Sky Island Arc

I've dated Andrew Carter, my surgeon boyfriend, for seven years. We plan 66 weddings, and he cancels every single one for Selena Merrick. The first time, Selena botched a patient's injection. "Wait for me," he said, and I waited the entire day. The second time, she slipped and fell in the shower. We were just about to exchange rings, but he ditched me at the altar without a second thought, leaving me to face the ridicule from the guests. For all 65 weddings I held, Selena always found an excuse to lure Andrew away. At the 65th wedding, she claimed her dog was dying and threatened to take her life. My mom collapsed from stress-induced angina, yet Andrew still ran to Selena. Afterward, he kneels and begs us for forgiveness. "Selena is just a pitiful orphan, but you're the one I'll always love," he declares. I give him one last chance, yet he never fails to disappoint me. That is it. I break up with Andrew and join Doctors without Borders. Goodbye. Let's never meet again.

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."

My boyfriend was considered a prince charming in our social circle, but during my birthday celebration on a yacht, he pushed me into the sea just to impress another girl from our university, making fun of my fear of water. Little did he know, I suffered from aquaphobia. As a result, I ended up in the ICU while he managed to win over the heart of the campus belle. When I finally woke up, he was by my side apologizing, but I had no clue who he was. "Excuse me, do I know you?" I asked, completely baffled. The doctor explained that I had lost part of my memory. However, he kept insisting he was my boyfriend. I couldn't help but argue back, "No way! My boyfriend is Raleigh Landon!" Everyone knew Raleigh Landon was his sworn enemy.

My father, the Beta of our pack, had sworn our bloodline to serve the Alpha King, Andrew Amadeus. By tradition, I was destined to be his mate. The night before our mating ceremony, I risked everything to save my stepsister, Emma Hughes, crossing into rogue territory—Wild Nest. I fought fiercely but was overpowered. At the ceremony, a cursed projection stone revealed my assault by the rogues. The pack recoiled in disgust. Andrew, seething with rage, rejected me and marked Emma instead, making her Luna Queen. To them, I was a disgrace, unworthy of an Alpha’s mark. As they called for my exile, Andrew’s younger brother, Anthony Amadeus, stepped forward. "Sophia Hughes, I have loved you in silence. By the name of the moon, I vow to be your mate for eternity." His words saved me. A year later, the healer told me I could finally carry a pup. Overjoyed, I rushed to find Anthony—only to overhear a chilling conversation. "Anthony, we helped the rogues infiltrate, lured Sophia to Wild Nest, and spread the video. She trusts you now… did we make a mistake?" He sighed. "For Emma to become Queen, Sophia had to be sacrificed. But it doesn’t matter—I’ll spend my life making it up to her." Betrayal cut deeper than any wound. My suffering had been planned. But if they thought I was broken, they had underestimated me. I would carve my own fate—with claws bared.

Aku dan Andrew, pacarku yang seorang dokter bedah sudah berpacaran selama tujuh tahun. Kami bahkan pernah mengadakan 66 kali pernikahan, tapi setiap kali Andrew selalu membatalkannya karena Selena. Pertama kali, Selena salah menyuntikkan obat ke pasien. Andrew menyuruhku menunggunya dan aku pun menunggunya seharian penuh. Kedua kalinya, Selena terpeleset saat mandi. Saat itu kami sudah siap bertukar cincin, tapi Andrew langsung pergi tanpa berpikir panjang, meninggalkanku begitu saja di depan para tamu yang menertawakanku. Begitulah seterusnya. Aku terus mengadakan 65 kali pernikahan dan setiap kali Selena selalu punya alasan untuk memanggil Andrew pergi. Di pernikahan ke-65, Selena bilang anjingnya sakit parah dan dia juga ingin bunuh diri dengan melompat dari gedung. Penyakit jantung ibuku sampai kambuh sangking marahnya, tapi tetap saja kami tak bisa menahan Andrew. Setelah itu, Andrew berlutut memohon agar keluargaku memaafkannya. Dia bilang dirinya hanya merasa kasihan pada Selena yang seorang yatim piatu dan akulah satu-satunya orang yang paling dia cintai. Aku memberinya kesempatan terakhir, tapi dia kembali mengecewakanku. Akhirnya, aku benar-benar menyerah. Aku memilih berpisah dengan Andrew dan bergabung dengan tim dokter lintas batas internasional. Mulai sekarang, kami pun tidak perlu bertemu lagi.

I died on the day I was supposed to form a mate bond with Alpha Ragnar. Since I did not show up, he went ahead and performed the ceremony with his childhood sweetheart, Nina. “Selena has already been marked by me, yet she still threw caution to the wind and cheated with a rogue. Her betrayal has brought shame upon us. She’s not worthy of being the pack’s Luna!” With just one careless sentence, Ragnar made my family a disgrace of the pack. My father was once a great warrior of the pack. He lost his wolf saving Ragnar, only to be drowned in a river as punishment for supposedly failing to discipline his own daughter. Our blood bond allowed me to feel his pain. However, I had been locked in a sealed, abandoned interrogation room—a silver cage. The mechanism inside was accidentally triggered, and thick poisonous gas filled the space. It killed me slowly and painfully. After my soul left my body, I appeared beside Ragnar and heard him say to Nina, “Thanks for your help today. If Selena hadn’t acted so foolishly, you wouldn’t have had to take her place in the ceremony. Ever since I marked her, she’s been getting bolder, thinking my affection gives her a free pass. How dare she skip such an important ceremony?!” However, the noble Alpha Ragnar seemed to have forgotten something. Just seven days ago, he threw me into a silver cage meant only for the most dangerous criminals to appease Nina. “You hurt Nina, so you must face the consequences. Take these three days to reflect. If you still won't admit your mistake, then don’t even think about ever leaving this place for the rest of your life.” I waited three days and then three more. The poisonous gas and silver ate away at my body, corroding me from the outside in. I endured seven days of unbearable pain before I finally died. When my body was found, it had been so ravaged by the poison that I was unrecognizable. As for the arrogant Alpha? He had completely lost his mind.

Seven years ago, it was love at first sight when I met Lucas Yates, who was still a nameless thug at the time. For him, I chose to leave my wealthy family. After seven years of dating, he throws me a grand wedding the day he finally becomes the head of Devil's Advocate, a mafia organization. On the day of our wedding, his childhood friend, Yelena Jackman, crashes the venue. She confesses her love for Lucas, but he rejects her without any hesitation, vowing he will only ever love me in this life. Just as we're exchanging rings, Lucas' enemies show up to cause trouble. When he sees the gun pointing at me, he lunges forward to protect me without a second thought. Yelena, who should have run, takes three bullets while protecting Lucas and falls into a coma due to severe blood loss. Overwhelmed by guilt, Lucas sends her to the best hospital in the world. I have the same blood type as Yelena, so in the attempt to save her life, I donate so much blood that I go into shock. Guilt leaves me with sleepless nights. Every day, I pray she'll wake up. I'm even willing to look after her for the rest of my life if I have to. Lucas keeps comforting me, saying that I don't need to feel so guilty, as Yelena did all of it of her own volition. He says he'll take up the responsibility of making it up to her. I'm extremely grateful to Yelena for saving Lucas and allowing me to have such a wonderful husband. However, on the day of our third wedding anniversary, I receive a mysterious message. "Lucille, you shameless homewrecker! I'm his lawfully wedded wife! If you know what's good for you, you'd better scram and go as far away as you can. If you don't believe me, you can always head to City Hall to see just who is registered as Lucas' lawful wife!"

Mon père est le Bêta de la meute, et notre famille possède une tradition qui consiste à marier une fille à un Roi Alpha. La veille du mariage, pour sauver ma demi-sœur, j'entre dans le Nid Sauvage, un lieu de rassemblement pour les loups solitaires. Le lendemain, pendant la cérémonie de lien de compagnon, une vidéo de moi en train d'être violée par des loups solitaires est montrée au public. Le roi Alpha, furieux, refuse de me marquer, et ma demi-sœur Emma devient la Luna à ma place. Je deviens une salope aux yeux des membres de la meute, et ils exigent que je sois exilée pour satisfaire les loups solitaires jour et nuit, oubliant que je subis leurs représailles pour protéger la meute ! Alors que je souffre au point de m'effondrer, Antoine, le frère du roi Alpha, me fait la cour : « Sophie, je t'ai toujours aimée en silence, et au nom de la lune, j'aimerais être ton compagnon permanent. » Très émue, je choisis de devenir sa compagne. Un an après le mariage, le médecin de la meute me dit que je pourrais concevoir un petit loup-garou. Je suis impatiente de voir Antoine, mais je surprends accidentellement une conversation entre lui et son subordonné. « Antoine, à l'époque, on a aidé les loups solitaires à s'introduire dans la meute, et a utilisé Emma pour piéger Sophie dans le Nid Sauvage, et a même laissé les loups solitaires diffuser la vidéo où elle était violée. Sophie est si gentille avec toi maintenant, nous avons fait quelque chose de mal à ce moment-là, non ? » Antoine soupire : « Il fallait la sacrifier pour qu'Emma puisse épouser mon frère. » « Elle a tellement souffert, je passerai ma vie à me rattraper. »
