Semua Bab Your Death Was Faked, but I'm Gone for Good: Bab 1 - Bab 7

I had accidentally uncovered a secret. My mate, Theo Burke, was said to have died in battle. But in reality, he had assumed the identity of his twin older brother, Liam Burke. Since then, he had been spending his nights breeding with Mia Parker, Liam's mate.…I had just returned from the forest when I noticed that Agatha Rune, a witch, had come to the Thornroot pack. I hid in a corner and overheard an exchange."You'll need to prepare more of the potion that masks my scent. I can't let Olivia find out that I'm actually Theo."He was actually Theo? What did that mean?I trembled as I stared wide-eyed at the werewolf in front of me—he had the exact same face as Theo.Theo and Liam were identical twins, but I would never mistake one for the other. I knew that the one I loved was Theo, who smelled of cedar.Half a year ago, Theo and Liam had been ambushed by a rival pack. Since that day, I lost him for good. All I wanted was to join Theo in heaven, but I couldn't possibly leave o

I stayed with Jax as he spent the night at the hospital. Early the next morning, Theo rushed over, looking rather anxious."How are you, little pup?" he asked.He'd brought a pile of snacks and toys with him. In the past, it would've been very easy to placate Jax. However, after what happened yesterday, he wasn't going to be won over by these things."I'm doing just fine, Uncle Liam."It was Theo's first time hearing Jax address him as such, and it seemed to shock him. It took him a while before he finally snapped back to his senses.He turned to me and said, "Why don't you get some rest, Olivia? You must be tired. I'll stay with Jax."I didn't even bother to look at Theo.For the past six months, he'd looked out for Jax and me. All along, I was touched that my mate's older brother would do so much for us. But as it was, he was simply doing what he should've done in the first place!Again, this was Theo's first time receiving such a reaction from us, and it infuriated him somew

The next day was the most important day of Theo's life—it was the day of his ascension as the Alpha.He had lived in Liam's shadows ever since he was a child, with Liam outshining him. All along, he thought he could never become the Alpha.Who would've thought that the Moon Goddess would give him a chance now?He assumed the deceased Liam's identity, created an heir with a prestigious bloodline, and was now receiving the position of Alpha.Everything was coming along smoothly, save for the sole victims of his plan."Check on Olivia and Jax. See if they've reached the villa safely," Theo instructed his Beta as he adjusted his suit. After a brief pause, he added, "Bring some food and medicine with you."As he looked at his reflection in the mirror, he let out an exhale. He thought he'd covered all his bases perfectly, including me.However, just as the ascension ceremony was about to begin, Theo's Beta hurried over to him and whispered in his ear."What? That's impossible!"St

Theo's eyes lit up when he saw Jax. He paid no mind to his bleeding wounds and stumbled over to try to hug Jax. However, Jax deftly avoided him, leaving him to tumble onto the floor."Are you the one disturbing my mother?" Jax questioned.Theo looked stupefied. "What are you talking about, little pup? I'm your father!"Jax's expression remained neutral as he said, "Please watch what you say. My father is dead. He died when he allowed someone else to set a fire and hurt my mother."Theo's eyes wavered in panic. He helplessly tried to explain himself."That was my mistake, but I never ever thought about harming you guys! Liam died in battle because he was protecting me. I only took care of Mia because I felt it was my duty to repay him!"He took care of Mia out of duty and a debt of gratitude, huh?As always, he was still coming up with wonderful-sounding reasons to excuse his depraved actions.I couldn't be bothered to argue with him. I took Jax's hand and said, "Well, feel free
