Intoxicated by my scent, Theo claimed me like crazy. When I woke up, he coldly agreed to hold the marking ceremony. But shortly after the marking, Theo frequently visited European packs, and stayed away for five years. I raised our son Alex alone, waiting for him at the pack. But he never came come and just told me he didn’t like puppies. Until Alex's birthday party, I saw a video where someone asked him: "Theo, what's your happiest moment?"

Pour son premier amour, Jean m'a abandonnée trois fois à l'autel. La première fois, Cécile a menacé de se jeter d'un immeuble. La deuxième fois, elle est partie à l'étranger. La troisième fois, elle a envoyé un message disant qu'elle allait accepter le mariage arrangé par sa famille. Jean, d'habitude si calme et maître de lui, a paniqué. Il a laissé derrière lui une salle pleine d'invités et a fait de moi une risée une fois de plus. Je l'ai appelé : « Jean, si tu ne reviens pas aujourd'hui, je vais épouser quelqu'un d'autre. » Il a ri. « Cécile est jeune, ça passe encore, mais toi, à ton âge, tu joues aussi à ce jeu ? » J'ai serré mon téléphone. Il savait donc depuis le début que c'était une petite ruse de Cécile, mais il avait choisi de la laisser faire. À ce moment-là, mon cœur s'est finalement brisé. Plus tard, après avoir enfin réconforté son amour d'enfance, il s'est enfin souvenu de moi. « Choisis une date pour refaire le mariage, sois tranquille, cette fois ce sera encore plus grandiose. » L'homme à mes côtés l'a interrompu en souriant : « Excuse-moi, ma femme et moi devons embarquer pour notre vol. »
