I Let My Groom Go After 99 Mistakes のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

When I returned to my bedroom, I received a call from someone on the werewolf council. "Ms. Lovel, your application to leave the pack has been processed. As of tomorrow, you'll no longer be a member of the Sable pack. Are you sure you want to leave?" Before I could respond, my phone vibrated again. My mate, Dorian Roumanoff, sent me a message. "Where'd you go? Are you back in your room yet?"I stared blankly at the screen, unaccustomed to his sudden display of concern. I was about to reply when another message came through. "Bring over the moonstone bracelet I gave you. It's part of a set with this necklace. Since I've already given the necklace away, I might as well give Vanya the complete set." I stared at my phone for what felt like an eternity. It had been a month, and he hadn't sent me a single message. He had reached out on his own initiative just to make me give my jewelry to my stepsister, Vanya Lovel. It brought back memories of Vanya's third day at the manor, when Dori

Not long after Dorian left, Vanya appeared at my bedroom door, inspecting my room as if she already owned the place. She was draped in that snow fox cloak, the moonstone necklace nestled against her throat, and the laurel brooch Dorian had just taken was pinned to her chest. Even on her wrist, she wore the moonstone bracelet that was originally mine. "Tiana, are you clearing out your room?"I remained silent. Yet, as if completely oblivious to my cold shoulder, she made herself right at home and walked in. "To be honest, I came here to apologize. Dori keeps giving me things that were meant for you, and it has been quite troubling for me too."Even though she claimed to be troubled, the way she kept running her fingers over the necklace made it clear that she was flaunting it. "I'm sure you won't blame me, right, Tiana? I genuinely didn't mean for this to happen."I remained silent.Vanya let out a soft sigh. "Honestly, I envy you so much, Tiana. Growing up, you had everyone wrapp

The days bled into weeks, and the sentinel squads Dorian had deployed failed to find a single trace of my whereabouts. Dorian's temperament grew increasingly volatile; the usually steadfast Alpha was now constantly snapping at people. He started to return to the manor more frequently, and the moment he crossed the threshold, he would coldly inquire of the housekeepers if I had returned. Everyone in the manor lived in constant fear, terrified that a single mistake might trigger the ticking time bomb that Dorian had become. Early one morning, he sat at the dining table for breakfast. Looking at the empty seat across from him and the neatly placed glass of warm goat's milk, the anger he had bottled up for days exploded. He slammed his fist on the table, his face contorted in anger. "Do you have to serve goat's milk every day just because she likes it? Can't you make a bowl of oatmeal instead?"The housekeeper dared not talk back and hurriedly cleared the milk away, muttering softly u

Dorian had completely run out of patience with Vanya and did his best to avoid her at every turn. In the blink of an eye, another month had come and gone, but the search for me was still drawing a complete blank. One day, Lucas burst into the study with a panicked look on his face. He locked eyes with Dorian and fretted, "Alpha Dorian, Ms. Lovel—"Before he could finish speaking, Dorian, who had been zoning out behind his desk, instantly snapped his head up. His eyes lit up in a heartbeat, and he eagerly cut Lucas off. "Have you found her?"He sprang to his feet, tossing aside all his pride as an Alpha. "Tell her I don't hold anything that happened in the past against her. So long as she's willing to come back, I'll immediately hold our mating ritual again. I promise I'll never neglect her again!"Lucas took in his hopeful demeanor and had no choice but to lower his head. He said lowly, "That's not it, Alpha Dorian. There is still no news of Ms. Lovel. We've already tripled our se

Before long, Vanya was escorted to the study by the housekeepers. Completely oblivious to Dorian's ice-cold demeanor, her smile was bright as she asked, "Are you finally free, Dori? Are you taking me to the auction house today?" Even at this moment, her mind was entirely consumed by thoughts of jewelry, utterly unaware that all her schemes had been thoroughly exposed. Drinking in her hypocritical facade, Dorian snapped. Without a shred of hesitation, he raised his hand and slapped Vanya hard across the face. The sharp crack echoed through the study. Her head snapped to the side, and her cheek instantly swelled up as she stood there completely dumbstruck. Before she could even process what had happened, Dorian reached out and violently shoved the housekeeper, who stood beside them, right in front of Vanya.Vanya looked at the housekeeper in front of her before meeting Dorian's cold gaze. In a heartbeat, all color drained from her face. With a loud thud, she dropped to her knees.
