Chapter 5

"I got it! You want to beg me to help you, don't you?" Alpha Raymond said casually.

If he were a normal father when he heard that his daughter was in danger, he would surely be worried and anxious, but Alpha Raymond was as calm as if I was not his daughter.

His cold attitude made me also freeze and choke. I nodded hesitantly. Then I suddenly remembered my mother, so I added, "I would like you to help me listen to my mother's information. She helped me escape. I'm afraid Alpha David will get angry and punish her. I don't want anything to happen to her."

"I will do all your requests, but you must meet one condition." Alpha Raymond said seriously.

I frowned and asked, "What condition?"

My father immediately replied, "You must replace Violet in marrying Darian, son of Alpha Harold of the Dark Moon pack."

I was so shocked that I was speechless. Then, anger rose in my heart. I angrily said, "What the hell are you talking about? Why should I replace her by marrying someone I don't even know? I am also your daughter. How can you treat me like that?"

I can accept him being cold to me, not loving me, and accepting that he treats me unfairly, but I can't accept that he wants me to replace Violet. Why should I be her shadow? Why do I have to live under her cover?

I stood up, about to leave, but my father's words stopped me.

"Think about it carefully. If you leave this door, I will immediately take you back to the Dead Forest. If you agree to my terms, I will help you and your mother." He said calmly.

I couldn't believe my biological father could be so cold and cruel to me. I shouldn't have come back here.

While I remained motionless, he added to convince me, "Don't think marrying Darian is a bad thing. He is the son of Alpha, with noble status. It is an honor for you to be married to him."

"I will leave that honor to Violet," I said back.

My father's face immediately darkened. He shouted, "Don't be insolent!"

I pursed my lips, deeply frustrated.

"You only have this one path to choose from. You want to marry a young, handsome man or be the mistress of an older man older than your father. Fools also know how to choose well." He said with a stern attitude.

I clenched my fist, my nails digging into my flesh until it bled, but I didn't feel any pain because my heart felt more pain now.

He kept convincing me, "You can rest assured. You don't have to live with Darian for the rest of your life. After a year of marriage, you can divorce him. At that time, you can go anywhere; Albert and David will not dare to do anything to you. I will give you an amount large enough to live a peaceful life…."

My father talked a lot; I couldn't remember what he promised because I knew he probably wouldn't.

After a while, I let go of my hand. The sound of blood dripping onto the floor. Alpha Raymond looked down at the bloodstain and frowned. I can almost read his mind right now. He's annoyed that the floor is dirty and not worried about my injury.

I sat down in my old spot, bowed my head, and whispered, "I agree to your terms."

Although I didn't look at him, I guess he was very excited and satisfied. His voice was softer, "Magnificent! You've made a wise choice. Anything else you ask for? I will fulfill all your requests if they are within my means."

I thought momentarily and then said, "I would like more information about the person I am marrying."

Raymond quickly agreed, "Okay!"

We have nothing more to say to each other. After that, I returned to my room exhausted.

I may feel humiliated by today's choice, but it's better than having to be the mistress of that perverted older man Albert. As my father said, I hope to divorce Darian in a year.

…

The following day, the servant gave me a document. The content in the document was information about Darian, Violet's fiance.

Actually, I knew this name before in the Dead Forest pack. My classmates often talk about this man named Darian.

He is the strongest werewolf of the generation of young werewolves. Since he was six years old, he has had wolves, a rare phenomenon, and people consider it a good omen. He started going to the battlefield when he was twelve years old. Despite his young age, he is very talented. The battles he participates in are all triumphant, giving Dark Moon colossal loot.

When he was sixteen years old, he led an army of three hundred soldiers to attack the base of a Rogue army. Rogues numbered more than a thousand, but in one night, they all became corpses at his feet. After that battle, his fame reverberated throughout all the Packs.

After that, he became more and more powerful. When they heard his name, the werewolves on the battlefield became scared and trembled. It's also thanks to him that Dark Moon firmly stands as the most substantial Pack.

He's like a legend. Glory seemed never to end, but when he was twenty, his wolf suddenly disappeared. At that time, he was participating in a war battle. Because he couldn't transform into a wolf, he was so severely injured that he almost died. It was his first defeat, and after that, he never fought anymore.

There are many rumors about his wolf spirit disappearing, but all are just rumors; no one has confirmed why he lost the ability to turn into a wolf.

The information I read was similar to what I had heard before, so I was not surprised. I was just wondering why Violet was engaged to Darian.

I understand why Alpha Raymond and Selena want me to replace Violet. Now that Darian has become a werewolf without a wolf, Violet is the most potent female warrior in the White Mountain pack. They want Violet to have a glorious and robust future, so they don't want Violet to marry a useless person.

I came here at a time when they were looking for a way to save Violet from a bad marriage, so I became Violet's replacement.

Perhaps lousy luck is clinging to me, so I always fall into ironic situations like now.
