My son, Jasper Cole, won the gold prize in an art competition. When I took off my apron and rushed to the award ceremony, I found that the painting titled 'Mother' was not of me but Maeve Leighton, my husband's secretary. Maeve pretended to be troubled as she told my son, "Your mom will be sad when she sees this painting." However, Jasper was unperturbed. "What does her sadness have to do with me? She's an ordinary-looking and incompetent housewife, always nagging me about what I can and can’t do. She's too strict with me. It's annoying! Maeve, I wish you were my mother. My dad doesn't like my mom at all. He's only happy when he's with you. He's only with my mom because he feels obligated." My heart broke at that moment. Since he no longer wanted me as his mother, it was pointless for me to stay. I called my dad. "Dad, I want to go home. Can you pick me up?" My dad could not believe it. He answered after a long pause, "Of course. I'll come pick up my brilliant daughter in three days."

I kept it hidden from the entire Moonshadow Pack — the private mate contract I signed with Darren, the current Alpha. Every time he rushed off to spend the heat season with his Omega childhood sweetheart, the wolf inside me howled in agony, tearing itself apart. Every time, he would whisper his empty promises, "Once she's stable, we'll hold the Luna crowning ceremony." For three years, he made that promise ninety-nine times — and skipped the ceremony ninety-nine times. The first time, her wolf died unexpectedly, and he claimed the Moon Goddess had forbidden the ceremony. The second time, her heat struck suddenly, and he abandoned me, throwing himself into her bed. After that, every time there was supposed to be a ceremony, something happened to her — and somehow, he was always right there by her side. Every time, I broke down, screaming, drowning in heartbreak. However, he always looked down on me, his voice calm, detached: "She's just a temporary mate for physical needs. You should understand." After the ninety-ninth broken promise, the wolf inside me finally went silent. I placed a "Mate Contract Termination Application" on his desk. "From now on, in the eyes of the Moon Goddess, I'm no longer yours in any way."

"I'm a stripper, so what?" "You dare speak to me like that?" Ryan growled. "You ungrateful, good-for-nothing, wretched stripper." "You have no right to judge me. You're only privileged by luck."

But as her life finally seems to come together, shadows from the past threaten to tear it apart.

1. Meski rindu ini terus datang menyapa, aku masih berharap untuk bisa melepaskan rindu ini. Denganmu aku tahu, bahwa bahagia ternyata sesederhana ini Ah.. menghirup harum petrikor di tengah Musim hujan yang sejuk ini mengembalikanku akan kenangan tiga tahun lalu. Sudah selama itu tapi rasanya masih melekat dalam benakku. Gadis manis dengan surai coklat dan mata hazelnya menghantui pikiranku. Entah magic apa yang ia lakukan padaku aku tidak bisa berhenti memikirkannya. Tak tau berapa lama aku duduk di cafe Moidef, disebelah meja yang di atasnya terdapat 3 cangkir kosong yang tadinya berisi kopi pagi ini, kalau ada dia pasti dia akan memarahiku. Aku tersenyum mengingat itu. Tak ingin terlarut dalam angan, aku segera melihat jam di tangan ku yang telah menunjukkan angka tiga . Ah... jam tiga di musim hujan. Jam tiga. Aku dan dia. Di tengah sejuknya udara sehabis hujan turun. Tak ayal ingatanku kembali pada kilas masa lalu. Surabaya, 15 desember 2017 "Ayo tambahin kecepatannya dong...!" Teriak nya.

In my last life, I made the dumbest mistake—picked up a Moonlight Ring from the grass. That cursed thing locked me into a mate bond with Silvermoon Pack's Alpha. Too bad his heart already belonged to my sister, Irene. She lived to a hundred, had five pups with her real mate in Ravenshade Pack while I rotted. Every time she got cozy with her mate, Leon tossed me in the basement. "You picked up that ring! I had to watch my true love build a family with someone else!" For eighty years, she lived happily. I barely lived at all. Leon flayed me open, let my skin grow back, then crushed my bones just to watch them heal. Every day felt like dying on repeat. Only when Irene finally kicked the bucket did he let me go. Then boom—I woke up, right back on the day I picked up that damn ring. I wasn't gonna screw it up again. But Irene—always the clean freak—snatched it off the ground before I could stop her.

"You said you leave when there's nothing left for you to do so what if I gave you a reason to stay?"
