《After Leaving My Alpha, I Married the Alpha King》全部章節：第 1 章 - 第 10 章

For generations, we she-wolves born into the Frostmoon Pack have never been free to choose whom we bond with.When a Frostmoon Omega comes of age, the pack chooses the Alpha best suited to her based on bloodline, territory, and the interests of both packs.The Alpha chosen for me was Lucas Grant, future Alpha of the Blackstone Pack.According to our centuries-old tradition, I was expected to bond with him without question.But my parents, who had always put pack duty above everything else, urged me for the first time to defy the arrangement.My mother, Claire Reed, said, "I don't see any love in the way he looks at you. Not even a hint of affection. Even his wolf rejects you."My father, Daniel Reed, was more blunt."Throughout the negotiations, Lucas only cared about what we could offer his pack. He never asked what you wanted."At the final meeting before the bonding ceremony, my father even told me that if I refused the arrangement, he would accept whatever consequences came from br

I pulled the claw-pierced severance agreement from the cabinet and slipped it back into the folder.As long as my signature remained intact, the agreement was still valid.I turned toward the door."Drop the wounded martyr act."Lucas's voice followed me."This bond between us has always been an exchange. Frostmoon gives Blackstone stronger pups and medical resources. Blackstone gives you status and protection. What made you think bonding with you meant I had to love you?"I'd almost reached the door when Lucas spoke again."An arranged bond doesn't mean I have to love you. And it certainly doesn't mean I have to be faithful."I gripped the folder until its edge dug into my palm.I'd heard those words in one form or another countless times over the past ten years.But never had he said them so plainly."Why are you acting like you've been wronged?" he continued. "I told you before we bonded that I didn't want a mate who spent all her time following me around."When I had Council meetin

The cold woke me.The moment I moved, my blood-soaked skirt clung to my legs. The lights outside the window had shifted while I was unconscious, and the blood beneath me had long since gone cold.Everything that had happened before I passed out came rushing back.Lucas had said he'd have someone call a doctor.But there was no doctor. No one had come at all.I placed a trembling hand over my belly.There was nothing. No movement. No response.My wolf was curled up deep inside me, refusing to lift its head no matter how many times I called to it. Hours of blood loss had left it weak, and Vivian's attack had wounded it in a way that would never fully heal.I gripped the edge of the bed and, after several attempts, finally managed to sit up.A trail of blood stretched across the carpet and out into the hallway. Using the wall for support, I slowly made my way toward the elevator.At the end of the hallway, the door to Vivian's room was slightly ajar."Still not feeling well?"Lucas's voic

Lucas's POV:I didn't sleep at all that night.Vivian lay beside me, but the heavy scent of moonlure coming from her only made me more restless.My wolf paced inside me, letting out low growls at the door again and again.For the past ten years, whenever Evelyn was home, her faint scent had lingered everywhere.I'd always found it irritating.But now that her scent was completely gone, my wolf was more agitated than ever.By three in the morning, I couldn't take it anymore and got out of bed.The east guest room was empty.As soon as I turned on the lights, I saw a large patch of dried blood beside the bed.A broken trail of blood stretched from the room, along the hallway, and all the way to the elevator.Only then did it hit me—I had never actually called a doctor for her.I'd simply said I would and carried Vivian away.The butler hadn't been on the penthouse floor that night, and without a direct order from me, the guards would never enter the Alpha's residence.Evelyn had been lef

Lucas's POV:For the next three days, I tried again and again to reach Evelyn through our private mind-link.She never answered.Her presence in Blackstone's mind-link grew fainter and fainter. When the last trace of her finally faded away, I could no longer sense her anywhere in the network.Officially leaving Blackstone still required a ruling from the court, but Evelyn had already severed every connection she could on her own.I retraced the trail of blood through the penthouse, following every step she'd taken that night.The butler had already cleaned the carpet and walls, but my wolf could still pick up the scents left behind.Evelyn hadn't left calmly that night.She'd stumbled out of the guest room, using the wall to support herself. When she reached Vivian's door, she'd stopped there for a long time. Then she'd dragged herself toward the elevator, leaving blood behind with every step.I traced her last treatment record to White Birch Hospital.The doctor who had treated her he
