(Grace Morgan's POV)When I arrived at Silvercliff International Airport in the Northern Territory, it was already past nine in the evening. Today is my birthday, a day I used to look forward to every year, but no longer do.I unlocked my phone, finding a flood of birthday messages from colleagues and friends. Nothing from Ethan. My mate. My husband. The Alpha King who had once promised to cherish me.My lips curled into a thin, self-deprecating smile as disappointment settled heavily in my chest. How ridiculous that it's been seven years since we mated and I'm still holding out these stupid hopes for Ethan.The drive to Silver Manor passed in a blur of city lights and shadows. When Martha Wilson opened the door just past ten, her shock was impossible to disguise."Madam Silver, you... why are you here?" Her eyes widened, hands fluttering nervously at her apron."Hello, Martha." I tried to smile, but it felt brittle on my lips.The large house felt unusually quiet. There w

(Jackson's POV)I stared at the resignation letter in my hands, still warm from Grace Morgan's touch. The crisp paper with its neat signature seemed to carry more weight than it should.As one of Alpha King Ethan Silver's primary Betas, I was among the few who truly understood the strained dynamic between our Luna and the Alpha King. Everyone in Ethan's inner circle knew his heart wasn't truly bound to Grace.Since their mating ceremony, he had treated her with cold indifference. He rarely returned to their shared den when she resided here in the Northern Territory.To bridge this growing distance, Grace had joined the Silvercliff medical technology enterprises, working within our pack's vast medical division. I remember how she had initially hoped for a position closer to Ethan's sphere—perhaps as a senior aide or leading healer directly under his command.Ethan had refused outright. Even when pack elders subtly nudged him toward including his mate in his inner circle, he remaine

(Dominic's POV)I watched Grace Morgan carefully as she sipped her tea across from me. Seven years had changed her profoundly. The brilliant, confident healer I'd known at Timber University had faded into this quiet, subdued woman before me.Her hands trembled slightly as she held the teacup. Not from weakness—Grace had never been weak—but from something deeper. A weariness that came from years of being diminished."It's been a while," I said, breaking the silence between us.She nodded, her emerald eyes meeting mine briefly before darting away. "Too long."The few times we'd crossed paths since her mating to Ethan Silver, I'd noticed the gradual erosion of her spirit. Each encounter showed less of the brilliant healer who had once outshined everyone at university, even me.If someone had told me back then that Grace Morgan would one day be described as "inferior" or "fallen behind," I would have laughed in their face. Yet here she sat, her confidence shattered, her brilliance di

(Grace's POV)The two colleagues beside me pressed themselves against the wall like frightened rabbits. Their eyes darted nervously toward Olivia Stone, who stood at the end of the hallway."Is that her?" Jamie Collins whispered, her voice barely audible.Cassidy Miller nodded quickly, her eyes wide with awe.I stood frozen, watching as Olivia spotted me then immediately averted her gaze with practiced indifference. Not even a hint of acknowledgment.She was surrounded by a small entourage of pack executives—Director Bennett, Director Winters, and several others—who hovered around her like courtiers attending royalty. Their faces showed nothing but adoration and respect."Look at that designer handbag," Cassidy whispered. "Must cost more than my monthly salary."They escorted Olivia into the elevator designated for senior pack members, a space I rarely occupied despite my technical status as Luna. The doors closed with a soft chime.My colleagues exhaled dramatically, their sho

(Gregory's POV)I stared at Grace Morgan in disbelief. The Luna of our pack had just refused a direct order from me, Beta Gregory Parker, one of Alpha King Ethan Silver's most trusted lieutenants.My face went cold with anger. Yes, she holds the title of Luna in terms of pack hierarchy, and I should bow down to her, but everyone knows her position is only a courtesy these days, and it's about to go out of status."Luna," I said, my voice sharp with contempt, "please adjust your pack attitude. Do you think this is your personal den?!"I expected her to cower or apologize. Instead, Grace calmly lifted her bag from beside her desk and met my gaze directly."If you're dissatisfied, Beta Parker," she replied evenly, "You can offer to fire me, but you know that even if I leave the medical department, I'm still the Luna of the pack and you need to honor me."Her response stunned me into momentary silence. Despite my proximity to the Alpha King and my trusted status within the Silverclif
