Ella walked up to me, took my hand, and said coquettishly, “Celine, it’s good that you’re not mad.”It was then that Leon noticed she wasn’t wearing shoes. He shoved past me and hurried over, lifting her into his arms.His tone turned urgent and stern.“You’re not in good health, and you’re running around barefoot? Do you have a death wish?”A few memories flashed through my mind.At the start of the month, my heat had been so painful I curled up in bed, begging Leon to help me buy suppressants and painkillers.However, he’d only frown.“I’m an Alpha. How can I go out and buy that kind of thing?“You were the one who dismissed all the servants. And now you expect me to do things for you?“Every she-wolf goes through this. Just endure it. Why make it such a hassle?”When I came to myself, Leon was already carrying Ella into the bedroom.I withdrew my gaze, forcing down the faint ache in my chest. Then I picked up my phone and contacted the Beta who had been trying to recruit

I was halfway through packing when Leon came back.He tossed a half-full brown bottle at me.“Got you some medicine.”I picked it up. I had seen this bottle before. In Ella’s post, Leon had used it to treat her wound.However, I was allergic to this medicine.When Leon was eighteen, his talent already set him apart.The other werewolves in the pack grew displeased with him and deliberately had rogues to cripple his hands.Back then, I had thrown myself in front of him without a second thought.I was only lightly injured, but a servant used this exact medicine to disinfect my wound.I went into an anaphylactic shock right then and was rushed to the treatment room, only waking up after nearly a full day.The Beta told me later that Leon had spent however long I was there, crying.After that, he flew into a rage. He threw out every bottle of this medicine in the pack and forbade it from ever appearing again.Now, he was the one who broke that rule.I lowered my gaze and tos

When he finally reached me using a friend’s phone, his voice was clearly tired.“Celine, you win.“Because of the scandal you exposed, Ella is completely ruined, and the pack’s development has been affected.“Come back and hold a press conference with me. Then I’ll mark you immediately.“That should satisfy you, right?”For a moment, I wondered if something was wrong with Leon’s brain.How else could he still not understand?I almost laughed from anger.“Leon, we're done.“Just assume I did all of it. We’re over. Stop bothering me!”Jace was beside me. Seeing my expression, he asked with concern.His voice carried through the call, and Leon’s tone instantly turned furious.“Who are you with right now?!“Why is there another wolf’s voice? Is that why you betrayed me?!”I didn’t bother saying another word and hung up.Former colleagues occasionally sent me updates.Leon didn’t even look at the new secretary before firing her.Ella, on the other hand, was suspended by the

Leon lost the match, but the fallout kept spreading.The afternoon duel wasn’t an official trial, so many spectators livestreamed or uploaded clips.Soon, the entire kingdom saw Leon’s defeat.The war-god image he had maintained for years shattered overnight. Combined with the recent scandal, his and the pack's reputation fell to rock bottom. Many allied packs publicly cut ties.In contrast, Jace became the kingdom’s rising Alpha.As his secretary, I was also approached by many packs seeking cooperation.Looking at the news, I didn’t feel satisfaction, only a quiet sense of irony.That night, when I returned to my apartment, I saw Leon downstairs, crouched by the bushes, drunk.When he saw me, he stood and tried to approach.I instinctively stepped back.Leon froze, then looked up at me, eyes filled with sorrow.“Even you look down on me now, don’t you?”“No. I just don’t want anything to do with you anymore.”After saying that, I tried to walk past him.However, he grabb
