CHAPTER TWOAfter gently settling the trembling girl on the ground,Ryker’s blazing eyes immediately turned to the men lying on the ground.Walking coldly toward them, he raised one of the trembling man’s hands and asked coldly,“Which hand did you just touch her with?” his face grim, like a grim reaper.When they didn’t respond, he calmly broke each of their limbs.Although his face was devoid of any emotion except calmness, Ember could clearly see the anger and jealousy that were barely contained in his eyes.And it broke her.The fact that she had spent three years trying to see any of this emotion was heartbreaking.Even when thugs tried to harass her, he didn’t show any emotion. Rather, he handled it calmly, as if he were dealing with an unsolved business problem.Even when she openly flirted with other men,He simply calmly looked at her and dragged her back.Nothing she did ever evoked the emotion she dearly desired from him.Yet here he was, looking like someone had punched hi

CHAPTER FOUREmber came back to an empty house, with only the maids and guards as her companions.But she didn’t care.That night, Ryker didn’t come back home either. Ember still didn’t care. In the past, she would have called him and sent him lots of flirty messages. But what happened a few days ago was enough to reset her love-struck brain.Of course, he never stayed out late before, and he rarely traveled for business meetings. So Ember just knew he was with his sweetheart.True to her words, the internet was buzzing with news of the small-time actress and the youngest, handsome Alpha Ryker.The hashtags read:The small-time beautiful actress and handsome Alpha Ryker were spotted leaving the hospital.Beautiful actress Linda finally reunited with her heartbeat.Alpha Ryker throws his childhood sweetheart a welcome party.Alpha Ryker and his sweetheart.Ember was nearly frustrated.

CHAPTER SIXHe had always known she loved him.Yet all these years, he had watched her make a fool of herself just to stir some feeling in him. She had been loving, crying, struggling.And Ryker? He had watched coldly from the sidelines as she struggled pointlessly within the circle he had drawn for her, utterly unmoved, like the coldest of spectators.He knew well enough that she loved him. Yet he humiliated her.The cruelty and betrayal broke her.Ember dug her nails deeply into her palms to maintain her composure. She looked at Ryker with a determined expression.“Try me.”With that, she turned to walk away.But Ryker’s mother, the queen, immediately walked up to her with a scowl on her face. Dressed in a pristine white chiffon dress, she exuded an ethereal beauty.“Ember Valen, one moment please.”Ember followed her with a frown. She had always known that Marilee Hale—Ryker’s mother—never liked her, but she followed her nonetheless.At the corner of her eye, she could see Ryker ru

CHAPTER EIGHTFive years later, Ember lay on the bed in her little room at the hospital, her scattered long hair falling carelessly on her face. The loud ringing of her phone caused her to open her eyes with a frownWho the hell is thatShe had been attending to patients since two days now, and just when she wants to get some sleep, some annoying creature just wants to frustrate herGroaning, she picked the constantly ringing phone“Hello, Director Jim.As expected, Jim's flattering voice came laced with a little seriousness and urgency“Ember, you're resting?Ember felt the urge to roll her eyesOf course he knew she's taking a rest“What is it, Jim?” Ember asked, sitting up while running her hands on her scattered hair“Can you come down for a few minutes?Her eyes flicked to the clock“Why?“I need to discuss something with you, please, just for 30 minutes.“20,” Ember insisted“Fine, 20 minutes.

CHAPTER TENFor a long while, the room was swallowed by silence.Not the calm kind—but the suffocating kind that pressed heavily against everyone’s chest.The shock of the scene left everyone utterly dumbstruck.Who in the pack didn’t know the marriage history between Alpha Ryker Hale and his ex-Luna, Ember Valen? It was a story whispered in every corner of the territory, a tragedy etched into collective memory.Yet now, seeing the Alpha—who had barely spoken in three years—clinging tightly to the very woman he had once rejected, no one knew whether to laugh or cry.Some could only think silently that if this was karma, then it had arrived with brutal precision.Linda’s face darkened instantly.She couldn’t accept it. Couldn’t accept Ember holding Ryker, couldn’t accept the way his body leaned instinctively toward her, as if she were his only anchor. Forcing a bright smile that barely hid her resentment, she stepped forward and reached for his hand.“Ryker, it’s me… Linda,” she said so
