Chapter 1

Alpha Darius Waller left with Raven Snyder and her son, Cole Booker.My daughter, Rachel Waller, and I stood at the door of our temporary home, staring at the mess they had left behind. I couldn't help but frown.Rachel asked sadly, "Mom, can we make it so Dad can never find us again? If they hadn't come, I could have had a happy Full Moon Night."My heart broke when I heard her say that.I kneeled down and gently stroked her cheek. "Then, let's move farther away—to somewhere Dad will never find us."We packed our things again and moved once more.Before leaving, I took one last look at the little place we had tried so hard to turn into a home. I felt bitterness well up inside me.In my past life, Darius' Beta, Michael Booker, died in a pack conflict. That very night, Darius brought Raven and her son home."Raven is my Beta's mate, and Cole is his only child. As the Alpha, taking care of them is my duty. You're the Luna, so you need to be understanding and let them have their w

After I settled Rachel in, I quickly found a job in the pack.With my past experience working in the pack's town hall, I was assigned to the Northern packs' archives department and was tasked with registering supplies.My monthly salary plus patrol subsidies was enough to support both Rachel and me.However, on the third day after I started the job, Darius came to my door with Raven. Frowning, he said, "Why didn't you tell me you moved? I brought some things for Rachel."When I saw the leather satchel in his hand, I almost laughed out loud.That same morning, I had seen Darius at the entrance of the pack market with Raven and Cole. Cole was crying loudly because he wanted to buy some jerky, so Raven comforted him and bought a bag of berries. But Cole suddenly knocked the bag to the ground and threw a big tantrum.The bag Darius held now contained exactly those berries they had picked up from the ground.I held back the sarcasm in my voice and asked, "Is there anything else?"

The next day, I took Rachel back to our old place.From far away, I saw Darius and Raven holding Cole's hands. He was wearing brand-new training armor meant for pups. He ran around and laughed loudly. "Mom, this outfit is so cool!"Raven shot Darius a glance and quietly prompted, "Who bought your armor? What did I say you have to do?"Cole understood her meaning right away. He turned to Darius with excitement and said, "Thanks, Dad!"The word "Dad" made both Rachel and me freeze on the spot.When Darius noticed us, a flash of panic crossed his face. "Selena, listen to me! Let me explain…"Ever since Michael died in battle, Cole has been very unhappy. Today was a rare instance of him taking a liking to this armor, so I used the extra money we had to buy it for him."Extra money we had, huh? He was the one who told me clearly that the money we had was saved for me.Looking at it now, in Darius' eyes, it seemed Rachel and I were the extra baggage.I didn't cry or make a scene. I

The pack's warriors rushed over, shouting loudly.After we were detained, the other Betas kept Rachel and me under guard.Inside the infirmary, the diagnosis was exactly the same as in my previous life—a sharp stone had damaged Cole's eyeball, and they needed to replace it with a healthy one.Darius pushed Rachel forward without any hesitation. "This is my daughter. I agree to use her eyeball as the replacement."The rage I had been suppressing finally burst through the barriers of reason in that moment. I rushed forward and grabbed Darius tightly by the collar."Alpha Darius! Rachel is still so young. What did she ever do wrong? How can you take away her eye? She's your daughter, your own flesh and blood…"Darius pursed his lips. He wore an impatient look, the one he always had when he faced a foolish she-wolf."Cole is my Beta's only pup. As long as I can save his eyes and his future, I'm willing to take Rachel's life if I have to."I stood frozen in place. My voice trembled

Seeing that I was about to leave with Rachel, Darius grew anxious.He stepped forward in one swift motion, blocking our exit. He raised his hand to stop us. "You can't leave. Cole is waiting for a healthy eye transplant. If Rachel doesn't give him her eyes—"Ezra cast a cold, authoritative glance his way and asked quietly, "If Rachel doesn't give him her eye, will that brat go blind?"However, if you actually take her eye, Rachel will be the one who goes blind."Although Darius couldn't fathom how Ezra had survived, he knew instinctively that this was someone he shouldn't mess with.Thus, he tried to guilt-trip me, shifting the pressure onto me. "Selena, you've always been so understanding. You're the Luna. You wouldn't be so selfish as to only think of yourself, would you?"As I stared at the Alpha before me, waves of bitter irony washed through me, even though my heart had long turned to ashes.I met his eyes and suddenly broke into hysterical laughter. My laughter carried all

Darius' expression turned extremely unpleasant.Raven suddenly rushed out, shouting anxiously, "How could you take Darius' eye? He's the Alpha! His eyes serve a greater purpose. Your daughter—"I laughed out loud and retorted, "What about my daughter? Darius and your son are werewolves, but Rachel isn't one. I refuse to let my daughter donate her eye. Since you won't let Darius donate his, then Cole can go blind."At that moment, Ezra stepped forward. He swept a contemptuous glance at Darius and said, "Rachel is still a pup. The law clearly states that minors are prohibited from organ transplants, even with parental consent."Darius, surely you haven't grown so accustomed to wielding power in this pack that you think you, an Alpha, are above the law?"Ezra pulled Rachel and me close, shielding us. "Selena is right. You can't decide to transplant Rachel's eye. However, you can choose to transplant your own. What's the matter? It's easy to be generous with another's things, but it's

Darius had thought the same. Unfortunately, he was wrong. After losing his eye, he became completely disabled and could no longer serve as the pack's Alpha.He left the infirmary in the morning, and by that afternoon, Raven had already left with Cole. Before she left, she cleaned out everything in the house.At the time, Darius's eye hadn't fully healed yet.Word was that, to save money for Cole's sake, Darius had left the infirmary in a hurry before his wound had even healed.Later on, the wound became infected, causing his eye to itch and ache. He fumbled his way home, hoping Raven would take him back to the healer for a checkup.But all his hands reached out to was emptiness and cold.At first, Darius didn't understand why they had left. He had arranged a job for Raven earlier, so he went to her workplace to find her.That was when he overheard Raven and Cole talking."Mom, what if Dad comes looking for us? He's blind now and has no money. He's not the Alpha anymore, and he

The fallout from this incident was severe, and the Alpha King delivered his judgment swiftly.Darius had falsified pack records to help Raven and Cole fraudulently claim a fallen warrior's compensation. His actions were deemed utterly reprehensible, and he lost his Alpha position.The Elder Council also reviewed Raven's case and suspended all benefits for her and Cole. The job Darius had arranged for her was gone, too.Darius, Raven, and her nightmare of a son instantly became the most despised outcasts in the pack.I heard that, on the day the sentence was handed down, Cole lunged at Darius, kicking and hitting him."You blind cripple! This is all your fault!"Then, he clung to Raven's leg, whining and crying, "Mom, I want jerky! I don't want to eat potatoes! You promised you'd buy it for me as long as I called him 'Dad!'"Raven's face went ashen with fear.The Council then became suspicious that she had encouraged Cole to poison Michael. She was placed under investigation, wi

Meanwhile, I finally learned the full truth of what happened to Ezra back then."The ferry I was supposed to take was indeed ambushed by the Shadow Pack that day. But when I reached the snowy highlands, thanks to the Moon Goddess' favor, I switched to another ferry at the last moment and masked my presence."After returning to the kingdom, we determined that letting me appear dead in that attack was likely the best course of action."So, I hid my name and went south…"Ezra's eyes grew wet as he spoke. He held my hand and Rachel's tightly."This involved the highest secrets of the kingdom, and I had no way to contact the outside. I couldn't tell you I was still alive."I never imagined that when we finally reunited, I would see you and Rachel being bullied like this."Vaguely, I felt something was off. In my past life, until Rachel and I starved to death, there was never any word from Ezra. Why had he returned early this time and changed our fate?Unless…It wasn't until I sa

Chapter 10

Darius died soon after.When Raven and Cole left, they had taken everything he owned, and spending what little he had left to buy things for Rachel had drained his last savings.The pack had also taken back the house he had been given. Just like Rachel and I had lived in our past life, he was left to wander the frozen wilderness and sleep out in the open.I heard he got so hungry that he tried to fight with Rogues for food. They mauled him everywhere, and he collapsed in the snow. He spent the night there and eventually froze to death.Darius' death didn't cause much of a stir in the pack. The pack members would mention him in passing—how a former Alpha had fallen from grace and met such a miserable end—but their attention would quickly shift to the next story.After all, this was the harsh reality of the werewolf world. The weak and defeated didn't command attention for long.By the time they found Darius' body, it was frozen solid, like a stone abandoned in the wilderness.Wit
