Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Alpha Wants Me Back? Denied.: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 10

Lack of oxygen made my head buzz. Black spots crept in at the edges of my vision.The suffocation overlapped with a memory from ten years ago. Amidst a snowstorm, I had desperately forced healing energy into Lucian's dying body.Just before I collapsed from exhaustion, I felt a bond with Lucian. It came from the depths of my soul and signified the bond between fated mates.I thought I had finally found my fated mate, but when I woke up, everything had changed.Sadie had passed by while I was unconscious. She used dark magic to erase my scent and stole my credit.When Lucian opened his eyes, she was the first wolf he saw. So, from that moment on, he was never mine again.I started coughing violently and felt the pressure on my throat loosen a little. Gasping for air, I stared at Lucian, the wolf I had loved for ten years.On our mating ritual night, he had me pinned by my throat and warned me never to touch him. He had claimed that his body and soul belonged to his savior, Sadie.

As the wound tore open, it burned with a sharp pain that pierced the bones, but it was nothing compared to the chill in my heart.I looked at Conan, the pup who stood shielding Sadie, baring his blood-stained fangs at me. In his eyes, I was the enemy.I felt something inside me finally snap—the last fragile thread that had bound us together as mother and son. Over these ten years, he had been thoroughly ruined.If he wanted to claim the liar as his mother, I was fine with having to discard him, too.Cold sweat broke across my skin, but deep down, I was terrifyingly calm. I knew I had to leave, and for good. If I openly fought back, Lucian would never agree to dissolve the bond, and he would also imprison me.So, I swallowed the pain and forced a look of submission and defeat. Looking down, I whispered, "Fine… I'll stop. I don't want Conan to hate me."Lucian relaxed. He wore a smug, victorious look as he thought he had once again found my weakness and pinned me down."That's r

After leaving the pack house, I headed straight to the neutral zone. There, I found a reclusive witch and sought her help to completely sever my bond with Lucian."Forcing a one-sided severance will wound you deeply, my pup,"I stared at her with an unwavering gaze. "I'd rather die free than live bound."Soon, the ritual began. When I drank the potion infused with severance energy, it felt as if my soul was being ripped in two. Agony surged through my veins before I coughed up blood and collapsed.But when I looked at the blood, I smiled.…At the Bloodfang pack, Lucian was dealing with pack affairs when his heart buckled. A jagged, agonizing sensation ripped through his chest and threw him off the chair, onto the floor.His wolf howled inside him with a guttural, soul-shattering despair. The invisible thread that had linked his soul to mine was permanently severed by a force he couldn't stand a chance of fighting back."No…" he roared in anguish, kneeling on the floor.That w

After returning to the pack grounds, Lucian seemed to have lost his soul. He shut himself in his study as the cold detachment in my eyes at Luminal Concord played on a loop in his mind.Meanwhile, the humiliated Sadie took out all her rage on Conan. "Stop crying! All you ever do is cry! Even your deadbeat mother doesn't want you anymore!"She dug her nails into his arm and left deep marks, while Conan curled into a ball from the pain.Late that night, Conan grew so desperate for my scent that he sneaked into the master bedroom and hoped to find a piece of my old clothing. The closet door was ajar. He was about to slip inside when he heard Sadie enter, already on the phone.Terrified, he hid deep within the hanging clothes. "Lucian is such a fool. He hasn't even noticed a thing," she said, her venomous voice dripping with contempt. "Pregnant? Please. Thanks to the dark magic potion I used daily to mimic a pregnant scent, and a little illusionary magic to make my stomach look r

Lucian stood in the rain for three days and nights before he finally collapsed. He was thrown into an off-road vehicle by a group of half-breeds who found him. When he woke up, he did not give up either. His regret had mutated into a frantic, obsessive desperation.For the next week, caravans of rare treasures and lavish gifts arrived at Erick's pack grounds in a steady stream. He even issued a public proclamation across the packs to admit his wrongs and declare that I was his only true mate.To me, everything he was doing was just harassment. Every gift was returned untouched, along with a letter that only had two words—"Stop it."Half a month later, a grand ritual was held in the camp. I was arranged to be mates with pureblood Alpha Erick.Lucian snuck in and hid in the shadows, staring at the high platform with greedy, desperate hunger. He watched as the tall, powerful Erick took my hand and gently slid a ring onto my finger.A radiant crown was placed on my head and caught l
