Chapter 1: DIVORCE

CELESTE MAGNUS POV The pack doctor laid his hand on my tummy, rubbing it in a slow, round circle. Suddenly his hand stopped moving. Instantly, I tensed. I watched his face fall in sadness, and restlessness gripped me as I wondered what could be wrong. “Luna, your wolf is beginning to slip into slumber. You must terminate the pregnancy immediately.” He disclosed.My heart skipped a beat. My hands flew to my stomach protectively as though I could shield the tiny life inside of me from what he’d just said. Tears burned behind my eyes. The child I’ve longed for has finally come—but now my wolf is falling asleep. How could that be possible?My tears spilled down my chin as I shook my head in refusal. “How could that be? I can feel my child. She’s so lively—she even responds to my touch.” The doctor let out a heavy sigh, staring at me with so much pity. “Luna, her health is only temporary,” He said, shattering every last shred of hope I had left. “Once your wolf falls asleep, your bo

Chapter 2: DEAL SEALED

CELESTE MAGNUS POVI already knew I’d lost his heart. But I never expected him to act so soon—not even willing to wait for our child to be born. What will happen to my child? I’ve always known he might not love me, but now…it felt like all hope was gone even before trying. My head was in a jumbled mess, as I stared into space, my eyes not blinking. “I have divided the property, please sign it as soon as possible.”His voice broke through my thought, as my eyes blinked rapidly non-stop. Without hesitation, I stormed towards him and grabbed hold of his wrist and pulled up. He tried to protest, however, I stubbornly gave him no room for that, as I continued to drag him with me, until we got to the living area.He quickly withdrew his wrist from my hold, “what are you doing? He barked, trying to walk out of me to go back to Hazel.“Are you really divorcing me, Adrien?” I asked, staring at his face, hoping that he would rebuke those words.Never in my wildest dream had I thought he wo

Chapter 3: PAIN OF BETREYALS

ADRIEN ORION POV I walked near the tall glass window of the villa, watching as Celeste’s figure disappeared from the room.The moment the door shut behind her, the tension in my shoulders finally eased. A breath escaped me.“Finally,” I muttered under my breath.Her car engine started outside the gates, and I watched it drive away until it vanished from sight.Yet, what she said kept lingering in my heart.“Could she really be pregnant?” I whispered under my breath, and quickly shook my head. “No—she’s not my mate. There's no way she could conceive my child.” However, I did not ignore the despair in her eyes. I’ve never seen her get out of control like this.Could there be truth in her words? No, I can't make stupid mistakes again. Seeing her again had only brought back memories that I had tried to bury for months. No matter how much time passed, the moment she appeared in front of me, the lies and betrayal followed right behind her.And yet she had the nerve to stand there, calm

Chapter 4: FLICKERED OF HOPE

CELESTE MAGNUS POVAdrien agreed to my terms.That should have given me relief, a flicker of hope, but it didn’t. Not really. Not when his agreement came wrapped in indifference, like he didn’t care whether it saved my life, or our child’s.My hands rested on my stomach, fingers trembling. One month, that’s all I had. One month to wake my wolf, to save my baby, to somehow reclaim a love that seemed to have abandoned me.Since my wolf fell asleep, everything wasn't easy for me. My hearing has become dull and my vision has begun to blur. Even the weight of my own body felt strange, cumbersome, a heavy shell that I could barely lift.I swallowed and pressed my palms against my thighs, willing myself to focus.I had no time to mourn over my failed marriage. No time to cry anymore. My child’s life depended on action.The ancient texts spread across my desk, pages yellowed and worn. I moved through them like a woman possessed, flipping pages with desperate speed, searching for anything—any

Chapter 5: TROUBLED HEART

ADRIEN ORION POV I stepped back, releasing Celeste’s neck, but my body still hummed with tension. My chest felt tight, my pulse a drum I couldn’t slow. I was stunned, she saw through me easily. She knew how much it would cost me if I proceeded with the divorce. My hands itched to grab her again, to pull her close, but I forced myself to step away. I needed distance. I needed control. I was tired of arguing, tired of letting her stir emotions I wasn’t ready to face. Yet, my eyes couldn’t leave her. She stumbled. The motion was slight at first, almost imperceptible, but my instincts screamed. She lost her balance, legs trembling beneath her, and then—she went down hard. “Ouch!” The sharp cry tore through the quiet of the study, echoing off the walls. I froze. My heart lurched, a sick twist in my gut. When had she become so vulnerable? So fragile? My wolf, Alabaz, growled deep in my mind, raw and restless, pulling at my instincts. “She’s hurt! Help her!” I clenche

CHAPTER 6 : NOT A PLEAD

CELESTE MAGNUS POVMy ankle had gotten worse, and it pulsed, slowly, and heavy. The skin around it was red and slightly swollen, even the smallest contact was enough to irritate it.I ignored Adrien completely and picked up the small jar of ointment resting beside me, to apply carefully, myself. I exhaled shakily, my shoulders dropping with the weight of the effort.“Why is everything suddenly so hard…” I murmured under my breath, my voice quiet but firm.My thoughts drifted back to what had happened earlier, replaying in my mind no matter how much I tried to focus on something else. Adrien’s wolf… Alabaz.The way he had surged forward, forcing his aura through the door, scaring Hazel’s maid away without hesitation—it had shocked me more than I wanted to admit, because I remembered something clearly.There was a time when my own wolf, Bellamy, used to tell me that Alabaz liked Hazel, that he felt comfortable around her, because she was his best friend, calm in her presence in a way

CHAPTER 7: COMPLICATION.

CELESTE MAGNUS POVThe drive to the Charity gala venue was quiet, but not the comfortable kind of silence, and I found myself staring out of the window, in my own thoughts. He had agreed to come, yet the way he treated it like an obligation made it difficult to hold on to any meaning behind it.When the car finally stopped in front of the banquet hall. We stepped out of the car, Adrien wore a perfectly tailored black suit, his hands tucked into his pockets, his posture remained relaxed in that effortless way. While I slightly adjusted the off-shoulder black dress that hugged my body before flaring slightly below my knees.The large doors opened to reveal warm golden light spilling outward, accompanied by the soft hum of music and voices that grew clearer as we stepped inside.The moment we entered, the atmosphere wrapped around us completely, while the scent of wine mixed with the subtle presence of powerful wolves gathered in one place.Conversations continued for only a second bef

CHAPTER 8: CLINGING OF FAITH

CELESTE MAGNUS POVMichael rushed me home, carrying me in his arms while sprinting towards my room. “Celeste…wake up!” He screamed out my name, kicked the door open and gently laid me on the bed. My eyes slowly opened. A heavy migraine hit me again; dizziness swirled behind my eyelids. I clutched my head as if the pressure could ease it. The image of blood on my thighs flashed in my mind, and raw fear gripped my chest like icy claws. My hands flew protectively to my stomach; my heart hammered wildly against my ribs.‘Goddess, please… nothing should happen to my baby.’ I silently prayed, my lips quavering in tears.My condition worsened. Michael paced the room, relentlessly, dialing every doctor's line on his phone. Each and every one of them gave the same response.“Hazel, summoned me to her Villa,” the last doctor said, before hanging up.“What nonsense!” He groaned, his chest rising and falling in heavy, frustrated breaths. He turned to leave.“Where are you going?” I asked weakl

Chapter 9: THE FIGHT

ADRIEN ORION POVI saw Celeste’s efforts to help the orphans at the charity gala party, and I also saw how she was being subtly targeted by the people around her. It slowly dawned on me that perhaps my own negligence had caused Celeste to suffer far more than I had ever realized.I had always believed that Celeste, as a princess, would naturally live a comfortable and dignified life even without her husband’s love. In my mind, someone of her status would never truly struggle.But I was completely wrong.Watching the way those nobles’s eyes looked down on her with quiet mockery, made something twist uncomfortably in my chest. It really broke my heart to see people treat her in such an unpleasant and degrading manner.But then another thought kept intruding into my mind.I was about to divorce Celeste anyway. So why was I paying so much attention to her? She betrayed me, and I'm still mad about that.And more importantly… Why did I feel so irritated when I saw that so-called childhood f

CHAPTER 10: SUDDEN ACTION

ADRIEN ORION POVI saw Celeste’s jaw drop in shock as her gaze snapped sharply toward me. I knew she hadn’t expected me to say that to her friend..She was shameless. After betraying me, she still had the guts to bring in another man into her bedroom? However, I didn’t miss how pale her skin suddenly looked, the color draining from her face as if the confrontation had exhausted her. A small knot of worry tightened in my chest, but I refused to show it.Inside me, Alabaz stirred restlessly.“See what you’ve caused?” my wolf growled, glaring at me from the depths of my mind.“What did I do?” I feigned cluelessness, ignoring his accusation.“Look,” he snapped bitterly, baring his teeth. “My mate has been snatched away by others.”My face twisted into a deep frown at his words.“Pick a side, Alabaz. Hazel is our mate. Celeste lied to us.,” I snapped back at him.Alabaz sighed heavily, lowering his head slightly.“Celeste is my mate, and I like her scent,” he admitted grudgingly. “I like
