Derek remembered my words about leaving him a celebration gift, but he never imagined I would dissolve our mate bond.

When he marked me, we had sworn a blood oath under the moon to remain faithful to each other for eternity. Sadly, he was the one who broke that promise first.

Derek finally understood why I had seemed so at peace that morning, why I had straightened his tie and watched him leave for his mating ceremony with another female.

Only complete despair could have created such indifference.

Derek clutched the dissolution agreement to his chest as days of suppressed emotion finally erupted. He howled and whimpered like an injured pup, his anguished cries echoing through the empty house.

"Olivia, I've lost you forever, haven't I? You're really leaving me, aren't you?" he sobbed, his voice breaking.

"Olivia, I was wrong. Please come back. This time, I swear I'll never abandon you again..."

But I would never answer him again.

By then, Emma and I had already settled in a small coasta

    Even Derek wasn't invincible. During his relentless search, one Alpha managed to break his leg in a vicious fight.Through this savage quest, he discovered unexpected truths from the whispered conversations of pack servants.He learned that Sarah had deliberately feigned severe morning sickness to prevent him from rescuing me. She'd twisted in phantom pain whenever he mentioned gathering warriors, clutching at her belly and pleading with those doe eyes that had always manipulated him so effectively.He discovered, through a drunken confession from one of Sarah's personal guards, that she had fabricated news of my death, leaving me to be tortured for over a year. She'd paid mercenaries to bring back false reports, had even procured a lock of hair resembling mine to seal the deception.Most horrifying of all, through the tear-filled confession of a young servant who could no longer bear the guilt, he learned that Emma had been deliberately imprisoned in the silver cage by Sarah.

    Derek finally saw through the wolf's true nature. He let out a bitter laugh that held no humor, only the painful recognition of his own blindness."Don't worry, I won't kill you," he said, his voice eerily calm after the storm of emotion. "I won't even separate you from Nathan."Hope flickered briefly in Sarah's eyes before he continued."From today forward, Nathan will be adopted by Olivia and me, while you will remain nothing but a lowly Omega in the pack.""He will never call you mother again. He will know exactly what you did to his true father's memory, to his Alpha, and to his Alpha's mate and daughter."Sarah's eyes widened in horror as Derek continued, his voice cold and unforgiving."If not for you, Olivia wouldn't have been tortured for a year, wouldn't have lost her hind leg and three fingers." His voice broke slightly at the mention of my wounds. "I'm going to lock you in the silver prison, cut off your paws, and leave you unable to care for yourself."Sarah began to sob,

    Unfortunately, his words came too late. I no longer cared."You come to say these things only after I've suffered so much? Derek, don't you find that laughable?" I asked, my voice steady despite the storm of emotions inside me."Do you think your promises can erase everything? The year of torture I endured? My broken leg? Our daughter locked in a cage like an animal? What kind of compensation could possibly make up for that? Why should I accept anything from you?"Derek stood speechless, desperately scrambling to explain."Olivia, it was Sarah who fabricated the news of your death. I truly believed you were gone. Otherwise, I would never have let you suffer like that—""Derek," I interrupted, "you're supposed to be the Alpha of a pack, yet all you do is blame females when things go wrong."The wind picked up, rustling through the herbs hanging from my shop. Derek's face fell as I continued."Yes, Sarah was terrible. But you were my mate. When you received news of my death, you didn't e

  • Alpha Chose Sister-in-Law, I Disappeared   1

    My alpha mate proclaimed me as his beloved Luna to the entire pack, but in fact his widowed sister-in-law was his true love.I was kidnapped by a hostile wolf pack. For an entire year, those wolves imprisoned and tortured me. But Derek never came for me.When I finally escaped and stumbled back to our territory, blood-soaked and broken, I discovered my daughter locked in the silver prison where rogue wolves were kept.She was being torn apart as food, her small body covered in wounds.Meanwhile, my mate—my pup's father—was joyfully celebrating the first birthday of his and Sarah's pup, announcing that Sarah's child would become the pack's heir.…I burst into the sacred altar grounds of the territory just as Derek was tenderly placing the ring—the symbol of the pack's Luna—onto Sarah's finger.In that same moment, he announced that in three days' time, they would officially proclaim Sarah's son as the pack's heir.Sarah cradled her one-year-old male pup in her arms, her wolf tail coili

    Behind me, the pack members' congratulatory voices rose again, praising Derek and Sarah as the greatest Alpha and Female Alpha pair.Inside, my heart had turned to ice.The old caretaker had once been a high-ranking soldier in the pack's elite force before retiring due to injury. He now worked at Derek's private residence and was fiercely loyal. Having served Derek for many years, he naturally recognized me. He had someone prepare clean clothes for me and escorted me to a guest room to wash up.I found this strange. Why a guest room?Ignoring the caretaker's attempts to stop me, I walked to the master bedroom door and pushed it open.The chamber that once belonged to Derek and me now contained not a single trace of my existence. Every decoration had been changed to match Sarah's preferences.Even our soul-bonding sculpture had been replaced with one of Derek and Sarah.The wolf who once vowed that he would be with me until our bones turned to ash had, in the end, changed.I stared at

    "Luna Olivia, please don't be rash!" the old caretaker's voice cracked with panic. "This arrangement was specifically set up by Lady Sarah. Whenever the Alpha heir sees the wolf fight, he gets very excited.""If you harm it, Lady Sarah and the Alpha heir will be upset, and the Alpha will become angry," the old caretaker pleaded nervously.I looked at my daughter's mangled body, then back at the caretaker. The coward couldn't even meet my eyes."So Derek allows this monster to stay just so it could torment his own daughter?" My voice was deadly calm.I ignored the caretaker's warnings. The moment the rogue wolf lunged toward us, my claws shattered its skull.Still not satisfied, I tore through the entire prison cell, reducing it to ruins.Derek rushed over when he heard the commotion, immediately starting with accusations:"Olivia, how could you cause such a disturbance the moment you return? Are you trying to make the pack members suspicious?"His face tightened as he noticed the dead

    Derek watched Sarah's retreating figure with concern, then turned to glare at me with undisguised anger:"Olivia, is this how you've raised our daughter? Teaching her to lie so young, always picking on her aunt? Is she going to bully her little brother next?!"His words cut deeper than any physical wound. After everything we'd endured, he was still taking Sarah's side."My brother died too young. Sarah has no one to rely on but me," he continued, his voice rising. "Why can't you two just accept her? You're being completely unreasonable!"Without even acknowledging the wounds covering both Emma and me, he turned and rushed after Sarah.Emma stared at her father's disappearing figure, her large wolf eyes filled with longing and sadness."Mom, is it because I'm a she-wolf that Dad prefers my little brother and Aunt Sarah? He doesn't like us because I'm not a boy? I'm sorry, Mom. This is all my fault."Despite being slapped by her father, a wolf pup's instinct made it impossible for her to

    "I need to give Nathan and Sarah legitimate status so they won't be criticized by the pack members," Derek continued, his eyes pleading for understanding."It's just a ceremony for show, meant only for outsiders. Behind closed doors, you and I are the true bonded mates." His hand caressed my cheek. "You've always been so understanding. This won't bother you, right?"So this was his plan—to continue telling everyone I was 'dead' while I lived forever in the shadows? Hidden away like a shameful secret?Derek roughly began pulling at my clothes, his movements urgent and possessive."Olivia, Sarah has already given birth to a male pup. We need to catch up. It's time for you to bear me another male warrior."His fur still carried the scent of nursing milk mixed with Sarah's distinctive maternal odor. It wasn't hard to imagine what the two of them had been doing together.My stomach churned with disgust. Just then, Sarah's wolf maid came running in, breathless with urgency:"Alpha! Lady Sara

    Sarah's eyes filled with tears, making her look vulnerable and pitiful. Unfortunately for her, Derek was no longer susceptible to her manipulations."You are only my sister-in-law," he said coldly. "And that's all you will ever be."His hands clenched into fists as he continued, "Olivia is nothing like what you described. She never spoke a single word against you. Even when I repeatedly put her in danger for your sake, when she nearly lost her life, she never complained once. What right do you have to claim she resented you?"The pack members gathered around them, shocked at the Alpha's sudden change of heart. Some nodded in agreement, while others whispered among themselves."Just days ago, you should have been the one kidnapped. Olivia took your place and suffered in your stead. Instead of showing gratitude, you speak of her this way? Do you have no conscience at all?"This was the first time Derek had ever spoken so harshly to Sarah. The words poured out of him, years of suppressed

    Derek clutched the vision stone with a death grip, his eyes bloodshot and wild.The stone's audio was loud enough for everyone to hear, and combined with the caretaker's announcement, the pack members quickly understood what had happened.Murmurs swept through the crowd as they turned to stare at Sarah, their expressions shifting from respect to suspicion."So that disheveled female wolf really was Olivia?" someone whispered loudly. "Why didn't the Alpha acknowledge her then?"A bitter laugh came from an older pack member. "Why do you think? So he could be with his sister-in-law without his mate causing problems. Didn't want his precious Sarah to be upset. Did you hear Olivia's tone? She sounded like she'd lost all will to live. Must have given up hope on that worthless Alpha.""What kind of wolf claims his mate is dead when she's actually alive?" hissed another. "Then gets involved with his brother's widow and has the audacity to hold a mating ceremony? Disgusting."Derek froze, the p

    His razor-sharp claws hovered at my throat, a heartbeat away from slicing through my skin. In that final moment, Derek finally appeared.He hadn't brought money or resources as promised. Instead, he had assembled dozens of wolf warriors who quickly overwhelmed our captors, leaving them bloodied on the ground.So he had never gone to gather the ransom at all. He had simply been busy comforting Sarah.On the journey back, he bandaged my wounded hand while offering weak apologies."Olivia, I know you've suffered, but Sarah isn't like you. She's fragile. She couldn't handle that kind of situation."His fingers worked gently on my wounds, but his words cut deeper than any claw."If anything happened to her, I couldn't face my dead brother. You understand me, don't you?"I was exhausted by his pathetic excuses. Too tired to argue, I simply waved my uninjured hand dismissively."You don't need to explain. I understand everything. I won't take it personally."His face brightened with relief, a

    The next morning, Sarah sought me out, inviting me to go shopping as an apology for not taking proper care of Emma. She claimed she wanted to buy gifts to make amends.She looped her arm through Derek's, playing the perfect mate."Derek, you'll need to come along to pay. Olivia has suffered so much this past year, we need to properly compensate her."She carried herself with all the authority of the pack's Female Alpha, as if the position had always been hers.When I remained silent, Derek's face darkened with displeasure."Olivia, Sarah's trying to be nice. You and Emma upset her so much yesterday that her milk ducts became blocked. She was in pain all night, yet she's not holding it against you. Don't be so ungrateful."What he conveniently forgot was that werewolves have exceptional hearing. I had endured listening to their intimate activities all night long.The memory of those revolting sounds made my stomach turn, but I eventually nodded in agreement, if only to end this charade.
