My parents died saving Jason.
He was supposed to be my mate.
But when Jason finally woke up, he had lost his memories and believed my best friend Laurent was his mate.
The healer told me that once his inner wolf recovered, his memories would return.
So I waited.
For six months, I watched Laurent take my place beside him while I endured the pain of our neglected Mate Bond, praying every day that Jason would remember me.
Until one day, outside the healer's room, I overheard their conversation.
“Alpha, your memories returned three months ago. Why haven't you told Lyra?”
Jason was silent for a moment.
Then he said,
“Because I don't want to go back. I remember Lyra. I remember her parents dying to save me. But even after remembering everything... I still choose Laurent.”
I froze outside the door.
Three months.
He had remembered me for three whole months.
He hadn't forgotten our love. He had simply been pretending.
And while I was waiting for my Alpha to remember me, he was trying to throw me out of the Central Castle for his pregnant new Luna.
I left without a word.
What he didn't know was that the Central Castle and half of Silvermoon Pack’s core territory belonged to me.
