Backwards Isn't an Option
In the hunting ground, my mate, Liam Graham, abandons me while I am pregnant and severely injured from a beast attack. He rushes off carrying Beta Eva Monroe, who only has a scratch on her palm.
I cry out for him to stay, but he says Eva needs medical attention more than I do.
As blood pours between my legs, I anxiously swallow the prenatal pills Liam gave me. But in the next second, my child is gone forever.
It turns out the pills are not meant to protect my baby but a slow-acting poison that kills it.
At that moment, Eva proudly sends me a message.
"Being his Beta means I get the Alpha's care anytime I want."
Feeling my body grow weaker from the miscarriage, I glance one last time at the baby, who has become a pool of blood.
At that moment, I want nothing more. At night, I reach out to my father through a mind link.
"Dad, I agree to become the heir of the Howl of the Moon Pack."
