Toby remained stunned for a long time after seeing the scars.As he reluctantly decided to call Ethan, he suddenly started howling wildly, having finally realized that my wolf had been killed by wolfsbane."I didn't know! I really didn't know! Why didn't you tell me that you had been injected with wolfsbane?"He called Ethan again, but when he spoke, his tone was more gentle than it ever had been before. "As long as you return Joyce to me, you'll have priority on all the pack's resources from now on."Ethan cursed and jeered at him in equal measure. "Who would want to stay in the pack of an Alpha who committed murder? I've already left the pack."And by the way, the new Luna you married has had ten previous abortions, which eventually resulted in the removal of her uterus. I've already sent you the abortion reports, so you can check them on your phone."Afterward, Toby stood blankly for a while, lost in his thoughts.It was at that moment that Cecilia ran up to him. "Someone is
"Why's Joyce not howling anymore, that jealous bitch?" Toby Wagner asked casually."Could something have happened to Luna Joyce, Alpha?" Barney Easton, Toby's butler and one of the betas in his pack, asked hesitantly. "Her screams last night were heartbreaking, and I haven't heard her pup make any noise in a long time…"Toby took a sip of his coffee before snorting disapprovingly. "I know Joyce better than any of you. She's deliberately howling mournfully so that you'll hear her, because she thinks that she'll be forgiven if she just acts pitiful! I must teach her a lesson this time so that she won't dare mess with Cissy in the future!"Barney glanced toward the basement before saying quietly, "But Luna Joyce's pup is weak, and the healer mentioned that the pup needs to be hospitalized regularly."Toby paused in his drinking, looking hesitant. "Is that so?"As he stirred his coffee with a spoon, a trace of hesitation flashed through his eyes. "Alright. Fine. Let Luna Joyce make me
Furthermore, I had no milk with which to feed my pup due to being deprived of food, so I had slashed my wrists until the blood poured freely to sustain my pup.I managed to keep my pup alive for two days with my blood, but my pup still ended up dying in my arms.My wrist, which was exposed down to the bone, had bled all over the basement's floorboards.As sticky blood coagulated in my hair, I hugged my pup's cold corpse in my arms as I too breathed my last, my eyes open and unseeing.I wondered how Toby would react upon coming across this scene, but for the moment, he was only concerned with embracing Cecilia.His tone was filled with guilt and self-blame as he exclaimed, "It's my fault! I shouldn't have let Joyce appear in front of you with her pup in her arms and make you sad! I swear that this is the last time I'll let that she-wolf bear my pups!"In the future, you'll never see a pregnant she-wolf in my house ever again. You don't know this, but Joyce actually lied to me in a
Toby couldn't hold back any longer and kissed Cecilia, breathing heavily as she moaned softly into the kiss.As they exchanged fervent kisses, their hands started wandering frantically over each other's bodies.However, Cecilia shoved a panting Toby away at the last moment. "We can't do this. Luna Joyce is the fated mate assigned to you by the Moon Goddess. The two of you are already married, and she even bore you a pup. I don't want to be the third party who betrays my pack's Luna!"Toby's eyes were burning with desire as he cried out hoarsely, "Although we're fated mates assigned by the Moon Goddess, you're my true love! I definitely won't let your sincerity down!"I'll reject Joyce, because I'll only be worthy of touching someone as pure as you after cleaning my own slate!"He then placed a kiss on her forehead without hesitation, as if he were protecting a rare and valuable treasure.There was a look of satisfaction on Cecilia's face. Toby didn't see it, but I did.She said
Barney swallowed and continued to report, "Luna Joyce and her pup are no longer breathing."There was a trace of panic in Toby's voice, but just as I tried to listen more closely, his voice hardened again. "She's just pretending! I'd certainly like to see just how long she can keep up the act!"She's survived harsher conditions in the wild! She's just holding her breath to scare all of you! Summon a healer, because I'm going to expose her tricks right in her face!"Barney stared at him with wide eyes. "But Alpha Toby, Luna Joyce's pup isn't breathing anymore either."Toby interrupted him impatiently. "I'm the Alpha here! Who exactly do you take orders from?""Yes, Alpha. I'll go get a healer to come over right now," Barney said quickly before sighing helplessly and leaving the room.Cecilia leaned into him pliantly. "Don't be mad, Alpha. Anger is bad for health. Luna Joyce just wants you to pity her."Toby's voice, sharp with defensiveness, cut in, "Joyce has a way of manipulati
With a deafening crash, the basement door was thrown open.My body, which had been leaning against the door, tumbled to the side due to gravity when the door opened. The movement also dislodged my pup, who finally left my embrace and rolled into a corner.Thick layers of dust covered my stiff corpse, making it look like a mummy.Ethan frowned heavily at the sight, but he still performed a routine examination of me and my pup's vitals out of occupational habit.The cloying stench of blood hit Toby with such force that he instinctively recoiled, his hand flying to his nose. The oppressive heat had already begun its grim work, accelerating the decay of our corpses. He stood outside the basement, refusing to take another step inside."What the heck is Joyce doing? She's stunk up the whole basement!" he complained.Barney lowered his head, not daring to make a sound, and simply glanced at Ethan from time to time.Ethan took off his gloves with a solemn expression on his face. "It's c
After seeing the blood all over the walls and floor, the stiff pup in the corner, and my deathly pale face connected to a weirdly postured body, Cecilia screamed shrilly and leaped into Toby's arms in fright.Toby hugged her and said in a gentle tone, "Don't be afraid, Cissy. Those are just dummies they're using as a stand-in for their act. They think that they can deceive me with this! That bitch dares to collude with these people to take over my pack just because she gave birth to an heir!He glared viciously at Barney and Ethan, adding, "I'm going to reject my mate bond with her tomorrow! I'm not going to acknowledge the pup she birthed as my heir either! Her pup will never be my heir!"As for you two, if you still want to remain within the pack, you'd better advise Joyce to come back and apologize to Cissy immediately!""She's right in front of you, well and truly dead! Where do you expect us to look for her?" Ethan yelled angrily."We grew up together, Ethan, so I don't want
Toby called a pack meeting and announced the good news of his engagement to Cecilia with great joy, and proceeded to publicly show off his affection for Cecilia.The elders who knew of his past with Cecilia hurried over to offer him their blessings. They were of the opinion that the title of Luna should always be inherited by a she-wolf within the same pack.It was only Ethan whose words seemed out of place given the occasion. "Have you found Joyce alive yet?"Toby simply replied, "Why should I continue to look for her when you've hidden her away?"The meaning behind Toby's words was obvious, which led to unending criticism and accusations directed at me from the elders.As if it weren't enough, they also began to spread rumors about my frequent hospital visits in the past."I heard that Joyce used to be a Beta, but I've never seen a Beta who gets sick so easily.""It's no wonder that Alpha Toby was smitten with her back then! It looks like she has plenty of experience seducing

Ethan's grip on Toby's collar tightened, his knuckles bone-white as his furious voice lashed out. "You slandered her innocence, and your refusal to accept your role in her death is just an act of avoidance! You're desperately trying to escape the truth that you personally killed your own Luna and heir!"The corpse in the basement is Joyce! She and her pup died together!"He punctuated his words by releasing Toby's collar. His words were a deliberate taunt as he added, "The only reason I haven't reported Luna Joyce's death is because I wanted to witness your downfall, to see you crumble when the truth finally broke you."Do you even dare let other healers perform an autopsy on the corpse, Toby? Or are you simply afraid to receive confirmation that the corpses are indeed Joyce and her pup?"Toby suddenly stumbled a few steps as if he had lost all strength before finding his footing again.When he returned to the villa, Cecilia had already changed into a sexy set of nightclothes
