Semua Bab Claimed but Never Marked : Bab 1 - Bab 10

The next morning, I told Sam, "Let's hit White Rose Pack together."His face tightened, but he smoothed it out fast. "Fine. We drop the gift and bounce."Yeah, he was freaking out I'd mess up Lily's big moment.I didn't care about her. I just needed to see my family one last time. After tomorrow, I was gone for good.At White Rose Pack, the place buzzed. Lily, draped in a ceremonial gown, soaked up the praise—pregnant with pup, flaunting it, and somehow up for Chief Healer.The pack elders beamed at her like she hung the freaking moon."Lily made the wolfsbane antidote. No question—she's the next Chief Healer.""Amazing! Usually takes the council labs forever to crack stuff like that.""They even slapped a certificate on her. Total prodigy!"I froze at the banquet hall entrance, feet glued to the floor.Not that long ago, I'd been busting my ass with my mentor, Master Healer David, building an antidote for wolfsbane.No way this was some random fluke.My gaze locked on the

Sam froze, disbelief tearing through him."Impossible! We were supposed to celebrate her birthday. How the hell could this happen?!"His Beta's mind-link came back, grim and heavy."The crew said she took the yacht out alone. She looked... real down. Then she disappeared for the whole night."Later, a tsunami smashed through that area. They found the boat—wrecked from the waves. But no sign—""Impossible!" Sam cut him off, his voice sharp and shaking. "I don't believe it! Why would she sail off alone?! Why didn't the crew call me?!"The Beta hesitated, then answered, voice low. "They tried... all night. But your phone was off."Sam's gaze snapped to his phone—screen dead, black.With shaking hands, he jammed the power button.As it booted up, his stare iced over and locked onto Lily."Did you turn it off?" he barked.Lily flinched, but covered it fast with fake calm."Why would I? Maybe it shut off by accident... or the battery died. You can't pin this on me."Her voice dr

After hanging up, I opened my phone and scrolled through the latest news about Sam and Lily.One clip showed Lily slipping out of her house, looking wrecked—no loyal wolves crowding around her anymore.Her exposed lies didn't just trash her; they dragged her whole family down with her.And Sam?The news caught him wandering the beach alone, like he was still searching for something he'd never find.The same wolves who once praised him for his loyalty now spat his name, calling him a cold-hearted fool who let his true love slip away.As for me?I just found it all absurd.I was never his true love.It took losing me forever for him to finally realize what he threw away."Teacher, what are you looking at?"John peeked over my shoulder, all curious and wide-eyed.John—my new student from Blue Moon Pack—barely ten, but already showing real promise.I clicked the page closed fast."Nothing. You still haven't finished today's homework. No slacking."He tilted his head, silver-

I shielded the pups, inching toward the door without a sound."I'm taking back what's mine. You screwed up. You should pay," I hissed.Lily's eyes burned pure hate. "You should've died! If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't be like this!"Before her words even faded, she flashed at me, claws gleaming like knives.I barely shifted my stance, but it wasn't enough. Three burning gashes tore across my shoulder.Blood gushed down my arm, soaking my sleeve. I raised my claws, blocking the next blow."Stop! Don't do this!"But Lily was already gone, slashing wild.The pups screamed."Don't hurt my teacher!" John howled.He shifted—pure white lightning—and launched straight at Lily's gut."John, no!"Shifting before eighteen could wreck his whole future—and he threw it all away for me.Tears burned my eyes.Before I could move, Lily locked onto him, grinning like a psycho. "Good. Come at me, brat. I'll rip your throat out first."She shot forward, claws raised to kill.My heart seiz

Sam opened his mouth, but I beat him to it."Lily was right. I don't need you anymore. Don't ever show up in my life again."His eyes were raw with pleading, like he'd trade anything just to stay close.Aron cut in, cool and razor-sharp."I don't know everything between you two, but maybe for once, you should actually listen to Any. You keep crying about your own feelings. Ever think about what she wants?"Sam froze, mouth working, but no sound came out.I stared him down, voice flat and final."Sam, don't make me see everything we had as a mistake. Or what—do you need me dead before you finally let go?""No!"He cut me off, voice cracking with pain."Any, I was wrong. As long as you're alive, as long as you don't disappear again... I'll leave. I swear."He lowered his head, voice rough."I'm sorry."Then he turned and walked away, a hollow shadow of who he used to be.Not long after, the news broke.Lily got nailed by the Silver Moon Guards—assaulting a packmate, hurtin
