"Have you made up your mind, Sharon Ulrich? As long as the version of you in this world dies, you will be able to go home," the Moon Goddess' gentle voice whispered in my ear.Nearby, I saw Leia Harton surrounded by admirers, looking like the moon among stars. She was wearing the ceremonial gown meant only for the Luna. Standing next to her was Samson Holt, with his arm around her as he introduced her to the honored guests.He looked at her with a tenderness I had never seen before.I was the only one sitting all alone in the corner.I nodded and muttered in a low voice, "I've decided. There's nothing in this world worth holding onto anymore."Three years ago, a car accident brought me into this world of werewolves.The Moon Goddess told me that if I could win over the Alpha, Samson, and make him truly fall in love with me, I could return to my original world.To reunite with my family as soon as possible, I studied everything about Samson—his likes and dislikes—and shamelessl

A few days later, I was discharged from the infirmary. Samson came to pick me up.The moment I opened the passenger-side door, I froze. Leia was already sitting there.She gave me a saccharine smile. "Sorry about this. I get carsick easily, so Samson let me sit up front. But if it bothers you, I can move to the back. It'll just make me a little uncomfortable, that's all."Before I could say anything, Samson reached over and gently took her hand, stopping her. "Your body's still weak. You should just sit here. Sharon wouldn't mind."I said nothing. I simply turned away from what used to be my seat and opened the back passenger door instead.The backseat was piled high with Leia's makeup bags and snacks. Even the seat covers had been swapped out with those of her favorite cartoon lamb design.All that was left for me was a tiny corner to squeeze into.She turned around and apologized in embarrassment. "Oh no, I went shopping with Samson and bought too much. The trunk couldn't fit

When I opened my eyes again, the first thing I saw was my mom, crying so hard her face was soaked in tears."Sharon, you're finally back! You don't know how much I've missed you."My dad was right beside her, trying hard to hold back his own tears. "You're home, and that's all that matters. Look at you, you've lost so much weight… You must've gone through hell out there."The warmth I hadn't felt in so long hit me all at once. My nose tingled, and years of bottled-up pain came pouring out in a flood.I threw my arms around them both and sobbed into their shoulders. They didn't say anything and just kept patting my back gently as if to tell me it was over now.I was finally home.…In the days that followed, my parents did everything they could to help me recover. They bought me all kinds of tonics and supplements, and cooked my favorite meals every day.Two weeks later, I could finally walk again.That day, the sun was warm and bright, so I went out into the garden to admire t

I don't know what happened to Samson after that, and honestly, I couldn't care less.I thought after the last time, he'd finally give up. But I had still underestimated how shameless he could be.He actually followed me all the way to my office.That day, when I got off work, I saw him standing by the entrance, holding a cake and a bouquet."Happy birthday, Sharon," he greeted with a soft smile.I walked right past him as if he were invisible.He grabbed my arm. "Wait, Sharon! I'm not here to beg you to come back. I just… wanted to celebrate your birthday."I stopped, and he continued, "I know I'll be leaving soon. Just let me spend one last birthday with you."I didn't know where he got the money for flowers and cake, but when I saw the frostbite on his hands, I could imagine how miserable his life had been."Sharon, have a piece of cake." He lowered the box toward me.I slapped it away, and the cake splattered on the ground.He froze for a second, then forced a laugh. "I
