The Traitor and the Betrayed のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 8

As soon as I stepped through the Pack's archway, my parents, Marcus and Margaret, were already blocking my path.Marcus used the Alpha's Command on me to force me to speak. "Before Sophia passed out, she told us you took her antidote!"Even under the pressure, I simply answered coldly, "She was already poisoned by the vampire's poison. You're really going to trust the word of someone who's out of it?"He was trembling with rage as his claws shot out, and he lunged at me. I easily moved to the side, and he missed me.Margaret stood to the side and spoke in a hurt tone, "Anna, don't you know how much your sister, Sophia, cares about you?! She got hurt protecting you. She wouldn't have lied!"My mother was right!Ever since Sophia had come back to the pack and was confirmed as Marcus's biological daughter, she had never once blamed me, the one who had been adopted. Instead, she treated me better than any real sister would.Whenever we went out and ran into danger and I didn't have

Sophia staggered toward us, her once healthy face now pale as a sheet, her once full cheeks hollowed as the vampire's poison spread through her veins.Lucian ran over to support her. "Sophia, don't push yourself. The effect of the witch's potion is wearing off. If you get too worked up, your wounds will only get worse."Sophia endured her sorrow and looked straight at me, tears welling in her eyes. "Anna, did those vampires threaten you and make you take my antidote? If you're in trouble, you have to tell me, tell Mom and Dad! We won't blame you!"My heart ached as I watched her still fighting to keep me safe despite being in such a frail state. However, I hardened my heart as that moment passed and said in a harsh tone, "Enough with the pathetic act. Since when have I ever taken your antidote?!"Sophia's eyes widened. "What are you saying?"I looked at her with contempt. "I'm saying that you're framing me for something I didn't do."Her tears finally spilled over, dripping onto

As Lucian dragged me away, the pack continued hurling their curses at me.I could not stop myself from looking back, only to see Sophia staring at me. The sorrow in her eyes scared me more than any poison.I closed my eyes.-Once I was in the dungeon, the darkness consumed me completely. I curled up on the cold stone floor as every small movement caused me unbearable pain. It was a reminder that my body was being torn apart.From outside the door came the sounds of branches being snapped as someone walked over them. Then, the bolt on the iron door was slid open.Cyrus stepped inside the cell.In the dim, flickering light, the face that had appeared so stern and virtuous in the daylight now looked malevolent and twisted. He stopped in front of me and lifted my chin up with the toe of his boot. "Oh, Anna. You're still just as stubborn."I forced my eyes open and spat a mouthful of blood at that face full of deception. "Cyrus... You're scared."The edge of Cyrus's eye twitched.

My blood went into Sophia's mouth and into her throat.Suddenly, Sophia's body went rigid, and light burst from every pore. The black lines on her skin began to quickly retreat as if they had been exorcised from her body.The healing was brutally painful as my blood was mending her body and soul. Sophia let out low growls repeatedly. That was her Wolf Soul being stitched back together by force. At the same time, I could feel the power inside me draining fast. With every drop of blood that left my body, my mind grew a little more hazy."Stop! Stop it!" Marcus finally managed to escape from the vampires and rushed toward us, his voice shaking so hard it barely sounded like him. He stared at my face that was becoming paler as every second passed. He finally understood the price of all this."Anna… That's enough! You're going to die!" He tried to shove me away, but the moonlight energy flowing out of my body threw him back. That energy pushed everything away in nature. Until the cleans
