On the day of my first shift, my Alpha triplet adoptive brothers weren't by my side for the first time ever, because their long-lost birth sister Scarlett had returned.They even told me to get out and never come back for his birth sister's sake. To fight again Rogue wolves，The Alpha King had gathered the most elite warriors from each pack for a Beta Wolf Enhancement Program—a secret project that would last ten years, with no contact with the outside world.The day I volunteered for this research project happened to be the anniversary of my parents' death.My parents had once been the pack's most outstanding warriors, but fifteen years ago, they died in battle protecting my brothers' parents—the former Alpha and Luna—during a rogue wolf attack.From that day on, my brothers adopted me, saying I would be their little sister forever.Before, my three foster brothers would always stay by my side on this day. But since their birth sister returned, we never mourned my parents together agai

After hanging up the phone, the wind stung my eyes.I rushed to pick up my brothers.But when I drove up to meet them, Ethan forced me out of the car. "Scarlett decided she wants to go too, and she doesn't want to be in the same car with you. Find your own way there."Before I could respond, I caught Mason and Hunter's cold stares. I finally agreed, and the four of them drove off, leaving me standing alone.The cemetery was far, and it was nearly impossible to arrange transportation on such short notice. I had no choice but to shift into my wolf form and race along the winding mountain road toward the Pack's Heroes Memorial.My wolf form was weaker than most because on the night of my first shift, Hunter had abandoned me in a forest full of rogue wolves. The injuries I sustained during that fight had permanently weakened my wolf.By the time I arrived at our destination, panting and exhausted, two hours had passed. Before I even reached them, I could hear Scarlett's whining voice: "Why

After a moment of stunned silence, Mason's brows furrowed.He seemed uncertain about my quick agreement and wavered slightly:"Scarlett just came home, so she might not accept you right away. You should be more understanding with her.""I know this gem is your parents' precious heirloom. Once Scarlett recovers, we'll definitely find a way to compensate you."I looked at them earnestly: "It's fine. I'll agree to whatever she wants. I know she doesn't like me, and I can move out so she won't have to see me anymore.""Her health is poor, and she needs care.""Besides, I haven't been home much these past few years, so moving out makes sense...""Tch."The abrupt sound made my voice halt.Mason's expression darkened. He probably thought I was just putting on an act.Scarlett called Mason's name from a short distance away, asking him to come tell her a fairy tale. He immediately went to her, leaving me standing alone.I prepared to leave, my throat aching as I spoke: "I'm going now."No one

I turned around.And saw Mason standing behind me, though I had no idea when he'd gotten there.His expression was ice-cold, his gaze fixed on my newly packed suitcase.Ethan leaned against the doorway of my bedroom, also looking at me with an equally frigid expression.Scarlett, who had followed them in, hid behind Hunter, secretly eyeing my luggage.Being young, she couldn't hide the anticipation gleaming in her eyes.For a moment, I considered telling the truth.But then I remembered Mason's impatient words: "These things, no need to tell us."Suddenly, I didn't dare speak up anymore.This way, when I left, I could at least lie to myself.They just didn't know. It wasn't that they didn't care.My hand slipped into my coat pocket, my knuckles aching from how tightly I clenched them.I pretended to be casual: "Just packing my things. As agreed, I'm moving out."Mason's expression softened slightly.But he quickly spoke in a stern voice: "Can't you just get along with Scarlett? You're

I silently pulled myself up from the ground, enduring the stabbing pain in my leg as I limped away one step at a time.I hadn't gone far when I heard Hunter speaking tenderly to Scarlett behind me, "Scarlett, don't come outside. Stay in the house where it's safe.""But Olivia left," Scarlett replied, her voice carrying a calculated tremor. "Is it because I came back and stole the brothers' affection? That's why she's leaving so determinedly? But I finally reunited with my brothers after so long... why can't she just let me have this?""It's not your fault," Hunter responded immediately. "Olivia is just too petty.""Then can we decorate the house in red? That's my favorite color," Scarlett asked sweetly."Of course we can," Ethan and Mason called out in unison as they followed Hunter outside."And those paintings on the walls... can I replace all those things?" Scarlett pressed, her voice growing bolder. "I hate those things so much. They're ugly and tasteless. "All three brothers agre

For as long as I could remember, my parents were rarely home. They were the pack's elite warriors, always protecting the former Alpha family, accompanying the former Alpha and his mate on various conquest missions.They would often be gone for a year or more at a time.So I grew up alongside the Alpha's triplet sons.Afraid I'd be lonely, Hunter would risk being scolded by the former Alpha to skip classes and keep me company. Knowing I was interested in healing arts, Ethan would venture deep into the Mist Forest to find rare healing herbs for my experiments.When other pack children bullied me because my parents weren't around, Mason would stand in front of me as my shield, fighting off all those kids.They would gather around me and promise, "We're family. We'll always spoil you like real brothers."For many years when my parents were absent, they were both brothers and father figures as I grew up.Until I was twelve, when my parents told stories about the snowfall in their homeland.

Ethan coldly said, "I know you're worried Scarlett's return will take away our love and attention from you, but you can't question her identity like this."Hunter added, "Scarlett has suffered so much while lost outside our pack, and now you're slandering her? I really misjudged you, Olivia."After that, things were never peaceful between us again.A month ago, Scarlett used her old tricks again and destroyed a new gem I had just developed.I chased her to the staircase, losing control and slapping her.She deliberately fell down the stairs. When I tried to grab her, I fell down with her.My arm was injured, and I struggled to get up.Before I could say a word, Mason slapped me across the face for the first time.The usually gentle and quiet Ethan exploded in anger:"Olivia, did you do this on purpose? You know perfectly well Scarlett can't shift, yet you deliberately hurt her. If you can't live with us, then get out!"They took Scarlett to the hospital, abandoning me despite my injuri

Ethan helped Scarlett to her feet, his face showing annoyance.More and more people gathered around.Derek rushed over when he heard the commotion.He looked at me, then at the nearby incinerator, and quickly understood what had happened from my expression."She destroyed your parents' mementos!" he exclaimed.Hunter's angry expression froze instantly. He walked over and looked at me.After a long moment, he frowned: "That's impossible. Scarlett wouldn't...""Let's go," I interrupted him, calmly looking toward Derek.How strange.I should have been furious. I should have lost control like countless times before, yelling at Scarlett or even getting physical.Then, amid the brothers' bias and indulgence toward Scarlett, I should have lost control and had a huge argument with them.But at this moment, I just wanted to leave.I had been arguing with them for four years.In those four years, countless times, the result was always the same.Now, I didn't want to argue anymore.After all, in

My hand, reaching for food, suddenly froze.Hunter peeled several shrimp for me and placed them in my bowl.His voice was gentle: "We promised you long ago."But we've been busy with pack affairs, as you know."I lowered my head, tears almost falling.After all these years, they still remembered.I spoke in a muffled voice: "Our military camp is visiting another pack this Saturday. I probably won't make it back in time."Hunter continued peeling shrimp for me, the oil staining his fair, slender fingers.He replied: "Then we'll go before Saturday and come back early. It won't affect your work."I wanted to refuse, but the words stuck in my throat.In the end, it seemed there was still a bit of hope I couldn't dispel.After all these years,I could never forget that promise. It wasn't that I really wanted to go to the Northern territories or see snow. That would only remind me of my parents and how alone I was now.I just missed the happy life we once had together with the Paine brothers

The day I officially entered the secure research institute was my third day after landing.The project director had lunch with us.He spoke to us seriously:"This is a challenging mission. You won't see your family for ten, maybe even twenty years. If there's anyone you can't bear to leave behind, make one last phone call."Around me, people began taking out their phones and dialing, occasionally followed by suppressed sobs.I sat in silence for a long time.Finally, I made the call.But it was Scarlett's cheerful voice that answered: "Sister, do you need something?"My voice was hoarse: "Where are they?"Scarlett chirped: "You mean the brothers?"They asked me to answer the phone. They're helping me prepare skiing equipment. If you have something to say, you can tell me."I heard Mason's raised voice in the background: "Turn off your phone and come here."Scarlett's voice carried a smile.Pretending to be innocent, yet unable to hide her provocation and smugness due to her young age.
