Chapter 1

"There's not much time left. You should spend it saying goodbye to your loved ones."The healer's voice was gentle, almost sympathetic—But to me, it landed like a stone crashing through glass.I had guessed this outcome.But hearing my death sentence spoken aloud… it shattered me all the same.I was only twenty-eight.I had clawed my way through life to survive. I had fought so hard.And just when hope finally arrived—just when I found the rare herb that could save me—My mate, Gary, gave it away.To Jane.Who merely felt uncomfortable.My wolf was numb. Hollow. I wandered into Jane's infirmary room, where warmth and concern wrapped around her like a halo.My parents were there.Gary was by her side.My little pup, Jack, was laughing by her feet.When I walked in, Gary was helping Jane drink water.He looked up, saw me, and quickly set the cup down."What did the healer say?" he asked, his voice flat.He didn't meet my eyes.His voice trembled with guilt, yet he dared to offer a weak

I had barely reached the doorway when a wave of searing pain overwhelmed me, nearly knocking me unconscious.A relentless storm crashed through my body. I stumbled, clutching the wall for support.My wolf thrashed inside me, howling in unbearable agony.I wanted to soothe her, to hold her—but the pain had its claws sunk deep.Desperate, I dug through my bag, searching for the special herb—the only one that could ease this suffering.Just when I thought I wouldn't make it, my fingers finally closed around it.I swallowed several in one go, choking them down.Only then did the pain begin to subside—slightly.From inside Jane's infirmary room, I could still hear my mother's voice.Scolding me. Blaming me. Dismissing me.She said I was cold and heartless—that I didn't care about Jane.But I knew the truth.Jane always conveniently felt "unwell" whenever I was around. It was her favorite trick.A sure way to summon attention.But the truth was—she never needed tricks.She had it all.My par

Gary was violent—too fast.My leg slammed against the doorframe with a sickening thud. Pain shot up my spine like fire.But he didn't stop.He didn't even pause.He dragged me down the hallway like I was nothing—like I wasn't even human.When we reached the grand hall, he threw me to the floor like a discarded rag doll. Pain exploded in every joint.I tried to rise.But before I could even sit up, my mother stormed over.Her hand struck my face. Hard.Then again.And again.The metallic taste of blood filled my mouth.Somewhere nearby, I saw Jane tucked into my father's arms, crying like a delicate flower.My mother towered above me, her eyes wild with fury and disgust.No love.No concern.Only hatred.My wolf had no strength left. She lay inside me, silent and numb.My mother raised her hand again.But this time—something inside me broke.I vomited blood.A hot, red stream splattered across her hands and face. She froze, stunned.For the first time, her palm didn't fall like a slap—i

Gary froze.My words landed like a slap—not loud, but final.He stared at me, dumbfounded. I saw the confusion in his eyes. Fear, even.Like he couldn't recognize me anymore.Like I had become a stranger.Maybe I had.Maybe I was nothing more than a weightless sheet of paper now—ready to be carried away by the wind, out of his reach forever.Slowly, my wolf pushed herself up, legs trembling.I leaned against the wall, wiped the blood from my face with the back of my hand, and looked at my mother."He never claimed me," I said calmly.She blinked. "You... weren't marked?"Gary's face turned ashen."We were busy. Things kept coming up," he muttered.My mother clapped her hands in delight. "Perfect! That saves us the trouble."My pup, Jack, looked at me nervously."So... does that mean Aunt Jane is going to be my new mommy?"I smiled at him—gently.My wolf was calm now. She wouldn't be hurt again."Yes," I said softly. "Are you happy?"His face lit up."Yay! That's awesome! Auntie Jane's

Chapter 5

When Gary returned to the den, Jane was still in a coma.He stayed by her side all night, worried, until dawn broke and the storm finally subsided.After Jane had fully rested, she opened her eyes, blinking in surprise. "Gary, when did you come back?""I got back last night," Gary replied with a gentle smile. "The clan's healer checked on you and said your feel uncomfortable—too much emotional distress. He told me not to wake you."" How are you feeling now?"Jane smiled sweetly. "Much better after the nap."She looked around, feigning concern. "Where's my sister? Didn't she come with you?"Only then did Gary remember how he had abandoned Nadia on the roadside the night before.Thinking of the storm, the wind, the hail… a twinge of regret pierced his heart.But then again, Nadia had always been tough and independent—surely, she could call a cab. Why should he worry?What he didn't know was that Nadia had left her phone downstairs in the basement."She's having surgery in a week," Gary

Chapter 6

Unbeknownst to Gary, Nadia's mother Mrs.Black had arranged a cruel punishment—she'd sent all the staff away, leaving Nadia completely alone.Gary knocked again, his voice softening. "Nadia… I know we've wronged you.""I've had time to think. You only lashed out at Jane because none of us cared enough about you.""I'll talk to Mr.Black and Mrs.Black. I'll ask them to be more patient.""And Jack... he told me yesterday he still likes you. He wants you to be his mom again. He misses your bedtime stories."He kept talking, voice hoarse, until his mouth ran dry. Still, the door stayed shut.His wolf stirred restlessly. Sharp claws emerged as frustration grew in his eyes.Just then, Beta Bill, standing nearby, nervously asked, "Sir… are you sure your mate is inside?"Gary swallowed. "Of course she is. She always listens to me. I told her to come home—she'd never disobey.""And she texted me yesterday, said she was doing fine, told me not to worry."But even as he said the words, dread twiste

Chapter 7

Mr.Black looked at her in surprise. "You've forgiven her?"Mrs. Black let out a long sigh."my mate … have we been too harsh on Nadia?""She's changed now. She's quieter. More obedient. Maybe… it's time we tried to truly love her. Teach her gently."Mr. Black nodded. "I'll follow your lead."Truth be told, he'd never truly hated Nadia.Her face mirrored his—she was eighty percent a reflection of his younger self.Seeing her felt like looking into a time-worn mirror.If she hadn't disappointed them again and again, he would never have turned cold, never have let her be punished so harshly.Now, the two of them sat together, quietly discussing how they might make things right.But what they didn't know…Was that at that very moment—Nadia's body was already sealed inside the sleep capsule.Gary entered the Black clan den with a sense of urgency. He combed through every corner of the house—but there was no sign of Nadia.No scent.No trace.No heartbeat.As a alpha,he has sharp sense—smel

Chapter 8

At the Brown's den, Gary sat motionless, his hand trembling as he watched the video again and again.Jane's face—always so soft, so innocent—twisted into something grotesque and smug on screen.He had never seen this side of her before.Had he been blind all along?Across from him, Mr. and Mrs. Black stared at the screen in silence. Both of their eyes were bloodshot. Mrs. Black's voice trembled."…We were wrong about Nadia," she whispered. "Go. Go find her. I need to tell her—it was my fault. All of it."Mr. Black choked up. "I'll call her doctor. She must be hiding with him. She's angry with us, that's why she lied. That has to be it."Gary nodded eagerly. "Yes. She texted me just yesterday. Said she was fine. There's no way she died three days ago…"But even as he said it, a terrible possibility settled over them.Upstairs, footsteps echoed down the stairs.Jane descended slowly, supported by the housemaid. She hadn't seen the news yet. Her expression was one of perfect concern."I h
