All Chapters of My Alpha Killed My Mom for His Lover: Chapter 1 - Chapter 8

When my mate and the Alpha of the Silvermoon pack, Ares Hamilton, was forced to choose between saving my mother or retrieving his lover's late mother's keepsake, he chose the keepsake without hesitation.By the time Ares finally learned that my mother, Celia Hale, had died, he wept and begged for my forgiveness. But by then, I was long gone.…To the left, beneath an overhang in the rock wall, Mom was cornered by three Rogues with her back jammed against the stone.Even worse, a boulder wedged in a crack above her head had been loosened by the Rogues' heavy blows with a steel pipe. Now, bits of stone were breaking off and tumbling down.One jagged chip grazed Mom's ear, opening a cut along her cheekbone.To the right, two Rogues hacked at an iron chest that held Margaret's keepsake.Lillian Parker gripped Ares' arm as her whole body shook. "That's… That's my mom's keepsake.""Ares! That rock above my mom's head is about to fall!" I shouted.I had no patience for Lillian's feeb

Ares' expression darkened. His voice turned low and cutting as he said accusingly, "Are you using Celia's condition as a way to compete with Lillian for my attention?"Didn't I have someone watching over her? The Rogues were already gone. How could anything have happened to her?"These past few days, Ares had been off at Hot Spring Valley with Lillian, comforting her after she'd been "frightened".He hadn't returned to the Silvermoon pack at all, so of course, he didn't know Mom hadn't survived long enough to see a pack healer.Lillian cast me a timid glance, her voice barely more than a whisper. "Evelyn, please don't curse your mother like that."My throat tightened, and all that came out was a ragged whimper as tears streamed down my face.Lillian spoke again in a soft and deliberate tone. "Didn't the pack healer just say last time that your mother was the strongest werewolf in the pack?"My gaze turned sharp, and I glared at her deceitfully innocent face.Strongest werewolf?

Lillian clapped a hand over her mouth, looking as if she'd been utterly scandalized. "Evelyn, how could you forge a burial certificate?"The moment the words left her lips, the other werewolves' expressions darkened. Their eyes on me turned sharper and more scrutinizing.The tension in Ares' shoulders eased, and a trace of relief crossed his face. He was just about to speak when a deep, commanding voice rang from the doorway. "Seven days ago, I was at that funeral myself. Are you saying I'm lying too?"The speaker was Vex Osborne, Alpha King of the Black Wolf pack.Moonlight streamed over his broad-shouldered frame, and his black cloak pooled on the floor. His stance was straight and unyielding, and his gaze was as cold as steel.He scanned the room before looking at me. For a brief moment, I thought I saw a flicker of emotion stir in their still depths."Alpha King!""Why are you here?"In an instant, Ares' imposing demeanor crumbled. He dropped to one knee, with the rest of t

In the days that followed, Vex took me to the Black Wolf pack. He told me about everything he'd been through over the years.After escaping the wasteland with enemies on his heels, he drifted from place to place, barely hanging on. Eventually, his grandfather sent people to search for him. They brought him back to the Black Wolf pack and raised him with great care.With his exceptional courage and ruthless determination, he eventually succeeded in claiming the Alpha King's throne."When I left back then, I swore I'd become strong enough to protect you all. But by the time I came back, it was already too late," he said.Vex stared into the bonfire outside the tent, speaking in a low and rough voice. He pressed his knuckles to his forehead, guilt weighing down his every word. "Evelyn, I failed to protect your mother."I shook my head, feeling my eyes burn with tears. "It wasn't your fault."…A week later, the Silvermoon pack sent the bond-breaking agreement, signed in Ares' crook
