All Chapters of Love Stayed in Yesterday: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I stood outside the door to the study, holding a plate of deer meat that was still dripping with fresh blood. It was instinctual for an expectant she-wolf to crave sources of energy, but at that moment, I felt my stomach roiling with nausea. However, it wasn't due to the scent of blood, but because of the conversation happening in the study."Alpha, you sure are ruthless," the Beta of the pack, Marcus Foster, said, voice deliberately pitched very low, "Aurora is so loyal to you, yet because you want to protect Vivian, you're treating her as nothing but a breeding tool?"Dominic Carlton's indifferent reply chilled me down to my very bones."Vivian is an Omega, so her body won't be able to cope with the energy needed to sustain a pup, and she'll die. Nonetheless, she needs to have a strong pup to stabilise her position in Jason's family."As for Aurora… Once the pup is born, I'll tell her that it died at birth. After that, I'll use losing the pup as an excuse to chase her out of

Earlier the next morning, Dominic stopped me before I could leave the house."Here, this is for you."He fished out a thin metal chain that he helped me put on my wrist. It was incredibly light and had the sort of golden sheen that came from cheap materials. However, the instant my sensitive skin came into contact with it, I felt a stinging pain.This wasn't real gold, but an iron chain coated in silver and made to look like gold.In werewolf culture, gifting a mate an iron chain symbolized "imprisonment" and "enslavement". Usually, it was put on low-ranking werewolves who had done something wrong.He had gifted Vivian a moonstone bracelet that could soothe and nurture the wolf inside, yet what I got was a silver bracelet that could kill me.Staring at me with an "adoring" look, he said, "Although it's not anything expensive, I feel like it suits you very well, as it can lock our love."I lowered my head to gaze at the cheap silver chain, my fingers trembling slightly.The mate

A day later, there was a heavy pounding at the front doors of the treatment center.Shutting my eyes, I took a deep breath. It seemed that what was bound to come had come.Soon after, the door to my room was violently kicked open.A group of people charged into my room with Dominic leading the way. He was covered from head to toe in dust and looked incredibly disheveled.When he spotted me on the bed, looking pale, and scented the faint coppery tang of blood in the air, the panic in his eyes doubled."Aurora, have you gone crazy?" He darted over to me and attempted to grab my hand. "How could you be so impulsive and hurt our pup? Explain yourself!"I shot him a cold look as I flung his hand away from mine."Explain myself? The one who should be explaining themselves is you! Don't you think I deserve it, considering how you were planning on giving my pup to Vivian? Or how you played the part of adoring and doting mate as I struggled with my pregnancy, all while you kept sneaking

The absolute dominance of someone from the royal family bloodline had all the common werewolves present instinctively wanting to fall to their knees and submit. This included Dominic, who was an Alpha.The Luna Queen, Malia Thorne, charged over to pull me behind her protectively. Her frosty gaze swept across my adopted parents."Since you've admitted yourselves that Aurora isn't biologically yours, then it's time for this entire facade to end!"Sierra was shocked at Malia's aggressive demeanor, but she forced herself to appear calm. "And which pack are you from? We're just disciplining the stray we took in! Who are you to stick your nose into our business?"At that moment, Raymond came over, a respectful look tinged with fear on his face. He tilted his head to bare his neck—the highest form of respect a werewolf could show another."Greetings, Your Majesty, the Luna Queen!"Immediately, all the color drained from Vivian, Sierra, and Ollie's faces.Malia pinned them with an icy g

After such a harsh blow, I thought that Vivian would finally rein herself in and keep her head down.Unexpectedly, she still refused to give up, allowing the jealousy to grow in her wildly.One day, Aiden sent me a link. It took me to an anonymous post on the Werewolf Community Network.The post had an eye-catching title, "The true colors of the werewolf princess: a demon who bullies her younger sister and seizes everything for herself."The content went into detail about all the "tragic experiences" Vivian had gone through, such as how I always bullied her when we were young and how I would snatch all her prey and pretty clothes. Besides that, she claimed that I was incredibly scheming, citing that I would deliberately act docile and obedient when in the presence of others, but when nobody was around, I would force her to let me have my way.She even had the audacity to say that I had forced Sierra and Ollie to give Jason to me as my mate, leaving her with no choice but to part w
