One Life, One Fate
I was dismembered and thrown into an abandoned warehouse.
Before my consciousness faded away, I used the last bit of my strength to send a message via mind link to Timothy Russell, the Alpha heir that I had loved for six years.
"Timothy, I'm in so much pain..."
The next second, a cold mental barrier crashed down between us, cutting off all communication.
That was his response to me.
I knew I had been too presumptuous. I had disturbed him while he was at an auction helping his foster sister, Rochell Lucas.
The moment my heart stopped beating, Timothy, who was helping Rochell put on a bracelet, felt his chest cave in.
While everyone watched, the future Alpha knelt on the ground as countless bone-deep wounds appeared across his body out of nowhere.
He convulsed in agony, screaming my name.
Only then did everyone notice a glowing blood pact mark appearing on his tongue.
I remembered.
Once upon a time, he swore an oath to the moon. "If I ever betray Leah, every bit of suffering she has endured will return to me tenfold."
