The Scar He Scorned
I was a genius alchemist, but my mate, Alpha Clark, engineered my failure 99 times, shattering my reputation.
He siphoned my very soul 99 times to gift it to another she-wolf, Layla, molding her into the Alchemy Master I was meant to be.
He claimed Layla was his savior, that he owed her his life.
It wasn't until I uncovered his betrayal and severed our bond that he learned the truth: I was the one who had saved him.
Those scars on my back—the ones he scorned?
They were the price I paid for his life.
After I walked away, he knelt for 99 days, begging for me to return.
But some betrayals can never be forgiven.
