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

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

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

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

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
