Semua Bab My Alpha's Control Ended Where My First Love Began: Bab 1 - Bab 10

Elena's POVIn our three years of bond, my Alpha, Damon Slater, maintained a facade of gentle affection while secretly poisoning me with a sterility-inducing drug. I was on the verge of confronting him when his lover, Isabelle Turner, brazenly declared that she was pregnant with Damon's pup. "I'd like to announce that my Alpha has given me the most precious gift."Isabelle had announced it in a cloyingly sweet and triumphant tone, with an accompanying photo showing her hand resting on her lower abdomen.I was stunned, my breath catching in my throat. That single message instantly crushed my intention to seek Damon out and demand a confrontation.In the meantime, the group chat was bombarded with messages."Congratulations! Alpha Damon finally has an heir!""It's wonderful news for the pack!""I'll have to start preparing for the congratulatory gift!"There were well-wishes coming in one after another. Callum Smith, the Beta of the pack, instantly gave Isabelle a shimmering, r

"I was worried that you'd be upset, Elena," Damon said softly, his voice barely a whisper as he made a desperate, last-ditch attempt to justify his actions.I retorted with a sneer, "You're worried about upsetting me, huh? You deceived me for three years, convincing me my own body was defective and forcing me into a cycle of self-blame with every passing month, Damon!"Damon stated nonchalantly, "You just have to stop drinking that drug from now on."I stared at him as I recalled every single detail of our three years together. I remembered how, on every full moon, he would watch me drink the "elixir" with a look of profound love and worry in his eyes. I remembered how he comforted me after every menstrual cycle, saying, "It's alright, Elena, since we still have time. I'm sure the Moon Goddess will watch over us." It turned out that every comforting word he uttered had been a deception, and the concern in his eyes was nothing more than a carefully crafted mask."E-Elena?" Damon

"I'd like to thank the Moon Goddess for her blessing, esteemed Elders!" Isabelle suddenly stood up from her seat, her overly sweet and triumphant voice seizing the attention of everyone present.She stroked her pregnant belly with one hand while pulling Chief Elder Dominic’s hand with the other. She then guided his hand to rest on her belly, her features radiating a smug, triumphant pleasure. "I just felt the pup move! You have to feel this immense life force firsthand, Chief Elder Dominic!"Chief Elder Dominic exclaimed with delight, "What a powerful Alpha bloodline! It is undoubtedly the divine blessing bestowed by the Moon Goddess!"I gripped the chair's armrest so tightly that my fingernails sank deep into the ancient timber.Isabelle shot me a knowing look before saying, "That's right, Chief Elder Dominic. You see, not all women are worthy of the Moon Goddess' grace—some bloodlines are simply unable to carry on the Alpha's lineage."In that instant, the Council of Elders laun

I spoke with a chilling hatred, saying, "I've already taken asylum with the Silverfang pack, and I've also severed my mate bond with Damon, Mom."Mom shrieked, "How could you do this, Elena? You're destroying the pack!"I stated mercilessly, "If our pack's standing requires my constant suffering, then I welcome its collapse! If either you or Dad attempts to control me again, I'll exile myself and sever all ties to the Silverstone pack, Mom.""You can't be this selfish, Elena! You—" I hung up the phone before Mom got to finish her protest and promptly blocked her number.Liam took my hand in his, saying, "You've endured long enough, Elena."…In the days that followed, the sheer scale of Damon's bounty began to take root in every territory. There were plenty of bounty hunters who actively began the search for my trail.There was also the sudden proliferation of bad press about me across all online platforms."Fugitive Luna Abandoned Pack and Eloped to Foreign Lands.""Quest for

Damon remained kneeling on the ground, his voice trembling as he confessed, "I love you—I've always loved you, Elena."I merely looked at Damon, my features betraying no emotion.He continued, "I want you to know that my bond with Isabelle was solely born of obligation, Elena. You need to have faith in me. The sole object of my affection is you, Elena."He became increasingly agitated, saying, "I can't stop thinking about you every night—your smile, your warmth, and the way you feel in my arms.""You don't need to put on a show of remorse for me now, as I won't believe any word of it, Damon. You ought to know that our relationship was rendered irrevocably over the moment you fed me Shadowmoon Drug," I stated flatly, unwilling to listen to any more of his explanations.Damon wept uncontrollably. "It's all my fault, Elena. I now realize that you are my one true, destined mate. I'm nothing without you, Elena." It was then that his phone rang, with Isabelle's name appearing on the s
