. Not far away, Grace was also chained up. I struggled to ask her why, but my mouth was gagged, and all I could produce were muffled whimpers.Grace seemed to understand my question and smirked coldly."Charlotte, I don't want to do this to you. But you've always been a threat. I heard what Layson said that day, and it unsettled me. I need to prove who matters more to him."I never imagined Grace would go to such extremes.Before

Charlotte's POVThe moment my fingers touched my cheek, tears started rolling down.In my last life, even if I caused big trouble, Layson would just pat my head and pretend to scold me. But now, he had actually slapped me.My werewolf blood gave me faster regenerative powers than most humans, but it didn't ease the pain on my face. This wasn't just physical pain—it felt like a blade striking at my soul.That night, when I went back to my room, I got word that my documents were ready. I called my father. "Dad, could you book me a train ticket for tomorrow night? I want to leave as soon as possible.""It's already arranged. Once you arrive, I'll pick you up."After I hung up, I packed all my luggage. Then, I took the last photo I had of Layson and me, the one I kept inside a locket, and burned it. The flame licked across the photo, warping our once-happy faces until they turned to ash. My heart felt like it was turning to dust right along with it.When morning came, Grace caught m

Layson's POVI was sitting in Charlotte's room, staring at the empty space around me. I never expected to find her room completely cleared out. I also never thought she'd have the nerve to block me.For all these years, no matter how much she sulked, how much she cried, or how often she got mad at me, she had never truly cut me off. Now, she not only blocked me, but she even turned off her phone. It was like she was trying to vanish from my life for good.I clenched my teeth, my fingers trembling."Fine, Charlotte. Are you playing hard to get and trying to make me chase after you? That won't work on me," I said out loud.I took a deep breath to force myself to stay calm and called my personal guard. "Find out where Charlotte ran off to! Once you do, keep an eye on her and make sure she's safe."No matter how impulsive or infuriating she was, she was still the daughter of my best friend. I couldn't just leave her on her own.But I knew she couldn't have gone too far. She loved me
