CHAPTER ELEVEN

HOPE’S POV.I woke to warmth.At first, I thought it was the blanket wrapped around me. But then I felt it—someone holding me. I felt the careful, steady pressure against my body. Arms wrapped around my waist, strong yet gentle. At first, I almost panicked, the first thought in my head being a question of who I could have possibly ended up in bed with. But then the memory hit me. The news of Amber's death, Returning to Red Moon, Hunter and Derek fighting...Hunter.I didn’t move. Not yet. I stayed perfectly still, letting myself remember everything from last night. How he had been there when my fever spiked. How he had cooled me with that damp towel. How he held me when the nightmares came. Even half asleep, I had known he was there. A part of me had been aware of him the whole time.I lifted my head slightly and let my gaze fall on him. He was asleep, face calm, breathing even. The soft morning light through the thin curtains highlighted the sharp lines of his jaw, the sweep of his

CHAPTER TWELVE

HOPE’S POV.The morning of my sister’s burial arrived far too quickly.I had barely slept the night before. Even though my fever had gone down, my body still felt weak and heavy. But the pain in my chest was much worse than any sickness.Amber was gone.No matter how many times I reminded myself of that truth, it still felt unreal.Hunter stood quietly near the small window of the room, watching the gray sky outside. The rain from the night before had stopped, but the clouds still hung low over the forest. Everything looked dull and silent, as if the world itself was mourning.I slowly finished tying the black ribbon around my wrist.Today was Amber’s funeral.After today… everything would change.I had already made up my mind about one thing. Once the funeral was over, I would leave the pack for a while.Hunter needed to find his memories. He deserved to know who he really was and where he came from.And I would help him.Even if that journey took us far away from this place.Even if

CHAPTER THIRTEEN

HOPE'S POV.One by one, people stepped forward to say their final goodbyes.Some placed flowers on the coffin.Some whispered prayers.Some cried openly.I stayed where I was, watching silently.Hunter’s hand rested lightly against my back.He didn’t say anything.He just stayed there.Eventually, the line became shorter.And shorter.Until there were only a few people left.My heart began beating faster.It was almost my turn.Hunter seemed to notice.“Hope,” he said quietly, “you don’t have to rush.”I shook my head slowly.“No… I want to.”Taking a deep breath, I stepped forward.Each step toward the coffin felt heavier than the last.When I finally reached it, my legs almost refused to move.Amber lay inside.Her face looked peaceful.As if she were simply sleeping.For a moment, I couldn’t breathe.So many memories rushed through my mind.Her laughter.Her teasing voice.The way she always defended me when others judged or looked down on me.Tears filled my eyes.“Amber…” I whisp

CHAPTER FOURTEEN

HOPE’S POV.The Old Alpha’s words still echoed in my ears. It was as if my brain was having a hard time processing what my ears had heard. I kept trying to make sense of the words and failing miserably with each attempt. And why wouldn’t I? There was no way what I just heard could possibly make any sense.My King.The way he said it had not sounded like a joke. It had sounded like fear. Like recognition. My frown deepened in confusion.For a moment, the clearing felt completely silent. Even the wind between the trees seemed to stop.Hunter stood beside me, calm but slightly confused.“I’m sorry, I think you have the wrong person,” he said again, his voice steady. “As a matter of fact, I’m very sure you have the wrong person, sir.”But the Old Alpha kept staring at him as if he were seeing a ghost from the past.Slowly, he shook his head.“No… no, the resemblance… the resemblance is too strong. Too strong to be mistaken. I…” he trailed off, taking another look at Hunter, this time more

CHAPTER FIFTEEN

HOPE'S POV.The words fell heavily between us.I felt Hunter stiffen slightly beside me.I swallowed and slowly shook my head.“Alpha, I—”But he gently raised his hand.“Please. Listen first.”So I stayed silent.“Our alliance with the Beta family has always been built on trust,” he continued. “Your sister was meant to be Luna. But fate took her from us.”Pain stabbed through my chest again.“But you are still here,” he said.I swallowed hard.“If you were to become Luna, the bond between our families would remain strong.”His voice softened.“I am asking you to consider it carefully.”Before I could respond, Derek suddenly stepped forward.His expression looked different from usual.Less arrogant, more serious.“Hope,” he said softly.I looked at him slowly.For a moment, neither of us spoke.Then he took a breath.“I regret what happened between us.”His voice sounded unusually sincere.“I made mistakes.”I frowned slightly.Derek had never apologized to me before. Never. Not even

CHAPTER SIXTEEN

HOPE’S POV.After my mother fainted, everything became chaotic.Several people rushed to help her. Someone called for the pack doctor, and she was quickly carried to the pack hospital.Hunter stayed beside me the entire time.I barely remembered the walk to the hospital. My mind felt foggy with fear and worry. Even though my mother and I had never been very close, seeing her collapse like that frightened me.When we arrived, the doctor told everyone to wait outside while he checked on her.Minutes passed.Then more minutes.Each second felt painfully slow.I sat quietly on one of the wooden benches in the hallway, my hands clasped tightly together. Hunter sat beside me, his shoulder brushing mine gently.“Your mother will be fine,” he said softly.I nodded, but I still felt uneasy.Finally, the doctor came out of the room.“She fainted from shock and exhaustion,” he explained. “She will wake up soon. One person can stay with her.”“I will,” I said immediately.The doctor nodded and st

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN

HOPE’S POV.For a moment, I didn't respond. I just stood there, watching him in silence.Derek stood a few steps away from me in the quiet hallway of the pack hospital. His hands were clenched tightly at his sides. His eyes were fixed on me, full of pain and disbelief.His face was hard, his eyes blazing with anger, and I could almost see the angry smoke coming out of his ears as he turned to glare at Hunter. If looks could kill, Hunter would already be six feet below the earth."Ignore him," I muttered to Hunter, but Derek caught it. His head snapped to me. "Hope!""What?" I snapped.“I rejected you long ago, Derek," I said firmly. “I have every right to marry another man. I have every right to be with whomever I choose to be with. It's of no concern to you.”The words left my mouth before I could soften them. But I didn’t regret saying them. Derek needed to hear the truth. I didn't appreciate him thinking and acting like I still owed him something when I obviously don't.“I already

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

HUNTER'S POV.I didn’t feel offended by Robert’s words.Many men would have taken his blunt question as an insult. The cold, judging way he had looked at me across the dinner table could easily make someone feel small.But I understood him.He was a father.And fathers wanted the best for their children.Right now, in his eyes, I was nothing.No pack, no title, no background.No future he could see.Just a man with no memory and no place in the world.If I were him, I would probably feel the same way.So instead of getting angry, I simply met his gaze calmly.“You’re right,” I said.The room became even quieter.Hope looked at me in surprise.Her father raised an eyebrow slightly, as if he hadn’t expected that answer.“You’re right,” I repeated. “Right now, I don’t have much to offer. But that won’t always be the case.”Robert leaned back slightly in his chair.“Oh?” he said.His voice was calm, but I could hear the doubt in it.I kept my voice steady.“If I’m going to marry Hope, I w

CHAPTER NINETEEN

HUNTER'S POV.The next morning, I left the house early.Hope was still asleep.I didn’t want to wake her.As I walked through the quiet streets of the town, I kept thinking about Robert’s question."What exactly do you have to offer my daughter?"The truth was simple.Right now…Nothing.But that didn’t mean I couldn’t change that.As I walked, my hand instinctively touched the necklace hanging around my neck.The cool stone brushed against my fingers.The sapphire stone.It was the only thing I had carried with me since the day I woke up with no memories.I didn’t know where it came from.Or why I had it.But something about it always felt important.I stopped walking and pulled it out from under my shirt.The blue gemstone sparkled slightly under the morning sunlight.It was beautiful.Even someone like me, who knew nothing about jewelry, could tell that.Maybe…An idea slowly formed in my mind.A few minutes later, I found myself standing in front of a small jewelry store.The sign

CHAPTER TWENTY

DEREK'S POV.Something was wrong.I knew it the moment I heard that that rogue Hunter had bought a car and an engagement ring.Just yesterday, that man had nothing. No money. No job. No family name. He was just a rogue with no past and no future.Yet suddenly he was spending money like it meant nothing.It didn’t make sense.I stood in my office, staring out the window as anger burned in my chest.Hope choosing him over me had already humiliated me enough.And now he was walking around my territory like he owned it. The way he carried himself one would think he actually deserved her. Like he could actually afford to give her a good life?And the way I'm seeing this....I shook my head.No.Something was wrong. Something wasn't adding up.I turned toward the guards standing near my door.“Find out where that rogue got his money,” I ordered coldly.“Yes, Alpha.”The guards bowed and left quickly.I sat down behind my desk, tapping my fingers impatiently.It didn’t take long.About an ho
