Chapter 1

A quiet sobbing sound came from inside the room.I realized then that Serana Allen was also in the room. She was curled up on the leather couch, her eyes red from crying."Trey, I'm not worth you risking everything for me. Danny will kill you."Trey Sutton, my mate and the Alpha of the Sawyer pack, gently wiped away her tears with his thumb. In a voice softer than I'd ever known it to be, he said, "The Gronya pack stands on equal footing with us. If he chooses to strike, he has to consider the future of his entire pack. So, don't worry."Then, he chuckled and pulled Serana into his arms by the waist. "If you really feel bad, just give me lots of pups in the future. That'll be enough for repayment."Laughter and whistles filled the room.Serana's face turned bright red as she buried herself in his chest, too embarrassed to look up. "But Leah…""Leah?" Trey scoffed, sounding indifferent. "She loves me to the point of obsession. Even if she finds out about this, I'll just coax her

When Trey came out of the room, the rain hadn't stopped.I had been sitting on the couch in the main hall.When Trey saw me, he immediately let go of Serana's hand. "Are you here to see me?"I nodded and made up an excuse. "The rain's too heavy. I was just passing by to take shelter."My gaze shifted to the wolves behind him, including Beta Jenson Fletcher and Serana. Their expressions were impassive. None of them explained why Serana was there, nor did they show any hint of guilt.They all knew that when it came to Trey, I would eventually give in.Trey naturally took my hand and rubbed it between his palms to warm me up from the chill of the rainy night."You said you liked that limited edition green crystal bracelet from the neutral zone, right? I made a trip there and forgot to tell you in advance.""Where's the bracelet?" I asked directly.His gaze drifted instinctively to Serana. "It had to be custom-made. I altered the design myself, so... you'll probably have to wait u

Chapter 3

Serana's face was streaked with tears. A group of she-wolves from wealthy packs were shoving and pushing her.With hands balled into tight fists and a jaw tight with tension, Trey stared fixedly toward the second floor.But in the end, he didn't go up. Instead, he turned toward me.I knew he wanted me to clean up the mess for Serana again.This wasn't the first time.Serana was slender and had long legs. She knew how to play weak in front of male wolves, making her quite popular among them.Naturally, there were plenty of she-wolves who didn't like her.Once, she'd been pushed into an ice lake, and Trey had jumped in without a second thought, rescuing her despite the cold.Since then, whenever Serana got into trouble, he was always the first to show up.The places where he couldn't appear, I had to handle.After Danny Gardner, the Alpha of the Gronya pack, had made it known that he intended to take Serana back to the Gronya Pack, those who were already jealous of her had gott

Chapter 4

As I left the auction center, a beautiful green diamond was just starting to be auctioned off.But I didn't care anymore.After all, my bonding ceremony had already been unilaterally canceled by Trey.Whether the veil had the main diamond or not didn't matter anymore.However, just as I left the auction center, Trey stopped me.He grabbed my wrist with such force that it felt like he was going to crush my bones. "Serana's hurt. You need to apologize to her."I jerked my arm free and met his cold gaze before speaking each word slowly. "I told you, I didn't push her. Why should I apologize?""I only believe what I see with my own eyes." Trey's voice was low and dark. "Leah, don't push me."With that, he pulled a grayish bone whistle from his chest.It was Dad's keepsake.After the Gram pack was destroyed, this bone whistle had been the last thing he left me.My heart sank. "You're going to use it to threaten me?""It's not a threat."Trey stared at me, his voice cold and har

Chapter 5

As I followed Danny out the door, Trey was already surrounded by the Gronya pack's guards.It was clear that Danny wasn't happy about the interruption to his peaceful night. The anger in his eyes was barely contained. "Who gave you the nerve to invade my territory?"Trey's eyes were bloodshot as he fixed his gaze on the mark on my neck that was still faintly red. "Give Leah back to me."Before he could say another word, Danny stepped forward and grabbed him by the throat."You're the one who sent her to me last night. Now you come to take her back? Do you even deserve her?"Trey's face was turning blue, but he still looked at me. "Leah, come back with me. I can explain.""Explain what?" I walked down the steps, my voice icy. "Explain why you used my dad's bone whistle to force me to kneel? Or explain why you marked another she-wolf during my bonding ceremony?"Trey's lips moved, like he wanted to say something.But I didn't give him the chance."Haven't you told enough lies ye

Chapter 6

The next morning, Evan delivered his findings. It was a charred topographical map."It was found inside the stone house," he said quietly. "This is the guard map of the Gram pack."As I stared at the burned map, an unsettling feeling grew in my chest.At that exact moment, Trey appeared again.As he stepped into the front hall, the dark circles under his eyes were impossible to miss. It looked as though he hadn't slept a wink all night.The moment he saw the mark on my neck, his Adam's apple bobbed visibly."Leah, I need to speak with you alone.""That's not necessary," I replied without moving from my seat. "You can say it here."He seemed to be suppressing something as he pulled out an auction receipt and placed it on the table. "I wanted to buy the green diamond for you."I glanced at it briefly, and a sudden sense of irony washed over me. "So?""Leah, I know you're angry with me," he rasped. "But you should know that I never actually intended to let you go. I just—""You

Chapter 7

The air in the stone house felt frozen, thick with tension.I bent down and picked up the letter. The paper was rough, its edges frayed, but the words on it were sharp. Each stroke of the pen felt like a blade thrusting into my chest.Trey finally snapped out of his daze and stepped forward urgently. "Leah, I only found out about this later!"His voice was hoarse. "My dad did those things! It wasn't me!""But you knew, and you still didn't tell me," I replied softly as I looked at him. "Trey, your greatest sin isn't what your father did. It's the fact that you knew I considered you my only family, and you still lied to me."I raised my head. My voice was soft but resolute as I said, "Go to the neutral zone and notify the Elders' Council."The room fell completely silent.Trey seemed to be struck dumb. He lunged at me. "Leah, you can't do this! If you bring the Elders' Council in, the Sawyer pack will be finished!"Danny moved swiftly, kicking him back against the wall."Finish

Chapter 8

I nodded and stepped into the snow outside the neutral zone.The cold wind rushed into my collar, like that night 15 years ago when the Gram pack fell.Trey stood not far away with his back straight, but there was no longer the towering arrogance that once radiated from him.I thought of Mom's trembling hands when she shoved me into the basement, of Dad's back standing in the doorway, and of the trust and love I had handed over to my enemies over the years.An apology couldn't erase that.Moonlight poured over the snow, like a layer of cold salt.He looked at me, his eyes clouded with exhaustion, shame, and a flash of belated pain."Leah." His voice was carried by the wind. "Must it come to this?"I didn't answer.What answered him was the soft snap of my bones as I stretched. The next second, I shifted into my wolf form in the snow.A collective gasp echoed from the sidelines.Even I froze for a moment.It had been years since I had shifted into my wolf form so smoothly.

Chapter 9

As I looked at Trey, I felt nothing but absurdity. "But the wolves of the Gram pack never got a chance to regret."With those words, I lifted Dad's bone whistle and slammed it heavily into the snow at his feet."From today on, you're no longer worthy to even speak my name. You'll live with these wounds and watch the Sawyer pack fall apart. Winterbrook is gone, your reputation is gone, and even the Alpha position you cherish so much will never be yours again."I lifted my front paw and stomped down hard on his spine, pressing him deeper into the snow.At that moment, a flood of images passed through my mind— the fire that consumed the Gram pack that night, Dad's dying roar, the 15 years I spent living like an outsider in the Sawyer pack, the shattered green crystal, and Trey's repeated lies that made me sick.Then, I bit through his throat.Trey's agonizing howl rang out in the snowy night but quickly faded into weakness.I didn't sever his throat completely.I wanted him alive,
