Semua Bab 100 Nights to Tame a Cursed Heart : Bab 1 - Bab 10

I knew now was the right time to end it all, to save myself from this damned hellhole. There was no point in staying in this one-sided marriage anymore. Three years of misery was more than enough."Use the rope. I'll take your place in the room," Leila said."Thank you so much, Leila." I immediately took the rope that Leila had prepared a few days earlier.I was the one who had asked for it, knowing Rhys would punish me after he found out I'd miscarried again. I climbed down and hobbled out, walking to the venue in my white dress with my bloody, open back showing.I dragged my feet toward the hall, down the dark path beside the pack's garden. The sound of echoing music, laughter, and glass clinking filled the air. I was sure all the Alphas, Betas, and other high-ranking wolves were there, and some of them must have recognized me—my dad had so many friends back in the day. I hoped that one of them would want to rescue me from this hell.After entering the hall from the unguarded side e

Summer's POV I woke up with a start from another nightmare, the same one that had haunted me for years, every single day. A nightmare where I woke up to find my father's blood-covered dead body."Where am I?" I got out of bed, looked around, and was very sure I wasn't in Rhys's place.The last thing I could recall was that strikingly handsome man with a scarred forehead, gray eyes, and a delightful mess of caramelized brown hair. He had promised to save me, and everything had faded to darkness.I headed to the door, trying to figure out how to get out of the room and find someone to tell me where I was. But I stopped when I saw my reflection in the mirror. Last night, I'd been wearing a white dress covered in blood, but now I was in a red silk nightgown. Someone must have redressed me, I thought.For a brief moment, I scrutinized my face and felt relieved to find all the bruises had totally gone. Since for the past two days, Rhys had made my face battered."Thanks, Moon Goddess," I

Luxian’s POVThe wedding celebration was over, the pack’s officials had finally dispersed, and the grand hall was quieting down. I caught sight of Summer slipping away toward the bar. I knew she was running from something—maybe from me, maybe from herself. I could feel it in the way her shoulders slumped, the way she moved like she was trying to outrun her own thoughts.When I found her at the bar, she was already swaying, her cheeks flushed from the liquor. She was ordering drinks strong enough to knock out a wolf twice her size, and it was clear she was trying to drown something deep inside. I wanted to leave her to it, to let her have her space, but the sight of her like that—vulnerable, reckless—stirred something in me I couldn’t ignore.“You’re too drunk,” I said, snatching the snifter from her hand before she could down another.“One more shot!” she pleaded, her voice thick with defiance and liquor.“No,” I snapped, sharper than I meant to. She was testing my patience, and I wa

Author's POVSummer returned to her room after breakfast, deciding to spend the entire day indoors. She had just settled into her favorite chair, enjoying the quiet, when suddenly a knock at the door startled her. The sound shattered the silence, and Summer held her breath for a moment."Who is it?" she asked, her voice slightly trembling."Lady, Alpha Luxian is waiting for you downstairs," replied the servant's voice from behind the door, polite yet firm.Summer let out a long sigh, feeling too lazy to move. She had just wanted to relax, but it seemed her plans were about to change. "Lady?" the servant pressed, as if unwilling to leave without a clear response."O-okay, tell him I'll be there soon," Summer finally said, her voice heavy.She rose from her chair with a sluggish motion, grabbing the nude-colored robe hanging behind the door. She slipped it on casually, then ran her fingers through her messy hair. Her eyes drifted to the mirror in the corner of the room, and without thin

(18+ scene) beware!"I think I can walk by myself," Summer said when Luxian offered to carry her upstairs after the check-up at the pack clinic."Don't be stubborn, Summer. I know you're in pain." Luxian's voice was cold, but his eyes looked sincere."I can do it," Summer insisted,Summer tried to ignore him, turning her head away to avoid eye contact. She didn't want to be swayed by his kindness -or rather, what she believed was him pretending to be kind. Because she knew he wasn't.She pushing herself up from the clinic bed, leaning on the edge of the bed to stand steadily.She taking a deep breath as she walked, putting most of her weight on her good leg while only letting the heel of her injured foot touch the ground. Truthfully, she was in a lot of pain right now, but she refused to let Luxian see it. If she showed weakness now, it'd be humiliating -since she'd already turned down his help. But still, Luxian followed her patiently, arms crossed over his chest. Every now and then
