Seorang gadis menatap beberapa orang di depan rumahnya dengan tajam. "Gue kecewa sama kalian... " ucapnya lirih. "Kita cuman mau minta-" "Jangan pernah meminta maaf, jika kalian tetap akan mengulangi kesalahan yang sama," ucapnya sambil menelusuri satu persatu orang di depannya. Dan tatapannya berhenti kepada seorang gadis yang berdiri di bagian pojok kirinya dengan tatapan angkuh. Dia menatap orang tadi layaknya menatap sebuah sampah, "Lo tahu, sebuah sampah tidak akan pernah bisa menggantikan permata. Tidak perlu alasan untuk menjelaskannya, seorang anak berumur 6 tahun pun akan tahu." "Pergi dan jangan pernah kembali," ucapnya sebelum kembali memasuki rumahnya "karena semakin lama gue melihat kalian, semakin susah gue melupakan kejadian itu...dan gue akan semakin sulit untuk membenci kalian."

Jack's first love, Alice, came in for her prenatal checkup. Tested positive for Corrosion Sickness. I told him right away. But Jack insisted I was spouting nonsense and went around the pack slandering me—claiming I had no medical ethics, that my surgical skills were a joke, and that I’d killed a fellow werewolf through malpractice. Because of him, the Werewolf Medical Association revoked my healer title, and I was nearly torn apart by the patient’s furious family! On our third mating anniversary, Jack sank silver into my veins. I begged him to save me, but he locked me in a cellar and left me there to die. "Just die already," he said. "I need your estate to have marking ceremony with Alice." The next second, I opened my eyes—I wasn’t dead. I was reborn! I was reborn on the day Alice came in for her prenatal checkup! This time, I won’t tell him the truth. I’m leaving that scumbag behind! Let him and Alice enjoy their filthy love!

Luca's expression turned serious. "What's going on, Isabella? You can tell me anything." Isabella took a deep breath before blurting out the truth. "I'm pregnant, Luca." The room fell silent. Luca's eyes widened in shock. Isabella continued, her voice shaking. "And the father... is Vincent Moreno." Luca's face turned grim. "The mafia king?" Isabella nodded, feeling a wave of fear wash over her. She knew what this meant. She knew that she couldn't keep her pregnancy a secret from Vincent. He would stop at nothing to claim his child. Luca's voice brought her back to reality. "You know what this means, don't you? You can't keep this a secret from him. He'll find out, and when he does... " Isabella's eyes flashed with determination. "I'll do whatever it takes to protect my child, Luca. I'll go to the ends of the earth to keep them safe from him." Luca's expression turned somber. "How long can you keep running, Isabella? You can't hide forever." Isabella's jaw set in determination. "As long as I'm alive, Luca. I'll never let him near my child." *** "WHERE IS MY CHILD, ISABELLA?" He thundered, his eyes blazing with fury. Isabella's cup fell from her hands, shattering on the floor. She felt like she was frozen in time, unable to move or speak. The man took a step closer, his eyes fixed on hers. "You've been hiding my child from me for seven years. It's time I took what's mine."
