Driven by his lust to mate with the sorceress, my destined Alpha tore away all I had and exiled me into a frozen hell.The day I returned to the Silver Moon tribe, I couldn't smell Karen's scent.Snow was falling heavily, and it was bone-chilling cold.He refused to join the welcome party."Lyra is holding a prophecy ceremony and needs concentration. She feels a disturbance. I must stay with her. Go see the elders by yourself."Through the wolf howl message, Karen's voice was ice-cold and heartless.I silently wrapped the worn animal hide tighter around me and dragged my heavy steps toward the tribal council hall.Even though I had only struggled at the Cliff of Sinful Wolves for one winter, this familiar territory felt strangely foreign to me.The day Karen locked the silver chain that suppressed my wolf nature around my neck, I looked into his merciless eyes and couldn't speak a single word.I couldn't howl out my innocence.I never touched that so-called Moon Soul Flower.But before

Though it was only one winter, I've been gone for too long.This den where Karen and I once shared countless secrets and tender moments now felt completely strange.The day Karen and I confirmed our mate bond, we hunted together and kept a deer bone as a memento.Now, the bone was gone.In its place were Lyra's complex and strange star charts.In the corner, the little nest I had woven from moonlight vines to soothe his wild wolf spirit was gone, replaced by a cold, smooth black obsidian platform that Lyra supposedly used for meditation.Even the air was filled with the bitter smell of soul-calming herbs that Lyra often used, which made my wolf spirit uncomfortable."Elara, you finally decided to come back?" Lyra walked out from the inner room, wearing the tribe's most luxurious mink fur, with a necklace of glowing wolf teeth around her neck—that was Karen's trophy, once promised to me as a coming-of-age gift."During your absence, I stayed here to help Karen with tribal matters. Your

Karen's expression remained hard, showing no emotion.I grew more anxious. I had already lowered myself to dust—why wasn't there any softening in his eyes?The hardest part was the tribe's Moon Festival.All werewolves gathered under the Moon Goddess Rock, sharing the sacrificial prey.Karen personally offered the fattest deer heart to Lyra, who accepted it with elegance and holiness as the prophet.I was seated at the very edge, only getting some ice-covered bones with almost no meat."Elara, try some of this moon dew wine. It's good for restoring your wolf spirit."Lyra walked over with a horn cup full of silver liquid. The wine smelled rich, but made me feel strangely uneasy.I hesitated, not taking it."Elara doesn't seem grateful? I specially prayed to the Moon Goddess for this blessing for you."Lyra looked hurt, and Karen's gaze immediately shot toward me like a knife blade."Elara! How dare you be so dismissive of Lyra's kindness?"His voice carried irresistible Alpha pressure.

After resting in the ice cellar for a few days, the tribe's resource officer came to inform me.Because I was "too weak to contribute to the tribe," I needed to provide extra personal items to exchange for daily food and herbs.I searched the entire ice cellar. Apart from a few weakly moonlit ice crystals I'd found by chance at the Cliff of Sinful Wolves, I had nothing else to contribute to the tribe."Can I... can I ask Alpha for help?"The resource officer gave me a contemptuous look: "Alpha doesn't have time for trivial matters from worthless wolves like you."I tried to contact Karen through the weak sensing of my wolf spirit, but it was like dropping a stone into the sea.The resource officer paced impatiently nearby."Your contribution must be submitted soon!""I'll... I'll figure something out."His suspicious gaze was fixed on me like needles, making me feel ashamed.Another day passed with still no response from Karen. The resource officer came again, his tone even more unfrie

I nodded silently, turning to find the resource officer to get my wolf tooth charm back."Where are you going now?" "My charm... it's still with the resource officer."I hadn't gone far when Lyra called out to me."There's a blizzard warning tonight, and you haven't fully recovered. Don't wander outside. Let Karen's guards retrieve it for you."My instinct was to refuse, but Karen's warning glance fell on me.I knew that if I rejected Lyra's "kindness," Karen's anger would come down on me again.But after the guards were gone for a long time, they returned with only an empty skin pouch.The resource officer said the charm had disappeared."How could it disappear? How is that possible? It's been less than half a day, why would it be gone? I clearly said I would find resources to trade for getting my things back!""Well... there are so many wolves in the tribe. Who knows if some cub carried it off, or if the wind blew it away? Look, I'll just write off what you owed before."I grabbed t

"Give me back my charm!""Give it back to you? Why should I? Your Alpha has already given it to me. He said this charm symbolizes loyalty, and a person who has defiled the tribe doesn't deserve to have it. Its best destiny is for me to purify it."Lyra nimbly avoided my outstretched claws, her eyes full of victorious smugness and mockery."That's my mother's blessing! Karen made it for me with his own hands! Give it back!"Everything else I could give up, could stop caring about, but not this!I lunged at her like a mad woman, but she always managed to dodge gracefully.After I missed again and crashed pathetically into the cold stone wall, she let out a beautiful but cruel laugh."Elara, once the brightest star of the Silver Moon tribe, how ironic. Now you're just a stray dog with its claws and fangs pulled out. What right do you have to return to the tribe?"As I struggled to get up, she elegantly stretched out her foot and pressed her jewel-encrusted boot tip onto my injured paw, gr

Surprisingly, I didn't feel any pain.The fall was strangely peaceful—no expected impact or tearing, but rather an unprecedented sense of release.Because from now on, I would never feel any pain again.In the final moment before my consciousness completely faded, I seemed to return to that snowy night when I first met Karen.I was a lost wolf cub, shivering in the blizzard. It was he who descended like a deity, wrapped me in his warm fur, and brought me back to the Silver Moon tribe.Back then, he was a young, spirited wolf prince with clear, determined eyes.He clumsily licked my wounds, again and again calling me by the temporary name he'd given me in his deep, gentle voice: "Little Snowball, don't be afraid, I'm here."When I finally woke up in his arms after battling a high fever, I saw those blue eyes that were always proud filled with moisture for the first time—the most sincere tears of the wolf tribe."Little Snowball, thank goodness you're finally awake. The Moon Goddess has

Karen didn't immediately leave the ice crevice. He just knelt there where I had fallen, motionless, letting the snow and ice cover him.As if my departure had also taken away all his vitality and energy.After a long time, he finally rose like a soulless statue.Karen didn't return to his warm den but went straight to the abandoned ice cellar where I had been kept.I had left very little in the ice cellar—a few worn animal hides, some dim ice crystals, and a wind chime made of small animal bones that I had secretly hidden in a crack in the stone.When I first came to the Silver Moon tribe as a wolf cub, Karen had made it for me using the bones of his first hunted snow rabbit, trying to make me happy.He said when the wind blew, the chime would make the whispers of the Moon Goddess, blessing me to grow up safely.He said this was his first promise to me as the future Alpha.He said he would protect me forever, just like he protected the tribe's totem."My destined mate, we will be toget

Karen stroked the stone walls of the ice cellar again and again, trying to find my last trace of scent.When he discovered the almost unrecognizable markings I had scratched on the wall in the most hidden corner of the ice cellar, his already numb heart was finally completely torn apart."Karen, it's so cold here. I miss the sunlight. Karen, my Alpha... do you remember when you used to call me your little snowball?""Karen, the nights at the Cliff of Sinful Wolves are so long. Those wolves, their eyes are so scary. Karen, I'm so afraid. Will you, will you ever come and take me home?""Karen, I didn't steal the Moon Soul Flower. I swear. Why, why won't you believe me just once?""Karen, Lyra says you'll never forgive me, she says I'm the tribe's shame, says my being alive is wasting the tribe's resources...""Karen, my wolf tooth charm is gone. That was the only thing you ever gave me, and it had my mother's blessing inside. Karen, am I truly left with nothing?""Karen, if I could sacri

The once high and mighty Alpha, whose words were law, now looked like a lost wolf cub, helpless and desperate.He stared at the bottomless ice crevice, his eyes full of endless regret and pain."You lying snake! You poisonous, venomous woman! You destroyed my Elara! You made her suffer false accusations! You drove her to destruction in despair!"He roared at the empty snow plain as if Lyra's spirit was still watching from some corner."I won't let your filthy soul tarnish Elara's name again! She was so pure, so beautiful. She shouldn't have endured any of this! You should be the one who died! And me! And all of us... blind fools!"Lyra's physical body was treated according to the tribe's harshest punishment—thrown into the ice cold spring, never to rest in peace.Karen, like a walking corpse, guarded the ice crevice day and night, letting the wind and snow attack him, not eating or drinking, as if wanting to freeze himself on this desperate frozen plain.The tribal elders were deeply w
