All Chapters of Love Me After I Die: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Right then, Dad frowned and instinctively reached for his right leg.An old comrade noticed his movement and asked, "Is your old injury acting up again?"Dad answered without thinking. "It's nothing. I just took the herbs Lana found for me."Right after he said that, he froze.The daughter they constantly called rebellious had actually remembered the chronic injury he had suffered in battle years ago.His old comrade patted him on the back."You should spend more time caring about Lana. After all, she's your own flesh and blood."Dad disagreed immediately."A few days ago, Eve kept hoping Lana would come support her during the werewolf aptitude evaluation, but Lana never showed up."She broke her promise and ruined Eve's concentration. That's why Eve only earned a B grade."Lana often disappears for ten days or even over two weeks at a time. She could die somewhere and nobody would even know. Her mom and I have tried so hard to raise her, yet she turned out rotten!"Hearing

Mom handed the wolfsbane-venom-corroded piece of paper to the inspection department before rubbing her temples."I hope they can restore whatever's written on it. You reminded Eve to lock the doors and windows at home, didn't you?"Dad nodded, but then he hesitated before speaking."Lana still isn't answering her phone. She hasn't replied to Lucian's messages either. Do you think she might actually be in danger? Maybe I should have someone look for her."Mom cut him off impatiently."Enough! She's hiding on purpose. If we go looking for her, we'll only be playing right into her hands. Have you forgotten what she did last time?"She just doesn't want to attend Eve's competition. I already had Lucian warn her. By tomorrow at the latest, she'll come crawling back to apologize!"The 'last time' Mom referred to was when Eve trapped me inside a cave in the mountains behind the pack territory.I clawed through piles of broken boulders with all my strength until my hands were covered i

My tongue had already been cut out. I couldn't make a sound.Yet Dad never noticed anything was wrong."Quit pretending to be dead. We never should've brought you back in the first place!"Meanwhile, Mom slowly walked toward the blood-soaked stone bed where I had been tortured.Tears streamed down her face and fell onto my dried blood.I tilted my head in confusion as I watched her.It was the first time Mom had ever cried because of me.Dad took a deep breath and forced himself to remain calm. After putting on protective gloves, he picked up the bloodstained leather journal lying on the stone platform.The instant he opened it, his eyes went wide.The journal was filled with photographs of Eve. Every photo was accompanied by detailed notes recording where she had been and when she had appeared there.Yet, the one who died was me.Dad looked shocked briefly. Clearly, he had figured it out.Breathing heavily, he slowly crouched to the ground.Tears of regret rolled down his

That night, Dad forced me to kneel all night as punishment.If Lucian hadn't pleaded with him repeatedly, I never would've been allowed back to my room at dawn.Through that incident, Eve fully realized where she and I stood in my parents' hearts. From then on, she became even more brazen.Whenever she practiced hunting, she forced me to play the prey.With the sharpened claws she'd deliberately filed to razor points, she slashed me again and again.She'd then run to my parents in tears, complaining that I refused to cooperate with her training.My parents believed everything she said. What awaited me was always another round of punishment and harsh scolding.The moment Lucian learned of my death, he rushed back to the pack.When he arrived home, my parents were sitting on the bed with grief-stricken expressions on their faces while they looked at my photos and cried silently.Beside them, Eve dabbed at her tear-filled eyes and sniffled softly."Lucian, you're finally back. L

"William and Helen, what a perfect couple."When you killed my little brother, did you ever imagine this day would come?"Mom demanded through agonizing tears, "Your brother murdered another werewolf! He deserved to die! What did Lana ever have to do with it?"The more devastated my parents looked, the more exhilarated Ian became."The greatest crime she committed was being born as your daughter."Do you remember what you told her before she died? You said you regretted bringing her home. You said she didn't deserve to be your daughter."She would've died with everlasting resentment. But luckily, I gouged out her eyes. In a way, I did her a favor."His grin widened. "As expected of your biological daughter, she was tougher than I expected. I flayed her alive, ripped out her tendons, and carved away pieces of her flesh one by one. She never even screamed once."She just kept saying how amazing her parents were. She believed you'd avenge her."She wouldn't stop talking, so I rip
