The Alpha Guardian’s Dying Mate
"Sure, you've given me some. But baby, what good is that tiny bit of cash in a city like this? I lost it all ages ago..."

"When exactly are you planning to stop gambling?!" I glared at her, my body trembling slightly from a toxic mix of sheer fury and extreme physical weakness.
My wolf whimpered in pure despair, while my heart felt nothing but a numb, bottomless well of disgust.
"Just until I make a comeback! The second I draw a good hand and win back everything I've lost, I swear to the Moon Goddess, I'll quit for good!" The distinct, crazed greed of a degenerate gambler flashed wildly in her eyes.
