Semua Bab Princess of Wolves: Vengeance: Bab 1 - Bab 7

I was chained to the tree with my legs forced open. It was deeply humiliating.When sunlight hit my face, I honestly thought I was already dead.My arms were numb. Only the searing pain in my wrists proved I was still alive. I didn't know how much longer I could hold on.Right then, I heard footsteps from somewhere deeper in the woods. It sounded like a group of werewolves was coming my way.My mind snapped awake. I used everything I had left and screamed."Help! Help!"The footsteps sped up.But then, I heard crude voices whispering among themselves."Is this the wretch Ms. Anderson told us about?""There's no mistake. Ms. Anderson is too kind. She knew we were in heat and even found us a wretch to play with!"My heart sank.Did Rebecca Anderson send these werewolves?She would never be kind enough to send someone to free me.I held my breath and pressed myself flat against the tree, hoping they wouldn't find me.Alas, I had no such luck.A few minutes later, several

I went to the nearest healers' den to get my wounds taken care of.The moment I stepped into the lobby, I froze.I saw Rebecca lying on an emergency cot, her face pale. Beside her, Cameron looked on restlessly.The healer spotted me and jumped. "Ms. Sullivan! Are you hurt again? I just bandaged you this morning!"Cameron heard that and turned. The anger he had barely contained flared right back up."Zendaya! Can you just stop? You've chased us all the way into the healers' den now?"The healer stopped him quickly. "Alpha Cameron, Ms. Sullivan is also a patient. When she was brought in this morning, her wrists were nearly ruined by silver handcuffs, and…"I finished the sentence for the healer. "And I was attacked by a group of rogues. I was badly injured."The healer looked startled that I said it myself and gave me a sympathetic nod before trying to pull me inside for treatment.Hearing the healer confirm my injuries, Cameron was stunned into silence. His pupils contracted.

After that horrifying night at the healers' den, Cameron finally began to feel fear and regret.He searched for me like a mad wolf, only to discover that I had vanished into thin air.For the first time, he realized with terror that after three years of being with me, all he truly knew about me was that I was beautiful and obedient.As for my past, he knew almost nothing.He called and texted me. The messages shifted from commands and accusations, to finally pleading and remorse.[Zendaya, where are you? We need to talk.][I know I messed up! I never should've left you alone at that tree.][Please come back. I'll take care of everything with Rebecca.]I ignored every message.While recovering from my injuries, I began to quietly mobilize every resource in the Werewolf Kingdom with William's help.Like an invisible web, it spread through every corner of Cameron's pack.I used my understanding of leverage and werewolf nature to reach out to several key betrayers around him. Th

In the end, William stepped forward, draped a warm coat over my shoulders, and said softly, "Princess, it's getting cold."I turned and looked at the werewolf who had silently protected me all this time. For the first time, I showed a smile that came from true relief.I no longer dwelt on the emotions from the past.I simply said to him, and to the version of myself who had just been reborn, "William, don't call me Princess anymore. Let's become each other's mates."William smiled. "Princess, you never needed to confess. We've already bonded as a pair. We'll be together from now on."He pulled me into his arms. We held each other tightly, savoring the hard-won happiness.A year later, William and I held our marking ceremony before the entire pack. With everyone's blessings, his mark traced across my neck, and I officially became his Luna."We have chosen each other as mates. For better or worse, for richer or poorer, in sickness or in health, we'll love and protect each other un
