Chapter 1

Diya's POVLeaving outright wouldn't work. Ryan Crowley and the pack would never let me take his pup away without a fight. I had to plan my next move carefully.Ryan hadn't sent me a single message since the banquet. He didn't show up at our house until the following evening, looking worn out.He slipped his arms around me with practiced ease and apologized, "Kian ate too much cake last night. He was restless all night and wouldn't go to sleep unless I stayed with him. I'm sorry I didn't come over."Odile Sloan's scent hit me again, strong enough to fill my nose. At first, I had only caught a trace of it on his cuffs. Now, I could smell it all over him as he held me.My stomach turned, and I clenched my jaw. I barely heard a word of his excuse. "I see." I pressed a hand against his chest and quickly pushed him away.Ryan stared at me for a moment, seemingly caught off guard by my reaction.Knowing he was in the wrong, he smiled and shook the box. "Look! I brought your favorite

Chapter 2

Diya's POVAt the first sound in the hallway, Hugh ran to the door.But the footsteps stopped next door. He slowly sat back down and pulled the box of building blocks closer to his chest.By afternoon, his food had already been reheated twice. I crouched in front of him. "Sweetheart, let's eat first. When your dad gets here, I'll open the door for you."Hugh shook his head and scooted over to make room for me. "Mommy, let's eat here. That way, we can open the door faster."Someone suddenly knocked. Hugh jumped up excitedly and rushed to open the door. "Uncle Ryan, you're here!"A uniformed werewolf stood outside. "Ms. Wilder sent me to bring you to the estate."Nancy Wilder was Ryan's mother and the former Luna."Is Grandmother taking us to see Uncle Ryan?" Hugh asked, his eyes lighting up as he looked at me.I couldn't bring myself to tell him no.Maybe Ryan would be there. He could at least spend one last evening building blocks with Hugh.I drove Hugh to the estate. A h

Chapter 3

Diya's POVI was about to answer Hugh when a shadow fell over us.It was Ryan. With a grim expression, he pulled me aside and said, "Didn't I tell you not to bring Hugh here? Why won't you listen?"I forcefully shook off his hand and retorted sarcastically, "Nancy invited us. If we hadn't come, I wouldn't have known you had given the outfit Hugh picked out to someone else to wear."Ryan avoided my gaze and cleared his throat. "I don't know how Kian found it. I had clearly hidden it away."He reached out and gently squeezed my fingers. "I didn't do it on purpose. How about we go pick out another outfit next time? I'll even buy ten sets if that's what you want.""When is this 'next time'? You promised Hugh yesterday that you'd build blocks with him, but it's almost dark, and you still haven't come." I shot back.Ryan furrowed his brows. "I'll go in a little while. I just can't get away right now. You know that.""You're always telling us to wait. I've had enough of that!" I sna

Chapter 4

Diya's POVI got up and slapped Ryan hard. "Is it so hard to listen to Hugh and check if there's a chip on the necklace? He's your pup. How could you be so cruel to him?"Ryan rubbed his cheek, his voice full of anger. "What the hell is wrong with you? Have you lost it?""What's wrong with me?" I struggled to catch my breath. "You're right. I've lost it. You're his father, yet you refuse to acknowledge him and make him call you his uncle instead. How am I supposed to stay calm?"I turned to Odile, who was watching. "And you. You must be pretty pleased with yourself."I laughed. "You've enjoyed sleeping with your mate's younger brother all these years, haven't you?"Panic flickered in Odile's eyes. She looked worried, not shocked.I stared at her. "You got your memory back a long time ago, didn't you?"Odile grew even more anxious. Then she clutched her chest as if she were about to faint. "Alpha Ryan, what is she talking about? Is Hugh really your pup?""Is what she said true?

Chapter 5

Third-Person POVRyan spotted a mess of tire tracks beside a broken guardrail and slammed on the brakes.He walked over and ran his hand along the broken edge. The damage was fresh.Ryan took a deep breath as a terrible thought crossed his mind."Send a team to my location. Get every helicopter here. Search every inch of the area below the mountain. Find Diya and Hugh!"His hand trembled as he gripped his phone.Ryan looked down past the guardrail. All he could see was a thick stretch of green forest. He had once admired the view, but now he feared what might be hidden below.His wolf urged him to find them. "Go! Hurry!""Shut up! I'll find them. I don't believe this. Nothing could have happened to them!" Ryan punched the car window."Diya must be angry because I said I'd send Hugh to an orphanage. That's why she won't answer my calls. Yes, that has to be it!" Ryan muttered to himself as he started the car again.Suddenly, the car slammed into the mountainside. He slumped in

Chapter 6

Third-Person POVOdile knocked on the door, but no one answered. She ordered her men to break down the door and went inside.Ryan heard the noise and bared his claws. He shouted, "Get the hell out if you want to live!"Odile went pale. She had never expected Ryan to treat her this way.Holding back her anger, she said, "Ryan, the pack's problems are piling up. You've shut yourself away for days. You need to deal with them."Ryan ignored her and dug his claws deep into the wall. "Get out."Odile stayed put and tried again. "Kian and I are still waiting for you. Are you really going to abandon us too just because of Diya and Hugh?"Ryan roared, "Don't compare yourself and Kian to my mate and pup!"Odile went pale, then raised her voice. "You weren't this upset when Mark died!"The sound of scratching stopped.Ryan stared at Odile. "Mark?"Odile gripped her sleeve, then put on a confused look. "What did I just say? My head is starting to hurt again. Ryan, please come help me."

Chapter 7

Third-Person POVRyan sat on the edge of the bed, surrounded by empty liquor bottles.Nancy reached for him, but he raised a hand to stop her, as if he feared she might damage something."Don't touch it," he said.Nancy looked down and saw him holding a building block. He kept trying to fit it into place, but each time he let go, it fell over."Please leave," Ryan said.Nancy fought back her tears. "The pack needs you.""Tell them to find someone else."…Ryan stayed in that room for the next few days. He ignored the paperwork brought to him and refused to see anyone who came to visit.Only when he heard a pup's voice outside did he look up at once and hurry to the door. But as soon as he saw who it was, he turned and went back inside.Nancy came several more times. Whenever she brought up his position as Alpha, he shut the door on her.When she warned him that Odile's father might use the chance to turn against him, Ryan didn't even look up.The last time, she brought him

Chapter 8

Diya's POVMom's shoulders were covered in snow. She must have been waiting out in the cold ever since she heard I was coming home.She had waited for me like this ever since I was a pup. Every time I came home and saw her nose red from the cold, I got upset. She always soothed me. "I'm not cold. I just want to be the first to see you come home."When I looked up from Mom's arms, her nose was still red from the wind. Before I could feel angry, tears began to fall.Dad had been stern, but when he saw me cry, he hurried over and hugged Mom and me. He gently patted my back, trying to comfort me as he had when I was still a pup.After everything he had been through, Hugh stayed close to me. He was too shy to approach Mom and Dad.And so, Hugh and I settled into life at Mom and Dad's place.When we first came home, Hugh clung to my clothes and followed me everywhere. He was so shy he couldn't even call Mom and Dad "Grandma" and "Grandpa".Mom brought him snacks every day and kept

Chapter 9

Diya's POVAs I helped Hugh get ready for bed, he looked up at me and asked, "Mommy, are you becoming the Alpha Female soon?"I smiled at him. "That's right. My succession ceremony is the day after tomorrow. My friends will be here soon to help us pick out our clothes."Hugh jumped with joy when I confirmed it. "Yay! I want clothes in the same color as yours, Mommy. Then everyone will know I'm your pup when I walk beside you."Mom and Dad heard us and came over.Mom teased him, "Then why not wear the same clothes as your mom?"Hugh gave her a sweet smile. "Mommy is the star of the day. I want her to wear the prettiest clothes there. It's enough for me to wear the same color."We couldn't help laughing at the way he spoke like he was all grown up.…Soon, the day of the succession ceremony arrived.Ryan came to the ceremony on behalf of his pack. In the hallway, he ran into Hugh.Ryan crouched down, his voice shaking. "Hugh, is that really you? You and Diya are alive! Thank g
