All Chapters of After He Married My Sister: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

When I opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was a ceiling that was dazzlingly white. There are herbs in the airA healer was changing my bandages. When she saw I was awake, she let out a breath. “Julia, you finally woke up. You’ve been unconscious for two days. The wound is healing well—may the Moon Goddess bless you.”My throat was so dry it felt like cracked stone. “Two days?”She nodded. “Your sister Susan brought you here. She so terrified that she fainted. Your parents and Alpha Aron have been with her in the next room the whole time. Do you want me to inform them?”I shook my head. “No. They won’t want to see me, and I don’t want to see them either.”She was stunned for a moment, said nothing more, then put away the medicine bottle and went out.After the door closed, I heard voices in the hall.“Poor girl.”“Yeah. While she was out, her breathing was so faint it almost stopped, and her family still didn’t come.”“I heard Susan is about to be marked by Alpha Aron—she’s the Luna

After I was discharged, I went home.The whole villa was so silent I could hear my own breathing.I took out everything connected to Alpha Aron—old letters, photos, the badge engraved with his name.I had planned to give those to him as my Luna’s gift when we officially bonded.Now—they were a joke.I stuffed it all into a bag and threw it into the fireplace, watching the flames devour the past.As I turned, I heard a car door slam.Aron had brought Susan home.He stood in the doorway. His gaze swept the ashes, his expression a blade.Susan nestled in his arms; voice soft. “See, Aron? Julia really learned her lesson this time. She’s still my sister—don’t be so cold to her.”His eyes slid over me; his tone stayed flat. “I’ve never had patience for the unimportant.”I didn’t answer. I nodded and went upstairs.In that moment I realized my heart had gone numb, stripped of even the smallest warmth.—The next day was Susan and Aron’s engagement banquet.The Silver Claw Pack’s territory bla

The pack’s medical station was silent at dawn, the air metallic and antiseptic.When I woke, my back still throbbed. The punishment that night had left no obvious wounds, but each breath tugged at the torn muscles.A young nurse entered; her steps so light they barely existed. She lifted the gauze, checked my back, and a flicker of worry crossed her face. “It’s just minor scratch. You’ll be fine soon,” she said gently.I said nothing, just straightened the torn collar.In Silver Claw territory, an Alpha’s word is never up for debate.I stayed at the station two days. During that time, messages from Susan flooded in.“We’ve decided to turn your room into a nursery. When Aron and I bring our pup home, we’ll set it up there.”“He took me to choose my wedding dress today. When my feet hurt from trying them on, he knelt and massaged my legs. People say an Alpha rarely act so gentle, but he’s always like that with me.”My fingers trembled over the screen. The numb, cold feeling was worse tha

I hadn’t expected to survive.When I opened my eyes again, the white glare of the ceiling nearly burned through them. The air smelled of medicine and machines—the wolf hospital—cold, clean, merciless.A doctor stood by the bed, scanning my chart. “We fought for over ten hours. Massive blood loss. Three fractures. Waking up… is a miracle.”I flexed my fingers; my fingertips were ice.“Thank you,” I rasped. The voice didn’t sound human.He pressed his lips together, hesitated, then asked, “Were you brought in by the Silver Claw Alpha and Luna?”I didn’t answer. I turned my head toward the gray‑white sky outside.Sensing it, he let it go and sighed. “Rest well.”The door shut, and the only sound left was my heartbeat.Two days passed. No one came to see me.Not my parents. Not Aron. Not even Susan’s cocky tail, so bright in the pack, swished by.On the third day, when I was cleared to be discharged, they finally came.Alpha and Luna, neat in formal wear, stood at the door without a trace

I rubbed at the ache in my back and legs and glanced at my phone.No new messages. Of course, no one would contact me.If I vanished, Silver Claw wouldn’t notice, much less search.I slipped into the flow of travelers.On this unfamiliar ground, looking at faces that were strange and free, I realized—I had truly, completely left.No past. No family. No ties.I should have felt afraid. Instead, I felt light.That complete severing—I’d never known it could feel safe.From now on, I would live again for myself.No one knows I wanted to leave since I was small.Even as the Alpha’s daughter, I was never truly part of the family.I was the younger sister, but only a spare shadow—born a tool to save her life.I once wondered if I’d been adopted. Confirming I was their child hurt worse—it meant they truly didn’t love me.Outside the glass doors, the wind was cold. My phone held no message from anyone I knew.This time, I wasn’t disappointed.I checked an address—an apartment I’d booked long ag
